We pitted Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen against each other to argue over some of the internets biggest debates.
We find out if they think the Star Wars prequels were underrated, if they believe Darth Vader is the best villain in movie history and if they think the Star Wars universe and their fanbase is the best.
Obi-Wan Kenobi debuts exclusively on Disney+ from 27th May.

I love how when Hayden says "Thomas" and Ewan's face lights up like hes right back in the moment. Respect for remembering his name as well. I'm sure there was a lot of crew on set and to remember someones name especially 20 years later shows how the actors respected everyone on the crew.

It's so wholesome that Hayden remembered Thomas and Ewan's face instantly lights up. It's a reminder that the actors and director(s) are only the most visible members of a production and the people who work tirelessly behind the scenes are the ones that make the production work.

@@mataloce the 3rd movie the only one that focuses on actual character development with a more solid story. The third movie was decent at best. Mediocre by majority. That being the only one that knows how to actually be a film doesn’t mean the other two were any good. Hayden shined in that last one cause 1, he’s a great actor. Multiple other films prove this and 2. It was actually a decent script, not great, not good, not the worst, but decent.

It was funny how much was said about him, in those Ahsoka scenes. Dont get me wrong, I never watched the cartoons, so my scope of their relationship is extremely limited. In addition to not really being the target "fanbase" for Star Wars. However, showing him being both compassionate and hard on her... all of it. Showing both his affection for her, but also that he's willing to drive the lesson. Like damn, what an awesome mentor. Even his movements, where he was blending both, what he used when he was young, but also retaining what he utilized as Darth Vader, blending between the two, seamlessly and dispatching someone like Ahsoka, without actually trying. Both examples kind of showing that in death, it isnt whether he is Anakin of Darth Vader... that he's both. And maybe that's ok... seemingly having absorbed both of those identities into his being. Instead of exalting one and demonizing the other. Where so much was conveyed in those short scenes and Hayden pulled them off flawlessly.

@@Christopher-md7tf It's a somewhat coherent story. But can you imagine you didn't know Anakin was supposed to become Darth Vader, how absolutely out of the blue that would have been? His fall made 0 sense because of how poorly told it was. Going from being conflicted about killing a friend of his to murdering a bunch of children and then trying to kill his wife in the span of a couple minutes was beyond jarring. That's the key point of the trilogy's arc and it completely flubbed it. I can name countless other structural issues beyond that one, too. At least the sequels had fun characters, relationships, and dialogue. I just found nothing about the prequels at all redeeming.

The fact Hayden came up with the name of the lightsaber guy from 20 years ago, calling it immediately without the conversation even needing that info in the first regard, but Hayden still took decision to say it! Even Ewan was surprised. And then the fact how Hayden reacts when Ewan talks of the audience voice not being loud back then and barely adds anything to the convo and just lets Ewan keep speaking, not arguing with him, but also not agreeing. Jeez, you can feel it was not a happy time for him. And then the last fact, but maybe the most important one, Hayden was the sole reason I got into Star Wars at all (which original trilogy failed to do). I just saw Anakin and Padme in that beautiful waterfall scene accidentally on TV and thought "whoa, that looks too beautiful to be missed". If not that love story shaped with the so romantical environment, I would have missed so much fun and epic of the Star Wars universe.

The prequels were appreciated by the younger generation but not because of what Lucas intended, the dialogue was badly written for an adult, but it resonated PERFECTLY with the generation of the 2000s. Angstry teenager without a dad, had trauma, couln't communicate as well so his relationship was always dramatic like that. I saw Roger Erbert write in his review of Attack of the Clones that Lucas didn't know how to write romance, but I think inadvertedly Lucas wrote a very realistic early 2000s romance, it felt to me for example exactly what a grunge front man's love life would be like in private. I don't think it was intended, but it resonated to me way more than the goodie two shoes luke did in the OT, and I watched both at the same time. The problem with the sequels is that it is neither of those, it is plain and simple just a mary sue with no lines even if cringey that you can remember, felt like it was written by AI

These two were my childhood idols. As much as there was criticism thrown at the prequels, me as the 10 year old boy that I was back then, didn't know any of it and was just glued to the screen the entirety of the movies. I remember watching them from my parents' old tube TV and while the quality wasn't anything compared to modern day television, I thought the prequels were the coolest shit ever, better than the originals even. Even to this day, I still love those movies, and while there are things that could have been done better in some instances, those flaws take none of my enjoyment away and I still consider them to be the thing that made me passionate about Star Wars.

They should have hired actors that were only 5 years apart like they were supposed to be according to the lore, but the age gap between the two actors made it seem like a much larger and much more questionable age difference.

It’s actually crazy cuz I genuinely believe Hayden Christenson is a bigger fan about his work and Star Wars than Ewan is. He keeps saying these subtle bits of info still ingrained in his brain, and all these small details from the movies consistently where real fans bring up only every now and then. Warms my heart so much.

I'm really happy that George Lucas, Hayden Christensen, Ewan McGregor and the prequels have been "rehabilitated" in the last decade as an entire generation came of age and was able to reevaluate them and have a voice online. I think the sequel trilogy's controversial reception played a part in looking back at the prequels.

@@docsavage8640 Funny how that applies not only to the prequels (can't ignore the problems that they had in dialogue and overuse of cgi) but to Kenobi as well. Just sad that Kenobi also lacks the scale and grandeur that you expect from Star Wars, has terrible music and the story makes no sense. While many moaned about boring politics in the prequels, at least that story in itself made some sense. And that let's face it, Kenobi is mainly the selling point for the audience and not the driving force or focus of the story as much as he should be. Was smiling and enjoying this video and the enthusiams and joy that you could feel. If only that was still a factor in making Star Wars content. But apparently Disney can't afford good writers for their shows or movies, since most of it is pretty bad. And what makes it worse if you see glimpses of potential and what could be compelling stories/projects that they just wasted. But I'm criticizing Star Wars/Disney content so obviously I must be racist and/or sexist. We're almost at that point right. Since criticizing a female or person of colors character in any manner is now considered to be racist/sexist even when you simply think that a character is badly written. Can't be too much longer until you're not allowed to criticize Disney content at all, without being mislabeled.

Eh idk what "wholesome" means (wholesomao?), but it was definitely a slight bit hackfraudy - Ewan has criticized/badmouthed the first 2 episodes at the time and every now and then, and now he's saying all these positive things and "the target audience liked it, critics put out a hit on it but now the fans caught up, they were meant to be different" etc. etc. because he's in promotion mode, for the new thing that's coming out; or just creative enthusiasm, also possible; a more clear-minded, self-reflective "here'S why I disliked them at these and those points, but here's the other side of my brain", or whatever, would've been more interesting, but this way it's just kinda feelgood fluff and not much more imo.
