Obi-Wan doesn't need to be on the high ground, the high ground just needs to exist within the battle; Obi-Wan knows that when he has the low ground, he really has the high ground, from a certain point of view; Look at his battle record: Maul: Has low ground, wins Dooku: No high ground, loses Dooku rematch: No high ground, loses Grevious: Has low ground, wins Vader: Has high ground, wins Vader rematch: No high ground, loses Obi-Wan with the high/low ground is canonically the most powerful Jedi. This is fact. Had Yoda not denied his request to battle The Senate with typical Jedi arrogance, Obi-Wan could have defeated Palpatine in the Senate building, which housed a variety of different altitudes; this was designed so that the Chancellor could always have the moral high ground in political debates. But Obi-wan didn't fight The Senate, and Yoda soon learned that you can't cleave the Sheev in a normal 1v1. Yoda is shorter than virtually every other fighter, which gives him a permanent low-ground disadvantage; however, his saber-fighting style utilizes a flipping-heavy technique in order to negate this weakness for a temporary window. You'll notice that, as he falls from the central podium in The Senate's building, he immediately retreats, knowing that he can never hold the high ground in this duel. You'll also notice that, while training Luke, he rides on him like a mount, to gain the intellectual high ground and accelerate Luke's training. Obi-Wan's defensive Form III lightsaber style synergizes with his careful military maneuvers; as he only strikes when prepared, he can always hold the strategic high ground. You'll come to realize that Commander Cody's artillery strike failed against Obi-Wan, when hundreds of Jedi were killed in similar attacks. Cody failed to grasp the strategic situation, as the Jedi Master's elevation was superior to his by hundreds of meters, making him virtually unkillable. Had Cody taken his time and engaged the Jedi on even terrain, he could have possibly succeeded. Obi-Wan then retreated under the surface of the lake, so that he could maintain the topographical low/high ground. In RotS, you'll notice that all the Jedi killed were on level ground with the clones, thereby assuring their demise. As we all know, spinning is a good trick. However, only the Chosen one can spin outside of a starfighter. Palpatine tried spinning, but he lost due to this technique (but this was intentional, as losing gave him the emotional high ground when Anakin arrived). The reason for this is that spinning provides a yin-yang approach to combat (based in Eastern philosophy on balance), giving the spinner the high ground from above and below. Only the Chosen One can master the spin, as it is their destiny to maintain balance in the universe. This is why Obi-Wan was so emotional after defeating Vader on Mustafar; he expected to lose the high ground to the spin, but Anakin fell to the dark side and could no longer use his signature trick, becoming the very thing he swore to destroy. Anakin doesn't hate sand for the reasons he told Padme; all Jedi hate sand, as the battlefield can rapidly change between low and high ground on multiple vectors, so your perspective must be from a certain three-dimensional point of view in order to comprehend who holds the high ground. This is the only reason why Obi-Wan killed Maul in Rebels. This is also why Obi-Wan hates flying; there is no gravity in space, therefore there is no high or low ground from any frame of reference (This also negates the spinning trick). It took the Tusken Raiders years of conflict against Old Ben Kenobi to grasp his superiority in terrain advantage, as you see them visibly flee in ANH when they realize he holds the low (inverse-high) ground. Additionally, Obi-Wan's victory in the cantina against the drunkard was assured, as he held the temperamental high ground, his actions more calculated and well-thought than the alcoholic, who was so uncivilized. In ANH, Vader proves his newfound mastery by engaging Obi on perfectly even ground. However, Obi-Wan intentionally sacrifices himself on the Death Star, so that he could train Luke from a higher plane of existence, thereby giving him the metaphysical high ground. Why was Vader so invested in the construction and maintenance of the Death Star? Because he knows Obi-wan can't have the high ground if there's no ground left. As seen through the events of the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan was known to be on friendly terms with Senator Organa, whose homeworld held large quantities of mountainous terrain, the perfect habitat for a Jedi Master. Grand Moff Tarkin was already in position to destroy Alderaan as a first target, as the distance from Scarif to Alderaan was too vast to reach between the escape and recapture of the Tantive IV, even at 1.0 lightspeed. Alderaan had been the initial target all along, as Obi-Wan with the high ground was the primary threat to the Death Star. How? Because a moon-sized space station would have some form of gravitational pull, thereby negating Obi-Wan's zero-gravity weakness; Obi-Wan with the perpetual high-ground in a low-orbit starfighter would easily be able to fire proton torpedoes through a ventilation shaft, although the Empire was uncertain of the specific weakness of the Death Star planned by Galen Erso (who was a good friend). In Return of the Jedi, you can see that the Throne Room contains a variety of different altitudes; Palpatine placed these there to ensure Vader's defeat. However, Sheev failed to realize that his weakness was no ground, and should have covered that useless gaping pit which does nothing. A common misconception is the idea of a 'prostrate position' version of the high ground, wherein Obi-Wan lies flat on his back, giving him tactical superiority from his point of view. However, this strategy is futile, as for the high ground to come into effect, there must be a differential between parties on both the x-axis and y-axis to a moderately significant variation from both absolutes (Angles only a Sith would deal in.). For Obi-Wan's high ground powers to have full effect, he must stand between 15 and 75 degrees (π/12 to 5π/12 radians) diagonal from his opponent(s) on any quadrant of the trigonometric circle. In conclusion, Obi-wan abuses spatial relativity and Taoist doctrine in order to always invoke his high-ground powers.
I think internal demons the way to go with Obi-Wan. The film most likely occurs between episodes III & IV, and the major canonical development for him there (we have to assume) is communing with Qui-Gon and developing the ability to join with Force after death. The standalone movie is the obvious place to address this feat and also expand the myths of the Force itself. Also, seeing Obi-Wan investigate this ability could add major emotional weight to his sacrifice in A New Hope - perhaps even repurposing the 'Hope' in that title so I it subtly alludes to Jedi mastering the ability to join with the Force. Traditionally, we've seen the 'Hope' as being Luke, but Rogue One made that 'Hope' the galvanisation of the rebellion - the Obi-Wan standalone movie could redefine 'Hope' again by showing Obi-Wan (and maybe Yoda) come to a fuller understanding of the Force itself under Qui-Gon's instruction. Oh and Tuskens and Hutts! ;)
I agree about the fact that this film's "antagonist" shouldn't necessarily be a physical character, but PTSD. But I must admit, I don't agree with the whole "expanding on what the force is" thing. As long as its a mystery, it will be more intriguing.
I think if Vader were to be involved in the Obi Wan movie then we would see him hunting surviving Jedi of order 66 and being lectured by Palpitine that he is dead and it's time for Vader to face that.
Theoretically, could Vader's damaged breathing apparatus have sustained him until Luke could get him medical attention, rather than Luke taking off his mask like in the movie? Or was his apparatus too damaged from Palpatine's lightning to keep him alive long enough?
Ren Outlaw yeah, his suit was very evidently fried and melting, but his breathing apparatus/life support systems seemed to still be (barely) operational.
I think that Vader could have survived long enough. He just did not want to. He knew that he would simply be executed by the Rebels and he did not want to put Luke through that. So he had Luke take off his mask so he could die in peace with Luke by his side.
