The Twins were created unnaturally with Force Magick by Those Witches, The Force created Anakin naturally on its own, they wrote themselves into a corner when they said The Twins came from “the thread” which is the witch’s name for the force. They could’ve said they’re unnatural Products of Force Magick, instead of saying they came from The Force, as that implies it was natural like The Virgin Birth that is Anakin. What's as convoluted is that those witches created them with the force rather then them being created by the force itself so it implies they accomplished the ability to Create life by violating the force, something The Sith failed to do. Wanna see how it gets more complicated? 😂: In George’s Canon (G-Canon) Anakin was a complete virgin birth, & the entire idea of creating life by the Darkside was apparently a bill of goods Palpatine tried to sell Anakin according to George, which means The Entire Darth Plagueis Story in G-Canon could be fabricated by Palpatine. Though There was an early draft in Revenge Of The Sith' s Script where it was revealed that Palpatine actually did create Anakin through The Force and was his father but George changed that That's probably The influence behind that Darth Vader comic in Disney Canon you were referring to. Expanded Universe 's Canon, Palpatine & Plagueis tried to dominate the force and create life Dark side but The Force rejected their attempts & created Anakin to destroy The Sith as a result making The Prophecy true. Then we have Disney Canon where like you mentioned it's implied in That Darth Vader entirely later. In The through The Comic, Issue#25 at least that Palpatine was able to create Anakin through The Force, and since The Acolyte had Plagueis watching those witches do it , means Plagueis probably learned it and taught this ability to Palpatine. In this case I prefer The EU’s version of events (despite being a George Canon purist) because it establishes The Sith tried to create life from the force & it ironically caused The Force to react negatively creating a chosen one meant to wipe them out! G-Canon & The Expanded Universe Versions make the most sense, since anyone creating life from the force instead of the force creating life naturally on its own is highly unlikely in Star Wars, regardless of The Force or Force Magick. Force Magick in G-Canon is established to be unstable by its unconventional nature, while in The EU, Force Magick is just The Darkside used differently. Disney Canon has made Force Magick very OP in creating life automatically from The Force like the magic comes straight out of Marvel or DC.
@@variant glad we see things the same way. I hope in some way we either get a reboot or get to see an alternate timeline where the universe is some sort of hybrid of all the good parts of Disney and Legends But that’s like a 1/1000000000 chance unfortunately 😢
Psh, almost everyone were saying the OT were the only good parts of Star Wars like 10 years ago. The IP has been dying since the third movie for some people
10/10. A+ video. If they only used George’s scripts and just left the EU alone, Disney would have a goldmine on their hands. The biggest “what if” in pop culture history is now easily “what if George never sold Lucasfilm.”
fun fact, me and friend (last time we hung out) went to watch this movie after all the hype we had a serious "disturbance in the force" look on our face. Something was just not right
I totally agree with everything you had to say Disney has too many cooks in the kitchen, they should have stuck with George & his ideas for the original last three and consulted with him on all the series that they were doing, I feel this would have made it stay legendary...
My first memory of Star Wars (when it was only Star Wars) was going into the theater with my parents and seeing the end credits and starting to cry. When my parents asked why, i said we missed the movie....not realizing that my 7 yr old mind didn't know that movies played more than once a day. I grew up with the EU and still listen to Heir to the Empire (imo, the singularly BEST trilogy out side of the main one) on Audible once a year. I tried to connect with what Disney put out, but it just didn't have that sense of universality, or epic stories of good vs. evil i found prior to 2012. But again, that's me.
I really try with Disney. But I can't have faith in them. Especially after the abysmal Disney trilogy. Ever since then, I have had no confidence in them. I don't blame Daisy Ridley or John Boyega. They were victims of terrible writing. It was the way the legacy characters were treated. And trying to make the Disney heros relevant. But you don't disrespect legacy characters, especially Luke Skywalker.
Disney ruined Star Wars by 1. disrespecting the original heroes we loved 2. ignoring continuity 3. attacking the fans because we HATED the Disney shows/movies
I think they just need one voice directing the way the story goes from here. It seems like you got one person in charge of these stories and another person doing these stories and so on. Let's get a Feige type of person who is in control of the main direction the story is going. And I think that it's no coincidence that the best stories being told are coming from Filoni.
