Notice how even in hiding, he mantains the high ground.
doubly so because you know he's also totally stoned on that sweet spice... I mean gotta pass the time with something lol
true he probably rides on that animal aswell just to have the high ground
Lmaooooo
Am I the only one who thinks that officers badge is GREEN, not BLUE?
ROFL
regardless of how the grand inquisitor looks, everything in this trailer is amazing
Yeah!
Even if he looks a bit off i’m just glad we are getting him. He’s such a good villain
He look like Prometheus
Piccolo from DragonBall Evolution is back for revenge. Lol
I’m still extremely excited to see what they do with this series. It’s my most anticipated alongside Andor. I just think they could have done better with the Grand Inquisitor.
One of my favorite Star Wars book is Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader. It takes place immediately after Revenge of the Sith, and it shows Anakin is having second thoughts and regrets. His Vader suit is cumbersome and slows his reflexes when flying. He admits it's his fault Padme is dead. He even contemplates taking out Palpatine and ruling himself, as one.
It's such a great book.
I have that book, it's incredible
I read that one... Really was not a fan. I did not like seeing Darth Vader's whiny inner monologue.
@@the_quadracorn I didn't read it.. But after 3 Prequels of his whiny regular monologue, I'm sure I dont need to lol
Yeah the suit is meant to weaken him. Palpatine wanted to weaken Vader and so eventually managed to make a suit that would actively inhibit his force powers. Vader refused and kept the lesser suit
@@antedote1 Ah to be fair, you're not trapped inside a suit that actively tortures you.

Um. Betrayal can only come from a friend. Can't come from a foe. Derp.

Hearing Duel Of The Fates almost brought a tear to my eye, as well as goosebumps.
Roman white definitely brought a tear to my eye and Everyone’s as well it really brought back some Phantom Menace vibes
goosebumps to your eye? sounds painful
@@flarey9495 ikr
same
Same. Instant chills.
It's so awesome to be a star wars fan right now. And it's awesome to have Hayden back as Aniken under the helmet playing Darth Vader. We've missed you. Glad to have you back.✌
I’m just glad we’re getting John Williams back for one last time. He really is a living legend.
What do you mean one last time?
@@Deinobi We all thought TRoS was his final Star Wars movie given him saying that, so getting him one more time is a blessing.
@@Deinobi He's coming out of retirement just for this series
@@travisk9897 oh that's why. Didn't know that
I believe he only came back to score a theme, the rest of the episodes will be scored by someone else.
I love how Erik is always like “details you MIGHT have overlooked” and in the first scene is like “look at this one grain of sand here THAT IS ACTUALLY..” like yeah no I for sure overlooked that.
Every video 😂
Once Duel of the Fates hit, it became EVERYONES most anticipated series of the year!!! ✨ 🌎 🌝 ☀️ ☀️
Ye prog
Can I be more dumb I meant ye prob
Unfortunately yes lol

Now that we have live action inquisitors, hopefully we could have some brutal lightsaber fights
And live action lightsaber flying!
@@Unhelpful_Goose let’s hope not lol
Ewan is back you just know they're gonna redeem the Saber battles after all the shitty ones we got in the Sequels
Hope so!!
Maybe have obi wan duel wielding his own blue saber as well as quingons
Obi Wan is my favorite character in all of Star Wars. From the acting legend Alec Guiness to the talent of Ewan McGregor, Kenobi could elevate a film by his mere presence. Although I have my reservations about all Disney+ shows, I am ecstatic with excitement
Duel of the fates is such a freaking masterpiece and I could listen to it for hours and hours
Hi droid general
what’s stopping you
@@bradysward11 you right
I soo love how Erik appreciated Hayden Christensen's dark stare as Anakin stood on the bridge with a tear down his eye...
There's so much anger and conflict that could be seen within Anakin in that scene!! Ewan feels even more dashing to me as ObiWan now!!!
Also the Grand Inquisitor's head looks very wide compared to his thinner appearance in Rebels... Don't know why they don't just get a thin person for the role...
i know it won’t happen because of sw canon but i would absolutely die for another emotional encounter between hayden and ewan
That potential clone looks like Echo, the back of the head has the same attachment on it and in the frame with the beat up armor, it looks like a mechanical arm
I think the mechanical arm is not a clone's, but rather is the droid's arm/hand and the "clone armor" is actually just the armor of the droid. It's different than clone armor, but it does have more similarities to clone armor than stormtrooper armor.
