I really liked Ahsoka, but I’m really not sure how I feel about how Sabine supposedly can strengthen her connection to the Force enough to become a Jedi when she clearly doesn’t have much of a connection to the Force. If Disney opens up the Force like this, then what’s to stop potentially anyone and everyone in the galaxy from becoming as powerful as a Jedi, a Sith or something worse? I guess I’m fine with it if you argue everyone’s strength of connection to the Force is on a spectrum and some, who are already more connected to it, can with practice develop Jedi-like skills, but what do you all think?

I should say, I’m sure there are implied rules in this- like most people’s ability to strengthen their connect to the Force is relatively fixed/inert, but implied rules like this just feel like excuses. I guess, overall, I’m not sure how much I love this new concept in Star Wars.

I wouldn’t get too bogged down in ‘rules’ with Star Wars or any other fantasy storyline. Gotta just enjoy it for what it is. I do agree though that some things need to stay consistent over time.

[Lando Calrissian]

That’s fair. I really don’t try to get too focused on the rules of a story arc, but I do think it’s important to be consistent and that’s what I’m really questioning with this turn of events/new development in ‘Ahsoka’.

I agree. What Disney is doing is fairly problematic if they don’t at least have a good explanation for Sabine’s ability to get stronger in the Force. Not a big issue yet but easily could become a problem if it isn’t clarified how some people can grow stronger in the Force but most people can’t

[TK-421]

I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. Just like some Jedi become stronger than others, I think any Force-sensitive person can grow in the Force. Sabine was always Force sensitive, just maybe not as much as most Jedi

[Lando Calrissian]

I hope you’re right, but I still have my reservations about how this could get complicated quickly

[Reyna Fett]

I think she might have always been force-sensitive and because the Mandalorians don’t really like Jedi they just never noticed because she wasn’t that powerful. At least I hope.(that’s my interpretation)I do like that they say that everyone has a connection to the Force because it’s ‘an energy field created by all living things’ so I guess it makes sense. But only Force-sensitives could use the Force.  It’s kinda confusing so I hope they explain it further a give it reasonable rules.

Hey guys, my understanding of things is that someone’s sensitivity to the force I correspondent to their Midi-chlorian count, however this doesn’t limit how powerful of a Jedi/Sith they can be. For example, Obi-Wan Kenobi had an unusually low Midi-chlorian count, but still became one of the strongest Jedi. I would agree that someone’s connection to the force can be strengthened, and I see Sabine’s new abilities in the force as an extreme case of this.

An idea I had recently, was that what if Sabine’s newfound aptitude for the force could be due to Peridea.
So we already know that before journeying to our favourite extra-galactic planet Sabine was unable to use the force (at least use it to physically manipulate her surroundings) as seen when she tries and fails to move the cup while on Ahsoka’s T6. However, when she arrives on peridea, a planet which we know has a connection to the Mortis Gods and by extension the force itself, she is able to pull her lightsaber back into her hand and force push Ezra onto Thrawn’s Star Destroyer. It is not unreasonable to think that the planet’s connection to the force could have amplified Sabine’s abilities. Additionally, when Anakin, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka found themselves on Mortis during the Clone Wars, Kenobi remarks that the planet is strong in the force. As both Mortis and Peridea have a connection to the Mortis Gods, it can be assumed that they would both possess a similar connection to the force.
This is a theory I thought of which could explain Sabine’s sudden ability to use the force in such an influential way despite never displaying such power before.
