She should only know him as Vader. I frankly wish they had more of a stare down. '60's western style. No words and no engagement at all. Just let the eyes, body, and music tell the story for a minute of just tense build before Ben escapes since he's been found. He knows he'll lose. And leave it at that. That totally would have worked if they had faith in the fans. @Jaycan this thread title be changed to include "spoilers" since this is on demand and I handn't seen the episode, not realizing what happened till minutes ago. Would prefer not to know ahead of time that this is a spoiler thread. Seconded, this appears to be the only active thread about the show and I assumed the general rules of freely being able to talk about episodes that dropped applied here. Wouldn’t want others to have the opposite idea though so some clarity would be good Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same issue with the Jurassic World movies. Something corporate is possesing them, you can see it in the tiny things, and feels no longer relevant.

I haven't watched a single Disney Star Wars product since Rise of Skywalker (which I only watched to laugh at, but found I couldn't even finish it.) I truly don't understand how humans can make such insulting media and no one stops them. I love Ewan McGregor, but even he looks bored to death playing Obi Wan again. I watched the 3 episodes and laughed, got angry, was baffled, and just about every other emotion. It's a catastrophe. The music makes me want to be sick. But the writing (if you can call it that) it just embarrassing. I could write a 300 page essay of the problems I've seen. Even simple things like establishing shots of towns are just awful.

Absolutely spot on 100% And how many shots of ships landing can you have? The writing really is particularly awful, feels like one of those Kevin J. Anderson, post ROTJ novels we used to get before the prequels were made. One thing I particularly dislike is the urge to, somehow, fill in every gap between this and ANH, while at the same time, actually contradict it. It's also particularly annoying when you see two characters that have obviously run into each other every now and then in the last few years, like Kenobi and Owen, have a conversation like it's the first time they've met since Anakin turned, just for for the sake of the audience's understanding. It's lazy, lazy, screenwriting. I really hope that the toy Obi-Wan wants to give to Luke is not the very same toy ship we see Luke swooshing around in ANH, but of course, it most certainly will be. This show reminds of something that used to happen when I played football when I was kid, and me and my teammates never had enough shampoo to shower, because a bunch of us always kept forgetting to bring it. So we just took a nearly empty bottle of shampoo and refill up to half with water, in order to dilute and stretch whatever little shampoo was left.

Brónach 1,302 Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 i didn't understand the wipes criticism to be honest I think I was off Star Wars before The Force Awakens, the became hyped, then got off Star Wars, then went to see The Force Awakens and went home absolutely bored, and I thought "oh, it's all going to be like this". (because it really goes downhill quickly after the first act, which probably also means the first act is all wrong). Then a year later I saw Rogue One and I actually had fun, but I thought it could be better. Then I essentially forgot about Star Wars and treated it like a doomed thing, merely thinking that there was pretty photography in the trailers (it was the same in the movie). I was surprised seeing the movie, as it tried to be more fun fun than The Force Awakens, but ultimately it depends on it and it also had other problems (it's like when you have a great idea for a sword duel and a great set but most of the choreography sucks, for instance). And at that point I saw so many threads going into the next movie that I thought it was going to suck, since that movies has to tie itself, has to tie three movies, and has to tie nine movies, so the writing was on the wall. Ultimately the problem here is the copyright laws, corporations being able to own an IP, and Disney buying and owning things (Disney makes deadlines, not movies). 3 hours ago, Holko said: Exactly right.

leeallen01 2,136 Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 I cannot believe that Obi Wan Kenobi; the greatest Jedi Knight in the Galaxy, the one who defeated Darth Maul in combat and Anakin Skywalker at the height of his powers, the one who fought for good and peace for decades, who led hundreds of complex missions for the Republic and the Jedi...actually ACCIDENTALLY whoopsie daisy silly me called Leia by her real name IN FRONT of some Stormtroopers, contradicting his own story and risking her life. Thanks Disney. I am so sorry Lucas for ever thinking your dialogue was cheesy or clunky in the prequels, it was damn shakespeare compared to this show. Kenobi: "What have you become?" Vader: "I am what you made me." Also Vader: "You should have killed me when you had the chance." Also Vader: "Now you will suffer, Obi Wan." Also Vader: "Your pain has just begun." It actually hurts. Satellite dish head: "you go too far Reeva." Reeva: "you don't go far enough." You can literally predict every cliche awful line.

Romão 2,274 Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 I don't particularly care about canon or continuity and I think it often restrains and contracts the storytelling, but when you make a show, relying on the goodwill and love for characters created and developed in far superior works of fiction, at least try not to demean these works nor do things that contradict their spirit and change their narrative flow. The only possible way to interpret the spirit of the duel between Vader and Obi-Wan in A New Hope is that these two were former master and pupil and this was their first time meeting after having a major falling out. That's the whole spirit of the scene and of its buildup. To deny this is demeaning to the original film. And Disney so-called "storytellers" act more like lawyers looking for loopholes in the dialogue exchange between Vader and Obi-Wan to somehow justify them meeting again between episodes III and IV. It's lazy, it's trashy and its demeaning to the storytelling and narrative of the original film.

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 It's conversations like these that make me glad that I keep Star Wars at arms-length. Doctor Who is more built for this kind of thing. Loose canon, bizarre continuity, wild variations in quality? That's my bread and butter. If it's a rip-roaring adventure then it's Doctor Who. If it's a sluggishly-paced piece of hot garbage, you'd better believe it's also Doctor Who. It's all gloriously inconsistent, and best of all, if you really don't like something then you can just pretend it never happened. Chances are the next writer will do the same!