Liam O He was forcing it. He can breathe but only so much. His lungs were burned and his internals fatigued. It hurt him too much. The machine did all the work for him.When he takes off his mask you'll notice he stops breathing. He practically uses his last breath to talk to Luke. Whether purposeful or coincidental, no sound is made for him breathing and his entire dub can be completed with one held breath.
Ya, I was waiting for him to mention this to his wife, surely he read it... or he was just being polite. But either way, that describes exactly what they were looking for. :P
Marathon of your videos while my girlfriend and I move into our new apartment. Teaching her all of the side stories and history of Star Wars in both canon and legends and re-learning a lot of stories and background details for myself ahead of the Last Jedi. Thank you for this channel, it is a great resource to learn about everything in this saga we all love. Keep up the great work! :D
Because if the Empire finds out that Obi Wan's on Tattooine, then the rest of the Empire finds out anyway through basic military protocol. And that would mean that Obi Wan has failed to stay in hiding, and the Empire would send whatever it would take to eliminate him: clones, Inquisitors, Vader. If the Empire knew Kenobi's location, it would be a breach of the story continuity. The Empire simply can't know.
The Obi wan movie imo should definitely take a different direction. They don't have to have your typical villain and so on. It should be like Logan I think. I think maybe a crime syndicate finds out Obi wan is a jedi, and instead of turning him in for a reward they blackmail him into working for them in taking down another crime syndicate. He delves into the underworld maybe meets a woman, she dies and so on. The inner demons is also a great idea. I can imagine him doing some bad things to keep Luke and his identify a secret. I'd love to see the first act of the movie just him living in his small house. Checks up on Luke a few times a day. Collects food and gets a drink at the local cantina hah. Maybe smoke some deathsticks. I'd also like Qui Gon to speak to him. Liam Neeson as the force voice. It doesn't have to be R rated (although I'd love that), just a bit darker than your usual.
from what I remember from my RPG day's, almost all force powers require some form of line of sight to your intended target (which has to include holograms as they were writing rules to cover things that happened in the films)
Here's my ideas for villains for the Obi Wan Movie -A force sensitive Tusken Raider -A force sensitive group of Tusken Raiders -Boba Fett -Grand Inquisitor -Jabba the Hutt -A fallen Jedi (Here's some joke ones) -Darth Jar Jar -The High Ground -Old Age -Uncle Owen
I find the concept of an R-rated Star Wars movie to be pretty fascinating, because Star Wars is a universe where there's basically endless possibilities for storytelling, and while it doesn't hurt anything to keep Star Wars PG/PG-13, going straight-up R could lead to some interesting possibilities. If they were to go that route, I'd say Shatterpoint would be an ideal choice. I mean, aside from Shatterpoint dealing with some of the uglier themes of war, you just couldn't do an R-rated Star Wars without Samuel L. Jackson :P
Ewan Callister he heard about how Darth Vader killed Jedi on Kashyyyk from a gangster in mos eisley. He already knew Anakin called Darth Vader from the hologram in Revenge of the Sith
I think in the Clone Wars they explain it. B1 and B2 battle droids are different phases of the same model. One of the changes is in the voice. They're better suited to the role of security, and make poor soldiers. I think the B2 was a slight upgrade to make them better soldiers, but a side-effect of their design makes them "chatty".
Well, in RotS, the droids have very high-pitched voices. The reason the droids have high-pitched voices in TCW is to maintain continuity. And it gave us some honestly great comedy!
agree that Star Wars is a fantasy story. The forward in Battlefield Earth had a nice rundown on what makes the different fiction genres. For a story to be Science Fiction, even with suspended belief, there must be a chance for parts of the story to exist in the known realm of science. As for a question, this is more of a fun comedy question. when Mel Brooks made Space Balls, George Lucas allowed for cross pollination to occur. As such, a couple of scenes and props used in/for Star Wars is in Space Balls. One of the easiest examples is the Millennial Falcon is parked in Space Balls. Does this make Space Balls canon? Just think it would be cool if Han Solo flew around in the Space Balls universe.
I think a young Ponda Baba should be showcased at some point stealing Old Ben's hubcaps or walking across his lawn (the only one on the planet). It would make his quick dismemberment in Episode IV make more sense.
For the Obi-Wan Movie's villain I'd like an Imperial Moff (Grand Moff, Admiral, Grand Admiral?) anyone with a big sounding title, and have a Inquisitor as a side-villain or henchman, just as the Grand Inquisitor was a henchman for Grand Moff Tarkin. So we can get interesting villain scenes and have a Lightsaber duel every now and then if they wanted to include one, but still keep the growing empire as a real/new threat.
I think The Clone Wars should stay separate from Legends. The EU was its own thing and Disney Canon is its own thing. There are so maby inconsistencies found if The Clone Wars was in Legends Canon. Like in Legends and in The Clone Wars microseries Grievous is a totally different character with a different backstory than the one in The Clone Wars. I like Canon and Legends Grievous but I don't like mixing up their backstories and creating inconsistencies there. They should really just stay separate.
It was legends before disney canon existed but because of the inconsistencies with the karen traviss republic commando books with the mandolorian origins and the 2003 clone wars with how grievous got his raspy voice i dont consider it legends
In short, The Clone Wars changed a few details from the EU as it took priority in the canon but it was still open to using many elements from it. And some of the later books such as The Fate of the Jedi series took elements from the cartoon. Back when The Clone Wars was around they wanted to be consistent with the Expanded Universe at first, but just decided to ignore some of it when they could. So, in the comics, Adi Gallia was killed by Grievous, but in the cartoon she was killed by Savage. In the comics, Aurra Sing was a failed Jedi Padawan who went on a long rampage killing Jedi and stealing their lightsabers. That origin was ignored in the cartoon and any connection she had to the Force ignored as well. And Even Piell died a different way in the books. There were quite a few things The Clone Wars adapted from the EU though. Aside from a more light hearted personality they understood what Quinlan Vos can do. The planet Onderon along with the walled city of Iziz and the Beast Riders is taken right from Tales of the Jedi. The Nightsisters of Dathomir were from the EU, as was Maul's design from the non-canon Old Wounds comics. Also they wanted to bring Thrawn into season 2, Revan and Bane into season 3, and they had plans for the Yuuzhan Vong.
I'd like to see a movie for Obi-Wan where the Emperor attempts to eradicate Obi-Wan by sending a bounty hunter after him, maybe Cad Bane or something. The only time we see Vader is in his discovery that the Emperor sent another to dispose of his rival/old-master and this disturbing lack of faith in Vader adding to the rage within him. The confrontation could tease the idea of Yoda also being hunted in the same way. I wouldn't mind if Kenobi left Tatooine but maybe never further than its moons Ghomrassen, Guermessa and Chenini.
I like the idea of the inquisitors as the villain but I also think it could be cool to have a bounty hunter as the villain. Imagine a movie about IG-88, Bossk, Dengar, or even Boba himself trying to hunt down Obi-Wan. Hell, it could be about Boba trying to get revenge for the death of his father (though maybe not because they're already making a boba movie.) Idk, I just like the idea of grounded movie on tattooine rather than Obi-Wan fighting some massive force-using threat.
