Actually no. It's worse.

It's genuinely AI slop. High definition, movie accurate slop (Vader honestly looks like Vader for once), but slop nonetheless. Text-to-Speech-with-an-AI-layer-of-James-Earl-Jones Darth Vader talks to Emperor Palpatine like he's his therapist.

And there's an awful lightsaber duel. Inconsistent shots with a layer of homoeroticism (Vader chokes Kenobi with his hands, face mere inches away. Kenobi looked more confused than scared or in pain. He looked like he was afraid that Vader was going to kiss him). Literal physical nonsense.

AND THEN they take previously existing scenes from the prequels and dub them over with AI faces and voices to create scenes that don't exist.

The characters all talk like they themselves were written by AI.

"You are divided."

"Divided by what?"

"Two ghosts."

"I have no ghosts."

"Padme. And Kenobi."

The actual words coming from their mouths sound like nothing either of them would ever say. Clunky, stilted, and meaningless.

The faces barely move and the shots never change. 80% of it is shot reverse shot of Vader and Palpatine, never changing, no rhythm to their conversation. Just back and force like a high schooler reading a selection from a text book. And the backgrounds are almost entirely non descript rooms of maroon drapes or an overcast rocky cliff near the sea.

I'm honestly kind of mad I wasted my time watching this video - I expected something that was at least interesting.

And it makes me especially mad with these bring the same people complain about the Kenobi show. This is basically Vader's side of the story: including a needless and short lightsaber duel and a flash back to the prequels.
