Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

Or, it could simply be Kenobi sort of wandering around, Kane style, solving problems. So long as they keep the plots mostly self contained and not major (as in big, setting spanning stuff) the series could really be about anything it wants to be. People were asking for some Star Wars that isn't all about the main series - well, here's a good way to do it.
Well, OK, but if they do that, then Obi-Wan isn't really a crazy old hermit living out by the Dune Sea or whatever.

Why? No one really has to know. Would anyone notice if that crazy old hermit wasn't seen for a couple of months? The only person who calls Obi-wan that crazy old hermit is Uncle Owen who isn't exactly an unbiased observer here.

I dunno. It just puts the lie to the idea that Obi-Wan spent the better part of 20 years in hiding.

At this rate, Disney is going to have to remake the original trilogy, adjusting the dialogue that no longer tracks as true because of all the prequel stuff that has contradicted it.

Lucas did that already remember?

Sort of. I meant like completely remake with a new cast and everything. Everyone says Sebastian Stan would make a good Luke after all.

This reminds me of when Spielberg wanted to retroactively replace all guns in ET with walky talkies.
Yeah, that was silly. And the scene he added of ET in the bathtub is just as awful-looking as some of the extra scenes Lucas added to the OT.

Who said Obi-wan spent 20 years in hiding? As far as I can remember, that's never actually stated anywhere. We just assume it's true, but, the only real information we get from the movies is that he's a crazy old man and that's from the guy who really, really doesn't like him.

Although, as a prediction, I think something is going to have to happen to convince Vader that Obi-wan is dead. After all, Vader isn't convinced, it's not terribly believably that he couldn't find him again.
