Sidenote: Sorry if the background music is overwhelming at points, I didn’t notice until rewatching after the post. Sorry for the inconvenience and I hope it didn’t take away from the content too much.
Thanks for making this! I think you should use no background music at all. IMHO it is always a distraction like a radio playing in the background. I could easily start a music track in background by myself when watching the video (my choice, my volume). A music track doesn't add anything to the content besides distraction and maybe copyright claims (and more work for you) :). I'm sorry, just my opinion. I will watch you anyway.
Idk I actually loved the background music in this video: since this iceberg doesn't have nearly as many creepy entries as the others, the video benefited from the score, creating a sense of adventure and intrigue that fits the Star Wars Universe very well. I can see how some people might find it distracting or unwelcome, but in my opinion it was a good call. Other than that the video is awesome and I can't wait for the rest of your Conspiracy videos
Chewbacca being Sasquatch is also a reference to the filming of Return of the Jedi. When filming the Endor scenes in the Pacific Northwest there were genuine fears from the cast and crew that Chewbacca would be mistaken by people in the woods as being Bigfoot.
Oh no, I could believe Disney is family friendly, but they force all of their subsidiaries to also be as child friendly as them, hence why Star Wars is barely ever allowed to take itself seriously anymore outside of shows like Mando or Andor. Or the Vader comics.
11:25 In the original Star Wars novelization, Obi-Wan casually mentions that "even a duck has to learn how to swim," which confuses the desert-bound Luke. A few pages later during the first jump to hyperspace, Luke suddenly starts thinking about a dog he once owned.
@JoeQuinn31 As a kid I had limited tv access and a one-volume edition of the first three Star Wars novels. I was pretty obsessed and read them over and over again, to the point where I have a sort of Mandela effect with certain scenes and dialogue bits that only appear in the books. I swear Biggs Darklighter was a more important character to child me than he ever was in canon.
To add to the ET thing: Remember the Halloween scene from ET where he's dressed as a ghost? When ET sees a kid in a Yoda costume, he kinda freaks out and follows "Yoda" around saying "Home! Home! Home!" Until Elliot stops him.
Qui-Gon did not commission the clones. It was Sifo-Dyas who approached the Kaminoans and commissioned them to create an army. Then Dooku ordered the Pykes to kill him. Dooku then took over the cloning operation and recruited Jango to be the genetic template. Point is that Qui-Gon had nothing to do with the cloning operation.
Maybe sifo dyas cloned himself as a test? Would explain that both canon and legends could run simultaneously, and real sifo was killed by dooku while fake sifo dyas maybe had a lot of issues while cloning and went insane?
Hearing R5-D4 instantly agree with R2 and understand his scenario, even self destructing to make sure that R2 can complete his mission is why Luke exists in Star Wars. R5-D4 was the real hero of the Star Wars OT!
There was another comic made that explained that R5 was actually a force-sensitive droid who sensed how important R2 was and self destructed to ensure R2 got to where he needed to go (I will add that this wasn't considered Canon even before disney took over
@@ImaginaryPerson1138 Yeah Skippy the Droid was Infinities, and was made as a joke by the people who worked on the EU to poke fun at themselves for having everything interconnected and every minor background character with their own backstory.
I think that if in attack of the clones Darth Jar Jar just killed someone with a brutal force choke and complained about having to force himself to talk in that accent, everyone would've loved Jar Jar way more.
Well he was actually using the force in the movie. Some even on screen. When the two jedi jump from the balcony, jar jar is on the right of them, however he lands on the ground on the left. One of the battle droids actually follows him with its eyes. Later hes using his hands to aim the droid’s blaster that got stuck to his foot
it would have made me so furious yet impressed but thankfully Lucas's wife was there to stop him from making horrible writing decisions without setting any of them up
So wait, if Rey went back in time to become Anakin’s mom, does that mean the Lego Star Wars Holiday Special is canon because it actually showed Rey time traveling?
An interesting fact that was neglected in the iceberg. George Lucas’s Neck actually contains a Venom Sack; with which he spits a highly caustic Venom at anyone who dare challenge his supreme creative vision. In a way not dissimilar to the Dilophosaurus from his good friend Stephen Spielberg’s film, “Jurassic Park.” In fact, some industry insiders say the scene was inspired by Lucas.
