Good luck with that.
Thereās some kind of Obi Wan quite about bigger fools that probably applies hereā¦
I canāt help it. I keep hoping they wonāt screw it up, no matter how many times they do.
Dang. Not a Trekkie, but this looks promising and the reviews of the first episode are pretty darn favorable. Said itās a throwback to classic Trek storytelling (one episode = one story, with the same themes and mood as old Trek). No complaints about heavy woke messaging, etc.
Of course it airs the day after the month is signed up to watch USMNT soccer ends. Is it worth reupping my subscription?
I have a paramount and watched discovery and Picard. Discovery was in full woke mode. Picard wasnāt as bad but still had moments.
I watched bits and pieces of both and they just werenāt good. The writing was bad and the storylines varied between uninteresting and depressing. There was none of the classic sense of wonder, etc of the old shows.
Discovery was particularly awful.
I enjoyed second Picard more so than the first. Discovery was just bad.
Also moonknight is bonkers. Watching finale tonight and off to Dr strange tomorrow.
This guy fell asleep watching the first 3 episodes and hated the show. Thought youād at least find it an interesting read @Nineradvocate
Iāve been trying to make myself watch episode 10 for the longest time (months now). Hard to get into it.
IGN: Andor Heads to Disney+ in August.
Obi Wan - first two episodes?
Pacing is pretty slow, without much payoff. Writing feels very thin.
Itās a bait and switch. Show is really about the junior inquisitor character. They ādeconstructedā (made him a depressed wimp) Obi Wan too. Full on Luke treatment. Gross.
I wish they left Obi Wanās bravery and nobility intact.
Wish we got a Satine / Mandalore flashback.
And I wish they hadnāt killed Ventress off in Clone Wars. She would have been a much better baddie.
Just watched the latest Better Call Saul episode and it keeps getting better. What a great show.
I wanted so much to like this show but itās almost laughably bad writing and acting. I may give it another episode and hope it improves but dang, Disney is missing a lot more than theyāre hitting nowadays.
The chase scene with kiddy Leia is probably the worst thing I have ever seen in Star Wars. And thatās really saying something. They had to keep cutting away because the adults kept catching up to her. It was brutal.
Honestly, it reminded me of some of the comically bad Hoth outtakes that got left on the cutting room floor. I canāt believe the bar has been lowered so much.
Kathleen Kennedy reportedly stepped in and made them rewrite this showā¦ She has been an absolute failure with this IP. One of the worst stewardships of an established IP in the history of everything.
I donāt understand why they have a 5 year old playing a 10 year old alsoā¦ I have a 10 year old daughter and sheās a giant compared to that little girlā¦ its just so unrealisticā¦ hope it getās better but like you said so far no good.
EDIT: so I was curious and looked up how old the actual actress is, she will turn 10 next week. so I guess she was 9 when the filmedā¦ maybe even 8? She is just so short, and like you said 3 grown adults could catch her in a minuteā¦ horrible.
