I have a lot of good and bad thoughts on the finale, but I have to say, the darkness of the shots in these episodes were worse than the Long Night episode of Game of Thrones. My dad and I just had to guess what was going on on Tatooine. Maybe it would be better if I watched it on my phone or something, but it ruined any potential emotional moment Reva had. Sounds like it was emotional, at least!

Also, I have to say the shaky cam cinematography of these lightsaber duels is embarrassing. I think it is going to make this show feel dated when looking back it years down the road.

I think the finale did tie up some things in an interesting way, but I feel like Obi-Wan leaving Anakin/Vader alive is a weird decision. Like, years down the road he is going to tell Luke that he HAS to kill Vader, but he couldn’t even do it himself… TWICE… when he easily could’ve finished him off.

It was cool to have Hayden in the suit and Ewan do a scene together. I think Obi-Wan was tearing up, but again, kinda hard to tell with how dark it was. I didn’t like the Force Unleashed level of force powers. I think it would’ve been more clever if they found a way to bridge the combat styles from ROTS and ANH. Maybe Vader would be very intense against Obi in their first duel, like ROTS, but then Obi would be a lot more controlled and thoughtful with his attacks and counters against Vader in their second duel. This would make Vader be more careful when fighting him again in ANH. Not sure if any of that makes sense.

I think it was Ady who mentioned this, but it does seem weird that Reva wants to kill Luke, but we are never told or shown that Reva understands the significance of Luke, and if she does, how she concluded that just based off Bail’s message.

Anyway, I agree with Nev that the highlight for me was the stuff between Obi and Leia, regardless of any potential continuity quibbles. Fun but generally disappointing though.
