An extension to the Palpatine killing Padme, I would add to the theory that it is likely Plagueis's technique of Life extension that was employed. A force ability to drain life from another to survive mortal wounds sounds right up his alley.
1.21 thats just stupid, ever heard of Character development, he learned from the Tuskens, grieved and avanged their death, and started ruling the people he cared about with respect and a kind heart. thats just character development and not another person
Vader told Boba “No disintegrations”… Referring to the disintegration rifle you can see him and later Mando use. This gun does not leave behind skeletons…Maybe he used his flamethrower instead haha, but we all know it was flame troopers
I very much prefer the "theory" (it's actually supported on screen) that stormtroopers' bad aim, at least in episode 4, can be attributed to them having orders to let the princess escape... leading the Empire to the rebel base.
Along while ago, I saw two that interested me. Chewbacca is an agent for the Jedi/Yoda working to push people to where they might need to be most. Stormtroopers are actually highly skilled, but were given orders to not kill Luke, and Leia thus when we see them they always look bad. This one is one I've pondered on a bit. Han is probably force sensitive though not very strong only getting minor physical buffs at times.
In episode iv, weren't they labeled as rebel intruders who is trying to rescue the rebel princess? Darth Vader did not know Luke was his son until episode v. So stormtroopers either suck in the movies or they're good in the lore for some reason.
@thepeskyone vader knew someone would come for Leia eventually so ordered the storm troopers to let them escape as there was a tracking device on the falcon so its entirely possible that the storm troopers being some of the best soldiers in the galaxy and being so bad that the rebels escape can both be true
I think Kathleen Kennedy and her crew hyped up that because they were trying to find another gimmick to make Star Wars more popular. But that was the worst thing they could’ve thought of. We we didn’t want to see a failure of a trilogy sequel trilogy nonetheless with gay love. Get out of here that’s not gonna save Star Wars
The Luke training in Empire entry... I always took it as a couole of things. A) prequel era and earlier Jedi were way more powerful and better trained than BBY Jedi (though Luke was to become/is the most powerful). They just needed to "ensure" Luke wouldn't fall to the dark side, and his small-ish amount of training would be enough. Also, Luke was a Jedi in war time, so he had more real world chances over the years in between movies, to hone his skills. Of course so were the prequel Jedi, but they were already Knights or Masters, as opposed to younglings and eras prior where missions were scarce. Then B) I always felt that the reason the Jedi took them as babies was because growing up Force sensitive can be confusing and dangerous, and even can breed a dark side user if they aren't properly watched, brought up, and trained. Plus, there's more chances to make childish, selfish, angry decisions growing up Force sensitive where you'd almost certainly fall to the dark side. As opposed to adults, who already know the difference between right and wrong and if they're already good people like Luke, they don't require as much training. Adults can obviously grasp the magnitude of what's going on, need to just hone their physical skills and be made aware of their feelings and to be very careful not to fall. So that's why he and other adults BBY, seem to pick up on The Force and being a Jedi early...
I always thought the prequel trilogy cast an interesting shadow on Yoda's training of Luke. It seems more like Yoda is using Luke - a bit of light training then it's "oh good, you are a Jedi now so be a good lad and go and kill Vader"
Han Solo was bullshitting about parsecs to see what reaction he got from Obi Wan, so that we could gauge how much he could get away with charging them if they were clueless bumpkins. Rather than, he got really close the a space octopus, on the same week he got his surname, gun, ship, ship's AI, and dice.
The vast majority of fans were not asking for Fin and Poe. Weren't asking for Rey and Ben either. Personally not looking for a love story in star wars. I want light Saber duals, blaster bolt shoot outs, and fast paced space battles. Hopefully with a decent story to get the hero from point A to point B. Unless you're taxing trade routes. Leave the politics and virtue signaling out of it please.
