A Non-Exhaustive, Unranked List (Part 1 of ?) 

  • Everyone is constantly being dramatic, while complaining that everyone ELSE is so dramatic or overreacting
  • That time Jedi kids put on a circus show for pirates
  • The fact that Obi-Wan once pretended to be a bounty hunter and did an obstacle course inside a giant Rubik’s cube 
  • How often people drink alcohol especially in the Clone Wars
  • That time Luminara Unduli scolds Obi-Wan and Anakin to stop being in love with each other for 5 minutes so they can fight the damn war 
  • Obi-Wan jumping out of a window
  • Everyone at the Outlander checking out Anakin 
  • Everything Padme has ever worn, especially when it’s on, like, fucking Tatooine and she’s STILL all “hey check out this couture thing I got the designer to hand make for me personally” 
  • The faces everyone on the Council makes after Qui-Gon tells them he thinks the Sith are back 
  • Luke playing with a toy spaceship and then Anakin doing the same thing in TCW because coolness runs in their family 
  • Obi-Wan’s face in Episode 4 when Luke is bitching about how he can’t go to Alderaan
  • Leia sassing off to Darth Vader at the beginning of Episode 4 (a scene which keeps getting better now, thanks Rogue One
  • Vader’s Lava Castle 
  • Maul’s Obitine-Themed Revenge Shrine 
  • Darth Maul coming back on fucking robot spider legs and being more obsessed with Obi-Wan than even me and possibly Anakin 
  • The Darksaber existing
  • The sheer number of capes, including that Krennic has a rainproof one
  • Obi-Wan and Anakin’s robes in the comics and Vader’s cape in the comics being about 600 times longer than they actually are in the films and somehow always in front of a wind machine
  • Hux’s scenery-chewing villain speech before they destroy Hosnian Prime
  • Obi-Wan’s Post-Jedi-Trainee-Hair Hair
  • Anakin’s Post-Jedi-Trainee-Hair Hair 
  • Yoda stealing Luke’s food 
  • Artoo fucking off mid-assignment to take a spa day in that one TCW episode 
  • My wife Satine Kryze constantly yelling about pacifism
  • Chopper’s arm flails 
  • Vader bringing up Obi-Wan in like every third line he has in the OT even after the guy has been dead for actual years 
  • Kanan and Hera helping to run the goddamn Rebellion while raising a couple of teenage kids at the same time, one of whom is an unstable Jedi Trainee and the other of whom is a damn Mandalorian
  • Anakin’s Sand Soliloquy 
  • Count Dooku having exactly zero minutes of time for absolutely anyone ever, especially in TCW 
  • Sidious. Just…everything about him. 
  • The fact that Bail Organa goes out of his way to mention that he’s going back to Alderaan in Rogue One JUST to cause me pain 
  • The novelization of Revenge of the Sith 
  • Han Solo being like “pfft whatever Old Man I fly the Millennium Falcon” with that smug ass smile on his face while talking to OBI-WAN GODDAMNED KENOBI, who is just listening to all of this with this look like “you have absolutely no idea who you are dealing with here, kid” 

#oh my GOD i lit NEVER EVEN CONSIDERED that last bullet#NO WONDER OBI WAS SO UNIMPRESSED#he was prob like cool cool do u know that ur ship could have fitted in one of my gunship’s exhaust pipes#i mean idk the actual size differences but EITHER WAY LMAO#star wars (via @resistancepilots​)

So, I go into this in more detail in this Snark Wars recap, but the short version is just Obi-Wan’s FACE here, while Han is all like YEAH THAT’S RIGHT MY SHIP IS FAST I can’t BELIEVE you’ve never heard of my sweet ride WHAT HAVE YOU EVER DONE WITH YOUR LIFE OLD MAN

Everyone is free to declare whoever they want as the “best” Star Wars character, but I just want everyone to know the actual best one is Obi-Wan. 😉

@gffa JUST FOR STARTERS

“Is it possible to make user @gffa fall in love with the same character all over again?” the Star Wars crew asked one day.  “LET’S FIND OUT.”

They asked this same question every day for a year straight.

The answer was, indeed, always a very resounding yes.
