'Sci-fi Noir' sums it up perfectly. Definitely got Blade Runner vibes from the first episodes. Hopefully, it's building up to something special. As long as we stay way from another Tatooine/random desert planet again, I don't mind 🙄.

Yep, you're right. There's no reason the Empire wouldn't have different human ethnicities if it was humans vs. aliens. Perhaps its because I've always associated the Rebels with a more diverse membership (a ragtag group of different races, genders etc.) that I found it a bit out of place.

Starting to really get into this now after Ep4. This series is the very definition of 'a breath of fresh air', after all the crap we've been served up lately. Heads above anything else we've been given on D+ SW (admittedly a low bar after the atrocious BOBF/Kenobi). The acting, cinematography...

Thanks to the kindness of Palifan and MarkZane, I've virtually completed my ESB FKS and ROTJ Panini childhood sticker albums. As a result, I've got a large number of spares, which I've accumulated over the years. If anybody is looking to complete their album, please let me know the numbers...

Crap Star Wars is better than no Star Wars.....apparently :unsure: .

A lot to enjoy in this episode. For me, a satisfying finale (with a few misfires). Whilst far from brilliant, things have improved on the writing front. It had some great moments. The Star Destroyer chase felt very ESB. The duel was suitably epic and Obi-Wans apology to Anakin was emotional...

Surely, that's just me speculating, based on the leaks (which, AFAIK have been pretty much spot on) and what has come before. Are we not allowed to speculate now? Dont think, just consume product. I later go on to say.... "On paper, it sounds awful, but that's not to say it won't turn out to...

I would suggest it was antagonistic, at the very least. Other posters have been critical of the series. Palifan has just stated that the series hasn't grabbed him and that he's "having more fun with Stranger Things and Ms Marvel". Are you going to tell him "Don't f***king watch it then"? Look...

Now, now. Play nice. Whilst I enjoyed the latest episode, the rumoured finale just doesn't sound very good (my opinion). You obviously disagree. That's the joy of the internet. On paper, it sounds awful, but that's not to say it won't turn out to be a fantastic, well written finale. Although...

Well, that was an improvement. A change of writer results in the series highlight, so far. After last weeks debacle, it couldn't get any worse. Loved the Anakin/Obi-Wan flashback (Haydens de-aging didn't go far enough imho) and the Order 66 scenes. Although, Im still not 100% how Reva...

I'm glad your neighbours enjoy the show. I'm envious of them. I have nothing against people who like DisneySW, I wish I shared their enthusiasm, believe me. But you can appeal to both the 'normies' AND the long-term fan base, by crafting well written, respectful shows rather than the crap we're...

"Weak" is one way of describing it.... Badly scripted, poorly acted, canon-breaking, amateurish, shambolic embarrassment of a show is another. I literally burst out laughing at two points. Episodes 5 & 6 had better be absolute bangers, or Disney can flush another show down the shitter. If that...

So far, I'm just not seeing the point to this series. The storyline isn't justifying the canon breaking. It was a bit 'meh', I'm afraid, let down by some truly WTF moments. My fear is they're giving Obi-Wan the Jake Skywalker treatment. Saying that, I enjoyed the Vader scenes (Vaders voice is...

I get that, but why did Disney make that pre-emptive statement before Kenobi was even released and people had chance to react to Moses performance? It just seemed a very cack-handed thing to do. To basically accuse the fan base of racism and kick up a storm of controversy. It was a veritable...

So you're telling me you take at face value everything you read or hear on the Internet. That seems to be extremely naive. Again I'm not suggesting these claims are false. They are extremely serious accusations. Just that we need to proceed with caution and not go in all guns blazing. The...

Where did I say they were making this **** up? Online and offline abuse is unfortunately a reality (from both sides of the political spectrum). It just seems fishy to me that this controversy has been allowed to overshadow the release of Kenobi. I'll ask again, where was the abuse claims...

Devils Advocate time. Regardless of what you think of the character or the actors performance, there is simply no excuse for that type of abuse and should be rightly called out. If true, these morons are simply not Star Wars fans. But..... I have to say, something feels very off with this...

Very much a mixed bag for me. From the sublime to the ridiculous over the two episodes. Just about gets a pass so far, but will wait to view the series as whole before getting a final reaction. One thing is obvious, Disney has a real problem filming chase scenes. It's getting beyond a joke...

Add me to the 'Never Seen Willow' list. It seemed to be a poor man's Hobbit/LOTR, which didn't really appeal. I'll definitely check it out before the new series starts though.

Another genius gone. Blade Runner was an iconic soundtrack. Loved his collaboration with Jon Anderson as well. RIP
