Looks absolutely amazing. Can't wait. I'm not a Clone Wars Obi Wan fan boy, but it will be great to see Ewan actually get to deliver some decent dialog and show his chops in the role. Getting big Rogue One vibes from some of the color palette and aesthetic choices as well. Very excited.

each time I watch this trailer it gets better and better god damn. the inquisitors look siiiiiick. vader breathing at the end is a clear sign that we get a vader/kenobi rematch.

Am I crazy or did I briefly see Han's blaster? Is what's his name reprising his role as well?

I'll have to watch again to look for that. It would line up that Han and Chewie are there at that point in time. It would be pretty unnecessary though.

I caught that too but I’m assuming that’s just Kenobi trying to fend off foes without igniting his blade and revealing his identity.
I bet he doesn’t even draw his lightsaber til like ep 5 or 6 which will just make everyone on planet earth go nuts as fuck when he does.

Ngl after reading about how Mouse Ears scrapped all of the scripts for Kenobi cause it was “too dark”, wouldn’t allow Darth Maul (even tho Rebels clearly shows it comes down to them), and wouldn’t show Obi Wan looking after Luke (cause Mikey from Swingers wanted to protect his no canon show) I have zero desire to watch Kenobi.
Wake me up when Kathleen Kennedy is out

I don't know if I would have even wanted to see Maul in this show. What would have been Obi-Wan's motivation for abandoning his post of looking after Luke? Why would he care about gang world shit in the galaxy at large? Rebels wrapped their thing up nicely and I like the story we're going to get here (I've read credible leaks, the whole thing is basically spoiled at this point.) My only concern is that a quarter of the screen time is going to be given to the new Inquisitor that they kept showing in the trailer. After a Boba show that was barely about Boba, doing that with Kenobi would be suicide.
We'll get a Maul show eventually. Unfortunately, it will probably be animated. I'd much prefer live action.

I'm good with Maul not being in this. I think they should try to avoid rehashing things from Clone Wars/Rebels too much. I think a Maul origin story or something would be dope, though. Dathomir and the Night Sisters are cool.

Obi Wan will be good. To act like Kennedy has touched anything Star Wars with anything other than a light hand since the sequels is silly. Filoni seems to be leading the way.
I will say that some of the side actors on the shows don't really seem to embody their roles at all. Billy Dee Williams in Empire could have been completely cheesy and out of place, but he fit right in and seemed made for it. Same goes for even bit parts in Jedi like Mon Mothma or Wedge in all three. Rogue One is the perfect example of every actor embodying their roles. Mads had such a small part but he played it with enormous gravitas and purpose.
But in the shows it's really lacking. All of the side characters in Mando and Boba Fett consistently take me out of the immersion factor. As much as I love Amy Sedaris and Olyphant, they are not of that universe. Amy could have been funny without being camp, and Olyphant was just playing a space version of his Justified character, and don't even get me started on all the cyborg-modders, Bill Burr, Carano, etc. Even Dawson seems to be playing herself, the same performance she gives in everything she's been in lately. I can already see the inquisitors, just from the trailer, really overacting and chewing the scenery. It's like if Star Wars were a stage play or something. I like everything that I'm watching in the shows so far, and I'm undoubtedly going to continue consuming the slop like a good little piggy, but I wish all the actors would give the same commitment to character that Pedro Pascal gives yanno?

Star Wars has changed directors / writers during preproduction than any modern franchise and that starts with Kennedy’s bad planning and grasp of a galaxy far far away. Even the original editor of the holy trilogy blamed her

I would actually agree that a lot of the blame should lie with Kennedy. The buck stops with her and too many mistakes have happened on her watch. She also has a habit of announcing things way too fucking early which seemingly never happen or get delayed indefinitely. Rian's trilogy was announced almost five years ago with no updates on it. The High Republic game announced was delayed to 2027. It's ridiculous. I hate that Marvel gets virtually nothing but wins when Star Wars is batting like a .500 and they're both owned by the same company.

Yeah, when I first heard that I thought about that scene in some Metallica doc (I don't think it was SKoM) where the lyrics aren't written yet for whatever song they're demo'ing so Hetfield is just standing in the vocal booth yarling out a wordless melody.

Getting the feeling that the Inquisitor they keep showing and giving lines to will have a whole episode to herself.

Been finishing up Rebels and I like how they fleshed out the inquisitors in that series.
