Obi-Wan is show that has so much potential but falls flat on many fronts. The premise is fairly interesting, but the writing in the show in so unbalanced, that it pulled me out at times. There are so many times where character decisions are made simply due to plot progression that make not logical sense. This series is saved by the amazing performances by Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan and Hayden Christianson/James Earl Jones as Anakin/Darth Vader. The broken-down version of Obi-Wan in this series is …

I was Ultra Excited when Disney announced they would do a Obi-Wan Series on Disney+ I was excited Ewan McGregor agreed to return and even MORE excited when Hayden Christensen said he would return as Darth Vader. Meeting this new young lady playing a young Princess Leia was awesome. She embodied EVERYTHING Carrie Fisher was in life as Princess Leia...

But, it also manages to replace Luke with his sister in Star Wars lore. But, let's face it, it wasn't made for Star Wars fans, it was made for the political left wing book burning goose steppers who want nothing more to see every fandom fail, especially those which …

I've tuned into the first four episodes of the #ObiWanKenobiSeries on #DisneyPlus, and I have a bold claim to make - Star Wars television series are surpassing the movies in quality. In my opinion, the movies tend to overwhelm viewers with a barrage of information, making it challenging for casual fans to grasp the characters, terminology, and overall plot. Conversely, the television series excel at breaking down complex elements, drawing viewers in with character development and engaging …
