    Quite true. Kenobi now bears quite a bit of responsibility for all the horrific acts that follow in Episodes 4-6

    I had forgotten about that part. Yeah, the R2D2 Leia message to Kenobi seems a bit odd now

    You nailed it! That was basically a "Hey, what's up?" moment. :)

    I'll take those as good counterpoint arguments. Well explained.

    Walter, I agree with you on a lot of points here. Any negativity I have expressed has nothing to do with not wanting the series to be made. I was excited about the series when it was announced. As you stated, since this is a prequel, we already know the fate of the major characters and thus...

    I wasn't crazy about Hayden Christensen being in this. His age difference really distracted me and there was little attempt to de-age him. I think that McGregor looks far less aged for some reason. Also, the "escapes" are far too easy. I think this is part of the dumbing down process from...

    The series has been very uneven but the last two episodes have been quite good.

    Really enjoyed this week's episode. However, I am also really looking forward to seeing Obi-Wan drop off Leia at the nearest Jedi Child Care center as soon as possible.

    I just thought they used footage from Episode III of Anakin. However, good to know he will be put to better use in this series.

    Wow. Had no idea Christensen was even in this. I don't see the point unless he's not behind a mask. That's a salary that could have gone to craft services for an extra nice meal for the crew

    Thought the show made a significant comeback after last week. Really enjoyed it. However, a few nitpicks probably amount to nothing in the scheme of this being entertainment... ...but as I said, this is just entertainment

    Kelly Marie Tran However, I guess I was naive to think that the pushback on her was just being a horrible character, Rose (second-worst to Jar Jar Binks). Wasn't her fault. The role was just written poorly.

    Whaaaat?! This is horrible. Did John Boyega get this much racist pushback when his role was announced for

    First episode very good. Second not so much. I think what bothers me is that sometimes the production feels like an actual Star Wars movie and that's great -- and then suddenly we get these cheapened TV production scenes with budget Halloween alien costumes. It just reminds you that this...

    I take it that Darth Vader will be appearing in this series? I also take it that James Earl Jones was signed on to voice him? I would hate to think that perhaps they went cheap and Gilbert Gottfried voiced the character before his death. :)

    Absolutely. That is the most memorable theme in the entire saga and it is beautiful! I am amazed at the body of work John Williams has amassed. He has created the most memorable movie themes of all time. He will go down in movie history as the greatest composer in film, I think.

    I am with you, Sam. I don't think there was a specific theme written for him
