      After watching the first two episodes, I made a guess as to what her motivations were, that she is an inquisitor trying to get after Kenobi because Vader/Anikin hurt her in some way in the past, and she’s rising the ranks in order to get close to Vader and get revenge, without care for the people she hurts and kills along the way.

    The scene of Reva interrogating the Tatooine people drives me off the wall, cuz how does she know if they’re hiding the Jedi or not? Instead of using sneaky tactics to figure out what’s going on, why does she jump straight into “Tell me what i want or i’ll hurt you”? If someone doesn’t know, how is that gonna help her get the information she wants? Why not offer rewards to a city infamous for having SKETCHY HUSTLERS? Reva and the Inquisitors are so comically evil, it makes zero sense how they’re supposed to be running things. Dictators are need people in order to be dictators.
    Anyway, great video J! Hilarious as always! I like your jellyfish paperweight.

    Explain to me why Leia had to know she was adopted? That could have stayed hidden, til a certain age. Oh, I know. So they could have that scene with the kid being an A hole to her. What, Bail's wife didn't look pregnant. You could wear a fake belly for several months. Boom, done. We had a kid. The plot of kidnapping Leia would have been better if A: It wasn't Leia. But Bail himself. B: It's Leia. But because Obi Wan is a friend to Bail. Could have demanded only Obi Wan is the person they want to rescue her. If he doesn't show up in four days, she dies. If Bounty hunters are used. She instantly dies. Why can I think of that explanation for a reason to get Obi off the planet. While these writers can't.

    Okay, mid-tier ish Star Wars fan here, that "Jedi Code is an itch" thing has frustrated me since the trailer for this dropped and I still hate it.
    What about "There is no emotion, there is peace; There is no ignorance, there is knowledge; There is no passion, there is serenity; There is no chaos, there is harmony; There is no death, there is the Force" implies some sort of inherent urge to help people or some irresistible call to action? If anything, the Jedi were about resisting "itches" and trying to understand the bigger picture. There have been times in the distant past that the Jedi didn't help people, if they thought it served the greater will of the Force.
    ... And yeah, the clones in the prequels marched en masse up to the Jedi Temple and began their slaughter. We see a shot of the clones at work in the movie too, it's an outright war zone. The rooms in the Temple would have to have fantastic soundproofing (which they clearly don't) to not be able to hear the attack.

    As much I am sick of seeing it, this show would have benefited more if it took place on Tatooine only. Out of all the shows and spin-offs that they’ve been pumping out, Kenobi was the one where setting being the sand planet felt the most logical. But no! All of a sudden Disney doesn’t want to use Tatooine and needs Obi-wan to go to all kinds of planet to have more slap fights with Vader cause fanservice.

    Just realize something; Luke and Leia actually do have cousins on Padme's side of the family, Pooja and Roooja. Why hasn't there been a show explaining where they've been? Granted it would only be one of them as Disney had Padme's sister be a single mom by choice but would they die right after "Revenge of the Sith"? Would they grow up to fight the Rebellion to avenge Padme and Anakin? And, after "Return of the Jedi" would they lead a witch-hunt on anyone related to the Empire that could lead to Luke and Leia's parentage getting exposed?

    The issue with a obi wan show imo, at it's foundation, is because a proper one would be similar to the mandalorian with a older figure taking care of a small, cute younger one. It'd probably need to be a slow burn drama with minimal action focusing on obis mental state, the trauma post order 66, mustafar, prior traumas, having to lose himself and everything he knew all to defend Luke primarily. Maybe even have him get close to going to the dark side or at least breaking, having anger at all that's happened, at his loves being lost, his friends and who was as close to him as his brother, and eventually throughout the show maybe he encounters a very young Luke doing something like asking him what was wrong and holding his hand, maybe he is able to save people semi discreetly that help him feel like he still has the ability to help others. The star wars and lightsaber stuff would be minimal unless they tried to include a time skip with final maul encounter, which would still be less epic fight and more of the emotional impact and "bond" between characters. Book of boba, mandalorian and obi wan all having the same formula is infinitely wasted potential that puts a bad taste on characters even beyond the shows. Disney's just going to ride the Ms marvel MCU attempt and star wars into the dirt, go "whoopsie didn't expect RACISTS", and not give af. Legendary franchises, gone, with reboots of the original content on the horizon to destroy anything that remains.

    Wait, the Jedi legit escaped from the inquisitors? The way that scene went it seems like they let him go so he would lead them to more Jedi. He actually does this when he goes to Kenobi. I had expected the inquisitors to pop out in that scene all like “haha we let you go and you led us to the most wanted man in the galaxy get rekt,” but that didn’t happen. Seriously what was the inquisitor’s plan in that scene? One of the worst things entertainment can be is confusing.

