It has to be flashbacks, but who knows the idiot redos of the movie establish that he somehow never aged in 30 years

Live Action Grand Inquisitor and Fifth Brother woohoo


Also, McGregor’s face looks thinner, starting to look more like Alec Guiness

Pretty much confirmed to be a one-off there at the end. Which is fine by me. There should be more mini/limited series.

Hard pass. I will never forgive Hayden Christiansen for what he did to Darth Vader.

Hayden isn’t a bad actor tbh

Not his fault if his lines were crimgy AF

He actually did a good job playing a conflicted individual, that’s bot easy to di

He gave the absolute worst acting performance ever put on camera. I’d honestly rank Tommy Wiseau in The Room as better acting than Hayden in the prequels.

I think you have Hayden mixed up with the voice actor from Clone Wars

[ChumpDumper]

I'll give Hayden a chance. Portman acted like absolute dogshit in the prequels too and we all know she can be pretty decent with the right script and direction. Only McGregor and Jackson overcame the Lucas effect IMO.

I'm glad there is a different showrunner this time around. Someday they need to have a series that has nothing to do with Tatooine.

[lefty]

Hayden’s chemistry with McGregor is undeniable though
His acting in scenes with McGregor was mich better than in any other scene, maybe he was more comfortable working with him

Lol was thinking the same thing. All the planets of a Galaxy to choose from and everything keeps coming back to this desert planet

I mean it's ok for a few things but c'mon. Boba has way better places to go

[Neo.]

hayden didn't do a good job obviously but it wasn't his decisions that his character hated sand and wished he could wish his feelings away. he also didn't choose himself for the role, he simply auditioned and did what he was paid to do. lucas deserves 98% of the blame, and hayden gets the other 2 for not having higher standards for himself

People who criticize the sequel trilogy (rightfully so) but then praise the prequels must be really young, or have a terrible memory. The prequels have some of the most awkward dialogue and shittiest acting you will ever find in a big budget movie.

Prequels aren’t perfect but they were still good imo
Revenge of the Sith was great

I didn’t like the prequels the first tine I watched them but they have grown on me

Acting wasn’t bad, it was the dialogue lines that were awful, even the best actors in the history would have looked bad with those lines

And Filoni made those movies even better with The Clone Wars


The sequels? well those were terrible, shitty writing, even worse dialogue
“Somehow Palpatine has returned “ 🤮

“They fly now”

And Oscar Isaac is an excellent actor tbh

The sequels never happened as far as I’m concerned :lol

[leemajors]

At least Hayden will have the suit on the whole time :lol

The concepts and ideas in the prequels is great, but the execution is as bad as it gets in moviemaking. It’s an unwatchable abomination of CGI, greenscreens, and wooden acting with dialogue that sounds like it was written by an AI bot.

The exact opposite is true for the sequel trilogy - great execution in filmmaking, but stupid unoriginal ideas (sans parts of The Last Jedi, which has great ideas, but the neckbeards couldn’t handle their precious manbaby Luke being treated like less than a god).

Yeah the CGI was horrible in the prequels

I agree on the sequels, they were visually striking in theaters but the rest was shit

tbh if the explanation instead was that luke used his power from the other end of the galaxy to save leia in that moment, the majority of the people who hated TLJ would instead have loved it and thought it was the greatest scene ever

Kumail will be its downfall! That dude is a total snoozefest on screen no matter the show/movie. He is a shit actor in everything.

Agree on Maul, that last duel with Obi on Tatooine was a great conclusion

But it’s the change of tone that has me worried

Hopefully it won’t be too light

[lefty]

I’m loving how this show is drawing from both the Kenobi comics and Leia comics

Also :
Leia : gets rescued in A New Hope, complains
Leia : gets rescued in the Kenobi show, complains

btw, nice cameo by Morrison as a clone vet

But at leat he has his Rebels sith eyes, unlike in the trailers

i won't ever get the people in charge of star wars. i get that its a show for kids, and a money grab, so the writing will always be dogshit, but then they're willing to show a storm trooper get cut in half and have obi dragged through fire by vader.

obi being a bitch all of the sudden is gimmicky af. maybe he shouldn't dress like a jedi when they're looking for jedis, vader is suddenly out maneuvered by a robot and rando person with a gun?

The prequels were the worst written stories on Earth, so don’t be shocked if they aren’t making chicken salad out of it here.

That Inquisitor character is garbage. We didn't wait 20 years to see her.

Jarjar was an abomination and there was too much romance in AOTC, and fuck all that CGIfest

There was NO romance in AOTC. There was borderline sexual assault with zero chemistry and cringy as hell dialogue.

Mixed feelings on Obi Wan. Him babysitting a 10-year-old Leia while being chased by that one inquisitor is not what I expected it to be. And I'm not talking about the saber fight specifically, but that entire scene with Vader was really underwhelming.

I was hoping more for something like Yoda went through in Clone Wars preparing himself to be able to project from the cosmic force after death, but I guess that will get rushed if it is there at all.

I wouldn't expect Obi Wan to put up much of a fight against peak Vader especially showing what they had of him so far, but I don't think it was really necessary to show it? I enjoyed the first two episodes way more

I guess that's my point. The saber fight wasn't necessary at all. It should have been more of an emotional meeting for Obi-Wan than what we got.

