  It's like the all things are happening today.
• 1:02
  It's like all of its going on at once.
• 1:05
  It's been a very, it's amazing stressful day.
• 1:09
  It's been a lot today because we weren't planning on doing this
• 1:13
  obviously because we didn't know a trailer was coming out.
• 1:15
  But thank you Disney for dropping yet another Masterpiece
• 1:19
  but Before we get into that first off, May the fourth be
• 1:23

  Yes. It's just happens to be May the

  the reaction because oh my God again Lauren and I have not

  talked about we've said like two or three things.
• 4:21
  Yeah we're saved it all for this and my body is ready so well.
• 4:28
  And what I did again, we both wake up out of a sound sleep to
• 4:32
  this, emergency like crazy. Oh my God, I was just, I know I
• 4:37
  hit the ground running this morning.
• 4:40
  Totally totally. And it's been a crazy day just
• 4:43
  like, May the fourth stuff. Yeah, it's because our patreon
• 4:46
  stuff and trying to absorb everything that we saw.
• 4:51
  Oh my God, this trailer. We saw a lot of the same things
• 4:55
  we saw in the first trailer but some key shit.
• 4:58
  We did not see ya in the first trailer.
• 5:00
  Hmm. And I want to talk about those
• 5:02
  specifically. So what did you think?
• 5:04
  First Impressions first impression was that it looks
• 5:07
  fucking good, it looks really tight and like the Ting seems
• 5:12
  really good, the script. I mean, not that I have anything
• 5:15
  to go on, but just the Snippets. They've given us gives me a lot
• 5:19
  of hope that this is going to really be excellent.
• 5:21
  If this is the stuff they're choosing and allowing us to see
• 5:25
  this early prior to the show, being released.
• 5:28
  That's a really good indicator. Yeah.
• 5:29
  Because this stuff's really good.
• 5:32
  Yeah. Right.
• 5:33
  So they're saving the really, really good stuff for the actual
• 5:36
  show. Hopefully, I hopefully go
• 5:38
  because, you know, sometimes, you know, previews and trailers
• 5:41
  full Give the whole thing away. And this doesn't seem to be that
• 5:45
  they seem to be playing it very close to the vest, even though
• 5:48
  they're showing us little things here and there, it's still, it's
• 5:50
  not a lot. We're seeing the same kind of
• 5:55
  situations, the same scenery, the city Planet, obviously,
• 5:59
  Tatooine the place, what the place, where the inquisitors
• 6:03
  are? The inquisitors palace?
• 6:05
  Yeah, the palace. And so they're keeping that
• 6:09
  limited, which I do appreciate. I don't want to see it all.
• 6:11
  All Mmm. Yeah.
• 6:12
  Saying I wanted to be a mystery but my God, they gave us some
• 6:16
  dialogue. In this one from Obi-Wan / Yuan.
• 6:19
  Was it, was he crazy to hear him speak?
• 6:22
  And in Obi-Wan, yes, it was. Because in the, the other
• 6:25
  whatever we got the teaser previously, he just said, you
• 6:29
  know, with lost. And he had yes, this was very
• 6:33
  much. Like, in character, when he said
• 6:35
  20, and when the time comes, the boy, must be trained or
• 6:39
  whatever. It was like, yeah.
• 6:40
  That was very like Voice. You know.
• 6:43
  Yes and it was such a blast from the past I'm getting chills.
• 6:47
  Again. I've had like like massive
• 6:51
  Goosebumps all day. Every time I've seen this
• 6:54
  trailer and I've watched it like probably no less than seven
• 6:56
  times at this point. Yes, I'm obsessed.
• 6:58
  Well, we're taking notes, there's an excuse.
• 7:00
  Yes, we're we had to come prepared yank wink.
• 7:04
  So we had to watch it a thousand times, wink wink.
• 7:09
  But you're right though, it was Kenobi's Voice.
• 7:12
  It was, it was back to what we know and of course we got to see
• 7:16
  his portrait on the wanted ad. The wanted poster of him from
• 7:20
  Revenge of the Sith. I know I was going to say I love
• 7:23
  that. It's like a promo picture.
• 7:25
  Exactly, this like we've seen this used in meme.