It's pretty funny that "Ewoks have horses" is a theory based on a single scene in Rise of the Skywalker while there are 2 full Ewoks movies where we can see them riding horses/ponies.
@@Cyadragon Concept of Hell in SW appeared in many cultures, and was slightly diffrent in each one. Mandalorians believed in something called "dar'yaim", where souls of Mandalorians that betray the code went (even if they were still alive, live ones were called "Dar'manda", or "soulless"). Clones were (at least in old EU) trained by the Mandalorian mercenaries, many could speak Mando'a and were well-accustomed with Mandalorian culture. TL;DR: Yeah, he did and that makes perfect sense
I'm surprised that no one mentioned the theory that since the Daughter's life force was transferred to Ahsoka to bring her back to life, that Ahsoka is now the living embodiment of the Light Side of the Force.
One theory which isn't mentioned here, but is probably the most interesting one, is that all humanoid species in Star Wars have a common ancestor. It essentially explains that all species with humanoid traits, like having arms and legs, have evolved over thousands to millions of years from a common ancestor, way before the first SW lore arose. Before hyperspace-travel was invented, there was a time where small empires ruled over starsystems near to eachother and only after the discovery of the hyperspace-travel species spread out over the galaxy. One of the first empires to do so just happened to be a humanoid species, most likely humans themselves, which came from earth (which is kind of SW canon) and evloved into all the humanoid species we know in Star Wars, like Twi'lek or Gamorrean. So, there is a possibility that the whole galaxy got taken over by the human genome, the only problem about this theory is, that in the beginning of any SW media it says, "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away".
the phrases 'hell' and 'jeez' can be explained away by the theory that the star wars films are an english dub of galactic basic and so the actual phrases are changed to their english equivalents
It can simply be explained by Earth being canon though; if Earth is canon and is identical to Earth as we know it in real life (an assumption, but I believe a fair one), then the idea of Christianity and therefore heaven, hell and Jesus would exist, however we on Earth as we know in reality are yet to conclusively prove the physical existence of the entity that is labelled "God" and since we are incapable of extended space travel we are relatively unaware of the other life forms that exist in the universe and are largely unaffected by any conflicts between galactic powers, so with such little knowledge of the wider universe and its complexities due to us being comparatively uneducated in such things compared to say, the Jedi, it can be argued, that which we know as "God"/"The Holy Spirit" and therefore that which causes life, miracles and such, along with death, disasters etc is in fact "The Force" which means no explanation is needed other than, there has been visitors to our planet (you can choose whether that is real or just inside Star Wars lore 😋) and therefore they would have learnt of our language, our expressions and our communication tendencies etc and taken that info across the universe with them passing it on to other life forms they come across and through this phrases such as "I’ll see you in hell" could easily be adopted by well travelled character such as Han 🤷🏾♂️ but who knows just a theory I guess 🤣
I feel like the fact that there are actually between 40 and 60 planed episodes for the Clone Wars that were never made due to the cancellation should be somewhere on the iceberg.
@@orcatwar9810 that was their og plan before the show really gained traction but even before it was killed by disney it had more than 100. They planned to make 8 full 22-24 epsiode long seasons. The cancellation fucked up season 5 and 6. Only a few epsiodes of season 6 were finished and not all of season 5 aired so then they aired the rest of season 5 with the few finsihed season 6 epsiodes as the netflix lost epsiodes
Regarding the "OB1" theory, this actually goes deeper. Obi-Wan, when we first meet him in New Hope, references having fought in the Clone Wars. It was a throwaway line back then, but as nothing had been established about the Clone Wars in canon at the time, other than that they did, in fact, happen, some theorized that "OB1" was his designation, and that he'd been one of many clones to have served in the Clone Wars.
@@dogshake Again, that wasn't established back when the first Star Wars movie came out (not to mention that there are a few examples of force sensitive clones in canon, such as Galen Marek's clones in Force Unleashed II, or the Cuis clones, created from the genome of Sa Cuis; That said, i'm not sure if either of them are currently canon)
A defense for Han shooting first is that he was kinda being held a gun point. What would you rather do, shoot first and not risk injury to your self, or risk having your head blown apart just so you can say “he shot first”
addition to book of the whills theory: all of the star wars movies are technically translations into english because the common galactic language would likely not be english. this explains discrepancies like “what the hell” or “geez” as it is a translator drawing cultural parallels in translation.
