This Is Madness Call Out
Star Wars this is madness returned for a fourth year this year.
There have been a few votes that a lot of people are worried about.
Bib Fortuna beat Jabba the Hutt. This could have been a one off but he went from loosing 77-23 to winning 53-47. There obviously something going wrong with this.
I know that Reddit and Wookiepedia have had a fall out but if all of Reddit act wrongly on the Official Star Wars website then the fans of Star Wars will be disappointed with who wins the competition.
Bib Fortuna and Jar Jar Binks to not deserve to win This Is Madness through people who don't even like Star Wars voting because of this fall out.
Thank You

Star Wars Season 1: A Brief Grading System
Star Wars rebels is over but here is how I feel it went
Note: If I was grading this in comparison to Star wars the Clone Wars then the highest score would be a 4 but here I am judging them in comparison to each other
1. Part 1: Spark of a Rebellion - Quite a bad introduction to the rebels saga 2/5
2. Part 2: Spark of a Rebellion - Wookie mania. Kanan introduces himself as a Jedi 3/5
3. Droids in Distress - Always good to see C 3P0 and R2 D2 4/5
4. Fighter Flight - Stealing a TIE Fighter is the only thing that happens (and getting some fruit) 1/5
5. Rise of the Old Masters - The first lightsaber duel of the series 5/5
6. Breaking Ranks - Ezra does tend to make things a little boring 2/5
7. Out of Darkness - Aah! A monster is coming from the Darkness 1/5
8. Part 1: Empire Day - Okay tail. Poor security from the Imperial Forces 3/5
9. Part 2: Gathering Forces - A Big Huge beast attacking the Inquisitor 3/5
10. Path of a Jedi - Return of Yoda 4/5
11. Idiot's Array - Lando makes this tail more pleasing, without him it would be worse 4/5
12. Vision of Hope - A Good guy is now a bad guy 3/5
13. Part 1: Call to Action - Grand Moff Tarkin arrives and imminently captures a jedi 5/5
14. Part 2: Rebel Resolve - Not as good sequel 3/5
15. Part 3: Fire Across the Galaxy - Ahsoka is Fulcrum! Darth Vader! The Inquisitor Dead! so many shocks, thank goodness Bail Organa wasn't Fulcrum 5/5
I know this reviews were brief but they gave my opinion in a short way.
Ordering the Episodes