@@WretchedExcess it’s literally the same color as the droid it’s not that hard to follow
The trailer was awesome, and the action looks epic; but I hope they really focus on the human struggle Obi Wan has to endure in his exile. The toll that watching his whole world fall to pieces at the hands of his closest friend takes.
It felt like a movie.Just some scenes were looking like greem screen which will hopefully be fixed in the finished product
That's what I'm worried about. This trailer makes it look like it's all spectacle. Just give me a Kenobi samurai film with him exiled in the desert, dealing with his personal demons and being roped into local affairs so he can reconnect with humanity in a post-jedi world. They could have just kept it small but it looks like they're throwing in every single little freakin thing from the lore and it seems like too much
I CANNOT WAIT for the Hayden / Ewan duel. Hayden's turn to the dark side is my fave act of any Star Wars movie and I grew up on the OG 3. It's what the series needed.
"duel of the fates" is my favorite star wars song ever. it's just so good, and the vocals are just so powerful.
plus the nostalgia is UNREAL
@@GloriousLuke agreed
This gotta be one of my favorite trailers of aot. Goosebumps, they didn’t even tease obi wielding a lightsaber or Vader in it and it was still amazinf
SO excited for this! Ewan McGregor is Obi-Wan personified. Do you think we'll get our first look at Caleb Dume aka Kanan Jarrus in live action?
I hope so, and I hope Freddie Prince Jr plays him
@@gaventovar5820 Rebels happens 6 or so years after this doesn't it? Freddie might be a bit too old to be playing a younger Kanan. obv they could just do the Disney de-ageing tech but idk. I'm personally hoping for a Cal Kestis appearance over Kanan but I do really want to see him in live action and Freddie would be perfect for it.
If Freddie Prince returns to the screen for that role it will be epic
Is he confirmed to be in this?
Wasn't Sir Alec Guiness Obi Wan personified?
The blaster of the person in the alley way reminds me of Cad Bane's blaster, also the alley way scene is set up like a western duel. Could it be him? There's no way we only get those few episodes of him and that's it right
I am guessing it is totally him! Not a single video has said this, but that looks Iike his L30 blaster to me!
@@christopher3226 if it is I am coming back to this comment to give you a high five lol
Plz let me know too
@@christopher3226 Cad Bane definitely was still a bounty hunter at this point
i've got a good one for the q&a: do you think obi-wan ever discovered ahsoka survived the purge & if so, do you think they were ever able to reunite prior to his ill-fated trip to the death star?
I hope we see a live action Maul scream “KENOBI!!!”
I’m wondering if the people shooting on the roof are purge troopers. That could be a cool way to bring in temura to play some purge trooper clones
- Mando's theme is iconic. Its perfect and everyone loves it. Boba's theme is badass and I honestly think its better. What amazing score will Goransson make this time? cant wait.
Imagine the BOBF theme, but instead of chanting 'Boba Fett', they chant 'Kenobi' and 'Hello There'
We could possibly get a Cal Kestis cameo or reference in this series which would be kinda cool
that’s what i thought like the scene where someone was jumping it looked like cal was jumping on the train in the opening of the game. also, there looks like a wall where you could wall-run in the game. it might be a reach but who knows
Id love to BD 1 scanning somthing then in walks cal asking what he has found then hopping on his shoulder
I hope we do get one, at first I didn’t think much of Cal but his writing is to good to just be only kept in the confines of the game.
At exactly 9:00 minutes the kid from behind looks like Cal to me
That'd be sick
John Williams' score for Star Wars is so iconic that just placing the right pieces manges to convey everything!
The last few bars of Anikin's Dark Deeds is just doom falling upon us.
It was used to masterful effect in both the final episodes of The Clone Wars and in Jedi Fallen Order; and now, here harken the return of Vader.
I love so much how the animated series give Maul such a richer personality and story. I really hope he's in this series.
No chance
It doesn't matter how the inqusitors look, as long as they deliver a good performance and the story is entertaining it will not matter.
If shit gave a good performance I’d still not like that
I think the look matters most as first impressions are everything
@@offlineraided Exactly, like the spy kids in the Book of Boba Fett
i agree
I disagree looks are equally important
There’s something I noticed: Reeva has a standard single hilt lightsaber and not the same one as the other Inquisitors.
