12:06 If there's any true example of what "being one with the force" is, this moment is definitely it. Such a beautiful personification of Obi-Wan's perseverance!

You release a Han Solo short, we get the Solo movie. You make a Kenobi short, we get the Kenobi series. Could you please do a Knights Of The Old Republic short? I'm sensing a pattern here.

The double “Hello There” from Obi-Wan to Obi-Wan is still the greatest moment in any fan made project ever.

Kenobi: hello there Also Kenobi: hello there? So uncivilized if you ask me.
Came here after watching the new Kenobi episodes from Disney. I think they should be taking notes. This was phenomenal!! Loved the music, acting, camera work, story, everything! And you managed to tell a full, captivating story in under twenty minutes. Great job to everyone who was a part of this

I think they already were.
I still absolutely love that James came to help out. He did so well as the slimy Imperial Officer, especially when you think about how he portrayed both Obi-Wan and Plo Koon in the Clone Wars. Was a blast watching this again.

I was not familiar with the name, just looked him up on IMDB... Holy Cow!! What a resume! How did you guys ever get him to appear in this? That's fantastic! I'm learning more all the time about voice-actors, I'm familiar with quite a few of them now. Always fun to add another name to the list of amazing talents!
Kenobi's "Hello There" does bring a tear & smile to my face 👍
How is this 10 times better than the official Disney show.

I find it funny that the Officer is the voice actor for Kenobi in the Clone Wars😂
Really hoping the Disney+ Obi-Wan show pulls a leaf from your book and gives James Arnold Taylor a cameo. He’s earned it.

Couldn’t agree more. For his work on The Clone Wars, James Arnold is as much Obi Wan as Ewan McGegor is imo!
Any predictions for the Obi-Wan series?!

If it's done like The Mandalorian, it'll be great. If it's like Book of Boba Fett...not so much. Fingers crossed that no matter what, we see some good action and more of what makes us love the Obi-Wan character so much.

They probably dont have JAT doing a meet and greet “hello there” cameo so there’s already a bummer.
Whether the Kenobi series turns out to be good or bad, the real good news is that we will always have this Star Wars GEM which is absolutely phenomenal 👏👏👏 God bless you Jamie!
This is canon in my eyes. Star Wars made with love of Star Wars. Thank you, Jamie!

I completely agree!! You are restoring the force of good Star Wars storytelling from the evil bad Disney Empire who has tried to destroy it.
Everything about this production is *chef's kiss*. Just perfect. Also gotta say the Qui-Gon Jinn bit after the credits was so spot on, I had to check who the actor was. Kudos to everyone involved! 👏
As I’ve watched the original release about….idk 20 times…I will now watch this one as if I’m watching it for the first time yet again. This film always puts a smile on my face in what waits us in less than 40 days
stunning...to the finest details. disney could learn a lot from this. feels epic.

Still one of my faves I watch this all the time!
I’m so worried this will be better than the entire Obi Wan series. I hope that reads as a compliment. This is ridiculously outstanding and by far the best SW fan film I’ve ever seen. Ever!

Check Jamie's profile. He did a Han Solo one that was pretty great also.
This is my absolute FAVORITE Fan-Film ever. This evokes so much emotion in me dude i swear, the part where Kenobi picks up the Lightsaber left me so emotional. This is AMAZING, i'm not sure the Kenobi Show will be better than this, i must say.
This is, by far, the most superbly crafted, filmed, and acted fan film I have ever seen. I can barely watch most fan films without scrubbing through the cheesy acting parts, but I watched this from beginning to end, glued to the screen, and I will watch it again.
It’s amazing the quality of storytelling that can be done without a corporate monster breathing down your neck. This was better than the entire Kenobi series, and it was done in just 14 minutes!
Words cannot describe how much I love and appreciate the hard work behind this film! This builds my excitement for the #Kenobi series! And having James Arnold Taylor from #CloneWars was a bonus here! May the Force be with you Jamie!
The quality of this is Amazing! I thought it was from the actual Disney+ release even though this Kenobi wasn't Ewan McGregor. The guy looked like Uncle Owen. Very Impressed.
Oh gosh, I loved this before but now that it’s on 4K, it’s just that much more awesome!
A-Freaking-Mazing! You will always be my favorite @Jamie Costa!
Obi Wan being a badass gives me chills every time
Hearing Qui Gons' voice at the end still gives me chills... also super dope you got to work with Rich Ferguson, a great illusionist! great video!
This felt like a real Star Wars sequel, there was good build up and tension at the end. The acting and emotion from the characters put me in the universe. The costumes and special effects everything was amazing, really superb work.

