What's up and welcome to another week of Exotics Encyclopedia of Force Facts.
00:00:37
This week we'll be talking about the Obi-Wan series.
00:00:39
Wait, wait, before you start your Force Facts, how could you sit there in good conscience
00:00:44
knowing that Hunter dropped his stupid little holocron of horrors and you continue to force
00:00:51
us to listen to this stupid encyclopedia that you don't even keep track of?
00:00:54
Disgusting.
00:00:55
It was your idea, so you know, I'm just making you feel included in it, so I just want to
00:00:59
make sure it stays there.
00:01:00
Oh, you know what?
00:01:01
I honestly forgot that it was my idea.
00:01:02
Never mind, continue with it.
00:01:04
Amazing, amazing work Exotic.
00:01:07
I love this encyclopedia, it's my favorite.
00:01:10
But in the Obi-Wan series, Ewan McGregor's daughter had an onscreen appearance.
00:01:16
Whenever he went to the planet Daiu, I believe, she appeared as Tetha Grigg, the pink haired
00:01:21
dealer that tried to sell him some spice.
00:01:23
I love any kind of Star Wars fact relating to Mr. Obi-Wan himself, because it's really
00:01:31
cool to know how loved he is by our generation.
00:01:35
He did an interview once and there was a story about how he was taking one of his daughters
00:01:40
to school or somewhere and some young driver in California cut him off.
00:01:46
And so, he had the appropriate reaction that anyone would have, like, what the fuck man,
00:01:51
looking at him.
00:01:52
I love how he could notice on the look of the driver's face going like, that's fucking
00:01:58
Obi-Wan Kenobi.
00:02:00
He talks about how he was cussing him out, yelling at him and everything and you could
00:02:04
just see it in his face.
00:02:05
Fucking Obi-Wan.
00:02:06
But I think it's cool that these actors get to, well, I mean, especially we had that force
00:02:11
fact where when she talked about the 501st cosplayers getting to be in a Star Wars episode,
00:02:18
and it's nice that not only do they include other Star Wars fans, but also the family
00:02:24
of these Star Wars actors that we know and love.
00:02:27
I think it's kind of funny that she probably grew up watching the You Wanna Buy Some Death
00:02:33
Sticks and then getting to proposition Obi-Wan for drugs in his own show.
00:02:41
Must have been a real cathartic moment for her.
00:02:44
Yeah.
00:02:45
I believe her second line was, I was someone's daughter once too, which is another pretty
00:02:49
wild thing.
00:02:50
But yeah.
00:02:51
And back to how Obi-Wan's getting a lot more recognition.
00:02:53
I know here recently he just got his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
00:02:57
I love him and Hayden Christensen finally getting their props and stuff because there
00:03:04
was a lot of backlash in that prequel trilogy era and now that us, we've grown up now, we're
00:03:12
finally giving them their flowers that they oh so deserve.
00:03:17
Seeing Hayden Christensen come out at that one Star Wars celebration and getting in tears
00:03:21
because he finally received thunderous applause as opposed to the boos that he got from the
00:03:30
Star Wars fans who were our age back then.
00:03:33
And now his fans have finally become louder than the haters.
00:03:37
And I love that for both of them.
00:03:38
The critics have definitely been silenced.
00:03:40
At least in that regard.
00:03:41
I mean, they're definitely not quiet at all.
00:03:44
Fuck you Star Wars fans who got the fucking Acolyte cancelled.
00:03:47
I'm still pissed at you guys.
00:03:48
You fucking leave a message on our website so I can fucking yell at you.
00:03:52
Exactly.
00:03:53
I fucking love the Acolyte.
00:03:54
They ruined it.
00:03:55
