    I agree. There's no way Obi Wan lets Vader live after defeating him a second time. Utter bullshit. There's no way Vader stops looking for Obi Wan just because the mini series is over and the Emperor tells him to. There's no way Vader would be surprised that Obi Wan shows up in Star Wars after...

    Disney+ Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022)

    I'm trying. The last time I watched the end of the fight, I thought I had an epiphany. "Oh. Okay. Ben realizes Anakin is dead, because Vader killed him. That means there's no way Ben can save Anakin because he's already dead, so Ben is off the hook and walks away." That reasoning worked for two...

    At the end of ep 5 I thought Reva was going to help Luke because she feared Vader had seen Ben's voice mail. I watched the series three times, and all three times it feels to me like at the end of ep 5 she is out to save Luke, but at the beginning of ep 6 she changed her mind, and has now...

    I have watched the series a third time and can forgive almost everything except Kenobi walking away from Vader when he has him on the ropes. Just because Kenobi has made peace with himself doesn't mean he leaves a monster alive who will now kill millions (and Kenobi knows it). Forgiving...

    I watched the entire series again. There's some great scenes in there. It was a worthwhile series to make. It adds more than it takes away. I get the three character arcs (in my job we call it range of change). Ben forgives himself for Anakin, Leia goes from childhood to the beginnings of...

    So Vader has a Star Destroyer at his disposal. What does he do? He could have dispatched a hundred TIE fighters to follow the other ship and blow it to smithereens. But he doesn't. He seems to think his Imperial Star Destroyer is one unit. Or, I should say, the writers seem to think in...

    The above video is a good example of what happens when writers break the principle of maximum capacity. Better writers live by it. Recently I took a job as a story analyst for a major studio. One of the first things they taught me was the rule of maximum capacity (and to reject writers who...

    I haven't read all the comments on episode five, but no one thinks they needed some serious de-aging software on Hayden Christensen? Yikes. As far as Reva, I believed her being "bad" more than I believed her being "good." She chopped off a woman's hand and was about to torture a kid. That said...

    His love for Leia is bringing him back. So beautiful. For years I have believed attachments being forbidden are what doomed the Jedi. Yes, Anakin's attachment to Padme proved tragic, but what if Jedi had been encouraged to love, and openly supported one another? By the time Palpatine executed...

    I have found an easy way for me, personally, to differentiate between what I consider good Star Wars and bad Star Wars. Good Star Wars shows make me want to watch more Star Wars. They make me want to go back and watch the original trilogy and maybe even rethink how bad I thought the prequel...

    I loved that she made him buy her the gloves... Real Star Wars in the house. Can already tell you this series will go in my Legit folder along with Clone Wars, Mandalorian, and Boba Fett.
