    I’m glad to see that Jezebel is back in the link lineup, following the success of the GMG union strike! 🌟

    I’m I guess what you would say a medium to medium-high star wars fan and I came away from that trailer with “why did they stop parting his hair on the right” and “Damn it was harder to keep himself and Luke alive those 18 years than I thought”.

    • H says:

      I have a Star Wars room in my house, so that shows you what a geek I am and I still had to look up the Inquisitors. But Obi spying on Luke is awesome, as is the Duel of the Fates music. I might have teared up for a moment.

      • Ally says:

        Duuuuude. Forget the novels and comics. HAVE YOU NOT WATCHED REBELS?!?!

        Go now. Right now. You’ll thank me later.

      • Love says:

        I agree with Ally. Star Wars rebels is top tier. I might give it a rewatch now that I’ve seen it mentioned here. It’s Ben a few months

        Watch it H. Inquisitors will make sense then

      “ “why did they stop parting his hair on the right”

      LOL! Thanks for the laugh! I’m sure it is a sign of his emotional turmoil or something. 😁

      I’m a life long Star Wars fan, but grew out of the book/animation side. But thanks to a very in the know nephew I watched the “Inquisitors” on Star Wars: Rebels and honestly? A far FAR more dramatic and engaging story than that sequel trilogy (which was basically “let’s do the same thing all over again but with a girl this time”. Yawn). Extremely smart to bring this arc into live action. You won’t need to have watched Rebels though. They’re darkside Force users hunting Jedi at the command of Vader and the Emperor. No surprise Kenobi is top of the list. Now you’re mostly caught up!

    • Digital Unicorn says:

      LOL, I came away with ‘Is that really Rupert Friend looking like a hot cenobite?’. Yeah i need to get out more.

      Anyways, it looks good and I will def be watching the sh!t out of it. Obi-Wan can still get it.

    Why would anyone want to be beige…just, beige (Louisa Jacobson)??
    And when did the nude heel come back? Or, did it never leave, lol?

  4. Kate S says:

    I. Cannot. Wait. Until. May 25! Dying over here 😱❤️😱❤️😱. 💙💙💙💙💙 Obi-Wan Kenobi!!!!

    I would say Nicki Minaj won’t get a Vogue cover until she divorced her rapist husband.

  6. The Recluse says:

    It truly is disturbing how these Republican controlled states are becoming little fascist authoritarian fiefdoms in the midst of our general representative democracy. They want to control their citizens absolutely now. What’s next? Police controlled roadblocks on every highway to control the population?

    • Lucky Charm says:

      @ The Recluse – SHHHHHH! Don’t give them any ideas! Or else they’ll start setting up border patrols and require every woman between 10 and 50 take a pregnancy test before leaving the state and upon returning, just to make sure they haven’t done anything “illegal”.

  7. mia girl says:

    Preface – I’ve not seen Louisa Jacobson in any other role or even an interview, so this is based solely on her work in The Gilded Age:

    Louis Jacobson IS so fu**ing bland. My god, she’s the worst part of the series by an eternal feeling mile.

    • Snazzy says:

      I agree! She has so little on screen charisma !! She’s terrible in that role. The oy good things she has going for her are the cool outfits (and that her mom is Merryl so she’s always going to get hired)… Nepotism at its worst!

  8. Delphine says:

    Scarlett has a look. Even as a child actor she stood out. Iconic? Idk.

    • Christine says:

      “Does Scarlett Johansson really have “iconic looks” though?”

      Of course she has an iconic look! Why is this even a discussion? Oh, because she’s a woman, that’s right. I cannot with this level of BS. I would hazard a guess that everyone thinks Tom Holland has an “iconic look”, and he is a zygote, in terms of his career. But sure, Scarlett is tomorrow’s has-been, thanks internet.

      • FHMom says:

        Tom Holland does not have an iconic look. Paul Newman has the most iconic look. Ever.

    • Normades says:

      Meh. Scarlet is iconic because she’s been in some very iconic films but she was never a fashion girl that led trends.

    • FHMom says:

      She is a basic looking blond. Cute, but with those gerbil cheeks not high fashion or iconic

    Looking for Star Wars animated options for my 5 year old please!
