Obi-Wan Kenobi 1x5 Uncut Reaction!
Added 2022-06-15 18:57:51 +0000 UTCWhat's up, homies! It is time for the PENULTIMATE episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Every time we do one of these shows we're always amazed at how quickly these last couple of episodes creep up on us. Queue up your Disney+ and join us for the reaction and the post conversation (it's a good one). Let us know your thoughts here and, if you haven't done so already, make sure you connect your Discord account and join the conversation happening there as well.
May the Force be with you.

I imagine they included that first scene to hint at it on purpose. So you're always questioning why/how she got to this position.

2022-06-16 17:39:15 +0000 UTCYes, here in Germany no warnings too, now I know why the timecoding was different, I re-synced a few times.

2022-06-16 12:34:23 +0000 UTCThat I fully understand, that's very late. More in-depth reviews, maybe after the finale of the shows, however, would be very much appreciated on my side. That you don't do that directly after the first impression is absolutely o.k.. But wouldn't it be interesting to discuss whether and/or how the perspective of the plotlines etc. may have changed after watching it the second time or in hindsight e.g. one or two weeks later? Maybe in one of your podcasts? Anyway, I will rewatch this and the previous reactions again with joy. Maybe my first take on this one last night was a bit too critical.

2022-06-16 10:37:03 +0000 UTCInteresting, there was no warning in Australia and without the warning it messed up the timing of the video syncs by a couple of seconds. Regardless, loved the episode, the fight with Reva and Vader was so cool. Also love seeing Adam's reactions, they're fun!.

2022-06-16 09:52:32 +0000 UTCI was thinking that Reva was coming off as 1 dimensional as of the first episode, but I am starting to think that just showed that it was all part of the act that I kind of called towards the end of episode 2 and really felt was the case by episode 3 that she was just trying to maneuver herself to get closer to Vader. I sure hope Reva makes it through this series and can pop up elsewhere so Moses can continue this journey with her.

2022-06-16 08:03:28 +0000 UTCOh, man! Hector should've said "I'm going to be the raptor right in front of him... I need you to be the Clever Girl right off to the side." Still, loving these reactions!

2022-06-16 03:46:55 +0000 UTCThis episode brought it! By how it is shown it looks like Vader stabs Reva as a youngling. I am interested how she survived then more than how she most definitely will survive now. I think reva is going to tatooine as she met Owen and knew he was hiding something. Now she knows it’s Vader’s kid. Kenobi is probably going to leave the group to divert Vader away from the refugees.

2022-06-16 02:54:02 +0000 UTCSure. We also don’t spend an hour talking about the shows in the post discussion so there will never really be a nuanced conversation that you are looking for. Especially not at 1 am 😴

2022-06-16 00:59:01 +0000 UTCWell, that's correct, I respect your opinion, but it felt that too many sideline comments were distracting from the actual story, although, don't mind, I still love your reaction, it struck me differently and there were many nuances I thought you were missing, that's all.
Robert von Heeren
2022-06-16 00:52:05 +0000 UTCKind of a strange comment, but, not everyone experiences story the same way. That’s why people have differing options on movies. Your comments reads like, “you didn’t experience the story the way I did, or weren’t moved by it the way I was, therefore your heart wasn’t in it.”

2022-06-16 00:42:42 +0000 UTCGuys, this time it felt a bit that your hearts weren't 100% into it. This ep was so rich and subtle in so many ways, that I would like to make you to rewatch/re-react to it. I don't think you captured the full scope of it. Although, Agustin is still at the heart and essence of it, love you man. I'm so impressed how the writers managed to fill the gap with interesting storylines and twists, I mean and Reva, just wonderful. I have no idea what will happen in the finale, but I'm pretty sure it will be a setup for season 2, so much more to tell. And yes, Hector, NRA is bad, very very bad, I'm 100% with you, but it was distracting in that reaction.
Robert von Heeren
2022-06-16 00:38:55 +0000 UTCI'm interested to see what the emotional state of Obi-Wan will be in if/when he does get in contact with Qui-Gon, that feels like a conversation that would be terrible to have with 10+ years of guilt isolation and no therapists.
Athelgar
2022-06-15 22:00:48 +0000 UTCThe fight with Vader and Reva was really good. It was nice to see a force user actually use the force and not just act like a swordsmen. Vader was so much more focused, calm, and collected which is terrifying.
Myles Away
2022-06-15 20:35:13 +0000 UTCYeah I didn’t see any warnings from the episodes that showed Order 66 either. I didn’t know if it was in the descriptions or actually on the screen
Felicia B
2022-06-15 20:30:12 +0000 UTCI don't think that there will be another confrontation between Obi-Wan and Vader. With Obi-Wan outsmarting Vader in the hangar and the corresponding flashback where he says to Anakin that he will still be a Padawan if he doesn't overcome his urge to prove himself, they created the perfect setup for their meeting in Episode 4 where Vader says "when last we meet I was but the learner".
Matthias Dammes
2022-06-15 20:18:27 +0000 UTCIt seems they're only showing the warnings in the states. I live in Canada and they have not had to warn us about that imagery.
Myles Away
2022-06-15 20:03:47 +0000 UTCReally good episode and I’m glad we finally got confirmation on Reva’s back story. I figured she was one of the younglings but thought she had escaped and blamed Obi Wan. She does, but having Vader be her main target was not something I saw coming right away. I’m so curious how it’s going to turn out for the finale. And if they do a season 2, I will be super happy. Cause having more Obi is never a bad thing. I particularly liked the training session flashbacks that we got. And as Hector said, they is a fantastic job with the de-aging. Btw loved the LOTR and X-men references. Didn’t see it before but definitely do now!
Felicia B
2022-06-15 19:51:37 +0000 UTCMan as someone who is slowly getting into Star Wars for the first time, binged all the movies/shows. This episode is a real tear jerker and I was not expecting the position they went on this episode. Well worth the watch and I look forward to the future.
