- Hello there!
This tribute was a tough one. I've been developing it since last summer on again off again, and I'm so glad I was able to finish it for you guys. Obi-Wan Kenobi...man, this character was something else. Honestly, if you were to ask me who the true hero of Star Wars was, I would definitely say Kenobi. He lost pretty much everything (his love, his master, his brother, and his community/friends) just like Anakin, but the only difference was that he never gave in to darkness. He persevered until the end. Because of him, Luke was able to redeem his father, The Chosen One, who then brought balance to the force. He may have failed his brother (Anakin), but he didn't fail his son.. thank you Obi-Wan... you were the true spark of hope the galaxy needed.
I hope this tribute has the high ground haha. I tried to balance (including the tone) as many things as possible in this tribute to give each of Obi-Wan's relationships a time to shine.
Thank you guys once again for all the love and support you've given me. Each comment that I've seen in my videos were the true source of my motivation to keep going with my edits (especially this one). Again, I hope you guys enjoy this tribute! May the Force be with you all, always.

Alec Guinness, having PTSD for events in a movie that would not be made for 30 years, the acting is incredible
Massively underrated comment
I'd actually attribute this one to the masterful editing, sound mixing, and music composition, with some credit to Alec Guinness for providing the original performance. Anyways, I just think that it doesn't really seem like he has PTSD in A New Hope, its mostly the editing
I Believe it was 20or 22 years after a new hope still amazing acting though

That's why when I watch the first 6 Star Wars I watch them in chronological order.
Watching the clone wars and then revenge of the sith makes the turn of Anakin hit different.

@@konradhomiak3700 It hits you harder. Same as Order 66. Anakin and Obi-Wan started to fight and I was already bawling my eyes out
The voice actor for Obi-Wan doesn't get nearly enough credit for portraying the character in Clone Wars as he deserves; he perfectly captured the energy that McGregor brought to the role
Very tru
JAT
I think the genius of his portrayal is in matching the cadence of McGregor but not trying to match his tone tone and accent perfectly. If he did it would sound forced, but he sounds totally comfortable in the role.
James Arnold Taylor
I thought for a couple years it was Ewan
People: "Truly good characters in fiction are boring."
Kenobi: "Hello there."
Star Wars Fans: General Kenobi.
Morally right characters can be interesting when pitted against reality the issue is they have to grow along the way obi wan is a prime example he did everything he was asked of and he always knew the force would guide his path
Obi Wan wasn't wholly good though. He believed in the Jedi Council no matter what. He is part of the reason why Anakin turned.
@@jackparker8602 Anakin turned because he was of weak will.
@@liviuganea4108 Anakin turned for a number of reasons, and not one of them was because he was weak of will. His strength of will and his refusal to give up is what won the day multiple times in the Clone Wars. However, his love for Padme allowed Palpatine to manipulate him because he was desperate to save her. That could happen to *anyone*. And the seeds of doubt regarding the Jedi, especially the Council, had long been sown, like the Order's betrayal of Ahsoka. Mix that with his history as a slave and the loss of his mother...
Obi Wan is certainly a better Jedi, but Anakin is not "of weak will".
"when i left you, i was but the learner, now *i* am the master"
"only a master OF GETTING CAUGHT"
Very funny
This made me laugh a little too hard.
Vader: *screams in asthmatic*
The both laugh, Vader remember how was good to be Obi Wan's friend and turn to the Light Side without dieing, together they remake the Jedi Order.
The End

It shows good leadership to take responsibility for such a thing.
Props to Alec Guiness for acting out a character he had never seen before with incredible emotion and accuracy.
He was not at all fond of that role. Seems he thought it beneath his repute.
And with Lucas's directing too.. "Faster and more intense" as the only direction.
Ewan mcgregor too
Ame Evarion I miss him
@@rswingman yeah, I lost all respect for sir alec guiness when he requested 1/4 of the total payout from the movie or he wouldn't do the role
Maul screaming Kenobi is just amazing voice acting.
