Darth Vader doesn't kill Obi-Wan when he can, then Obi-Wan doesn't kill Vader when he can. The whole story could have turned out differently if one of them had made a different decision and brought the matter to an end.
Special thanks for the musical accompaniment in this series and the appearance of Qui-Gon.
In general, the series is a three. By the last episodes, the series is gaining momentum, but still falls short of the expected level. Disney had a great opportunity to shoot a gorgeous series about one of the most beloved characters in the universe of stars, but they fucked it up and shot what they shot (((
Hands are tied by canon, but I wanted to hype on popular characters. That's how Obi-Wan was born. Initially, it seemed to be a completely different story, but they wanted to bring Vader together, so they called Christensen.
@j0ker123: It's not clear what the hell Christensen was here, except for a couple of scenes, anyone could be stuffed into a costume, even in the original he is voiced by the one who voiced him in the original trilogy
@Irish_Ethan: The most idiotic thing about this scenario is the key characters who seem to die, but don't.
OK, it worked in the movies, Anakin didn't die, he became Darth Vader. Luke, I'm your father and all that. And then the screenwriters used this technique so much that they took it to the extreme. There is no empathy when the hero "dies".: - Anakin "kills" Reva as a jungling, then again as a Third Sister. But no, she's still alive. Again. - Vader leaves Obi-Wan to die in a fire, but he ends up alive. He falls asleep with stones, with the same result. - Reva kills the Grand Inquisitor, but he is also alive. - Vader tells Obi-Wan that he killed Anakin himself, which, as we know from the movies, is also not true. - Obi-Wan once again leaves the dying Vader (he says out loud that there is nothing left of Anakin in him), but after a couple of minutes of screen time, he is calmly sitting on his throne in a new suit. - At the beginning of the series, the Third Sister threatens Owen, at the end of the season she fights with him. But in the denouement he is alive and well, he got off with an abrasion. - The third Sister raises the sword over the Hatch, but in the next scene he is also alive.
OK, we know from the movies that Obi-Wan, Luke and Vader will survive. But is the Third Sister there too? WTF? Maybe Tala from the rebels will miraculously survive in the end?
And to finish it off, the imperial destroyer pursues two small ships for a long time, firing all the guns, but to no avail. Common sense has gone out of the chat.
@angel_dust_: "Vader tells Obi-Wan that he killed Anakin himself, which, as we know from the movies, is also not true." and why is it not true? Anakin was a Jedi, becoming Vader, he killed everything human in himself, in fact, he killed Anakin's personality. This phrase was also probably drawn to "New Hope", where Kenobi tells Luke that his father was killed by Vader.
@Artmsnow: answering the question "why is it not true?". Vader did not kill Anakin because Anakin subsequently killed the Emperor and sacrificed himself.
The battle may have been good, apart from the blunt end, but shooting running around with a shaking camera was disappointing. Even from the copter, the picture is shaking
@Bart182: The season is just disgusting, but after this episode everything became a little better for me personally, only due to the fact that now after such an ending there is the potential to shoot season 2, where you can write any fascinating story for Obi-wan and try not to screw it up. I am very disappointed, but I still want to believe in the best
Any one will not work, this is Disney, everything there should be sterile and as tolerant as possible, and it is also important to show that the bad ones are also good and they can be pitied and given a chance, even after brutal murders
@Bart182: I agree. The actors, of course, are excellent, from the classic films of the franchise, the idea is good, but something is missing in the series.
@Bart182: The stupidest series about Kenobi. In one episode, Dark Vader has the strength to stop an entire ship with a wave of his hand. And almost tearing him apart. And before that, I chased Obi Wan for 10 years, met with him. Caught up. I made a path of fire on the ground, which no one can either bypass or extinguish (with such abilities), and then at the end of the series, I also got pizzas like a horse. It's like a meme with a picture that characterizes Vader. There are no words. That's what they've got in the feces, of course
Well, I don't even know what to watch more exciting, a normal duel between Obi-wan and Vader, or how Owen throws pots of seedlings into Revva. No kidding, both are great. It's nice to see the POWER of Vader's power again, Kenobi has already opened his third breath, it looked epic. But looking at the pain and guilt in Kenobi's eyes, his heart began to break. Let's leave it on the conscience of the creators that no one is finishing anyone off.
There were so many strong finales for Revva's story to make, but the creators of course took the easiest path, came up with a "redemption" for her, then to shove into a cloud of other projects.
His heart bled when Obi Wan asked Anakin for forgiveness. although the series is a C, but their duel just finished them off
and the fact that we both saw and heard Hayden in the role and Anakin in the flashback, and in this Darth Vader episode?? We've been blessed, no other way
The series turned out to be ambiguous, there were strange moments, but for the sake of such scenes as Obi Wan's fight with Darth Vader, you can close your eyes to almost all controversial points. Especially when part of the mask was destroyed - the pain and tears in Obi Wan's eyes, the mix of Anakin's voice/Darth, and that creepy smile of Anakin when he said "I did". The top stage.
I also liked Hello There, Palpatine's cameo, Qui-gon, the imperial march, and I also liked the moments with the little princess. I think the second season is needed at least to hear the dialogue between Obi Wan and Qui-gon about train the boy.
References to Ahsoka and the fight with Vader, the phrases then you'll die and the floor of the helmet. Unbelievable. Finally, Obi showed strength, stopped blaming himself, and saw Qui Gon. By the end, the series was rehabilitated 100%. It's a pity that the first episodes were not the same. But this series is just incredible. 🔥🔥🔥
@enigma_o: a similar conversation with Vader with a broken helmet, when Anakin looks through, but then Vader comes out completely. From 3:40 approximately: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eU9JRYzUBBg
@OrangeElephant: exactly, after sending the comment, I already remembered about the Rebels) It's a pity they didn't add a flashback from the Clone Wars and Ahsoka to the series. On the other hand, the series is about Kenobi, not Vader
A tortured and extremely ambiguous season turned out. There were interesting moments, but the extra characters, a lot of unnecessary dialogues and plot twists caused only boredom and disappointment with each new series. I hope there won't be a second season.
That's how many emotions there would have been from this battle, but they all fucked up when they brought them together in the "battle" earlier. Now you're looking and you're like, "Oh, well, fight again."
The series is still bad in the end, the last 2 episodes can not cover the entire cringe of what was in the first 4. The Reva Line is the worst thing in this series
Parallels with the broken Vader mask by Obi-Wan and Ahsoka make the heart hurt. The duel turned out to be quite good, despite the fact that the outcome of the confrontation is always clear
'You have failed, Master' — </3
Ian McDermid and Liam Neeson were also nice to see again. It's a pity that Qui-Gon only appeared at the end. The last episode plays on my emotions and a sense of nostalgia 100% :')
In general, the series is somehow about nothing, the history of such significant characters could be shown much better and more interesting. The line with the Inquisitors in general was superfluous. I hope that if they extend it for a second season, they will take into account the mistakes made here and find better writers. Such a cast of actors deserves the best realization of their characters
What a piece of shit… I'm not even afraid of tautology. To take and not finish off the enemy a second time... this is how much an old senile one needs to be. At the same time, Vader clearly suffers from dementia worse than Kenobi, that the whole series chases after him himself and misses or does not finish off every time. Such a cool Persian as the Grand Inquisitor was given a negligible amount of time, focusing on the anti-charismatic and incompetent Roar, which creates shit throughout the series and should have died long ago at the hands of the Grand Inquisitor. Actors don't try to act at all. There is not a single talented performance and not a single normal dialogue to take your heart. The drama doesn't work just because of the stupidity of what is happening. I don't understand what happened to such a talented Ewen. It's like he was forcibly dragged to be filmed. It's understandable why. The stories of the characters in general were simply taken and cut off as if they did not know what to do with them next. Where did the fifth brother go? Why didn't the Grand Inquisitor participate in the final battle? What happened to the rebels on the ship? Screenwriters are ***ing. In short, the series is bad by all criteria. The script is terrible, the directing is very weak (there was not a single beautiful landscape except for the familiar Mustafar), the cameraman had uterine rabies all season. I've only seen series from the CW worse than this. Disney bosses should be publicly executed for this.
And what was the series filmed for? For the sake of a duel that is inferior to both Vader and Luke's duels? (The original trilogy, for a moment, is over 40 years old) For the sake of a duel that had already culminated with Ahsoka in the Rebels? Or for half a minute of Hayden in the form of Vader? Yes, he was good, but was it worth it?
I liked the series. Fight fire, Obi-Wan finally pulled himself together and showed what he was capable of) And I understand that it was necessary for the characters to stay alive, but could there really be no other denouement other than "he turned around and just left"? Plus, the Reva line was clumsily closed.
Special thanks for Qui-Gon. And the scene where Owen lets Obi-Wan get to know Luke is also good.
Alas, in general, the series is really a three. There are a lot of questions about the motivation of actions, a lot of logical problems, frankly cringe scenes. Better, of course, than nothing at all, but we've been waiting for this series for so many years! It is a pity that the creators were unable to put in more effort.
it's amazing how foreign fans liked the series and the finale and how everyone shits here) I sincerely don't understand why
yes, I agree with shoals and sometimes cringe scenes, let's say
But the Roar arch? She's great. the surviving youngling, who made her way to the Inquisitors and dreams of taking revenge on them. this has never happened before, her story is shown well, the actress also played well)
in general, I do not understand the whole haight, I do not understand what everyone was waiting for and I am sure that it will be better from now on)
@Pandme: The most toxic community is the same. Inventing the fiercest scenario in the spirit of a third-grader's dream with a bunch of dusty fights and a ton of cameos so that everything would be like in the movies, but not like in the movies - this is our everything. And then they sit and shit what came out for the discrepancy between fantasy and reality.
The series is far from a masterpiece, and there is a lot of cringe, and outright rude Disney-style fanservice. But it's clearly not shit -10000/10. Average guy. In five years, they will remember with nostalgia and set an example, discussing a new project on ZV.
