Why'd you ask Leia how old she was, Obi-Wan? You were at her birth, dude.
That was seriously my biggest complaint.

Hopefully we are done with 9 to 5 Obi-wan. Driving his vehicle to the park-n-ride, then taking mass transit to his mind numbing job, clock in, work, clock out, then mass transit back to the park-n-ride, and finally back home.
Pretty much built in that him being an alien species (https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Pau%27an) would potentially allow him to survive something like thatFlashdiaz said:Aggie_Journalist said:gougler08 said:
So is the Grand Inquisitor going to come back or are we just assuming he gets revived somehow in time for Rebels?
Star Wars has become a universe where death is rarely permanent.
- Maul
- Emperor
- Boba Fett
- IG unit from Mando
- Fennec Shand (Boba Fett's partner)
- The sheriff in Book of Boba Fett
- (arguably) Vader
No reason they can't patch the inquisitor back up, too.
if they bring back the inquisitor, I hope they explain why they couldn't bring back qui gone from a similar skewering.
I just assumed he was kidding...
Maybe if people could criticize without dropping an n-bomb, they wouldn't have to make statements like thisaTmLoKi said:We are proud to welcome Moses Ingram to the Star Wars family and excited for Reva’s story to unfold.

All of you who who didn't appreciate the Third Sister's acting are racist!

Obi-Wan Dreams of Sushi wasn't your cup o' tea?
i didn't mind that actually I thought it was balanced enough with what else happened in the first episode to show how mundane his solitude has become and yet he doesn't want to leave it because of Luke…tk for tu juan said:

Yeah, it's fine for the first episode, just do not need to be reminded of work when trying to escape into a different galaxy
Yeah, if anything I thought that part was the good part. He's resigned himself to this mundane life until Luke is older.
The bad part was like... everything else that happened on Tatooine. The inquisitors are chasing a random Jedi, who finds Obi Wan (?), at one point the inquisitors are within like 20 feet of Obi Wan and don't realize it, they find the random Jedi and kill him (off screen for some reason), Reva knows of the connection between Obi Wan and Bail Organa AND knows that Darth Vader is Anakin Skywalker but doesn't know of the connection between Skywalker/Obi Wan and this exact planet that they're on? She doesn't use the mind probe trick on Owen, which could have given her some really crucial info.
And then none of that really matters anyway because her big trap for Obi Wan involves Leia who's on another planet. That entire sequence took place presumably just to show that Obi Wan was willing to let another Jedi die to protect his (and Luke's) identities.
There's just a lot of lazy writing in that whole sequence. Nothing is truly an outright plot hole, but it involves several cosmic coincidences for no real reason.

The problem with the Star Wars twitter statement is having an account at all. Just delete it and ignore Twitter.
Problem solved.
Problem solved.
Took 2 episodes just to show that 3rd Sister is trippin trippin.
Honestly the actors who aren't on social media have it right. Why even allow trolls that opportunity.

Yeah this is a bit much.
Disney: "Don't be racist. Unless you're China, then we don't care as long as you make us richer."
I don't know. I guess hubris, ego, and fame won't allow most of them to just not do it.Brian Earl Spilner said:

Get off social media and we would all be remarkably happier. Wouldn't even hear about racism crap over this.
All it takes is a few users to tweet something, and the bots follow up and pile on.

Absolutely his sarcasm - he wasn't really asking her age for his information.
For those calling out Twitter specifically, they also posted the exact same thing on their Facebook page.
Look, I couldn't care less about Reva, or Baby Leia, or the Three Stooges abduction team, or the Tatooine meat packing district. I just wanna see Darth Vader. And not in a fish tank. Is that so hard?

It had a very "Nobody" feel to it if you've seen that movie. It kept showing his day to day boring life and he finally couldn't take it anymore.jeffk said:tk for tu juan said:

In one case, he's a secret agent. In this case, we have a Jedi.
Wasn't he playing stupid so that his Jedi secret remained intact as long as possible?Average Joe said:double aught said:

Or maybe we're heading towards a Falling Down situation
CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.
Because social media means marketing and sponsorships which means more money. Same with pro athletesBrian Earl Spilner said:

People ask kids their age all the time when they already know the answer.
The real question is: how are Luke and Leia both ten when Tatooine and Alderaan very likely have different length years.
Take your science out of my sci-fi

I think that the destruction of Coruscant in that fashion is one of my biggest gripes with the ST (there are many). Seemed so out of place and didn't even have an impact on anything else from what I remember.
Wait... When was Coruscant destroyed?
It wasn't….
I was bout to say... Unless I've missed something major then Coruscant is still very much a planet.
I think it says a lot about the sequel trilogy that several people seem to think Coruscant got blown up.