• 7:29
  It's very potent. This portrait like I translated
• 7:33
  the portrait or the absolutely the portrait.
• 7:35
  I translated the wanted poster from the the Earth AI police.
• 7:41
  It just says wanted Obi-Wan Kenobi, offenses, high treason
• 7:46
  Bounty, upon capture, interesting?
• 7:48
  Yeah, high treason. Yeah, I was just sitting here
• 7:51
  thinking really okay Vader, right?
• 7:56
  We talk about high treason but, you know, he wasn't the one who
• 7:59
  tried to kill Palpatine. No, no.
• 8:03
  But I guess cutting. Anakin's legs and arm off and
• 8:07
  all that was high treason. Yeah, it's going to bring the
• 8:10
  drama and there's To be pain because as you mentioned and
• 8:13
  probably my well my second favorite line in the trailer is.
• 8:18
  When Owen says to him like you trained his father.
• 8:22
  Oh, dang God. This is the pain.
• 8:26
  We've been wanting but I'm not ready.
• 8:29
  I know he's kind of right, though.
• 8:31
  Like if he wants to protect Luke looking at it from Owens point
• 8:35
  of view of be kind of like I'm not so sure.
• 8:37
  I what you taking care of this boy or training.
• 8:39
  This boy you kind of didn't A great job.
• 8:42
  Now that his dad is like an evil Sith lord, it's true, but that
• 8:47
  doesn't make it any less painful.
• 8:49
  But God, I'm here for it. I love, I am the pain thousand
• 8:53
  percent here for. This is what I want.
• 8:55
  That little shot. They showed of like the taken
• 8:59
  aback, that probably one was like.
• 9:02
  Can you imagine what he's feeling?
• 9:03
  It's not like he doesn't know and doesn't think about it
• 9:06
  constantly. Exactly, you know, unnecessary.
• 9:11
  Come on. Oh, and I have my words with.
• 9:14
  I'll have my words with Owen eventually.
• 9:16
  But if he's gonna bring the pain that we asked for, from Kenobi,
• 9:20
  I'm here for free pass. Hmm, hands up, I want to?
• 9:25
  Yeah, I'm here for this. Okay.
• 9:28
  My favorite thing, yes, that I love this fucking shit over.
• 9:33
  Yes. Op1, kicking someone's ass with
• 9:36
  just his bare hands and no lightsaber.
• 9:40
  Yes, yes, I literally like if this is the only snippet I ever
• 9:45
  get my whole life and it's just in this trailer I literally can
• 9:48
  die happy now. That's all I ever wanted really
• 9:52
  it is so good it's so good with the Blaster and the man handling
• 9:56
  and the body slamming. Yes and we know Kenobi's capable
• 10:00
  of this. We've seen him do it a thousand
• 10:02
  times especially in the Clone Wars I mean yeah I Kasich Ali
• 10:05
  the last all the time, the Clone War.
• 10:07
  So the fact that they're bringing it in, this is great,
• 10:10
  this is great. Eight.
• 10:12
  I'm very excited and we see him shooting a blaster which you
• 10:14
  almost never. See, never, I love it.
• 10:17
  I'm very excited I just because okay having the force and all
• 10:21
  that it's like yes he's very powerful but like this requires
• 10:25
  him to not rely on that so much and to prove that he's capable
• 10:29
  of like still being formidable without his lightsaber, without
• 10:34
  the force without the Jedi. And I'm very excited to see how
• 10:37
  they'll portray that. Because in one of the shots were
• 10:40
  he's firing the Blaster and Out the desert.
• 10:42
  There's like a dead Stormtrooper behind him.
• 10:45
  It is not came. The other guy unconscious and
• 10:47
  I'm just like, yes. Am I going to get to see?
• 10:50
  Obi-Wan, take out a whole transport of Stormtroopers?
• 10:54
  I hope so. I was sick.
• 10:55
  Bastard. And I want it.
• 10:58
  You're not sick. This is why we're friends truly
• 11:03
  though. It's gonna be amazing.
• 11:05
  I want to know it's and we know like you said, let we've seen
• 11:09
  you and he's training for Or it? So yes.