Great insight all the time thank you and lol that out take I understand that feeling of saying something repeatedly especially when you say a word... Then go wait what's that word even mean it sound really weird now that I think about it
Ok, Wait for a moment. Remember those pictures from Ashoka Tano in the water with the owl? The owl has been theorized to be the daughter, but also if you take from legends, The daughter, Water... The pool of knowledge...
If Korkie Kryze is Duchess Satine's nephew and the only sibling of Satine we know of is Bo-Katan, is it safe to assume that Korkie is Bo-Katan's son? And if so do you think he will appear in Rebels Season 4?
I want to see a Commander Cody rescue/redemption arc in the Obi Wan movie. They had such a close relationship in the Clone Wars and to leave them with nothing but Cody's betrayal in RotS seems unfinished. Seeing some live-action flashbacks to the Clone Wars would be really awesome too.
Dude Obi-Wan's day to day struggle might prove to be a kind of villain on it's own. There's no shortage of struggles and villains that the writers can play with. I definitely want to see Obi-Wan struggle and eventual duel with A'Sharad Hett. I'll be really let down and frankly surprised if they don't include Hett.
I have an Idea for the Obi-Wan Movie. How about Mace Windu beeing the Villain? Maybe he survived and found out about Luke, and now he wants to kill him before he becomes as bad as his father. It would be cool to see a Jedi becoming a Villain in an other way than simply joining the Sith. And Mace Windu was always a little bit on the dark side anyway, he wanted to kill Palpatine before he could become more dangerous, maybe he became even more desperate. Sam Jackson wanted Mace to be alive and would certainly come back for the Role, and they even made a new Comic about Mace, so it could be true.
I have a different idea, perhaps the villain of the Obi Wan film could be Asharad Hett who in his quest to defeat the Sith by killing their servants a la an inquisitor ironically lets the darkness corrupt him and his clan of tuskens meet Obi Wan out in the dune seas of Tatooine as Hett explains his reasons and desires for the death of the empire(Obi Wan also wants the empire dead so this leads to emotional conflict as to what he should do)but he disagrees with Hett's methods but the tusken leader offers a bet to the old Jedi, a lightsaber duel and if Asharad wins they fight the empire immediately but if Obi Wan wins this plan goes nowhere and Hett is humiliated and subsequently killed by Obi Wan on his home planet.
Vader should have a parallel story to Obi Wan's - Hunting down the remaining Jedi throughout the galaxy and rising through the Empire. Obi-Wan's villain should be aging, and the feeling of guilt for not seeing what Anakin has become. I'd love if the movie had a Logan vibe to it.
I think the plot should be Obi-Wan protecting Luke and his family from Hutt water collectors (as we've seen before) but someone ends up getting a HoloVid of Kenobi and Obi-Wan ends up chasing him to protect his secret identity of a Jedi
The villain of the Kenobi movie should be a disillusioned Mace Windu. If Kenobi was forced to kill one of the only living Jedi left (especially if it was one he was friends with) to protect Luke, it could be an amazing character moment.
What about Sharad Hett? He becomes Darth Krayt eventually and would be a great way to lay the foundations for later movies. Plus he is a complex character with an amazing backstory.
I want the Obi-Wan movie to be set before the Phantom Menace so we can see him and Qui-Gon doing their thing. Maybe he could be doing stuff with Duchess Satine and maybe we could have a B-plot with Sidious and his Master. Maybe the two plots will kind of mirror each other like Ventress and Ahsoka in the Clone Wars
I'm not very keen on the Kenobi Standalone film at all, but I'd love to see a Finn origin story. He's probably the one character who needs it the most. It's a great opportunity to show off the First Order trooper program, and go into further detail in what the First Order is supposed to be exactly. I know it's a Military Junta-style government, but they could translate that easily to an audience in a Finn origin story. There has to be one experience that affects his mindset and demonstrates WHY he's so much more compassionate than the other stormtroopers, like a sort of mental "predecessor" to his ultimate defection.
The premise of the Obi-wan movie will be that he has to challenge someone to a philosophy debate. Obi-wan: "It's over. I have the moral high ground." Villain: "You under estimate my persuasiveness."
Maybe the ability force choke needs a face of whom to choke and a good background of where they are at that time like in season 4 of Arrow when Damian Dark did it to someone on the other side of the planet during a video chat.
I agree that the most logical villains are Tusken Raiders and Kenobi's own inner demons. However, I would love to see Ray Park reprise the role of Darth Maul!
I think a trip away from tat would be good for a movie, I think you can do a black saber movie on mandalor, with boba fett or another mandalorin. You can bring in a pointe lost love interest. Something that brings him away from his seclusion on tat may be by bounty hunters, Sent by a unknown mandalorin villain to recover a surviving Jedi, that forces Obi wan to face his past.
Question: In The Clone Wars, Dooku implies that he considered using Savage to overthrow his Master, telling him "We will be even more powerful than Lord Sidious. We shall rule the galaxy together, my apprentice." He seems to consider betrayal other times too. However, in the comic series, "Son of Dathomir", he seems 100% opposed to Maul's offer to help overthrow Sidious. Why do you think this is? Just a change of mindset similar to how Vader also swung back and forth on his loyalty (Lords of the Sith), that he just hates Maul, or that he was simply too scared? Thanks!
Do you think we should get a movie about the great jedi purge? I think it would be amazing and we could even have some more characters which would open up more comicas/books.
Could you imagine a "Chiss invasion" story (possibly even a movie)? I think it would create a cool new "villain" with own comprehensible motives without the involvement of a overpowered force user, but still a big enough threat to rally the galaxy. [SPOILER WARNING FOR THE THRAWN BOOK] I could imagine a set-up being created in a followup book to Thrawn, when we will find out more about Elis time with the Chiss. Maybe even an old Thrawn/Eli duo returning to the galaxy to conquer it with the Chiss? I think it would be awesome.
I think falcon is a general term for birds of prey like the falcons of our world. Just like horses is a term for general equestrian-style animals, and the same with snakes and lizards.
What about "a'sharad hett" as the villain for the Obi Wan movie? Obi Wan did have to fight him in legends, and I think it would be extremely cool for them to set up Darth Kryat as a possibility in the future. Plus it would make for good inner conflict and plot, Obi Wan having to fight another jedi who has survived order 66.
Thanks for the cool vids and info, you also rekindled the old SW spark for me as an OT fan, but you two look very pale, treat yourselves to a week or two of a holiday sometimes, you certainly deserve it and keep up the good work!
Luke should be the villain in an Obi-wan movie. Like, Obi-wan is trying to protect him, and he's constantly being put into harm's way by balancing not being noticed and saving Luke from crawling into a sarlacc pit at age 2, hooking up with the bad kids at age 12, etc. Whatchu think?
I think they should either keep to the tuskan raider story were he fights the tuskan jedi or the one from the book were he fights with the tuskans to root out an evil man from some desert oasis
I think Darth Maul should return one last time in this flim. I know Maul died in rebels. But I think it would be pretty cool to see him one final time.
