Just when you think Star Wars can’t get any more stupid along comes the Obi-Wan Kenobi show to prove us all wrong. Disney and Lucasfilm have hired Joby Harold to write the continuing adventures of one of Star Wars most loved characters. I wouldn’t hire Joby to write a shopping list. This show is beyond dumb and completely destroys the Original Trilogy. Good times! Join me in turning this sad story into something fun!

I hope everyone is well on the planet of crazy. Thanks for all the comments and views. I really appreciate it. But this show! It’s hard to imagine a plot more stupid then the one we are getting in the Obi-Wan Kenobi show. And the more you watch it the worse it gets. But do you agree? And of course, if you enjoyed the video (how could you not) hit the “Like”. Subscribing and sharing the video is always a big help. And of course the bell. Cheers Everyone!

For your question about how does Reva know Obi WAN’s relationship with Bale Organa, I found the answer. In a deleted scene from the show, we see Reva’s room in the Inquisitorium. In it, we can see a blue-ray copy of Revenge of the Sith on a shelf. Glad I could help

Apparently the original script was pretty good. Reva was a side character meant to haunt Obi wan because of his past failure to stop the emperors plans who would redeem herself but still die. The focus was on Obi Wan. But I assume that someone higher up (KK) wanted this female BIPOC to have a bigger role and even a spin off. So she couldn’t die and had to be more likable. But of course they left her as the villain so they were screwed.

I admire your positivity, because I lost respect for actors decades ago. The show is irrefutably garbage. The actors read the used toilet paper that was the script, signed the deal, and then that cowardly scumbag Ewam McGarbage actively participated on twitter calling the fans of his own show toxic, bigoted, and all this other anti LGBT+-APX buzzwords. I get where you are coming from, but imagine someone came to you and said they’ll give you a million to play Captain Hodor from The Last Jedi. Would you do it? Very likely, but you would understand everyone HATES that character and you would know you chose the money over principle. That said. I agree with you except the actors helped make this garbage. If Ewam said no, we wouldn’t have yet another dog shit SW plot. At this point, Star Wars has 2.5 good movies (sorry, I always hated the Ewoks), 8 extra garbage movies, and 3 garbage shows. We have a 2.5/16 ratio of good to terrible. So about 84% of Star Wars has been bad. I didn’t even count the video games like the pay-to-play scams from EA’s Battlefront. Star Wars is long dead, but at least the hate is keeping us together around the campfire in union. Pass the blue alien tiddy milk please 🥛 😃

All of the details mentioned are absolutely spot on. However, the single most stupid thing is Obi Wan completely abandoning Luke.

I just don't get it.

How to spot a narcissist writer: Character destroys things I don't care about, but character spares something I do care about = redeemed character. The true redemption arc would be a willing submission to justice, some expression of remorse, and then change demonstrated over time. The power of her arc would have been expecting justice but receiving mercy, then living differently. Narcissists can't ever admit fault, though, so we have the "I can't hurt someone who I empathize with, so I'm a good person" plot instead.

You just called George Lucas a narcissist writer. Anakin Skywalker or Darth Vader murdered many people we didn't care about but spared one that we did care about and is considered redeemed. Vader never submitted to justice (don't say his death counts, he was granted immortality), expressed remorse past apologizing nearly killing his son despite murdering thousands in the past 25 years, or demonstrated change over time. He simply decided to save his son said sorry bruh and died yet that is seen as the greatest redemption arc of all time. and it is. you don't understand the intricacies of it however you just remember liking it as a kid. I'm not saying Obi-wan is perfect, but you seem to not be able to look past a minor flaw unless you had a pre-determined outlook on the person or plot.

Cuz there's no fucking way she finds out about Luke and he doesn't! I mean, that literally should have been his only thought "Now, why the fuck is my old master on MY old home planet?!" Like, did he really never think "Okay, Padme's dead, maybe what I was feeling wasn't her BEING alive but her GIVING life?"?! No.. Just no. And of course instead of making any of the other characters cool or interesting or likeable at all, they have all of these PoC and all differently oriented peoples just to mark a check on the makeup pallet they use on their asses.

