They should have edited this scene into the 4K release. There are some funky things going on with the 'deep fake' version of Obiwan's face in a few scenes or at certain angles, but not enough to take away from the awesome edit or the amazing action and depth this version has of this fight. You can feel the rift between them; Vader's anger and vicious swings, Obiwan's skill and mastery of a lightsaber, coupled with his intimate knowledge of the 'man behind the mask'....It all comes to a head in this re-imagined scene. And when Vader heard Kenobi say "run, Luke, run..." from beyond, he suddenly realized that the words he spoke moments earlier "if you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine" were true. Kenobi had become powerful enough to communicate with the living from the netherworld of the Force. how was this possible? He realized that he didn't defeat Obi-Wan after all...at least, not truly. And now he is one with the Force! Who knows what powers and abilities that would grant him? For now Vader has to be content that his old Master is gone from the physical world, yet the satisfaction he so longed for to finally strike down the man who betrayed him all those years ago....Has not been satiated. He must walk away feeling unsatisfied and again for a second time, defeated, robbed and betrayed. Vader's only satisfaction is now he can present his enemy's lightsaber to his Master or keep it, perhaps? So he walks towards the crumpled, formless cloak of his former master and pulls the Jedi's lightsaber into his oustretched hands as he continues to walk away. Now he has other matters to attend to.

I just caught up and finished watching Boba Fett (a little late to the party, I know). Well, that was weird. The first half of the season certainly had its highlights but the pacing was honestly weird. The flashbacks didn't mesh that well with the "current day" segments. I mean, usually, if you use flashbacks, that's a narrative device because you want to time something or juxtaposition something but here, I didn't see that at all. Also, I felt they wanted to give Boba a bit of Godfather vibe ("I'll do you a favor first but then I own you" style) but it didn't quite work out in the scenario IMO. I feel like Boba simply was too soft and could have prevented most of the problems in the second half of the season if he had clamped down a bit harder in the first place. I realize they wanted to subvert expectation with this "softer" Boba Fett but they went a little too far in this rough gangster/western scenario IMO and it sometimes looked like he simply made stupid decisions (and honestly, often it was dumb luck that it still worked out enyway). And what was up with that google colored scooter gang? They were just ridiculous! I couldn't help but laugh at them every time they tried too hard to be cool on screen (which was every time they were on screen ). That said, some of the plot points were kinda cool, even in the first half. I liked pretty much everything about the Tuskans and it somewhat explains Boba's character changes but that might have tracked better if they simply told the story in order. Anyway, so that was the first half. The second half was when the show pivoted to pure 100% fan service. I don't mind fan service, it was certainly a lot of fun to watch but I do wonder if they didn't cram too much of it into those 3.5 hours there. I don't know, just felt like overkill. Also, the fact that Grogu was coming back was too obvious 2 episodes ahead of time. I mean, when Peli said that she put a dome over the astromech slot of the fighter for no reason ... come on! I think I wouldn't have brought Grogu back at all. IMO, the end of his arc at the end of Mando season 2 was nice and wrapped up. Bringing him back very much feels like pandering to the "he is so cute" crowd and story wise, he'd have been better placed with the Jedi. But whatever, the final scene had me laughing, I'll give 'em that. One question that came to mind: Is Mando now out of the bounty hunter business? I mean, he certainly won't transport any prisoners in that starfighter. Doesn't seem like the right ship for him. So yea, all in all, Boba Fett was ok, it wasn't quite as mind blowing as Mando anymore and it had some issues but still, I was well entertained. 7.5/10 sleeping Rancors. P.S.: Loved the theme song, watching the credits with the artwork, listening to that song was fun every time even when binging a few episodes.
