One thing I’ve noticed with modern Star Wars opinions among the fan base is that for the most part, if a show or movie stars characters from the mainline Skywalker Saga, then it’s bad. If it doesn’t, and only has them in cameos, then it’s good.
That’s completely incorrect. Legacy characters have just proven to be the main thing that new Lucasfilm cannot do justice with…they don’t get it and they are arguably damaging the intelligence or subtle uniqueness of the characters that we’ve already known for years. I didn’t go into Kenobi thinking it will be “bad” because it’s a Skywalker Saga character…but low and behold, they dropped the ball completely imo. 4/10. And I really wanted to love this, it was my hope after seeing Boba ruined in TBOBF.
I mean, some people may “auto-hate” when they know a legacy character will show up, but it’s not this black and white situation in the fan base.
