With An 'Obi-Wan Kenobi' Star Wars Movie In The Works, Only One Thing Matters
https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2017/08/18/with-an-obi-wan-kenobi-star-wars-movie-in-the-works-only-one-thing-matters/#4c7e3b9d643f
The weird thing though is that they ended the prequel with him just walking away on Tatooine. So wtf has he been doing for 20 years? Just living life as a hermit on Tatooine?
Possibly, the only real reference they make before he's introduced in ANH is Uncle Owen calling him a crazy old man.
Maybe we'll get a two hour movie of him practicing his chip shot from the sand dunes.
He has a comic out now that is canon. He also appears in Star Wars Rebels, also canon.0 -

That's awesome!
It is but it would be loads cooler if it wasn't Darth Maul
What's wrong with Maul? Outside of everything?
He literally had no lines. He's just bad for the sake of being bad.
And then he died.
He was awesome and poorly used1 -

ETA: Although I just googled and apparently he survived his injuries? But then he's just gone, so I thought it was a waste. Everyone was all hyped and then *kitten* all happened.
He did not die. He actually lives and is in a bunch of the Star Wars TV shows, where Obi Wan finally kills him in Star Wars Rebels.1 -

Actually in cannon he survives...
I thought he was freaking awesome and made that movie watchable...
Coolest character in the prequels...1 -

GET OUT OF MY SAFE SPACE
Calm down. It's me we're talking about here, remember? C'mon, bring it in, let's hug it out, Counselor Troi. lol
She was the worst actress on the whole show.
I agree until Crusher walks on screen. Speaking of which did the two ever share dialogue?0 -

Grievous sucks. Worse use of four arms ever.1 -

No point in him searching for the Emperor because he knows he can not kill Sideous, since he is not the chosen one. He also knows that he can not kill Vader because then there will be no chosen one to stop Sideous either...
The story will probably be centered around his learning to communicate with Qui Gon, discovering that Anakin is alive and Darth Vader and realizing that Vader is in fact the chosen one and eventually revealing to the audience, Yoda and his belief that the only thing strong enough to bring Vader back from the dark side to defeat Sideous is his love as a father, Luke and or Lieh....
Sorry I feel like I just spoiled the whole thing... Lol
Ummmm..... No, did you not see Star Wars Revenge of the Sith? Obi Wan and Yoda both know Vader is Anakin. In the comic and TV shows he is quite active. There is no telling what direction they want to go. He helps out a lot of locals as well as keeping an eye on Luke.0 -
Just make it like the movie "nebraska" some old dude on a roadtrip across tattooine, doesnt have to be an action movie1

At some point wasn't he the leader of the Deathwatch as well?(not sure if cannon) I'm really going to have to sit down one weekend and binge watch Star Wars Rebels.1 -

I don't think so, but I'm not positive. He had a better role in Clone Wars.0 -

I went back and found it, thought I'd remembered reading about it when I was on a Mandalorian kick. It was after he created the Shadow Collective but I don't think it was a very long leadership role before he was captured by Darth Sidious.0 -

Okay so they find out what Darth Vader becomes, they don't actually see him as machine yet0 -

Is this the comic series that you're talking about cee? I haven't read any of the comics in years and I honestly don't know what's cannon and what's not now that Disney is the owner.