@Pandme: well, we also like prequels, unlike the Western community And the series is more like a fanfiction based on, if not for the actors from the films And even the duel between Vader and Ben was filmed a long time ago by fans of choreography 10 times better on YouTube)
@kiprian_zhurov: I disagree) if everyone didn't like their first battle so much, where Obi was running away, then they don't want to understand the character at all. This was shown to us, among other things, so that later we could see the fight where Obi almost killed Vader. I think all the battles here are quite justified and well staged
to be quite a fan, you can notice the movements-references to the prequels, where Ani and Obi fought shoulder to shoulder, and even a reference to Vader's battle with Luke
@Pandme: Okay, let's say you're right, I don't want to argue here, it's a matter of taste and personal perception. Why didn't Obi Wan kill Darth? Well, not really, but so that he himself thinks that he killed Or vice versa It's very stupid and it's just ridiculous to watch, as well as the third sister, who stupidly survived with a bandage and suddenly found herself on Tatooine. You see, when a product is good, you don't notice the disadvantages, when it's bad, even the smallest ones become noticeable.
@kiprian_zhurov: the prequels over the hill, among other things, do not like the wooden game of most of the cast, we fix it with dubbing) and this is not an isolated case)
Hello there, my main serial disappointment of the year, as they say. This series had so much potential, I had so many hopes for it, that now it's getting terribly insulting. We all know perfectly well how the story of each of the main characters will end, so we don't worry about them, but I'll say it anyway: it could have been better. The series is frankly weak, the creators follow the simplest paths, all the plot holes remain holes, to strain a little and do something unusual, intriguing, fresh is beyond their strength, apparently. I understand perfectly well that this is Star Wars, I know the shoals of old movies, but now there is an opportunity to bring something new and unusual to the series. In general, it's a disappointment. I still love this universe, I still looked at it with interest and emotion in some moments, I was still happy, but I honestly expected more.
Well. At the end of the six episodes, I can say this: a. Initially, I did not set myself the bar for the "best project of the decade" level, so I liked the series. Yes, there was a lot of stupidity and handiness, but (for me) there were a lot more pleasant moments. b. If there is a second season, I hope the show will change (at least) the scriptwriters. c. I don't know why, but I still have the feeling that this project is in the format of a film (for two and a half hours) It would have looked much better.
I really liked the scene of Obi-Wan and Vader fighting, and the display of Obi-Wan's full power. If it wasn't for the existing canon, he would have slaughtered Vader as a no-brainer.
The fight with Riva in the last series was much cooler and more epic, and Obi won with a classic side motivation in the form of flashbacks with Leia. Eh, years of waiting and such a meager result.
When he said Hello there, I thought, "It wasn't for nothing."
It's clear that you always want a little more. Ewen is a great professional. The screenwriter still admitted that he did not remember the events of 3/4 episodes of the saga, but still more often there were thoughts that he had not watched them, most of the events were nonsense. I think it was wrong to add Vader in principle, it spoils their meeting and duel in the Hope, even if we can say that the canon is not completely broken. Ben's relationship with Leia is also completely changed, although in Hope he was just an old man she didn't know. Basically, the scriptwriter and the director were basely trying to play the drama of possible death with characters who are alive 10 years after the events of the series, cheaply and stupidly.
In any case, thanks to the creators for the series (special thanks for firing the person responsible for the duels in The Last Jedi, even though they didn't seem to hire the one who staged them in the prequels, the waving of the lightsabers turned out to be generally good), thanks for Ewen, thanks for Hayden. Thanks especially for Ian's cameo, I adore him in this role! Thanks for Liam's cameo. McGregor and Christensen genuinely enjoyed filming, and as a fan, I enjoyed their shared scenes. There are a lot of references in them (Vader saying that I killed Anakin, a reference to Ben telling Luke), repetitions of phrases (a la Then I will do what I must - Then you will die, as before their duel on Mustafar), a whole flashback. I want to review their scenes in the voiceover of the studio that invited the prequel voice actors, I'll probably burst into tears with happiness. Still, a second season is not needed. Or let it be some kind of adventure purely for Ben, without the Jedi and the Skywalker family. Thanks for the adventure and the old cast. May the Force be with you, always.
The fight scene and the flower pots in the Roar are very gorgeous, I really want to believe that Disney will draw conclusions and season 2 will be no lower than the last two episodes!
Was it really Neeson and McDermid, as they say above? Somehow they don't look like themselves. It seemed to me that the left-hand dudes had their faces covered with filters, and they didn't do it very well.
@MadFisher: McDermid is listed in the credits, but I agree, he looks like a left-wing actor with a bad make-up of an old wreck. They seem to say about Neeson that there are some archival footage
in anticipation that the series will be remembered for: the return of your favorite characters with an interesting plot and an epic duel in reality: the escape of a girl in the woods , parkour on the roof and the death of Wade or xs, whatever his name is…
Based on the result of viewing. The idea was not bad in principle, but the implementation failed. If I understand correctly, Qui-gon did not appear to Obi-Wan, because Obi-Wan departed from the path of the Jedi back on Mustafar, when he left Anakin to die a painful death in order to avenge the murder of the Younglings. Further renunciation of the force and helping others also did not coincide with the path of the Jedi. Accordingly, when Obi Wan had already deliberately spared Vader, he returned to the path of the Jedi. In turn, Anakin has also undergone an evolution. If earlier he blamed anyone but himself for everything that happened, then in the final battle, Darth Vader, with his words "you didn't kill Anakin, I did it," admits that he is to blame for everything. And this is no longer typical of the dark side. Perhaps that's why Obi Wan spared him. In general, the arc of the character is tracked by both - it is clear that the scriptwriters were working. But the implementation, damn it, is clumsy. Especially the ending of the Inquisitor's story finished me off. Vader killed my friends, so I'm going to kill his son, whom he doesn't even know about. WTF? In general, the verdict is that the creators have a bright head. It's just a pity that the hands are growing out of the ass.
@id37499632: It's an interesting thought that in "You Didn't kill Anakin, I killed" Obi Wan saw a manifestation of the bright side! At that moment, it seemed to me that Vader said this with sadistic pleasure and pride, like "don't think that you defeated me then!!"
Thanks to the series and its creators for the fan service and the wonderful Leia, and no thanks for the African inquisitor, parkour in the style of Steve Carrell from "The Office" and many other things in the series.
A good end to the season, Obi Wan returned to the path of the Jedi, an epic battle with Vader, meeting with Luke, hugging with Leia))))) Well , and the appearance of Qui-Gon ...we are waiting for the continuation.
@Шайтан: Anakin killed her family, she wanted to kill his family, it's simple She survived just like any other character, only Qui-Gon died normally from a sword in the stomach.
@Шайтан: I also like that no one left a spaceship for her, but she just teleported to Tatooine. And instantly. And then Obi-Wan would jump to Tatooine from fuck-knows-where, even though in the movies they could fly for hours in hyperspace.
Oh, there's a new addition to the ranks of good foster fathers, Mando, move over, Owen's joining you. He seems to be trying to be strict, but it's clear that he loves Luke. And this is "he is mine" 💔
A great duel between Obi-Wan and Vader, with a demonstration of strength and skills. I really liked Vader with the half mask and "You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker, I did it."
Why Revva went to Tatooine, I still didn't understand. Revenge... To whom? Or did she realize that Luke was Anakin's child? And how did she figure it out? Just by a message on the communicator?
Overall, the experience of both battles (Vader–Obi-Wan and Revva–Owen and Beru) is marred by the knowledge that they will all live for at least another nine years. I understand that the scriptwriters' hands are tied by canon, but could the denouement have been made less clumsy? These eternal chasing after each other "I'll beat you", "no, I'll beat you", ending with the fact that they just leave the opponents unfinished – well, are you serious?
There are good scenes with Leia, although the whole line is out of the canon, but in the New Hope, Obi-Wan is an outsider to Leia. And it was nice to see the little cameos of Palpatine and Qui-Gon. With Qui-Gon, it was expected that he would only appear at the end.
As a result, the idea is good, the execution is so-so, the series came out weak, with a C. By the end, there are so many hardcore scenes that you don't pay attention to them anymore or you laugh instead of freaking out. They're talking about the second season here. Will he be there? If it's going to be the same as this one, then why not?
@olekolegovich: and she herself voiced the reason in the holo recording: "Many years ago, during the Clone Wars, you served my father. Now he needs help fighting the Empire. Unfortunately, I was unable to convey his request personally.
Specifically for Leia, he is an outsider, she knows about him only from her father's stories — enough to understand that he is a trusted person. There is nothing to indicate that she knows him or was familiar with him at one time. But the creators of the series bolt put it on🤷🏻♀️
What a disgusting story in its second nature... A story that focuses on fan service, in my opinion, just can't be good. To some extent, I understand those who are visited by our military pensioners (Tm), but I didn't get it. And yet. Imagine, there are hundreds of thousands of planets in the galaxy, and we have Tatooine in the third series. I'm sure he'll be in both Ahsoka and Andor, so the scenery will be lost.
Personally, I have a dream. That someday the film industry will take a look at the neighboring department, where they are riveting Marvel series, and realize that the Expanded Universe is also full of good comics. My favorite is the Knights of the Old Republic comic strip, and a couple more. Dreams.
The funny thing is that they couldn't even lift their ass and get the decorators/cgi specialists to make Lars' house look like Lars' house. There are blunders both in the exterior of the house and in the interior. At least the photos were viewed or the original was reviewed.
The people who gave 5 stars? What are you doing? This series is the main disappointment of the year so far. Absolutely merged potential. The plot is just a complete hole. And it would be something new that would change the universe. But no, in fact, the main characters did not come to anything. And where did you see a good fight? It was so dark that these scenes can now be considered the main competitor to the battle for Winterfell from Game of Thrones.
I liked the episode, the duel between Vader and Obi-Wan was really good, the scene with Vader's broken mask, where his voice was replaced, was very emotional💔
They put all the goodies in the last episode, although they could have distributed them throughout the season.
As for Revva, the last scene with her and Obi-Wan was quite dramatic, and the actress played well in this scene. It's just a pity they didn't show how she survived, it felt like some huge piece of the series had been cut out. What I didn't really understand was her goal of killing Luke, in terms of what it would give her-like quench her thirst for revenge? I will be glad if someone corrects me in case I misunderstood)
I didn't have any high expectations, it was just a series about good old Obi-Wan, it was cool to see Ewen in this role again, Hayden was also invited, he hadn't been seen for a long time, but here in the promo company of the series I was very pleased)
I can't imagine what will be shown in the second season yet, in fact, all the arches have been closed here.
Is Qui-Gon the only sucker who died from a stomach wound? How did she move so quickly and heal the wound? Why didn't Darth Vader kill Obi-Wan when he could? Why are there no wounds on Obi-Wan after he got out of the rubble? Okay. I don't understand something, I guess.
It was shot purely as a fan service, a flickering picture without hints of logic. It's a pity, but there was the potential to do something useful in the universe, but apparently not fate.
