Star Wars Obi-Wan Kenobi (tv series)

I think this is the big thing. And I get it. I was at the theaters watching Star Wars when it was literally just "Star Wars" -- the "A New Hope" title wasn't even conceived yet. It's been a big part of my life for the overwhelming majority of my life. I truly get caring so much about it.

But I also think that's part of the problem.

Sometimes people lose sight of the fact that the Star Wars universe is so vast and has been around for so long that it can mean different things to different people. Different aspects of it can be a "favorite." And more importantly, we as fans can choose which parts of it we don't care for.

Debating the details, even passionately, can be fun. It's part of fandom, to some extent.

But there are people out there, many of them making YouTube videos, declaring authoritatively that Star Was is now ruined, that the whole thing is going down in flames, and we should all rise up against whatever Disney is doing -- all because whatever Star Wars property is out now isn't for them. It doesn't have to be. The other stuff is still there.
I could not of put it better myself
 
Royalty and diplomats also have a security detail around them...Bail forgot that...thus, we have a whole series now because they forgot that interesting detail. Princesses also don't where open holsters but this is Leia were talking about which it's so blatantly obvious that there is no way in heck she knew Kenobi prior to ANH but its ok, we can conjure up so many crazy scenarios to justify why the series works with the OT when it just doesn't....honestly!! So Vader stabs Reva for the 2nd time and doesn't kill her, then throws her a lightsaber back...for what? Oh, to conveniently use it to go after Luke only to not go through with it and give up her lightsaber...come on folks...what was the point of him keeping her alive? We've seen Vader force choke people to death for lesser sins...He's done with her at that point. You can tell they tried to tie everything up in a little bow but that's the problem...it's not a natural flowing story...it's contrived to TRY to fit and it doesn't. That's the problem with doing a prequel...and gap filling. It will NEVER reach the standard of an original so trying to duplicate it invariably lowers the bar.
Some royalty do.. I've certainly seen some who flout it.. One sneaks into a certain pizza joint but we don't talk about them anymore..
I wonder if Revan has modifications already to her gut and she's an early version of those Cyberpunk kids(joke) no one went to her aid and gloated at her discomfort..
They acted like it was "Meerly a Flesh wound".. When Kylo stuck one to his father, Han almost instantly died or the fall killed him..
I remember seeing a What If on something that said in reality a Sabre would cause a person to literally explode with thrust wounds..
Ah maybe that's it Vader and Revan are both cyborgs?
Maybe Bail secretly wants rid of this Cukoo in his family?
He also knows she's a livewire difficult to rein in..

We have Prince Harry , Monte Python and Revan ( its Reva!!! ...blasphemy!!!) References in one post in a Star Wars thread...lol, I just had to laugh at that alone. Man ...you and I are 2 peas in a pod when it comes to humor...lol
 
I sent a friend of mine an article Andrew Liptak (edit to correct spell check) wrote about the 501st members in some of the episodes.

My friend replied back immediately that he didn't care for it, and it doesn't exist in his timeline. Pretty straight to the point, and I was ok with that.

At least he didnt say this afterwards, since he knew I liked the series

Its just like my RPF friends here - we can have a discussion that is at times funny, at times shocking/cutting in humor (looking at you Alley, you take that back about Jeffrey Tambor!), and to the point about where the stories worked, and where they could use some adjustments. From my view, the cast was great, and did everything possible with the material written.

...and we agreed Rogue One was the best Disney debut to the OT.

So....I said I was out but....they pulled me back in. So this Reva was a youngling that murdered dozens if not hundreds of Jedi's and ordinary people in order to get to Anakin/Vader and some people are ok with that? How far you have fallen. You expect me to just except that her and the garbage Feloni "Inquisitors" can survive a light saber through the spine.

They didnt even have the basic respect to de-age Hayden Christensen and Mcgregor for their prequal fight scenes? Are you kidding me? The most powerful media company in the entire world refused to spend the extra money to de-age them and you just accept that? Disney is an utter disgrace. YES, an utter disgrace. If you except this utter garbage as anything than utter garbage then you are 2022.

I can tell you right now..... The budget is going elsewhere.....
 
The budget is going elsewhere? Are you fkn kidding me? You are focusing on the two biggest characters of the PT and you cant smooth out their faces to try and match what they ACTUALLY looked like? You Disney apologists are without shame. Talk to me about Reva's motivation and application.
 
What has Luke Skywalker got to do with what I have posted?

Talk to me about Reva's motivation and application. Kill Jedi's and ordinary people or at the very least mutilate them in order to get to Vader. How do pi55 weak characters created by a cowboy hat wearing disgrace can survive a lightsaber through the spine move.
 
Can someone explain to me how Reva went from being stabbed through with a lightsaber and left for dead, crawling on the ground, as our heros escape in a ship with the bad guys close by, to instantaneously appearing on the planet that is furthest from strutting around without a hole in her cosplay outfit nor a taco bell tummy ache? Did I actually miss something!?

The official explanation according to Wookiepedia: "Somehow she did all that."

Well, I assume the empire took all the ships back to the start destroyer when they left, so she probably dialed 911 on that communicator she found and got saved by a space ambulance.

She had an additional piece covering her stomach tied with a rope. Owen noticed it during their fight and when he hit her in the gut she went down hard.

I can only guess both with Reva and the Grand Inquisitor the saber blade was off-center and missed their spine and only hit internal organs. Different than a blaster bolt, the saber blade will cauterize everything it touches so they won't bleed to death, they'll just lose the function of the organs damaged and nerves/vessels/etc..
 
Any theories why Obi-Wan didn't kill Vader even though he was swearing just minutes before that "Whether he dies or I do - it ends today?"
