I felt kinda bored for the first 75% of the episode. It was just fighting. The last 25% redeemed it. Baylen was great, and Hayden showing up made me incredibly happy. Although his de-aging distracted me a little.
Yeah my wife was very distracted by it as well. I am excited to see what happens with Anakin!
Ngl, I teared up a bit seeing Hayden.
Agree on the de-aging. I don’t think it was necessary or done well enough.
I think the de-aging while imperfect was better than the lack of it in Kenobi
Not sure it’s apples to apples though.
I don’t think that Hayden looks like he’s aged as much as Ewan did, and Anakin lived a long time before dying, so an aged Anakin makes a lot of sense where Kenobi should have looked a lot younger in his show.
It can also be fixed in a few years. After all, Star Wars is notorious for re-releases. Fixing up de-aging would be a good way to do this.
