Obi-Wan Kenobi (Disney+) TV Show • Page 35

yeah my dude we even literally already got the teenage vader trilogy that no one asked for

 

"Until you overcome it, a padawan you will still be"

Obi-Wan has been hanging out with Yoda too much.

 

best ep yet, but only cuz its 2 stars and the rest are hovering in the 1 zone

I’m not feeling Disney Darth Vader at all. Feels like a pretty big misunderstanding of the character to me.

In the OT he’s scary because he’s so passive and threatening, not cuz he’s snapping necks at random. The choking people in Empire is played as a gag. That’s not what makes him a good villain, and the attempts here to portray him as brutal come across more laughable than menacing.

 

The quality of this show is like that of a PS1 cut scene

 

People love to throw around comparisons to PS1 games (not this specifically but in general) and I often wonder if people really remember what PS1 games were like.

 

Yawn, boring take

 

Hanging out with Yoda not enough Obi Wan has

 

Tbh, most of the takes in here are pretty boring.

 

at this point i don’t really trust them to deliver something satisfying that isn’t an original story as it all devolves to way too much fan service, so i’d rather them not give us a vader series

 

Yeah, I take it back. I watched the Shadows Of The Empire cut scenes and it’s more interesting than this show

 

My non boring take is that even as a Star Wars fan I can admit that 75% of Star Wars content sucks.

 

Isn’t that the fun of star wars?

In the 90’s i feel like the bonding experience among kids was lovingly mocking how ridiculous star wars is. A thing everyone has an almost religious relationship with, that’s so good and really thoughtful, and also so perfectly stupid

 

Some of you clearly had a different experience growing up with Star Wars than I did...

 

I mean I didn’t mock the original trilogy growing up. I thought it ruled.

 

i.e.

 

That’s completely different than most Star Wars content being straight up bad/unwatchable.

 

this was close to my favorite n64 game! the sewer level went hard! and you just blew my mind because i had no idea the pc version of the game had these cutscenes with voiceovers.

 

what does this mean haha

 

Holy shit, Shadows of the Empire is such a blast from the past!!! Absolutely loved that game! Spent far too many hours playing it. Might have been my favorite N64 game.

 

I never had any of the star war games on N64 besides the podracing game

 

shadows of the empire was actually ahead of its time

 

I remember Shadows Of The Empire being like this really weird event where they put out the game, a book, and a comic all at the same time, like it was this really significant addition to the franchise.

 

i believe internally, Lucas Arts conceived of the Shadows Of The Empire era as an episode in the saga without a film. All of the extra stuff that would have surrounded a new moive except no movie

 

The book is incredible but of course it's no longer canon.

The game is equally incredible. Dash Rendar the GOAT.

 

At the beginning of the pandemic i bought all the N64 Star Wars games:

Rogue Squadron is 10/10 obviously

Don’t care about Pod Racer

Battle For Naboo is a dark horse, really good sorta sequel to Rogue Squadron. I don’t like it as much cuz I like x wings more than naboo starfighters, but the gameplay is really smooth

Shadows Of The Empire is frustrating. Very very very cool, but it’s a not very fun mess of a game
