This show is like the easiest to take the **** out of. Easy win for the likes of Auralnauts.

I wish they would come up with some original sci-fi series/movie/concepts.

These new star wars shows are so meh.

I loved the original movies growing up, such a big fan of the star wars universe, I would even go as far to say I have an appreciation of where Lucas took the prequels the older I get.

I’ve just tried the first episode of Obi Wan, sadly no burning desire to see anymore which is so disappointing.

We need a completely new era. Isn’t that what they’re working on next? 500 years ahead. Everyone has forgotten about the skywalkers. All new characters/stories, that’s what we need. Filling in backstories just gets messy.

The counting to ten bit nearly killed me

I had to turn off this weeks episode, it was just so poor.

I was sort of hoping that when Reva got sabred that they would go against expectations and let her die. But nope, they can't let her die as she's actually the focus of the show.

Poor Qui Gin Jinn, the only jedi in history to die after getting stabbed with a light saber

If only they had taught Obi Wan about force heal.

If only this show had competent writers.

So many miserable armchair Directors / film critics in here. Each to their own but I'm enjoying it. It's Star Wars, it's entertaining and its got spaceships and lightsabers. What's not to like.

That's the subjective part though isn't it

The absolute **** writing for a start.

God, I can't watch this anymore - Ben smuggling Leia out under a comedically oversized coat, I could look past most of the issues but i'm so done.

They could have like put her inside a robot or something at least but that was too much to think about

You think that theres thought involved with this? :eek:

Just finished this, resisted reading this thread. Not surprised after reading it though I agree with most people.

Thought this was easily the worst of TBoBF and Mandalorian. So disappointed.

Of all the things you could pick to get annoyed at you chose his tent coat?

It was an unfeasibly large coat though, I can see that trend catching on with furniture shoplifters ”ere mate fancy a double bed”.

It even makes for a plot point, say there is a cart with goods on it, they push all the stuff on the floor and stuff Leia in. Third Sister walks past the mess notes in but thinks nothing of it. Then cut to crowded hangar and she glances pas the people pushing cart then realises that's where the mess was from. It demonstrates her competence whilst being a far more plausible way to transport a a child through a base.

But then what would we have to moan about?

Won't you please think of the forums!!!

No one hates Star Wars as much as a star wars fan