[Dick Jones]

lol why didn’t Vader just walk around the fire? Or better yet, he just forced pushed to blow out the fire like 10 seconds earlier, but now he’s like “welp nothing to be done about this fire, I guess we’ll just let Obi Wan escape” :lol After the first episode I had my hopes up that it would at least be decent, but nope this thing is an absolute turd sandwich.

[leemajors]

The fourth episode was good.

[lefty]

Pissed off Vader walking into the fortress manu militari to punish Reva was awesome :lol
I also liked how Obi used the same diversion move on those 2 stormtroopers that he used in ANH on those 2 other stormtroopers; we all knew he was going to do it because fan service, but still it was a nice touch

It think we'll have another Kenobi vs Vader rematch in episode 6; in ANH. Vader tells Obi the last time they met, Obi was the master and Vader the learner.

Also, McGregor's acting has been on point

[Blake]

Haven't seen it but I'm not liking them putting Vader in a Disney channel setting like this. Ben v DV seems meant for the big screen.

[benefactor]

Im three episodes in. This is fucking terrible.:lol

The main problem with this series is that it's pointless. We know where all the main characters end up, and there has been sufficient content with all the movies/cartoons to fill in any gaps. There's nothing that could've been done in this series that was surprising or offered up new insight to the characters.

Disney had an opportunity when they bought the Star Wars franchise to explore something new. But they're dead set on rehashing the same old shit. Mandalorian is kind of new, but it's mainly been a merchandising vehicle for baby Yoda, and they take every opportunity they can to squeeze in cartoon characters and a CGI Luke Skywalker. I wish they'd move away from the Skywalker timeline and write some original stories in a different setting.

The Acolyte sounds interesting. I am still looking forward to Ahsoka because I really want to see Thrawn live action, and want to know if she finds who she is looking for. I thought Rebels did a great job of some fan service but it wasn't driving the story. Will be interesting to see what Taika does with his movie too, he is completely uninterested in rehashing anything old

Ahsoka should be interesting

I saw the leaked teaser that was shown at the Star Wars event, Hera Syndulla was in there, and there was a shot of Sabine looking at the mural (depicting the team) that we saw at the end of the Rebels

Hes afraid of fire, and he doesn't like sand

[leemajors]

It was a little clunky at first overall (the series), but I though the last 3 episodes were fairly solid and I enjoyed the finale. There is no reason for another season though, they can use books/comics to fill in the rest.

He let Obi Wan escape because he thought that Obi wan was weak and should have put up a better fight. He was going to get to him eventually.

[lefty]

That re-rematch was very reminiscent of the Vader vs Ahsoka fight in SW Rebels

The finale had some great moments, but overall this show was a huge turd sandwich.

Yes, and Reva standing over Luke like Luke did over Ben Solo with saber out. Obi and Vader with some good earthbending too

[Dick Jones]

He was literally about to take him into custody five seconds earlier.

Same thing when he force pulls a ship into the ground, then immediately forgets the force powers he just used and lets the other ship go. Just absolute dogcrap writing.

[Dick Jones]

And obviously screw anyone who used this as an excuse to be racist, but still can we acknowledge that the 3rd Sister is one of the dumbest, worst written characters in Star Wars history?

[Dick Jones]

And finally, Qui-Gon must really be pissed that suddenly taking a lightsaber to the stomach is just super easy to recover from :lol

Obviously those who watched Rebels know knew Grand Inquisitor wasn't dead

[Proxy]

easily the worst shit star wars has ever made

[Proxy]

Vader can force grab a fuckin space ship as it's boosting away but can't jump over waist high fire lol

Jedi becoming earth benders suddenly was pretty cheesy

Vader and Obi leaving each other alive when they could've just ended it multiple times

Farmers holding a sith off with random trash laying around the house

Obi dressing as a jedi when the empire is searching for jedi

erasing the fact that obi and anakin were jedi masters and having them both act like retards

glass in an underwater military facility not being bullet proof

[lefty]

Actually Reva was not a Sith and she was wounded

[leemajors]

I agree with some of that, but I still enjoyed it. Anakin also always acted like a retard

[Xevious]

Weak overall, but they stuck the landing imo. Even though I know it was a ripoff, I liked the rematch and Obi-Wan calling him "Darth" at the end. The Third Sister character was a collosal waste of screen time.

[Joseph Kony]

best part was the final battle between Kenobi and Vader. otherwise this series sucked fat balls and was completely fucking pointless. added absolutely nothing to the story of Star Wars imo

[Spurminator]

An Obi-Wan series wasn't a bad idea, and I could even get on board with an Obi+Leia series. Stupid to bring Vader into it, IMO. If you accept this as canon, now when they battle in IV it's the first time in (checks watch) 7 years? Big deal.

I was content with the idea that Obi-Wan spent 20ish boring years hiding out in a Tatooine cave and checking in on Luke. But the people need their memberberries.

It sucks for me to see Vader, one of the greatest movie villains of all time, as a secondary character on a Disney channel series like this.

The writers here are weak minded fools that felt they needed that crutch.

Im three episodes in. This is fucking terrible.:lol

I had to stop watching. It's that stupid and boring.