@@SophisticatedGoat222 even as a kid i always thought that lol. bc theres no way all these aliens and humans on different planets speak english, especially with different accents. its like we're just watching it dubbed.
English is a pretty good language for galactic society to speak, along with Latin. I'm told both are horrible twisted amalgamations of several other languages which were spread throughout the world through conquest, and grew bloated with the fat of words picked up from conquered nations--and nations that had in turn, conquered the English and Romans previously.
The common galactic language is English. It's called "Basic" and most aliens in the Star Wars universe speak it. They just choose to use their own languages.
One thing is that Leia did not kill Luuke; it was actually Mara Jade, who was still feeling Palpatines influence years after his death to kill Luke Skywalker. The end of her arc sees her fulfilling this last request, being freed of the dark influence, AND allowing her to reconcile with her relations with the real Luke.
15:22 I like to think that the helmets storm troopers wear are just really hard to see through. Luke even says in a new hope when the go to save Leiah, that he can't see a thing in his stormtrooper helmet. It was ad-libbed by Mark Hamil, but I think it explains a lot.
About Storm Trooper aim: Captain Rex while wearing their armor also shoots poorly. When Ezra comments on this, Rex complains its the helmet and throws it at a Storm Trooper and his aim is greatly improved. Makes sense, as Palpatine usually has things made to look intimidating or scary instead of feasibility.
Out of universe explanation is onviously plot armor, but "stormtrooper aim actually has a few explanations in-universe. Stormtrooper helmets had to adjust to head shape of each trooper, so every soldier had to input a code, whenever they got a new helmet and make it fit to their head shape. Stolen helmets couldn't be adjusted, so they were usually ill-fitting to the wearer. As for aim of actual Stormtroopers, in the moments of their highest levels of "incompetence" that is in ANH and TESB they were under orders to let the rebels go (so Falcon could be tracked to Yavin) and to miss Luke (an accidental headshot by any trooper would ruin Vader's plans of converting Luke)
@@HonestHappyHater But they're clones are they not? Shouldn't they be gentically modified to be the best killing machines? Or is this in regard to the original stormtroopers?
@@muertolamento The same principle applies to both regular stormtroopers, and Rex. You can't be a "killing machine" if half of your vision is obstructed
Here's a fun theory: Am and Karre, the titular twins from Star Wars Visions, might be clones of Luke. Am has a flashback that shows they were created by a group who look like the Sith Eternal cult. AKA, the guys who also cloned Palpatine.
The original sequel plans weren’t that palpatine survived, it was that he had a plan for when he died That plan was for him to be cloned and “come back” as a much younger and more powerful version of himself
@facepalmer1580 lol holy shit this was fucking 5 th months god your stalker. Lol says the same one not even reading the top comment dumbass so jokes on you lol literally the same thing you people are idk funny when your mad. And about concussions then will your your argument is both oxymoron and paradox circle argument, which means you have failed failed at trying to convince me because all what you’re saying is a paradox. Star Wars isn’t the real world dumb ass so it can’t have wear a spear can transfer their soul to to another body.
While it seems pretty badass to have Padme being Boba Fett or well using the madalorian armor I think its 100% absolutely hilarious to have actual Boba be Luke's mom
The most memorable prediction I remember from that Mad Magazine article (which was released between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi) was that they thought it would be revealed that Vader wasn't Luke's father, but that Luke's actual father was The Force itself. Amazingly, they were only off by one generation.
i dont know where i saw this, but i read somewhere that the entire story of starwars was actually r2d2 telling the tale of star wars long after the battle of endor, and thats why we see a long time ago in a galaxy far far away
Endor isn’t the moon, it’s the planet that the _moons_ of Endor orbit. This is why the moon with the Ewoks is called “The Forest Moon of Endor” and not just “Endor”. Additionally, the Moon that the Death Star Ruins crashed on was not The Forest Moon with the Ewoks, it was Kef Bir, the ocean moon of Endor. That’s probably where the horses came from.
There should be a iceberg for original extended storylines, it gets pretty crazy. There are some really cool books that some people probably haven’t heard of
Got any suggestions? I used to read some of them when I was younger. I remember reading about that one guy who was a Jedi then became a sith then became a grey Jedi.
