Yeah Disney got me with this one... I'm about to pay them some money. Fuck it..
The story begins 10 years after the dramatic events of “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith” where Obi-Wan Kenobi faced his greatest defeat—the downfall and corruption of his best friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, who turned to the dark side as evil Sith Lord Darth Vader. The series stars Ewan McGregor, reprising his role as the iconic Jedi Master, and also marks the return of Hayden Christensen in the role of Darth Vader. Joining the cast are Moses Ingram, Joel Edgerton, Bonnie Piesse, Kumail Nanjiani, Indira Varma, Rupert Friend, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Sung Kang, Simone Kessell and Benny Safdie. “Obi-Wan Kenobi” is directed by Deborah Chow and executive-produced by Kathleen Kennedy, Michelle Rejwan, Deborah Chow, Ewan McGregor and Joby Harold

I guess you forgot Bout that time when thise girl hipped geeks dressed up in storm trooper klansmen outfits in protest of star wars episode 7 when they thought finn was going to be the main hero be ause if those misleading commercials. I have no time for them at all. there's racist MCU fans as wellIt’s crazy because I don’t remember them hating on Lando or Mace Windu. All of a sudden they hate new black characters which is just some weak ass peckerwood shit. SMH

The first two episodes were dope af! If you’re in this thread and haven’t watched the show yet, then this is on you. Lol! A few things for me:
1. I loved that they got a young Leia in this. Didn’t expect that and it was cool seeing her. Seeing how smart but yet how naive she is definitely shows how much she grows into who she became. But like any smart ass kid, she frustrates the shit outta you.
2. Obi Wan definitely doing his best to stay low-key. It’s great to see the lengths he goes through to try and stay hidden. As one of the most bad ass Jedi ever, it has to be guy wrenching not to be able to help those in need. And also to be reminded of your failures daily. The nightmares of pretty much losing everything you’ve ever known has to weigh heavily.
3. Reva’s relentless quest to bring in Obi Wan is interesting. I’m really wanting to know why she’s so hell bent outside of pleasing Vader. Seems like there’s definitely more to it. To consistently disobey orders just to get at Obi Wan has me feeling it’s something deeper. I like her character though because she’s a sista on a mission.
4. All the little Easter eggs were dope. I liked that they showed the clone trooper being a homeless beggar. The Empire just threw them cats away like yesterday’s trash. Shoutout to dude reprising his role as a clone. They say that Mark Hamil also had a little blink and you’ll miss it cameo. It did low key look like him. Wonder if anyone else will catch it? Lol
5. The opening as dope. I know some people may feel a way due to the recent tragedy, but this is something integral to Stat Wars lore. Order 66 from another view. I was wondering if they were about to show Grogo being save for a second there.
6. FUCKING VADER!!!! That moment for Obi Wan sensing him and then him sensing Obi Wan was great. Episode ends!
Stay strong man, the binge is strong with this one.Don't say that,Im trying to binge it later...

Hold out I was, but watch it I shall. "Thanks to your comments. "100% Agree.
They hit a Grand Slam with those two episodes.
The recap going thru the first 3 movies was done superb, wrapped it all up to give you a quick review.
The Clone Trooper was nice, anybody catch the actor playing him. That was a good cameo.
The actress playing Leia hit it right out of the park with the smart mouth and stubbornness. And Obi Won remembering Dutchess Satine from Clone Wars making the similarities to Leia.
I was gonna hold out for episode 3, but gave in. Definitely worth it.
Yea no doubt...any bikini pics float arounding i need to see what them thighs look like butt naked...The sister is thick, but her acting sucks
I think its screenplay/ dialogue and the director's instruction - caused her to do a lot of over actingThe sister is thick, but her acting sucks
Yup, you sun it up perfectly! I love the sister, Leila, and how they put the first two episodes together. I have a feeling this series is going to be epic, more than I could ever imagine.The first two episodes were dope af! If you’re in this thread and haven’t watched the show yet, then this is on you.

Man, I kept thinking the same thing, like “damn let me find out she got some bikini pics or something I can look at” Geeze, I guess I don’t have Jedi powers after all.Yea no doubt...any bikini pics float arounding i need to see what them thighs look like butt naked...
I cannot disagree, but they had to lay down some sorta context before they get into the real shit that’s about to go down. Everyone can’t be the best actors. I’m sayin that I just went along for the ride, but I think this series is loaded. Oh and the thick thighs is calling me forrrealzzz.really beautiful cinematography and camera work
and good story...
I think its screenplay/ dialogue and the director's instruction - caused her to do a lot of over acting
the dialogue in Reva and Leia scenes was not good...
Did you guys notice young Reva as one of the younglings in the Order 66 scene?