Some kind of ridiculous attraction. Vader means he flies a Hangman, but he can't send fast fighters. Obi-Wan can kill Vader, but he can't. And we all know why, for this reason, any conflict between Obi-Wan and Vader in the series is ridiculous, we already know the ending of these two characters. There was so much plot that could have been twisted, shown more than Tatooine, but no. We're back on a patch of planets.
Thank you, of course, for the sword fight, but I also saw it in "Revenge". It's really a pity that at the moment of throwing rocks, Vader didn't say something like "Well, who stands higher now", it would be funny) The authors, of course, tried to explain that Anakin is already dead, and it makes no sense for Obi-Wan to kill Vader, but that's not convincing.
But now, can someone explain how Reva even found out that Luke and Leia are someone important? Okay, she remembers Ani from her Jungling days, but no one saw Padme pregnant at the Jedi temple. I waited until the last moment for her to change into white and join Obi-Wan as a padawan, but no. Will she become a farmer? I don't care, but the Javas are hiding the sword in the desert.
It was very scary for the canon. How can I explain now why Leia didn't cry after old Ben's death in the New Hope of 77? I thought Obi-Wan had just flown to Aldeeran to erase her memory with Jedi magic, but in fact he flew halfway across the galaxy just to chat for two minutes near the spaceship.
Anakin is like, "I can't kill Kenobi-well, I didn't really want to." The emperor is like "guuuuuud". And no one even brought up the topic of where the vaunted Dark Side was and why the hell would they betray if Padme was dead. It would be better to film a season about how Anakin realizes that Sidious has abandoned him with all his promises and is trying to rebel while he is still not very old. Ugh.
@dezmond774: It would be strange if Leia was crying like the type she met once as a child. Yes, they got along well enough, but it's been a long time since then. More surprisingly, she named her son after him, and even not by his real name, but this is already a claim to the authors of the sequels.
That's a good fight! And they used force and swung swords well!! Probably everything else was filmed just for this fight.. The series didn't turn out very well, unfortunately..
I should have scored an 18+ rating and filmed Obi-Wan drinking, visiting Tatooine whores, and self-destructing. It would make sense at least. And action packed. Well, thanks for Neeson, we're always happy =) But in general, WHY?
Qui-Gon finally showed up. Even Obi-Wan himself was surprised by this. Although actor Liam Neeson said he would not appear (prankster🤭) Palpatine's cameo was a must. I just wonder if Ian McDermid played him. The battle between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader is good, including Anakin's half-broken helmet. I didn't expect anything supernatural from the series itself, so I put 4, but not 5 because of some joints.
Of course, Disney is squeezing out as much as it can, but such a foundation, I thought it would really be good, But no, even Neeson didn't drag it in, another bet on nostalgia ... objectively 2.7 out of 5 .. bad
the only normal episode of the entire series, the battle was good, and Disney, as always, is trying to squeeze out the maximum of the fan service. It was possible to make a super interesting series, as a result, only one episode out of 6 is normal, I bet 5/10 for a couple of good moments.
Still, Obi-Wan deserves a much better quality of the series as a character, but we have something! Smeared into snot along with Ben at the moment with Anakin and the broken helmet, immediately associated with the same scene with Ahsoka 😭 Obi-Wan smiling and laughing on Alderaan with Leia is like a balm to the soul, I would like to see a couple more of their adventures. Fanserivis is such a fanserivis, I would like some kind of morality at the end...
It's a bad series, if suddenly someone else hasn't watched it and came here to read opinions, it's better to take a look at the retelling of the plot on YouTube, you won't lose anything 2 out of 10
The Mouse House is at its worst. The formula is simple: "and where would you insert your fanfiction between the canon, well, in order to dig up old characters in our best nostalgic traditions, pleasing the type of fans who are ready to consume any rotten stuff unrestrainedly under the SW label, as long as they add more later. No, it's not all that terrible in this division: McGregor is trying to play the drama of a broken man, and the girl Leia does a good job of portraying an adult spirit trapped in a young body, but some are unable to outweigh the wagon of cliches and stupidity of the script. Especially in those moments when it is necessary to save the lives of key characters who will appear in future films, but the authors do not come up with anything original in these situations. Even Vader, who stood out for his thermonuclear performance in the finale of Rogue One, turns into another victim of lazy storytelling here. He doesn't serve Palpatine at all—the fan service is his master.
The gov series.. sorry... Weak and dumb. It's better to watch animated series. The bottom has been broken by this series and there is already knocking. I only put a 2 for Obi and Wade's fight, but even then the end of the fight is really dumb.
There were some good moments, and there were probably more of them in this episode than in the previous ones. But that's exactly what the moments are. The whole series itself is very, very weak in drama, first of all. And all the wonderful moments could very logically and appropriately be embedded in the form of cameos and story arcs in the same "Mandalorian", which would only make him play brighter. Here he meets a bearded hermit on Tatooine, with "Hello there" and it's clear whose voice - you don't even have to call anyone by name, and they'll understand. PS But at the same time, "Kenobi" is the most profitable TV series, as they say. So people like it.
@porco: and how could the events of this series logically be inserted into the Mandalorian? The time period is completely different, the actions of this series take place 18 years before the events of "Mandalorian" and Obi-Wan has been dead for 9 years. You can't really insert flashbacks either, because unless there is a Hatch in both.
@Bart182: the plot could have been completely different. Well, the plot here is frankly weak, it's not a pity. They are pulled exclusively at a fan service. And fanservice as such is perfectly inserted with flashbacks.
All 6 episodes, I was waiting for Obi Wan and Anakin to talk at least a little bit, these are, without exaggeration, some of the most popular movie characters in the world. Was it really impossible to add at least a few phrases to them, for example, Obi Wan would try to bring Anakin back to the bright side, or at least try to figure out how and why he was doing all this? Or on the contrary, Anakin would have told him how bad it was for him, for example, as a distraction, or he would also have tried to persuade the former master to the dark side. But alas, just a couple of phrases on duty and that's it. Of course, this is not the outcome millions have been waiting for for almost 20 years from the most iconic characters. Vader is just evil and bad, and Obi Wan is just kind and good. There was no chemistry between them, alas
@AndreyChernyaev: Did you watch it with your ass? Kenobi was crying, remorseful. Anakin said he didn't blame him, he messed up and killed himself. "You were my brother..." still, nothing will surpass.
Obi Wan is a favorite character. I was so glad to see him again. When his strength returned, it was powerful! They also brought back his student (I mean the actor). The helmet scene is very strong! Love for Anakin is still very strong, like a father's love for his son, it was sad!
The fact that a true Jedi doesn't kill a defeated one is also a bit strange. It seems like they used to kill opponents. After all, this guy is a threat to so many people, he could have captured him then, but left him alive like that, especially knowing that there was nothing left of Anakin there (although Vader's speech suggests the opposite, that at that moment it was possible to try to bring him back - he admitted that he himself was with I made it by myself). It is clear that Vader should be in the history of films, but then, as many wrote, it was necessary to play this fight differently so that Vader could escape before Obi Wan killed himself.
I also remembered about the conversation between the adults Luke and Leia, and when Luke asked if she knew her mother, she said that she knew a little and she was beautiful. But she knew that her mother had died, just like her father, and she was raised by unrelated parents. Then a joint came out on the story, back in the movie with Padme's death.
I liked the atmosphere, they brought me back to the past - yes, there were mistakes and mistakes, but overall it's very cool! You should have seen it!
It was always a pity that Obi Wan had such a difficult fate, and after the fall of the Jedi, he simply existed, and did not use his abilities to the maximum. At least here he has a movement with children and Vader.
We are waiting for the continuation about little Yoda, the topic of TV series has just come up. And I'd like to see more about Obi Wan, but that's kind of it. They don't promise a second season, although who knows, maybe they already promise - I don't know)
Yes, this series did not need Darth Vader as the main line. And Leia should have been in the same number as Luke. When there are so many fans of the service, it ceases to please.
You could come up with so many things... and they... why is this line with the third sister in this series? They could finish her branch so beautifully in the last episode, why did she fly to Tatooine? Why did you even think that this child was important to Anakin? Why kill him?
The only thing that pleases is the battle and the appearance of Qui-Gon. Finally, Obi Wan showed who is the coolest here. And Anakin's speech, along with Darth Vader's voice, is fine.
In general, I remember when I watched the Mandalorian and it gave me goosebumps how much this series was imbued with the spirit of real animals that I love so much.
In the same series, they managed to bring EVERYONE back, except that they didn't show Yoda alive, and the moments that somehow hooked me can be listed on the fingers.
Very bad straight. And the most annoying thing is that it is unlikely that Ewan Mcgror and the others can be persuaded to such an adventure for season 2. That is, there is no hope that things will get better in the future.
I really missed the dramatic dialogue between Obi-Wan and Anakin, as in Part 3 of the film.
The musical accompaniment for four, in the same 3rd part of the song, was so dramatic to listen to and see the ongoing battle between the two brothers.
And how surprised and delighted I was to see Qui-Gon! Thanks for that.
3 of my favorite epic characters are back in one place.
It's very crumpled and light, I'm talking about the whole series. It feels like they were shooting for some kind of stupid audience, there are a couple of good moments and a bit of old-school graphics, or maybe there just wasn't enough budget for a full-fledged animation, and it was possible to reveal the plot much deeper. In general, it's not bad, but it's not epic at all)) and in some moments, I'm openly annoyed or laughing at the fact that you're not watching a space drama, but some kind of stupid comedy) and yet, the Vader Tower is very similar to Mordor with the tower of Sauron.
I liked it, it's a pity that the series fell into the trap of high expectations. There are a lot of claims, frankly, just to get to the bottom of it, there are, of course, outright shoals, but if anyone has forgotten, the franchise is in the hands of Disney with all that follows, which means there will be hackneyed trails and misunderstandings with the canon. This is the reality and you will have to build on it, be realistic.
And within the framework of these realities, the series is excellent, all the necessary meetings have been completed, everything that needed to be said has been said. Well, considering how little Princess Leia (for a moment, a very rare good example of a female character) is in the franchise, I'm glad that she's being revealed at least this way.
How did the wounded Revva end up on Tatooine so quickly, calmly running after Luke and then carrying him in her arms. Wonder Woman: she doesn't burn in fire, she doesn't sink in water. I liked the fight between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader. The ending is good, I hope there won't be a second season.
