I’ve been trying to find what lies behind my differing views from many of you about TLJ, TROS, and now Kenobi.

I can honestly understand defending TLJ to a degree. I hate the Luke thing, and Snoke was a joke, but it’s the most creative and exiting of the sequels. What I find baffling is defending Kenobi and, most of all, TROS.

Even in terms of cheap fan-service that you like so much Kenobi failed to deliver on its potential. Virtually no Vader until the very end, no actual real inclusion of Qui-Gon in the story, no learning from Yoda, and absolutely zero connection or mention, let alone flashback, of The Clone Wars.

And TROS shits all over TLJ and retcons every character and plot thread in that film. How can one like TLJ and not hate TROS? Plus, there are enormous amounts of evidence of the fact that everyone who worked on that film hadn’t the slightest clue what they were doing.
