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

I felt zero tension over leia's torture scene. Like Disney is going to show a child being tortured. The whole thing was stupid.

Just frustrated with stuff meant for nine year olds, i think.

That had to be one of the most stupid scenes in all of Star Wars

Close, but not quite....

Were we supposed to care about that random Rebel guy btw? They really dwell on his death but he had maybe 30 seconds of screentime across 2 scenes.

Feels weird, like they cut a bunch of stuff out; especially since it was only 30 mins.

Had we seen that guy at all prior to the T-47 attack in the episode? I honestly can't remember so needless to say I was very confused at the treatment of his death. Bizarre. Speaking of bizarre - the movement of the T-47s...what....what was that?

so whats the explanation for the tomb? None of em look familiar except the youngling

Thought it was weird he was wearing the helmet like as if it wouldn't be recognized that this was a child Jedi. Admittedly that's a total nitpick.


Less of a nitpick is how the increasing Leia/Obi-Wan bond, though nice, is completely pointless because it will never be referenced or even hinted at again after this show.

Did I miss something, or did Reva seriously tell Vader that she let Obi-Wan go on purpose, but she put a tracker on him so that they can track Obi-Wan, so that they can get him that way again...?
Sure she said they will also find the Rebels that way, but then she immediately says something to the extent of "Obi-Wan is all that matters now". The logic of this show...

They seriously put this in a canon SW show...?



And Obi-Wan hacking away at Stormies and finally killing them after 3 strokes reminded me of the Lego SW game my son plays.

The parallels with Leia’s rescue from the Death Star in ANH while obvious were still well done for the most part. Obi-Wan’s misdirecting stormtroopers, Leia’s resistance to having her mind probed, placing a tracker on Lola, etc., all nicely done.

Except it's going to make Leia's line in TLJ about being tracked through lightspeed even sillier now.

"They tracked us...through lightspeed."

"But that's impossible."

"Yes, and they've done it."

Should be changed to:

"They tracked us...through lightspeed."

"But that's impossible."

"Dude they've been doing that since I was 10 years old."

I'm waiting for next week when the ruin --

"No ship that small has a cloaking device."

Entire squadron's of cloaked TIEs

They already showed a trooper get cut in half by a laser fence, Vader brutally killing adolescents and families in camera, a child being brutally mentally tortured and a frozen dead kid.

But where they draw the line is Obi-Wan using his saber on stormtroopers, really?

They go with safe for kids Jedi Fallen Order rated PG swings…

BUT then cut back to a child still being interrogated and mentally tortured!

There's no point looking for any kind of logic or sense in this show, it's such a mess I don't even know what to think or feel anymore about the brand.

I don't think they could **** things up anymore, even if they tried.

BOBF was horrendously embarrassing, but this thing... it's just... draining.

NEW Obi-Wan series Hasbro SS revealed MUST OWN!

The action in this show has been pretty poor honestly. Reva just standing in front of the poorly comped in Snowspeeder randomly twirling her lightsaber and “deflecting” the blaster bolts genuinely looked worse than some stuff I’ve seen in shoestring budget fan films.

I don’t hate this show, I’d give it like a 6/10 so far as it’s slightly above average, but it’s just so sad that this is what we got after waiting all these years…

This is where the fun begins.

I have to disagree.

Boba was plainly joking and ****ing around in that scene. A stupid joke, but okay a joke - and the Tuskens wont know the difference.

Knocking Stormies out by slapping them on the helmet is just egregiously stupid. When is someone competent going to write this s***? I mean, when? Never? Is my guess.

Same. Expectation a little higher than the show delivered. Thankfully enough good to outweigh the bad to keep it on positive side of the spectrum…..a full point woulda been earned if V came in and straight out chocked R out, dropped her dead carcass on the floor

Wow I cant wait for Ahsoka. Imagine throwing Ezra Bridger into the mix. Oh yeah. We are gonna rock and roll for that one.

Hate the show all you want but I will say this…

Vader walking fast with that loud tone of voice has to be the most intimidating and scary Vader has ever been!

YES…EVER!

Like I’m used to him lumbering around or walking slow on OT/RO kicking ass but that scene was a whole new type of Vader, a first actually!

No, that was TM's Boba looking like a complete buffoon while trying to convey an idea to the Tuskens, all the more idiotic by his chosen form of communication - "Hey, rather than learn a few Tusken words/phrases, I'll just speak slowly in English and combine that with hand gestures". I mean, it's more on Favreau than TM, but it's still moronic.

I'll have to revisit that scene. I assumed she used some type of weapon (shiv, mini-Taser, toxin, etc.) to neutralize those two guards. If not, Tala's the undisputed queen of the b*tch slap!
