Is this actually worth my time?
I am a lifelong Star Wars fan and have been really hoping for this to be good, but the recent Star Wars media being made (Rise of Skywalker, Mandalorian S2, Boba Fett) made me have no expectations for this to be anything but a misfire. I waited for reviews to come in before I bothered pirating it, but it seems so mixed and I can't make out if I should without spoiling myself. Is it actually worth the hours it will take to watch? Or should I just get spoiled by the YouTube reviewers?
just watch the final duel and the ending where kenobi returns to tatooine
This. Everything else was just backdoor pilot for a stronk independent black woman show and a show about lil Leia.
I hope they really do make the spinoff. It'll be fricking hilarious to see it crash and burn, no amount of "muh critics are racist" coping from Disney will save it.
cant wait to see the gaslighting about how well Andor is doing
>Everything else was just backdoor pilot for a stronk independent black woman show and a show about lil Leia.
the fact that we all know as we're watching it that this is why its a TV show and not a mini-series of a film is telling enough to just not watch it.
These hacks are making bullshit up as they go along filling in holes that never needed to be filled because its boring. This show has no right to exist but it does because they just wanna make more pointless shows and get you to care about Disney original ideas which suck shit anyway. Nobody gives a frick about Reva.
It’s not a film because Solo bombed. Star Wars is a dead franchise, this will be evident when they finally release another film and can’t hide the box office figures like they can with streaming numbers.
I’m trying to but it’s too dark 🙁
fpbp
Why cant they make kino like the prequels?
Don't as me, I just work here.
At least post Lucas then
But Disney-Wars is as good as the prequels.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
That's my point.
The prequels are largely shit outside of Anakin going dark in the second half of RotS.
I think the dialog is stilted, awkward and sometimes bad. The romance is completely MIA. And some of the comedy is a little too far Had Lucas been watching anime or something during the 90s, because JarJar is beyond annoying comic relief. Only comedy I hated during OT was Ewoks, so Endor kind of sucks to me. What I loved was the politicking during the PT, yeah some of the fights go on a long ass time which is again why I think Lucas started watching battle shounen during the 90s, he wanted his 5 minutes of namek.
>Why does Vader say he was the "learner" and now "the master" when he and Obi Wan "last met" during their duel on the Death Star?
because he got his ass kicked at the end of kenobi
meant for
Not really. I mean he somewhat lost but he also beat the shit out of Obi-Wan in the first two fights. He’s clearly no “learner” here and would likely best Obi-Wan 7 times out of ten
>because he got his ass kicked at the end of kenobi
So what? They were no longer in the master/student dynamic that they were in in Ep 3.
And it still doesn't explain all the other dialog in ANH
"We meet at last"
"Something I haven't sensed since..."
Of course this dialog doesn't really fit considering they met like 7 years ago.
hes the master and vader is the student as in obi wan is better than vader at the time, not in the literal sense
>hes the master and vader is the student as in obi wan is better than vader at the time, not in the literal sense
That's not what Lucas meant in ANH. It's not a "You were better than me last time...but I was better than you a few days before that...so yeah I will still say you were better than me and thus you were the master". It's so fricking shitty.
Not that anon but the original intent was Vader is now a master of the force in comparison to Obi-Wan than he was back in ROTS where he left Obi-Wan and the Jedi Order but had only been a Jedi Knight for four years and thus was still only a learner of the force in comparison to Obi-Wan who was a Jedi Master serving on the council and obviously had much more experience using the force.
Prime Vader lost to Obi-Wan and there is no forgiving that in respect to ANH.
I fully agree with how you feel about the prequels, I don't think George fricking Lucas was watching Dragon Ball Z though but I like to imagine he was
>I think the dialog is stilted, awkward and sometimes bad
>sometimes
It comes off as more stage play dialog most of the time. It's not all 'natural' speech, but I don't inherently hate the stage style, it's just not really appropriate. Also since the banter between anakin/obi goes back towards natural speech.
If the dialogue being stiff was all, it'd be great. But every line is so fricking idiotic it makes you question your sanity, whenever not directly copied from another work with an identical scene.
oh no, it rhymes, im out
like pottery
Don’t listen to these gayots. It’s best not to spend even a second of your time watching this filth
Nah that last fight was good, every other bit is complete trash.
What was good about it?
Vaders monologue and Ben's tears. I won't ruin it for you if you haven't seen it yet.
Is it good that Obi Wan let Vader live? Hell, is it good that Obi Wan even defeated Vader at all? Is it good that this show copied this scene from Rebels? Is it good that, despite all the bells and whistles, the main character of this show is still some random baboon?
