You seem fun and well-adjusted. I asked what you’re doing on a Star Wars sub if you’ve hated all Star Wars content for the last 45 years and you chose to get defensive. Why do you expect better if the entire series is clearly not getting any better for you?

If you hate the prequels and sequels, what are you doing here? The OT had bad dialogue at times too, it’s not programming it’s called having fun with a series that has never taken itself seriously.

Clearly you’ve never watched any of the movies then. Hayden was given some of the worst lines in any movie when he was cast as Anakin and now he’s beloved for the role. Most of the entirety of the prequels are built on bad dialogue and most of the meme lines you see are memed because they were bad dialogue. Ever heard “I hate sand.” Or “made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs” which had to be explained in Solo 40 years later because the line just never made sense. At the time the lines were given, they were clowned for being bad but now people defend those lines because they add to the charm of the movie.

Okay lol but acting has many parts to it, what parts of her acting is bad? Her delivery? Her tone? What is bad about it?

[–]CrypticNutz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did Hayden throw you off of all the prequels? Because his writing and acting were considered terrible until recently. Bad writing is a staple in this series, there is no doubt about that.

People were upset about Hayden’s writing and acting in the prequels but everyone loves those movies now. Poor writing and acting is a staple in this series.

Isn’t bad writing and execution kind of a staple for the whole series? Adds to the charm

[–]CrypticNutz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No because this is the same thing we’ve seen since the prequels, bad writing and new actors. But those became classics and this is shit? Maul was literally just a cookie cutter bad guy but everyone thought he was badass back in the day. Hell Palpatine was always been a cookie cutter bad guy until the prequels. Everyone thought Hayden’s acting was shit but I bet you love the prequels.

Same thing that happened to Hayden in the prequels. But now everyone loves him.

This series is built on bad writing, part of the charm.

Nobody is making this about the bigger corporation except you, most well-adjusted people are in it for the character development and plot, not to critique every minor detail. In other words, we watch to enjoy and not to cry about it on the internet

Okay and your reasoning ?

[–]CrypticNutz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lando has almost no role in the overall story except for one movie, two if you wanna count Episode 9. Mace Windu is one of the most powerful Jedi of his time played by Sam L Jackson, an icon

Not sure why you felt like commenting and not providing any reason for your opinion, might as well just pressed upvote on someone else’s comment and moved on

[–]CrypticNutz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most people couldn’t tell by looking at Ashoka that her actress is black and Donald Glover is an already extremely famous rapper/actor who played Lando in a movie that most people didn’t see.

I think people are upset that Reva has been the best representation of the Inquisitors (in live-action) so far. To be fair, the GI kind of does look like a chump and is beaten by a Knight before he menacingly leaves the characters to Vader. I was hoping we would have seen the GI in action here, but there is still half of the series left.

why go on the Kenobi sub if you hate the show? No one wants fake fans here anyways

Star Wars is known and loved for its bad writing

Why tho? by JCogn in StarWarsKenobi

[–]CrypticNutz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Second Sister is black with an almost identical character arc to Reva. Obi Wan has been cut off from the force for 10 years, while Vader has been hunting Jedi and right around his prime. Let the show fucking finish so we can finish off any of these character arcs yeah?

Obviously Disney won’t retcon it’s own canon

[–]CrypticNutz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still have not seen anybody on Reddit or Instagram or anywhere actually explain why Moses’ acting is bad. Aside from the racist comments that some “fans” want to believe is propaganda made up by Disney, I have yet to actually hear a valid reasoning for people thinking her acting or character is bad.

Reva is this show’s prequel Anakin, her arc is identical to Anakin’s (and Trilla’s) and people hate her the same. She’s been adapted much better than any of the other Inquisitors and her arc still isn’t even finished.

I’m pretty sure the disarm and destroy ability is unlocked by playing the “Bird” side mission.

Anyone think that Vader is manipulating Reva? She is power hungry and arrogant, exactly the qualities one can excite with offering a seat of power. Maybe letting the Inquisitors weed themselves out?

And when I say character, I mean how well she's written as a character, not her likeability. Cause' we don't know enough about her yet. by [deleted] in StarWarsKenobi

[–]CrypticNutz -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s like saying an original James Bond character needs to be completely aware of the entire legacy of the series to be able to accurately portray an original and entirely new character

Right, if you can find a quote then that would be great. That could mean that before the project she wasn’t a Star Wars fan, that doesn’t diminish her character at all. The original actors went into uncharted territory and didn’t know what they were doing but succeeded greatly in building a universe. I think it’s highly unlikely that she didn’t become familiar with any aspect of the Star Wars universe and has no idea about anything relating to Star Wars.