Most peculiar
They don’t have to both light. They can be ignited one at a time.
@@moonmagickisreal Well, yeah. But I’m talking about the design of the hilt. Hers doesn’t have the circular disk
i was hoping i wasn’t the only one that noticed this
I absolutely LOVE your energy and expertise in these videos!!! You are amazing and I appreciate all of your time and efforts. Currently have covid and this has really cheered me up!!
I think that the “clone armor” that could be Rex is just the droid that could be kumail’s character
What about the bald head facing the inquisitor?
If you compare the armor to clones and stormtroopers, the back of the thigh armor is definitely clone armor. The butt part is different though. I still think it’s a clone. Plus there is some blue paint on it that may mean Rex.
I just rewatched. I think you're right. It's the backside of the droid which strangely has armor similar to a clone's. If you watch the 2 second sequence you see the droid talking to the stromtrooper and then the backside of the droid and the stromtrooper exiting the room. Along with the rear shot you can also see the very droid-like hand lower in the shot and adjust it's grip on some kind of large hammer. This sequence could suggest opposition to the stormtroopers. I wonder if the droid is somehow connected to the clones and if they are working together against the empire?
I think they’re looking for Kenobi, on Vader’s orders that there was no way he’d die to order 66 after his duel, and Kenobi will have to spend the whole series bringing them away from tatooine to protect Luke until he can lose their trail
2:50 I think he is talking to a Padawan that somehow tracked him down, and he's telling that Padawan to go into hiding and give up, but I think it's the Padawan that attracts the inquisitors and they kill him, forcing Obi-Wan to leave if he wants to protect Luke.
For me Ewen McGregor was the best actor in the whole Star Wars saga. So it‘s great to see him again there.
Honestly tho when John Williams’s iconic Duel of the fates theme it honestly brought a tear to my eye and just hearing that was just what heaven sounds like, like angelic
The fifth brother makes the grand inquisitor look good
Yup, should’ve gone with josh brolin. Just put him back into his thanos get up and replace purple with grey.
Your breakdowns never disappoint. Yousa awesome.
Calling it now, this series will win an Emmy for best soundtrack from a tv series
15:43 I think this is Cad Bane for 2 reasons. the blasters look very alike, and this looks like his coat.
Clicked the spot on my phone where notifications pop up as soon as this one did. I'm good.
Watching the trailer break down is just making me want to watch Kenobi more, it’s going to be torture until it airs for the first time
I am so looking forward to this series!!!
It's called the Duel of the Fates because whoever lived after the battle would become anikins master and the fate of the jedi order.
Duel of the fates is almost as iconic as Booooooom looking for this
I was in a play with the extra who pulls the woman closer to him during the “hanging” shot and it keeps blowing my mind to see him over and over
I’m glad there are ppl like you to connect all the dots. I like love Star Wars but there’s so many details to keep up with!
What if that hand on the Jedi symbol is actually Vader, could be a more meaningful emotional moment
Because thats not Vaders glove?
Too small and thin; definitely a woman's hand.
Voss does the best videos. I love the pace and of course the jokes!
It wouldn’t be Rex because by the time of Rebels Rex thinks Obi-Wan is dead. Also Ahsoka hadn’t seen Obi-Wan since TCW at the point it was at in rebels
Obi Wan: I must stay hidden, no matter what.
Maul: Kenobi!
Obi-Wan: Aw shit, here we go again.
Can you make a video explaining the entire live-action timeline of everything going on with Star Wars right now? I’m so confused.
I wanna see Vader remove his mask when he faces Obi Wan. Would be cool to have a brief moment where Anakin remembers the time before he turned, and some good dialog between a master and his old apprentice, before the Dark-side takes him again and he unleashes his fury as they duel.....THIS would be EPIC.....
I’m so glad we get Star Wars content that satisfies the fans (without all the complaints lol)
By the end of the season everyone will be complaining again. It's inevitable. 🙃
It might turn in to another fan service nightmare but I hope it goes well
As a Northern Irishman I approve of your Liam Neeson impression hahahaha
The inquisitor underwater place would be sick if cal kestis was swimming by like in fallen order
That took place 5 years before this series.
John Williams is THE GOAT! One of a kind! This series is going to be AMAZING!
