No Whammies!!
The title theme sounds almost identical to the Spider-Man PS4 main motif. I had to hop on IMDb and see if Paesano scored this shyt...He didn't but John Legend Williams did.

When I heard Obi-Wan say that he "will watch over the child," in the opening montage, I had an epiphany. Obi-Wan, a Jedi, who helped to save baby Luke, will watch over and eventually "train" Luke in the ways of the Force. Yoda would later almost complete Luke's Jedi training.

Fast forward a lil bit and we will have Din Djarin, a Mandalorian, save baby Grogu. He will watch over the child, as a Mandalorian foundling. They become a clan of two. However, Baby Yoda must train in the ways of the Force with Luke Skywalker. If you've seen The Book of Boba Fett, then you know that Grogu does not finish his training with Luke, a la Luke not finishing his training with Yoda. He returns to save his family and friends, which is exactly what Grogu does. Grogu wanted to go back to his pops but he was still putting work on when he got back putting Rancors to sleep and shyt.

Grogu is the Luke Skywalker of the new generation. His upbringing parallels Luke's. When you think of it that way, him training with Luke was a passing of the torch. Luke, who was a Jedi, trained by Yoda, then gets to train a member of Yoda's species. Only, what think is a Jedi to be, is actually The Mandalorian.

As an aside, Grogu is the titular Mandalorian. His origin also perfectly parallel's Din Djarin's. We see young Din hiding behind the doors of a bulkhead. Droids attack. They open the doors and are about to smoke him. A Mandalorian descends and drops the droid. The Mandalorian then extends his hand as does Din. He'll go on to become a Mandalorian.

Young Grogu is found "hiding" behind his pram doors. The doors open to reveal a droid about to terminate him. A Mandalorian, Din Djarin, drops the droid. He reaches his hand out to Grogu, who reaches back. You know the rest. Everything comes back around. This is way.

Interesting. Too bad the sequel trilogy exists, it makes sense that Grogu is the new Luke...but he was nowhere to be found in the future we have already seen. I wonder what they're going to say he was doing during that time period? Is he off in some other part of the galaxy fighting some threat that the protagonists of the Sequel trilogy aren't even aware of? ( I really wish those movies didn't exist :mjcry:)

In the original and prequel trilogy Obi Wan detest blasters, but in this show he uses a blaster..
I wonder if that was done on purpose or the writers didn't notice

He doesn't detest blasters, he says that lightsabers are a weapon from a more "civilized" time.
Remember when he killed Grevious with a blaster and commented that it was "uncivilized?"

I actually think that Obi Wan should NOT be openly keeping a lightsaber on his belt. They're not doing a great job in hiding the fact that he's carrying a jedi weapon. He should be using more blasters (and that 'Star Wars Kung Fu' he was doing) in order to better hide the fact that he's a Force user. My biggest fault with the show is that Obi Wan is drawing WAY too much attention to himself.

I could be off cuz I'm only in the first 10 minutes of episode 1, but they showed those lil younglings in the beginning of the episode; one of them was a lil black girl. The Third Sister is also a sister. In the saloon, when the Grand Inquisitor says that there is a Jedi hiding in this saloon, the camera is on the third sister. Then we hear that she has a fixation with Kenobi, who was Anakin's master. Anakin, of course was executing younglings as per Order 66. He prolly killed a bunch of that lil girl's friends. So I believe that young Jedi brehette is now this Third Sister seeking vengeance against Obi-Wan for how he "failed" the Jedi Order.

The actors portrayed it like they detest blasters

Honestly as a fan I love the new content but all this show does is introduce a plethora of continuity errors. I asked this on Twitter…



But that’s just one of many things. I honestly just watch and try not to overthink it.

Obiwan hasn’t been practicing the force at all just in case he get ran up on? Mace would’ve had that whole planet jumping.