• 11:13
  And what is it going to be like, for Obi-Wan Kenobi to restrain
• 11:18
  his use of the force to just literally hold back without
• 11:22
  holding back like so he's he's fighting.
• 11:24
  He's physically in it and yet he has to restrain such a strong
• 11:28
  and powerful and overwhelming part of him.
• 11:30
  That's been with him for how long?
• 11:32
  Yeah. That's an amazing point out.
• 11:34
  That has to be. That has to be tough.
• 11:36
  Yeah, I love that kind of conflict, though.
• 11:39
  Oh, me too. So good.
• 11:44
  This is the pain. I subscribe to in our five
• 11:47
  things we wanted. I think we both said, pain,
• 11:49
  crying and crying and being distraught, and we didn't mean
• 11:53
  ourselves. That's just a byproduct that we
• 11:55
  met. Yeah, Obi-Wan.
• 11:56
  We're the collateral damage of this shape.
• 11:59
  Yes. Yes.
• 12:01
  Body, slam us and tosses in the pile with Stormtroopers Obi-Wan,
• 12:05
  please emotional body slamming everywhere, which on a side
• 12:10
  note, For the trailer came out earlier this week.
• 12:13
  The rating of the show was discovered to be tv-14.
• 12:18
  Oh really? I didn't even know that.
• 12:20
  A lot of people seemed upset by this.
• 12:23
  And here's the thing, I think you can get the story, a good
• 12:27
  story, a worthwhile story across, and not have to use
• 12:31
  anything that goes over that rating.
• 12:33
  Yeah. You know what I mean?
• 12:34
  Really, mm-hmm. But, do you recall what the
• 12:36
  rating was of Rogue one? I don't actually I can look it
• 12:41
  up really quickly because I was worried that tv-14 wouldn't
• 12:46
  involve Vader slashing someone in half.
• 12:51
  That's my only worry. You're not gonna get get your
• 12:55
  Slaughter singing that's all I wanted.
• 12:57
  Really do you 13? I think.
• 13:00
  Okay so 1413 yeah it's around the same.
• 13:04
  We could still we could still get Vader, slashing someone in
• 13:07
  half. Yeah it's because I think that
• 13:09
  rating part of it has to do with like there's no blood.
• 13:14
  Right? So like true I was watching one
• 13:15
  of the Narnia movies the other day and they're like slashing
• 13:18
  people stabbing people. There's no blood at all.
• 13:21
  It's like very PG-13 and I think that's part of it.
• 13:25
  And then there's like, certain rules to about.
• 13:26
  Like, if you have a gun, it can't be pointed.
• 13:28
  Directly down the camera lens and stuff like that.
• 13:32
  So correct. Yes.
• 13:33
  Or can't like be pointed. Aunt, like, like I know the
• 13:36
  Batman animated series, they could never have a gun.
• 13:38
  That was visibly pointed at a human or something.
• 13:42
  It's like, you can see them point the gun, but not at the
• 13:44
  person, the person had to be like, off camera or something
• 13:47
  like that. So, basically, like what we saw
• 13:49
  Obi-Wan using a blaster, we I know who he's shooting at.
• 13:52
  It's implied. Yeah.
• 13:53
  It's not directly at the camera so it falls in line with.
• 13:56
  Yeah, it really. We see them shoot people.
• 13:59
  In Rogue one, there's just something like, oh yeah, blood
• 14:02
  spraying out or anything. Yeah.
• 14:03
  No. Yeah, I think Clone Wars is kind
• 14:06
  of in that rating. I think the TV show Clone Wars
• 14:09
  is in that rating. I'm sorry.
• 14:11
  How many people got stabbed in the back in Clone Wars?
• 14:15
  There was no blood, so, it's it passed.
• 14:18
  Anyway, I'm not worried about Kenobi, having a TV rated 14.
• 14:23
  Yeah, I think they can still, I mean, I bet both book of Boba
• 14:28
  Fett, and Mandalorian were similar ratings, and they killed
• 14:31
  fight scenes. They kill the warehouse if
• 14:33
  people in a Meatpacking Factory. So, you know, and we don't know
• 14:39
  what happened to Max Rebo. He's still missing and he's
• 14:42
  assumed dead by that restaurant. Can't even get blown up.