I don't understand why Disney felt that it was necessary to deconstruct Leia, Han, and Luke in the sequel trilogy. Destroying the original trilogy characters was a extremely short sighted decision. IMO Disney lost their audience by doing that.
Not just Han, Luke and Leia, but Obi-Wan, Anakin and Padmé as well. If Disney thinks this works canon-wise then Anakin may as well have stayed on Tatooine with his mom. He would have met the Lars and they all would have been able to buy Anakin and Shmi’s freedom.
Yes disney made some shit, like the sequels but the real problem is culture wars and shitty youtubers spreading hate and shame on you variant for following in those footsteps i used to like this channel
Your summarizations of Star Wars and the various comic sagas have the perfect balance of story, easter eggs and side comments. Other channels are either too banal with word for word reenactments or too much embellished side comments. Great content. Subscribed!
And with all the Disney trampling and chaos going on in the star wars is what led many hardcore fans to apologize to George Lucas for driving him to sell his beloved creation for not understanding his artistic vision.
The prequels were bad…except for 3. That was before Disney. That was George Lucas. The threequels started off good, then Riann Johnson ruined it with the second throwing the whole first movie out, and forcing the third to be a disjointed mess. That was Lucas films helmed by Kathleen Kennedy not Disney. Disney owns Lucas Films, they don’t run it. Just like they own the MCU, but it’s ran by Kevin Feige. I know everyone wants to blame Disney but, the fault lies on Kathleen Kennedy. Even then though, she has had way more hits than misses. The real burden of Star Wars is the fans. There used to be a debate about who had the worst fans, Star Wars or Star Trek…Star Wars fans have said hold my beer, brandy, gin, whiskey, rum and weed.
I agree with you almost 100%. But I feel like they’re doing the same thing with Marvel. They finally made a movie that everyone wanted to watch Deadpool/Wolverine and they decided that it is also a “one-off”. WHY?! WHY?!
I really think the bulk of the Disney Star Wars hate comes from the prequel kids. For a lot of us that grew up with the original trilogy, the prequels don’t have the real Star Wars feel. Heck, the Holiday Special and Ewok movies feel more like REAL Star Wars. And though there’s a lot of bad stuff from the Disney era. I’d say it’s 50/50 with the good, which includes some of the first Star Wars we’ve gotten since the 80’s that really feels like Star Wars. Stuff like Mando and Rogue One. Andor is great, but as a Star Wars show, I think Mando’s first two seasons beat it out easily, and it feels far more like Star Wars than the prequels ever did.
I am sick and tired of Prequel revisionism. They were trash then and are trash now, and for the same reasons - terrible acting, terrible plots, terrible direction. No amount of Disney making worse products makes them any better.
Star wars theory has been instrumental in keeping me in Star Wars. I really want to love it but well, Disney happened. At least we still have Middle earth and tolkein except for the rungs of power garbage thing that happened
I'm just going to say this, everything that came before the Disney acquisition is the true Star Wars canon and everything that Disney shit out is the legends canon.
Star Wars is the best franchise to nerd over in Pop Culture, until Disney came knocking on the Door. And since then, Star Wars has suffered so much Reckless hate. Pardon my LOTR nature. The only way for Star Wars to get back on track and do something completely new. Such as doing a new Trilogy that sets around the Old Republic, specifically the Eternal Empire or Heir to the Empire. For this to happen, Disney needs to break up with Star Wars.
As far as the two separate continuities go, I prefer to combine them into one ultimate timeline so that we can know where things came from and where they're going
I remember when i was 6 or 7 and i saw "A New Hope" for the first time with my dad and i LOVED every second of it. It introduced me to a galaxy far far away. I want to love Star Wars again like i did back then, but if Disney keeps releasing duds like The Acolyte, the star wars i remembered will be a distant memory
Make a tv adaptation of the jedi apprentice novels- you’re welcome. For that matter, hire Jude Watson to help you generate prequel era stories. Also- darth maul shadow hunter- excellent. Strays a bit from the kids side of things but pretty good. Even if they’re one offs, they’re great. It would get people back into enjoying and embracing the star wars universe.
