Obi-Wan Kenobi Season 1 Episode 3 'Part III' | DISNEY PLUS | First Time Watching 

I've always made the interpretation that Vader didn't want the weak, old, and uninspired Ben. He wanted revenge against the Jedi Master that beat him in their last duel. So he toys with Obi-Wan hoping that he'll get to see the master that dismantled him on Mustafar. In other words, Vader's arrogance keeps him from killing Obi-Wan.

"I am what you made me" Easily my favorite quote from Darth Vader

Hayden’s Vader is cold asf. I’m glad he’s in the suit 95% of the time and they didn’t bring him back for a couple of face shots.

11:12 McGregor said he felt like a 6 year old again, as terrified of Vader as he was as a kid. He said he thought, 😱 "Oh @#$&...that's DARTH VADER."

As someone who loves horror movies, I love the direction they took with Vader in this episode

Vader was afraid of fire after Mustafa episode. And he wanted Obi-Wan to suffer, not kill him swiftly

Obi Wan didn’t use his force powers for a long time and is having trouble tapping back into them.

It is confirmed in the Star Wars Canon comic Darth Vader when he had his castle built on Mustafar and then in the Vader Immortal vr game. Vader/Anakin tried to revive Padme from the end of episode 3 Revenge of the Sith, but he couldn't see it because Luke and Leya were already born. Because he thought they died in her womb. So when he tried to revive her, he couldn't see them because they were already born. And then when he found out that he had a son, he wanted to be sure Darth Vader 2020 comic period between Star Wars episode 5 and 6. And some time after that, this cinematic Fallen Angel takes place.

2:20 if you're a force user you can feel the force even if you don't use it. But in Obi-Wan's case the trauma faded/severed his connection a bit. Hence why it wasn't so easy to catch Leia, he wasn't sure he would be able to do it too.

Anakin/darthvader loves to play with his food. That’s why he didn’t do anything at the end. But it’s weird cause he could of easily push the fire out of the way.

Just remember leia is Luke's twin. She has the same level of metacloriens in her as he does. They are twins. She has the same force potential. She can sense things. She just doesn't know it yet.

The reasons as to why DV didn't "finish" OWK are left vague and for us to think about 😉 .... As always love watching your facial reactions to every scene Stef ❤🔥

Anakin's descent into darkness was well portrayed. Because some Jedi never completely loved him, didn't respect him, didn't trust him, didn't take him seriously and even despised him. As a child before Obi-Wan started teaching him, he was hated and psychologically bullied by other children "Anakin is a slave to his feelings" and that was only because of envy because he was much more gifted and skilled than them. . . .And many other things and sufferings he and his padawan, Ashoka Tano, the Jedi like to cause. Yoda during the Clone Wars, he met the spirit of Darth Bane in Sitt's tomb, which is created by the rule of two. And later in his visions he saw Anakin becoming Darth Vader and didn't do anything about it because I thought it wasn't worth it. Anakin was a slave all his life - Tatuine, Jedi, Love, Dark Side. He became a father figure to Qui-gon Jinn, during his stay in the temple he was psychologically bullied and called by others "Anakin slaves to his own feelings", he lost his mother, the Jedi never married him all the time and without proper evidence he accused Ashoka and caused her to leave and finally he was afraid of losing Padmé. The only and worst support given the events was Palpatine who was a fatherly substitute for Anakin from the beginning. When he used Mace Windu's hand and after killing the Jedi he was already in the dark as the dark side itself showed him to the planet Mortis The One Son. On Mustafar, Padme almost got him from the dark side, but Obi-Wan discovered him and screwed it up. Anakin "Vader" built his castle on Mustafar and thanks to the two sbosobs he tried to revive Padmé but he could not see it due to the fact that Luke and Leya were already born, they were the only ones preventing it with their existence. Too bad he didn't find "Word between Wolrds" on the planet Lothal. He would create an alternate Reality or go through all of history. ;) . . . You have to find out about the lost 20 Jedi like Count Dooku, about the fates of Jedi with the ability to see the future, young apprentices who were not taken by any Jedi masters to learn, who showed little talent for the force and were not shown to the temple which in some cases was quite drastic, . .. Blinded by ego, aronance, pride, absolute help to people and not following the path of forces. Honor to the exceptions and one of the true Jedi was Master Fey. The Jedi and the Fallen Jedi (Sith) have betrayed the memory and message of their common ancestors of the Je'daii Order by their actions and the endless battles of their Civil War. 😊 May the force be with you. And may you lead the force. 🖐️

2:22: Yes, and technically everyone can use it now. Midi-chlorians are the foundation of life in the galaxy and connect them to the force. Even if you don't have a high M-count, you can still use the force with a lot of discipline.

