If the Ben Solo survived resurrecting Rey went on to construct a new lightsaber, I think he would obtain a natural white crystal, signifying his redemption and inner peace.
I got a idea, how about Lucasfilm simply erase the Sequels and do to Disney Star wars what they did to the canon Expanded Universe Star Wars? How about Disney star wars and all their characters and modern books get completely retconned and erased from existence while the Expanded Universe gets restored? Let's see how they like that.
@@thorshammer7883 Kathleen Kennedy and Disney admitting what they did didn’t work!!?? Now that’s a reality i’d like to live in. But unfortunately they will never admit defeat
@@OuterRimTransmissions66 At the rate things are going their options are dwindling every month. They keep losing hundreds of millions of dollars due to the overspending they put into their agenda projects and their audiences are rejecting them more and more. Bob Iger's seat is under threat and Kathleen Kennedy is becoming more of a unreliable loose cannon along with her allies who are turning on each other the more their situations escalate. Even the shareholders are becoming less and less content with Bob Iger and his board of yes men. And Headland has been fired from all head projects due to her mess up damaging the Disney Star Wars image even more then before and wasting over 300 million in the budget with no return. And the parks are not doing good either as they keep charging the prices and the lawsuits keep hitting them on all sides.
@@OuterRimTransmissions66 Then Disney can continue to lose billions of more dollars from their overspending manipulation and enjoy more lawsuits turning against them as their audience dwindles more beyond what they can maintain. And with the movies they are making in the future in their bad divisions that is likely going to be the outcome for them.
They literally need to start 200 years into the future where everyone we know is dead. Start over. Start fresh. Its what JJ should have done in the first place. Get rid of the baggage. Do something new in our once favorite universe. And stop making TV shows. They are terrible.
@@randykrus9562 i agree overall. I personally think they should go 1000 years ahead of something like that. Since SW (before disney) had its other eras, in most cases, be a few thousand years apart (old republic, dawn of the jedi age). I dont care about what JJ would have done because he 1)despises the prequels and would of done everything he could to spite them. Yes he is quoted hating the prequels hard. And 2) he is known to kill franchises when he steps in (ex star trek.) Yes, disney as a whole, sucks at tv shows. This is due to disney+ and them trying to to “change” how tv shows are made. No show runners, show producers, etc.
Being the professional he is, Stephen Knight probably worked to "un-mary sue" Rey, giving her nuances, flaws, layers, depth and actual challenges. But KK, being who she is, most likely demanded him to "put a chick in it and make her..."
YESS Disney has ruined Star wars they need to give the franchise back to George Lucas, no one will ever be interested in up coming movies go woke go broke like they did
@@OuterRimTransmissions66 yes that is true and I can't blame George Lucas cause it will take A LOT to bring back the I guess "illusion" or "creative imagination"that it was supposed to be and I can say the same about the marvel universe they have taken that creativity out of it
@@markcherry2554 agreed. I think marvel is starting to turn around and get better than phase 4 and beginning of phase 5. A lot of those awful projects are out or about to come out. So the new direction marvel will be taken is in production now
@@OuterRimTransmissions66 I do agree I think with the Deadpool/wolverine success I hope they see that and realize that is what we want, not the cussing and stuff that comes with Deadpool but the imagination that comes with comic book not all this political,and LGBT and "making men uncomfortable"
Problem with the Rey movie is that most people didn't like the character. Honestly her story is bad and the movies she came from are bad. I'd bwlieve Disney is stopping this project from happening put of fear of harming the brand even more. Its be better if they focused on characters people like now and just sort of... Ignore Rey altogether
I won’t make this political… but in my town there’s a place called Rey azteca and I can’t help but think that’s what her name would be in another universe far far away
It didn’t break canon. Mundis age was never established in G canon. And Disney reset canon. Please do actual critique rather than repeating dumb nonsense SWT said.
I think if you actually watch the end half of this video it critiques what you’re saying. This guy goes into it but seems you only hear the birthday part. Sheesh Honestly his bday and shit isnt the main issue. Its just the fact that he is the one selected by the show, out of all possible people, to know what’s going on with the dark side user. And clearly Lucas Film is having issues with the canon and implementing information from legends to the new canon well. And this video explains how they changed the implications and meanings of the movies (G Canon) so maybe watch it all???