Totally random thought here, it'd be pretty cool if we see even just a cameo of Cal Kestis from Jedi: Fallen Order, since that game was very closely tied to the Inquisitors. I don't know how the timing lines up though, if that game was before or after this
I would to, maybe see bd1 scanning somthing then cal kestis walking into frame asking about what bd is scanning before hopping on his shoulder
Fallen Order takes place 5 years before this series.
Before it
Wow you guys totally nailed that prediction with the other force sensitive fugitive!
Man, I gotta be honest, my love for Star Wars has waned over the years. I haven’t so much as seen all of solo. Caught up with recap of the last few episodes of Book of Boba Fett. But this trailer sparked some real nostalgia and I think I’m finally going to pick up Jedi fallen order. Cheers 👍
It's a fantastic game. Enjoy!
Yeah same haven’t cared for Star Wars except the games now
@@toocanny live action series are pretty great
I recently saw Dave Filoni talking about Phantom Menace and how the title, 'Dual of the Fates' was meant to refer to the dual for the fate of Anakin. Cause if Qui-Gon had survived Anakin would of been saved from the Dark side because Qui Gon would of been the real father he needed, to guide him. Instead he had a brother Obi wan who raised him, and Obi Wan didn't even like him for awhile. But Obi Wan got redemption with Luke, Luke sacrificed for his father, and Anakin changed to be the father for Luke that he never had. fuckin beautiful
5:27 "this is set one year after the events of Solo," doesn't BBY mean before the battle of Yavin, meaning it runs backwards, so 9BBY is one year BEFORE 8BBY, not after?
Yeah they f'ed it up right there...
@@jarednavarrete1740the Obi-Wan series takes place ten years after revenge of the sith
Solo takes place 5 years before ANH
6:30 the rupert frent joke was so stupid I loved it
Yeah, I'm betting Obi-Wan _has_ to leave Tattooine, to draw the Inquisitors away.
It's the most effective way to protect Luke without revealing himself on the surface, or getting himself in an open conflict, (aggressive negotiations,) with them.
And, if the Inquisitors can use the benevolence of the Jedi against them, luring them out of hiding by appealing to their compassion, (the same way Maul did, with his brother, during the Clone Wars with the, "slaughter of innocents,") then a wise Jedi can use a Dark Side user's fear, hatred, and aggression against them, as well.
By making enough "noise" with the Force somewhere else, making himself irresistible to them, they could end up competing with each other to find him, off-world.
Thus, protecting Luke back on Tattooine, without having to reveal himself, (or especially Luke,) to them while they are on Tattooine, giving them reason enough to search somewhere else entirely.
I can't imagine a better reason Obi-Wan would leave, unless his doing so was part of fulfilling his primary objective.
Maul was able to determine, quite quickly, what Obi-Wan was doing on Tattooine when he found him. Obi-Wan wasn't above his thoughts, (or feelings,) betraying his true purpose at all. Even by then.
_"Why come here? Unless you're protecting something? No, protecting someone!"_
(Kenobi sparks up his lightsaber!)
Which made the decision for him, how he would be dealing with Maul, once and for all, pretty simple really.
Anyway, that's my thoughts. (Whatever they're worth. ✌😇)
"Hanging, too dark for Star Wars" I mean, you watched the finale of Book of Boba Fett, Fennec hung the mayor :D
Well to be fair this is a very dark era in Star Wars all the way back to Order 66. We need more Dark in Star wars for the adults.
Can't wait to see Mace Windu
Ik me too
I know there's only so many ways a place can look but from the description and the brief look we get it's giving me serious Madripoor vibes.
I wanna see a Vader movie, we almost constantly follow him in the early days of the Empire.
I've never been so excited for a series in my life
I hope we get to see the inquisitors use their lightsabers as helicopters
God I hope not.
@@sheepbentley4717 yeah.. nobody wants to see that lol. I don't at least. Some things don't transfer over well from cartoons to live action.
I would get a seizure, that was single worst thing to come out of rebels was that dumb stuff holy
Being honest I kinda like that idea
Change ur pfp
Excelently detailed analysis, top stuff
The blue clone armour that you think is Rex is that blue droid from before
Maul didn't just find out Kenobi was living on Tatooine during Rebels, he also found out Obi Wan was alive, so a cameo would be impossible
Why isn't Jason Isaacs playing the grand inquisitor?????? Such a missed opportunity
I believe he is busy with other things.