I can't help but feel like this show was a missed opportunity... However, it was extremely cool to see hayden & ewan again 😊

2:40 everyone has the force...Funny because that was actually mentioned in the last episode of Ahsoka. Everyone has the force but not everyone is able to use it. Talent and training play a big factor in that. And yes as a force user you can always feel the force. A non force sensitive character like Han Solo can't feel it or doesn't even believe in it, which is said in Episode 4 (A new hope)

You can only sense the force if you are force sensitive. Ie. you can use the force. You should have included it, but obi wan explains to Leila in this episode what the force feels like.

6:18 “It’s a long way!” 6:50 “This is us!!” 😂😂😂

Am I the only one getting A New Hope Leia vibes from Stef's outfit, hair & headphones?

Once he's no longer in control, Vader's PTSD kicked in over the fire. You can see him shy away from it.

Vader wasn’t pressed to get to Obi Wan which is why he didn’t make any extra effort to get back to him. Whatever actions Vader takes, it’s always his decision to pursue or not too. Jedi’s can sense other force users, but some master level Jedi’s such as Obi Wan and Yoda learned to suppress their presence within the force. Obi Wan did so by not using the force for 10 years. Yoda did so by going to Dagobah which was a planet with a strong dark side presence. He actually hid himself within the dark side. This is why he was never found by Vader or any Inquisitors. Hope that helps.

This episode gave me the chills with the kenobi bs vader scene which I’ve waited for a while. I watched the scene so many times after that because I’m just like wow. Keep up the cool vids though I always enjoy seeing you watch Star Wars stuff :)

To answer your question. I think it tepends on how strong you are with the force. If you are Anakin level you can probably pull some small tricks and feel the force even if you are not aware, like he showed by piloting the pods, and sensing things. But if you are a weakling in the force like Sabine, then you cant really use it or even sense it unless you train for years.

reasoning for why vader didn't go past the fire or use the force to put it out is because 2 reasons.. 1: Vader could've been letting him go so Ben could lead him to other jedi survivors. and 2: (the more possible reason) Vader wants Ben to suffer like Anakin did after their duel on Mustafar and so Ben can heal and come back stronger so Vader beats his old master at his strongest so its more of a victory. Killing Ben right then and there would've been too easy for Vader.

The best part is it's Haden Christensen (not sure how his last names spelled lol) the same actor that plays anikin in episode 2 and 3 in the Darth Vader suit... James earl Jones still doing the voice tho

Hi Sref!🙂You have to know someone is alive to be able to connect to them with the force. Now that Obi-Wan is aware of Vader their connection will grow stronger. It has come up, that couldn't Darth Vader have put out the fire. Great reactions to episode three, Stef!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Vader is truly one the most terrifying villains in fiction.

I loved when you said "es un topo" heheh

Obi Wan shut himself off from the force, which is why Vadar couldn't sense him. It's why you don't see him use the force much these past few episodes.

According to the Just released Ahsoka series and creator George Lucas. Everyone has the force within them in their cells. Only a handful can manipulate it to their will. Also, it takes years and years and years…did i say years to train to become in tune with the force. A being who’s great with a blaster or has great instincts etc is a form of the force within a person even if they don’t know what the force is.

You'll definitely get emotional on the last episode Stef

The symbol on the back of the truck is the Imperial insignia.

Yes Stef, remember, "the Force will be with you, always". Haha Great reaction as ever.

Vader was like a cat playing with a mouse.

Like others said, Vader’s own arrogance and desire to make Obi-Wan suffer is what makes him drag it out and ends up letting him get away. He wants to beat him outright and prove he’s better.

Vader didn't know Kenobi had allies. Kenobi and Jedi sympathizers or possibly more Jedi are a bigger catch than just Kenobi alone.

