Well whether we care about them or not, we know they're not surviving this series. Maybe it's more about how Obi-Wan cares, and then not making it effects him... I'm not sure how much it matters now, but Lucas once said he imagined hundreds of Jedi survived Order 66. I don't see why a Jedi introduced here couldn't survive and then maybe pop up elsewhere. The trailer seems to suggest that the guy shown at :56 is a Jedi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well whether we care about them or not, we know they're not surviving this series. Maybe it's more about how Obi-Wan cares, and then not making it effects him... I read that in Superintendent Chalmers' voice. Yeah, from the rest of the canon it does appear that at least a few Jedi and Padawan survived, and after a brief period trying to lawyer it out (well, they were retired Jedi and ex-Padawan, not Jedi who survived) they seem to have just said that yes, out of the many thousands of Jedi, it is utterly implausible that the fairly clumsy Order 66 managed to take them all out.

Darryk Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I think it looks great. I don't care that he know what's going to happen. I like seeing characters develop into the people we know they become. Obi-wan has a potentially interesting journey of having to regain his faith, just hope Disney don't screw it up by forcing them to put stupid muppets and other Happy Meal toys in.

Kalbear Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 2 hours ago, DaveSumm said: I’ve really never understood the complaint that you know someone will survive a series. Is that the only reason to tune in, to see if someone dies or not? Like 95% of TV shows wouldn’t have the balls to just off a leading character, it doesn’t make them bad. It's not quite that you know they won't die. It's that you know at the end of the day precisely where they're going to be and how they're going to end up. And while you'll also hear often that old bullshit about the journey being the destination, etc, sometimes the destination is actually pretty important.

polishgenius Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I don't think the music in the sequel trilogy was in itself bad but it did feel a little not-quite-right and I think this video might have put its finger on why: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, for all the faults of the sequels (and there were many, many faults), this isn't one of them. It's the classic Hero's Journey for the hero to return to the same place/come full circle, but the hero is changed. Yes, with sand, a droid, and an old woman, but she's grown from a lonely scavenger to a Jedi with family and purpose. I'm not going to defend the "Rey Skywalker" or all that jazz, but where she ended (burying the past and starting over) was perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