I said that everything else is trash. Just that fight is worth watching. I have a soft spot for the prequels so it might taint my judgement but as a fan that's read a great many books and belives that the original trilogy died for our sins I seriously think you should at least give that one part a gander.
Obi-Wan should be a joke compared to Darth Vader at this point. He should not have won. Honestly why can’t we just do a Luke Jedi Order series? It would pull in 5x the ratings that Obi-Wan did. Or move back a thousand years and do Revan. Or just create a new civilization and mythology in Star Wars.
It’s hard to care about Star Wars after the Sequel Trilogy. Those movies just ruined everything about the Saga
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit. You're part of the problem.
Do not mention Revan. I have zero interest in having disney even thinking about that.
>why can’t we just do a Luke Jedi Order series?
Because there's no point. No matter how good it might be it will all end in Kylo killing everyone and leading into the sequels. Luke should have killed kylo in cold blood but he didn't and so he and everything he does will end in total failure.
Its clear Vader lost because he was still emotionally fricked up from his last duel and obsessed with revenge and victory. He had lost sight of the force on both the light and the dark side in that the light side is harmony seeking to serve the will of the force while the dark side is all about gaining power.
Vaders stength in the dark side of the force is all about ignoring or "destroying" Anakin. The whole revenge thing against Obi-Wan is acknowledging Anakin and forgetting the fact that the Dark side only gives itself to people who are cold, calculating and disconected.
Basically its like imagine if a millionaire business man decided to use his advertising budget to smear a local small business dealer he personally hated versus using that budget to go up against say Walmart.
Vader basically needs to accept that his power in the force is about letting go of stupid petty bullshit from his former meaningless life and moving on to the future.
Ironically its about learning his lessons that ObiWan taught him except applied to the opposite side of the force.
Vader is in a sense obsessed with proving himself to be the best and worthy that it blinds him to the fact that there is no final victory, there is no I within the force. There is only duty to the dogma that either side professes where the Jedi see it as compassion to help others and harmony within the force to seek all forms of unity and healing the Sith see the force as a means to dominate the weak and the stupid that the order of the universe is those of the strong and wise imposing their will on everyone else regardless of any sort of morality
Jesus Christ, this is the nerdiest shit I’ve read in a while. Have you ever had sex?
It was a pretty good final fight.
Got nothing on the Obi vs Anikan from ROTS though.
Shame there was an entire five episodes of trash before this.
episode 5 is not bad. Reva actually works when she’s interacting with Vader and not going OOK OOK OOK like she does with every other character she interacts with.
If you have to watch it's then this is the way to go. episode 6, although full of plot holes and shit-tier writing, will give you a couple of decent scenes. They really botches this by using a bait and switch for Reva.
>just watch the final duel and the ending where kenobi returns to tatooine
where can I find clips of this online
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit.
With good old Williams music that Disney is too cheap to put into anything at all.
The entire series should have been like that final episode. I'm baffled why they chose to make 5 episodes "baby Leia gets captured" filler episodes.
Someone made me laugh the other day by posting it's either criminal money laundering or criminal incompetence.
I think it's what happens when you allow 10 women to write a show without one man
It was written as a 2 hour film and got padded into a 6 hour TV show as they want subscribers for D+
Didn’t read this novel, but no, don’t watch this stupid ass show. It’s terrible, worse than the ST, worse than Book of Boba Cuck. The only way you’ll find enjoyment here is if you’re a Black person loving beta male
Uh, what.
I don't understand you guys, this show is way better than the sequel trilogy or Book of Boba Fett.
What did you like most? The forced sheboon who gets away with murder because muh trauma? The ways in which it directly contradicts lines in the OT? Obi Wan bumbling no less than twice in ways that directly compromised the safety of those in his care?
>forced sheboon
Jesus frick, you really are seething so goddamn hard over the fact that the Inquisitor antagonist happens to be a black woman, aren't you.
>gets away with murder because muh trauma
I'm sorry, aren't we talking about the franchise where Darth fricking Vader gets "redeemed" cause he doesn't want his own son killed?
>where Darth fricking Vader gets "redeemed"
He sacrifices his life to kill the primary source of evil in the Galaxy, and put the future in the hands of the rebellion. He gets redeemed by dying for a good cause.
Reva suffers no consequences for the Jedi she helped hunt and kill. For the lives she destroyed. Obi Wan let her walk way from assaulting the Lars family and attempting to murder Luke. Will she pay for it down the line? Who fricking cares.
>He sacrifices his life to kill the primary source of evil in the Galaxy,
Whom he willingly served and killed people for for two decades, and whom he only killed cause it was his own son getting zapped.
I mean come on, if he had survived he'd probably be judged before a rebel tribunal.
