That’s fair about the successes that Disney produced but there still is a ton of fans that can’t grasp what they loved as a kid, doesn’t always translate to adulthood(I’m not directing this towards you or anyone in particular, more so the general SW fan base). Most OT fans hated the PT and most OT & PT fans hate the ST. While most kids loved their trilogy as a kid, whichever era it was in. This is because it’s hard to like what we did as a kid 20 years later. I’m not going to be able to recapture the feeling I had as kid when I first saw the OT with anything new now that I’m older. That’s why it’s hard to watch SW fans hate on certain stuff, and compare it to the OT when this was written for an important moment with Leia and Han in RTJ:
That’s just awful in a key moment and there is more all over the OT. It’s ok tho because SW isn’t trying to be the God Father with its dialogue, just give us great moments here and there to help capture the audience.
And I’m not a hater for anyone that thinks Kenobi is lacking heavily because there certainly is areas where it is. In particular I don’t think Reva’s ending saved her overall story, she simply was not good imo. I don’t know if it was the actress or the way she was written or both. @mdmost has it right, the more Disney dips their toes in existing characters/story’s, the harder it’s going to be to get most of the SW fan base behind it.
