Speaking of dead... I just watched the first episode of Kenobi.
It was terrible. Other than the already established cast, the new casting was like a really bad film school short. The worst offender was that Reva. The exchange between her and China-Joe in the "alley" was perhaps the worst scene I have ever seen. It was like the director said "do it at half speed". But then, the majority of direction felt uninspired and left with a "they'll fix it in editing" mindset.
No energy, no genuine drama, just drab meandering through familiar settings.
Once again, hollow music.
The opening scene made no sense... unless of course Reva in among the group in that moment. We'll see if the writer's are that clever.
Obi-Wan buries his lightsaber but keeps his Republic Jedi communicator? OK.
I don't know. I just don't know. Perhaps this episode should have taken Obi-Wan's advice: go out into the desert and bury it.
I bet you anything, if they started with a crawl and Episode 2 it would be better: Obi-Wan Kenobi has been called out of retirement to help rescue a kidnapped Leia...
That's all I need...
