The legend of Reva: How a youngling Jedi joined the Inquisition and killed countless Jedi, all to get revenge on a man for killing Jedi.

"It's literally the only way Sith get promoted" lol that's so damn true.

So Reva's motivation is: she blames a guy for not stopping the massacre of her Jedi friends by his apprentice cause he was too busy riding a lizard and chasing a four-armed robot driving a unicycle, so she joins a group of Jedi killers where she spends years killing Jedi, torturing children and civilians so she can kill that guy for killing Jedi and that way get revenge on the guy that trained the guy that killed the Jedi. When that doesn't work she goes off to murder a child on a random planet. She changes her mind so all the years of war crimes are instantly forgiven. I bet that woman whose hand she just chopped off to prove a point would just love that. And, she killed Wade, ffs. I'm told grown human beings wrote this stuff.

The line “looks bad for a movie but good for a TV show” is exactly how I feel about all the Disney+ shows so far lol

"Disney turned the franchise into fifa with lightsabers." This hit home hard🤣

Surprised there was no commentary about how both Riva and the other inquisitor dude straight took light sabers through the chest and left for dead but miraculously walked it off like no big deal. 🤷🏻‍♂️

"With more sass than Carrie Fisher if she were actually born into Royalty" That line is pure genius.

My favorite part of the show was when Obi Wan looked into the camera and said “It’s Kenobin Time!”

I'm just so glad for Hayden Christensen. He signed onto Star Wars to play Vader, and he really didn't get that chance in full until now.

Its nice to see that fans (even Screen Junkies) are finally giving Hayden Christensen the respect he deserves after they all crucified him for his performance in the prequels when in fact the blame goes to Lucas' writing

Cant believe Wade didn’t get a mention. His death was so emotional

Obi Wan proved to me that people will ignore plot holes, bad writing, messing up canon, etc simply because the Star Wars label is slapped on it

If Star Wars has taught me anything it's that you should never blame the actors but the directors.

I like how Inquisitors basically have the skill level to murder children, burnt out jedi, and civilians and yet Reva thought she could actually go up against the dude who has the all time record for killing Jedi. At 5:28 she realizes what a grave error this was.

"What I got you gotta give it to a Reva" killed me. Never change guys. You just made a shitty day a lot better, thank you

The problem with this show was that we know all of the main characters survive, and they just didn't give the original characters time to make us care about them. The result was that there were 6 episodes with literally no stakes in them and basically just explaining some backstories and lore that didn't really needed to be explained. Also creating some hilarious time and continuity errors.

That "Ben - Her" joke is pretty clever. Love it

Ewan McGregor keeping up the trend of being the best part of any Star Wars project he’s in.

My biggest issue with the series is how it didn’t have any stakes. We already know the fate of the characters from the OT, and the show didn’t do a good enough job at making me care about the new characters like Reva. Because of that, all of the times it tried to build tension just fell flat and felt kind of ridiculous.

This was a super honest Honest Trailer, that went more for honesty than humor. I appreciate that

I had to laugh during the scene with Reva: "Have I become him?" Obi-Wans answer probably should have been: "Depends on how many Younglings YOU'VE killed over the years." (Nothing like getting revenge on a mass murderer by becoming one yourself.)

Qui Gonn has always been in this honest trailer, we just weren't ready to see 👀

Ok you got me, lol. "And the one lesson Disney can't seem to learn"... [Senator Organa]: "It's the past. Be done with it" LMFAO! Thanks guys. Great vid.

After watching Marvels “What if?” I’m kinda interested what a Star Wars one would look like. What kinda episodes do y’all think they would make? For example “ what if Qui-Gon trained Anakin?”

5:20 - Her plan was dumber than that: She planed to get revenge on Anakin *for killing the other Jedi* by... KILLING JEDI FOR HIM!? Ok, Reeva! Moral compass: DEACTIVATED! 😂

If there’s anything we learned from this show…lightsabers are harmless now….unless being used to cut through blast doors

Just like the younglings, Honest Trailers never get old

Hayden's acting was both great and terrible in the prequels but I do think it's mostly due to the script and bad directing. One thing he was always able to do without fail was portray a hell of a lot of emotion through his eyes and hold scenes with nothing but a stare.

"You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker, I did". Honestly the best scene in the whole series

Man I burst out laughing when he said "and the next nine years are gonna suck even more"....got everybody on the train looking at me now. Thanks Screen Junkies.😂😂😂

This was a solid one ! Ben, Her killed me at the end. Well done HT.

I loved the part when Obi-Wan said “I Quied when you were Gon” when Qui Gons force ghost appeared

I didn't even notice the silliness of Obi-Wan asking Leia how old she is. I guess that's what I get for only half-paying attention.