Sure. And at worst, they'd have sentenced him to death.
He. Paid. For. It.
He suffered consequences.
Reva did not.
>Reva did not.
Well, she might get her own quest for redemption, who fricking knows.
In case you don't know we only just got her turning away from the dark side, you can't really expect there to be much follow-up yet.
>you have to watch the spin off to get it
Frick you, and frick nu-wars.
She should be frickin dead. Vader is written horribly in this shit and morons are defending it.
>Obi Wan let her walk way from assaulting the Lars family and attempting to murder Luke.
She returned Luke alive.
What we would you have Obi-Wan do, duel her right there? That'd be fricking stupid.
>Thank you, Reva, for ending your hysteria just short of murdering an innocent. Truly, you are the sort of person I trust with knowledge that could bring the full might of the empire down on Luke's head.
She isn't thanked. Her decision not to kill Luke is quietly acknowledged, with relief, but without any explicit gratitude. Lars doesn't say a word and just takes Luke back inside.
Yes, and the lack of reaction is telling. She knows their secret. She knows where they live, who they're harboring, and who that's important to. Lars is cool with her trying to kill him and his wife in a fit of rage, and having that information, and just walking away? No comment, no nothing?
>What we would you have Obi-Wan do, duel her right there?
No, he should have arrested her right there, bound her up, and given her over to authorities, preferably to the people she tormented in Tatooine. She got off way too light for no reason whatsoever.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
hello moron
>better than the sequel trilogy
honestly I won’t argue on that. The movies have legitimate production value while this shit looks like a fan film. But i’d rather watch Ewan and Hayden than pathetic old characters being killed off while new uncharismatic characters pretend to cry over it. The fact that it’s 30 minute episodes instead of 7.5 hours of movies also feels less insulting.
>Better than Book of Boba Fett
idk. That show is fricking pathetic but Obi Wan is genuinely insulting at times with Reva OOK OOKing at beloved characters. Also that show felt like it had some production value to it
if Mandalorian S2 was below your standards this shit will give you a heart attack lol
You guys actually watch this shit I bet you secretly like it but pretend to hate it to be cool.
nah
nope it's soulless trash. star wars hasn't been good since empire anyway (revenge was ight)
I’m very critical of Disney Star Wars and I love Mandalorian Season 2.
it's worth pirating. first two episodes suck, and there's a lot of cringe shit in the final 4, but there's also some pretty cool scenes with vader and obi-wan
which ruin the canon and that final duel sucked
>dude what if the force made you superman (again)
>dude what if obi wan and anakin still heckin care about each other and have a heart to heart
>which ruin the canon
tfa did that. that's why all of you still watching this shit 7 years later are such moronic filth.
>tfa did that
The ST is godawful and completely ruined Star Wars. But all three atleast were visually decent, at times.
With Obi Wan, I seriously can not comprehend where the money is going. 25 mil per episode and it looks like some amateur fan project made by special needs high schoolers. This moronic show is THE worst single product made by Disney Wars.
>visually decent
Frick off, it was a lazy star wars veneer on something that felt nothing like starwars. You disgust me.
Reading comprehension isn’t your strongest suit, huh Black person
The visuals didn't do anything special. George broke new ground with every movie the sequels did nothing. You're suckjng mouse wiener 7 years later so it not like you ever liked star wars anyway.
Again, nice reading comprehension. I’m criticizing the Obi Wan show for being cheap and terrible, whereas the ST was terrible.
How does George even come up? I liked the prequels, why are u arguing with me like a petulant child?
Not that anon. Your reading comprehension is shit, too.
He's disagreeing with your claim that the sequel trilogy was at all visually interesting. That it wasn't cheap.
Ok, so Obi Wan is just as shit as the ST and the ST is just as shit as Obi Wan. Happy? The way you gays are sperging out makes it seem like you’re the ones sucking Obi Wan wiener
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
You claimed two things: That Obi Wan was shit, and that the ST was "visually interesting" at times.
Anon disagreed with your claim that the ST was visually interesting.
By not disagreeing with your claim that Obi Wan was shit, he agreed with that claim.
In other words, moron, you suck sequel wiener, and we think you're a homosexual.
Kys Black person lover. Obi Wan is the worst Star Wars content made by Disney. I stand by that.
Okay. That doesn't give the ST a single redeeming quality, and you're moronic for thinking it does.
and you’re moronic if you honestly believe that the Sequels don’t have a “single” good thing about them. Stop being brainwashed by your hugbox and think for yourself for once. Christ, you people are stupid.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
Autists having a meltdown because I dared to say Obi Wan was worse than the Sequels. It’s kinda funny t b h
I've already spelled it out for you. You made a specific claim regarding the redeeming qualities of the sequels. More than one anon disagreed with that specific claim. Nobody you quoted is defending Obi Wan, in any way.
