Obi Wan Kenobi General News & Discussion Thread (TAG SPOILERS)

I bet Qui-Gon shows up in that cave.

 

[The Caped Knight]

Welcome back Master Kenobi

I love this quote;

"Thank you, George, for casting Joel Edgerton as Uncle Owen," laughs director Deborah Chow. "That's all I can say."

 

[TheWiseGuy487]

So, I guess this is pretty much “Star Wars 3.5” in all but name, but with the focus on Obi-Wan. I’m down with that.

This is pretty hallowed ground storytelling-wise. I mean, it’s Obi-Wan frickin Kenobi, one of the OG Star Wars characters. It’s the first time in 17 years we’ve last visited this character, whose status and mindset during this period provides so much potential fodder for interesting character exploration. We once more get to see Hayden as Anakin/Darth Vader, a role for which he was much maligned for his wooden acting/delivery and terrible dialogue, this time under the direction of Deborah Chow, one of the best new talents on Star Wars, and better writing.

The fact that the people working on this know they can’t screw this up, and have only one shot to get it right, makes me think this is going to be something truly special.

These inquisitors don't stand a chance, it will be interesting to see what they do.

 

[Albright]

sorry to bring it on, but if they show trailers, we won‘t see them - its only audio (watching it right now).
Maybe after the meeting

 

[Arachnerd]

Regardless it will 100% come out this month.

I love this quote;

I do like that quote, but I was even happier with the quote about

him not being stuck on Tatooine and 'a new planet'.

 

[DarkKnight88]

Regardless it will 100% come out this month.

Rumor I’m hearing is it’ll drop tomorrow.

We’ll see.

[Gothamsknight]

Im speechless

 

[The Caped Knight]

I'm surprised no tease of Vader in the trailer

 

[Ninjablade]

Looking interesting. They're really playing things close to the best with this one.

 

[Erzengel]

Me: Yeah, I just don't get too excited about things anymore.
[Duel of the Fates plays]
Me: [hair stands up]

 

[antsman41]

PURE goosebumps on that last Obi shot.

Ewan is BLESSED, baby.

 

[Arachnerd]

…if Russia won‘t drop the bomb

What a delightful optimist you are.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, Duel Of The Fates.

 

[antsman41]

[breathing] showed up at the end.

 

[Gothamsknight]

Yeah, I had chills going up my spine. As much as I adore the Mandalorian show and all that, nothing has gotten me THIS excited regarding the Star Wars shows. I'm ready!!!!

 

[Weather Witch]

Looks really solid. Can't wait!

 

[Broseph44]

oh my lord

[antsman41]

Copter Lightsaber looks dope in live-action... the head off the Grand Inquisitor looks of though; more basketball / less vase.

And, I thought Cad Bane looked glorious.

 

[Closerframe]

Not gonna lie, that trailer didn’t get me excited like those for The Mandalorian or even some of the spin-off Star Wars movies. Could of had something to do with the terrible Grand Inquisitor design.

 

[Gothamsknight]

I can't stop watching the trailer