Why don’t we talk about how toxic the Star Wars fanbase became. They act like they’re the only part that matters. And that it’s not good unless they say it is. They act like they’re trying to save the franchise when in reality they make the lives of the actors and actresses a living nightmare. They made Jake Lloyd quit acting, Kelly Marie Tran quit social media. And they have the fucking audacity to say that they have every right to do what they do if the thing’s garbage. Bad movies don’t give you the right to be horrible towards the actors and actresses who star in them. Stop acting like you’re the only people who matter because you’re not
Omg shut up, don’t act like that doesn’t happen everywhere else. Off the top of my head Ik Joffrey from game of thrones quit acting bcuz of the threats and shit. Star Wars is just one of the biggest franchises ever and has been relevant for almost half a century so there’s gonna be more spotlight and more ppl to fall victim cuz Star Wars makes a lot of content
Rian Johnson was never going to direct The Rise of Skywalker. it was supposed to be Colin Trevorrow. His script, Duel of the Fates, can be found online if you know where to look.
My way to enjoy Star Wars is to set low expectations and not engage with it's fandom. Believe me, your enjoyment definitely improves, even though their output is kind of alright
The High Republic is almost exclusively in books and comics, OBVIOUSLY people who like Star Wars are probably just watching the movies and shows. Books and comics are at the bottom of the ladder in terms of popularity, High Republic or otherwise.
I'm really sad there won't be a second season of the Acolyte. The High Republic era has been really refreshing and needs to be explored more in live action. They need to move on from the Skywalker saga era.
You have to understand that Disney still has to pay royalties to Georgie boy when they use anything that falls under his intellectual property. That's why they push the characters that have been created since their purchase of Lucasfilm and even after George Lucas passes away they will likely still have to pay royalties to his estate. We'll only ever see the OG characters used sparingly
I think you were absolutely correct in a very PC way. I have a little more of a stronger view as to why but I will definitely appreciate your stance of "let's be civil." I would like to point out, you didn't really speak on the Ahsoka series. I love her character and that series could of been special. However, they just really went down a path that we true fans were...... disappointed. Finally, can Disney PLEASE STOP HAVING PEOPLE SURVIVE LIGHTSABER STABBINGS?!??!? Ok that sounds morbid BUT it's so ridiculous that everyone now are surviving a lightsaber stabbing.
Rogue One and Solo were great in my opinion. The sequel trilogy was the rollercoaster off the cliff. Branding existing canonical material as "Legends" was the destruction of the safety controls. Mando was the attempt to regain control. The Book of Boba Fett wasn't that bad for a spinoff idea, but it could have been better. Kenobi could have been far better. I haven't seen Andor or any of the other ones mentioned with it. The Acolyte was the only show that I was the most hesitant about. I love Sith, but after the Sequel trilogy I was extremely hesitant about the announcement of the show and I stopped watching this show partially through episode 3 and I have since washed my hands of this stuff.
Yes Jar-Jar was annoying but i think the biggest complaint with him and some of the other characters were the certain "vocal patterns" that imitated other ethnic groups.
Honestly speaking there really wasn’t any reason for Disney to kill off Han and Luke like that. You know this whole thing reminds me of George speech on Joy vs pleasure Disney keep spanning Star Wars content making more and more left unsatisfying that pleasure while pre buy out wasn’t high as Disney but it was something full filled when it just Episode 1 through 6 that can be recalled that makes actually happy it joy.
People never hated the stories, they hated the acting and dialogue. They've since come around. People hate disney Star Wars because none of it respects what came before, has no overarching plan, and relies on nostalgia bait.
@@NoCluYT Ah, people didn't like the prequels just about of the acting. They also didn't like a lot of the writing. I've heard numerous complaints about the virgin birth of Anakin in the Phantom Menace, Attack Of The Clones was boring, certain inconsistencies with some of the characters. I remember a lot of these people saying that Lucas should find another director for the movies. And George Lucas has stated how people didn't like his movies. So I would say it's a lot more than acting and dialogue.
Disney keeps cancelling Star Wars movies. I've lost count of the writers, directors, and producers that were hired and then fired. I have no faith that Mangold's movie will ever be filmed.
What do you think is the best thing about Star Wars with how it's an endless war between the Jedi and the Sith? Who do you think is the best hero and villain?