I don't know why I didn't ask this earlier, but when you played Assault on Naboo in Battlefront 2, was the DC-15a fully automatic or semi automatic (which would be movie/Clone wars accurate) ? Also, why did the conflict come back to Naboo?
Alex Greaney in the CANON obi wan one shot from marvel obi wan always has to protect the lars family from jabba, so simply put, jabba has enough and sends his best bounty hunter, durge. Also keep in mind this movie is about 15 yeare before the battle of yavin, so althouth boba is a good bounty hunter, he's no where close to being the best in the galaxy.
Are you going to or have you done a cannon timeline video. I seen some of the book and comic stuff you've done but want to know which order to read them in. I reading some books and comics atm and want to know where to go next cheers Nath
Borek Customs they're probably busy with other stuff Or Palpatine really doesn't want to deal with a group of dark siders and intentionally made them small.
I know that in ANH, TIE's were originally meant to be blue, but blue screen technology wasn't as advanced and they proved difficult to film, so were made grey. In the time of ESB and RotJ, they (along with the other TIE models) were able to be filmed in their originally intended blue colour. My question is, has there ever been an in universe reason why TIE's went from grey (even in rebels) to blue?
I wanna see obi-wan saving Luke a couple times in the film this may be interesting and I think the brilliant can be the taskan raiders or a bounty Hunter
Oh, it should be Joclad Danva!!! Wait, what? Didnt he die in Genosis. NO!.Hey Guys, Kyle Rowling here. Couple of cool things to know, Joclad was the 'Twin Saber Master' of the Jedi order. In fact he invented the style of using two sabers at once. And Count Dooku actually learned this system from a young Joclad. (Unfortunately all of the footage of me using two sabers, and even more importantly Dooku using them - he actually grabbed Obi-wans saber and attacked Anakin with two in the hanger fight. Anakin is so good he studied what Dooku was doing and then disarmed him and reattacked Dooku with two sabers, that's the bit you see. Dooku then also did the same thing when fighting Yoda - was cut from the final movie.) The other BIG note, Joclad didnt die!!!! Yes you see him on the ground, but he is only badly wounded. A week after the Genosis battle, Dooku sneaks back there to get some stuff he left behind when he left in a hurry.While he is there, he feels and incredible presence in the force. He goes looking and finds a badly hurt Joclad with no memory. Of course Dooku remembers him and how skilled and powerful Joclad is so he takes him and hides him and trains him. His own secret apprentice, just in case. Eventual he trains Joclad to the point of being able to throw Sith lightning. Then he decides to tell him the truth. That he was a Jedi, but they left him behind to die. Joclad remembers everything, but decides he owes the Jedi nothing, but that he will also neve be a Sith. So he leaves, to be the baddest dude in the universe, fully trained in both Jedi and Sith arts. (This story line was approved by George and Chris Lee and I always wanted to make a short film, but unfortunately Chris passed away. Maybe we can do it in anime one day. RIP Chris.) So Joclad could be really pissed at Obi-wan, they may have been good friends in the Jedi Temple, and Joclad came to rescue Obi and Ani, and they left him behind. Bastards!!! Now Joclad wants revenge. If you like this this idea, make some noise people. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed this. Sincerely, Kyle
I think the Obi-Wan movie should be about him and Satine when they were young. It was established in season 2 of The Clone Wars that they kinda had a relationship going before they met again in Clone Wars.
I know he's legends now and he was the enemy of Kyle Katarn, but i'd like to see Jerec return as the Enemy in the new Obi-Wan film, he was an awesome villain in the Jedi Knight games, and while he'd get some changes to fit in with the new canon, i'd still keep him a former Jedi archaeologist who was turned to the Dark side to stay alive in the wake of the Jedi Purge, and it i'll be someone who Obi-Wan knows from the Jedi Order, and hell, i'd flesh out the story with Jerec hunting an ancient Rakatan artifact or superweapon buried Tatooine, and flesh that out as well.
Obi-Wan doesn't need to be on the high ground, the high ground just needs to exist within the battle; Obi-Wan knows that when he has the low ground, he really has the high ground, from a certain point of view;
Look at his battle record:
Maul: Has low ground, wins
Dooku: No high ground, loses
Dooku rematch: No high ground, loses
Grevious: Has low ground, wins
Vader: Has high ground, wins
Vader rematch: No high ground, loses
Obi-Wan with the high/low ground is canonically the most powerful Jedi. This is fact. Had Yoda not denied his request to battle The Senate with typical Jedi arrogance, Obi-Wan could have defeated Palpatine in the Senate building, which housed a variety of different altitudes; this was designed so that the Chancellor could always have the moral high ground in political debates. But Obi-wan didn't fight The Senate, and Yoda soon learned that you can't cleave the Sheev in a normal 1v1.
Yoda is shorter than virtually every other fighter, which gives him a permanent low-ground disadvantage; however, his saber-fighting style utilizes a flipping-heavy technique in order to negate this weakness for a temporary window. You'll notice that, as he falls from the central podium in The Senate's building, he immediately retreats, knowing that he can never hold the high ground in this duel. You'll also notice that, while training Luke, he rides on him like a mount, to gain the intellectual high ground and accelerate Luke's training. Obi-Wan's defensive Form III lightsaber style synergizes with his careful military maneuvers; as he only strikes when prepared, he can always hold the strategic high ground. You'll come to realize that Commander Cody's artillery strike failed against Obi-Wan, when hundreds of Jedi were killed in similar attacks. Cody failed to grasp the strategic situation, as the Jedi Master's elevation was superior to his by hundreds of meters, making him virtually unkillable. Had Cody taken his time and engaged the Jedi on even terrain, he could have possibly succeeded. Obi-Wan then retreated under the surface of the lake, so that he could maintain the topographical low/high ground. In RotS, you'll notice that all the Jedi killed were on level ground with the clones, thereby assuring their demise.
As we all know, spinning is a good trick. However, only the Chosen one can spin outside of a starfighter. Palpatine tried spinning, but he lost due to this technique (but this was intentional, as losing gave him the emotional high ground when Anakin arrived). The reason for this is that spinning provides a yin-yang approach to combat (based in Eastern philosophy on balance), giving the spinner the high ground from above and below. Only the Chosen One can master the spin, as it is their destiny to maintain balance in the universe. This is why Obi-Wan was so emotional after defeating Vader on Mustafar; he expected to lose the high ground to the spin, but Anakin fell to the dark side and could no longer use his signature trick, becoming the very thing he swore to destroy.
Anakin doesn't hate sand for the reasons he told Padme; all Jedi hate sand, as the battlefield can rapidly change between low and high ground on multiple vectors, so your perspective must be from a certain three-dimensional point of view in order to comprehend who holds the high ground. This is the only reason why Obi-Wan killed Maul in Rebels. This is also why Obi-Wan hates flying; there is no gravity in space, therefore there is no high or low ground from any frame of reference (This also negates the spinning trick).