Oh and as for Obi-Wan recognizing R2, I believe in the New Hope novelization (which im 99% sure is technically considered non-canon, though I don't like that), or maybe even the aforementioned FROM A CERTAIN POV book, there's a small part where on the Falcon Obi-Wan pats R2 on "the back" (lol), and says something like "good to see u again old friend," or some shit.... its obviously a "fan service" acknowledgement of a forgotten part that just needed a simple retcon, but it's there
All except Qui-Gon Jin. Obi-Wan also initially agreed with the council members that the dark side surrounds Anakin. It was only because Qui-Gon Jin's dying wish was to have Obi-Wan train the boy that he accepted the task.
The whole way the birth\death\birth\death scene is shot definitely adds to the Palpatine killing padme theory. The doctor droid even says "for reasons we can't explain she's dying" and as she dies vader rises. Then Palpatine lies about the situation to make Anakin even more angry.
I get the hate towards the New Boba. But people need to accept the old western themes Star Wars follows. In the originals boba was young and aggressive. He’s become old now and is tired of a lifetime of gunslinging. Him trying to find a more peaceful existence within the world of crime syndicates I think actually fits the character well. As that’s all he’s ever known.
He didn't act like he didn't remember. He just said that he didn't remember owning a droid. R2 was Padme's droid. He was saying he doesn't remember owning one at that time
The whole Finn po romance thing would be an absolutely absurd case of virtue signaling for its own sake. A mistake too many movies and TV shows have made recently
My head-cannon is that Palpatine was keeping Padme alive with Plagueis' Life Extension technique. He kept her alive to build Ani to the brink of insanity. Once he had Vader's loyalty, he let her slip away.
I was hoping (and knowing it wouldn't happen) that the Obi Wan show would reveal that Obi Wan was actually the father of Luke and Leia. Which would have really fucked shit up
The Poe and Finn theorists were not anywhere near the majority of Star Wars fans. It's so weird the obsession people have with the sexuality of fictional characters. They were just as weird as the Reylo shippers.
I'm glad Rey wasn't Obi Wans granddaughter because the whole point was that Obi Wan and the Duchess loved each other but didn't do anything because Obi Wan wouldn't betray the Jedi code
I think you have it backwards? Sex isn't prohibited by the Jedi code. Attachment is. So. Actually apart from Obi never fully giving into his attachment. He already did betray the code. With his feelings towards Anakin as well in the end, he loved him like a brother.
I've always believed that Palpatine did indeed drain Padme's life force. When she takes her last breath, Vader takes his first. Palpatine knew that would cement Vader in the dark side
Just a wild f$$$ing theory here... maybe... But uh... aren't r2 units like... super common? I mean... Maybe... just maybe.... there is more than 1 blue r2 unit in the whole dank-ferrik galaxy? Be like you m8 owning a freaking blue mondeo 30 years ago... or was a chaser instead? sunny? I dunno it was a blue car...
The whole problem with Book of Boba Fett is the fanfic narrative surrounding the character. Much like with Luke, what people keep saying about Fett isn't what was there. Boba Fett was simply a bounty hunter. Nothing more. He isn't this super assassin that people keep saying he is. That's why Book of Boba Fett is so jarring. What we got was the Boba Fett we see in the films, but what people wanted was something that was never really there.
When I saw Return of the Jedi in in the theater, it didn't make sense to me that Vader would die without his helmet. Cause we'd already seen him without it. I thought at the time that Palpatine had been keeping him alive since day one. So for Vader to kill Palpa was to also kill himself. Makes the Palpatine killed Padme theory very pleasing to me
We saw him without his helmet for a couple of seconds while he was within his fortress of solitude thing. That's a lot different from taking his helmet off for an extended period after he'd already been severely wounded.
If Rey had a Obi-Wan connection would have made her a even more Mary Sue. Since that means it would also be from Satine Kryze and would make her a Mandalorian and in line to lead them.
Here's my theory about Rey: She is the twin sister of Ben, she went off with Han for father daughter bonding time during which he ended up losing her as she was taken by scoundrels/pirates (whether by accident or on purpose) only to be sold to Unkar Plutt later on, causing Han to believe he was to blame for his daughter's disappearance and become increasingly distanced from Lea in which he went back to smuggling in hopes of getting information about his daughter It would much better explain the dyad between Rey and Ben as well as explain why Anakin's lightsaber called to her
I thought we were going to see Finn and Rey be a couple. Poe and Finn? Didn’t really pick up on that at all and I’ve never heard that as a theory until this video.