This was an amazingly great video and totally unexpected, not because you guys are bad at what you do, I really enjoy your content, but because you were extremely critical of Disney and what they have done with Star Wars in all of the correct ways. It’s the agenda, lack of continuity and lore of a beloved franchise as well as just plain shitting on it. Nobody is against female heroes, it’s like they forgot about Leia being completely badass, it’s the forcing of squares in circle holes, it just doesn’t work. If done correctly and without shitting on the franchise, they sure new ideas would be somewhat welcomed. I say somewhat because we all know how some of us fans can be lol. I had such high hopes for these movies and shows and im always disappointed. Here’s hoping the skeleton crew can redeem everything and that Kathleen Kennedy would be fired
I stopped with StarWars after Kenobi . Done with the bait and switch , done with Disney talking down on the fans, calling the passionate life long fans horrible names while attacking the fans and the political agenda. They pushed away a loyal fan base for a modern audience. Their lead actress for the acolyte made a DIS TRACK CALLING THE FANS RACIST and that was fine with Disney . The fans aren’t racist and they don’t hate women , they hate your poorly written characters based on fan fiction written on a kindergarten level .
there is no political agenda!! did you fall for them bigoted grifters who use horrible AI thumbnails big drops for water that is supposed to be tears and big yellow letters that say "WOKE" the majority of people on you tube can see through their shit and make fun of them but it looks like you fell for it, i feel sorry for you
As a fan of "Star Wars '",so I go back far for the first movie .But when comes Disney well did "Star Wars Rouge One " which is best movie from Disney ,and "The Mandalorian " which is space western ,so I have evolve since it first came out .And right now "The ThrawnTrilogy " in graphic novel ,and seems pretty as story .Like Thrawn should been the bad dude after Vader , since Darth Vader has always been a badass too me .Well the most Iconic "Star Wars " villain ever .

force and create life Dark side but The Force rejected their attempts & created Anakin to destroy The Sith as a result making The Prophecy true. Then we have
Disney Canon where like you mentioned
it's implied in That Darth Vader
entirely later. In The through The

G-Canon & The Expanded Universe
Versions make the most sense, since
anyone creating life from the force
instead of the force creating life
naturally on its own is highly
unlikely in Star Wars, regardless of
The Force or Force Magick. Force
Magick in G-Canon is established to
be unstable by its unconventional
nature, while in The EU, Force Magick
is just The Darkside used
differently. Disney Canon has made
Force Magick very OP in creating life
automatically from The Force like the
magic comes straight out of Marvel or
DC.
What about Geode? The Force using, High Council member, sentient rock from the High Republic? And now we know why its called the High Republic.
Any thoughts on Unification, a short fan film for Star Trek fans?
Rest in peace james earls Jones you will never be forgotten.
He cant be, as Disney has the rights to his voice.
I want to love Star Wars more than I want another Star Wars movie, and that sucks
True. But I'm pretty sure the Mando one is coming soon.
I started getting back into Star Trek and watching the Orville. I highly recommend the latter
Disney wasted Carrie Fishers last years as Leah and it makes me sad every time I think about it
@@pickedceasar1216 Agreed. They wasted Harrison Ford's final appearance as Solo as well.
@@variant glad we see things the same way.
I hope in some way we either get a reboot or get to see an alternate timeline where the universe is some sort of hybrid of all the good parts of Disney and Legends
But that’s like a 1/1000000000 chance unfortunately 😢
The Original Trilogy and The Prequels are my Star Wars.

@@fallonnp6092 thanks! Looks like I missed that one.
You know what the acolyte is. Not getting a season 2 so that's good. That is good
Glad it got cancelled
How Kathleen Kennedy still has a job is beyond me. If Star Wars was a sports team the Coach and GM would have been fired a few losing seasons ago.
She’s got some serious dirt on the Disney executives or something.
U forgot the ashoka series
I thought it was just me.
the massive influx of Star wars fans into 40k speaks volumes for how Disney is handling it.
Tales of the Jedi deserves more love.
Add in The clone wars, Rebels, The Bad Batch and Andor
10/10. A+ video. If they only used George’s scripts and just left the EU alone, Disney would have a goldmine on their hands. The biggest “what if” in pop culture history is now easily “what if George never sold Lucasfilm.”
Thanks!
I was so hopeful after the Force Awakens. I remember watching that twice in theaters. Loved it... and then the last jedi came out 😂
I’ve never been so hyped for a movie and so disappointed after watching it

Their own arrogance was their undoing.
Honestly, I'm glad they haven't done anything with Old Republic. Disney would just ruin it
Disney: "Fans are wrong! We know what fans want!"
Also Disney: "Where did all the fans go?"