Yes, but technicaly it's a prequel as the story line comes ahead of the Star Wars story line. So everything after Return of the Jedi is actually a prequel.
Uncle Owen was spot on and pretty great too. 👍 Yes, all of it was goosebumps galore!
Jamie, thanks for this. Keeping the faith for all of us! Stellar my friend ✨️ 👍
As you had to live up to Ewan McGregor, he now has to match this, his own performance, and of course Sir Alec Guinness.
Fantastic acting, effects and cinematography!!
Really well, portrayed.. shows Obi-Wan's true dedication to the Force 10/10
Wow, what a great video. Well done. I can't wait for the next installment.
That was actually pretty freaking good.
"Kenobi... KENOBI!!!!" Jamie You Rock man 💙🤘
Very well done. The lightsaber action gave me goosebumps.
OMG - THAT was IMPRESSIVE, MOST IMPRESSIVE. Wow. Seriously well done. I can’t believe how good that was. Great great characterizations. Kenobi was spot on. I only hope the series coming out is as good! Bravo!
Thanks for reposting, Jamie. Everything from the setup to the actors (that cameo) is just spot on (light saber skills!!!). In short: delightful to watch this jewel. Keep them coming.
Absolutely amazing. I don't even know how many times I've seen it at this point, but it still blows me away how you pulled this off. Wish I could binge on your older content too, it's always been a favourite of mine.
Amazing. felt more like Star Wars than most of what Disney has belched out. Well done.... (Vader Voice) Impressive.
Best Star Wars film I have seen in the past decade , please take over , we don’t need Disneys trash.
Great video, super spot on with the EU and what some elements of the Disney Kenobi series will be like. Id love to see you guys do some sort of Indiana Jones content given you look similar to Harrison Ford and have done stuff about Han.
That up-shot or Hero shot of the biker scout with the sun in the background was amazing. Framed up really well. Great work!
Love this film.
... and another 50 yr old guy tears up once more. This is some of the best fan fiction of any film, let alone Star Wars. Ever since I watched your original release, I point anyone and everyone to your channel that likes star wars or indeed any fan made films. You set a VERY high standard for the official Kenobi series to follow Jamie, thanks again.
Wow. I can't believe the quality and faithfulness to the original material. I love this.
Literally 100x better than anything Disney has put out... Excellent work
Thank you for creating this AMAZING fan film 🙂! May the Force be with you ALWAYS.
Very well done, loved the use of the anamorphic lens, seals the deal in many ways, as does the horn heavy soundtrack. Great acting, felt that Ben's accent let him down a bit, but on the whole an excellent effort, keeping true to many SW values.
You made me love Star Wars again. And this kind of Star Wars, not Disney Star Wars necessarily. So thank you Jamie.
I really appreciated the original Kenobi fan film that you made. This 4K tops the original. You make a convincing Obi Wan, looking a lot like Ewan McGregor. I still think we were jipped by not getting you to star in the Solo movie. You were like a Harrison Ford clone and got the Han Solo voice and mannerisms down pat. I’m hoping that Disney can give such a heart felt love letter to fans with their Kenobi.
This is SOooo well done! Here's hoping the Kenobi show took some notes from this! Awesome job from all. :D
Ayyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeee....... That part when the other soldier grabbed the light saber obi was trying to grab with force
That was good. Some of the fan films coming out are better than what Disney is putting out. Thanks for sharing.
I just realized this was you. Wow. Well played, and just again, well done. Superbly done.
Wow. I have to say I couldn’t stop watching. Usually these fan films are bad acting props and make up but wow this was like the real thing. Well done!!!
Absolutely brilliant. You've done in 14 minutes what the new series will take 2 seasons to achieve. Finally a real insight into the broken mind of Ben suffering PTSD and losing all he holds dear...but finding hope and purpose again.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.