Notice all the positive things said about the Obi Wan show in this very thread. Very little are getting push-back. Funny that. Honestly I think 99.9% of the ST are bad, but sure, keep arguing with people that agree with you. Surely that’s a great use of your time.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
We're both wasting our time posting about shit media on an a Laotion rug delousing forum.
I don't agree with your claim that the sequel trilogy was visually interesting.
I think your claims that others are autistic is projection, and your reading comprehension is shoddy at best.
shitskin Black person cope. Stop responding to me, schizo
Yeah, you lick shitty corn kernels and we're coping for calling you a homosexual. Is this cathartic for you? Does it help you survive another day in your pathetic life?
>Does it help you survive another day in your pathetic life?
Projection
Sure. I'm sure you're doing just fine. So fine that anonymous disagreement on the internet set you off.
Frick off mouse shill.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
>you disagree with me, so you're just parroting what others have said
Black person, I came about my opinions honestly. The ST never should have been made. You can enjoy picking kernels of corn out of a giant pile of shit all you want. I will not appreciate the corn.
the sequels are total shit and you sound like a huge homosexual
what is good about the basedquels
The Sequels don’t have a “single” good thing about them.
Why are you still sucking off mouse wars 7 years after they ruined it?
>yes fellow Cinemaphilener the sequels were good visually
It's the only thing worse than bad it's 'almost' good but wasted potential.
If you didn't like mando S2 you will HATE this slop.
As a whole it raped the lore and makes a bunch of unforgivable mistakes. It does have a few standalone good scenes. The final dual between Vader and ObiWan is great, but what was even better was what was said after the fight. That was actually top tier. Too bad everythi else about this show sucks phat dicks. Deborah Chow should never be allowed near the directing chair ever again.
Biggest Star Wars shill I know calls it a 7/10. So it must be absolute shit.
Never watching.
>Is this actually worth my time?
>I am a lifelong Star Wars fan
Hey man, I got roped into this when I was a dumb kid. I'm well aware that the prequels are dogshit, but some of what Disney has made has been alright, and I can't help but be curious when Star Wars is so close to my heart.
For me, it's to satiate my curiosity without wasting 6 hours of my life. I can listen to four YouTubers critique the show in an hour while I work out. It's no contest.
have a nice day shill
>some of what Disney has made has been alright
Your kind deserve all these new Disney products.
I don't think anything was great, but I did genuinely love that first season of Mandalorian, and I appreciated the two spin-offs and I even quite liked The Last Jedi. Please, tell me to kill myself now.
Sorry that my opinion isn't obsessively negative. I never even intended to legally watch this show. I don't know what you want from me.
Teletubbies is a poor example, Star Wars has always been family friendly, but the original trilogy was most certainly made for adults to enjoy just as much as for children. The franchise has, because of lethargy, fallen into a hole of becoming children's media, which I think is a shame and honestly a waste of money on Disney's part. If this is the quality of the television shows going forward, however, I'll just sit them out and wait for them to embrace another movie again.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
The Sequel Trilogy ruined Star Wars.
I agree, it was over after tfa
>Hey man, I got roped into this when I was a dumb kid.
Doesn't mean you can't grow out of it. I got roped into Teletubbies when I was 5, doesn't mean I have to be a lifelong fan of it. Star Wars is largely for children and has far more bad entries than good entries, let it die.
>I'm well aware that the prequels are dogshit, but some of what Disney has made has been alright
Oh you're a moron, nevermind.
Don't believe the homosexual shills lies. He's only here to promote disney wars.
It's fine. Worse than Mando, better than Boba. Not very memorable but an okay watch.
>"I am a lifelong Star Wars fan"
>didn't quit after the first prequel
So you enjoy eating shit? Disney products are perfect for you.
i was a pretty diehard star wars fan as a kid, but this show (and boba's) failed to hold my attention.
here. this is the only good part. the rest is garbage filler with some of the worse writing in all of starwars.
this shit sucks. imagine wasting your time and money watching this utter garbage. anime is far superior.
it's like empty, cheap drama for drama's sake, ngl
it was fine
>I am a lifelong Star Wars fan
PHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

PPPFFFF
PFFHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAAHHA
LMAO
>I want justice! she screams
>while attempting to murder an innocent child
Nobody there could stop her. Luke would be dead if she had the balls to go through with it. Instead, it was a short hysteria fit ending in teary affirmations.
To top it all off, she was allowed to walk away like nothing ever happened. Despite the fact that she's unstable and has knowledge that could jeopardize the fate of the galaxy.
