[QUOTE="Imaculata, post: 8654408, member: 6801286"] So, I finally started watching this show. So far, I like it. The mood is dark, I like the look of the show, and Ewan Mc Gregor is great as beaten down old Obi Wan. And most importantly, there is a plot with a middle and an end. Young Leia is great, but the writers shouldn't give her very complicated dialog. It seems very odd coming out of a 10 year old's mouth. Acting wise, I'm a little bit more forgiving towards child actors. Boy, those kidnappers in episode 1 were really trying hard not to catch up with Leia! Reva is very weak in the first episode, but she gets a little better with episode 2 and 3. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes actors need time to get comfortable with their character. Plus, that outfit in a desert can't be comfy. Some cyberpunk-esque stuff in episode 2, which I enjoyed. The jedi fraud was fun. The rooftop shoot out had some weird editing, but I'll give it a pass. Another slow chase where Leia slowly gets away though. I do enjoy how they depict Obi Wan's trauma. The whole checkpoint scene in episode 3 was silly. The stormtroopers really had no idea what the jedi they're looking for looks like, despite him wearing the most obvious jedi outfit imaginable? Weren't they informed he had a young girl with him too? And shooting the laser barricade was a bit of a set design blunder. But there is also a lot to like. I enjoy the practical suit creatures and real sets. James Earl Jones is back, and they did a good job making Vader menacing. His fight with Obi Wan was fine imo. I also liked how he dragged him through the fire. Why did Vader not immediately pursue Obi Wan? The way I interpreted it, it looked like he was having an introspective moment. Besides, it's not like Vader is ever in a hurry. I geeked out when I saw the Imperial Shuttle in the background, and the probe droids, not gonna lie. I hope we see some more Fallen Order crossover stuff. I really feel like Fallen Order got Star Wars right, and so far this show is echoing a similar vibe. Obi Wan will obviously get back in touch with the Force slowly over the course of the show and I'm here for it. Lets hope they don't ruin it in the next couple of episodes. [/QUOTE]