Among everything mentioned here, a problem I had was there were ZERO stakes in this entire show. Any characters I cared about already had their stories continued or ended in the original trilogy. I couldn’t have cared less about Reva or any new character introduced in this show as the only way they could or would be important is by any spin off shows. I can’t even remember most of the characters names. The whole plot of this show was so poorly made. I would have taken an Obi-Wan trauma series were he’s struggling to cope with his past as he completes the training Yoda gave him at the end of Ep. 3. We could have seen Duchess Satine, younger Ashoka, younger Anakin, and clone wars stuff in flash backs. Which imo would have been amazing. Obi-Wan is so much more of a character than just teaching Anakin and Luke. And the Clone Wars did such a good job of showing that. Kenobi did not. His character was so one note and boring the entire time. I took more enjoyment in counting the amount of times he could have said ‘Hello there’ or some memey shit.

Yeah, I felt the same way that you did. The saddest part about Obi-Wan Kenobi is that even if its writing was any better and it did not make Kenobi a useless lump who had to be directed by a child Princess Leia, there would still be nothing at stake for any of the characters we already know from the prequel trilogy or the original trilogy. That sadly may have been why the Obi-Wan Kenobi writers or directors did not try; they never denied that making an interquel series about Obi-Wan Kenobi and the planet of Tatooine being chased and pursued by a new character who was a youngling Anakin failed to kill in the past, was a meaningless pursuit where putting any effort into the writing, directing, cinematography or even the budget would be totally pointless no matter what. Putting real thought or effort into this pointless production to make Obi-Wan Kenobi as useful as he used to be would have at least won this mini-series the nostalgia points it was aiming to get from people who wanted to see a new story about Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader one last time. Your idea of having an intentionally lower-stakes storyline in between the two trilogies where Obi-Wan completes his training with Yoda, and struggles to cope with his past with flashbacks of the Clone Wars sounds way better in my opinion.

The thing about Leia is, they clearly didn't hide the fact that she was adopted (which makes sense since the mother was never pregnant), but instead relied on the fact that no-one would ever know who her real parents are.

I really wish they hadn't used Vader meeting Obi-wan in this series. There's virtually no indication in the OT that they met since Mustafar. Vader's line “I was but a learner, now I am the master” leads perfectly from their last battle, why would we need them to fight again after this? Even if they kept Vader in this show, they could've focused more on his anger, his transformation from Anakin into Vader, his leading the Empire and some stuff about him trying to find Obi-wan using the force. They well and truly fucked it here. The last burning ember of hope I had for starwars is now gone.

It's true that their last fight, before ANH, should've been in ROTS; however, they could've had Vader in the show by having him trying to hunt down Obi-Wan. In the last episode, they could've had Vader tracking Obi-Wan to some planet, and sensing his presence, but just missing him as Obi-Wan narrowly escapes before Vader can find him. That could've connected to the line in ANH when Vader says, "I sense something, a presence I haven't felt since..." because there is no fight or even a meeting of the two in that line of dialogue. It's simply Vader feeling Obi-Wan's presence at some point in time and at some location.

If they wanted a Vader vs Obi-Wan confrontation they could have used the same training that Yoda did to learn to become a Force Ghost where he had to face his inner darkness. So instead of real Vader it would have been a Dark Side Cave sequence where he faced a Vision of Vader. Could have even had it where when Obi-Wan wins Vader is revealed to be an empty suit, like his victory over Vader would result in the death of Anakin, follow up with a vision of the future where he sees a grown up Luke facing off against Vader before Palpatine on the second Death Star in ROTJ. Which would reinforce that he will need to train Luke in the future and it is not his job to defeat Vader.

The Book of Boba Fett was bad but Obi-Wan Kenobi was even worse. Think about it; Boba Fett was a somewhat one-dimensional (unless you count EU/Legends) character while Obi-wan was someone we saw grow across several films and a 7 season cartoon series. If I were to compare the damage that was done to the characters by Disney's mishandling to bicycle accidents I'd say TBoBF is the equivalent of falling off your bike and skinning your elbows/knees while Obi-Wan Kenobi is getting rammed by a Semi-truck.