Also on the Boba Fett killed Luke’s relatives there’s the line by Vader to him “no disintegrations”, which is oddly specific, considering we only ever see one disintegration, and he only says it to Boba.
Gay clones theory is also def false. There are entire comics about clones having children with Jedi and then having to help them escape Order 66 (among other things like the bar shown in the clone wars maybe being a place for clone “kithing”). I personally love the one that is about the aforementioned half clone child in which they have to fight to flee order 66. It explains that love is stronger than the inhibitor (or implies it), which, cool.
@@thegrekorian2465 There's also no way it could ever be made true. As a bisexual myself, I'm okay with limited to no lgbt representation in Star Wars, someone being gay, trans, etc. in real life or fiction will always ruffle someone's feathers and it isn't worth the hassle. I don't need or want to see Star Wars fans telling people like me I suck for simply existing. Even if someone like Dave Filoni said "Hey there were gay clones" we'd never actually see it since Disney doesn't want gay people they can't easily remove from their shit. Also the idea of gay clones falling in love with each other makes me VERY uncomfortable considering their shared DNA...
@@The_Prime_Kiwi The idea of clones being gay for one another is so screwed lmao. They share DNA and all view eachother as brothers. They're a family in this war together.
The "Bobba Fett killed Luke's Aunt and uncle" is a good theory. I always thought the stormtroopers shoot them and burn the corpses so it looked like they where killed by Tusken raiders
Nah, both in the EU and in Disney's canon the Empire had flametroopers, so Boba being related is really unlikely considering Vader dislikes Boba himself desintegrating people It's likely Vader burnt down the Lars because of his traumatic experience with his mother in AotC
Human Jabba fun fact: Han always walked around his backside with no issue, but when they turned him into a slug to tie in with Return, they realized the tail would get in the way, so they digitally raised and lowered Han to simulate him stepping on Jabba's tail and gave him a pained reaction.
@@jonahlancaster2651 Heir to the Empire and Dark Force Rising were great, but Last Command completely lost me. That's why I choose to appreciate the silver lining of Disney canon being able to keep Thrawn and get rid of that awful cloning business. Apart from TRoS ruining that again, of course...
Honestly if you look at it from the perspective that Luke fighting his clone is his vision in the Dagobah cave where he fights himself realized, its not a bad little side story. But it was also one of the cheesier era's for Star Wars extended media so theres a lot of garbage to sift through too in that arc.
@Shifty Kubaz if you take all of the crap that is in legends, it far outstrips whatever you may think of Disney. As in, there is practically no contest. Dozens of writers making hundreds of books and comics over the course of several decades made a lot of bad stuff, stuff that makes anything you may think is bad throughout all of the movies look like master craft.
To add to the "Original Editions Never Existed" point, Star Wars was constantly being edited. There are even some lines in the mono track that are cut from the stereo version of the theatrical prints. Before the special editions there were still a lot of small changes made between home video releases. There are a few different projects that aim to make the original editions available (Harmy's despecialized edition, 4k77, and others) that all have different interpretations of how the theatrical versions of the movie should be preserved. It's kind of like its own Ship of Theseus.
This is kind of funny cause Obi Wan is played by Ewan McGregor, who was also in Moulin Rouge and the love interest was named Satine. I don't know a single thing about Star War but this first popped into my mind and I just had to share it.
5:18 for anyone who cares it wasnt qui gon jin who ordered the clones it was sifo dyas. the reason the kaminoins were so hospitable and expected obi wan was because they were under the assumption that it was the jedi order and republic themselves who sanctioned and paid for the clone army even tho they were ordered in complete secrecy by a jedi who was being manipulated by the sith and then killed (count dooku used sifo dyas’s paranoia about the sith threat to get him to agree to go to kamino) the clone army was paid for by the banking clan who was controlled by palpatines then sith master darth plagueis right before palpatine killed him in his sleep. thats also why the clone army was implanted with inhibitor chips to make them turn on their jedi generals when the order was given because it was all apart of the sith grand plan to take over the galaxy. its a bit convoluted but its honestly what makes palpatine such an amazing villain because he was just soo smart cunning and charismatic that he was able to take control of the galaxy right under the jedi orders nose and destroy them almost to extinction without really much opposition except for two duels which he used to paint the jedi as the bad guys in the empire. idk not a huge palpatine fan in terms of his force abilities and power but more soo a fan of how he was able to manipulate his way to emperor with one of the strongest force users as an apprentice. love your channel btw even more so cause you did this iceberg.