• 14:45
  I'm still upset by this. That we don't know is
• 14:48
  Whereabouts after me just learning his name after all
• 14:50
  these years. All right.
• 14:52
  P. Max Rebo.
• 14:53
  Maybe not though, Max maybe not. We don't know.
• 14:56
  He lives forever. Maybe they'll release.
• 14:58
  You know like a tribute album. Oh my god, when that in
• 15:06
  memoriam. Yeah.
• 15:07
  Max Rebo this year, the ask is he is yeah, yes it's all the
• 15:13
  people at the Cantina and Max Rebo.
• 15:15
  Oh my God, I'm dying show money. Okay.
• 15:19
  Super long tangent there but who cares?
• 15:21
  I love it though. It's applicable.
• 15:24
  We talked about TV ratings. Yeah, it applies but since I
• 15:29
  mentioned Vader, I was going to say.
• 15:31
  Okay here comes the chills again because I am loving The
• 15:35
  Inquisitor woman that we keep seeing Levi us is that her name.
• 15:40
  Reva Reva. I'm assuming it's Reva but I'm
• 15:43
  guessing it's Riva but her screaming at Obi-Wan.
• 15:47
  Yes. Chills as we get Snippets of
• 15:51
  Anakin's arm. I'm sorry.
• 15:53
  Excuse me, Darth Vader's metal arm, getting put on his placket
• 15:57
  on his chest, the breathing. I'm getting chills talking about
• 16:00
  it like oh, oh em gee. And then the look on Obi-Wan's
• 16:05
  face as they like laid over the breathing of Darth Vader.
• 16:08
  Perfect. Yeah fraction.
• 16:10
  But her screaming was so impactful.
• 16:12
  Yeah, it's so easy to sound cheap or like insincere when
• 16:17
  you're screaming, it's Hard to sound sincere, and I think she,
• 16:21
  like, gave me chills. It's so good.
• 16:23
  Yeah, it's so good. I'm really looking forward to
• 16:25
  her character. I think she's going to be
• 16:27
  incredibly effective. I love everything that I've seen
• 16:30
  so far. Like, her vibe everything her
• 16:32
  costumes. Yeah, I just Hashem.
• 16:35
  If you zoom in on her pants, her pants are amazing.
• 16:37
  I did, I did you ask ourselves are amazing.
• 16:42
  They look comfortable. I was there.
• 16:44
  I was like, they kind of look like some workout leggings.
• 16:46
  I have that look. They're like Made to look like
• 16:48
  motorcycle pants. So green, if you're on the hunt
• 16:52
  for Obi-Wan and you are striking out and you will continue to
• 16:55
  strike out because we know he never gets found.
• 16:57
  I mean hello. You got to wear something
• 16:59
  comfortable part of me had a question.
• 17:02
  I wonder if he fakes his own death at some point since, right
• 17:06
  now, they're very aware that he's still out there.
• 17:09
  That's an interesting thought. Maybe to get them off his Trail.
• 17:12
  At the end of this series or whatever they're gonna like fake
• 17:15
  is dead. Like he'll die in an explosion
• 17:17
  or something. But Never find the body,
• 17:19
  something like that. I don't know.
• 17:20
  I wondered that's very interesting.
• 17:22
  I never thought of that because the inquisitors make obviously
• 17:26
  because it's made in a different order and A New Hope came first
• 17:29
  but like there's no inquisitors in the original trilogy.
• 17:32
  So we assume what that they're not being used anymore or well.
• 17:37
  I think they get we do see some more action of them in Rebels
• 17:41
  and I think a few get taken out that the grand Inquisitor.
• 17:44
  Yeah. But then like by the time we get
• 17:46
  to Luke Skywalker, Han Oh oh, Princess Leia.
• 17:49
  Like, we don't really see or hear of inquisitors anymore.
• 17:52
  I think they get taken out. I know a soul could takes out
• 17:54
  one because she's a fucking bad as I want to see a shoka in this
• 17:57
  show. Can we get some Ahsoka in the
• 18:00
  show? Please just a little, just a
• 18:03
  little, we have to, we didn't put that on our list.