That's it right there
more like, where are my women's
Lol😂
I love how this video doesn't shy away from criticizing Disney's decisions while still being fair. 🎯
When you lose middle of the road variant you've lost entirely

It would also help if they knew how to hire people that could write competent and interesting story's 😅.
Agreed
Disney just needs to retcon the sequels
Pretty ballsy from such a big channel. Respect.

Really appreciate that.
The Holiday Special was aired twice here in Chile, during Christmas time in the early '80's
I agree with you almost 100%. But I feel like they’re doing the same thing with Marvel. They finally made a movie that everyone wanted to watch Deadpool/Wolverine and they decided that it is also a “one-off”. WHY?! WHY?!
I love star wars. I don't love every thing in the movies, or the shows. But I will forever enjoy star wars from the good to the bad.
I really think the bulk of the Disney Star Wars hate comes from the prequel kids. For a lot of us that grew up with the original trilogy, the prequels don’t have the real Star Wars feel. Heck, the Holiday Special and Ewok movies feel more like REAL Star Wars. And though there’s a lot of bad stuff from the Disney era. I’d say it’s 50/50 with the good, which includes some of the first Star Wars we’ve gotten since the 80’s that really feels like Star Wars. Stuff like Mando and Rogue One. Andor is great, but as a Star Wars show, I think Mando’s first two seasons beat it out easily, and it feels far more like Star Wars than the prequels ever did.
This is such a great video. Needed to be said! 🎉
Thank you very much!
With the power of many, we can fix Star Wars!

The High Republic is almost exclusively in books and comics, OBVIOUSLY people who like Star Wars are probably just watching the movies and shows. Books and comics are at the bottom of the ladder in terms of popularity, High Republic or otherwise.
Disney just needs to give Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau complete control of "Star Wars" legacy characters and scripts.
They would need to Order 66 Kathleen Kennedy for that to happen lol
Fall = Disney saved y’all 52 minutes
41:00 Darth Vader and Anakin meeting again? lol
I'm really sad there won't be a second season of the Acolyte. The High Republic era has been really refreshing and needs to be explored more in live action. They need to move on from the Skywalker saga era.
Once a right show/Cinema comes, there is no stopping the loyal fans.😊
I stg everyone forgets kylo gets shot by chewie's bowcaster and killed his father right before fighting Ray. THAT'S WHY SHE WON.
Thats why I’ll wait for stuff to be fully out and garner an audience opinion before watching anything. Not just star wars.
Couldn't of this been a podcast episode? Is the podcast basically finished?
7,8,9 are the movies Disney sequel want and made which were combined armpit of jabba the hutt
17:51 the point when tar wars died
I've heard folks theorise that the sequel trilogy was constructed to zig in every way the prequel trilogy zagged. And that Abrams hates the prequels.
Star Wars has been reborn into something else the rise and the fall and the rebirth of Star Wars. I’m sure if you forgot that my friend.
You have to understand that Disney still has to pay royalties to Georgie boy when they use anything that falls under his intellectual property. That's why they push the characters that have been created since their purchase of Lucasfilm and even after George Lucas passes away they will likely still have to pay royalties to his estate. We'll only ever see the OG characters used sparingly
I think you were absolutely correct in a very PC way. I have a little more of a stronger view as to why but I will definitely appreciate your stance of "let's be civil." I would like to point out, you didn't really speak on the Ahsoka series. I love her character and that series could of been special. However, they just really went down a path that we true fans were...... disappointed. Finally, can Disney PLEASE STOP HAVING PEOPLE SURVIVE LIGHTSABER STABBINGS?!??!? Ok that sounds morbid BUT it's so ridiculous that everyone now are surviving a lightsaber stabbing.
As a Star Wars fan I wish they would have stuck to the stories from the novels
Three words after the originals,
acting,
acting,
acting.
Rogue One and Solo were great in my opinion.
The sequel trilogy was the rollercoaster off the cliff.
Branding existing canonical material as "Legends" was the destruction of the safety controls.
Mando was the attempt to regain control.
The Book of Boba Fett wasn't that bad for a spinoff idea, but it could have been better.
Kenobi could have been far better.
I haven't seen Andor or any of the other ones mentioned with it.
The Acolyte was the only show that I was the most hesitant about. I love Sith, but after the Sequel trilogy I was extremely hesitant about the announcement of the show and I stopped watching this show partially through episode 3 and I have since washed my hands of this stuff.