It took the Tusken Raiders years of conflict against Old Ben Kenobi to grasp his superiority in terrain advantage, as you see them visibly flee in ANH when they realize he holds the low (inverse-high) ground. Additionally, Obi-Wan's victory in the cantina against the drunkard was assured, as he held the temperamental high ground, his actions more calculated and well-thought than the alcoholic, who was so uncivilized.
In ANH, Vader proves his newfound mastery by engaging Obi on perfectly even ground. However, Obi-Wan intentionally sacrifices himself on the Death Star, so that he could train Luke from a higher plane of existence, thereby giving him the metaphysical high ground.
Why was Vader so invested in the construction and maintenance of the Death Star? Because he knows Obi-wan can't have the high ground if there's no ground left.
As seen through the events of the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan was known to be on friendly terms with Senator Organa, whose homeworld held large quantities of mountainous terrain, the perfect habitat for a Jedi Master. Grand Moff Tarkin was already in position to destroy Alderaan as a first target, as the distance from Scarif to Alderaan was too vast to reach between the escape and recapture of the Tantive IV, even at 1.0 lightspeed. Alderaan had been the initial target all along, as Obi-Wan with the high ground was the primary threat to the Death Star. How? Because a moon-sized space station would have some form of gravitational pull, thereby negating Obi-Wan's zero-gravity weakness; Obi-Wan with the perpetual high-ground in a low-orbit starfighter would easily be able to fire proton torpedoes through a ventilation shaft, although the Empire was uncertain of the specific weakness of the Death Star planned by Galen Erso (who was a good friend).
In Return of the Jedi, you can see that the Throne Room contains a variety of different altitudes; Palpatine placed these there to ensure Vader's defeat. However, Sheev failed to realize that his weakness was no ground, and should have covered that useless gaping pit which does nothing.
A common misconception is the idea of a 'prostrate position' version of the high ground, wherein Obi-Wan lies flat on his back, giving him tactical superiority from his point of view. However, this strategy is futile, as for the high ground to come into effect, there must be a differential between parties on both the x-axis and y-axis to a moderately significant variation from both absolutes (Angles only a Sith would deal in.). For Obi-Wan's high ground powers to have full effect, he must stand between 15 and 75 degrees (π/12 to 5π/12 radians) diagonal from his opponent(s) on any quadrant of the trigonometric circle.
In conclusion, Obi-wan abuses spatial relativity and Taoist doctrine in order to always invoke his high-ground powers.
BattleUp Saber I only liked your comment because it's so long. Must of taken ages to write. I have no clue what it says though😂
Obi-Wan Kenobi Thanks, but i didn't write that. It's a popular Reddit copypasta that i pasted here.
BattleUp Saber you should hand this in for an assignment at school, bec u just wrote a book
BattleUp Saber Too much time?
There is high ground in the Dooku rematch. It even falls on top of Obi-wan.
A Qui-Gon Jinn force ghost in the obi wan movie would be cool
true his voice would still be cool though
qui gons force ghost was shown in the clone wars wich is canon
Handsome Matt well that was not actually qui gon in that episode
I think internal demons the way to go with Obi-Wan. The film most likely occurs between episodes III & IV, and the major canonical development for him there (we have to assume) is communing with Qui-Gon and developing the ability to join with Force after death. The standalone movie is the obvious place to address this feat and also expand the myths of the Force itself. Also, seeing Obi-Wan investigate this ability could add major emotional weight to his sacrifice in A New Hope - perhaps even repurposing the 'Hope' in that title so I it subtly alludes to Jedi mastering the ability to join with the Force. Traditionally, we've seen the 'Hope' as being Luke, but Rogue One made that 'Hope' the galvanisation of the rebellion - the Obi-Wan standalone movie could redefine 'Hope' again by showing Obi-Wan (and maybe Yoda) come to a fuller understanding of the Force itself under Qui-Gon's instruction. Oh and Tuskens and Hutts! ;)
This^^^
make him into Obi-Wan Kaboozie
I agree about the fact that this film's "antagonist" shouldn't necessarily be a physical character, but PTSD.
But I must admit, I don't agree with the whole "expanding on what the force is" thing. As long as its a mystery, it will be more intriguing.
Wayne Reacts And Sand And The High Ground
Thank you for answering my question Alex and Mollie! :)
I think if Vader were to be involved in the Obi Wan movie then we would see him hunting surviving Jedi of order 66 and being lectured by Palpitine that he is dead and it's time for Vader to face that.
Theoretically, could Vader's damaged breathing apparatus have sustained him until Luke could get him medical attention, rather than Luke taking off his mask like in the movie? Or was his apparatus too damaged from Palpatine's lightning to keep him alive long enough?
Liam O it wasn't just his breathing that was damaged. His entire body, covered in metal and wires, was electrocuted.
Ren Outlaw yeah, his suit was very evidently fried and melting, but his breathing apparatus/life support systems seemed to still be (barely) operational.
I think that Vader could have survived long enough. He just did not want to. He knew that he would simply be executed by the Rebels and he did not want to put Luke through that. So he had Luke take off his mask so he could die in peace with Luke by his side.
Liam O He was forcing it. He can breathe but only so much. His lungs were burned and his internals fatigued. It hurt him too much. The machine did all the work for him.When he takes off his mask you'll notice he stops breathing. He practically uses his last breath to talk to Luke. Whether purposeful or coincidental, no sound is made for him breathing and his entire dub can be completed with one held breath.
It's more than just breathing. I think he was going to die or best case be executed by the rebels
he called it! damn!
There is a small Star Wars novel called before the awakening and there is some backstory to Finn and first order training
Ya, I was waiting for him to mention this to his wife, surely he read it... or he was just being polite. But either way, that describes exactly what they were looking for. :P
Marathon of your videos while my girlfriend and I move into our new apartment. Teaching her all of the side stories and history of Star Wars in both canon and legends and re-learning a lot of stories and background details for myself ahead of the Last Jedi. Thank you for this channel, it is a great resource to learn about everything in this saga we all love. Keep up the great work! :D
Why not Commander Cody and a couple of Clones to be the Villian
RedSun446 Or Durge
that would be cool
Because if the Empire finds out that Obi Wan's on Tattooine, then the rest of the Empire finds out anyway through basic military protocol. And that would mean that Obi Wan has failed to stay in hiding, and the Empire would send whatever it would take to eliminate him: clones, Inquisitors, Vader. If the Empire knew Kenobi's location, it would be a breach of the story continuity. The Empire simply can't know.
what i was thinking
It's great to see you BOTH answering questions. Keep it up!
The Obi wan movie imo should definitely take a different direction. They don't have to have your typical villain and so on. It should be like Logan I think. I think maybe a crime syndicate finds out Obi wan is a jedi, and instead of turning him in for a reward they blackmail him into working for them in taking down another crime syndicate. He delves into the underworld maybe meets a woman, she dies and so on. The inner demons is also a great idea. I can imagine him doing some bad things to keep Luke and his identify a secret. I'd love to see the first act of the movie just him living in his small house. Checks up on Luke a few times a day. Collects food and gets a drink at the local cantina hah. Maybe smoke some deathsticks. I'd also like Qui Gon to speak to him. Liam Neeson as the force voice. It doesn't have to be R rated (although I'd love that), just a bit darker than your usual.
from what I remember from my RPG day's, almost all force powers require some form of line of sight to your intended target (which has to include holograms as they were writing rules to cover things that happened in the films)
These Q&A's with your sister are fantastic, loving the chemistry.
