Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld

Let me get this out of the way. I am a huge Star Wars fan, but like most people have not liked everything that Disney has done. I loved tales of the Jedi, but in all honesty hated tales of the empire. So I was worried, yet cautiously optimistic about tales of the underworld.

However, I was pleasantly surprised. Without giving any spoilers, the Asajj Ventress storyline I found fine. Nothing amazing, but it was not a character assassination like they did with Barris. Some cool fights, but overall pretty forgettable.

Then I get to Bane. From the very start, you could see they were much more inspired. Banes backstory was super interesting, and you could see the character development throughout, and it crescendos perfectly with the final episode. I really really hope we get more Bane content from these creators, they absolutely killed it! I eagerly anticipate next years "tales" series!

Wasn't expecting much from Tales of the Underworld, but I was pleasantly surprised. For a short-form miniseries, it delivers solid storytelling, cool visuals, and a darker tone that fits the underworld vibe of Star Wars perfectly.

Episodes 4-6 stood out to me the most-there's a deeper look into a familiar character that longtime fans will enjoy. The overall plot is decent, though some twists are easy to predict if you're paying attention. Still, it works and doesn't feel lazy.

It starts fast, ends fast, and never overstays its welcome. Not a game-changer, but definitely worth watching-especially if you're into the criminal side of the galaxy.

I didn't know this was coming out today and I'm usually late to be one of the first to review anything so that's a nice surprise.

The Tales of the .... has become some of my favorite new star wars media. The level of character development it's top notch. I loved what they did in Tales of the Empire and Tales of the Jedi. Dave Filoni makes great stuff.

This was just a good story about one of Asajj Ventress's adventures and Cad Bane. I like the new stories of characters from Clone Wars. It's great seeing old characters on screen again. Even the little clip of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Quinlan together was awesome.

I love what Dave Filoni does, but this one and Tales of the Empire were not as good as, lets say, Tales of The Jedi. Why?

I was happy to see Asajj Ventress, but I was hoping to see a more important part of her life. Here, we don't get any special story, just a random episode in her life. To avoid giving any spoilers, I won't say what she's doing, but it's really nothing special. I wish we had more of Asajj, she's a great character.

I wasn't happy to see Cad Bane. For personal, subjective reasons, I don't like this character. A cowboy in a galaxy far far away? Anyway, I also don't think this character is so important that it needs his own story, and neither did Morgan Elsbeth in Tales of the Empire in my opinion. Tales of the Jedi presented us two very special characters: Dooko and Ahsoka. And now we get Morgan Elsbeth and Cad Bane. Some characters deserve a better presentation, showing their beginnings, just not these ones. Again, this is a personal, subjective opinion.

Getting back to Cad Bane, his story presented here is just not interesting. They could've come with a better, more interesting story.

Anyway, the "Tales" could come back with many interesting characters that deserve more presentation. Can't wait for the next one (if there will be one).

There little tales are usually ok, but could be better. They are far too short. They definitely need to be longer. With 10 episodes, with 5 episodes each for each characters storyline. At 20, 25 minutes long would be better. 3 episodes at 15 mins or less isn't enough for a story development. There is a lot of stories that could be told about asajj ventress. She is a very interesting character. Since clone wars finished. There is definitely room for a big story development. I wasn't keen on bad batch. It didn't interest me. We definitely need to get back to the routes of star wars. It's lost it's way.