Can’t believe yall didn’t mention Lego Star Wars the complete saga 😢
Yes Jar-Jar was annoying but i think the biggest complaint with him and some of the other characters were the certain "vocal patterns" that imitated other ethnic groups.
Honestly speaking there really wasn’t any reason for Disney to kill off Han and Luke like that. You know this whole thing reminds me of George speech on Joy vs pleasure Disney keep spanning Star Wars content making more and more left unsatisfying that pleasure while pre buy out wasn’t high as Disney but it was something full filled when it just Episode 1 through 6 that can be recalled that makes actually happy it joy.
Ah, the “fans” hated the prequel trilogy too which had nothing to do with Disney.
People never hated the stories, they hated the acting and dialogue. They've since come around. People hate disney Star Wars because none of it respects what came before, has no overarching plan, and relies on nostalgia bait.
@@NoCluYT Ah, people didn't like the prequels just about of the acting. They also didn't like a lot of the writing. I've heard numerous complaints about the virgin birth of Anakin in the Phantom Menace, Attack Of The Clones was boring, certain inconsistencies with some of the characters. I remember a lot of these people saying that Lucas should find another director for the movies. And George Lucas has stated how people didn't like his movies. So I would say it's a lot more than acting and dialogue.
The prequels are still bad films. They just look like masterpieces compared to disneys garbage. Lmao
@@MajinLordVegeta I don't know about all that. But all I can say is that most of time it's just a bunch people looking for something complain about.
Andor S2 will suffice for me until James Mangold's film.
Disney keeps cancelling Star Wars movies. I've lost count of the writers, directors, and producers that were hired and then fired. I have no faith that Mangold's movie will ever be filmed.
@perceivedvelocity9914 True but I can wait.
Jon Favreau and Tony Gilroy are the only ones I believe understands Star Wars.
What do you think is the best thing about Star Wars with how it's an endless war between the Jedi and the Sith? Who do you think is the best hero and villain?
What about Ahsoka? That was a fun show, some great stuff happens..
This was an amazingly great video and totally unexpected, not because you guys are bad at what you do, I really enjoy your content, but because you were extremely critical of Disney and what they have done with Star Wars in all of the correct ways. It’s the agenda, lack of continuity and lore of a beloved franchise as well as just plain shitting on it. Nobody is against female heroes, it’s like they forgot about Leia being completely badass, it’s the forcing of squares in circle holes, it just doesn’t work. If done correctly and without shitting on the franchise, they sure new ideas would be somewhat welcomed. I say somewhat because we all know how some of us fans can be lol. I had such high hopes for these movies and shows and im always disappointed. Here’s hoping the skeleton crew can redeem everything and that Kathleen Kennedy would be fired
I stopped with StarWars after Kenobi . Done with the bait and switch , done with Disney talking down on the fans, calling the passionate life long fans horrible names while attacking the fans and the political agenda. They pushed away a loyal fan base for a modern audience. Their lead actress for the acolyte made a DIS TRACK CALLING THE FANS RACIST and that was fine with Disney . The fans aren’t racist and they don’t hate women , they hate your poorly written characters based on fan fiction written on a kindergarten level .
They also hate the wokeness/DEI bullshit
there is no political agenda!! did you fall for them bigoted grifters who use horrible AI thumbnails big drops for water that is supposed to be tears and big yellow letters that say "WOKE" the majority of people on you tube can see through their shit and make fun of them but it looks like you fell for it, i feel sorry for you
@@smcauley600 Calm down snowflake ❄️, everything will be ok little boy 😂
Love your work. You missed an Ewok movie Caravan of Courage
It’s in there at 11:36.
Sir… you mean “The Star Wars”
Because it wasn’t expected to be a big thing and “the new hope” was added later.
the wha
As a fan of "Star Wars '",so I go back far for the first movie .But when comes Disney well did "Star Wars Rouge One " which is best movie from Disney ,and "The Mandalorian " which is space western ,so I have evolve since it first came out .And right now "The ThrawnTrilogy " in graphic novel ,and seems pretty as story .Like Thrawn should been the bad dude after Vader , since Darth Vader has always been a badass too me .Well the most Iconic "Star Wars " villain ever .
You forgot Finn being able to use a lightsaber
The Last Jedi is actually my favourite in the new trilogy.
I started to sell all of my Star Wars stuff it was mind numbing just be into Star Wars