In that scene where young Ki Adi Mundi was present, the other Jedi offer alternative possible explanations for what happened to Sol and his team: it could have been a fallen Jedi, a splinter order, or something else that was responsible. Him saying "the Sith have been extinct for a millennium" in Ep 1 isn't canon-breaking, because not all darksiders are Sith. To be Sith is to be part of a specific culture and group. Let me paint you a parallel of just how absurd Qui-Gon's declaration that he was attacked by a Sith, in an alternate universe where Qui-Gon is a CIA agent in 2024, and Ki-Adi-Mundi is the CIA director: QUI-GON JINN: "I was attacked by a mysterious man." CIA DIRECTOR KI-ADI-MUNDI: "How terrible. What do you know about the man who attacked you?" QUI-GON: "He was a trained spy. My only conclusion can be that it was a member of the Black Hand." KI-ADI-MUNDI: "The Black Hand...?" QUI-GON: "Yes". KI-ADI-MUNDI: "You mean the Serbian secret society responsible for the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, which caused World War I... in 1914? That Black Hand?" QUI-GON: "The very same". KI-ADI-MUNDI: "... why...? Why would you possibly assume that THE BLACK HAND is responsible for this attack? I mean, of all the groups that could possibly attack you... gangsters, Mossad, drug cartels, disaffected youth... why do you conclude that it HAD TO BE a secret society from Sarajevo from 110 years ago? They're extinct!"
Qamir is a Sith He even describes himself as a Sith Even if he’s, say, SHIT Lord it’s obvious that Lesly is TRYING to push that stupid fan theory that makes the Jedi the secret bad guys
@@KRobinson-ko1ne Qimir doesn’t actually say that. What he says is “Jedi like you might call me Sith”. He may be Sith, or he might not be. Regardless Ki-Adi wasn’t there to hear him say it. And, from the small council scene, it is implied that dark or fallen Jedi, splinter orders, and other threats are common enough that assuming the Sith are at play without definitive proof is foolish. And as for the Jedi being “bad guys”: why do you see things in such black and white terms? The Jedi try to be good guys, but they can get it wrong. They can have conflicting needs that force them to make imperfect decisions. That’s the central theme of the show: how an institution whose members have good intentions can still fuck up.
@@grifonecoronato ehhh dude i think you’re starting to pull at strings here. You’re already having to fill in the blanks too much by yourself just to have it make sense. Qimir does call himself Sith, or however you just stated it, but as the audience we are then supposed to think HE IS SITH. This is also further confirmed by Plagueis being present in the cave. Also dumb in my opinion. In regards to the splinter order, or whatever, one - the show doesn’t go down that path enough to explain more. It just kind of says it and forgets it. So as the audience we are still thinking Sith. 2- in the High Republic Novels this era is a time of peace, yes, but dark side users, splinter orders, aren’t common either. So using that as a way to say “nOt ObViOuSlY sItH” doesnt do anything. Because it still is more likely a Sith. Its really just the fact that Leslye chose to have this specific character be in this awful show and hear this specific issue with a dark side user makes no sense. If it was idk Kit Fisto it wouldnt be that much of an issue since he wasnt on the council during episode 1, in pretty sure. Now for why is it so black and white? This is where we need to pull ourselves out of our world and into the SW galaxy. The rules are different than the ones in our own world. This also relates to your CIA analogy. The SW universe has rules that make the dichotomy of good and evil pretty black and white. Especially when it comes to the force there really is no grey. There are definitely characters that go back and forth between the two sides but they end up on one or the other. Also the force isnt just something that enhances our feelings, it also drives them. So the force is something we still dont understand on how it would actually affect us. This universe makes it seem that the dark side can really warp you into going further down that path. It almost controls you. So its not just like “oh i feel like doing bad stuff today, but tomorrow ill be nice” it kind of takes it to a whole new level. The prequels showed us how even the Jedi can make mistakes and aren’t perfect. But this show, just like this video says, makes us now think the Jedi are just dumb and more blind than we thought. It really just comes off as this show wants to make the Jedi look awful
