hey all,
just caught the premiere of the new tv show "ahsoka," and i gotta say, it was actually pretty good. the storyline got me hooked, and the production quality was on point. rosario dawson's portrayal of ahsoka was spot-on as well.
but i can't help but notice a trend that's been happening across shows lately. it seems like every new series has to feature a strong, physically capable woman as the lead. don't get me wrong, i'm all for strong characters regardless of gender, but it feels like it's becoming formulaic.
i'm a big star wars fan, but i've got to confess, i haven't seen the cartoons. yeah, i know, it's probably sacrilege for a star wars fan, but there it is.
now, as i was watching "ahsoka," i kept hearing about this character called admiral thrawn. i have no idea who that is. can someone give me the lowdown? i've heard the name thrown around (no pun intended), but i'm in the dark here. is thrawn from the cartoons?
