Alkonium Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 This is just a general opinion question as to whom you see as Obi-Wan: Ewan McGregor or the late Sir Alec Guiness. I for one see Ewan McGregor, since I feel that he did more physically and mentally than Guiness did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samnmax221 Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Having had oringinally ascociated Obi-Wan with Alec Guiness, I'll have to go with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Andrew Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I say both. Besides the fact that they look similar, McGregor evolves into Guiness very well IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shok_Tinoktin Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I also said both. If I was forced to pick one, I would go with Sir Alec, because he was Obi-Wan for many years before I had even heard of Ewan McGregor. However, when I think of young Obi-Wan, I see Ewan, not a young Sir Alec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Sir Alec Guiness, easy. He's always been Obi-Wan Kenobi to me. Well, I've also thought of him as Hitler... he was great in that role. Ewan McGregor, while a very good actor who did an amazing job in the role, just doesn't hold a candle to the great later Sir Alec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrotoy7 Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 cmon, it's just silly to ask "which is better" Theyre two different character types, thus played by two different actors. Alec was perfect as the "wise old man", but Ewan was also great as the young Obi. Ive always marveled at how young Obi gets pwned by Dooku twice but manages to defeat Maul and Anakin, two of the greatest swordsmen to appear in the films mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hallucination Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Ewan McGregor, because he did the better swordfighting. And was on screen longer than Guinness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachineCult Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Ewan McGregor, because he did the better swordfighting. And was on screen longer than Guinness. And Ewan actually wanted to be in the movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nedak Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Both of them! Without Alec Guiness there would be no Obi-Wan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