Great vid. Real genuine quality coming out.
its really nice to see your wife give her opinions in this video instead of just reading the questions :) !!!
You guys nailed the Kenobi villain question...It's a series now but there will be plenty of Inquisitors, and Vader!
Here's my ideas for villains for the Obi Wan Movie
-A force sensitive Tusken Raider
-A force sensitive group of Tusken Raiders
-Boba Fett
-Grand Inquisitor
-Jabba the Hutt
-A fallen Jedi
(Here's some joke ones)
-Darth Jar Jar
-The High Ground
-Old Age
-Uncle Owen
I find the concept of an R-rated Star Wars movie to be pretty fascinating, because Star Wars is a universe where there's basically endless possibilities for storytelling, and while it doesn't hurt anything to keep Star Wars PG/PG-13, going straight-up R could lead to some interesting possibilities. If they were to go that route, I'd say Shatterpoint would be an ideal choice. I mean, aside from Shatterpoint dealing with some of the uglier themes of war, you just couldn't do an R-rated Star Wars without Samuel L. Jackson :P
Why aren't y wings seen in the battle of coruscant
Rustyx99 good question. I assume the actually were there. We just didn't see them
Same could be said about the Z-95 headhunter, they were there in theory, just didn't see them on the big screen...
The same reason we never saw Interdictor-class cruisers in the Battle of Endor
I should be the main villain in my movie becaose of the high ground
Ewan Callister you do know that he does not know where I live or there would be a star destroyer on my back
Ewan Callister Vader thinks obi Wan is possibly dead and obi Wan knows that Vader is anakin
Ewan Callister you should read more star wars lore
Ewan Callister he heard about how Darth Vader killed Jedi on Kashyyyk from a gangster in mos eisley. He already knew Anakin called Darth Vader from the hologram in Revenge of the Sith
Ewan Callister And he didn't notice the old wizard going by the name of his old master living near the farm he spent his childhood in. What an idiot
How come in Episode 1 and 2 the battle droids have a more robotic voice but in th clone wars they a higher dumber sounding voice?
Cause it was supposed to be a show for kids
I think in the Clone Wars they explain it. B1 and B2 battle droids are different phases of the same model. One of the changes is in the voice. They're better suited to the role of security, and make poor soldiers. I think the B2 was a slight upgrade to make them better soldiers, but a side-effect of their design makes them "chatty".
Well, in RotS, the droids have very high-pitched voices. The reason the droids have high-pitched voices in TCW is to maintain continuity. And it gave us some honestly great comedy!
You two are literally relationship goals. Cute AND nerdy XD
What was your favorite new toy/piece of merchandise to come out of Force Friday II?
agree that Star Wars is a fantasy story. The forward in Battlefield Earth had a nice rundown on what makes the different fiction genres. For a story to be Science Fiction, even with suspended belief, there must be a chance for parts of the story to exist in the known realm of science.
As for a question, this is more of a fun comedy question. when Mel Brooks made Space Balls, George Lucas allowed for cross pollination to occur. As such, a couple of scenes and props used in/for Star Wars is in Space Balls. One of the easiest examples is the Millennial Falcon is parked in Space Balls. Does this make Space Balls canon? Just think it would be cool if Han Solo flew around in the Space Balls universe.
Tatooine and himself. You need no lightsaber wielding villain.
I think a young Ponda Baba should be showcased at some point stealing Old Ben's hubcaps or walking across his lawn (the only one on the planet). It would make his quick dismemberment in Episode IV make more sense.
I got the title question!!! Lol awesome!
What do you think of Snoke's "Mega"-Star Destroyer the "Supremacy"?
For the Obi-Wan Movie's villain I'd like an Imperial Moff (Grand Moff, Admiral, Grand Admiral?) anyone with a big sounding title, and have a Inquisitor as a side-villain or henchman, just as the Grand Inquisitor was a henchman for Grand Moff Tarkin. So we can get interesting villain scenes and have a Lightsaber duel every now and then if they wanted to include one, but still keep the growing empire as a real/new threat.
Was the Star Wars: The Clone Wars series considered canon when Legends was still the only timeline?
It's both canon and legends
yes
I think The Clone Wars should stay separate from Legends. The EU was its own thing and Disney Canon is its own thing. There are so maby inconsistencies found if The Clone Wars was in Legends Canon. Like in Legends and in The Clone Wars microseries Grievous is a totally different character with a different backstory than the one in The Clone Wars. I like Canon and Legends Grievous but I don't like mixing up their backstories and creating inconsistencies there. They should really just stay separate.
It was legends before disney canon existed but because of the inconsistencies with the karen traviss republic commando books with the mandolorian origins and the 2003 clone wars with how grievous got his raspy voice i dont consider it legends
In short, The Clone Wars changed a few details from the EU as it took priority in the canon but it was still open to using many elements from it. And some of the later books such as The Fate of the Jedi series took elements from the cartoon.
Back when The Clone Wars was around they wanted to be consistent with the Expanded Universe at first, but just decided to ignore some of it when they could. So, in the comics, Adi Gallia was killed by Grievous, but in the cartoon she was killed by Savage. In the comics, Aurra Sing was a failed Jedi Padawan who went on a long rampage killing Jedi and stealing their lightsabers. That origin was ignored in the cartoon and any connection she had to the Force ignored as well. And Even Piell died a different way in the books.
There were quite a few things The Clone Wars adapted from the EU though. Aside from a more light hearted personality they understood what Quinlan Vos can do. The planet Onderon along with the walled city of Iziz and the Beast Riders is taken right from Tales of the Jedi. The Nightsisters of Dathomir were from the EU, as was Maul's design from the non-canon Old Wounds comics. Also they wanted to bring Thrawn into season 2, Revan and Bane into season 3, and they had plans for the Yuuzhan Vong.
We see in Star Wars Bloodline that Luke and Leia know who their mother was so how did they find out that Padmé was their mom?
Kyle Hill mon mothma
Hot damn, Molly had a tough time with that question. Very endearing for you guys :)
can you imagine old ben sitting in his hutt and then randomly start choking and it's vader all of the way from the death star lol
I'd like to see a movie for Obi-Wan where the Emperor attempts to eradicate Obi-Wan by sending a bounty hunter after him, maybe Cad Bane or something. The only time we see Vader is in his discovery that the Emperor sent another to dispose of his rival/old-master and this disturbing lack of faith in Vader adding to the rage within him. The confrontation could tease the idea of Yoda also being hunted in the same way. I wouldn't mind if Kenobi left Tatooine but maybe never further than its moons Ghomrassen, Guermessa and Chenini.