"It's okay, strong woman of color. The only innocents you murdered were the jedi you spent a decade hunting, and you never have to answer for those crimes, because muh trauma. You can go be diverse and inclusive somewhere else, in your own show that we've been poorly grooming you for from the start."
>Youtube reviews
What are you, some kind of diseased manchild?
Just watch it. The middle two episodes suck, the first two and last two are solid.
Much better than the train wrecks that are Episode 9 and Boba Fett. Very conservative compared to them.
LMFAO at all the Disney shills in this thread. The show is fricking terrible.
>I am a lifelong Star Wars fan and have been really hoping for this to be good
Understand that the moment the franchise was sold to a conglomerate, it stopped being the franchise you love. It's just a product, and one meant for a completely different group of people to enjoy.
it's much much worse than mando s2, almost as bad as TROS, if not worse, haven't seen boba fett
Don't see Boba Fett, the worst television show I ever bothered to finish watching.
>almost as bad as TROS, if not worse
LIES.
No it isnt
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
If you didn't drop nu wars after tfa you never liked star wars to begin with.
Episode 6 can be skipped
All disney wars should be skipped.
In all honesty, it really isn’t worth your time. Especially if you’re a Star Wars fan. All these new Disney Star Wars products have been crap and Kenobi ain’t no exception. It does nothing except ruin legacy characters, do nothing with their new characters, and make the world building more stupid than it already was.
Worth it for Hayden Vader, IIMO.
frick off shill
It's utterly worthless, embarrassingly awful, insulting garbage. Not even worth wasting the time to watch it by pirating.
Anyone who defends this dogshit is a pathetic bugman.
It's five episodes of filler and one episode with a modicum of substance.
no.
watch it from where Obiwan is trapped in the rocks, then after the medicore fight is over, fast forward to Obiwan on tattooine.
bam, you are caught up
>caught up
Why would you keep up with disney wars? Fricking homosexual.
I just watched the good parts on YouTube. Let’s be honest, it’s the only shit that matters.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
>good parts
There are none, and if you think there are any then you're a consoomer bugman who needs to raise his pathetically-low standards.
Obi-Wan walking away from Vader DESTROYS his character and makes him the most hypocritical, lying piece of shit in the entire galaxy. If he is convinced Anakin is fully dead at this point, what possible rationale does he have for letting Vader live? Every life Vader takes after that is on Obi-Wan's head. And then he has the nerve to b***h Luke out for not wanting to kill him. Fricking homosexual.
How about you make your own decisions you spineless homosexual.
What made you waste 15 seconds of your time to type this?
I honestly watched it to laugh at it and its really not terrible. It didnt have to be Leia, that part was dumb fan wankery.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
No. /thread
absolute garbage
The series answers these burning questions we all had:
>Why does Obi Wan call Anakin "Darth" in ANH?
>Where did Luke get that toy T-16 Skyhopper?
>Why did Obi Wan REALLY tell Luke Darth Vader killed his father?
>Where did Leia get her blaster holster?
To do so, it only opens up these new plot holes:
>Why hide Luke on Tatooine if it's crawling with Inquisitors?
>Why does Leia address Obi Wan as if she's never met him in her message in ANH?
>Why does Vader say he was the "learner" and now "the master" when he and Obi Wan "last met" during their duel on the Death Star?
Also, it seems to set up that Obi-Wan is about to abandon Luke so we can get a bunch more seasons of Obi Wan doing stupid shit that doesn’t matter while further wrecking canon.
I haven't watched it but no, stop enabling this garbage
>Is this actually worth my time?
No
>I am a lifelong Star Wars fan
Grow the frick up
just watch the last episode
>im a life long star wars fan
yes moron its worth it, its like 6 episodes lol
It's really not. Reva and kid Leia detract from the show
It's only watchable at least once, no one can take that kind of cringe multiple times. BUT, if that fricking show had that mother fricker from your pic right there in it. It would've been kino. The Inquisition never should've set foot ON Tatooine or even be looking for Kenobi as that defeats the whole point of hiding there, same with then looking for Leia. The Inquisition should've been dedicating all of its resources in trying to find Mace Windu and his secret proxium base in some Asteroid field like the comics. Have WIndu send an agent to Tatooine to ask Obi-Wan to join him, and it would be the only time Kenobi would ever leave. But then upon arrival Kenobi senses how focused on revenge Windu is, and know its all doomed to fail and remembers his duty to Luke. He tries to plead with Windu but its no dice, so he leaves, and not even couple hours later several Destroyers appear and Darth Vader with members of the Inquisition land in Windus base and a battle ensues, all the Padawans, Knights and 3 Masters Windu had assembled to himself die, 7 of them to Vader alone. And then Vader personally deals with Windu and their fight would be legendary, and we see Obi-Wan feels their deaths when he lands back on Tatooine. He know Windu is gone, this fight would also show how Saw Gerrera would get all fricked up from Vader in the fight too, and him and his men are the only survivors as a Jedi gives their life for their escape.
