What Was Obi-Wan Doing on Tatooine After Revenge of the Sith? (Canon) - Star Wars Explained 

*Removes Hood* "Hello There..."

The better question is what DIDN'T I do!

I would rather have an Obi-wan movie than a Han Solo movie!

if there's an obi wan movie it NEEDS to be between episode 3 and 4. Preferably after delivering Luke. maybe a few years later.

He probably polished his lightsaber a lot

This plot is better than the shows. Yes, Obiwan is broken, but he doesn't just give up and pack meat all day, he's gathering intel on his surroundings and helping the people of tatooine. Idk why they didn't adapt this version of the story

Isn't Obi-Wan one of the best Jedi ever?

Cracking open cold ones with the tuskan raiders.

High ground a Star Wars story

We need a Ewan McGregor standalone movie or trilogy depicting these events!

What if Leia did happen to like nice men?

Listen I get it, having a show about Obiwan going insane on a sand planet wouldn't make for good TV but the path they chose with the show was straight up disrespectful. For all of his failures Obiwan never once gave up on his Jedi ways, that's what made him so great. Sure there were moments of weakness but he never let it define him. In the show he's turned his back on everything he'd ever know. Also he told Owen, Luke needed to be trained yet here he is burying his lightsaber in the middle of a desert and cutting himself off from the force.

In 2022 the movie Revenge of the Sith will be 17 years old. The same amount of time that passed between it and A New Hope...

Obi wan show should have been like this 😐

What would have happened if Luke and Leah were never born? Say if Padme miscarried or something?

For a guy who became a Star Wars fan very late I have missed out on a lot of the stories surrounding the movies. So these kind of videos are really awesome.

*Video Idea*: What if they didn't deleted the memory of C3PO in Episode 3?

can you do what if Manny joined the pirates in in ice age 4

A little sad "mastering his home brew recipes" isn't in there

Can you do a what if jar jar binks was the chosen one?

Why does Obi-Wan look like Abraham Lincoln in the comics?

Do a video explaining what would have happened if anakin was born in the republic

I say this with complete honesty, you're my favorite Star Wars Lore/Theory RU-vidr, and I've watch every one of your videos, many more than once. Love the voices you do, and your voice in general is one of the best for simple narration.

Great video. Thank you for all of these.

Here's a good theory. What if R2D2 and C3PO never made it to tatooine in a new hope like the escape pod got shot at?

"I've gotten pretty good a not dying, just ask Darth maul, count dooku, and general grievous." WHY IS OBI WAN SUCH A GOAT DAMNIT

Great work on these vids. Great benefit to all that wonder the deeper information that's out there.

Your voice is effing perfect for narrating stuff. Thanks so much for all your videos! It's one of the things I look forward to after work :)

Note : I have a question, if I may. " Thus, after Obi - WANs death, on the hanger of the Death Star 1, what happened to his lightsaber ? Did Darth Vader keep it, or destroy it ? Thank You

He was cracking a few cold ones with the sand bros

I love Obi Wan videos. Thanks for this one!

All your videos are so well done man, keep it up I gotta say I look forward to new 1s every time you post em

Deep and epic, what a great side story! He had a life full of humility tough chap.

Soon in Star Wars rebels, (Which is cannon) Darth maul will confront Obi-Wan Kenobi, seeking revenge.

The book Kenobi is a good read on what he was doing for the first 6 months or so. Great inner dialogue with himself when he was talking to Qui-Gon we see a side of Kenobi that we never seen before which I loved about that character. I know its legends content but I do hope they use it as a some what of a guidebook for the up coming Kenobi movie.

Thank you, I really enjoy your videos

Idk why the show couldn't just follow the comics and pre-established lore.

I like to think obi-wan picked up knitting, formed an impressive stamp collection, joined the AARP, and checked out homes in space Florida. Now because of Disney this isn't canon

Obi-Wan has to be one of my favorite characters in the entire series. He has a certain calm but calculating presence about him making you feel both safe and protected at the same time.

love the channel,i would love more obi wan ... stories/info.Kinda been fascinated with him recently.

he also killed maul in his free time

You, Sir, are the Morgan Freeman of Star Wars narration

Great video! Really love your breakdown of this!

Thanks for the info!!

Holy shit, what a shitty life...he could have begin a new life, what I would have done for sure! Respect to Obi, but I feel sorry for him, that halve of his life ended up being alone without any friends and family.

Here are some video ideas: What if Obi-Wan trained Luke Skywalker earlier What if Obi-Wan secretly married Duchess Satine What if Obi-Wan left the Jedi order for Satine What if Jar Jar Binks was a secret sith lord What if Jango Fett survived What if Bobo and Jango Fett died in the Clone Wars What if Anakin didn't train Ashoka What if Palpatine was a Jedi What if General Grievous was a Jedi

I just wanted to say you are awsome at doing this and I am and official fan of what you do because it helps fill us in man god bless you and your family

Always very classy videos. Good stuff. I really enjoy watching your videos while I have supper.

why didn't Obi jus train Luke himself from the start. keep him by his side.

He was getting high with the Hutts

luv your vidz mam

Such a noble and wise man...thats why the high ground is always with him

Wow.. this genuinely pisses me off. He was supposed to be studying and communing with Obi-wan far more. It's in episode 3! Feels like they are retconning the actual films with some of these comics.

Every day Star Wars Explained and Star Wars Theory upload together basically at the same time. today they put eachothers youtube channel names in eachothers video title. Illuminati confirmed.

these are so good to listening to

Congrats on 1 mil!