I like the idea of the inquisitors as the villain but I also think it could be cool to have a bounty hunter as the villain. Imagine a movie about IG-88, Bossk, Dengar, or even Boba himself trying to hunt down Obi-Wan. Hell, it could be about Boba trying to get revenge for the death of his father (though maybe not because they're already making a boba movie.) Idk, I just like the idea of grounded movie on tattooine rather than Obi-Wan fighting some massive force-using threat.
Great insight all the time thank you and lol that out take I understand that feeling of saying something repeatedly especially when you say a word... Then go wait what's that word even mean it sound really weird now that I think about it
What happened to the 61 st infantry after the siege of insuyu Tor (sullest)?
Ok, Wait for a moment. Remember those pictures from Ashoka Tano in the water with the owl? The owl has been theorized to be the daughter, but also if you take from legends, The daughter, Water... The pool of knowledge...
If Korkie Kryze is Duchess Satine's nephew and the only sibling of Satine we know of is Bo-Katan, is it safe to assume that Korkie is Bo-Katan's son? And if so do you think he will appear in Rebels Season 4?
Is Biggs your favourite charters or just your favourit background charater
You know the answer.
#mustacheforever
Watching this on Thanksgiving 2021. Who would have known at the time it would be about 5 years later we’d see an Obi Wan show and not a movie.
I want to see a Commander Cody rescue/redemption arc in the Obi Wan movie. They had such a close relationship in the Clone Wars and to leave them with nothing but Cody's betrayal in RotS seems unfinished. Seeing some live-action flashbacks to the Clone Wars would be really awesome too.
If the main villain is Obi-Wan fighting his inner demons and we just see him sitting in his hut asleep for 2 hours, best movie ever.
Lol.
Do you think disney will ever make a story about jedha before rogue one? Like how chirriut became blind
Dude Obi-Wan's day to day struggle might prove to be a kind of villain on it's own. There's no shortage of struggles and villains that the writers can play with. I definitely want to see Obi-Wan struggle and eventual duel with A'Sharad Hett. I'll be really let down and frankly surprised if they don't include Hett.
Just bought the Phasma novel today, read the first chapter on the bus home. So far so good :-)
I would love for a sharad hett to be in the movie as a lightsaber wielding sand person
Love the outakes!
I have an Idea for the Obi-Wan Movie. How about Mace Windu beeing the Villain? Maybe he survived and found out about Luke, and now he wants to kill him before he becomes as bad as his father. It would be cool to see a Jedi becoming a Villain in an other way than simply joining the Sith. And Mace Windu was always a little bit on the dark side anyway, he wanted to kill Palpatine before he could become more dangerous, maybe he became even more desperate.
Sam Jackson wanted Mace to be alive and would certainly come back for the Role, and they even made a new Comic about Mace, so it could be true.
Those bloopers at the end though.
Alex, that shirt is awesome!
I have a different idea, perhaps the villain of the Obi Wan film could be Asharad Hett who in his quest to defeat the Sith by killing their servants a la an inquisitor ironically lets the darkness corrupt him and his clan of tuskens meet Obi Wan out in the dune seas of Tatooine as Hett explains his reasons and desires for the death of the empire(Obi Wan also wants the empire dead so this leads to emotional conflict as to what he should do)but he disagrees with Hett's methods but the tusken leader offers a bet to the old Jedi, a lightsaber duel and if Asharad wins they fight the empire immediately but if Obi Wan wins this plan goes nowhere and Hett is humiliated and subsequently killed by Obi Wan on his home planet.
Vader should have a parallel story to Obi Wan's - Hunting down the remaining Jedi throughout the galaxy and rising through the Empire. Obi-Wan's villain should be aging, and the feeling of guilt for not seeing what Anakin has become. I'd love if the movie had a Logan vibe to it.
I think the plot should be Obi-Wan protecting Luke and his family from Hutt water collectors (as we've seen before) but someone ends up getting a HoloVid of Kenobi and Obi-Wan ends up chasing him to protect his secret identity of a Jedi
The villain of the Kenobi movie should be a disillusioned Mace Windu.
If Kenobi was forced to kill one of the only living Jedi left (especially if it was one he was friends with) to protect Luke, it could be an amazing character moment.
What about Sharad Hett? He becomes Darth Krayt eventually and would be a great way to lay the foundations for later movies. Plus he is a complex character with an amazing backstory.
I want the Obi-Wan movie to be set before the Phantom Menace so we can see him and Qui-Gon doing their thing. Maybe he could be doing stuff with Duchess Satine and maybe we could have a B-plot with Sidious and his Master. Maybe the two plots will kind of mirror each other like Ventress and Ahsoka in the Clone Wars
I'm not very keen on the Kenobi Standalone film at all, but I'd love to see a Finn origin story. He's probably the one character who needs it the most. It's a great opportunity to show off the First Order trooper program, and go into further detail in what the First Order is supposed to be exactly.
I know it's a Military Junta-style government, but they could translate that easily to an audience in a Finn origin story. There has to be one experience that affects his mindset and demonstrates WHY he's so much more compassionate than the other stormtroopers, like a sort of mental "predecessor" to his ultimate defection.
The premise of the Obi-wan movie will be that he has to challenge someone to a philosophy debate.
Obi-wan: "It's over. I have the moral high ground."
Villain: "You under estimate my persuasiveness."
The book Kenobi had some alright villains simple villains. The book had some great inner dialogue of him facing his demons on what happened.
Maybe the ability force choke needs a face of whom to choke and a good background of where they are at that time like in season 4 of Arrow when Damian Dark did it to someone on the other side of the planet during a video chat.
I agree that the most logical villains are Tusken Raiders and Kenobi's own inner demons. However, I would love to see Ray Park reprise the role of Darth Maul!
I would say a new inquisitor instead of the ones for rebels. And maybe an appearance from maul??
Would you ever consider doing a trivia and easter egg video for the 2003 clone wars animated series?
I think a trip away from tat would be good for a movie, I think you can do a black saber movie on mandalor, with boba fett or another mandalorin. You can bring in a pointe lost love interest. Something that brings him away from his seclusion on tat may be by bounty hunters, Sent by a unknown mandalorin villain to recover a surviving Jedi, that forces Obi wan to face his past.
You two are the cutest thing of ever seen! 😱 congrats on the love ya cuties 🌌⛵️🐢
Jar Jar is the key to all this.
Question: In The Clone Wars, Dooku implies that he considered using Savage to overthrow his Master, telling him "We will be even more powerful than Lord Sidious. We shall rule the galaxy together, my apprentice." He seems to consider betrayal other times too. However, in the comic series, "Son of Dathomir", he seems 100% opposed to Maul's offer to help overthrow Sidious. Why do you think this is? Just a change of mindset similar to how Vader also swung back and forth on his loyalty (Lords of the Sith), that he just hates Maul, or that he was simply too scared? Thanks!
Do you think we should get a movie about the great jedi purge? I think it would be amazing and we could even have some more characters which would open up more comicas/books.
If there ever is a Vader film it would probably be based around those times.
Could you imagine a "Chiss invasion" story (possibly even a movie)? I think it would create a cool new "villain" with own comprehensible motives without the involvement of a overpowered force user, but still a big enough threat to rally the galaxy.