Damn, after Obiwan's flashbacks to Leia and Luke, it felt like Kenobi was like a real father to them. Still, we need to lovingly reshoot the original trilogy with new emotions from Kenobi to Luke and Leia, and somewhere with the existing Ahsoka.
I'm not really a fan, I've never watched anything but movies. Therefore, maybe my indignation is unjustified. But I don't understand how Vader could merge like that. He's been pumping since the last meeting. I learned more about the dark power. He is wearing a space suit that causes pain on cd, thereby improving communication with the dark side. And Obi-Wan defeated him even harder. And why the hell didn't he kill him?(I read here that the Jedi don't do that) Or he didn't take him prisoner to be killed by someone else. And this conversation in which Darth Vader for some reason lightens Obi-Wan's burden by saying that he is not to blame for anything. It was his teacher who disfigured him so much. If he didn't want to kill him, he dragged him away and at least put it out. If it weren't canon, I would have asked why he didn't try to turn to the bright side, didn't say that he had children, that Sidious took advantage of him in a difficult moment, since he returned to the path of the Jedi himself.
If the end of the duel had been Vader throwing stones at Obi-Wan, it would have made more sense. Moreover, I have already read comments somewhere that Darth Vader did not look for Obi-Wan in part 4 and thought that he was dead.
And in the end, Vader's gestalt was not revenge, but the absolution of Obi-Wan's "sins."
Qui-Gon had zero meaning in the end.
The moment with the Roar of a solid cringe. She had previously gone all over the galaxy killing everyone, including force-sensitive children, and then changed her mind. Although she had a lot more motivation than before.
It would be better to end up with Obi-Wan trapped under the rocks. Darth Vader stands on a hill. And then, after some time, they show how Darth Vader let go of the past and informs Sidious about it. How Leia is brought home. If necessary, about Reva, they show how she watches a happy family, changes her mind about revenge and goes off into the sunset.
And already in the second season, they show how Obi-Wan gets out and his new adventure begins.
At what point does it occur to you to take something legendary and fail so legendarily?!?🤦🏽♀️ If there is a second season, I hope they will work on the bugs and it will be more interesting!🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽
It's sad that Obi-Wan's solo album, which was conceived inside LucasFilm for so many years, turned out to be the most incompetent of all the projects in the franchise. It was as if the organizers of the stand at the Comic raised money to hire all the necessary actors, but there were not enough funds for the director and screenwriters.
If the Mandalorian was an independent and independent work that was liked not only by fans, but also by a completely inexperienced audience, and Boba Fett's Book was a piece of cake, but which could be viewed with at least one eye, especially under the impression of the previous series, then Obi-Wan Kenobi is pure fanservice, parasitizing the fan love for the frontmen from the first three episodes.
By and large, take Ben and Anakin out of here, and what's left is the bottom line? For five episodes, the Inquisitors follow in the footsteps of young Leia, so that in the last episode she can safely fly home on a shuttle. That's about it. Directed by Robert B. Weide.
So it turns out that the whole project is based solely on Obi-Wan's reflection on his padowan, which does not translate into anything specific. Kenobi is not trying to bring Anakin back to the fold of the light side of the Force, he is not trying to reach the echoes of Skywalker's consciousness, which is still smoldering in fragments in Darth Vader's head. And the dark Lord himself has no plans for his former teacher. Literally their entire confrontation is explained by the concept that Darth Vader is bad and Obi-Wan is good.
Well... Okay, cool. But why make a series about what we already knew? Apparently solely for the sake of luring fans with their favorite and popular characters. And there's nothing wrong with that, but it's kind of small for a massive multi-million dollar franchise.
After all, you have a huge fantasy universe. It would seem that there are so many plots, so many unsolved heroes and characters. But instead, you're trying to sell an absolutely empty piece that the guest stars are trying to pull out of the previous installments.
If I approached the previous series in a very complimentary way, although Boba Fett's Book already looked much weaker than the Mando movie epic, then Obi-Wan Kenobi is frankly weak.
As they say, hello to the fans, and my condolences to the rest of those who watched.
The key mistake was in choosing the plot. To be honest, it's impossible to squeeze out an interesting and unpredictable plot when 90% of the characters are protected by the canon's story armor. That's what they ran into, a boring sight for the sake of a picture and familiar faces.
Well, in general, the impressions of the series were quite negative. The second failure this year after the series on "HALO". The advantages include the powerful Vader, the return of Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor to their roles, and the references, of course. Otherwise, as for me, the series was more about the Third Sister than about Kenobi, the staging of lightsaber battles turned out to be lousy (although the final fight between Vader and Kenobi is good), a lot of action scenes take place in the dark, not to mention the generally extremely stupid scenes in the series. Anyway, the whole plot of this six-part series could actually be put into a full-length film, and the plot should be based on the novel "Kenobi" by John Jackson Miller.
Meanwhile, Kathleen Kennedy said that if fans want, they can get a second season of the series. And, to be honest, it's better not to. Although, if you call Favreau and Filoni, it will be cool, they will take it out. And there was a rumor that they could make their own series about the Third Sister, but do we need it? The character turned out to be extremely flat and uncharismatic, and the actress, let's be honest, knows how to act out only two emotions - a poker face and an evil face.
In general, I expected more, to be honest. I won't say that Kenobi is frankly terrible, but the series is frankly a bit long-winded and boring. You could have tried much better.
P.S. Qui-Gon's sudden appearance as a ghost of power is definitely a good Easter egg, although his appearance was predictable.
@Hunter_Number23: I agree on many things. Only the series was released not only about the Third Sister, but also about little Leia, an unintelligent and ill-mannered girl. Why the inquisitors were needed here is generally unclear. The focus was immediately shifted to this Sister, the rest are purely scenery. I read that the shooting took the minimum amount of time (out of ALL the series) - 4 months. And yes, it would have originally been a feature film, until the Solo flop happened. There is no need for a second season unless another creative and administrative team, starting with Caitlin Kennedy, does it. The main characters are the plane itself and stilts.
Oh, I didn't have enough... There are still 4-6 episodes. The emotions at the end and the holed helmet - it was cool, but the topic, it feels, is not fully disclosed... And Hayden wasn't enough..
I liked the series as a whole, except that some points differed from the original trilogy, if it weren't for these moments that spoil all the first impressions for fans, it would have been much better.
No matter how much they praised or scolded the series (I accept and agree with a lot of things), but after it I couldn't resist and turned on episode IV...
@Sayfutdinova_P: I think that was the goal of the creators of the series, so that the old people would buy and nostalgic again, and the kids would get to know the ZV universe and buy all the movies too.
A cash cow and that's it. The mouse house is sucking all the juices out of the franchise. Fanservice for the sake of fanservice. The last two episodes are passable, but what did they say that was new? Filler and that's it
Overall, I'm happy with the series, yes, it wasn't the best in the franchise, but I liked it.... In principle, my expectations were met, what I wanted was about what I got, the only thing I would like in the first series of the darker wanderings of the morally destroyed Kenobi, so that it would be shown in the context of those ten years that have passed since Revenge of the Sith. The first three episodes were just normal / good, the fourth series began to scare, because it was much weaker, although there were familiar things for everyone, but how good the 5th and 6th series came out...They're just something. I don't need season 2.
I won't be original, but a verbal duel that turns into a sword fight justifies, if not all, then at least some controversial points that can be forgiven. But the Third sister still turned out to be more of a cringe than a creep.
This series is the worst thing that happened to Star Wars after they came under the control of Disney Studios. But once upon a time we thought the prequels were bad.…
This is the best thing that Disney has created for Star Wars. This is exactly the kind of saga for me. Neither the rebels, nor the resistance, nor the Rogue One. And how well the original trilogy and the prequels combined.
Why was this third inquisitor needed in this story? Moreover, she's running around the Galaxy somewhere now with knowledge that Obi-Wan shouldn't have left her alive with. Disney must have been up to some kind of dirty trick. That's where the dark side of the Force is now! No one has harmed a Galaxy as far away as this company. Besides, it feels like Caitlin Kennedy has something personal to her, since she set out to merge all the Lucas characters. The three of them were dealt with in episodes 7-9, and now it's Obi-Wan's turn. Who's next?
There is nothing clear. It's a great series. It's a prequel. Star Wars Revenge of the Sith when Anakin burned down in the Mustafar system, Obi Wan thought that Anakin was dead, but the fact is not. And it was Star Wars new Hope that Luke and Leia grew up with. But what did they do when they were both little? What was Leia's adventure like? What an adventure Luke was. Nothing is clear. I give you 10 stars. I'm waiting for season 2, I hope)))))
Unfortunately, the series came out weak for me personally, despite the very cool cast. Judging by the new little characters, it was made more for children, not fans of the franchise. Well, little Leia turned out to be no little Yoda (I think he will find his response from a younger audience
After watching the series, I went back to review the entire timeline of both Han Solo and Rogue One. You discover something new every time. The series could certainly have been more intense. But if you review it, there are also ragged episodes and characters that are not always prescribed. And if there is an Obi vs Anakin episode 2 and 3 line, then there are so few and crumpled in episode 4 and 5 that it was this meeting after the battle in season 3 that was missing. And they can't kill each other. Just as Batman needs the Joker, Obi needs Darth, they are opponents, but they are still Jedi and friends.
Obie doesn't finish off Anakin in season 3, even though it would be more humane, given his injuries, to leave him to die a hard death. I feel sorry for Anakin in general, both the Jedi, Palpatine and Luke went out on his guilt and thirst to become the first and the best.
To my surprise, I saw a lot of negative reviews: but if Disney had shot this series the way everyone wants it to: with a good idea, politics, deep dialogues and persistence, I'm afraid it would have been hacked even in the pilot, given that the budget for the series was already small.
Personally, I didn't like the kind of detachment of the story: there are very few scenes with extras, scenes of everyday life, jokes. The locations are almost always semi-empty, with very little ent. But I really liked the sword fighting performances. It turns out that our Russian girl worked as a movement assistant and she also set Vader's gait. Vader, by the way, is epic, and it doesn't surprise me why he and Obi Wan can't kill each other. There will always be a part of Anakin living in Vader, we all know how the canon ended. And, bravo to the actress playing little Leia. I got into the character very well.
>> if only Disney had shot this series the way everyone wants it to: with a good idea, politics, deep dialogues and aggressiveness ... It would have been a good series with a small budget. One does not contradict the other.