100%
totally agree
Sam Witwer is amazing
KENOBEEEEEEEYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also when maul says “don’t be so certain” I can’t explain it, it’s just so amazing voice acting
Even when holding the sith who killed his master, killed his beloved, and risked his entire mission on tattoine.... Kenobi still was willing to forgive and hold Maul. That kind of strength is the sign of a true Jedi Master.
That or an old jedi who had nothing to do aside from watching the son of his former brother grow up, and remembering his tragic past
@@erwannthietart3602 makes me wish he had a kid of his own
7/12/21 - Still not wanting to take a life, but protecting the Chosen One is a far greater duty. There was no animosity in Obi-Wan's actions; just protecting the galaxy.
He not only forgave Maul, but he comforted Maul as he died.
@@cjhott7237 The line "He will avenge us" is deeper than people seem to notice, He knew that in the end they were all pawns. The evil he had committed to Obi Wan for revenge of what he did for him couldnt be forgiven but in the end it wasnt his will but rather the seduction from the sith. In the end Maul regrets his decisions and it wasnt the first time but in his last moments he was freed from hit hatred and Obi Wan would some day join him. But Luke would avenge them and their suffering finally being the end of the sith.
Just think that obi wan had to spent 19 years completely ALONE,we cannot imagine all those nights where he thought about that last conversation with anakin before vader,all those memories of him,satine,qui gon,all the nightmares of them dying in his arms again.the sadness for the losts of his jedi partners,the guilt for leting his lover die in front of him,the regret for not accomplishing his master's last wish ,the shame for not being with his brother when he needed him the most... all in his mind with no one to help him,yet he never gave up and stood like a jedi till the end of his days,where he died by the hand of who once was his padawan...his best friend...his brother.
I am not familiar with the EU, but Yoda does seem to tell him that Qui-Gon is still accessible through the force. I can only imagine that Obi Wan learnt how to reach out to him, and perhaps others, like Windu(?) over the years.
@@martin.ellingsen yes, in the last few episodes of S6 of The Clone Wars, Yoda begins to learn how to commune with the dead. This is reiterated at the end of Ep3 when Yoda tells Obi he has special training for him during his exile on Tatooine. We see the effects of this training when Obi speaks to Luke during the Trench Run in Ep4 and is a force ghost in 5 and 6.
So in short, yes, Obi wan, for some part of his exile, could commune with others who learned to keep their conscience after death, which if I'm not mistaken, would've just been Qui Gon at the time
@@karatewill75considering they technically communicate through the force hed also be able to communicate to Yoda if they both happened to be meditating at the same time, but considering theyd want to remain hidden its also possible they didnt communicate as to hide their presence in the force further
Darth Vader never killed obi Wan. He vanished as a force Ghost a Moment before Vader lightsaber was about to struck him. Darth Vader never killed obi Wan. He vanished as a force Ghost a Moment before Vader lightsaber was about to struck him.

@highrollerlion he choosen the Jedi order over love. Yes he deserves love and happiness but he chose path after the Clone Wars. Where he could have left Anakin's son at Tatoonie, but choose to protect him
He genuinely had probably the saddest life in Star Wars

@@YaBoyNick321 and his brother/best friend
@@zenomeurrens1762 True that almost forgot
Honestly every time I see Maul die in Obi-Wan’s arms it gets me, and that’s a cartoon of all things. The fact that Obi-Wan comforted Maul in his last moments of life despite all the pain and grief that Maul had inflicted on him is both heartbreaking and shows why Obi-Wan is a true Jedi. He had love for all things even if they’re his worst enemy, and in that I think Obi-Wan realised that Maul wasn’t his true enemy and that Sidious was the one that destroyed both of their lives and took everything from them, and despite how different their beliefs and views were, Obi-Wan couldn’t have related to anyone more than Maul. I can’t wait for the Kenobi series honestly.
7/12/21 - Well said. That short exchange between the two in the Tatooine desert in Rebels, made me appreciate Obi-Wan more than I ever gave him credit for.