• 18:06
  We didn't. Well, I guess I kinda did when I
• 18:08
  said Clone Wars flashbacks. But I, honestly, I really love
• 18:11
  it. If we got current day Ahsoka
• 18:13
  with Rosario Dawson, we did kind of mention Ahsoka as we were
• 18:17
  discussing. Sing it but it wasn't one of our
• 18:19
  top things. You said Clone Wars flashbacks
• 18:21
  and definitely like, because we talked about Cassie and right
• 18:24
  being like showing up and Ahsoka possibly selling showing up.
• 18:27
  So, anyway, that's a lot of pain and drama that maybe is saved
• 18:31
  for Season 2, Season 3. If we get, did you notice that
• 18:33
  they called it a six-part event event?
• 18:37
  Yeah, well event. I wonder if you haven't decided
• 18:40
  if they're gonna do a sequel or I've sequel of season 2 or maybe
• 18:44
  they know that they're not going to do season 2.
• 18:47
  I've heard that you and said he was open to doing another
• 18:50
  season. It's the biggest hyped show yet.
• 18:53
  It's possibly the like biggest Star Wars event quote-unquote
• 18:58
  since maybe force awakens because everyone, which is,
• 19:01
  yeah. Oh my God, a new Trilogy.
• 19:03
  What? And now it's just like now, just
• 19:05
  give us the characters, we like and don't kill them off.
• 19:10
  Exactly. The Phantom has come together
• 19:12
  over Cano because, you know, there are split factions of this
• 19:15
  fandom but they all came together.
• 19:18
  The car over the Kenobi, trailers that have come out.
• 19:20
  So, yeah, everyone's super psyched for this.
• 19:23
  Obviously, we are, I'm sitting here with goosebumps still.
• 19:27
  Yeah, we didn't talk about the metal arm enough.
• 19:29
  I was just going to say, we need to go back to talking about
• 19:31
  Vader because the way they edit it.
• 19:33
  All that together was so effective, like the
• 19:37
  cross-cutting between him and The Inquisitor and then having
• 19:41
  OB ones face there at the end. And it's like, either, it's that
• 19:44
  moment where they meet in the street way, or whatever and he
• 19:47
  can. Like feel Feel the presence
• 19:48
  before he even sees Vader or maybe he's even on the other
• 19:53
  side of the Galaxy and he can feel it because it's like a
• 19:55
  turtle. Mm yeah that'd be cool.
• 19:57
  I'm okay with it either way or he just hears the breathing and
• 20:01
  knows and feels him. Yeah which is the way we all
• 20:04
  experience fader, right? You hear his breathing coming?
• 20:07
  I mean I just love it. I love it.
• 20:12
  Did you happen to slow down the trailer and see Vader's torso
• 20:16
  that is fucked. Up?
• 20:18
  No, but I did. I looked at the the arm but not
• 20:22
  yet within one and door. So no is the arm and the Torso
• 20:26
  fucked up. Yeah, I love that.
• 20:28
  I love it too, because it's love it.
• 20:30
  It's true to the character to the story and like we don't need
• 20:35
  that dumbed down for us. We watched him catch on fire and
• 20:39
  burn in a lava lake. So, like just because it's like
• 20:43
  a kid TV show or whatever, which I don't think this is a kid TV
• 20:46
  show, but I think that they're trying Trying to like make the
• 20:49
  rating more like. So the whole family can watch it
• 20:51
  because it's Star Wars is for kids, even though it's not,
• 20:54
  they're gonna have to explain some shit.
• 20:55
  There's some parents out there, they're gonna have to explain
• 20:57
  some shit because remember, when Revenge of the Sith came out,
• 21:00
  George Lucas said, this is not for kids, like if you bring
• 21:03
  little children, the ending will upset them like it is not a kids
• 21:06
  movie. So, I know people and Mark
• 21:09
  Hamill says this all the time that it's for kids, it's not for
• 21:12
  kids. Let's a lot of it is not.
• 21:15
  Yeah, the vast majority of it is not And even the humor, like I
• 21:20
  had a whole different appreciation for the humor
• 21:22
  especially in like a new hope. Once I was an adult.
