Why Palpatine Said Luke was STRONGER in the Dark Side Than Anakin - Star Wars Explained 

It does. Most of the sith hated the jedi so much. I'm pretty sure someone like sidious would've thrown up after having his meetings with the jedi council when he was still hiding his identity.

Absolutely. George Lucas wrote it precisely that way. You can mark Palpy’s sadistic joy turn to fury by the expression on his face as Luke sees his fate if continued down the Dark path.

Definitely. There's no such thing as "Jedi fury" - unless we're talking about Mace Windu's Vaapad, a style notoriously difficult to master to such a degree that every Jedi who used it, except Mace, fell to the dark side. "A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack." -Master Yoda

Im sure for a second or two his eyes turned yellow

I believe that after seeing the wires from vaders wrist he truly understood the lesson that dooku thought his father in a way.

​@slappedegg1056 Turning to the dark side, is bad for your liver. 🤒

this guy gets it

Exactly. Filoni's opinion doesn't matter. Lucas opinion does. I consider anything after Disney bought it is none canon

@@chriscepec1655 Filoni is the new Lucas. Filoni is the new author of Star Wars.

@@chriscepec1655 bruh Lucas has retconned himself out of existence and we see the difference between him being in total control and having people edit out his dumbass ideas in prequel trilogy vs original trilogy

⁠​⁠​⁠@@minnumseerrundpeople edit out his dumb ass ideas for the prequel trilogy? So you’re saying the original trilogy is better ? Just curious.

@@TwhistyyHDI think they’re saying the original trilogy is better since there were more people involved to improve scripts and edit outs Lucas’ dumb ideas, whereas Lucas had a lot more creative control in the prequels leading to them being worse.

"As you wish" "Everything is proceeding as I've had foreseen"

That is pretty much telling Vader to kill Palpatine, Luke, or himself - given the Rule of Two. Because if Luke is that strong, no way is he only an Inquisitor.

Vader: (He's trying to Dooku me?)

*After Anakin killed Sidious* Luke: Apparently, the Emperor didn't see that coming. Hahahaha!!! *Years later - episode 9* Sidious: I did see that coming, young Skywalker. Hahahaha!!!! Rey: What did you say to me? Sidious: Nothing. I said young Skywalker, not young Palpatine.

@@recoil53 except there's no rule of two in the original trilogy. Hell, even the word Sith wasnt a thing.

"So be it....Jedi"

Anakin return to being a Jedi

Then Palpatine returns to being a Sith.

⁠@@shawn092182was it really returned or just Palpi doing Palpi things?!😂

Sure you will... We have cookies 🍪😅

​@hackman669 cookies are the most powerful weaponn in star wars

Vader was putting on a show, while testing Luke.

Truth be told, the Emperor should've been suspicious when Vader reported that a small rebel squad got by the checkpoint and Luke was them, which Sidious found it strange that Vader sensed Luke and he(the Emperor) did not.

The jedi didn’t ignore the dark. They literally had a man make a form just because he had dark tendencies so he could stay in the light and still fight effectively in his own way.

@@firstnamelastname9237 hiding anything dark side related and not allowing the study of them, essentially pretending they didn't exist would be ignoring. And the Jedi also ignored emotions because of fear of the dark side, but both Qui-gon and Luke accepted emotions and used them to strengthen their ties to the force.

@@davelange8368 So, not something they actually did then. Mace windu literally being a prime example of that. Juyo itself has a dark origin. Some stuff was restricted, but not that much was genuinely forbidden. Additionally, it was restricted because dark sided artifacts and knowledge can, with their mere presence, corrupt those not prepared for them. And dark sided knowledge is more likely to turn an unprepared jedi or padawan too quickly, and as evidenced by how often Luke's jedi fell to dark artifacts, the jedi of the prequel era were exactly correct in that concern. Legends wise, Luke's jedi had a TERRIBLE track record for going dark sided compared to the prequel era of jedi. It was an extremely common occurence that one was either turned dark sided, or mind controlled by someone or something. They also fully showed they existed, they just restricted access to them. So....what any rational person would do with stuff that can turn an average padawan into a knight or master level threat. But they didn't ignore emotions. As mentioned, there's literally a jedi known for his love of fighing, and not only do multiple jedi explicitly (and openly) express friendships and even familial or cultural connections. They also encourage enjoyment of things, many jedi drink and eat well, young jedi play games and have friendships, many jedi have had pets. The acceptance of the existence of emotions, but refusal to bow to them, both existed during the prequel era and in Luke's. Luke was more lax on formal and more permanent attachments like Marriage, but even in that area the jedi were not all encompassing on their strictness over it. The idea jedi tried to pretend emotions shouldn't exist is basically a fan invention, the films directly contradict that with obi wan, nearly the most traditional jedi imaginable, flat out saying he loved anikan, and how often jedi just full on ignored or encouraged the relationships people had only warning about being attached, but not about being friends or enjoying company. Jedi's usage of attachment is pretty clearly more specific than just 'oh you like person BAD.'