Second best Erik based Raycon advert I have seen online.
my hope is that commander cody apears
That would be epic
very cool
I just want to see a live action named clone. Cody, Rex, but it being Cody makes more sense
13:59 I thought this was Mace Windu but it makes more sense that it’s one of the clones.
Just one correction, Rex actually survives to Return of the Jedi, he was in the forest moon of Endor, fighting for the Rebellion, Rex is just awesome and if we see him I will lose my shit
Yup he's shown with his white beard after they seize the empire's secret base on endor
I'm pretty sure Samuel L Jackson could return as mace windu.I hope temuera Morrison reprises his role as rex
“Stay hidden”
I’m guessing he’s talking to Asoka.
Maul doesn't know that Obi-Wan is alive. In the finale of season 2 of Rebels, he says "He lives" repeatedly while leaving malachor.
I think he would’ve known by then that vader was still alive cause this is year later from what I can see
So hyped for this!
how about murdering the padawans in the Jedi temple? in my opinion is his darkest moment.
I’m calling it, Obi Wan is saying “the fight is over, we lost” to Qui Gon as a force ghost
I just hope Grievous is in this in some form or another
Why would he be? Grievous is dead on Utapau.
@@RebelGaming4U Flashbacks
Been waiting for this video since the trailer dropped! 🔥 🔥
What if Asohka is in this, and that is who Obi-Wan is talking to about "we lost" - perhaps as a response to Asohka trying to recruit Obi-Wan into the Rebellion?
but could also be bail organa as only he and yoda know where kenobi is
@Ahsoka Tano easy... we know you love Ahsoka
The grand inquisitor looks so normal, it’s unsettling. That’s only one thing out of a whole lot of awesome though. I’m stoked for Kenobi!
Could you imagine if the whole time they were never chasing Obi Wan. They were chasing another high ranking Jedi council member. Like god of war 4. My money would be on Plo Koon. Mace is also likely but he's such a big character his return would distract from the rematch. Plo is pretty likely to have survived because he never see a body, we see an explosion then nothing.
Plo Koon is definitley dead. In ROTS his ship is shot down during order 66. It crashes and there is a huge explosion.
@@TheManWithoutFear0 Ship explosions are a way to leave a characters fate ambitious. It's pretty common.
Same could be said about Adi Gallia on the speeder bike...we see the bike explode and land in the river but thats it. Also we dont see Mace Windus body either. So it could be anybody.
Instant chills when I saw young Luke like Anakin from ep 1 straight into Duel of Fates.
For a brief second i thought BBY stood for Before Baby Yoda...
PLEASE LET CAL KESTIS MAKE A CAMEO ATLEAST, THIS WAS SET AT THE TIME CAL KESTIS WAS A JEDI AND FOUGHT THE INQUISITORS
I want Maul to be resurrected in the future, Maul could’ve left steps in his Holocron to return. I really hope he does come back.
I thinks his story is complete, he met his end and got some sort of closure
@@Vitafiend HOW?!!!
@@kraytsclaw6747 In Rebels, he and Obi-Wan fight and it very much feels like the end of his story.
Also I don't think disney would hire that actor again after his instagram incident
Almost every scene gave me goosebumbs
I can’t look past the fact that the Grand Inquisitor looks nothing like his Rebels counterpart. He’s clearly meant to be taller, skinnier and have a longer/less rounded head.
Clonewars dooku.
Do live action characters have to be exactly like they are in animated media?
@@lillehei his species was in rots lmao, they looked so much better there
Agreed. I like the actor but can't imagine they couldn't have found someone very tall and slender with a narrow face.
@@zachawtin192 yeah and he looked like he had to wear a neck brace too. The Grand Inquisitor is going to be doing stunt work so I'm sure they had to do it the way they did in order to give him free movement.
I wonder where between 3 and 4 this series will take place. We’ve now got Kenobi, solo, rogue one, and rebels.
Another thing Rex actually survives until the battle of endor. A lot of people I’ve talked to say that one of the troopers with Han, luke, and Leia when they try to get into the shield generator on endor
‘Duel of the fates’ IS NOT Maul’s theme. It’s The theme of Anakin’s fate.
Look it up.
It's popularized as Maul's theme.
Rupert FOE!!! lolll!!! i LOVE IT
