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

There was an instantly recognizable earth thrift shop rug on the floor in the hidden bunker, where the Jedi hide. Explain that!

Times are hard?

ANH is full of fun things like that --

Lex Luthor in 1978's Superman somehow got ahold of a Death Star console.

Lex also somehow got ahold of Ben's truck to put his Kryptonite in.

The alien that Luke sells his speeder to used to terrorize Dr Smith and Will in Lost in Space.

It goes on and on...

I totally agree.

There's no way I couldn't like a show that delivers on everything you mention above.

I can complain about Reva but so what, she's just another lame TV character in the tradition of Bea Arthur or the girl from the Ewok movies.

They've more than delivered with all the Legacy characters (Obi-Wan, Vader, Bail, Owen, even a young Leia) plus the aesthetic and tone as you say and that's what counts. I'm actually quite liking the Asian Inquisitor and wish he had Reva's role.

It's quite amazing to be seeing Ewan Obi-Wan who looks and sounds like he walked straight out of the PT interact with suited Vader who looks and sounds like he walked straight out of the OT.

How bizarre that depressed Obi-Wan with no beskar and no jetpack can still take out a group of Stormtroopers while Fett and all his weapons, armor and (3!) bodyguards got knocked on his *** by some assassins who weren't even wielding any firearms, lol.

That's because Kenobi knows how to use a blaster and about firing at point blank range. Also Kenobi uses weapons to take out a security barricade unlike Fett with doors.

Yep. Thank God he didn't try to rescue Leia by winning the Stormtroopers' respect, lol.

Overall I liked it. This has been IMO the best of the SW shows.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

I just want a Vader show. He's the best character in SW.

I'd be down for this but it's all in the execution. He pretty much becomes an anti-hero in his own show.

They seriously couldn't have staged this reunion encounter in a more interesting (and better lit) location?

The Mandalorian seems to be the only show that got any budget at all or at least they did a much better job with what they had.

I thought the new LED screens meant that budget wouldn't be an issue. The use of the screens in The Mandalorian look fantastic.

Does that character have a name?

Inquisitor Oddjob.

Does that character have a name?

Fifth Brother.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Fifth Brother.

That's it? No name like "Reva"?

That's it? No name like "Reva"?

Not as of yet no.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Strange. They name everything in Star Wars. Perhaps it will be revealed in this show?

He doesn't even have a species. A bunch of the Inquisitors don't have names, even the Grand Inquisitor.

I assume they wipe away all your past identity as a method of control... except Reva I guess.

Why is she so special? Is it the braids?