Obiwan:i should change his name so Anakin doesnt suspect anything Obiwan:Here is Luke GroundRunner

is it true that during his first few years in exile, Obi Wan would visit Shmi Skywalker's (Anakin's mother) grave and apologize to her for letting her son turn to the dark side? because if so, that's really sad :(

Best video so far!!!

I was curious. Was sidous really afraid of the zillow beast in clone wars?

Actually, in the cannon novel Kenobi, which, now that I've finished, I highly recommend, it elaborates on a western-ish story in approximately 18 BBY. Though it's a specific story rather than the broad scope of what he did. But it has great information. It's a Star Wars book, but it's different from the rest. It's more realistic and friendly, written more from a human perspective than a mystical Jedi, Force perspective. And one more thing: It's my favorite Star Wars book.

your videos are just awesome

dude I love how you can cover more in 5 minutes than others can in a 30 minute video

what if darth bane never created the rule of two

What if Kanye and Kim Kardashian never met?

Obi-Wan such a legend this vid shows how he sacrifices so much to protect family or people he cares about.

Great video

i have this book that i'm reading where i think obi-wan went on this secret mission to save a fellow jedi

Anyone here after watching the Kenobi series

The movie should be about a death trooper squad investigating a possible Jedi descendant on Tattoine. Obi Wan plays a cat and mouse game with them, watching over Luke until the end when they are about to find Luke's home. Obi Wan goes beast mode and takes them all out before they get there, also preventing any communications to the imperial fleet. Therefore Luke never knows, and neither does the Empire. Might need a side plot to fill the whole screen time but I think that would be pretty cool. Or maybe a fight with an inquisotor​ at some point...

Stroking his mustache! It’s what he does, it’s the Jedi way!!! And, according to him, he got poked in the coconut by some Seagulls.

What if Qui Gon got beheaded in the Phantom Menace?

Why was Luke the "last hope in the galaxy"? What about Leia? Why wasn't she trained in the ways of the force?

Hey! I recently discovered Star Wars Theory and I'm loving it! Great video by the way! Keep it up and may the force be with you! 😉

In a year or two, we're getting a whole ass series about it!!

645th..... I guess I'll leave now..

Until this Saturday, we know how he fought Maul. I really hope Maul survives, because he is my favorite character and I don't think Kenobi is able to win from Maul in this state. But if Maul needs to be killed, it's okay if Kenobi does it. Or he kills himself, I think that's the best way for Maul to go.. What do you think about this?

great, love the ending theme

Recently I had been thinking how utterly tragic it was that all the things Obi-Wan had done for Luke beforehand had absolutely zero recognition. He never got to raise him, never got to interact with him, never got to even meet him personally until Luke was almost grown. Always having to watch from afar. Dedicating his life to the protection and continuation of Luke's peaceful one. In a word, Obi-Wan *SACRIFICED* everything for Luke. At the very least, Luke learned some of what Obi-Wan had done for him after Ben died. He was more of a father to Luke than his own father ever could have been.

The best Jedi ever, Obi Wan Kenobi

I don't like sand.

Bro i love ur vids

Love the vid

What if anakin never met padme

The Obi Wan in that comic doesn't look like Obi Wan!

Hey, great work on the video, definitely need to check out these comics, I've only read one Obi-Wan Legends book, and I don't remember the title, or much about it, this was years ago, but I remember something about having a space battle with Boba Fett, and actually fighting him one on one

Funny how we are now in 2022 and there will be a tv show on this.

What if Obi-Wan raised Luke himself?

Did palpatine want padme to die

I seriously hope that Obiwan gets a movie because even though he isn't my favorite character, He is easily one the best characters in the franchise.

0:36 2020 **gets mentioned** Everyone: PTSD

what of Ahsoka didn't leave the Jedi order

Spoiler alert: they squandered it

I really need to read some of these comics. this was a great theory

Great video. Some many cool characters in starwars that could make for great movies like obi wan, boba fett, jabba the hutt, etc.

why didn't obiwan just take Luke under his care?

Too bad this story wasn't the Obi-Wan show.

Great video!! Hoping for an Obi Wan film

I can't be the only one who wants the Obi Wan movie to be about his time in Tatooine

I have a question... Was there a point in Obi-Wan's solitude where he figured out that he had not killed Anakin and that he was now Darth Vader? The reason I ask is because of a few lines from both A New Hope and Return of the Jedi. In A New Hope, when Obi-Wan and Vader meet on the Death Star, Darth Vader tells Obi-Wan "you should not have came back". At first, this made me think he was talking about the Order 66 purge and how Obi-Wan had escaped (he knew he escaped because of almost getting killed on Mustafar by him). But a line from Return of the Jedi makes me think there was more to it. In Return of the Jedi, when Darth Vader is talking to Luke after Luke gave himself up on Endor, Luke asks Darth Vader to let go of his hate. Vader replies with "Obi-Wan once thought as you do". Could this be a reference back to being confronted by Obi-Wan on Mustafar? I don't think so. Obi-Wan had one mission going there, and that was to kill Anakin / Darth Vader as ordered by Yoda in the bowels of the Jedi Temple. I have a theory that Obi-Wan thought for years that he had killed Anakin. Some how he heard rumors and whispers of Darth Vader, connected the dots, and figured out that he had failed his mission. He leaves Luke and his solemn duty to protect him to attempt to complete his failed mission of destroying Anakin / Vader. Somewhere along the line, they meet, battle, and Obi-Wan tries to get him to let go of his hate and end his suffering. This is obviously a failed attempt, so they battle more and each of them realize that neither of them will win. Vader tells Obi-Wan to go back to whatever hole he crawled out of and stay away from things bigger than both of them, to which he agrees and leaves. I could be WAY off here, but maybe not. What do you think?