• 21:25
  It was even funnier than like kind of understood it properly.
• 21:29
  Yeah. You know, as a kid, you like the
• 21:31
  excitement but as an adult, you know, this is the best
• 21:34
  storytelling I've ever seen in my life.
• 21:37
  Seriously, seriously, though, did you notice that the little
• 21:40
  swipe over, the Disney logo was read this time?
• 21:43
  Yes, I did. Notice that nice touch Disney
• 21:46
  because the first one was blue. This one was read.
• 21:49
  I Love It. I put those great little touch.
• 21:51
  Yes, is it is it Vader's? Or is it all the inquisitors or
• 21:54
  is it all all of the above? My first thought was Vader and
• 21:57
  then I was like, oh yeah. Could be the inquisitors because
• 21:59
  it could be all of them. So are all the inquisitors X
• 22:02
  Jedi, do you know still, don't know.
• 22:05
  Let me look in a similar. Vein to how Skywalker had
• 22:08
  fallen. The inquisitors were all former
• 22:10
  Jedi that had fallen to the dark side and pledged themselves to
• 22:13
  Palpatine. Under Vader's, command The
• 22:15
  Inquisitor search the Galaxy to destroy all.
• 22:18
  That I many inquisitors joined the dark side due to torture or
• 22:22
  corruption. Yeah.
• 22:23
  That I remember reading that someone was tortured until they
• 22:26
  basically that's fine. That's a great way to form a
• 22:30
  bond with somebody. Yeah, little Stockholm syndrome.
• 22:35
  I liked that they gave Kumail. We loved him.
• 22:38
  He was in the river. Like a fraction of a second.
• 22:41
  Well, I did see theories of people saying he was going to be
• 22:44
  a voice of a Droid so I think this dispels that theory, I
• 22:48
  wonder if they did that to dispel the theory because people
• 22:50
  are like, we hope he's in it physically and not just the
• 22:53
  voice of a Droid, you know, because it didn't say who is
• 22:56
  character was or anything when they.
• 22:57
  Okay, so he's actually a physical actor and I'm looking
• 23:00
  forward to. It was so sweet.
• 23:02
  He tweeted today, on May the 4th that it felt real and he said,
• 23:06
  I'm in Star Wars and it's like a dream come.
• 23:09
  That is probably. This is so cool.
• 23:12
  I'm so excited for all these people who are super fans that
• 23:15
  got to be a part of it, you know what I mean, right?
• 23:17
  And There's, it must be so nice. So exciting.
• 23:22
  Yeah, he still doesn't have a character listed.
• 23:24
  There's actually a few actors that don't have character names
• 23:27
  under them still but like yeah, like we said, he's physically
• 23:30
  there. I was like for one second I was
• 23:31
  like who is that my hand deposit?
• 23:34
  And I was like oh they're always also like it's not a Droid but
• 23:38
  it's like I don't think it's a Droid but I pause that.
• 23:41
  There's a moment near the end of the trailer where there's like
• 23:44
  some giant armored humanoid fighting.
• 23:48
  Stormtroopers and I pause the first thing.
• 23:49
  It had this big like full snouted like mask helmet.
• 23:54
  Where was this? It's near the end.
• 23:57
  It's like of this trailer. Yeah.
• 23:59
  So it looks like there's like a shootout and some sort of like
• 24:02
  Subterranean base or something. I don't know.
• 24:05
  There's Stormtroopers there and then there's this one character
• 24:08
  that's holding a blaster out in like shoots a bunch of
• 24:10
  Stormtroopers. It's crazy.
• 24:12
  And I pause it for a second and it's like you can't tell who it
• 24:15
  is. It could be anybody in that
• 24:17
  suit. I don't think.
• 24:18
  It's a Droid like I think is a person in a suit.
• 24:20
  It's at like a minute, almost exactly a minute.
• 24:23
  Oh, I see, he's got like, two little small eyes.
• 24:26
  I don't know what that is. What's I wish you could
• 24:29
  interpret the, our A bash on his chest.
• 24:32
  He has something on his back to, he's got a number one on his
• 24:35
  back and then like some sort of rubbish that I can't know.