It feels like with each dis+ series the folks at Lucasfilm try there best to optimize the production further and further. And by 'optimize' I mean they reduce the production time as quickly as possible so they can move onto the next dis+ show they need to rush out to meet quotas. There's no passion in the writing of these shows, the plot just feels like a basic outline with a few undeveloped ideas that was only put to screen out of obligation. If I didn't know any better I'd think the script was literally spewed out of an AI that they just fed a bunch of previous star wars material into. Its got all the basic Disney tropes like they just parameters, a lot of scenes feel like they were poorly ripped off from previous Star Wars material, and the writing has a comical lack of thought put into it that it. Yah either an AI or a person with all the imagination of a AI scribbled out this script in one draft and the team put it to screen with all the enthusiasm of an eighth grade book report, content in the knowledge that the actually quality of the material is comically irrelevant as long as Dis+ metrics are good and the normies on twitter clap... what a waste...

Detail the rules of your universe and Obey the established rules of the universe the story takes place in. 8. Set up & then pay off. 9. Subversion, make the subversion as logical and rewarding, if not more, than what you are subverting from. 10.

Just watch the Red Letter Media episode on it - after getting mentally raped by how bad Picard was, they more or less were just relived to watch Obi Wan as "something stupid but better than Picard". It's the least common denominator coupled with Stockholm Syndrome, I've had friends who unironically say well Rise of Skywalker was alright but Last Jedi was terrible, but then think Obi Wan was "decent" as well as Boba Fett - the longer man lives breathing, eating, and sleeping in shit, he has no concept of how better and different things could be in the ocean or mountains.

@@kudjo24Red Letter Media has no business complaining about Disney Star Wars; they are the ones who paved the way through with all their garbage prequel "reviews" which paved the way for George Lucas to sell his company to Disney. As far as I'm concerned Disney Star Wars is their reward due to all those who gave George such garbage from 2009 to 2012 because of the propaganda in those garbage "reviews".

I kinda knew what this series is going to be after the scene where Leia gets kidnapped on Alderan. The farce that is the chase of three people trying to catch a little girl. And i assume they had to be smart enough to sneak into the royal woods (or whatever the backyard of the palace is called). I wanted to put my head through the table after that :-D
@Lobsterwithinternet
@Lobsterwithinternet Год назад
And also sneak past the palace’s security, which I doubt a few random thugs could do. Not to mention they would be hesitant to go and kidnap the daughter of one of the most powerful people in the empire. Don't you think they would turn tail rather than do something that would get them put on the Empire’s Most Wanted list?

Question: if you’re Vader and you know that Organa is in contact with Kenobi, wouldn’t the logical thing to do next is to pay Organa a little visit? If you answered yes then congratulations, you just destroyed the entire plot line of the OT. Because if Vader ever did that then he would find out Kenobi is hiding out on Tatooine and probably find out about Luke.

Disney have said since the beginning that they will make content for the old star wars fan (F**k the prequels kinda thing). Mission accomplished if you ask me. The prequels were lambasted for being too complex, political, having long drawn out character development, too boring between the stupid childish action and new CGI tech. Disney listened and now don't bother with explanations, continuity or any development whatsoever. Just rehash old places, characters and stories and make a meme-able Kobra Kai like nostalgia trip without depth. Just 'Good' vs 'Evil' with no in between and 'Good' always wins no matter what. Be careful what you wish for is the lesson here...I love the originals and love the prequels more because they developed from what I had already fallen for. My love stopped after Force Awakens. I enjoy these videos more than I enjoy the new stuff. so thank you, keep it up

The whole time during the reva parkour scene I was just thinking, “what the hell is the point of this, I know she’s not even gonna show up. It just looks goofy who the hell thought that was a good looking scene.” Not to mention the mindless screaming black character trope, given the Finn treatment I see. She was even used as a self sacrifice character for ‘character development’. It’s like they’ve given up on writing unique characters and just started using copy and paste.