I liked the series, even though I expected something more. It was incredibly nice to see the old actors! The story itself turned out to be quite interesting, although in some places not everything was revealed in the plot. I'll give the series a 5 for the atmosphere and the actors!
I don't understand whiners, but there is an omission, there are moments that simply cannot exist. But! The TV series the cannon came out! Stop whining, enjoy)
It turned out to be a good series🙂🙂Obi-Wan and Darth Vader's fight was great😍🔥 It's a pity, of course, that there are only 6 episodes, I would like more🌝
As a result of watching the series, questions have accumulated.: 1. Why do communication devices in a distant galaxy not have personal data protection and anyone can view your "text message"? 2. How did the Third Sister guess that a certain boy mentioned in the message is the son of that very farmer named Owen? 3. If a cruiser cannot shoot down a successfully maneuvering ship, why didn't they release interceptor ships? 4. Why wasn't the crew of the cruiser instructed in the style of "if I don't come out of there, shoot"? And after watching the whole season, there's only one question: why are the royals so poorly guarded in those parts?
It's a great series. The fight between Anakin and Obi-Wan turned out to be no worse than in the third episode. Overall, I liked the series (I didn't just try to figure something out in advance, and I just enjoyed watching the series).
3/4 of the episode's budget went to Liam Neeson's fee :Of course, his appearance has been hounded since Episode III. Well, no kidding, everything ended well. The choreography of the fights once again plunged into the youth of watching the first trilogy on the big screen. A face-to-face conversation with Anakin should have taken place, I personally needed it, many thanks. This brought the final line and closed all the issues in the relationship between Kenobi and Anakin in the outline of the first trilogy. If my memory serves me correctly, Kenobi uses the same sword that Luke Skywalker will later have. It was only in this episode that I noticed it.
I'm not the biggest Star Wars fan, but I've watched all the episodes and The Mandalorian. Honestly, I expected more from this series. It was immediately clear how this story would end, because we all saw the events after the series. Therefore, it is unlikely that we could be surprised by any unexpected plot twists. But it would be more interesting to tell the story of the main character. It's Obi Wan! Why, after watching the series, do I have the feeling that I watched the adventures of some little girl? Why not call the series "Leia"? After watching it, there was nothing left in my memory. "The Mandalorian" turned out to be much more interesting to me.
Yeah... to shit yourself with such characters like that, you just have to try. Thanks to the music and the pirates who brought back the voices from the prequel trilogy, a couple of episodes can be considered quite watchable, but the rest... it's sad to see what a franchise with such potential has turned into. …
Yeah, most of us expected something super awesome from the series, but in fact we fucked it up, it's not surprising why it happened after finding out what kind of production hell the series turned out to be in. They rewrote it 3-4 times and thought to make a TV series or a movie, which is exactly what we have now.
The moments that >;>> total: 1. HELLO THERE 2. Half of Vader's mask is blown off, as in the battle with Ahsoka (very painful, thank you) 3. A glimpse of Anakin as he absolved Obie of blame. 4. HAYDEN. (my opinion, but he shouldn'T have made his face look younger. Yes, they're older, but at least they got into a fight without a frozen cgi face) 5. Qui-Gon! Finally!
A great roller coaster with lots of nostalgia. I'm glad that Finali Obi and Anakin were shown between the VK and the original trilogy and allowed to delve into Kenobi's depression and Vader's obsession, who lives on revenge instead of air :')
Ti-ti-tirelly ti-ti-tirelly. In fact, it's a good piece to find out what happened between episodes 3 and 4, because this part is shrouded in mystery. In my opinion, it's pretty good. I'm not an ardent fan of the Star Wars canon, but as I understand it, they really didn't have the opportunity to give more scale to the action because of the time when the events took place. That's why they're stomping around and can't just stupidly kill someone important. But these little things, for me personally, do not interfere with viewing. I saw familiar faces, was happy and sad for them. Thank you. We are waiting for the series about Cassian Andor.
Hello there! I can't help but write, after all, a favorite character in the ZV universe.
I agree with many, the series didn't turn out the way everyone expected it to. Black Sister has received too much attention during the storyline. It's sad that she was put on a good path, but they couldn't bring out the character. And it's really sad that two holes from the holy sword don't kill now, even though one was enough before (although if you remember, Darth Mall survived being cut in half, due to his hatred and unfinished business, OK). We are now waiting for a review in the next projects, most likely. The fight between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader was abominably staged. An action movie in the style of the latest trilogy with lots of close-ups and camera shake. I was hoping for a level of 2-3 episodes and cartoons (haha). And in general, it's powerful, I don't argue. But here we come to the main problem of the series - the addition of Darth Vader played by Hayden Christensen. Yes, the original script included Darth Mall, but the actor took a shit in his life and was canceled by the studio. Oooooey. But adding it purely for the audience's response is a dubious decision. Although, on the other hand, the canon of this time period is quite rubbery. And there's nothing wrong with inserting a few fights between a former teacher and a student. The only downside is that everyone already knows that none of the characters will deal a fatal blow. Therefore, in the future I would like to see more interesting scenario solutions from Disney. Otherwise, every new project about your favorite characters will be drowned in the fecal matter left behind by the newest trilogy.
a series about a Jedi in which one and a half swords are cut, and that's so-so, first they'll get caught, then as always... I thought he would at least remove the black one in each episode of the Sith, then Yoshimitsu from tekken - in general, a colorful type, well, that midboss with a melon head would also be nice to chop, but you can see the budget of 3 kopecks, even shooting from a cruiser at a transport shuttle was with a full graphon, the campaign spent everything on The pretentious destruction of the shuttle in the last episode...(
a bunch of useless characters who for some reason should care.. it's an absolutely uninteresting story about these inquisitors , thanks for Qui Gon and the battle of DV and Kenobi in the last episode , although it ended stupidly, but at least it was epic
The girl who played Leia did a great job, but of course her escapes are ridiculous
Very weak and ridiculous. Ironically, the decision not to finish off Vader will lead to the destruction of Alderaan, the planet of Leia, to which Obi-Wan is so imbued.
I agree with some of the commentators here that it would be better if this entire miniseries were made into a single movie. It would have been more entertaining in the story. But overall, I liked the series and the performance of the little actress and, of course, the appearance of Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi with post-traumatic syndrome.
The sound is good The fight is good But the plot is just something with something full of seams. You watch and sometimes you don't understand the motivation of an action. Vader, who still remembers what kind of fighter Kenobi is and makes such mistakes. Vader, who selected the Inquisitors as his troops to search for the Jedi, and passes the youngling who will take revenge without torture. The plot is a hat, and I'm even glad that it was closed.
Disney needs its own Darth Vader. They play on flashbacks and feelings for old characters. Yes, there are positive aspects, like Leia playing well, but otherwise, it's just a fairy tale with jambs in the script. It's a pity that I won't see anything more interesting with the actors I love so much...
Yunling's motivation every time is a wild swing, of course. The character was written so ridiculously that it largely spoiled the whole impression, along with a huge number of ridiculous and illogical blunders. This series doesn't even come close to the level of the Guadalorean and Bob Feta's book... almost all the battle scenes are absolutely miserable, boring and made to drag out screen time.
Reviewed the last episode. And with a fresh look, I still come to conclusions. That it's not that bad. Obi-wan does not kill Vader because he becomes uninterested in him. And Obi-wan does what he usually does-he doesn't kill for no reason. It operates according to the code. The final conversation helps to pacify Kenobi. As he says himself in a dialogue with Reva: That she was free now, too.
Obi-wan was tormented by guilt, his brain was clouded and he existed and bent. So all this stuff helped Kenobi get rid of the burden of guilt. And Vader helped to do it. "I killed him myself." There was no happiness, but misfortune helped. Yes, he was being cowardly, and he could have taken down Vader, if it was already clear that there was nothing left of Anakin there and there was simply no one to talk to. And that's where Reva was needed for color. That both Anakin and she were passionate about revenge, anger, and fear. But one completely fell, and the other was able to turn away from the path and admit her pain and fear. And Obi-wan helps to embark on a bright path here. Just like in Christianity, Saint Peter killed everyone, and then became a Mega-Christian) but it didn't work out with Vader. But Luke did) But! The meeting with Quaigon has become even more valuable!! As we can see, Obiwan had a lot of pens and he was not ready to meet with his teacher until he dealt with his sorrows, despondency and sorrow. Not at all Jedi-like) So Kenobi became really cool from a spiritual point of view just after communicating with Quaigon. So the whole cowardice thing can be justified to Ben, because at that time he was carried away only by his guilt. But if this scene had been after Quigon's training from the Force, then I'm sorry, you could have safely thrown piss rags at the scriptwriters. As was done in the new trilogy, when Luke Skywalker was turned into a paranoid crazy grandfather.
@MasterGeo: Padme believed in Eni in her last moments for a reason (she said before she died that she knew that the good was still in him): he consciously took the blame from the teacher, "I killed him myself." They had been friends for so long. Which villain will engage in nobility (removing feelings of guilt)? He saw for himself what Ben had become over the years (I cried so much yesterday over this scene, especially when the mask half revealed his face). Well, the 6th episode affects him, when his son was almost killed in front of his eyes, this was the only thing that remained and connected him with Padme (going back to the 3rd episode, the first thing he asked was "Where is Padme? Is she safe?).
An interesting point of view. Although I doubt that a glimpse of Ani came out through the abyss of the dark side to relieve guilt) but it is quite acceptable 🧐
At Star Wars celebration yesterday, Kennedy posted information that season 2 is in development. Obviously, if anything is going to be born, it's clearly about Roaring, and Obi-Wan is purely on backup dancing.
@Captain_Rex: She said the exact opposite. She said that a second season is not in development, but they may return to this issue in the future, as there is fan interest and Ewan McGregor himself is interested in continuing.
@Bart182: I was misinformed 😭 But she doesn't go into complete denial that there won't be a second season. I wouldn't be surprised if Disney eventually decides to return to the series.
There were so many negative reviews about this series in the comments to The Mandalorian, Andor, and Bob Fet's Book that I was in no hurry to watch it. And in vain. It's no worse than the animals themselves, and it's just interesting to see your favorite characters, the continuation of their story. I watched with pleasure, closing my eyes, not some of the absurdities (they are in almost all films and TV series!), I really liked some of the scenes, for example, the dialogue in the battle between Obi Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader and their emotions. Well played. And, of course, I wanted to review all the films)
The series for the sake of the series, we know that none of the characters will die, there is no tension and worry, we just remembered a little bit of the original)
Overall, I liked the series. Of the cons, I would single out not particularly spectacular battles, except in this series and the moment when Obi Wan left Vader without finishing him (yes, I know that it would break the Canon, but the moment itself looked kind of strange)
Well, I looked at it once, you can watch it. The only thing that worries me is a very big question, ranging from classic star wars to the current ones, such a question as how they determine that there is oxygen on other planets and the gravity of their body is suitable for it. It's the same when a humanoid-like society gathers in one place, for example, the planet Tatooine, not all planets have the same gravity. Well, a fairy tale is a fairy tale.
