Cant disney afford to build more sets? Bloody tatoonie or whatever it is called is annoying and boring.
Actually, it's only boring if the writers make it such.

Tatooine has so much potential as does the whole underground world, sadly in live action, it's not been touched upon, maybe fleetingly in Mando only

There's lots they can do with Obi Wan, I mean he surely wasn't just scratching his arse and picking his nose, he's got to protect the baby Luke from enemies coming to kill him. He wasn't hiding out on Tatooine for nothing.

Yeah, but he was hiding, nobody knew where he was, nobody there knew who he was and nobody knew who Luke was. There’s not a lot they can do without re-writing what went before.

Hope they dont make the same mistake as book of BF and leave him on Tattooine for most of the series. Get him out and about the galaxy!!

A showdown between him and Vader makes me think they will shake up the locations.
Except obi wan was supposed to be in hiding wasnt he? After order 66 all jedi was meant to be killed. I doubt he'd go around the universe doing vigilante stuff

It's just gonna Obi-Wan beefing with jawas the entire time.
Jawa's nick his lightsaber and his robes so Ben Kenobi spends the series jogging about Mos Eisley in his duds searching for the little hooded bastards.

This explains why he is seen as a "strange old hermit" in A New Hope.

There is plenty that can be done and also, there is going to be a lot of dream sequences I reckon, which is where we will see Vader suited v Kenobi.

I expect Liam Neeson to appear in some form also.

I also expect it to cover multiple years nearing Rebels timeline.

It’s really sad and pathetic that the Disney writers can’t create their own stories and characters. Have to milk and destroy every last drop of the past.

Also, Rey is coming back for a rumored new Trilogy, and a new Jedi order were attachments are encouraged.
Excellent. Rey was my favourite character from the last 3 films and her story arc seemed far from finished.

Even though I dont like the prequels that much, I still got the goose bumps from Duel of Fates. Brilliant piece of music. Trailer looks awesome, and feels very Star Wars. Cant wait!

I haven't watched any Disney Wars since the trainwreck that was episode 8 bar the two Luke cameos in the mandalorian and book of boba fett, but I'll be watching this.

Mainly for Ewan and Hayden (who was a good Anakin).

I'm not getting too excited, though. This is Disney Wars, after all.

That's Disney Wars' speciality. I mean, according to them, Anakin isn't the chosen one anymore. He didn't bring balance to the force in the end.

Looks amazing as expected. It's going to be like the mandalorian but on steroids

Gonna love this. Kenobi is my favorite Star Wars character from the movies, by far.

Seems there is gonna be a lot of Inquisitors here. I just hope no Darth Vader though, it would cheapen A New Hope duel.

That trailer seems to tease Vader with the breathing at the end of it. They'll probably have him in somewhere.

I know that Christensen is gonna be here, but hoping it is flashbacks or at least not direct contact with old Ben.
I hope we get at least two episodes of Anakin and Padme picnicking in the field, rolling in the grass and talking about how much they dislike sand.

Anything else will be a failure.

That would be quite something with Natalie Portman's corpse!

I'm hoping Cameron Monaghan makes an appearance as Cal Kestis. It would tie nicely with the Fallen Order game.

I hope this explains the ultra slow duel between Obi and Darth in ANH.

I assume its less to do with geriartrism and more to do with force power cancelling each other out to the point of treacle motion.

I think there will be a couple of episodes primarily based on Vader and his new role within the empire.

Vader is box-office and this is the perfect time for Disney to reintroduce him.

Editing my own posts.
I’ll be really annoyed if Blorple Dax from the ‘Rebel Wing’ series doesn’t show up with at least six of his Asgard Beamers… it’ll be a huge missed opportunity.

Brilliant to put Duel of the Fates under the trailer. I'm hyped as feck now.