Luke's training to become a Jedi was fast? Rey beat a Sith apprentice in a duel with NO training. She became a Jedi in like, what, an hour? Too old to begin the training my ass.
Yes, Luke had all the coupons for that, being the last Jedi (of Yoda's Jedi Order pattern), Anakin's son, with the YounglingSlayer3000's "muscle memory", and trained by Yoda, doing all 3 Harrowings for a self-knighting opportunity in the form of confronting Vader. But the Force was deep in Imbalance, training the Jedi pattern was easier, but also the ONLY option, to not automatically go full Sith. Rey exists in the Dyad, that would typically have to happen in the Balance interference pattern, the thickest band in the middle. She can't meaningfully be anything but Bokun Jedi, until her state of existence changes again, but could still make a Dai Bokun Sect/Order/etc.. Training can teach her how to make spells, but not cast them using the previous pattern. She does have innate Force Xerox, though, so that comes in handy, when fighting a Force user - she can pass the test, with sparkle-glue on "her" answers, but she hasn't really understood the subject.
Here's mine. Grogu is actually "baby Yoda." At some point he will travel back in time 800+ years by way of the "World Between Worlds" and become Jedi Grandmaster Yoda. That would mean that Yoda knew of the Clone Wars and the fall of the Jedi all along, but that his role in history was to train Luke Skywalker in the Jedi arts in order to defeat Palpatine.
@@macintyger2179 most likely because of some kind of Force destiny thing where certain events could not or should not be changed. If he prevents Palpatine from becoming Emperor or Chancellor, he prevents the downfall of the Republic and the Jedi Order. Then Grogu doesn't go into hiding after Order 66.
I used to be a complete self-centered ass. After getting run over by a car or two I became a caring individual. Boba Fett may have had the same transformation I did... only he was slowly being digested in the Sarlacc's stomach at the time of his transformation. 🤔
you may want to talk a bit slower. I slowed down the video to 0.75, and I could follow it better. just a suggestion, maybe it's just me. great video. nice work!
Annikan was the chosen one. he brought balance to the force. When he was done, at least in the movies, we had two Jedi (yoda and obi wan) and two Seth (vader and emperor). Prophecies don't need to be about political power they can obsess over mathematic equality as well.
I'd like to add my own fan theory that I made back when Benicio Del Toro was first cast. But before the franchise atom bomb that was TLJ came out. A theory that objectively would've been much better than what we got. It went like this: what if when Yoda said, " There is another Skywalker ..." with his last words. He was really trying to say " There is another Skywalker.........you must destroy. ". And all this time Yoda was never referring to Leia. But to Luke's half-brother (to be played by Del Toro) who was fathered by Vader after turning to the Dark Side. That would set up an incredible Luke vs Vader-like rematch with someone who would serve as Vader. But who's irredeemable, unlike his father. And the embodiment of Luke had he fallen to the Dark Side or been raised by Vader. And this one twist could've set up an enduring battle of Light and Dark Side Skywalkers in death-ending journeys to scrub each other from their family's lineage in pursuit of purifying the Skywalker bloodline to remake it in their own image. The Skywalker war could end in the face off between Luke and his half-brother. Or last for generations in the SW timeline.
That's a plot twist, that... subverts expectations. It still feels more likely he was referring to the secret sister sub-plot. But you want proof of Luke's heroism? He didn't bring R2 to record the showdown on the Death Star... No droids on Ahch-To either, was there? It is a bit more shrouded in mystery, in spite of it's presentation as a cohesive story. Redemption from killing kids by taking pride in having had a son for himself, who gets to live? Maybe it was something else entirely. And what if that's the Imbalance? Either Yoda's Jedi Order pattern, or full Sith Lord? When the prophecy brings Balance, things change. An interference pattern emerges, typically with a Dyad in the middle. Luke happened, so Anakin could fulfil that prophecy, by causing Vader to die of the big sads, after their Bespin encounter. Maybe that became a convenient way for the Universe to destroy Palpatine, which had to happen at the moment of his victory, for some reason, immediately breaking his hold. But it's not the only blood of the Chosen One, there was always Obi-Wan, and Yoda, and more before that. Chiss Skywalkers use the heightened Force sensitivity they have as young females, to operate a hyperdrive manually, instead of using a pre-calculating computer. Rey Skywalker has a yellow saber - for learning, engineering, insight, ritualistic/manifestation spellcraft? So a Skywalker could be Luke's Astral Projection, but as a summonable Pokéjedi and spellbook, there could be a Ben Skywalker, and Leia Skywalker, and Rey Skywalker (a sacrifice to enshrine herself as hero in the Force). And over time they get slightly bigger, and as more people use them, much bigger and more biblically accurate.
