Although this was the best: Quote Well, I'm not Yoda...Okay, I'm Yoda. You're Yoda? You're the one that Obi-Wan sent me here to find. Will you teach me the ways of the Force? No, I will not teach you the ways of the Force...Okay, I'll teach you the ways of the Force. Coulda saved a lot of time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinus85 Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 5 hours ago, Ran said: Hide contents It's pretty explicit that Leia has not met Obi-Wan prior to ANH, and that Obi-Wan's association with Bail is, to her knowledge, dated back to the Clone Wars. How does this jive at all? Unless Obi-Wan is not actually going to meet her in the course of this series, or going to wipe her memory or something. Simplest way is a joint Obi-Wan & Bail rescue mission (throw some Rebel agents in there, too) and while Obi-Wan does the 'heavy lifting' Bail is the one that recovers Leia. It is important that they stay separate to protect both Leia and Luke so it's likely Obi-Wan will just avoid Leia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading this right now is the first time I realized that Rey did not start out on Tatooine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler Pretty sure this is essentially covered through Rogue One...when Bail is asked about his, "friend"...Leia might not have met Obi-Wan, but her adoptive father obviously told her what to do... And love it or hate it, the Family Guy Star Wars trilogy is some of the best roasting of the franchise...yet done as a love letter to it...I actually kinda wish they'd done another based on the prequels...

I was trying to think what character you were hinting at. I've said this before but I think the Bad Batch should die over the course of their final season to underscore the threat of the empire and the lack of hope. I'd love to see Omeega pop up as an adult though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myrddin Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Broken. Faithless. Beaten. That's absolutely how he should be. HIs best friend just flipped out and killed everyone dear to him. The institution that raised him, educated him, shaped him, failed. The single source of all the strife in the galaxy was right under his nose his whole career, and he had no idea. His friend's betrayal broke him. His misplaced faith in the Jedi order shattered. And Palpatine absolutely beat them all. Quite frankly, it's a miracle he was able to regain his zen and purpose over the 18 years between RotS and aNH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so miraculous. He ends up killing himself by suicide-by-cop. Also he's a fictional character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadlines? What Deadlines? Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 He's really more Space John the Baptist. Actually, a number of years ago there was a fan trailer for a Kenobi solo film that got uploaded to YouTube. They used footage from Last Days in the Desert, a 2015 film where McGregor plays Jesus. I had to double check that the cave photo wasn't taken from that film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
