In Revenge of the Sith. Palpatine defeats him, kicks his ass, takes off a limb and launches him out a 200 story window.

It's the right move for a lot of reasons (even the primary one which is clearly to keep people from buying a months subscription and cancelling before paying for a second month).

I miss the days of devouring reviews and articles after each episode. Allowing it to sink in and grow in my bones!

We want to see those elements brought in. Silly to think they won’t to some degree
"To some degree" is a key phrase.

This franchise has a poor record for shoving in fan service to the detriment of story.

- Solo was the most egregious with all the how he got his name, how he got his blaster, how he got his pants bullshit. If it didn't pull you out of the fantasy of Star Wars to have that dude tell Han that his name was Solo b/c he had no family, then you can't possibly give a shit about Star Wars in general.

- Or maybe the birth and protection of the twins which fucked up most of the original series.
- Darth Vader's creation of C-3PO.
- Obi-Wan not know R2D2.
- I mean shit, the prequels basically turned old Obi-Wan into a son-of-a-bitch liar.
- The higher ground line.
- Padme's child molestation.
- Those stupid idiots from the Cantina being on Jedha.

Nah, Star Wars doesn't bat 1,000 when pulling references to cannon into their new stuff. I'm not wrong to be concerned.

If you like it, then watch one episode per week.

I like binging. I'm an adult. I can choose how to watch a TV show for my own damned self.

He’s more machine no than man.

How does kenobi know that
Because he saw his legs and arms get fucking burned off? He’s kept up with the current events of a person that’s sworn to hunt him down and kill him?

And your comparison is incorrect. There actually IS dialogue to support Obi-Wan and Vader not meeting. I was asking if Maul and Obi-Wan have met between TPM or Clone Wars and that episode of Rebels.
Vader was an unknown quantity within even the upper echelons of the empire and imperial fleet staff. Nobody knows he’s Anakin (except thrawn). He’s the emperors hand and answers to none. So there is no current events for obi wan to keep up with. It wasn’t on broadcast news.
Unless kenobi can sense him in the force, as far as kenobi knows, Anakin is dead. Which he can’t cos Vader would sense him back. See the hangar bay in anh

Right there is your door to Ahsoka turning up and telling Kenobi Anakin is Vader and she faced him (rebels) and he’s alive.

This doubles down on obi wan having to protect Luke.


This whole series could be Vader obsessed with hunting down obi wan. He knows he’s out there. He just doesn’t know where. Last place he’d look? Planet Anakin grew up on
If this happened without a meeting between the two, I’d be happy as a pig in shit.

They 100% meet in The Clone Wars. Maul does some devastating shit.

There is 0 indication whatsoever that they met again between that final meeting in TCW and their fight in Rebels.
Thank you for answering. Is there anything in that Rebels episode to indicate they haven’t met since the CW episode? If not, then depending on the timeline, Maul could actually be in this. They need to use him somewhere since after that scene in Solo.

Me too. The binge can be fun, too. But I prefer the weekly pour.

Nothing explicit that I recall but I'd have to look at the exact dialogue. It's IMPLICIT in Maul's obsession. It sure feels like they haven't met since. But again there's a huge time span. If this series is set closer to ROTS than Rebels, then it's certainly possible. But I've also not read the Maul comic, so I'm not sure what concrete canon we have about what he was doing/where he was after Ahsoka defeats him on Mandalore and when we see him again in Solo.

I think this Obi-Wan show takes place around the time of Solo, yeah? So, then it's certainly possible. But it would HAVE to be off of Tattooine. Maul can't know Kenobi is there.

I’d agree. We don’t have to have them meet again. But to have Vader be the threat and Ahsoka turning up to make kenobi aware it’s anakin. And as with maul he can’t tell her why he’s hiding there but she figures it out, and he now knows Vader is looking for him

That story is already far more interesting than obi wan in the desert and sorting out local squabbles between the moisture farmers and protecting them from jabbas henchmen making the rounds for ‘protection money’

Kathleen Kennedy said all the scripts are done but no writers named. Even when it was a film, I don't think we had an author named.

The only director I've heard rumored at all is Ewan himself. Rumors have suggested that part of this deal was for him to direct at least part of the series.

Does the timeline work out for Ahsoka knowing it's Anakin? If this takes place round the time of Solo, then that's a decade or more before ANH which means at least 4 years before Rebels. Which means Ahsoka doesn't know yet, right?