• 24:39
  I might not even be Arabic. It was something I didn't really
• 24:41
  recognize like, on his back. So I and I wonder what this
• 24:45
  location is like, it seems like it's Underground.
• 24:48
  And of maybe that is a Droid. It's hard to tell because it's
• 24:51
  like made to look like, not Droid, not human.
• 24:54
  It's, I know I'm sure they're being misleading on purpose, but
• 24:58
  it made me wonder if this was like one of those cloning
• 25:00
  facilities that you see in Mandalorian.
• 25:03
  Was he too. Yeah, I don't know.
• 25:05
  Either way it's going to tie in somehow I mean it's this is all
• 25:09
  just like wild speculation because we obviously don't know
• 25:11
  what any of this stuff is but I just I just happened to notice
• 25:14
  that. I thought it was a really
• 25:15
  strange interesting looking character menu.
• 25:18
  You went through this slower than me.
• 25:19
  I usually go second by second by second by second.
• 25:22
  Oh no, I didn't. I mean, I didn't even I just
• 25:24
  wanted to see what this was because like, it caught my eyes.
• 25:28
  So I only pause honestly in a few spots just to like look at
• 25:31
  the background to just see if there's anything hidden in the
• 25:35
  background of some of the shots, but I didn't really pick up on
• 25:37
  anything. But also my observation skills
• 25:40
  are a little taxed right now. I'm kind of mentally fried.
• 25:43
  Oh it's been a long day and we said yeah so the arm they twist
• 25:47
  onto Vader is the hand that he grasped.
• 25:50
  He clasped with Padme at their wedding.
• 25:54
  Oh, no, that's sad. When he lost the like his
• 25:58
  original piece will say the Dooku from his moved.
• 26:03
  Yeah. His deck is Jedi days which is
• 26:07
  really sad and terrible and I love it.
• 26:11
  I think the whole thing with Vader's pieces being assembled,
• 26:15
  for lack of a better term is great, because we Get enough and
• 26:18
  haven't gotten enough of what he went through every day to live,
• 26:23
  right? Yeah.
• 26:24
  The closest we've come is Rogue one is the like most we've
• 26:28
  really seen. Yeah, a takes his helmet off
• 26:31
  like once, and we see him from the back, right?
• 26:33
  And he's in the back de. Those are like the two times,
• 26:36
  right? He's actually, like, in the
• 26:37
  tank, in Rogue one, right? Don't we see it in there?
• 26:40
  Just fucking amazing. I love that.
• 26:44
  So if we get to see him like get put together, Sure, I don't know
• 26:48
  if he's meditating, or he's in a tank, or he's got whatever it
• 26:52
  is, I'm here for it, 100% here for it because that's the kind
• 26:55
  of story building character background stuff that adds to it
• 26:59
  without being like gratuitous. Yeah, for sure, these are things
• 27:03
  we want to see with Vader because he's a mystery.
• 27:06
  I love what you're saying, I really think that's true.
• 27:09
  That Vader. Deserves a little alike.
• 27:12
  I think a lot of people would be interested to see what he goes
• 27:15
  through on a daily basis. Even the tiny If it's we've
• 27:18
  gotten people have gone like crazy about it.
• 27:20
  Yeah, that's all you need. You don't have to show the full
• 27:22
  body. A little mystery is good.
• 27:25
  A little bit of a snippet here, a snippet there, and a little
• 27:28
  bit of insight here, but he's still the imposing evil
• 27:31
  character that we love, and why he's so fearful of a character
• 27:37
  to this day like cuz you don't know a lot about them and we
• 27:39
  get, we've gotten more material and more media on him.
• 27:42
  But you got to keep a little bit of mystery with guys like that.
• 27:45
  You know, characters, I should say, how do you feel about Out
• 27:48
  like a confrontation between him and Obi-Wan.
• 27:51
  I still don't want one to happen.
• 27:53
  I don't want like a physical confrontation.
• 27:55
  I want. Okay, I'll hold my tongue
• 27:58
  because if it's done, well, I'll accept anything at this point
• 28:02
  because I don't know everything. I don't see everything.