I can't imagine how to produce such a mediocre product with such a budget, actors, and background. Everything is bad here, I was horrified after watching it, I haven't watched such garbage for a long time. It's like some fifth graders wrote the script. How this scenario was approved by the Disney management is not clear. Obi Wan's character is iconic in the STAR universe. He doesn't deserve this series. In general, it's like a bad dream to forget.
The entire series was filmed for the sake of a duel between Kenobi and Vader, unfortunately with a predictable result. In general, after tons of Haight, I expected the worst. It's not that bad, but it's not good enough.
"Anakin?" "Anakin is gone. I am what remains" "I'm sorry. I’m sorry, Anakin. For all of it." "I am not your failure, Obi-Wan. You didn’t kill Anakin Skywalker… I did."
— Anakin… —Anakin is gone. I'm all that's left. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Anakin... for everything that happened. "I'm not your fault, Obi-Wan. You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker.… I killed him.
In short, the only good thing about this series is Anakin and Obi-Wan. Their scenes dragged everything they could-especially Anakin (both as Anakin and as Vader). As it is, the series is the stupidest piece of shit.
Discussion: Season 1, Episode 6 Join the Discussion
243Special thanks for the musical accompaniment in this series and the appearance of Qui-Gon.
In general, the series is a three. By the last episodes, the series is gaining momentum, but still falls short of the expected level. Disney had a great opportunity to shoot a gorgeous series about one of the most beloved characters in the universe of stars, but they fucked it up and shot what they shot (((
OK, it worked in the movies, Anakin didn't die, he became Darth Vader. Luke, I'm your father and all that. And then the screenwriters used this technique so much that they took it to the extreme. There is no empathy when the hero "dies".:
- Anakin "kills" Reva as a jungling, then again as a Third Sister. But no, she's still alive. Again.
- Vader leaves Obi-Wan to die in a fire, but he ends up alive. He falls asleep with stones, with the same result.
- Reva kills the Grand Inquisitor, but he is also alive.
- Vader tells Obi-Wan that he killed Anakin himself, which, as we know from the movies, is also not true.
- Obi-Wan once again leaves the dying Vader (he says out loud that there is nothing left of Anakin in him), but after a couple of minutes of screen time, he is calmly sitting on his throne in a new suit.
- At the beginning of the series, the Third Sister threatens Owen, at the end of the season she fights with him. But in the denouement he is alive and well, he got off with an abrasion.
- The third Sister raises the sword over the Hatch, but in the next scene he is also alive.
OK, we know from the movies that Obi-Wan, Luke and Vader will survive. But is the Third Sister there too? WTF? Maybe Tala from the rebels will miraculously survive in the end?
And to finish it off, the imperial destroyer pursues two small ships for a long time, firing all the guns, but to no avail. Common sense has gone out of the chat.
There were so many strong finales for Revva's story to make, but the creators of course took the easiest path, came up with a "redemption" for her, then to shove into a cloud of other projects.
KWAI GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
His heart bled when Obi Wan asked Anakin for forgiveness. although the series is a C, but their duel just finished them off
and the fact that we both saw and heard Hayden in the role and Anakin in the flashback, and in this Darth Vader episode?? We've been blessed, no other way
I also liked Hello There, Palpatine's cameo, Qui-gon, the imperial march, and I also liked the moments with the little princess. I think the second season is needed at least to hear the dialogue between Obi Wan and Qui-gon about train the boy.

It's a pity they didn't add a flashback from the Clone Wars and Ahsoka to the series. On the other hand, the series is about Kenobi, not Vader
:
I'll throw rocks at you.
⠀Obi-Wan:
⠀⠀—No, I'll throw you in!

⠀The roar turned out to be a roar.
And the mini-Leia got a holster. It remains to get a blaster.⠀:)

Special thanks for the gifs <3
The series is still bad in the end, the last 2 episodes can not cover the entire cringe of what was in the first 4.
The Reva Line is the worst thing in this series
'You have failed, Master' — </3
Ian McDermid and Liam Neeson were also nice to see again. It's a pity that Qui-Gon only appeared at the end. The last episode plays on my emotions and a sense of nostalgia 100% :')
In general, the series is somehow about nothing, the history of such significant characters could be shown much better and more interesting. The line with the Inquisitors in general was superfluous. I hope that if they extend it for a second season, they will take into account the mistakes made here and find better writers. Such a cast of actors deserves the best realization of their characters
it's good that at least "Hello there" was inserted!
overall, I really liked it) I want more
the scene with the fight and half of the mask is a spread of nostalgia and emotions, both played just great
Obi's warmth towards the kids is also simple 💔
The first episodes of Mando were also protracted, it seems to me that Kenobi needs more seasons, so much can be done, I would watch the film at all...
I think the Revva arch is not bad, its motives are clear, the story is sad, finally I took the time to the tragedy of the Youngling murder
in general, I liked it, I want more)
0/10 from me. The worst project in terms of
And I understand that it was necessary for the characters to stay alive, but could there really be no other denouement other than "he turned around and just left"? Plus, the Reva line was clumsily closed.
Special thanks for Qui-Gon. And the scene where Owen lets Obi-Wan get to know Luke is also good.
Alas, in general, the series is really a three. There are a lot of questions about the motivation of actions, a lot of logical problems, frankly cringe scenes. Better, of course, than nothing at all, but we've been waiting for this series for so many years! It is a pity that the creators were unable to put in more effort.
it's amazing how foreign fans liked the series and the finale and how everyone shits here) I sincerely don't understand why
yes, I agree with shoals and sometimes cringe scenes, let's say
But the Roar arch? She's great. the surviving youngling, who made her way to the Inquisitors and dreams of taking revenge on them. this has never happened before, her story is shown well, the actress also played well)
in general, I do not understand the whole haight, I do not understand what everyone was waiting for and I am sure that it will be better from now on)
about Reva, too, to some extent now we can say "Return of the Jedi")
The series is far from a masterpiece, and there is a lot of cringe, and outright rude Disney-style fanservice. But it's clearly not shit -10000/10. Average guy. In five years, they will remember with nostalgia and set an example, discussing a new project on ZV.
And the series is more like a fanfiction based on, if not for the actors from the films
And even the duel between Vader and Ben was filmed a long time ago by fans of choreography 10 times better on YouTube)
to be quite a fan, you can notice the movements-references to the prequels, where Ani and Obi fought shoulder to shoulder, and even a reference to Vader's battle with Luke
Why didn't Obi Wan kill Darth?
Well, not really, but so that he himself thinks that he killed
Or vice versa
It's very stupid and it's just ridiculous to watch, as well as the third sister, who stupidly survived with a bandage and suddenly found herself on Tatooine.
You see, when a product is good, you don't notice the disadvantages, when it's bad, even the smallest ones become noticeable.
a. Initially, I did not set myself the bar for the "best project of the decade" level, so I liked the series. Yes, there was a lot of stupidity and handiness, but (for me) there were a lot more pleasant moments.
b. If there is a second season, I hope the show will change (at least) the scriptwriters.
c. I don't know why, but I still have the feeling that this project is in the format of a film (for two and a half hours) It would have looked much better.
Eh, years of waiting and such a meager result.
It's clear that you always want a little more. Ewen is a great professional. The screenwriter still admitted that he did not remember the events of 3/4 episodes of the saga, but still more often there were thoughts that he had not watched them, most of the events were nonsense. I think it was wrong to add Vader in principle, it spoils their meeting and duel in the Hope, even if we can say that the canon is not completely broken. Ben's relationship with Leia is also completely changed, although in Hope he was just an old man she didn't know. Basically, the scriptwriter and the director were basely trying to play the drama of possible death with characters who are alive 10 years after the events of the series, cheaply and stupidly.
In any case, thanks to the creators for the series (special thanks for firing the person responsible for the duels in The Last Jedi, even though they didn't seem to hire the one who staged them in the prequels, the waving of the lightsabers turned out to be generally good), thanks for Ewen, thanks for Hayden. Thanks especially for Ian's cameo, I adore him in this role! Thanks for Liam's cameo. McGregor and Christensen genuinely enjoyed filming, and as a fan, I enjoyed their shared scenes. There are a lot of references in them (Vader saying that I killed Anakin, a reference to Ben telling Luke), repetitions of phrases (a la Then I will do what I must - Then you will die, as before their duel on Mustafar), a whole flashback. I want to review their scenes in the voiceover of the studio that invited the prequel voice actors, I'll probably burst into tears with happiness. Still, a second season is not needed. Or let it be some kind of adventure purely for Ben, without the Jedi and the Skywalker family. Thanks for the adventure and the old cast.
May the Force be with you, always.
Hello there!
Why the fuck do I have two legs?
Chop them both off for me,
Obi-Wan Kenobi!
the return of your favorite characters
with an interesting plot
and an epic duel
in reality:
the escape of a girl in the woods
, parkour on the roof
and the death of Wade or xs, whatever his name is…
If I understand correctly, Qui-gon did not appear to Obi-Wan, because Obi-Wan departed from the path of the Jedi back on Mustafar, when he left Anakin to die a painful death in order to avenge the murder of the Younglings. Further renunciation of the force and helping others also did not coincide with the path of the Jedi. Accordingly, when Obi Wan had already deliberately spared Vader, he returned to the path of the Jedi.
In turn, Anakin has also undergone an evolution. If earlier he blamed anyone but himself for everything that happened, then in the final battle, Darth Vader, with his words "you didn't kill Anakin, I did it," admits that he is to blame for everything. And this is no longer typical of the dark side. Perhaps that's why Obi Wan spared him.
In general, the arc of the character is tracked by both - it is clear that the scriptwriters were working.
But the implementation, damn it, is clumsy. Especially the ending of the Inquisitor's story finished me off. Vader killed my friends, so I'm going to kill his son, whom he doesn't even know about. WTF?
In general, the verdict is that the creators have a bright head. It's just a pity that the hands are growing out of the ass.
