Wasn't it established in Clone Wars or a different cartoon perhaps that Qui Gon was not proficient enough to product a force ghost. So are you betting we'll hear his voice, or did something change?


Obi-Wan is the first force ghost we ever see, so at the very least we will see how he learns how to do it from Qui-Gon, or expands on what he learns from him to lead him to that ability.

Wait his ghost appeared to Obi-Wan?

Well that's crap, it totally breaks canon established in ROTS when Obi-Wan is shocked to learn he can communicate with Qui-Gon.

I will choose to ignore that.

According to comments on this YouTube video, it's not actually a force ghost, but rather a vision from their memories. Like Han in TROS.



So technically, no force ghost Qui-Gon as of yet.

We wont know until we find out how the force ghosts work, I guess. Does it require something from both people for the force ghost to appear, or can they just do it whenever they want to whoever they want

If I remember correctly, the mortis stuff was all visions generated by the 3 beings that lived there...but either way when they left mortis they had no memory of anything that happened there. So even if it was a real force ghost, which I don't think it was, Obi-Wan would still be surprised at the qui-gon news, bc he doesn't remember ever going to mortis

I will say I'm still hopeful the final three episodes will be so utterly awesome that it will unite this thread and SW fans around the world in joy and celebration.

(One can hope right? The rebellion is built on hope.)

Oh yeah….definitely calling it that we're either going to see qui-gon or Yoda (or even both) next episode

All I know is that they've mentioned his name twice now, in yearning fashion, and you don't do that unless you're going to pay it off.
And if they don't "pay it off", I predict 4+ pages of disappointment here.

1:20 here he says he can't.

Qui-Gon, at least his voice, is about the surest thing to be predicted in a show.

Ok but we also have Revenge of the Sith with Yoda telling Obi Wan about Qui Gon



Ghost or voice, we are getting qui gon in this show

I posted this above. That's my point -- Qui-Gon has never appeared as a force ghost, much less to Obi-Wan.

And this is exactly why we WILL see or hear him.

Obi-Wan will have to learn how to actually become a force ghost between now and ANH, from Qui-Gon.

Technically speaking, Qui-Gon figured it out on his own, so could Obi-Wan.

I said that also. (Expanding on whatever he does learn.)

I feel like nobody's actually reading my posts before replying.

Was it in a different post than the one just above? Cuz in that one you said "from qui-gon."

Have to wonder if the writers didn't take a bit of inspiration from this now classic vid.

Episode should start with Qui-Gon's ghost watching the duel of Episode 3 on tape and laughing his ass off at Obi'Wan's performance.

"And here he comes, and look at you, turning your lightsaber off and running away!" Good form!"

I just realized Episode 3 puts Obi-Wan's dueling record outside of the cartoons under .500.

TPM: 1-0 (Maul)
AOTC: 0-1-1 (a push with Jango, defeated by Dooku)
ROTS: 2-1 (defeated by Dooku again, kills Grievous, defeats Anakin)
OWK series: 0-1 defeated by Vader
ANH: 0-1 defeated by Vader

3-4-1

I wouldn't call ANH a defeat.

This is where the animation folks chime in and say Obi Wan took care of Maul again in Rebels.

But if I had read the score post correctly...I would have kept my mouth shut.

And it wasn't even close. Short, sweet, and dominating.

He took care of Maul like he took care of the LaserGate. Don't have time to walk around, get it over with and fast.

Show has been pretty meh so far. Like seeing Ewen in the role again, but I think the series is going to end up as very forgettable. Just another example of how Star Wars has no new ideas and is terrified to try to move beyond the movies and tell original stories.

I do think it's kinda cool how Leia naming her son Ben makes just a little more sense now, knowing their history.

In terms of the feels, that might have been "the moment" for me for TFA. And a great tip of the cap to the EU

Great thread from Pablo about Vader's fame/noteriety, or lack thereof.



Also comment from Phil.
