If you haven’t seen The Expanse then you’re doing yourself a disservice. Also yes, Amos is my favorite character.

    Yeah exactly, Star Wars is very light on the science part of scifi. Ahsoka was pretty boring though imo, I actually got GOT season 8 vibes from it - not from the writing so much (although it was a bit weak), but the way everything seemed so excessively choreographed. It’s like every step, every position, every arm fold is directed, leaving no room for the actors to actually act.

    But yeah, Star Wars gets a pass for being cool. Ad Astra annoyed the hell out of me, though, every rocket was going straight up from one place directly to another.

      I enjoyed Ahsoka mainly because it built on the more fringe themes from Clone Wars and Rebels (the witches) and continued the Rebels character’s stories. I agree though that the choreography was pretty stilted. Maybe it’s a side effect of filming in the infinity stages they’ve been doing most of these shows in… lower budget, or maybe less room for standard camera angles, who knows.

      I had to Google Ad Astra, that’s how little it had an impact on me, lol. I remember seeing it in theaters, and the moon cowboy chase, but that’s about it.

            Probably just as well!

            They were flying from the moon to Mars, but on the way stopped at a space station for reasons (because space physics says the station is at a static point in space in between Earth and Mars, and the rocket has no issue slowing down to rendezvous and speeding up again). Inside all the people were dead and some gorillas they were experimenting on had broken loose. It was so ridiculous and completely inconsequential to the film lol, and only 4 minutes long.