Thanks to the series and its creators for the fan service and the wonderful Leia, and no thanks for the African inquisitor, parkour in the style of Steve Carrell from "The Office" and many other things in the series.
Obi Wan returned to the path of the Jedi, an epic battle with Vader, meeting with Luke, hugging with Leia))))) Well , and the appearance of Qui-Gon ...we are waiting for the continuation.
She survived just like any other character, only Qui-Gon died normally from a sword in the stomach.
A great duel between Obi-Wan and Vader, with a demonstration of strength and skills. I really liked Vader with the half mask and "You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker, I did it."
Why Revva went to Tatooine, I still didn't understand. Revenge... To whom? Or did she realize that Luke was Anakin's child? And how did she figure it out? Just by a message on the communicator?
Overall, the experience of both battles (Vader–Obi-Wan and Revva–Owen and Beru) is marred by the knowledge that they will all live for at least another nine years. I understand that the scriptwriters' hands are tied by canon, but could the denouement have been made less clumsy? These eternal chasing after each other "I'll beat you", "no, I'll beat you", ending with the fact that they just leave the opponents unfinished – well, are you serious?
There are good scenes with Leia, although the whole line is out of the canon, but in the New Hope, Obi-Wan is an outsider to Leia. And it was nice to see the little cameos of Palpatine and Qui-Gon. With Qui-Gon, it was expected that he would only appear at the end.
As a result, the idea is good, the execution is so-so, the series came out weak, with a C. By the end, there are so many hardcore scenes that you don't pay attention to them anymore or you laugh instead of freaking out. They're talking about the second season here. Will he be there? If it's going to be the same as this one, then why not?
Specifically for Leia, he is an outsider, she knows about him only from her father's stories — enough to understand that he is a trusted person. There is nothing to indicate that she knows him or was familiar with him at one time. But the creators of the series bolt put it on🤷🏻♀️
And yet. Imagine, there are hundreds of thousands of planets in the galaxy, and we have Tatooine in the third series. I'm sure he'll be in both Ahsoka and Andor, so the scenery will be lost.
Personally, I have a dream. That someday the film industry will take a look at the neighboring department, where they are riveting Marvel series, and realize that the Expanded Universe is also full of good comics. My favorite is the Knights of the Old Republic comic strip, and a couple more. Dreams.
And where did you see a good fight? It was so dark that these scenes can now be considered the main competitor to the battle for Winterfell from Game of Thrones.
They put all the goodies in the last episode, although they could have distributed them throughout the season.
As for Revva, the last scene with her and Obi-Wan was quite dramatic, and the actress played well in this scene. It's just a pity they didn't show how she survived, it felt like some huge piece of the series had been cut out. What I didn't really understand was her goal of killing Luke, in terms of what it would give her-like quench her thirst for revenge? I will be glad if someone corrects me in case I misunderstood)
I didn't have any high expectations, it was just a series about good old Obi-Wan, it was cool to see Ewen in this role again, Hayden was also invited, he hadn't been seen for a long time, but here in the promo company of the series I was very pleased)
I can't imagine what will be shown in the second season yet, in fact, all the arches have been closed here.
Thank you, of course, for the sword fight, but I also saw it in "Revenge". It's really a pity that at the moment of throwing rocks, Vader didn't say something like "Well, who stands higher now", it would be funny) The authors, of course, tried to explain that Anakin is already dead, and it makes no sense for Obi-Wan to kill Vader, but that's not convincing.
In short, meh.
Okay, she remembers Ani from her Jungling days, but no one saw Padme pregnant at the Jedi temple.
I waited until the last moment for her to change into white and join Obi-Wan as a padawan, but no. Will she become a farmer? I don't care, but the Javas are hiding the sword in the desert.
It was very scary for the canon. How can I explain now why Leia didn't cry after old Ben's death in the New Hope of 77? I thought Obi-Wan had just flown to Aldeeran to erase her memory with Jedi magic, but in fact he flew halfway across the galaxy just to chat for two minutes near the spaceship.
Anakin is like, "I can't kill Kenobi-well, I didn't really want to."
The emperor is like "guuuuuud".
And no one even brought up the topic of where the vaunted Dark Side was and why the hell would they betray if Padme was dead. It would be better to film a season about how Anakin realizes that Sidious has abandoned him with all his promises and is trying to rebel while he is still not very old. Ugh.
The series didn't turn out very well, unfortunately..
But in general, WHY?
Palpatine's cameo was a must. I just wonder if Ian McDermid played him.
The battle between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader is good, including Anakin's half-broken helmet.
I didn't expect anything supernatural from the series itself, so I put 4, but not 5 because of some joints.
Obi-Wan smiling and laughing on Alderaan with Leia is like a balm to the soul, I would like to see a couple more of their adventures.
Fanserivis is such a fanserivis, I would like some kind of morality at the end...
But that's exactly what the moments are. The whole series itself is very, very weak in drama, first of all.
And all the wonderful moments could very logically and appropriately be embedded in the form of cameos and story arcs in the same "Mandalorian", which would only make him play brighter.
Here he meets a bearded hermit on Tatooine, with "Hello there" and it's clear whose voice - you don't even have to call anyone by name, and they'll understand.
PS But at the same time, "Kenobi" is the most profitable TV series, as they say. So people like it.
there is not a single episode of the series for which you can say "it was worth watching", a fierce failure at the level of the last trilogy.
The series in general went into the evening 😊
And yes, Obi-wan fucked up again and again did not finish off Vader, which doomed countless people to death, not to mention the entire planet.
The fact that a true Jedi doesn't kill a defeated one is also a bit strange. It seems like they used to kill opponents. After all, this guy is a threat to so many people, he could have captured him then, but left him alive like that, especially knowing that there was nothing left of Anakin there (although Vader's speech suggests the opposite, that at that moment it was possible to try to bring him back - he admitted that he himself was with I made it by myself). It is clear that Vader should be in the history of films, but then, as many wrote, it was necessary to play this fight differently so that Vader could escape before Obi Wan killed himself.
I also remembered about the conversation between the adults Luke and Leia, and when Luke asked if she knew her mother, she said that she knew a little and she was beautiful. But she knew that her mother had died, just like her father, and she was raised by unrelated parents. Then a joint came out on the story, back in the movie with Padme's death.
I liked the atmosphere, they brought me back to the past - yes, there were mistakes and mistakes, but overall it's very cool! You should have seen it!
It was always a pity that Obi Wan had such a difficult fate, and after the fall of the Jedi, he simply existed, and did not use his abilities to the maximum. At least here he has a movement with children and Vader.
We are waiting for the continuation about little Yoda, the topic of TV series has just come up. And I'd like to see more about Obi Wan, but that's kind of it. They don't promise a second season, although who knows, maybe they already promise - I don't know)
Duel 🔥🔥🔥
4/5
When there are so many fans of the service, it ceases to please.
You could come up with so many things... and they... why is this line with the third sister in this series? They could finish her branch so beautifully in the last episode, why did she fly to Tatooine? Why did you even think that this child was important to Anakin? Why kill him?
The only thing that pleases is the battle and the appearance of Qui-Gon. Finally, Obi Wan showed who is the coolest here. And Anakin's speech, along with Darth Vader's voice, is fine.
In general, I remember when I watched the Mandalorian and it gave me goosebumps how much this series was imbued with the spirit of real animals that I love so much.
In the same series, they managed to bring EVERYONE back, except that they didn't show Yoda alive, and the moments that somehow hooked me can be listed on the fingers.
Very bad straight. And the most annoying thing is that it is unlikely that Ewan Mcgror and the others can be persuaded to such an adventure for season 2. That is, there is no hope that things will get better in the future.
The musical accompaniment for four, in the same 3rd part of the song, was so dramatic to listen to and see the ongoing battle between the two brothers.
And how surprised and delighted I was to see Qui-Gon! Thanks for that.
3 of my favorite epic characters are back in one place.
And within the framework of these realities, the series is excellent, all the necessary meetings have been completed, everything that needed to be said has been said.
Well, considering how little Princess Leia (for a moment, a very rare good example of a female character) is in the franchise, I'm glad that she's being revealed at least this way.
Well hello
I liked the fight between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader. The ending is good, I hope there won't be a second season.
I'm not really a fan, I've never watched anything but movies. Therefore, maybe my indignation is unjustified.
But I don't understand how Vader could merge like that. He's been pumping since the last meeting. I learned more about the dark power. He is wearing a space suit that causes pain on cd, thereby improving communication with the dark side. And Obi-Wan defeated him even harder.
And why the hell didn't he kill him?(I read here that the Jedi don't do that) Or he didn't take him prisoner to be killed by someone else. And this conversation in which Darth Vader for some reason lightens Obi-Wan's burden by saying that he is not to blame for anything. It was his teacher who disfigured him so much. If he didn't want to kill him, he dragged him away and at least put it out.
If it weren't canon, I would have asked why he didn't try to turn to the bright side, didn't say that he had children, that Sidious took advantage of him in a difficult moment, since he returned to the path of the Jedi himself.
If the end of the duel had been Vader throwing stones at Obi-Wan, it would have made more sense. Moreover, I have already read comments somewhere that Darth Vader did not look for Obi-Wan in part 4 and thought that he was dead.
And in the end, Vader's gestalt was not revenge, but the absolution of Obi-Wan's "sins."
Qui-Gon had zero meaning in the end.
The moment with the Roar of a solid cringe. She had previously gone all over the galaxy killing everyone, including force-sensitive children, and then changed her mind. Although she had a lot more motivation than before.
It would be better to end up with Obi-Wan trapped under the rocks. Darth Vader stands on a hill. And then, after some time, they show how Darth Vader let go of the past and informs Sidious about it. How Leia is brought home. If necessary, about Reva, they show how she watches a happy family, changes her mind about revenge and goes off into the sunset.
And already in the second season, they show how Obi-Wan gets out and his new adventure begins.
If there is a second season, I hope they will work on the bugs and it will be more interesting!🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽
If the Mandalorian was an independent and independent work that was liked not only by fans, but also by a completely inexperienced audience, and Boba Fett's Book was a piece of cake, but which could be viewed with at least one eye, especially under the impression of the previous series, then Obi-Wan Kenobi is pure fanservice, parasitizing the fan love for the frontmen from the first three episodes.
By and large, take Ben and Anakin out of here, and what's left is the bottom line? For five episodes, the Inquisitors follow in the footsteps of young Leia, so that in the last episode she can safely fly home on a shuttle. That's about it. Directed by Robert B. Weide.
