History Narm / STARWARS

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bE9cPGyDnRw A deleted scene]] featured a squad of traitorous clones attempting to pass themselves off as Jedi, but their disguise only consists of cloaks with no attempt whatsoever to hide that they all have the same face. One wonders how the scene got as far as actually being filmed before the writers finally realized this was too silly, especially coming on the heels of a scene as dark as Order 66.

* Palpatine telling Anakin to "[[MemeticMutation DEW IT]]" (execute Dooku) sounds like his evil voice inhibitor malfunctioned and let Darth Sidious out.

->'''Vader:''' You were warned… what defeat… would bring! I. Will Tolerate… your weakness… no longer!

* Obi-Wan sneaks Leia out of an Imperial fortress while he's dressed as an Imperial officer, with her hidden under a stolen coat. The moment is played for drama, despite Obi-Wan trying to pass past a garrison while pretending to be a four-legged officer who hasn't shaved in months. It can bring the scene from ''[[Film/AustinPowers Austin Powers in Goldmember]]'' where Austin walks on top of Mini-Me's shoulders to infiltrate a submarine in mind.

* A rule on the show was that Anakin and Grievous could never see each other, since otherwise their banter in ''Revenge of the Sith'' about meeting for the first time wouldn’t make any sense. The stories where they’re both in the same battle thus go to lengths to have them never directly encounter each other, and these efforts start looking increasingly silly. One time Anakin coincidentally rounds a corner every time Grievous follows him down a hallway, and in a deleted arc Anakin was always hidden from Grievous’s view by an enormous crystal between them. Somehow they managed to sustain this game of peekaboo for three years.

* Due to using the Respeecher AI to recreate James Earl Jones' voice, nearly ever sentence spoken by Vader has unnecessary [[PunctuatedForEmphasis punctuations for emphasis]].

* The fourth episode spends a significant amount of time focusing on the heroes mourning the death of their ally Wade, staring grimly ahead and musing on the cost of being soldiers in war. It would be tragic, except that the audience never got to know Wade beyond a single scene where he’s a random RedShirt who’s barely even visible through his speeder’s windshield, so the sudden gravitas instead feels absurd.

* Obi-Wan's repeated shouts of "Leia, no! ''Leia!''" for a good solid minute or two makes his chase of her go from tense to something that wouldn't be out of place in a pantomime or comedy. [[/folder]]

* Ever since the prequels, the franchise has had an issue where the entire galaxy seemed to completely forget about the existence of the Jedi ridiculously quickly, but it's typically a minor enough plot element that it's easy to ignore. Unfortunately, Season 2 of this show puts it front and center by being built around trying to find the Jedi, making it impossible not to think about how this would be like, as one review put it, people in 2020 talking about the mysterious, possibly mythical people called the Music/NewKidsOnTheBlock.
* There is absolutely zero effort to disguise Temuera Morrison's pot belly, and the fact that his armor is a tad too small on him as a result is somewhat laughable. Add to that the fact that Boba doesn't have the same excuse as his actor (age), as Boba is canonically only 41, has been recovering from wounds sustained from the Sarlacc, AND has been living a hard, lonesome life in the Tatooine desert. You've gotta wonder just ''where'' he got the belly from. Morrison would later admit that he saw a lot of the ridiculing of his physique and began working hard to get in better shape due to all the jokes made at his expense.

* Drash has a lot of lines that are supposed to sound important or like good advice, but Sophie Thatcher delivers them without a hint of nuance and she comes across more as combative and reeking of DullSurprise.
* In Chapter 4, Boba snarling "Do you know who I am? I am Boba Fett" sounds intimidating, except in that scene he’s inexplicably boasting to a little LEP droid he happened to encounter. This also comes a few minutes before he says he needs to hide his identity and keep pretending he’s dead.
* Boba's pronunciation of Tatooine as "ta-tween" rather than the more common "ta-too-een."
* Skad's UnnecessaryCombatRoll in the finale.

* The chase scene in Part I involving Leia and the bounty hunters. While you can make the case that they're unfamiliar with the terrain and that she's using obstacles to her advantage, the bounty hunters couldn't chase down a ten-year-old girl who wasn't running all that fast, and all three of them seemed to only be jogging half the time, which really undercuts the franticness of the scene. At one point a bounty hunter even runs into a branch that was in clear view ahead of her for several yards.
** Tying in to the above, Obi-Wan's repeated shouts of "Leia, no! ''Leia!''" for a good solid minute or two makes his chase of her go from tense to something that wouldn't be out of place in a pantomime or comedy. Then there's his off-screen teleportation from the top of a tall building to street level within about 30 seconds, which gets especially odd as the last shot of him was his having to use all his focus to [[spoiler:catch Leia with the Force]].
** The Third Sister's rapid, agile parkour ''looks'' cool at first... Until the reveal that she's actually barely covered any ground at all.
** The Third Sister loses her temper and tries to bisect Nari, but the Grand Inquistor stops her blade with the force. This causes her lightsaber to catch in his arm. Nari reacts to what should be an impossibly painful wound by [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction standing still as a statue, quietly groaning, then running off with a slightly uncomfortable look on his face.]]
** In Part III Obi-Wan struggles with the controls of a large laser gate to turn it off, then opts to shoot the console, deactivating the gate. Only, the subsequent wide shot shows that the gate was only good for stopping large vehicles, and he could have simply walked around it.

* Darth Vader has a volcano lair castle tower. That bears repeating, for emphasis: Darth Vader lives in a jet black spire castle straddling a live volcano with a lava-fall flowing out of the front gate. For some, it comes across as... cliche. It gets worse when you know it's based on an early idea for ''Empire Strikes Back'' which was discarded as too silly.
* When Vader punishes Krennic with a Force Choke, he quips: “be careful not to choke on your aspirations, Director”, in an unexpectedly punny moment. Some viewers even described it as Vader making a “dad joke”.

* The European Spanish ''Star Wars'' dubs are famous for having some excellent acting and making a good job of covering bad performances and plot holes in the franchise, but the one for ''Rogue One'', while having a lot of good points too, seems to be the inevitable occasional exception (which was followed by some similar weak points in ''The Rise of Skywalker'' as said above).Felicity Jones's voice actress, Lourdes Fabrés, generally does it well, but every time Jyn speaks in the Rebel council, it gets botched by suddenly sounding incredibly childish in key moments.

* Dryden Voss' yacht is full of corruption and decadence, treated in all seriousness until showing that the baritone singer, Luleo Primoc, is a weird green creature in a formaldehyde flask who sings through the liquid like a drunk uncle.
