So, her knowing that he goes by Ben would actually be informed by what is happening in the series Obi-Wan Kenobi.Īll of this is just poke holes in the argument that Leia knowing Ben is “retconning” something. If anything, it makes more sense as to why she reached out to Obi-Wan in the first place, because we see her giving R2-D2 the message, and then she yells, “Ben Kenobi!?” when Luke says that he’s aboard the Death Star as part of the rescue mission. Now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire.” Yes, Leia may be-as we now know it-leaving her own relationship with Obi-Wan out of this plea, but the internal logic of the wording being focused on her father still makes plenty of sense, especially given that Leia was a bit pressed for time when leaving this message and didn’t really need to get into every detail. The line of reasoning argues that she references her father knowing Obi-Wan from the Clone Wars but doesn’t say anything about their own relationship, but if you listen to Leia’s iconic message to Obi-Wan, she says, “Years ago, you served my father in the clone wars. And frankly, it’s just a display of sexism disguised as “criticism” with no real rationale to their “critical” take.įocusing on Leia, the argument is that her inclusion retcons A New Hope-you know, a movie where Leia and Obi-Wan see each other as he’s about to die and only then, after she reaches out to him for help via droid. ![]() But with little Leia has come a sea of “Why wasn’t it Luke?” responses or “Wow they made Leia annoying and unlikable” tweets online. ![]() ![]() Well, Star Wars “fans” are at it again, this time with being gross towards two of the leads of Obi-Wan Kenobi, which the franchise’s official Twitter account has already called out in the case of Moses Ingram.