So it turns out that the whole project is based solely on Obi-Wan's reflection on his padowan, which does not translate into anything specific. Kenobi is not trying to bring Anakin back to the fold of the light side of the Force, he is not trying to reach the echoes of Skywalker's consciousness, which is still smoldering in fragments in Darth Vader's head. And the dark Lord himself has no plans for his former teacher. Literally their entire confrontation is explained by the concept that Darth Vader is bad and Obi-Wan is good.
Well... Okay, cool. But why make a series about what we already knew? Apparently solely for the sake of luring fans with their favorite and popular characters. And there's nothing wrong with that, but it's kind of small for a massive multi-million dollar franchise.
After all, you have a huge fantasy universe. It would seem that there are so many plots, so many unsolved heroes and characters. But instead, you're trying to sell an absolutely empty piece that the guest stars are trying to pull out of the previous installments.
If I approached the previous series in a very complimentary way, although Boba Fett's Book already looked much weaker than the Mando movie epic, then Obi-Wan Kenobi is frankly weak.
As they say, hello to the fans, and my condolences to the rest of those who watched.
Meanwhile, Kathleen Kennedy said that if fans want, they can get a second season of the series. And, to be honest, it's better not to. Although, if you call Favreau and Filoni, it will be cool, they will take it out. And there was a rumor that they could make their own series about the Third Sister, but do we need it? The character turned out to be extremely flat and uncharismatic, and the actress, let's be honest, knows how to act out only two emotions - a poker face and an evil face.
In general, I expected more, to be honest. I won't say that Kenobi is frankly terrible, but the series is frankly a bit long-winded and boring. You could have tried much better.
P.S. Qui-Gon's sudden appearance as a ghost of power is definitely a good Easter egg, although his appearance was predictable.
I read that the shooting took the minimum amount of time (out of ALL the series) - 4 months. And yes, it would have originally been a feature film, until the Solo flop happened.
There is no need for a second season unless another creative and administrative team, starting with Caitlin Kennedy, does it. The main characters are the plane itself and stilts.
The emotions at the end and the holed helmet - it was cool, but the topic, it feels, is not fully disclosed... And Hayden wasn't enough..
The motivation of all the characters is written on the knee.
The mouse house is sucking all the juices out of the franchise.
Fanservice for the sake of fanservice.
The last two episodes are passable, but what did they say that was new?
Filler and that's it
The first three episodes were just normal / good, the fourth series began to scare, because it was much weaker, although there were familiar things for everyone, but how good the 5th and 6th series came out...They're just something. I don't need season 2.
But the Third sister still turned out to be more of a cringe than a creep.
And how well the original trilogy and the prequels combined.
After taking such a high bar as a Mandalorian, I don't even want to watch this series...
The series could certainly have been more intense. But if you review it, there are also ragged episodes and characters that are not always prescribed.
And if there is an Obi vs Anakin episode 2 and 3 line, then there are so few and crumpled in episode 4 and 5 that it was this meeting after the battle in season 3 that was missing.
And they can't kill each other.
Just as Batman needs the Joker, Obi needs Darth, they are opponents, but they are still Jedi and friends.
Obie doesn't finish off Anakin in season 3, even though it would be more humane, given his injuries, to leave him to die a hard death.
I feel sorry for Anakin in general, both the Jedi, Palpatine and Luke went out on his guilt and thirst to become the first and the best.
Personally, I didn't like the kind of detachment of the story: there are very few scenes with extras, scenes of everyday life, jokes. The locations are almost always semi-empty, with very little ent.
But I really liked the sword fighting performances. It turns out that our Russian girl worked as a movement assistant and she also set Vader's gait.
Vader, by the way, is epic, and it doesn't surprise me why he and Obi Wan can't kill each other. There will always be a part of Anakin living in Vader, we all know how the canon ended.
And, bravo to the actress playing little Leia. I got into the character very well.
... It would have been a good series with a small budget. One does not contradict the other.
It was incredibly nice to see the old actors!
The story itself turned out to be quite interesting, although in some places not everything was revealed in the plot.
I'll give the series a 5 for the atmosphere and the actors!
It's a pity, of course, that there are only 6 episodes, I would like more🌝
And finally:
"Hello There"
1. Why do communication devices in a distant galaxy not have personal data protection and anyone can view your "text message"?
2. How did the Third Sister guess that a certain boy mentioned in the message is the son of that very farmer named Owen?
3. If a cruiser cannot shoot down a successfully maneuvering ship, why didn't they release interceptor ships?
4. Why wasn't the crew of the cruiser instructed in the style of "if I don't come out of there, shoot"?
And after watching the whole season, there's only one question: why are the royals so poorly guarded in those parts?
Overall, I liked the series (I didn't just try to figure something out in advance, and I just enjoyed watching the series).
Well, no kidding, everything ended well. The choreography of the fights once again plunged into the youth of watching the first trilogy on the big screen. A face-to-face conversation with Anakin should have taken place, I personally needed it, many thanks. This brought the final line and closed all the issues in the relationship between Kenobi and Anakin in the outline of the first trilogy.
If my memory serves me correctly, Kenobi uses the same sword that Luke Skywalker will later have. It was only in this episode that I noticed it.
1. HELLO THERE
2. Half of Vader's mask is blown off, as in the battle with Ahsoka (very painful, thank you)
3. A glimpse of Anakin as he absolved Obie of blame.
4. HAYDEN. (my opinion, but he shouldn'T have made his face look younger. Yes, they're older, but at least they got into a fight without a frozen cgi face)
5. Qui-Gon! Finally!
A great roller coaster with lots of nostalgia. I'm glad that Finali Obi and Anakin were shown between the VK and the original trilogy and allowed to delve into Kenobi's depression and Vader's obsession, who lives on revenge instead of air :')
In fact, it's a good piece to find out what happened between episodes 3 and 4, because this part is shrouded in mystery. In my opinion, it's pretty good. I'm not an ardent fan of the Star Wars canon, but as I understand it, they really didn't have the opportunity to give more scale to the action because of the time when the events took place. That's why they're stomping around and can't just stupidly kill someone important. But these little things, for me personally, do not interfere with viewing. I saw familiar faces, was happy and sad for them. Thank you.
We are waiting for the series about Cassian Andor.
I agree with many, the series didn't turn out the way everyone expected it to. Black Sister has received too much attention during the storyline. It's sad that she was put on a good path, but they couldn't bring out the character. And it's really sad that two holes from the holy sword don't kill now, even though one was enough before (although if you remember, Darth Mall survived being cut in half, due to his hatred and unfinished business, OK). We are now waiting for a review in the next projects, most likely.
The fight between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader was abominably staged. An action movie in the style of the latest trilogy with lots of close-ups and camera shake. I was hoping for a level of 2-3 episodes and cartoons (haha). And in general, it's powerful, I don't argue. But here we come to the main problem of the series - the addition of Darth Vader played by Hayden Christensen. Yes, the original script included Darth Mall, but the actor took a shit in his life and was canceled by the studio. Oooooey. But adding it purely for the audience's response is a dubious decision. Although, on the other hand, the canon of this time period is quite rubbery. And there's nothing wrong with inserting a few fights between a former teacher and a student. The only downside is that everyone already knows that none of the characters will deal a fatal blow. Therefore, in the future I would like to see more interesting scenario solutions from Disney. Otherwise, every new project about your favorite characters will be drowned in the fecal matter left behind by the newest trilogy.
, thanks for Qui Gon and the battle of DV and Kenobi in the last episode
, although it ended stupidly, but at least it was epic
The girl who played Leia did a great job, but of course her escapes are ridiculous
I only got a deuce because of McGregor and fanservice. Otherwise, it's a total failure.
The fight is good
But the plot is just something with something
full of seams. You watch and sometimes you don't understand the motivation of an action.
Vader, who still remembers what kind of fighter Kenobi is and makes such mistakes. Vader, who selected the Inquisitors as his troops to search for the Jedi, and passes the youngling who will take revenge without torture.
The plot is a hat, and I'm even glad that it was closed.
almost all the battle scenes are absolutely miserable, boring and made to drag out screen time.
Obi-wan does not kill Vader because he becomes uninterested in him. And Obi-wan does what he usually does-he doesn't kill for no reason. It operates according to the code.
The final conversation helps to pacify Kenobi. As he says himself in a dialogue with Reva: That she was free now, too.
Obi-wan was tormented by guilt, his brain was clouded and he existed and bent. So all this stuff helped Kenobi get rid of the burden of guilt. And Vader helped to do it. "I killed him myself." There was no happiness, but misfortune helped.
Yes, he was being cowardly, and he could have taken down Vader, if it was already clear that there was nothing left of Anakin there and there was simply no one to talk to.
And that's where Reva was needed for color. That both Anakin and she were passionate about revenge, anger, and fear. But one completely fell, and the other was able to turn away from the path and admit her pain and fear. And Obi-wan helps to embark on a bright path here. Just like in Christianity, Saint Peter killed everyone, and then became a Mega-Christian) but it didn't work out with Vader. But Luke did)
But! The meeting with Quaigon has become even more valuable!! As we can see, Obiwan had a lot of pens and he was not ready to meet with his teacher until he dealt with his sorrows, despondency and sorrow. Not at all Jedi-like)
So Kenobi became really cool from a spiritual point of view just after communicating with Quaigon.
So the whole cowardice thing can be justified to Ben, because at that time he was carried away only by his guilt. But if this scene had been after Quigon's training from the Force, then I'm sorry, you could have safely thrown piss rags at the scriptwriters.
As was done in the new trilogy, when Luke Skywalker was turned into a paranoid crazy grandfather.
Obviously, if anything is going to be born, it's clearly about Roaring, and Obi-Wan is purely on backup dancing.
But she doesn't go into complete denial that there won't be a second season. I wouldn't be surprised if Disney eventually decides to return to the series.
Obi Wan's character is iconic in the STAR universe. He doesn't deserve this series.
In general, it's like a bad dream to forget.
In general, after tons of Haight, I expected the worst. It's not that bad, but it's not good enough.
"Anakin?"
"Anakin is gone. I am what remains"
"I'm sorry. I’m sorry, Anakin. For all of it."
"I am not your failure, Obi-Wan. You didn’t kill Anakin Skywalker… I did."
—Anakin is gone. I'm all that's left.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Anakin... for everything that happened.
"I'm not your fault, Obi-Wan. You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker.… I killed him.
