I can't get enough Star Wars. It's so ingrained from childhood through now. Watching and rewatching anything on D+ has become my mid life crisis.

Got it. Not a movie, the miniseries that was out a year and a half ago.

@deaknh03 Technically, yes, a miniseries. From my perspective, if it’s streaming & a one-off thing, it’s just dumb to make it in episodes. I’m not going to watch anything streaming one episode/week at a time. Quit doing that with regular TV/cable/satellite when DVRs became a thing.

Understood, just threw me as its neither new or a movie so I was searching for a new movie...fruitlessly.

Had I not been in the know, I might have freaked out too.

It was 2 1/2 hrs, i downloaded from a online movie site.

@throttleplate My mistake on length above I just assumed each episode was 1 hr. I have since checked IMDB & the series should have been a bit over 4.5hrs for episodic version in total. I think you watched a fan edited version of some sort. Unsure of what was omitted but knowing Disney, probably nothing overly important. I’m not a hardcore fan by any means but thought you may wish to know.

Thanks for that info, i just assumed it was a movie, i did not know it was a disney series untill i learned on this forum that it was, wonder what i missed?

@throttleplate I think I did a Google search for Obi Wan movie & found something called the Patterson edit. I won’t swear to it but I thought there were also other fan edits out there. From the little I read, Patterson edited out what they felt was essentially pointless to the story. Since Lucas isn’t directly involved anymore, I wouldn’t get too worked up over it. Probably no different than the updated SW eps 4-6 Lucas released years later (extended versions). Lots of fluff with a few improvements on special effects, nothing I found jaw dropping by any means.
