6 Thoughts on Obi-Wan Kenobi (Review)

I wasn’t as super-hyped about the Obi-Wan Kenobi TV show as other Star Wars fans seemed to be. I was just never a big Obi-Wan fan in general. But I still love Star Wars and I’m going to watch whatever shows they put out. More power to them. Now that Obi-Wan has come and gone, I felt it was all just generally fine. Nothing particularly special, as far as I’m concerned.

TV Show Rating: 7/10 – Good

In the end, I feel like Obi-Wan Kenobi was just a simple, straight forward adventure that this hermit Jedi gets to go on. It doesn’t really alter anything we know about the character or the era of the Star Wars timeline. I actually think it adds some unneeded complications that will need smoothing over in all our minds. But I was never bored, and there were definitely some cool moments. It’s definitely not a bad show. I just don’t think it was anything special.

Join me after the jump for my review and all my thoughts on the first(?) season of Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Harley Quinn Season 3 is Coming Next Month!

Harley Quinn is coming back, baby! I am a huge fan of the Harley Quinn cartoon show. It’s hilarious, raunchy, scary, sexy, well-made, well-acted and full of all sorts of good everything. It’s been a long wait since the end of season 2, so I’m super excited to share this trailer for season 3!

Looks great to me! The animation even looks better. Crisper? More detailed? Who knows! But everything looks great! And we’re gonna get appearances by Swamp Thing, the Court of Owls, Amanda Waller and, apparently, Nightwing! So awesome. I can’t wait for the new season…but I’m going to have to wait at least a month.

Harley Quinn season 3 comes out on July 28!

Doctor Strange, Animated

Our boy at Tell It Animated is back with some timely synergy, telling the animated history of Doctor Strange to coincide with the home release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Good times on this Monday!

I haven’t watched the movie on Disney+ yet, if only because there’s so much else to watch in the world. I saw it twice in theaters. This is a pretty good video, even though there aren’t that many Doctor Stranges.

But if Tell It Animated is going to movie synergy…when will I get my Robin suggestion made? Do Robin next!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 6/25/22

You know what happens when you don’t read comics you don’t like? You get a week like this one, where everything I read was a banger! Amazing Spider-Man finally stepped up to reveal the cleverness I knew was there, and any week with Nightwing is a good week.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Immortal X-Men #3 for a touching and suspenseful focus on Destiny, the character and the concept.

Not especially

Meanwhile, I continue to explore everything AppleTV+ has to offer. I’m enjoying Dickinson, and Foundation turned out to be pretty OK in the long run. I finished up Sniper Elite 5, which was great, and I plan to spend this weekend rocking some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge!

Comic Reviews: Amazing Spider-Man #4, Immortal X-Men #3, Nightwing #93 and X-Men #12.

Some Quality TV Shows Are Coming Back

It’s Friday. The weekend is almost upon us. Sometimes you just wanna be able to be calm and ease into not having to do anything. So with that in mind, how about some simple yet enjoyable TV show trailers?

Solar Opposites is a fun cartoon. All those aliens having wacky adventures and being irreverent. I know I enjoy the show.

Solar Opposites is coming back to Hulu on July 13.

Then we’ve got What We Do In The Shadows, which is always funny and always enjoyable. Last season left off with some pretty great cliffhangers, so we’ll see how those play out.

What We Do In The Shadows returns to FX on July 12.