He held Maul in his arms just like he held Qui-gon... just let that sink in...
And just think what may have happened if he had gone to hold Anakin too... God I love star wars.
@@TheEarlofBronze1 i love it so much from a simple idea to a whole universe full of depth and meaning. Truly enough t make a grown man cry
Maul's statement of "he will avenge us" was meant to include Obi wan as he realized they both were betrayed by trusted allies
I can't find a word to say
After everything Anakin did he still calls him a good friend
Because he was. He was the best a friend could be. Then Vader killed him...
@@caseypenk Even if it was largely a student/mentor relationship, there was definitely a strong bond of friendship between them
@@caseypenk I don't think Obi Wan can act that sarcastic with anyone, he loved Anakin
Not just that, even at the very end, when Maul ask him "is he truly the chosen one?" he still answer it as a yes. His hope and belief for Anakin was always there.
Arselonix Greywulf pretty sure he was talking about Luke Skywalker..

Luke: Why did you go out of your way to stay in Tatooine if you were once a Jedi?
Obi-Wan: Figured that the sand was a good way to keep someone away.
oh my god that was awsome saergsaegsa
Wouldn't Anakin's trauma from childhood slavery be more likely to keep him away?
Zakaria Ali Exactly that’s Obi-Wan gave Luke to the Lars family who lived in Tatooine because even as Darth Vader, Anakin’s past trauma as a slave in Tatooine still haunted him
Zakaria Ali it was a joke anyway
@@zakariaali8864 actually no, in canon Vader returned to Tattoine and murders Watto gruesomely. Great comic book
Sir Alec Guinness served in the Royal Navy in WW2, an enlisted man in ships patrolling the English Channel, which was an active combat zone all the way through 1944. What he would have most certainly seen and experienced made "PTSD" very easy to share, at least through expression, body language, and voice.
Lucas sorta had the back story in place, though he wasn't absolutely fixed on Anakin become Vader until Kasadan pressed him on it for Episode V. There was press material even at the time that revealed Obi Wan battling Vader around lava puts resulted in Vader going into the suit, so presumably Guineas had that as well, and perhaps remembered a horribly burned pilot, British or German, his ship fished out of the Channel...
In short, Obi wan has PTSD because Alec Guinness had PTSD.

Actually.. oh wait you mean in... oh ok
@@carterlarson6801 what was the point of your comment
The merging of General Kenobi with Old Ben’s voice into that line @ 7:33 is perfect!!!
I agree 100% Whether it was the 1st time I heard it or the 20th time… it hits perfectly
3:34 "As wise as Master Yoda" [insert clip of Obi Wan from Kenbobi Episode 6, raising all the rocks to pound Vader with]
3:36 "As powerful as Master Windu" [Clip of Obi Wan doing the leaping attack on Vader in Episode 6 slicing his helmet in half]
Episode 6 of the Show is the full Kenobi, that's when we see him at his strongest surpassing Yoda and Windu in that one fight.
Seeing this made me just realize something. Ben Kenobi says "I haven't gone by Obi-Wan since before you were born." On the face of it you think "wait, a few people called him Obi-Wan after Luke and Leia are born surely" but he said "I haven't gone by that"... what did he do right before Luke and Leia are born? He fought his best friend and left him more machine than man. In his mind that's when he stopped being Obi-Wan.
This comment 😭
Obi-Wan and Ankin died at roughly the same moment. Only to be reminded who they truly were by Luke Skywalker.
BRUH
Bro😢
bro he was on the run vader was killing everything that even farts the force. he was also there to make sure luke didnt fall into the hands of palpatine
"How did my father die?"
God that question is so powerful and awful
It's even harder when all he can say is "I defeated him"
He wassent very good at playing floor is lava
The answer is basically the prequels.
He tried it.
From a certain point of view.
"It takes strength to resist the dark side, only the weak embrace it" "those who oppose it are more powerful than you could possibly imagine" chills at that edit, omg.
