**Beware SPOILERS** Obi-Wan Kenobi Series on Disney+ **Beware SPOILERS**

[Asta]

How old is Mando at this point in time?

Probably about 20.

Old enough to mount a rescue attempt!

You know HT are going to release these versions or do some hybrid instead of doing the proper ones.

Clear plastic robes and headsculpt casing.

 

[a-dev]

Ohhh, just give these writers time

It seems others have already pointed out some of the very lonnng list of **** (glaring logic errors, bad FX, massive inconsistencies) in this ep.

But my fave aspect of this ep is that the whole thing was arranged a beat-for-beat sequence homage to..... The Last Jedi?

 

[TaliBane]

...I personally am waiting for the obligatory appearance of Reva as a 'space ghost' end credits...

I'm preeeetty sure that Reva won't be a force ghost any time soon... if ya know what I mean.

But when she is - after 5 Disney+ series and 3-4 movie appearances - we'll be ready to look at her force ghost, smile and shed that sly tear for all she was.

 

[TaliBane]

The sets in this show are just so ******* boring. The city in Ep2 was the best we got but another than that it’s just been bland, muted, lifeless landscapes and caves.

BORING.

You mean the Star Trek cave filled with Battlestar Galactica '78 extras?

This set was about as "TV" as I've seen in Disney SW, and that includes the BOBF Flintstones Viva Las Vegas streets.

Not helped by bad video game CGI when Vader does his thing on the ship... (um, I'm still trying to figure out wtf actually happened in that monent...)

OG BSG was exactly what came to my mind!


I was thinking this is a pretty good homage to the '70s era of the OT. Except it also looked like it was on '70s TV budget.

 

[TaliBane]

Asta, you are on a serious mega-roll.

 

[Mandible]

The writers/decision makers on this show need to hang their heads in utter shame; it's just getting worse and worse with each episode.

The most humane thing to do is put it (and us) out of its misery. Nothing makes sense. The continuity with Ep4 is sooooo out the window, it ridiculous.

I wish I could just leave SW behind. It's like a bad addiction that I can't break in the deluded hope that something good will one day happen. Disney have turned into a soulless company of everything by committee, there's literally no auteurs left anymore.

Lucas must be absolutely reeling to see his legacy, both company and SW, dragged down to this level of Z-grade trash. The prequels weren't very good, but compared to this Disney garbage, they're Citizen Kane.

 

[TaliBane]

"Master Qui-gon - just relax, full gruesome lightsaber impalement is very much a survivable minor wound!"

"Someone get a bandage over to table 6 - Greedo just took a laser blast right through the stomach again, but he'll fine like last time."

"I said to TAKE THE ARMOR OFF, dumb*** - it must be interacting with the laser bolt and killing us even with a non-direct hit!"

 

[chrisstbh]

Well Reva wasn’t wrong, Tala would die for nothing .

 

[TaliBane]

Now Vader's footstamp on Ben's robe in ANH makes perfect sense - when you've run Reva completely through with a lightsaber and she easily survives (for season 2!,) like a minor cut to the leg, you really don't wanna take any chances.

 

[Otomofan]

Show has piss poor production values, godawful excuse for a "script," and terrible actors delivering terrible lines terribly.

But just because it had a NEW scene of Obi Wan sparring with Anakin, it's gonna have every jerkoff on yotube being like this guy.



I think this episode finally showcases why Reva is truly awful: it's her delivery. It's just BAD BAD BAD. The way she screams "FIIIREEE!!" Instead of a nice, subtle "You may fire when ready." and all the rest of her terrible overacting is why she's so terrible in this role. She just doesn't get it. She screams, she over-acts, she struts around weirdly. She's clearly not playing anyone that ever existed in the Star Wars universe.

I'm sure the nerds will love more Over Powered Vader scenes too. I don't know...I just never needed to see stuff like that. Breaks my suspension of disbelief I had of him in the original trilogy.

Whatever, I hate everything. Everyone knows.

 

[TaliBane]

There was a TON of tension in that Reva/Vader lightsaber battle though - a character Disney wouldn't DARE kill versus a character they can't kill due to ANH. Logic vs Twitter.... who will WIN?! Edge of the seat stuff, folks.

 

[Mandible]

Not in a million ******* years would Vader have let her live and just walk off.

 

[Dave_W]

I guess I'm not as cool and edgy as you guys. I loved it. Vader ripping the ship apart was He does suck at killing Reva though, stabbed her twice! Maybe she has 6 stomachs?

 

[Prime Clone]

Not in a million ******* years would Vader have let her live and just walk off.

This is the age of benevolent Vader... and Fett.
