Bit surprised they had Reva fully intending to go through with torturing Leia in that chair. Not very nice.

Also, was it just me or did they sort of write into the story that Reva was the one that gave Darth Vader the idea to later hide a homing beacon in the Millennium Falcon so it would lead to the rebel base in A New Hope?

I get turned around on the timeline often enough that I just kind of took it as a ripoff of an old idea by the writers. But it didn't occur to me to consider it a throughput of sorts. I miss most of that stuff, though. Because again - I'm still confused by whiffle bat sabers and the fact that they don't have a cross guard?. Shouldn't they have one of those? Or wouldn't LOTS of these guys have their hands chopped off? {shrug} Space Wizards. I'll leave the physics and the Easter eggs to Clay.

the important thing about star wars science is that they never really try to explain it
like none of it at all so they can do whatever they want which is why everyone hates that midichlorians nonsense so much that might be the only example of them trying to get all star trek on us

by the way, reva doesnt need a redemption arc because she's very plainly a double agent
she's not evil when have you ever seen her do anything evil, other than being kinda mean? she didn't nuke that speeder until the fifth brother basically made her she's a rogue ex-padawan trying to make a difference and is deep, deep undercover i think the final two episodes are gonna be LIT

I noticed it last night as well and it had me scratching my head a bit. But, whatever, at least we have gotten to the point in the show where he is actually using it.

So I enjoyed it. I too was a bit taken out of it by Obi-Wan hacking away at dudes, but I did enjoy him finding his sealegs and thrashing them later on. I won't lie, I was dorking out.
I thought pre-teen Leia was good in this one. Particularly with Reva, but also in the shoot out. She was believable and added to the story. I also don't hate Reva as much as most. It's not perfect and it is none too deep, but I'm having a good time. |

I guess this might be a stupid question but here it goes.
I was under the impression from A New Hope that Leia didn't really know Obi-Wan other then through name. How are they going to fix this? Or am I erroneous? And to build on that if Obi-Wan is going to put himself in grave danger rescuing Leia not once, but twice, isn't that going to send off signals to Darth Vader the importance of Leia? Fill me in folks. I am enjoying this show. Episode 4 having Obi-Wan rediscover some of his Jedi skills was cool. |

If I'm 10 years old and 20 odd years later after not having spoken w/ a person who helped me so many years ago, I may have foggy enough memories of the whole thing to begin that conversation more formally before getting a little less informal as it progressed.
I mean yeah, at first blush I would say she sounds like someone in her message that never met Obi Wan. But that doesn't HAVE to be the only reading of it either.

if you ask me the way Carrie said "Ben KENOBI!?" in ANH definitely reads as having met him 10 years earlier
