Obi-Wan got his revenge.

He put his force soul in the body of Rey and became the most powerful Jedi ever

This line is super perplexing given that they didn't initially plan to make a sequel. It's still pretty lame in it's current context, but god damn. What the fuck was that supposed to mean in a world where Star Wars was standalone movie?

Yeah it's especially eye-rolling after we realise in Episode 8 that Obi-Wan was capable of interacting with the physical world the entire time. Why didn't he just use force lightning to stop the Emperor after dying? George Lucas is a hack, and this confirms it.

On what planet does this make him "more powerful than you can ever imagine"?

He can speak to Luke as a ghost later, I guess

Obiwan never told you about how he wanted to be a little girl

>Why didn't he just use force lightning
I mean, it shows him being able to kind of interact with the physical world, but why would he suddenly be able to do a thing he's never been able to do before? And not for nothing, but Sheev was a pretty powerful force user. I feel like he'd be able to handle a ghost Obi-Wan.

He was bluffing, trying to trick Darth Vader into not killing him. But Vader saw through his bullshit and sliced up that old ass coward anyway.

But not even that is terribly clear in the context of the first film. Yeah, we hear him saying "use the force, Luke", but at that point that just plays like Luke is remembering his advice. It's not really until Empire that we see it's actually Obi Wan physically speaking to him through the force.

>"More powerful than you could possibly imagine"
>But Anakin does it in Jedi
>And George added an explanation for it in Episode III, but Vader wouldn't have heard about it

It would unironically be a better movie if that worked and Vader just ran away like a bitch.

>revenge

That was the goal?

But we never saw Yoda use force lightning in any of the movies before Episode 8, and then he used it to burn down the tree, even though he could have used that trick to kill Palpatine in Episode 6. What's the deal, George?

I could see it being confusing, but I think you can tell my the music and Luke's reaction it's supposed to be his disembodied voice instead of a memory. Which doesn't really constitute unimaginable power, but it's like hippie zen shit I guess.

>ran
I think it's more of a shuffle.

No, you're right, that's stupid as shit, but that was Disney's stupid shit.

Obi became an immortal omnipresent god who retained his sense of self after death, one with the force.

All ironic shitposting aside, I can't blame Disney for what was clearly Kennedy and Johnson fucking everything up and not knowing enough about Star Wars when they went into the making of Last Jedi. Disney aren't really involved in the production of these movies, but perhaps they should be, because LucasFilm are fucking it up.