Dude wtf. Spoiler alert

@camconvo dude it's been out longer than I have been alive so failure on your part..

@@darthkrevan710 you missed the joke

@camconvo not a good joke...

@@darthkrevan710 go back to your moms basement

😂 his dark master

Kind of makes sense considering Obi-wan dies early on in Luke's training I guess some lightsaber training came from Yoda, not sure how much though so maybe it's because Luke is self taught if he is which would explain some things

It is the way of the sequels.

I figured it was running out the clock so that way vader and the emperor would be caught in the explosion if things went ass over teakettle

Yeah, I said the same about Anakin, when I watched the prequels. EU Luke is just another “more powerful than anyone,” character, who has the same story happen to him, with his own son. It’s all simple writing, that was for ages 7 and up, until the 90’s. Palpatine’s clone story was just as bad as the Disney one. I still get a laugh at the He-Man lookalike, Palpatine cloned to use as his vessel. 😄

​@@CorbCorbin Prequalls really did not changed Anakin or Vader. They just expand the character. Even ıf you did not like it,Clonewars fixed all the issues with the character. Besides that Disney's fault. Of everything can choose from EU,like Thrawn or Darth Krayt,they choose the worst plot.

And who could blame you.. I agree

What's so bad about NA Luke ? Or AU Luke? Even UK Luke 😂?

It's unfortunate we got Jake and not Luke

Disney has done far more damage then the empire ever did

@@calebdonovan7301^

​@@calebdonovan7301😂man this is so true

@@calebdonovan7301they’re so trash they couldn’t even give baylan skole a proper entry. They gave him some knock off vader intro. Baylan made the ahsoka series. Sucks he died

Yeah it blows me away people have considered the sequels apart of Star Wars. Lucas himself said there is nothing past episode VI. Besides the sequels being the most abysmal pieces of crap ever to hit the big screen.

“Your thoughts betray you. Your feelings for them are strong especially for……your sister. So, you have a twin sister. Obi wan was wise to hide her from me. Now his failure is complete. If you won’t turn to the dark side, then perhaps she will!” I would’ve lost my shit too.

Horseshit

Filoni is pretty respectful of EU... it's Disney itself, specifically Kathleen Kennedy, that ruins things. You see Filoni trying to merge the EU and Disney cannon though

But what happened on the 2nd death star. He was still intrigued on how his father fell to the dark side. He had small taste of it, in dark Empire he was controlled by it in some way. Even through he betrayed the emperor! But your right he should do a holocron on it!😊👍

We do not talk about that.

@@Vilgax00 True! But it would be nice to hear about or at least touch on a little more!🤷‍♂️

Filoni describes the Luke of the OT in that scene, and how Lucas wanted to the audience to perceive it. Ryan’s Luke was a guy, ruled by fear and limitations that never really evolved from the Empire Strikes Back. Note how he highlights that Luke believed throughout that there was still good in his father and uses selflessly casts his lightsaber aside forcing Anakin to choose to be the father. Ryan’s Luke would’ve believed him to be irredeemable and try to kill him just to get away, if he ever even managed to crawl out from under the stairs.

Facts

Filoni himself fell to the dark side, and it's a damned shame too.

In the RotJ novelization, Luke used his hands to absorb the Emperor's lightning much as we saw Yoda do in RotS. But Sidious then increased his lightning's intensity and overwhelmed Luke's defenses.