Amazing! One of the best fan made shorts I have ever seen. Quality production throughout, from the direction, to the props, to the setting, to the music, to the actors themselves. Qi-gon's voice at the end was a perfect bow tie. Well done!
Absolutely wonderful effort.Much appreciated
Love this short film with the 🐐 James Arnold Taylor
Holy smokes this is so well done.
Amazing! Well done Jamie and crew!
Well damn, that was spectacular! Awesome job with everything...sets, acting, props, costumes, VFX, SFX, story...sheesh!!
I openly wept. I felt more emotion in 15 minutes than I did through the entire sequel trilogy. Absolutely stunning. Thank you for this.
I hope Disney's Obi Wan is a fraction as good as this. Well done! Think Disney should have consulted you when they were working on The Book of Boba Fett. 😎
Fan since 1979....it gave me chills...wow..so awesome...
This was/is remarkable. What a glorious short film. Thank you for all of your hard work and attention to detail!!! Better than most anything I've seen in the canon since Ep 5. Wow.
In glorious 4K! A very well crafted, awesome fan film!
So good. I remember seeing a version of this when it first came out.
That was wonderful. Thanks for a great production.
Wow. Just wow. Incredible!
Great to rewatch this. Thanks.
Outstanding...I've watched it twice now.
Watched this when you first uploaded it & loved it. Seeing it again only makes my anticipation for the Kenobi series on Disney+ that much greater! Keep up the great work. Fan films like this are better than what we get as canon most of the time.
James Arnold Taylor is a legend.
Thank you so much for this! Fantastic work!
This is exactly the dose of SW I’ve been needing in this lull of SW content. I am beyond thrilled that you’ve made this
Fabulous. Jaw dropping, thanks so much for to this.
Even though it doesn’t quite fit canonically, it is incredibly well done on all fronts. Great work by everyone involved!
Wonderful. Thanks for making my day.
Thank you for reacquainting us all with this masterfully crafted production & performance!
Exceptional production. Beautifully faithful to the spirit of Star Wars. Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru rock !
this was great! and thank you for your time in making this.
Absolutely brilliant.
The true beauty of this piece is that it shows Ben completely giving up to the force. The force tells him he doesn't need his lightsaber, he keeps it locked up, day after day, in a cavern below his home. But when the force tells him, "Hey dude, you gonna need dat saber today", he doesn't hesitate. And when the force tells him the threat is over, he returns his saber. True and absolute surrender to the force.
I want to see more of you as Kenobi, maybe do a short on the time he crossee paths with Black Krrasantan?
OMG!!! stop!!! this is AMAZING!!!! need more!!!
That was awesome. Love watching you fan made movies shorts. Keep the good work. Can't wait to see more from you.
Awesomeness 💙 Now in 4K 😉👌🏼 O.O.K
Amazing, great job guys!
Realistic situations as I'm sure obi-wan protected Luke and the Lars countless times. I don't believe he just sat in a cave watching from a distance. Good work!
Just fantastic
The 4k release looks very good. The original was a bit lackluster in video quality. This is still the best Star Wars fan film I've seen. I definitely re-watch it every time among Eps 1-6.
Amazing work, showing Disney how it should be done. You should feel incredibly proud of this as it’s beautiful work
Best Fan film ever made, awesome Portrayal of Obi, I mean it is Dead On!!! Thank you for all the hard work and the passion that was put into this film👍🙏
Super enjoyable to watch... Thank you.
Jamie your a legend! 🌟
I have a terrible feeling that this fan film will better capture the spirit of what we all think the Kenobi show should be more than the official series will, much like how Jamie's Han Solo film captured the spirit of Han Solo more than the official film.