Theory: Anakin isn't the chosen one. This is shown in The Phantom Menace during the dice roll scene with Watto. Qui Gon is shown using the force to make the dice land on blue when it was clearly about to land on red. He wanted to be right about having found the chosen one. Anakin's subsequent downfall is the force punishing the Jedi for imposing their will on fate.
@@volublelizard2374 Probably. There's also a chance Mace was the chosen one, but when he died before fulfilling his purpose the force created another, that being Luke. Either way, Luke is the one who eventually brought balance to the force, so I think it's fair to say he was the real chosen one in the end. Of course this is only relevant if you subscribe to my theory about Anakin not being the chosen one.
@@jakefoley9539 I don't think Mace was going to kill Palpatine, all sources seem to suggest Palpatine intentionally fell to the ground and lost at that moment so that Anakin would see him and feel sorry for him, easily solidifying the choice of Anakin killing Windu. Palpatine knew Anakin's weakness was his empathy after all, so when he felt Anakin was there he faked his loss. Recently there was also stuff released about George Lucas giving info about power levels for all the prequel Jedi, and in that Mace Windu is a level 8 in terms of power while Palpatine is a level 9. So I think that's the final nail in the coffin that Palpatine staged his "loss" in that fight.
Personally I think that cannon and legends being separated was one of the only good things Disney did with Star Wars. Have you read legends? That shit gets so fucking weird and sure some things that actually made sense are now no longer cannon but honestly that is overpowered by how now all the weirdest shit in legends is now not cannon.
They coulda kept the old republic law since that’s probably what most people liked the most. Most people don’t really care about dark krate but they’ll go nuts over revan.
Overall though I massively disagree, because although there was some absolutely crazy shit, it was almost like Star Wars was in the public domain, like you can write any story you wanted and George considered it canon, but now everything that isn't made by a corporation just doesn't matter. Not trying to sjitt on Disney Star Wars media as I actually like a lot of it, but it just feels a lot more soulless as an experience, like we got something that was in the public domain and gave it to the most greedy corporation on the planet.
Ok so just wanted to point out that that shot is not the only reference to ducks on Naboo in The Phantom Menace given that one of the characters also uses the idiom "we'll be sitting ducks." It's just consistency
My theory should be on there. "Solo: A Star Wars STORY" is exactly that, a story. This story first hand being told by Han to people in the Cantina before the Greedo interaction. Basically stroking his ego and telling his own version of the story. The major events that happened would happen ultimately but he falsifies other info to make him look more courageous and badass. Thinking about it like this makes the movie better. Especially the "how he got his name" scene.

Did Lanniks exist in any other media pre-The Clone Wars animated series? If not, it’s possible they created Master Even Piell as a nod to the card/token/whatever it was that listed Yoda as a Lannik.
If you give them the right outlets (to keep their gaze from wandering to their brothers), then an army of gay clones would work way better, because then you're not pissing in the gene pool the instant the clones get out into the galaxy.
The poor shots theory I find most entertaining is that the troopers were told not to kill Vader's kids. Like, they knew they were his kids and didn't want to hit the boss's kids otherwise he'd destroy them or something.
Fun Fact: Due to an Easter Egg in the Clone Wars making the Mandalorian canon, the Holiday Special is also Canon, as it is referenced by Boba Fett in, you guessed it, Mandalorian.
There’s also a line in TPM about “sitting ducks”, and there was a scrapped line from obi wan in a new hope that went something like “even a duck has to be taught how to swim”. So yeah ducks are fully canon and have 2 wookieepedia pages
Im a firm believer that qui gon jinn would have made anakin become the strongest force user and the greatest jedi, but once he began his battle with darth maul he begins the duel of anakins fate, represented by the soundtrack playing which is actually called duel of the fates
Here's one for you that not a lot of people talk about. We know in TROS that Palpatine wanted Rey to kill him so he could possess her with Sith Posession. So comes the question.. was his original intentions for Anakin to use the same technique on him once he got Anakin to peak strength in the force in both physical and metaphysical?