@@anakinstark66 "[...] HE IS SITH. This is also further confirmed by Plagueis being present [...]" Until we have an on-screen interaction between Qimir and Plagueis, we don't know the nature of their relationship. Qimir could be a Sith Apprentice (as he implies), just as much as he could be a Force-wielding agent of the Sith (much like the Inquisitorius were for Vader). Implication doesn't mean confirmation. --- "In regards to the splinter order, or whatever, one - the show doesn’t go down that path enough to explain more" The show or its characters don't have to explain it more: the fact that the small council offered up these as possibilities -- while never once mentioning the Sith -- gives enough information to the audience that a) the Sith aren't a possibility to them, and b) that there are plenty of disparate Force-users that can threaten the Jedi Order's members. They don't have to be a common occurrence, they just have to be COMMON ENOUGH to warrant being mentioned. If anything, Ki-Adi-Mundi being here ONLY REINFORCES what he said in The Phandom Menace, because he would have personally overseen missions with evil, lightsaber-wielding Force users, who were identified as anything but Sith. And lastly -- and I can't stress this one enough -- Ki-Adi-Mundi was 100% factually wrong in The Phantom Menace. His role in the story is to be the Doubting Thomas archetype, and his presence in The Acolyte reinforces why he feels justified in his skepticism when listening to Qui-Gon Jinn. --- "It really just comes off as this show wants to make the Jedi look awful" And this is the core criticism old-school fans seem to ultimately have: they don't like the Jedi portrayed as anything but perfectly good. But the Jedi were never perfectly good; they fell because they were prideful, and thought themselves too skilled and wise to ever be threatened on an institutional level. And that's not ME saying this, that's George Lucas saying it. The Jedi's overarching story says that the Order was destroyed because of their own hubris. Darth Sidious was just an instigator, and he only had to topple a few dominoes, which the Jedi Order had already set up by themselves. But at the same time -- and let's be honest here, as fans of Star Wars -- we can't have an overarching story that the Jedi fell from hubris, and then get upset when the Jedi are portrayed as acting hubristically. The Jedi on The Acolyte had good intentions but they acted badly. That's the whole point: to sow the story seeds for what comes later.
Man, the state of Star Wars TV shows really makes me sad about the cancellation of Star Wars Underworld, that show was planned to release in 2009 if my memory doesn't fail. Considering the era, I'm sure Star Wars Underworld would have had more episodes than all of the Disney + Star Wars shows combined, would that have given it filler episodes? Probably, but I'm sure none of them would have been as bad as The Acolyte, I'm even sure Star Wars Underworld could have been better than the two most acclaimed Disney + Star Wars shows (The Mandalorian and Andor)...
the show definitely would of been the first of its kind and be a great start to live action shows. the underworld of coruscant and the crime and villainy that dwells there! I do know that many ideas of what they had at the time made it into The Mandalorian concepts and story. Of course, I guess we will never know what George could have done sadly :(
It's all Disney's fault 😢. Star Wars is dying and the only one who could have saved this series is George Lucas and he is not doing anything or he is being deliberately kept out of the picture. I mean what do they think of themselves? The guy who actually literally gave birth to this franchise is being excluded from the majority of the projects. I didn't even give acolyte a thought or made an attempt to watch even a single second of it because I know it will be a massive disappointment like Obi-wan. I say Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen wasted their valuable time and effort coming back to that sh*tshow. The only satisfying part in Obi-wan was when he lifted all those rocks and in Ahsoka when Anakin and Ahsoka were revisiting the clone wars.
Amen my friend! We need George back and we need great stories. SW under disney has missed almost 90% of the time. Very very few good things, but otherwise its all bad
The issues with Star Wars won't be fixed on a larger screen with fewer releases. The problems are inherent with the franchise management, and those problems need to be addressed first and foremost. If not, Star Wars will suck on the big screen as much as on the small screen.
absolutely. 100% agree. i mean look at the sequels, little to no shows at all at that time and still sucked. I will be going more into Lucas Film issues and my opinions in videos coming up. I think they all need to go. Filoni included
@@anthonyobryan3485 yea that's sometimes the issue when you have a story where you know when and where the character dies. it's all gonna lead to a predetermined end and there is other things we would rather see
I’ve never actually told anyone this before but I think having a real lightsaber could be really fun. However, I’d be afraid of the power it would grant me over my enemies (non governmental)
