I am happy to see how Leia knows Obi-wan and explains why her ship would be caught near Tatooine and why she would send her "Help Me" message to him in the original movie.
Rogue One implies that Bail sends her to specifically pick up Obi-Wan and return with him to Alderaan.
My only quibble was that I thought Anakin = Vader was meant to be a secret. I wouldn’t have thought that even the inquisitors would know. (I understand Obi-Wan knows because he hears Anakin being called Vader in the temple recordings.)
Yeah, it did strike me as strange that Reva knew about Anakin. However, I think Vader was leader of the Inquisitors, right? Maybe he let them know this (or just Reva?) to use against Obi-Wan just as she did. It did bring to mind the scene in
Return of the Jedi where Vader senses that Luke has a sister.
What
really struck me as odd was the fact that Obi-Wan did not know Vader was still alive. I would think that "Vader as the Emperor's enforcer" would be widely known, and even in a backwater world like Tatooine he would have heard mention about it at
some point in 10 years. But I can handwaive this away for the effectiveness of that scene.
Other thoughts: Dang, Ewan really nailed the beaten down and depressed Obi-Wan. Though there were glimmers of the old Obi-Wan, such as in his conversation with Teeka.
The stimdealer Obi-Wan meets is played by Ewan's daughter, Esther Rose McGregor. Funny with her exit line.
Did some of the signs on Daiyu say "SW MILK"?