I think the TROS Novelization kinda goes into this being his the plan for pre-lava Anakin, then later the plan for when he was trying to get Luke to "strike me down in anger."
My peraonal theory is that the reason the light is able to win against the dark side while the dark side much bigger and stronger is that the Force is trying to balance itself, giving individuals of the lesser side more power and those of the greater side less power, thus creating a cycle.
Except the light side IS the only balance, as stated by Lucas. It's not Yin/Yang, it's harmony and discord. Balance = harmony which means the Force is only balanced when the dark side is gone.
Star Wars 1313 being cancelled was the beginning of my disdain for Disney’s Star Wars. I was mega excited for that game and I hope someone makes their own version, or a game with a similar premise.
Not making Jar Jar a Sith Lord because people hated him would have been incredibly stupid if that was the plan. It would have set him up in the role even better and proved the audience was right to hate him, thus making the audience happy!
The throne room fight as a sex scene? Let's review: Heavy panting, lots of random guys with interesting toys, sloppy swordplay, someone's been split in half...
@Wendigoon Ive been watching for a while now and just wanted to say that so far Blood Meridan episode is my favourite. Well done mate! the videos are great
The Ewoks did have real world horses in Legends (the Ewok movies had lots of real world animals), but what the Resistance ride in the Battle of Exegol are Orbaks, which aren't quite horses (they have tusks), although they are portrayed by horses. Also, the troops riding them were from Kef Bir, which is a different moon than the one with Ewoks.
@@ericdickey6523 I mean, regardless of where they come from, riding a "horse" on top of a star destroyer and somehow winning is still kind of a dumb concept. I get that the blasters are for anything fighter sized or larger but the ship could have easily initiated a roll and dumped everyone off the side.
@@Relgar47 it’s not a dumb concept, if they roll everything in the ship will hit the ceiling and then the floor, violently. Plus using horses makes sense, at least as much sense as a bunch of Ewoks killing storm troopers with rocks
Holy hell I had to scroll so far for this. How in the world did this RU-vid video think Kef Bir was the same as Endor’s forest moon?? Endor doesn’t have oceans, or plains, or like anything else in common with Endor. And they show ewoks on endor right at the end in the victory montage. Put me off for the rest of the video
@@Relgar47 I imagine doing such a maneuver while within the atmosphere of a planet would be a pretty bad idea. Everything inside would be subject to the planet’s gravity and would most likely be damaged. Plus, those ships were pretty tightly packed. The maneuver would have been difficult to pull off in the first place.
As for the clones not having kids, I think it’s important to remember their they were basically like 10 years old too. They age twice as quick, but are technically a child slave army.
4:05 I would like to add on that in the ROTS novelization, (which is based on earlier scripts of ROTS before the final script), there's a line in which Palpa tries to insinuate to Ani that Obi Wan is sleeping with Padmé. I believe that the intention in the novel is not that they are actually sleeping together, but Palpatine is simply using both Ani's attachment to Padmé and his master to manipulate his emotions. However, it can be interpreted that the two might have had a less than platonic relationship. "'It seems that Master Kenobi has been in contact with a certain Senator who is known to be among the leaders of this cabal. Apparently, very close contact. The rumor is that he was seen leaving this Senator's residence this very morning, at an... unseemly hour.' 'Who?' Anakin opened his eyes and sat forward. 'Who is this Senator? Let's go question him.' 'I'm sorry, Anakin. But the Senator in question is, in fact, a her. A woman you know quite well, in fact." Not super essential to the theory because the novelization isn't Canon, but I came across it when I was looking for Bisexual Obi Wan stuff and it stuck with me as an interesting idea that didn't come to fruition.
