Everyone wants to see Luke being a badass in the sequel trilogy,

Legends Luke was too OP and flies in the nature of the movie character, IMO. TLJ was a much more plausible Luke, but that’s a discussion for another day. Being a badass doesn’t always mean it’ll be a good and complex character.

everyone wanted to see Vader in action in the prequels (not 5 min),

Maybe? IDK as much about the fan community then, but was there much of a call to have Vader appear in Ep II or early Ep III?

everyone wanted to see Anakin and Obi-Wan being really good friends in the prequels, etc. (And they get none of this)

Clone Wars gave fans that to a significant extent.

If they decide to continue the show to another “season” with Deborah Chow and the same/random writers…then we don’t want this show, haha. We, apparently, are always going to come up with better story ideas because we are not Disney shills with agendas and misunderstanding of the rules of the SW galaxy. This show and TBOBF have proven that they often have very little clue about how to construct SW stories properly or with care. Everyone here has suggested terrific stories for another season that fit better with the universe and the Kenobi character…don’t count on this company doing anything remotely close to that quality.

To campaign for a second season, to them, would be rewarding their mediocre attempts and encouraging more.

You don’t speak for me.

If there was to be a season two, skip a few years to get a graying Kenobi (with a wig that looks like Sir Alec’s wig) going up against some Hutt BS or a force-sensitive bounty hunter that endangers Luke/the citizens of the Dune Sea. Maybe this is the incident that makes Owen go “no contact” with Kenobi (if Joel Edgerton’s salary demands are met/he’s not too busy).

Maybe find a live-action Satine for flashbacks? Her absence is understandable in this story, but it would be nice to have her acknowledged.

Maybe you could have Kenobi have premonitions of his encounter with Maul as well.

The issue there is that Ray Park had a falling out with Lucasfilm. However, any stuntman that looks close enough would work as long as Sam Witwer is still providing the voice.

That would ruin the twist in TESB entirely.

For anyone who’s less then 5 years old, lives under a rock, or has been in a coma since 1979.

This reminds me, Anakin’s name reveal in ROTJ is very nonchalant. You’d think it’d be a bigger moment (from the 1983 perspective), but it’s just dumped out unceremoniously.

Personally, I’d get rid of the youngling slaughter implication in Kenobi. Maybe Reva could be restructured as a young force-sensitive who was found by and recruited into the Inquisitors?

Turning Anakin into “School Shooter in Space” just pushes him too far into irredeemable, IMHO. I’d say the same thing about the kid bit in Kenobi as well (it felt gratuitous).

But I’m sad that this conflicts with the fanedit idea that Anakin wasn’t part of the Temple Massacre. I guess if somebody does this in a ROTS edit they will have to accept the conflict with Kenobi.

I mean, if you’re gonna delete chunks of canon plot material from your edit, you’ve already kinda agreed it’s its own continuity lmao.

Exactly - fanedits shouldn’t be beholden to series continuity. They can pick and chose whatever they like (see: “Rey Nobody” preserved, Chewbacca getting a medal, or Padme surviving ROTS among others).

It’s looking fantastic! I especially like how you straightened out the pylon in the first shot of Vader (which has bugged me for ages).

Also, speaking of sound mixes, will the mono mix insertions (Beru’s voice, “It’s secure,” “Blast it Wedge,” and the exterior cantina music) also return? There’s a new mono mix restoration in beta testing on the 4K77 forum.

There is something quite weird going on with Lucasfilm shows: after TBOB never featuring Boba Fett, this Ben show has still not shown Obi-Wan Kenobi after half its episodes. There is a character being called “kenobi” but he has absolutely nothing to do with the Jedi we saw in Ep 1-6, TCW, CW and Rebels. Really strange.

Also I don’t see Vader either. There is a cosplayer in a decent plastic costume doing weird civilian killing stuff (not really in Vader’s character to do that for basically no reason, unless he really hates asian people but they don’t look like tuskens so maybe not…), so yet no Lord Vader on sight either.

They should have titled it “Star Wars: Reva and Leia adventures”.

This series is so far the best way to ruin the OT and the PT altogether. It’s amazing in a way.

Still 3 to go: let’s hope for something good at some point!

His name? Jedi Master Jorus C’baoth.

Actually, wait. This might be a crazy idea, but what if it was Sifo Dyas, instead?

My idea would be to go for an ancient name, like Ulic Qel-Droma or Freedon Nadd. The reasoning here would be to sell the new threat as the return of a truly ancient anti-hero/villain leading the enemy faction of the ST, an order that Palpatine/Vader never knew about and was behind some events of the PT and OT.

It’s best to do what CatBus does with conforming Special Edition dubs to Despecialized - just make edits to replicate the media it’s synching to and present it like that.

On that dub note, I do hope Adywan keeps all the mono mix bits he added in for the SD version. There’s a new mono mix restoration in beta testing at the 4K77/80/83 forums (MaestroDavros’ production) which might be useful.