I think they missed a huge opportunity when young Leia asked Obi-wan why she should trust him. He should have answered “Because I’m your only hope.” Would have turned that “Help me, Obi-wan Kenobi. You’re my only hope.” recording into a cute in-joke between them.

Based on Luke and Leia's presumed age of 10, the events of A New Hope take place 7-10 years after this show. Ewan McGregor, born 1971, was 50-51 when this show was filmed, meaning his character will be 57-61 by the time the events of A New Hope take place. Sir Alec Guiness, born 1914, was 62-63 when A New Hope (which came out in 1977) was filmed. Short version - McGregor is the correct age to portray Obi Wan at this point in the timeline.

Reva’s forced “redemption” via changing her mind about killing Luke (what about all the other kids and fellow force users you killed when you supposedly hate Vader for killing kids and fellow force users??) gave me WandaVision “they’ll never know what you sacrificed for them” twisted morality vibes.

The "I don't like sand" quote was on point! I keep forgetting that epic voice guy is, ya know, an epic voice actor.

I was waiting for you to say how dark the episodes were. Like for real, sometimes we couldn't tell whether it was Obi-Wan or the battle for Winterfell we were watching.

Fun fact one of the Jedi's in those pods is a master of Asoka. They had a whole arc together where he teaches her patience. So that could easily be something you see in the future. If Asoka knew he was down there she would go save him. He was one of the only Jedi with a white light saber like Asoka, meaning he had more neutral views of the force then all other Jedi.

The 40 yr old Padawan scene was a bit unsettling but still cool

Considering the original trilogy, there’s something so right about the fact that even though it was Hayden in the suit they still got James Earl Jones to do the voice.

When talking about the harassment of Moses he said "modern star wars fandom". It's not a modern thing, it has been around for many years like the actors of Anakin and Jar Jar getting bullied online. But now finally we have enough people calling out this behaviour (about time). Also I'm pretty sure thats less than 0.1% of the actual fandom. It should be called out but calling it "the fandom" makes it seem like 50% of us are like this.

"the one lesson Disney can't afford to learn" PREACH

the line "This time it's going to take more than killing me to kill me." cracked me up! so appropriate for this trailer!!!!!

Reva stabs the Grand Inquisitor through the chest, walks away, he lives. Darth Vader stabs Reva through the chest, walks away, she lives. Obi-Wan slashes Darth Vader in the back and face, walks away, he lives.

“Don’t bully Moses Ingram” Proceeds to mock her acting 2 seconds later 😂

Honestly the last fight scene was really infuriating to me- a huge part of whole show is about anakin and bens relationship- when they meet and are about to start fighting there’s Hardly any dialogue at all. And then it makes you even more confused about the force. Even yoda and obi wan in the prequels couldn’t start a ‘rock storm’ or whatever that was. Why is ben all of the sudden able to do that? Also obi wan could hardly use the force just days before that. And then he defeats darth Vader (which shouldn’t be possible given all his years of being inactive) and then he just walks away. WTF??? Why didn’t he finish him off? Absolutely no explanation is given why he didn’t finish him off at all. That’s just one plot hole out of many infuriating ones in the show

Being a Star Wars fan is like being in an abusive relationship

After watching this series it made me appreciate the Star Wars Prequel trilogy a lot more than ever.

Obi wan memes never gets old just like those younglings

"or forgotten how twins work" That line. LOL

I’m sorry but @ 3:32 the ‘7th senior year at the academy’ line just killed me 🤣🤣

2:10 Killed me because it’s really one of the few tropes that’s been overused but it really does work every time 😂😂

Watching the prequels dub in other languages is actually a great experience it fix Soo much of the bad lines or delivers

Forgot how twins work.🤣 Obi-Wan to Leia "How old are you?"

My favorite part of these honest trailers is the starring section and they've really outdone themselves this time with "Cool-Male Non-Jedi" for Kumail Nanjiani

The last episode really choked me up seeing how heartbroken Kenobi was seeing that Anakin is now Vader. Both Ewan and Hayden really did a great job.

7th senior year Jedi academy, bless ur heart for that comment. 😆

"Ben, Her" good lord you guys are absolutely amazing haha keep them coming

Obi-Wan isn't used to having someone with an equal amount of sass that he does.

I *totally* wasn't expecting Doctor Sleep to be amongst the "grumpy warrior protects cute, sassy kid" series but I'm glad it was. No wonder Ewan and Vivien made the dynamic work so well! 😆

Solid review. Makes fun of the dumb things, while also highlighting the few good things.

The “LOUD quiet LOUD” school of villainy….the easiest way to show the character is unhinged 😅

"Follow along on a celibate, religious mans new mission: stare at a 10 year old boy all day." Godamn that's a burn 🤣🤣🤣

Show was a missed opportunity to show more of Obi and Vaders internal and external struggles. Too much emphasis was put on other characters

😂 I first thought he said, Disney turned the franchise into fecal with lightsabers.