Next Episode would be about how a particular Tusken Raider war chief had risen, and is leading many Tusken Raider Tribes in raiding all these moisture farms, and Owen whos representing a militia made up of the other farmers to prepare to meet the Tusken warband, and Owen asks for help from Obi-Wan, he even begins to plead for his assistance after Obi-Wan rejects. Owen tells Obi-Wan the Tusken Warchief weilds a Lightsaber in battle, and tells him if nothing else do it for the boy. Obi-Wan finally agrees and helps train the militia.
>Disney produces shit
>someone summed up brilliantly by stating they have a unique type of awfulness because they are obtensibly meant to be le adult and dark and mature but end up being juvenile
>random fricker on Cinemaphile posts much better story or kino revisions, be it for Book of Boba Fett, Mandalorian, or Obi-Wan Kenobi
Like clockwork. Also, Disney are hellbent on pussifying the Tuskens probably due to some neurosis over them being vicious flesh eating enslaving maniacs being heckin problematic and racist to Natives even those that's what some of them were historically

Continued
Young Luke is dropped off at his friend Biggs Darklighters place, and he gets his first glimpse at the fabled hermit Ben Kenobi, Owen and Kenobi set out to meet the Miltia at their chosen mustering ground. They had been training for close to a week under the Jedi Master, armed with long rifles, vibro-blades, and with some riding swoop bikes, they set out feeling more prepared than ever in the direction reports say the Tusken warband would be. After a ride where Owen and Kenobi have a discussion on whether even Luke will want the life of his father, they see the Tusken Warband in the distance and they're marching towards the Lars Homestead. The Warband catches sight of the military and veers toward them, both parties stopping a small distance from eachother. Obi-Wan quickly makes out who their leader is, who is sat upon the largest Bantha Obi-Wan had ever seen. The Tusken Warchief jumps down and walks towards the militia and stops about half way. Obi-Wan turns to Owen, "Wait here, don't do anything until I've returned" and walks toward the warchief.
"Master Hett, it has been too long"
"I wondered when we'd finally meet again Master Kenobi, I knew it was only a matter of time. I know of your duty to that traitors blood.
"Revenge will not bring back our brothers, my old friend."
"Do you really think anything good can come from that boy? Let me have him before the Empire does, let me free you. I'll leave the rest of the farms alone, you have my word.
"I cannot allow you to take the boy"
Obi-Wan ignites his Saber
"These men are more than ready for a fight here today, Asharad. Let this be decided between us.
"Very well Master, may our duel serve as justice upon you for your failure with Skywalker!"
Their lightsabers meet
Obi-Wan demasks Asharad Hett infront of his clan and takes his right hand, the hand a Tusken chief must use to weird their Tribes Gaderffii stick.
Hett asks Obi-Wan to finish it, and kill him. Obi-Wan refuses this, and has Hett swear on his father that he leave Tatooine and never return again. Hett accepts.
Obi-Wan watches as the Tusken Tribes disperse, eachone heading back to their Tribes land, and the leave their once vengeful Warchief beaten and alone. The militia of farmers are all celebrating and congratulating Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan walks toward Owen and gets on his swoop bike and drives it to Hett, who's still on his knees looking down into the sands of Tatooine.
"Ride to the nearest spaceport, and leave. You are not past redemption my old Friend, even your father found it before the end."
"That's enough Obi-Wan, that's enough."
Hett gets on the bike Obi-Wan gave him, and before he drives off.
"We'll see if time proves one of us right. The boy has traitors blood in him Obi-Wan, you know, and I know it."
"I only see hope my old friend"
"Well I pray he doesn't diminish you of it one day"
Hett takes off on the bike
"And I pray your hate will not destroy you. But I see the hate you fight inside, and it is like that of a Dragon."
Obi-Wan Kenobi series would've been that perfect show to make Asharad Hett canon and thus also making Darth Krayt canon. Why the frick did disney reject this!? They gave us absolute shit!? People need to know what they could've had. This is an outrage, its not fair!
I made an edit of the show into a movie. I tried my best to cut out as much filler and bullshit as possible but unfortunately it's like the Phantom Menace where everything is interconnected. If anyone's interested currently uploading it but my upload speed is terrible. It's about 3 hours long give or take and I'm sure someone more competent than me could make it shorter.