Lol... you make it sound like 100% of the SW fans wanted a gay romance in SW when it was only a bunch of tumbler weirdos that wanted that and they definitely are not really SW fans.
Disney went with the incest route instead of gay lovers. Head canon Anakin Skywalker’s father is Palatine making Rey and Ben Solo cousins. I would have preferred the gay romance.
Padme died due to injuries Anakin caused during their confrontation. they kept her alive in the medical bay long enough to deliver. Palpatine is not above telling the truth if it suits his purposes.
You horrible people 😂 Dying from a broken heart is beautifully tragic and totally believable. I thought the ending of ROS was the best part of the prequels.
Lolololololol George himself has literally said anakin is the chosen one. He's always been the chosen one and he always will be. Fan theories are just that. Fvcking theories.
I'd say political correctness is what killed the book of boba Fett just like how they changed the name of the ship and everything like that so they had to tone it down he couldn't be running around catching people and turn them into slaves and such stuff like that
I’ve always tried to figure out how changing the name of Fetts ship was a “PC” move, when a lot of the Star Wars story revolves around slavery in the galaxy. If you were going to be PC wouldn’t you take slavery out the mix completely?
@@dedricderesenn6424 They just call them "Prisoners with Jobs" to make themselves feel better about it... -- too much of Anakin's backstory (and his being primed for the dark side) ties back to His childhood as a slave so they can't wholesale erase it from the world...
@@BigJeremyBeyer , I am a brilliant speller, and an aspiring novelist. I may have perfected techniques the most efficiently to produce typographical error manufacturing process.
@@RogbodgeVideo hmm grand daughter but then that would mean obi and satine had a child then that child prob met the secret child of Palpatine and hence Rey
My star wars theory is that they dont cast attractive females with a decent chest is bcuz they dont want to incite bob envy & have that character being instantly hated by women
Really? Two men on screen can't just be friends?? There seems to be an awful lot of less focus on the importance and hardship to have healthy friendships nowadays. I.m.o.
“Those who cannot conceive Friendship as a substantive love but only as a disguise or elaboration of Eros betray the fact that they have never had a Friend" - C.S. Lewis
Chill out, y’all, I like it when men are friends too. I just thought that specifically Finn and Poe had a ton of chemistry that was deliberately included by the actors and possibly the director/writers, and they didn’t commit to developing it further because the Disney executives are cowards. I think male platonic friendship is beautiful and crucial and underrated, and I love to see it. I think Luke and Han are a great example of close male friendship that I’m happy to interpret as wholly platonic without reservation. Also Spike and Jet from Cowboy Bebop, Picard and Riker from Star Trek, Ronon and Shepard from Stargate, etc, etc etc. I just think *in my opinion* and in *just this one case* that Finn and Poe being explicit love interests would be an improvement, and I feel deliberately queerbaited by a noncommittal Disney. Take a moment and ask yourself - would you have left a similarly argumentative comment if I had said “we were robbed of the Finn/Rey romance we deserved”, and if not - why do you think? Just something to think about 😄
1:36 this theory sollely exist because fans dont like Rey, they say she had no training while she did and Luke in ep5 also had as much training. so they try to make a way so that Luke had more training wich is dumb cause he doesnt need to. the movie already showed us, he had no training and got his hand cut off, he finished his training and won in ep6. so this theory is both stupid unneeded, and meaningles