It's doesn't matter how many times I come back to rewatch this, I am completely absorbed and fascinated. It brings back memories and evokes emotions. I plan on coming back many more times well into the future and I wish I can leave an additional "Like" every time that I do.

😂😂😂😂♥️♥️♥️💪🏼
🤣
So you know him?
Of course I do he’s me.
His story will never fail to move me. Every battle he won resulted in immense loss. He defeated Maul to lose his master and his lover. He defeated greivous to effectively strike a decisive war winning blow against the enemy only ti be betrayed by his troops and watch his order fall around him. He defeated Vader, only to lose Anakin. Finally, standing there in the Death Star, he gives a smirk to Luke; knowing it’s time to give up the battle in the name of winning the war. It’s beautiful.
The transition from “and those who appose it will be more powerful than you’ll ever be” and “more powerful than you could possibly imagine.” Is phenomenal
Obi wan lost everything:
- The master that taught and guided him
- The love that he held close to his heart
- The Padawan that always had his back
- The order that provided him a home and family
- The republic that gave him hope and a purpose
All he had left was the high ground yet he is invincible with it
Lost everything and never wavered.
The highest ground you can have.
I went from crying to laughing😭😭😂😂
Maul had the high ground,but obi wan still won because he always has the highest of the grounds
And his best friend
I think the real tragedy of Obi-Wan was that he deserved better. He played by the rules, he always strived to be better, to be kinder, to be wiser and he never let his friends down. And he lost everything he ever loved anyway.
The greatest Jedi who ever lived, the man who sacrificed all that he had, all for a reward of nothing.
Eddie Curtis Tragic from one point of view. Heroic and selfless from another.
I would say we was rewarded immortality by being one with the Force.
Eddie Curtis youre so right
Not nothing, he played his part and without him, there would be no chosen one, there would be no mentor, obi wan endlessly chose the light side no matter the cost. And with that selflessness he will live on forever.
Man well said! I am screen shotting this
Oh the feels. Obi Wan Kenobi is such a special character. I've known him since I was a small child myself, first as Alec Guiness, and then as Ewan MacGregor and in the book series Jedi Apprentice. To see him again as an adult in the Cone Wars and Kenobi... I can think of no other character whose story has continued through my life in this way. No other I've come to know in anything like the way I've come to know Obi Wan. He breaks my heart. There is really nothing else like it.
7:09 “ and the last thing I saw, were the eyes of a frighten boy who’s master had failed him”
The moment Luke mentioned the name "Obi-Wan", Kenobi's reaction went from "curiosity" to straight up "PTSD". That shows you how much he went through in his years as a Jedi.
There are alot of versions to these types of videos. This one's really good as a general summary of Kenobi's life. There is one titled "Obi wan has PTSD" which I found to be the best at illustrating his PTSD, check it out. :)
Ryan Saghir, Abdullah Karim, I also just watched "ObI Wan has PTSD", and I thought it was awesome, but I think this just has the edge - pity about the CGI scenes, but I can forgive them for such a wonderful telling of a much bigger picture
You gotta give it to Alec Guinness. Even without any knowledge or backstory, he still manages to convey the right emotions and feel to it.
Alec Guinness was amazing.
@@ryansaghir4786 Thank you soooo fucking much. That was a masterpiece!!!
When Luke first says “Obi Wan Kenobi” and the voices start, it’s absolutely spine chilling...
Really gives a perspective into the mind of Old Ben. It's almost like ptsd.
His actual facial expression suggests he did indeed have a PTSD flashback in that moment.
Totally agree. Now that was have most of his story as well, this is more amazing.
That’s why I watch these types of videos. To get chills
I’m not going to lie I almost cried when I heard that part
“How did my father die”
A question so complex, yet so simple
He’s my favorite Star Wars character. Always has been and will be.
Mine too
obi-wan has the most tragic story in the whole of starwars, and yet he never gave into the weakness of turning to the darkside. He is by far the best jedi that has ever existed and will ever exist
Depending on how you look at it, an argument could be made for Anakin having the most tragic story, but only from a certain point of view.
