Star Wars opening crawl

When the iconic Star Wars opening crawl appeared at the start of Ahsoka episode one, I let out an audible gasp. Sure, the font is a different color and seems a little off in terms of letter spacing, but this is some old-school, Star Wars shit. The crawl fills in some narrative gaps for those who haven’t seen the animated series, and helps Ahsoka feel like it’s on the same level as a big-budget film within this universe, not just a throwaway TV show like, say, The Book of Boba Fett. I said it.
