Speaks alot when everyone has been so let down and disappointed for the last 4 years that they can be elated over a new product that’s “fine”. This still isn’t going to save this franchise. I’m interested to see the numbers of viewers for this series…I imagine the interest is extremely low. At my job there are about 4 casual SW fans and they either haven’t heard of this…didn’t know it was out…didn’t know what it was about…or just weren’t interested. Disney plus just increased it’s monthly rate, pretty hard to hook people now with just “another SW tv show”. 🤷‍♂️

Rather than worry or even think about viewing figures, why don’t you just watch it for yourself (or don’t). Rather than be concerned with what the wider world is or isn’t enjoying, experience it for yourself, and if you enjoy it, good for you, if you don’t then that’s fine too.

I can’t recommend this version enough, it has become my staple go to for a Friends fix. The changing in screen ratio doesn’t bother me and after a while you don’t even notice it.

It’s a great collection and so grateful for all the work you’ve put into this!

The finale was again confusing if you consider the main characters (the twins and Smilo Ren). They are not consistent and have unclear motivations, making them uninteresting.

And then you have poorly explained moments like Sol targeting Mae’s ship and the Basil sabotaging Sol’s ship. Both actions are unclear.

Only Sol had a fully developed story in my view, and that makes for a very underwhelming series.

Sol (as has been shown throughout the series) acts on impulse and emotion (not very good for a Jedi), but with Mae escaping, he didn’t want to risk Mae getting to Osha before him, as she obviously knew the truth at this point. So in an act of impulse, he was going to try and shoot Mae to stop her from getting to Osha.

Basil sabotaging the ship was to save Mae.

I guess I’ll just ask elsewhere… figured I’d maybe get some suggestions here, but not to worry.

I’m curious, which cartoons are you upscaling?

I upscaled the Ninja Turtles 2003 Series into 720p with pretty decent results.

I use Topaz Video AI, it takes a bit of tinkering with it to get the ideal results, and can take a bit of time. But it’s given me some good results.

(it’s also a bit pricey, but definitely worth it)

I hope you understand a little more why it irked me. But in the end it does not matter, it is just something that stood out in the documentary, giving an indication (to me) this was a more a Prequel story: in tone, style, execution, and also overall underwhelming quality: than an actual bridge, or genuine half way point story between the two trilogies.

I do, thank you for clearing that up. It’s refreshing to have actual conversations about these things, rather than it dissolving into just aggressive name calling etc. as seems to be the norm on some platforms.

I understand where you’re coming from. Though with the exception of some of the characters (i.e. Obi Wan and Bail Organa) I thought it bridged the setting quite well. There were “prequelly tones/settings” but the inclusion of Storm Troopers pulled it a litte bit into the OT territory. But again, that is just my viewing of it.

It did irk me when director Deborah Chow said this about Ewan - “He to me, is Obi Wan”, in the “Obi Wan Kenobi: a Jedi’s Return” documentary, with an emphasis on “is”.

I don’t know why it should irk you, it’s her opinion, quite clearly she says “He to me”… meaning, in her opinion. That doesn’t mean it’s right or it’s wrong. She’s entitled to feel like that. To a certain generation, yes Ewan McGregor is their Obi Wan. In the same respect that everyone has their favourite Bond. There’s no right or wrong answer to it as it’s all subjective.