Anakin and obi wan are the most tradtic chararters
Tim Jones tbh the clone wars and order 66 were a tragedy for everyone that took part in the war except for Sideous.
The New Trilogy is a true tragedy
He isnt the most powerful or wise one, but he is a Jedi more than every one else.
This has made me realise that when Obi Wan said “goodbye, old friend” to Anakin at the spaceport before he heads to Utapau it’s the last time Obi Wan sees him before he becomes Vader.
Honestly, the prequels may have had glaring flaws but they also have so many amazing moments.
EDIT: Well, damn, that's a lot more likes than I was expecting.
I say it Everytime people try to compare the sequel trilogy to the prequels.. the prequels has a vision and a good story, the execution is just kind of poor.
and that's why George Lucas would be amazing at story boarding but never a writer.
I always have a little heartbreak when I hear that line
Skylor Karnitz Exactly, that’s what I tell people, and if you notice, esb, rotj and rots, regarded as the best films were in the originals not written by him, and in rots, he co-wrote it
Exactly what you said, the works of people like Filoni and Favreau are always going to be better than Luca’s, because they are storywriters who know what the fans want
@@nicograms Lucas knew what the fans wanted, he was just too lazy with his 4.05 billion to ever bother to care after the OT
pdot1123 True
"Remember my dear Obi Wan,i loved you always...i always will"
Damn,how Kenobi did not fall to the dark side in this moment is beyond me..
Truly the greatest Jedi Master ever
"I hate you."
"And I loved you."
This is the most moving response for me and describes Obi-Wan's strength so well. For as much as the prequel dialogues suck, I love these lines so much. He has suffered so much and still has the courage to chose love and compassion. Obi-Wan is hands-down the best character in Star Wars. Thank you for this video, it made me cry.
"Obi-Wan is a great mentor. As wise as master Yoda. As powerful as Master Windu." So true.
"I HATE CHUUUUUU"
Obiwan was a great mentor to Luke, but not the best to anakin. Anakin needed a father figure type mentor like qui gon would’ve been, instead obi wan was more like his best friend/ big brother.
@@mrdan523 he was more of a friend
@@zoomziller " ...I loved you"
😢😢😢
most true jedi of them all. I think wiser than yoda
"You can kill me, but you will never destroy me. It takes strength to resist the dark side. Only the weak embrace it"
"It is more powerful than you know..."
"And those who resist it are more powerful than you can imagine".
One of the best lines in all of star wars
FatLuckyPotato I disagree. One of the best lines in all of movie history
He actually said “than you’ll ever be” in Clone Wars.
That transition was beautiful
And shows the only three that resisted the dark side, Kenobi, Yoda and Luke..
This guy lost everything. His master, Satine, His padawan, his beloved jedi order and his home with the republic. If anyone understood about anakin’s struggle with loss, it was kenobi. Yet he never lost sight of who he was and his identity, he never betrayed anyone, he remained faithful to his friends and allies, even to the point of refusing to fight and kill the newly born sith ‘vader’. He was compassionate when he needed to, but quick to discipline in the hopes of building up and to encourage. He had an unbreakable will. He is a true jedi.
I love that when facing Maul for the second time, Obi Wan changes his classic stance to QuiGon's stance instead as a testament to his old master. Such a nice detail
Kenobi’s first words in A New Hope were “Hello there!” George Lucas was so visionary that he could reference a movie that wouldn’t come out for 28 years!!!
Victor Nag That’s the joke.
Woosh! That's the sound of the joke, flying over the heads of unsuspecting individuals.
Noah Mugan I still think, there is something greater, Lucas, was a visionary but something about this whole universe seems so real, that in my opinion, and obviously no chance of being true, I have my own conspiracy on GeOrGe Lucas
@Victor Nag actually he says hello there in revenge of the sith is cause general grevious says it first in clone wars
@Victor Nag no I'm sure these quotes were mentioned in the books/ comics b4 they were adapted into movies

Lots of comments complimenting Ewan, which he deserves, but I think James Arnold Taylor needs some recognition too cause damn he kills it every time.