Can you cry? Well yes, you can also scream, run, flail, whimper, give up, lie down. Any of those are valid when faced with DARTH VADER.

Vader's focus is to get revenge on Obi-Wan. Everyone thinks he wants to kill him, but Vader wants him to suffer as much as possible before killing him, the way he feels Obi-Wan made him suffer. It's kind of like the Joker/Batman conversation at the end of TDK when Joker tells Batman, and I'm paraphrasing here, "you won't kill me out of some misplaced sense of principle, and I won't kill you because you're just too much fun". The relationship isn't an exact parallel, but the basic sense is there. TBH, there's a lot of people who misinterpret certain aspects and motivations in the this show, so just be aware of thar in the comments sections. The whole crux of this series is the emotional baggage and recovery of Obi-Wan and, to a lesser extent, Vader. It's seriously a study on PTSD. The last episode is a masterclass in that field. Not to mention it's among the best Star Wars we as fans have ever got. Keep up the reactions, Stef! Love them! I'm a big fan!

Vader in first script even in scenes was more brutal, but then someone do cut down. 😮😊😢

10:09 Yes” once a Jedi is affiliated and the channels of conscious & feeling are open the force will remain with them

Can ordinary people use the Force? This was just addressed in this week's Ahsoka episode. Ahsoka says the Force resides within every life form. When further asked, "If that's true, why doesn't everyone use it?" Ahsoka replies, "Talent is a factor. But training and discipline will ultimately define one's success. Not everyone has the discipline necessary to fully wield the Force (paraphrased)." During the prequel trilogy, George Lucas introduced another wrinkle - midi-clorian count. "Midi-clorians were microscopic, intelligent life forms that originated from the foundation of life in the center of the galaxy and ultimately resided within the cells of all living organisms, thereby forming a symbiotic relationship with their hosts. The Force spoke through the midi-chlorians, allowing certain beings to use the Force if they were sensitive enough to its powers. In order to gauge an individual's potential in the Force, blood tests were used to estimate the number of midi-chlorians within the subject's cells. Anakin Skywalker, the Chosen One, possessed the highest known count in galactic history-over twenty-thousand midi-chlorians-surpassing the potential of Grand Master Yoda and all Jedi." starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Midi-chlorian The higher one's midi-clorian count, the more force-sensitive that person was. However, that wasn't the only factor. Obi-wan had a relatively low midi-clorian count (relative to other Jedi,

Um... to answer your question Stef, I think it is that you have to use the Force to be able to use it. That's mentioned in either the Mandolarian or Ahsoka, by Ahsoka. Somewhere in those series. Which, I would HIGHLY recommend you watch as well, if you havent. Great stuff. ^___^

That was a Galactic Empire Emblem.

I didn't like the way they did the duel between Vader and Obi-wan. In Movie 4, A New Hope, Vader says "When last we met, i was the trainee and you were the Master. Now i'm the Master" Obiwan says "Only a Master of evil, Darth". Not what we saw here. Vader was definitely the master of his abilities.

I found the scene where Vader (Anakin) goes nuts a bit weird, killing villagers randomly... in the original trilogy he mainly only killed people that got in his way and those that had failed him. He did kill younglings in the temple, but this scene was just a little OTT for me.

Yes, you have to be able to use the force to feel it. If you can't use the force, you wouldn't feel anything at all.

stef , Vader was afraid of the fire, he didn't want to get burned again , like in the movie, Frankenstein

Yeah, I agree with you. Why didnt Vader do anything as Obi-Wan was being saved? That scene through me off too.

you can cut yourself off from the force as the lore goes, and access it...but you send a ripple effect..that other force users can sense. Also people are reporting force welders and hunting them down. reference to the Halocaust

Vader let Obi-Wan escape because, as he said, the years had made him (Obi-Wan) weak. If Vader had killed him right then and there, it wouldn't have been worth it for his revenge. In other words, it would've been, to quote him, "All too easy." So he toyed with Kenobi and made him suffer as he suffered when he was left for dead on Mustafar. What I'm trying to say is that he didn't wanna kill a weak old man. "Disappointing.", he likely thought.