This show needed Jon Favreau The whole franchise needs him The amazing job he did with The Mandalorian proves he's the right one to save Star Wars

“Lots of people go to Jedi training for seven years.” “Yes they do, they’re called masters.”

Reva's only contribution to the series was teleporting everywhere where she was needed. She has developed force teleportation

"cool male non jedi" doesn't get enough appreciation

😂😂this literally has me in tears and coughing up a storm i'm laughing so hard. freakin hilarious 😭😭💀💀✌🏽

That weird moment where Obi-Wan saying “Hello there” was the highlight of the series

"Don't ask questions, just consume product and get excited for next product" is the basis of this show.

Appreciated hearing Honest Trailer Guy apply his voice to quotes from the last two films I've seen there at the end. (a multiverse movie double feature!)

lol bruuuhhhh....Every single one of your videos is TOO spot on

-The one lesson Disney needs to learn. Honest Trailers deserving the Honest

Obi Wan is an example of why you should use sunscreen

Hey you forgot to say something about Qui-Gon at the end showing up and saying he's always been there lol.

When my mom saw Riva she made a bet with me that Disney would give her a redemption arc and that she would not stay bad 😅

“Problem Child” for Leia + The shot you guys chose of Leia looking sus was perfect lmao

"Grumpy warrior gets a cute, sassy kid to safety". An underrated trope that still holds up well since Aliens (1986).

Absolutely love this

You killed it. I stumbled upon this video don't watch this channel. But that was great! 👌👏👏

Enforced Method Acting: Obi-Wan's sheer terror upon encountering Darth Vader face-to-face in Part III was more than just acting. Ewan McGregor admitted in interviews that seeing Hayden Christensen in full costume walking straight towards him legitimately scared him, which added to Obi-Wan's panicked demeanor while fighting him.

They didn’t rip on the fact that little child, who runs slower than a snail, escaped 3 assassins?

Bwahaha! This is definitely in my top 3 Honest Trailers! 🤣🤣🤣❤️

"😆😆😆 'Gets moved to another castle.' 🎮🤣😂😂 That's golden! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽" (-James)

1:27 superspeed, was that a THING? wow, never knew

0:18 “FFIA with lightsabers”

4:28 rip the cool old jedi

"and forgotten how twins work" lmaoo

Would love an Honest Trailer for “Everything Everywhere All at Once”! Favorite movie of the year! 🤩

The "Grandfather maybe" line sticks out so weird to me. Ewan McGregor is younger than Smits who is playing her father. Also, I don't know what is was most specifically, I haven't seen other performances from her. But, the Reva character suffered from a combo of bad writing, directing and acting. Tho that still never justifies attacking the actor, they didn't make the show... Not that you should attack those people either... Or anyone at all, its just a TV show... Gods the internet sucks these days.

Not being able to forget the joy I felt when watching Star Wars Episode I in theaters makes this hurt all the more.

"Fifa with lightsabers" might be the greatest metaphor I've ever heard. Fkin 10/10!

What exactly did Reva think Vader was focused on while she was sneaking up behind him? In fact, can anyone tell WTF Reva was 'thinking' at any point in the entire series?

"Ben, Her" Ok I can't stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣

"BEN, HER." Ok, that was clever. Well played.

One of your better videos! Jam packed with hilarity!

This series was hard to get through. It made absolutely no sense. So, they find out organa knows where Kenobi is so they... Kidnap Leia? It's an imperial controlled planet, just arrest him and use the force interrogation that the show makes explicitly clear you have. Vader rips a transport out of the sky, tears it apart, and then just stares at the actual transport flies away. Doesn't even try to stop it. Reva then tries to stab Vader in the back, so Vader fights her. But instead of just choking her and getting it over with so he can chase Kenobi, he intentionally draws out the fight, stabs her, then doesn't finish her off for some reason? He had no problem murdering random civilians for no reason the day before, but the person who just tried to kill him? Nah He chases down Kenobi, buries him in rocks, and just kinda leaves? You can't sense he's still alive down there? The force seems pretty good about telling people when someone is dead. You don't wanna crush the rubble down some more just to be safe? So Kenobi gets out because he remembers he's in more movies after this, and fights some more. He beats Vader, and finally accepts that Anakin is truly gone. And with this revelation, he promptly leaves and doesn't kill the genocidal maniac laying on the ground in front of him. Probably because he remembers that Vader is also in more movies after this. And so the series ends. Leia is now a sassy kid on alderan, ready to become a senator. Kenobi is a space hermit watching a young boy. Vader is still a genocidal monster. So basically nothing important has changed since episode 3 set the status quo for episode 4. So why should I care about any of this?