Who else went straight to this video after the obiwant serie confirmed
Here
Obi-wan: Hello there
R2D2: General Kenobi, I've been expecting you.
R2D2 is a prequelmemer?
@@jameshughes7946 R2D2: "Do not cite the deep magic to me, witch. I was there when it was written."
R2D2: General Kenobi, you are an (b)old one
It rhymes like poetry
James Hughes more like
Obi wan: hello there
R2D2: chill bro the last time you said that to a droid he ended up dead and on fire
This. This is Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Take notes Disney. If you don’t do Kenobi right, then... prepare for what comes after.
I'm actually not really excited for it. Because I'm scared of what they might do to him ...
OfficialRonin better, still with problems but they can at least be overlooked more.
What? Twitter crying?
I have faith in them. If it’s anything like the Mandolorian it should be pretty good
Look on the bright side. The series is now canceled by Evil Sith Emperess Kennedy.
The way Obi-Wan says "and he was a good friend."... right in the feels.
Obi-Wan struggled with all the things that turned other Jedis to the dark side..
He lost a brother (Anakin) and his master... He loved and lost... he saw the failings of the council he saw the power the dark side offered... and still rejected it.
This and The Chosen One are genuine masterpieces that always makes me weep everytime I see them.
Darth maul killed his master and his love and obi wan held him like he did both of them when he died. Compassionate even to his enemies
Truly civilised
what series is that from?
@@andresmaldonado9429
Rebels
I still Want revenge but not for obi-wan but sidious
Yhea naaaahhhh- I would jave laughed my ass off... Im a petty person....
Obi Wan : I have risen above
He practically tries to warn Darth Maul that he has the high ground
Exactly
I am one with the high ground, and the high ground is with me...
Maul’s death scene in the animated show tops everything in the Obi Wan series.
Okay, time to update this with Obi Wan footage. Make us cry again.
The fact that Alec Guinness played this character with so much mystery is what allowed for the prequels/CW to happen.
The gravitas he brought to Ep. IV allowed the entire saga to happen IMHO
Honestly, the argument could be made that the entire franchise is founded on Alec Guinness' Obi-wan.
Absolute mad lad, absolute mad character.
The pain you can see in his eyes is palpable
Girls: you didn't cry at titanic? do you have emotions? did you ever cry?
me a man of intellect:
wise words
indeed
🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒
Uh
If you're such a man of intellect, could you please explain to me why you decided to spell "emotions" that way?
If Obi wan became a Sith he would be named Darth Hello there
Darth high ground
"Obi-Wan Kenobi"
*INSTANT VIETNAM FLASHBACKS*
Goes to show how much The Clone Wars saved the franchise.
Lol.
Topaz Beast what’s so funny? The Clone Wars was an amazing show. It might just be me being nostalgic, but it did so much for the Star Wars universe.
@@-tcbms-8849 Lol!
Topaz Beast what do you think is so funny?
Probably a Disney account
This fusing of the prequels, Clone Wars, and OT is amazing. This is a masterpiece.
And a little rebels

That ''No'' just destroys me every time.
:(
Had to come watch again after the trailer released today.
You were my brother, Anakin. I loved you.
Gets me every time.
Obi-Wan lost everything 😢
I litterally got a few tears
@@rswingman thats so tumblr
Seriously! Every single time!
Bro tears. :'(
The fact that Obi-Wan never turned to the dark side shows how strong he really is... he lost his master, his love and his best friend
His most precious attachments...
And he lost his order.
@@dravenocklost4253 jedi don't form attachments... that's why they failed anakin, the chosen one.
Bruh, Obi Wan wasn't a target of the most powerful sith lord ever
@@usernotfound342 Dooku offered multiple times, Kenobi's master was basically a grey Jedi, he had many opportunities to join the sith.