He had disconnected himself from the force, takes time to regain his strength

Vader wanted him to suffer, not kill him outright. He wanted to beat Obi-Wan at his best, not weak like this, to prove that he (Vader/Anakin) is better than his former master. Leia show her Force power in that she can tell when Ben is really telling the truth (empathic) and when he is hiding something. Also with her cousin, she can feel without other input. It's ok to be emotional, very powerful scene. If you use the Force then I think some can detect it. (Like Goku you can probably suppress your power to a point). Using the Force is still a skill, Ben at this time is still out of practice.

Vader wanted to get revenge, he wanted to make obi-wan suffer, his aim is to only kill him when he no longer feels joy from his suffering. At the moment his rage is tempered, if he were to get angry at obi-wan he would stop holding back. Also Obi-wan still hasn’t fully tapped back into the force, he’s not much better then a young king right now. Vader wants to defeat the obi-wan he knew, Obi-wan the Jedi master, not Obi-wan the ptsd old man. There would be no accomplishment in beating him right now, he wants to prove he’s the best.

nice to see your reaction stef and loving the star wars series with so far

Vader wanted to let Obi Wan Suffer, not kill him yet.

@Stef, you can turn yourself off from the force, all creatures and people are made up of the force.. so I mean, you can believe in it, and you can practice it. it doesn't mean you are a force wielder.. at this point Obi-wan wanted to hide or go into hiding and only look over Luke, as we are learning of Obi-wans thoughts behind hiding.. its a very scary time where the remaining Jedi are being hunted down..

I really cant wait for you to watch the finale of the series.

11:12 I love this reaction hhaha

James Earl Jones👨🏽 .The best casting choice for Lord Darth Vader of the Sith💀. Even though ,in his own words, "a black man from Mississippi with a stutter"!!.🗣️♥️

Beautiful stef loving your eyes and your reactions thanks a lot

Happy Labor Day! Hope you had a fantastic birthday on Aug 30th.

5:11 Un topo de nariz estrellada, sí

You kinda have to suspend your disbelief a bit to enjoy this series IMO. People have come up with their own theories as to why Vader just essentially let Obi-Wan run away, but the only one that really makes any sense is simply that they needed to in order to create a stronger link to where the movies pick up in Episode IV. The next episode is sort of similar in this regard, but the last two are awesome. Worth sticking with it.

I'm waiting for "that" one episode

The Force works differently with all Jedi depending on the Jedi s we'll just say the faith in the force

Yeah he could basically just have walked through the fire with that armor on. but hey, lets see past that, he was toying with obi .. so ye

We know better still has some type of feelings that are very hidden from the emperor but anyways Vader did kill the emperor to save his son right

Vader 🤘🤘

Vader could of literally walked through the fire because his suit can handle pretty much anything. They said that he didn’t do anything because Obi wan to weak for him and he wanted to face him at full strength but it’s just bad writing IMO

The force is in all living things have to learn how to use it im guessing

Star Wars TV shows, Rogue One, and the cartoons have a LOT of questionable, drawn out moments that make no sense, like letting Obi-Wan go. I love the nine films, but I usually leave it at that!

Vader is afraid of the fire. Won't cross throughThw

The answers to your questions: bad writing

yasssssssssssssssssssssss

Force ability does weaken. Ben has lost hope and faith, th3erefore, much weaker

:)

That’s the problem with Disney Star Wars, none of it makes sense!

Stef, I’m coming here after a long time to see if your videos have improved, and they have! No more looking to the left and asking that person questions, which really disengaged the audience. Now your talking to the person behind the camera and it is engaging your audience, even though you don’t look directly into the camera. All your questions and reactions are being shown and that’s what we want. But still, I can’t understand why you chose Kenobi to react to? Pretty much no one created reaction videos to this mess. It’s a stupid show, and your questions are relevant but there are no answers for them. This is called “plot holes.” And this show is riddled with them. It’s pretty much unanimous that Kenobi is probably the worst Disney show ever.

Uuuugghhhhh after all this time after watching this series for the first time and now watching it again I JUST CAN'T with Reva's character. 🤮

This series is 6 hours of my life that I will never get back. Kenobi isn't even the main character, in his own series. Garbage.

The whole fire wall was incredibly ridiculous weak writing and just another flaw in the series.

I cannot kill my twin. I cannot do it.
