Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi

No joke, I had zero expectations from this and I have come away from it with my jaw on the ground, my eyes wide and tears. This was top shelf Star Wars. I am NOT going to give spoilers, just want to say that if you are a Star Wars fan, drop everything and go and watch this right now.

The way the story interweaved the prequel trilogy and showed the decent of the republic into corruption, Dooku's origin story essentially and served as a companion piece to The Clone Wars series as well and bridged into essentially the start of Rebels...and kind of the Ahsoka novel (again no spoilers here), well let's just say this will be essential viewing on any Star Wars chronology re-watch.

This, legit, is among the best Star Wars ever produced, seriously. Don't take my word for it, go watch it, I will be for the third time back to back to back.

This is awesome and gives you a great story from the past. Done in the same manor as Star Wars The Clone Wars. If this is the way Star Wars is now heading under Dave Feloni, I feel it's in great hands and I therefore can't wait for another full length movie.

To see where and why some of the Jedi came from and why they were the way the were is intriguing indeed. The six episodes of this short series will want you demanding more, I loved every episode of it.

Did the stories needed to be told No! But I'm thankful that they were.

Honestly do yourself a favour sit down and enjoy those short stories of the past Jedi.

Dave Filoni strikes again. Short stories in a real Star Wars manner. Maybe simple storylines, but follows the same strong story principle of the StarWars Clone wars. For people who haven't Seen Star Wars clone wars series this is a nice start to begin with.

It's enjoyable, gives character depth, not complicated to follow but still explains a lot of backstories that the main films do not.

Also the series visual style is definitely fine to see. The only criminal thing about these series, is that it was way to short. Of course it was announced. But still You want more of this after seeing.

StarWars at its peak. No more, no less. 9 out of 10.

WOW. I really was going into this not expecting much, I'm sure most of us saw the short episode run times and were disappointed at first. But it really really works all together as complete, hour and 15 minute feature.

This show had everything, a much darker tone (imo one of the darkest we've seen in a while), together with great music, a few well placed cameos (my favourite in episode 5 and a very exciting voice cameo) and a fantastically written story, filling in a lot of gaps between especially the prequel trilogy.

My only gripe is that 1 of the arcs in my opinion could have been an AMAZING live action show or series. It's a story we've all wanted and I feel slightly disappointed we didn't get it in live action. Although animation is a completely valid form of story telling.

Dave please give us more!!

It will fill your soul - and satisfy your thirst for quality Star Wars movies.

Not rushed at all, unfolding at a slow, ideal pace, this series will leave you in a meditative state, like the good movies of old, captivating your mind and soul. Because this is what Star Wars is about - the Force, and the Jedi, wielders of the Force, become living embodiments of the Living Force. And this series will return your mind/attention to this essence of SW.

It also fills some gaps left by the first trilogy, revealing some key names and characters from the first episodes.

All in all, Filoni did it again - only this time it's even better (on a deeper tone) than the Clone Wars series.
