Sorry for teasing you, buddy. You were right.

Accepted.

First time I thought when I saw C3po was damn it Joe, damn it.

It was a good cameo though.

It was a good cameo. I agree.

I didn't realize that it's well established in canon that he was Bale Organa's droid for a long time. So it makes a ton of sense.

Was cool to see some familiar faces (Bail Organa, C3PO, 4Lom, Jango Fett as a clone trooper). I wonder if that will be common for the remaining 4 episodes?

This reverse reference shot to Leia's holo-message to Obi-Wan from A New Hope just makes my heart so happy! :heartbeat:

I know her precociousness is the point and is actually lampshaded in the script but this is a bit much, isn't it? That child just looks and sounds like she's reading off a page most of the time

I’m not seeing peoples issues with the volume at all. It all looks like real sets and locations to me.

The ships in this episode all did look a bit janky. Except the one they escape on at the end.
All the others look like cgi unfinished sketches almost?

I am curious if there were meetings at Disney+ about the timing of this show opening with a classroom of children being shot at.

Never thought of that. That scene did feel a little pointless a bit.
But if you’re right, the master fighting off the troopers (beautiful pure Jedi exciting fight style)
Might have been them making a point too.

I'm not saying they should have changed the show or the release date... just curious if this was something that came up over the last few days

The title of this thread doesn’t match the format of the titles in the rest of this subforum.

There must have been. It was kind of shocking, honestly. They had to realise.

I think if it's true that Reva is one of those kids, it isn't pointless at all. It might end up being essential backstory for her.

Probably my fault anders.

Well herself and the other Jedi guy I can’t remember his name who finds him at nighttime?
They might have both been there.


That was a snag for me.

If that guy lost on tatooine in the dark could find obi wan how come everyone can’t?
Who sent him there how did he know etc?

I need to watch it again but I didn't get the impression that young Jedi know Kenobi was there. It was a coincidence more than a seek and find kinda thing.

I had the same thought, but I am sure if anything was pondered, they likely erred on the side of a teacher protecting kids being a noble thing to portray