5:02 Correction, Qui Gon was never involved in the purchasing of the Clones from Kamino, that was Sifo Diaz, Count Dooku's Jedi Friend. Sifo Diaz purchased the clones in secret after he experienced visions of Order 66 being carried out by what he thought was "An Army of the Sith". What he didn't know is that that army was the very same clone army he purchased for the Jedi to fight the army he saw in his visions. Since Dooku was his friend Sifo Diaz eventually told him of his plans, and once Dooku joined Sidious he had Sifo Diaz assassinated and took over the cloning program, that probably around the same time the chips that made the clones execute Order 66 were created. 5:21 This theory is somewhat true but not quite, in canon it is confirmed that Plagueis did try to create life using the Dark Side but during the process the Force itself sensed his ill intentions and retaliated by creating "The Chosen One" in Shmi. This was the Force's way of combating what Plagueis was trying to do. This is why Sidious doesn't even mention Anakin in The Phantom Menace until he meets him face to face, he found out about the Chosen One being found by Qui Gon after the battle of Naboo had concluded. This is when Palpatine's old plan was scrapped and a new one was created revolving around the old one, essentially he just updated his plan to fit the new elements that were introduced.
I’m reference to the whole Jedi being able to move through time thing,there was a comic awhile back where a force ghost (I can’t remember if it’s Qui Gon or Yoda) tells Luke that when you become a force ghost you stop experiencing time as you once did. He said that you experience all of time at once because you are literally one with the force. What we see as force ghosts is them temporary leaving the force to project an image of themselves onto a certain time period. They just don’t stay long because once you become one with the force you will always yearn to be apart of it again if you leave. So it totally makes sense that a Jedi could time travel if they possibly learned how to become a force ghost while remaining alive
I’m late to this video, but when you mentioned Disney making SW less brutal, I immediately thought of the Kenobi show. I love that they brought back some of those genuinely scary moments.
I like this change in videos. I normally watch your horror videos so this was interesting to see! I don't understand most of the information but I will be doing my own research!
Not only did a race of ET's appear in the Prequel Trilogy, ET goes Trick or Treating with Elliot in "ET the Extra Terrestrial" and when he sees a kid dressed as Yoda, he gets excited and goes "Home! home! home!"
8:51 fun fact, horses have been on Endor for around 35 years if you take into account the Ewoks TV movies. I was forced to watch them not to long ago and my first question was "There's horses?"
15:05 I’d always assumed that during all the big chase scenes, the Stormtroopers were missing on purpose because Vader had given the order to pursue Luke / lure him to where Vader wanted him to be, without killing him.
Endor having horses is weird but Dagobah has earth snakes and that's fine. Edit: The World Between Worlds doesn't let you change the timeline, it's a predetermined loop. Like the Time Turner in Harry Potter
The video got that entire part wrong. That isn’t Endor, it’s a different planet in the same system, called Kef Bir. And they aren’t horses either, take a closer look, they are aliens that look like horses.
I watched a video a guy did on the terrible shots of stormtroopers. They're actually not bad shots at all. Our most highly trained soldiers in the US are a lot worse than them. Real world soldiers take hundred of shots to kill one target. Storm troopers take on average six. Of course there's some plot armor for the main characters. But the rebels are demonstrably a lot worse than Stormtroopers.
This is due to the range of typical combat in the real world. In CQC, combat is much more deadly and precise, but advanced militaries avoid this for a reason and use other means.
Honestly don't like the original plans for the sequels. I think it's cool to see that Leia trained to be a Jedi but we need to remember that her main duty was in the Senate as a politician, not being a Jedi. Everyone has their preferences though.
My headcanon for Stormtroopers being terrible shots has always been that they can't see properly out of those helmets. I remember Luke, when disguising himself as a Stormtrooper, says something about it being hard to see out of the helmet. It's dumb and makes no sense but I'm clinging to it.
The actual canon is that stormtroopers have unparalleled precision. Obi-Wan says so straight out in the first movie, and he knows what he's talking about. That's why Vader and his stormtroopers are feared throughout the galaxy. The reason you don't see the stormtroopers gun down the heroes in the first film is, if they had, it would have ended the plot real quick... (And also there's the idea that they were instructed to let Leia & co. escape so they could be tracked and followed to the rebel base, but the troopers sure seemed willing to be mowed down en masse if that's the reason...)
George Lucas actually confirmed the Vietnam War analogue in an interview. He said the empire takes inspiration from America and the rebels from the Viet-Cong
While reading all of the Inheritance Cycle (Eragon book series) I started to see all of the Star Wars connections, and while I still enjoyed all of the books, you can't deny that some of the plot points are a complete drag and drop from Star Wars. I'm glad more people noticed it lol.