• 28:04
  I can't picture anything. You know, I'm going to leave it
• 28:07
  up to the professionals but I'm inclined to say like I would
• 28:11
  choose not to have one unless you really blow my mind.
• 28:14
  Yeah yeah I'm a purist. I like the Obi-Wan Vader.
• 28:18
  Foundation. We see in a New Hope and leave
• 28:19
  it at that. You know what I mean?
• 28:20
  But I'm open. I'm open to something if it's
• 28:22
  done Tastefully. Well, it'll be interesting to
• 28:24
  see him and well, you and Hayden playing off each other again.
• 28:29
  Listen, if they have a moment where they just look at each
• 28:32
  other or since each other and don't even come in contact with
• 28:36
  each other, I'm here for that 1000%.
• 28:39
  Yeah that'd be. So that's the kind of shit we
• 28:42
  need that in a clone wars flashback of them in their armor
• 28:46
  so I'm going to Lose my fucking shit.
• 28:49
  We get that. We we have Yuan and we have
• 28:52
  Hayden just make it happen. But they're saying there's
• 28:56
  Easter eggs and and and flashbacks and things of that's
• 29:00
  going to reward fans. So yeah, if it's done, well, I'm
• 29:04
  here for it. I don't like fan service just
• 29:06
  for the sake of fan service but a little fan service every now
• 29:09
  and then never heard anybody come on now.
• 29:11
  Yes, I totally agree. If it continues to keep a good
• 29:15
  story. We are here for the story.
• 29:18
  Us. Yeah, because that's that's the
• 29:20
  thing that carries on overtime. It's not just like cool action
• 29:23
  sequences. It's this is why there's so many
• 29:27
  people obsessed with Star Wars. It's mostly because of the
• 29:30
  story. Not because of the gimmicks.
• 29:33
  Yeah, and I trust the people whose who have this show in
• 29:37
  their hands. So I do too.
• 29:39
  I mean, the director, she directed, it isn't mr.
• 29:42
  Robot is that the show? She directed and she also had a
• 29:46
  couple episodes of Mando and Yeah, and a fantastic job.
• 29:49
  I have I have full faith. Yeah.
• 29:51
  And like mr. Robot was excellently made so
• 29:55
  depressing. I just have watching it cuz it
• 29:56
  was like, that's good. We want pain, she's familiar
• 29:59
  with pea so she like she understood it like the
• 30:02
  dystopian? Yeah.
• 30:04
  She definitely gets that Vibe and does it really well.
• 30:07
  So I'm very excited to see what she'll do with this show and
• 30:10
  like I just it's so fucking awesome that there's a woman
• 30:13
  directing the show. That's really, I was really the
• 30:15
  exact same. I think that Should be proud of
• 30:18
  herself without seeing anything at all.
• 30:20
  That she is at the helm of a Kenobi, the Kenobi show.
• 30:24
  Like that's something to be proud of because this is no
• 30:27
  light order and no one's taking it lightly seriously and there's
• 30:31
  must be so much pressure because there's so much expectation you
• 30:34
  know it's like the thing that all the fans pretty much like
• 30:37
  like no of course not everybody but a huge proportion of fans
• 30:41
  are very excited about this and like with that comes a lot of
• 30:45
  stress and pressure to not fuck it up.
• 30:47
  Yep. Yes.
• 30:48
  Yeah, and of course I'm sure there's going to be a lot of
• 30:51
  disappointment because when you bring expectations like oh sure,
• 30:54
  there are not going to be met, especially not 100%.
• 30:58
  I don't think you and I are going to like everything.
• 31:00
  I'm sure we won't ya and we shouldn't and that's no knock on
• 31:04
  anybody. It's just the way of things.
• 31:06
  Yeah. But damn, it's good to have a
• 31:09
  female director and on this May the 4th 2022, there's a lot to
• 31:15
  appreciate between you and I And between everyone in the fandom.
• 31:19
  I mean, we are. It's an embarrassment of riches
• 31:21
  around here. Oh my God.
• 31:23
  Yes, 100. I couldn't have said it better
• 31:26
  myself. It's so like, what?
• 31:28
  A time to be a Star Wars fan. I know, I know, I know.
• 31:33
  We're lucky bastards. All right.
• 31:42