Puts a lot into perspective about Obi-Wan Kenobi how much he's truly lost and how much he truly been through and still to hold on to the Jedi way........... Looking forward to Kenobi when it comes out. I just want to be luke but as I've gotten older I realized that Kenobi was truly a badass.
I'm watching this again, of course I finally watched the trailer for his show
"I came to save you"
*Looks at chains* "Good Job."
LilWill love that lmao
"But what about Padme?"
*Looks at Padme climbing her pillar* "She seems to be on top of things."
@@akmayernick3722 Padme: ITS OVER ANAKIN AND OBI-WAN! I HAVENTHE HIGH GROUND!
You know, the Skywalker family may have stolen the spotlight, but I honestly think Obi-Wan is even more legendary than they are.
Agreed
Yup. Ordinary man who defeated the most powerful being, then stuck to his duties and conscience.
Elanor The Fair lol I think Quai Gon stole it from him first after all even in death he still managed to save the important pieces to end the war
Truth
A real leader ask no recognition... People like that are the most lonely...
So respect them even if its just a well written character. Because behind each make believe character lies a real one.
Obi-wan was so dedicated to the Jedi Order.
Even if it meant saving the galaxy from the Rise of Darth Vader.
He didn't kill Anakin because he had disarmed him, making him a unarmed man.
Jedis never kill unaramed men.
At least he died being what he loved even through his toughest time, but at least obi wan character now rests with his master and his lover
This made me cry. Seeing Obi-Wan hold Darth Maul and treat him with so much dignity, as he died in his arms...it speaks to me alot.
especially considering darth maul killed his master and his lover, and the mirroring of him holding not only his loved ones but those he despises with the same compassion is amazing, makes me want to go watch rebels.
It takes true strength to overcome hate and anger and stay true to your self. While not the most powerful, he was one of the most respected throughout history.
@@fessy4 To be great doesn't take money, power, or fame. Compassion, and kindness in one's actions is what makes someone great. Kenobi is great.
@@fessy4 especially if you look carefully, the way he held his old nemesis, it resembles just like when he held Qui-Gon in his final moments. Even spoke of the chosen one.
This is probably the 10th time watching and it still makes me cry.
I've watched this like 10 times and I never stop smiling when we hear James Arnold Taylor transition to Alec Guinness saying "those who oppose it are more powerful than you can possibly imagine".
Chills every time
It’s amazing that editing, I love that part so much, such an amazing example of strength, patience and love.

LITERALLY
This is Master Obi Wan Kenobi. I regret to report that both our Jedi Order and the Republic, have fallen with a dark shadow of the Empire rising to take their place. This message is a warning and a reminder for any surviving Jedi. Trust in The Force. Do not return to the Temple…that time has past. And our future is uncertain. We will each be challenged. Our trust. Our faith. Our friendships. But we must persevere. And in time, a new hope will emerge. May the Force be with you, always.
1:54 - 2:06 F*CKIN CHILLS….
I keep replaying it over and over!
Also, the parallel at 3:38 made me ugly cry...!
🌟 *I just realized that Kenobi and Anakin life stories mirror each other.*
Hmm... 🤔
King Aragorn II Yeah, it’s pretty cool. One fell to the dark and was later redeemed by the light, while the other lived his entire life trying to preserve the light that would redeem his friend.
The juxtaposition is what makes their relationship so compelling. Anakin and Obi had all the same choices. But they chose differently.
right, the both are tragedies.....
They both had the same problems and chose different ways , obi wan and anakin both die on musafar , then reunited in the force and saved one another
Damn
U can really believe that
Ewan's Obiwan is actually the younger version of Alec's
That was perfect casting.
@@admiralsquatbar127 it was
What if I told you they are waiting till Ewan hits a perfect age to play Old Ben Kenobi?
@@noisemarine561
*mind explosion*
@@RothGunn
Just a theory
Kenobi lost both his master the love of his life and his brother but still never turned to the dark side. His is truly the greatest Jedi
we are all here for the same reason. May cant come soon enough.
