Jonathan Starwarse is a national treasure.

Part of what is funny to me is the big push is based on three characters who are already dead?
Kenobi/Vader/Andor
I don't want to be too much of a wet blanket, but do we need to learn anything more about these characters? I am excited about Kenobi and look forward to Ewan, but I also don't feel like I need to learn anything more about the character.
And it seems like they are really refusing to address post-Rise of Skywalker Star Wars which they will have to do sometime.
The continued churning of the nostalgia part of Star Wars is wearing thin.

Without giving away spoilers, do I need to finish Boba Fett before watching Kenobi for any reason? I assume not considering Kenobi is long since dead when Boba Fett happens.
I can't think of any reason why it would be required for kenobi.
At the rate they've been doing crossovers, nothing is safe. Padme could make a Force Ghost appearance and it wouldn't surprise me.
Without having seen anything in Kenobi, I still think watching Book of Boba Fett would add nothing to Kenobi. (And as it turned out, BBF was mostly a waste of time).
BoBF is like 20 years after Kenobi, I can't see how anything could possible be relevant.
That's what I assumed. Never finished it and just don't have desire to watch it right now.
I enjoyed the last episode for what it's worth. It was an oddly-structured show for sure.YouBet said:

Time traveling space whales.
Clone Wars time
Palpatine built an entire planet army navy space group while tethered to life support after falling down a skyscraper shaft...anything is possible.Red Five said:

Finished with the Mandalore Plot arc + Shadow Collective arc.
Have to say these 6 episodes work pretty well as a semi self-contained story, and incidentally a nice little primer for Mando / BOBF.
Good to have that backstory now between Obi-Wan and Satine, which I doubt will play any role for the new show, but still nice to have.
Gonna skip the Siege of Mandalore for now since I've seen that before, but will probably do Ahsoka's Exit arc + Siege of Mandalore before Ahsoka next year.
Onwards to ROTS!
Kids decided to put on BoBF last episode while we wait to go get haircuts…..good grief I forgot how underwhelming this episode was after the prior 2….
The little spin and shoot was even more painful to watch again…..
Literally 0 casualties from Cob Vanths militia or the Vespa kids from being pursued by countless Pikes and the giant Destroyer robot…..
Amy Sedaris is at her worst from her acting in the Star Wars Universe….
Man I hope none of the crap from this ends up in Kenobi

Well Robert Rodriguez isn't involved so I think we're good.
The last five minutes of ROTS is still utter perfection. From Padme's funeral, focusing on the jappor snippet Ani gave her in TPM, to Palpatine, Tarkin, and Vader watching the Death Star construction, to Bail dropping off Leia in Alderaan with Leia's Theme, to Obi-Wan dropping off Luke and closing with the Binary Sunset.
So good.
So good.
Lucas couldn't write dialog to save his life, but the man is an unparalleled visual storyteller, especially when paired with a John Williams score.
Does this include the Darth Vader "NNNNOOOOooooooooo!!!!!"?
No, that is before these. I purposely left it off.

Too bad the rest of the movie is terrible.
From my point of view your posting is terrible.

I used to think Revenge was the best of the prequels, but lately I've found it very hard to watch. It has some good moments, but it just has so much more that is just so bad.
Lmao
Oh good grief these are the kind of things we go to hell for laughing at!
These are dope.
Needs 80's style action movie trailers to go with themBrian Earl Spilner said:

The last one has that Japanese reed sound - sounded like Karate Kid
I started playing these in bed last night while my wife was trying to go to sleep….
"What the hell are you listening too?"
"80s themed Star Wars music."
*eye roll*