    Seriously, when the Organas were trying to guilt trip Kenobi into going after Leia, the one thing on my mind was “you have money, resources, influence, armies, trackers, mercenaries and all sorts of connections at your disposal and you’re going to act helpless towards a guy who’s all alone, hiding in a desert?” Like, they literally had one job, and they were acting as if it’s on Obi Wan to protect both kids, when Organa decided to take Leia with him.

    • @insulttothehumanrace3807
      @insulttothehumanrace3807 Рік тому +1

      And then to act like Kenobi's hesitance to act is because of his guilt and self-pity from the Clone War days, which... is further idiocy, as if this episode needed *more.*
      Kenobi is hiding for the same reason other Jedi are hiding: the Empire, the main governing power in the galaxy right now, wants all Jedi dead. Kenobi venturing out is especially risky since 1. Kenobi is one of two surviving members of the Council, and one of similarly few living Jedi Masters, so his knowledge is very important to keep around to 2. train Luke, the kid of supposedly equal importance to the girl that Bail can't be bothered to hire help to retrieve.
      (And on that note, I do want to say you have been very insightful in your replies to point out that, being an important political figure, Bail Organa really should have been better prepared for Leia being kidnapped regardless of her true heritage. That's a great point.)

      And yes, Organa is a politician, every politician, especially one who openly goes against the government, should be prepared for something like that. Security detail everywhere, report of suspicious moves and people, cameras are the least he could do. Leia sneaking in and out should’ve been enough to alert him that she’s constantly exposed to outside dangers. Again, her true heritage only adds to the stupidity of how loose and unprotected he’s left her to be.

    Screw this series. Vader orders the entire ship to turn around for Obi-Wan, letting the rebels go, (instead of using a magnetic beam, or sending tie-fighters, or just keep firing...)... but ends up getting into his shuttle and flying after it himself , thus missing out on the rebels for no reason at all. Obi-Wan trusts Leia to some random rogue who has already seeded his transmitter...
    The duel with Vader is miserable. They wave their swords like baseball bats in episode 9, and the Force has generally turned into an anime - they crush rocks and make craters in the ground, but they can’t break each other’s bones in the same way ... they can withstand the blows of multi-ton boulders ... Obi-Wan, without jokes, becomes a god thanks to the power of friendship and lifts weight much more than Yoda ... at some point he hits Vader with the HILT of the sword ... cuts his back, but that doesn’t paralyse him ... and most importantly, he doesn’t finish him off for the second time, although he himself said his friend is dead...
    Vader does not call the cruiser to shoot down Obi-Wan's ship, but it turns out that he has a hyperdrive, which makes the whole last episode even more pointless, since he and Leia could fly to Alderaan on it all this time already at the end of episode 4 .. .
    Owen and Beru do not set any traps for Reva in the doors, they only shoot her one at the time, do not catch up with her on a speeder, do not evacuate on the speeder, do not call the local police, the same Jabba the Hutt (with the promise of money), and Luke is advised to run on foot into the desert, to the Tuskens...
    Reva with a hole in her HEART can easily fight, run and carry weights ... And finally, she, who cuts off the hands of all those who disagree, throws knives at people, kills everyone in her path, hunts the Jedi trying to kill them, tortures a 10-year-old child , suddenly cannot kill Luke, because he sees himself in him (but not in Leah) ... by the way, why? Does she know he's Vader's son? How?
    And Obi-Wan forgives her, although he saw what she was doing and Tala died because of her...
    Now the whole Empire knows that Bail Organa communicates with Obi-Wan, they are looking for him all over the galaxy, but at the same time Obi-Wan quietly flies to Alderaan to chat with Leia...
    Obi-Wan communicates with Luke, although Owen told him in A New Hope that he died at the same time as his father ... Qui-gon, it turns out, can appear without any meditation, but the whole series did not do this ...
    As a result - Obi-Wan, Owen, Beru, Bale failed their missions to protect children, and they are only alive because the Empire and Vader are even more incompetent, and Reva suddenly became kind ... and now we are waiting for a series about her ... Thank you Disney, now you've ruined every single character in the original trilogy. Star Wars is long dead, and there's no more room for nails in the coffin.

Same for the actors of Dr. M'Benga, Jose Taylor and Christine Chapel; the casting feels so lazy. I wouldn't mind it so much but Discovery and the other shows are supposed to be prequel; the characters should look and act like themselves. At least the "Star Wars" prequels TRIED with their casting.
