Obi Wan Disney Plus Show Ewan returning - Page 9

Doesn’t she only know him as Ben? I’m guessing she at least must know at some point he’s on Tatooine. I’m hoping it shows ObiWan getting his house at the end, the one we see him in ANH so he isn’t in that cave anymore.

Still, it's only 10 years. She's going to recognize him at 20, particularly with what's happening. You might forget your 8th birthday party... but you won't forget the first Jedi you ever met in your life who made you levitate the day you met him when you're 10. That's going to stick and I don't think they'll insult our intelligence quite that much to insinuate that it won't on its own.

So it turns out it's the latter:

Suddenly Disney's preemptive "anti-racial shielding" (AKA: nu-marketing) of Obi-Wan for her makes complete sense. Also, way to go to prematurely kill any suspense whatsoever about her fate in Obi-Wan.

I say go for it Disney! Go for it! Just like the planned Rian Johnson "trilogy" and all of the other woke $#!(. Keep putting it out there, give it a shot. Let's see this audience who "demands woke $#!( content" support it.

Two years from now:

"Reva season 1 failed because of racist, fascist bigots!"

I'm definitely not going to watch a show about an angry black woman.

I don't see a problem with a show about "an angry black women" at all. But her portrayal of an evil Sith lord is horrible.

If she went in to play a fantasy-laden Sith rather than a hoodrat with a shank and an attitude there probably wouldn't be the backlash.

This message is perfect, pure art. I want to remember it.

Not to sh** on your point, but apparently she isn't a Sith or a Sith Lord. All the inquisitors are just basically "Diet" Dark Jedi who barely have any powers and as a result rely on their twirly lightsabers to better deflect blasts and stuff. At least, this was what was explained to me by others because I never saw "Rebels."

Okay fine, then take my exact post. Replace "Sith" with "Diet Dark Jedi" and there you have it.

Don't know the guy personally, but all the time and money he invested into this... gawd dayum, I'm envious but I wish him all the success in the world.

I liked when Adam Corolla was on Bill Maher's panel a few weeks ago, and there was some roundtable discussion going on, and one of the panelists said that racism and white supremacy were clearly the biggest problem facing America, and Corolla just said "That's bullsh*t."

So much manufactured outrage. Literally "manufactured". And people wonder why the current crop of "stars" can't be taken seriously, and all vanish into obscurity as soon as they get "famous"? Or why young people in general are so ill-equipped to navigate the Real World? All they do is whine and complain about how unfair everything is and how everyone is an evil racist misogynist transphobe. And then they wonder why we get sick of them immediately.

Is there a video of that up I can see? I see a 7 minute clip on Youtube of it but it's not very juicy. I did catch Bill Maher on the Adam Carolla Show a few weeks back.

~~Leo656~~ · 06-13-2022, 10:34 PM

I don't know, I'm not sure it went any deeper than him saying "That's bullsh*t" and a few people acting uncomfortable. I don't watch Bill Maher, I only catch snippets of it when I'm cooking or passing through the living room on my way to the bathroom.

Now they have Hayden talking about the racism:

Like Eric July says, they gotta keep trying to speak it into existence.

Like, nobody likes this character, nobody asked for this character. When you title a show after Obi Wan, you want it to be about him, not this fanfic POC. They probably cast a POC on purpose so that they can call anyone that complains about the **** writing a racist.

Reva tells Leia Obi-Wan, by name, died in the previous episode so there goes "She knows him as only Ben."

Didn't even bother de-aging Haden in tonight's episode's flashbacks...

*CyberCubed* · 06-15-2022, 08:31 AM

I genuinely couldn't tell if they de-aged them or not. Hayden looks a little older but not that much.

Reva should have died here, but I knew Disney would never let a black female killed on-screen like this. So the black female survives Vader stabbing her with the lightsaber because she is black.

Why are you guys watching this show still?

It's the same thing for every Star Wars show (except Mandalorian, I guess). People hate the characters, particularly the new ones that end up taking over. People hate what is done to the canon characters. People hate the bad storytelling and character arcs. Show ends on an unsatisfying note, and the fans complain about how Disney Star Wars sucks.

...Then people tune in for the next Star Wars show. Spoiler alert: It's going to be the same stuff again. It's been clear, for years even, that Lucasfilm has their own 'vision' for Star Wars that they are not deviating from.