[SPOILER WARNING FOR THE THRAWN BOOK]
I could imagine a set-up being created in a followup book to Thrawn, when we will find out more about Elis time with the Chiss. Maybe even an old Thrawn/Eli duo returning to the galaxy to conquer it with the Chiss? I think it would be awesome.
I think falcon is a general term for birds of prey like the falcons of our world. Just like horses is a term for general equestrian-style animals, and the same with snakes and lizards.
What about "a'sharad hett" as the villain for the Obi Wan movie? Obi Wan did have to fight him in legends, and I think it would be extremely cool for them to set up Darth Kryat as a possibility in the future. Plus it would make for good inner conflict and plot, Obi Wan having to fight another jedi who has survived order 66.
Thanks for the cool vids and info, you also rekindled the old SW spark for me as an OT fan, but you two look very pale, treat yourselves to a week or two of a holiday sometimes, you certainly deserve it and keep up the good work!
You two are couple goals
Luke should be the villain in an Obi-wan movie.
Like, Obi-wan is trying to protect him, and he's constantly being put into harm's way by balancing not being noticed and saving Luke from crawling into a sarlacc pit at age 2, hooking up with the bad kids at age 12, etc.
Whatchu think?
I think they should either keep to the tuskan raider story were he fights the tuskan jedi or the one from the book were he fights with the tuskans to root out an evil man from some desert oasis
The Obi-Wan movie should just be Obi-Wan sitting in his hut 2 hours with a thousand yard stare and half transparant flashback around him lol
Instead of it being flashbacks related to Star Wars, it's nam.
Nam footage with poorl edited Clone Trooper helmets and laser effects while "Paint it Black" and "Hello Darkness my old friend" play on repeat
I think Darth Maul should return one last time in this flim. I know Maul died in rebels. But I think it would be pretty cool to see him one final time.
I don't know why I didn't ask this earlier, but when you played Assault on Naboo in Battlefront 2, was the DC-15a fully automatic or semi automatic (which would be movie/Clone wars accurate) ? Also, why did the conflict come back to Naboo?
Before Rogue One came out, I was sure the Death Troopers we're going to be other K2 droids.
Do you think your boy Biggs Darklighter will show up in Season 4 of Rebels? "This is Red 3 standing by!"
Unless Dave Filoni has plans for an animated version... Obi-Wan as an apprentice protecting Duchess Satine. Main Villain: Death Watch
Denae obi wan didnt know about death watch until clone wars im pretty sure
Who has more power in the empire ? Grand Admiral Thrawn or Grand Moff Tarkin?
Durge should be the villain!!!
Christopher Leung Oh my gosh yes please.
Christopher Leung As cool as that sounds, how would that even work?
Alex Greaney in the CANON obi wan one shot from marvel obi wan always has to protect the lars family from jabba, so simply put, jabba has enough and sends his best bounty hunter, durge. Also keep in mind this movie is about 15 yeare before the battle of yavin, so althouth boba is a good bounty hunter, he's no where close to being the best in the galaxy.
That is genius.
Are you going to or have you done a cannon timeline video. I seen some of the book and comic stuff you've done but want to know which order to read them in. I reading some books and comics atm and want to know where to go next cheers Nath
I think Star Wars Theory or Stupendous Wave did a video on force choke distance.
Why we don't see other inquisitors in Star Wars Rebels?
Borek Customs they're probably busy with other stuff
Or Palpatine really doesn't want to deal with a group of dark siders and intentionally made them small.
Borek Customs The ones we see are probably the last ones. All the others have most likely died in one way or another.
What is your favorite type of separatist droid type. Mine would be the commando droids.
Does Grand admiral Thrawn outrank admiral motti? Grand admiral is the highest rank in the navy but motti is chief of the navy so?
FRESH CUT!
I know that in ANH, TIE's were originally meant to be blue, but blue screen technology wasn't as advanced and they proved difficult to film, so were made grey. In the time of ESB and RotJ, they (along with the other TIE models) were able to be filmed in their originally intended blue colour. My question is, has there ever been an in universe reason why TIE's went from grey (even in rebels) to blue?
I think if they took the events of the Obiwan novel (now Legends) and re-canonised it as the movie, that would be pretty acceptable.
I wanna see obi-wan saving Luke a couple times in the film this may be interesting and I think the brilliant can be the taskan raiders or a bounty Hunter
Oh, it should be Joclad Danva!!! Wait, what? Didnt he die in Genosis. NO!.Hey Guys, Kyle Rowling here. Couple of cool things to know, Joclad was the 'Twin Saber Master' of the Jedi order. In fact he invented the style of using two sabers at once. And Count Dooku actually learned this system from a young Joclad. (Unfortunately all of the footage of me using two sabers, and even more importantly Dooku using them - he actually grabbed Obi-wans saber and attacked Anakin with two in the hanger fight. Anakin is so good he studied what Dooku was doing and then disarmed him and reattacked Dooku with two sabers, that's the bit you see. Dooku then also did the same thing when fighting Yoda - was cut from the final movie.) The other BIG note, Joclad didnt die!!!! Yes you see him on the ground, but he is only badly wounded. A week after the Genosis battle, Dooku sneaks back there to get some stuff he left behind when he left in a hurry.While he is there, he feels and incredible presence in the force. He goes looking and finds a badly hurt Joclad with no memory. Of course Dooku remembers him and how skilled and powerful Joclad is so he takes him and hides him and trains him. His own secret apprentice, just in case. Eventual he trains Joclad to the point of being able to throw Sith lightning. Then he decides to tell him the truth. That he was a Jedi, but they left him behind to die. Joclad remembers everything, but decides he owes the Jedi nothing, but that he will also neve be a Sith. So he leaves, to be the baddest dude in the universe, fully trained in both Jedi and Sith arts. (This story line was approved by George and Chris Lee and I always wanted to make a short film, but unfortunately Chris passed away. Maybe we can do it in anime one day. RIP Chris.)
So Joclad could be really pissed at Obi-wan, they may have been good friends in the Jedi Temple, and Joclad came to rescue Obi and Ani, and they left him behind. Bastards!!! Now Joclad wants revenge. If you like this this idea, make some noise people.
Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed this. Sincerely,
Kyle
Do you think Kyle Katarn,Jerec,Dessan and other Jedi academy characters will come to canon?
I think the Obi-Wan movie should be about him and Satine when they were young. It was established in season 2 of The Clone Wars that they kinda had a relationship going before they met again in Clone Wars.
Does time flow differently in hyperspace? Like, are there stories of individuals trapped in hyperspace and returning to a much older galaxy?
I know he's legends now and he was the enemy of Kyle Katarn, but i'd like to see Jerec return as the Enemy in the new Obi-Wan film, he was an awesome villain in the Jedi Knight games, and while he'd get some changes to fit in with the new canon, i'd still keep him a former Jedi archaeologist who was turned to the Dark side to stay alive in the wake of the Jedi Purge, and it i'll be someone who Obi-Wan knows from the Jedi Order, and hell, i'd flesh out the story with Jerec hunting an ancient Rakatan artifact or superweapon buried Tatooine, and flesh that out as well.
more info about the drones plz