Some notable changes off the top of my head:
>Cut out like 70% of Reva
>Almost zero mentions of Darth Vader until full reveal at the first showdown
>Cut out the entire baby leia chase sequence
>Cut out the order 66 intro since it served no purpose overall
>Obi wan is never seen with a blaster or shoots someone with it (I think I got every frame could be wrong

If this thread stays up I'll post link by tonight hopefully or sometime by tomorrow.
Tbh it still might be shit since it was a fun way to learn how to use Final Cut and learn to edit things for my youtube soon
I would unironically love to watch this, I'll stay tuned tomorrow for this to get uploaded and hopefully I can watch it before some kind of DMCA come along
I had it on the background and caught a frame of obi-wan with a blaster during that scene when imperial lady shows up. I'm going to redo the upload and fix it in final cut. I'm assuming watching it over and over again has made me numb to the stupid shit in the show.
Here's darth vader showing up about 50 minutes in
I'll probably make a thread tomorrow so be on the lookout or in whatever obi wan thread still on the front page.
hey man, I'd be interested in this. I have no interest in watching obi wan because of all the bullshit, but I'd watch that.
Get the mouse wiener out of your mouth
Waiting on dis
have a nice day
Post it. Even when competently edited, I imagine it would still be extremely mediocre. The main problem is that there's no real story to be told. Reva's whole purpose for existing makes no sense and the whole story hinges on her nonsensical motivation.
So she wants to kill young Luke because...? And she wants to do this after losing to the person who actually killed all of the younglings at the jedi academy? Why?
You're on Cinemaphile. How much could your time be worth to begin with?
I’m going to give you a legitimate answer that I would give to a normie irl.
The first 4 episodes a pure fricking filler. I can’t even tell you what happened in each of those episodes aside from Obi Wan and baby Leia get chased. Episodes 5 and 6 are okay Star Wars, but with a serious fan film vibe to it. The direction of the show is legitimately terrible and it has some of the worst acting in all of Star Wars.
Reminder: only racist chuds hate Reva
Even a super cuck to woke homosexualry like agitated Alejandro hates Reva.
Me I can just tune her out because I have developed automatic Black person blocking as a response to modern television.
You could just stop watching mouse wars.
I'm okay with most of tv mouse wars. Obi-wan was infinitely better than book of boba fett.
The Mandalorian I actually enjoy.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
The few mandalorian parts in boba fett were infinitely better than the entirety of obi-wan
Imagine actually drawing this
as much as I hate disney star wars and KK I have to say doomcuck and people who endlessly consoom Star Wars under the guise of “hate watching” are infinitely bigger homosexuals
>Ben, did I ever tell you about that time some random sith invaded my uncles farm for seemingly no reason and chased me around the desert?
>She was a good friend.
>Luke, did I ever tell you about the time I could have killed darth vader but didn’t, resulting in many more innocent deaths and the destruction of a planet
It’s so goddamn dumb it’s horrifying.
They could have come up with a good idea to stop the fight like imperial troops running in with blasters or Tie Fighters, or anything that wouldn’t ruin Obi-Wan forever
If you want to see Star Wars ruined forever by all means.
Otherwise this shit is fan fiction and doesn't exist.
Yes, you should watch it for the best scene in episode 6. Pic related.
>Luke, did I ever tell you about the multiple occasions in which your whereabouts were compromised, and I had to defend you, the most important life form in the galaxy, from Imperial Inquisitors who definitely would have disclosed your location before just showing up and dying. Also, that girl in the hologram is your sister, so you should probably not get such a boner whenever you see that image. And she was a good e-girl.
>And she was a good e-girl
Reminder that Obi-Wan has been nonromantic the whole franchise and now this is the most lines he's ever had with a female. And that the last thing he called her was Princess. This show is low key fricked up
Follow the golden rule of streaming shows.
Watch the first ep fully, then watch the recap before each other episode, then watch the last episode fully.
You're posting on here. Don't act like your time has ever been worth anything.
He's just a shill for disney wars. It's a shame you won't stop watching everything they shit out.
this is the finest live action star wars content since Revenge of the Sith and i say that as a fan of some of the new stuff.
>as a fan of some of the new stuff
don’t listen to this guy he clearly doesn’t value his time
im not even a guy lmfao
we’ll you’re definitely not a woman
>Is this actually worth my time?
If you're seriously asking that and can't work it out based on the decades of atrocious garbage that that "franchise" has pumped out then you may as well just bloody watch it. It's your funeral, buddy.
Luke, did I ever tell you about the time I easily defeated your father in a duel? After defeating him I realized he had already been killed by Darth Vader so I spared his life. He went on to kill millions of innocents. He was a good friend.
god is that really how it ends? How braindead are the women behind this that they feel the need to explain the fact that Obi Wan didn’t see his friend in Vader anymore Do these morons think they’re fixing a plot hole or something?
>General Kenobi. I was kidnapped as a child because of you, to lure you into a trap by Jedi-hunting inquisitors, and we had zany adventures together, but I've already forgotten about that, though it was barely 10 years ago, let's never mention it again.
>The threat against the life of your good friend's daughter was barely enough to bring you out of hiding then, but I trust you're not above delivering these space station plans to rebels.
>Even though you're a bumbling moron who falls for every trap, can't tell friend apart from foe, and get your ass kicked all the time, and are now also even older and senile. I have simply no one else to ask because my royal family never had any friends.
>and you were a good friend
Of course not. It embodies the worst elements of Disney Star Wars in that it’s not only poorly made, but it’s totally incongruous with the OT and seeks to retcon elements of it for the purpose of telling its poorly conceived fan fiction story,
it’s a really exciting show
>The only kind of cool new characters
>Calculon gets destroyed protecting Tala and proves that he isn't a mindless machine
>She immediately blows herself up anyway
Compelling
Hard to say. For me it is one of best SW. With ESB, Mandalorian s01 and ROTS. But some people see it as trash.
Last 2 episodes are great. Second episode is honestly weak. I think some people just hate stuff because they think they are better than others. So hating what others like is sign of their superiority. I don't watch Marvel movies after Captain America 3. But i will not spend my hours shitting on them. I just don't care about them. I don't care about The Boys or Sopranos. These are pretty good show most likely.
So question is. Do you like Star Wars or do you like shitting on Star Wars?
>I am a lifelong starwars fan
You should get a life.
It depends if you're part of Disney's target demographic.
Disney has ideological differences that are simply incompatible with the Star Wars universe. Everything they do will fail.
Lucas is going to make bank buying it back from them at 2 billion.
Its not. Its very cheap looking, badly directed and poorly acted show even by CW standarts, and im not exaggerating.
Trying to find anything valuable for SW here is an impossible task.
I only watched the final duel and the music was the most generic THIS IS LE EPIC shit possible. I still don't get the sense in having Vader totally beaten. His helmet damaged is one thing but humiliated like that was nonsensical in my view. Should have had some extraneous bullshit separate them. Obi-Wan puts up a really good fight but he's still very much on the defensive causes Vader's huge, strong, filled with rage, and stronger than Anakin at Mustafar ever was
>Is this actually worth my time?
No it's Star Wars. Therefore it's shit.
>I am a lifelong Star Wars fan
Even a moron like you can make something of its life. Don't give up.
Imagine calling yourself "a lifelong Star Wars fan" in 2022 and not cringing with shame.
Its made by Disney. Therefore it is not worth yours or anyone’s time. Its literal trash.
Still better than the prequels
A New Hope premiered 45 fricking years ago. Imagine what the landscape of cinema would be like if during the 70s, 80s, 90s all we got were endless rehashes of 45 year old sagas
It's only 6 episodes at about ~4 hours total length, you could get through it in a day or two.
Not really taking a big gamble here.
You just have to take an hour break after every episode to simmer down and process your frustration, ask yourself "what the frick were they thinking?" and assure yourself it's not really canon just fancy fanfiction, don't take it personally, just laugh at how silly it is, before you're ready to go again
It's still funny how the ideal Obi-Wan vs Maul scenario on Tattooine got wasted on a homosexual CGI Filoni cartoon. Disney "canon", despite their pretentions of cleaning stuff up, is now messy like the EU, and this was one of the few things that would have been a warranted decanonisation.
Anyone who's fandom didnt die when fricking TFA released deserve what they get. You directly supported this financially and your taste is shit. Get fricked, homosexual.
TFA was a breath of fresh air and hope after the prequels though
TFA signalled the death of creativity in SW. The prequels were great, homosexual.
I always liken prequels to Lynch's Dune. I'm not necessarily a through and through unironic enjoyer of either but respect those movies. It's so obvious soul and creativity and talent on part of the filmmakers is there, even if the end result has misses as well as hits and awkwardness. Prequels also never lost sight of the Rule of Cool that is essential to Star Wars being a massive money maker.
Nope. Just try to stomach the first episode. Green screen is everywhere and looks terrible and the bad guys costumes look like cheap Chuckie Cheese knock offs.
scenes with only Obi-wan were better than Boba, scenes with Leia involved were actually worse , yes worse than fricking Boba Fett
overall its as shitty as Boba and one of the worst TV shows I've ever watched
