      Ukri Ylönen you have to admit that his surroundings had MAJOR influences, even being a slave, anakin no doubt was one of the kinder if not kindest kids out there and the Jedi managed to ruin him.
      The old jedi were fundamentally flawed, it needed a complete remake. Luke did that very well with adding so much more freedom, stressing the individual journey, encouraging the Jedi to actively befriend the locals and even stay behind as well as build attachments, the dark side also wasn’t considered taboo and there might’ve been a bit more push to even lean towards the gray side.
      Had Anakin been under Luke’s Jedi order, he would’ve really thrived using his powers for good as a gray side force user though still kinda hot tempered.

Yes the jedi held him back and it made him angry plus he feared for padmes life but still, if you do something that drastic as an answer to your on mistreatment you are mentally ill on some level. Heck, killing children alone is enough evidence of being sick. And it's not like the jedi are pure evil or some shit, obiwan was anakins best friend and held him in high regard, even loved him.

      @@dawsonvandecar1612 We aren't talking about Star Wars Legends the novel itself. We are talking about the whole former Expanded Universe. If it didn't come from George Lucas or is not released by Lucasfilm/Disney it is not canon. Canon has to be something from the creators and forms one official universe. Even at the end of this video, SWT concedes that it was "mostly canon" but his title hasn't been changed to reflect that.

      @jothamheystee 4 роки тому +3

      @@Boristien405 You say that some Legends material is inconsistent and ridiculous in comparison to the movies, but I don't think most of it is at all. Before Disney's acquisition of Star Wars, a lot of the Legends material (some of which was still considered Canon), was pretty consistent with the movies and novels. It's really Disney's additions that polarized Legends material and "Canon." Most of the apparent "inconsistencies" in Legends are only here because of the new material that has recently come out. I remember when many complained about Palpatine's essence transfer in Legends and argued it didn't make sense compared to Canon. Then, what do we get in Canon? Practically the same exact thing we did in Legends. Yet, no one has really complained that it's ridiculous, rather that it undermines Anakin's arc. If we look at all Star Wars material before Disney, I would argue that almost all of the Old Republic is consistent and plausible with the Canon. There are a few things that don't follow suit in the events after Return of the Jedi, but I still like most of it. And it is absolutely not a reasonable argument to bring up the knock-off stories like the "What If?" situations to claim they are inconsistent with Canon; of course they are, it's obviously not a part of the main story (I'm not saying you are saying this, but I have seen some bring that up before). I don't think Legends is all perfect, it's far from it. But a lot of the material was pretty consistent before Disney came in. I also hate seeing the argument that certain characters are just overpowered in Legends compared to Canon. Don't get me wrong, some are a bit ridiculous, but I think it makes sense for the most part. During the Old Republic and before it, wars ensued constantly, so it only makes sense that Jedi, Sith, and the intermediates would practice any means necessary to defeat the enemy. Which, of course, means extremely more powerful characters than we've seen in the movies. Legends after Return of the Jedi isn't as reasonable. My main complaint would be against the Yuzhaan Vong. They basically come out of nowhere and are insanely powerful in military might. That's just one example. There's plenty of problems with Legends, but it's not all to blame for the inconsistency compared to current Canon. I think I have more problems with Canon than Legends right now...

    The Duchess then kept this secret as to protect her and Obi-wan from the scandel.

    9:32 "Had secured him 2% royalties of the film" Actually it was 2 and 1/4th percent! He apparently spoke to george and was told he'd get another half percentage as a sort of gift, it wasnt on paper yet though. Then a couple weeks later they noticed that the film was actually going to do surprisingly well, a lot better than they thought, then Alec asked George about the more percentage and george goes "Oh right, the extra fourth percentage" LOL. So he was actually screwed out of 1/4th a percent.

    1 & 2. So before The Phantom Menace, young Obi-Wan was basically Anakin without being too cocky for his own good like Anakin.
    3. Interesting...wasn't aware of this. But the ideological clashing? Sounds like Anakin.
    4. ...and this is where he REALLY differs. He negotiates.
    5. Three of'em!? I hadn't noticed this...
    6. ...dafuq!?
    7. How did anyone NOT notice how much of a beast he was as a pilot?
    8. Wow...
    9. That's wild...
    10. "Space Santa Claus"??? Wow...
    Seriously, though: in a nutshell, Obi-Wan Kenobi was effectively a case of "What If Anakin Skywalker never fell to the Dark Side, instead maturing as a Jedi and eventually becoming a Master for real"...

    i think that it would be cool to see an alternate story where obi-wan could have had a more direct relationship with Luke as he was growing up instead of him being forced to watch from the side lines. because from the movies and legends it seems that obi-wan cared for Luke and viewed him as more than just a future apprentice to train to fight against the empire but it seems that he really was fond of him and almost seemed to act like a surrogate grandfather.

    It was in 1975, two years before the release of Star Wars,the script had arrived at Alec Gunniness's home at Petersfield, he stated I quote;
    "The script came through the door and the moment I saw a Sci-fi sticker on it, I said to myself "Oh crumbs, it's not for me" But I started to read it and I had to turn the page." Alec continued to say "It had vigour and I finished it at a sitting. Was that normal? No, not at all. But it's a jolly good sign. I don't apply any professional "technique" If that's the word, when I read scripts. But if I am held then I think there's a chance the public will be held too. Probably the last time I went through a film script so swiftly was when James Kennaway's Tunes of Glory came into my hands" end quotes. He believed the script had potential.

      That is one thing Lucas is excellent at, building a framework, and its one of the main reasons Star Wars was - and remains - successful. However he is truly awful when it comes to dialogue, which is why you hear many actors in the Star Wars saga complain about it. Guinness was one of the best character actors in history, he was used to a higher standard of dialogue, however I'm sure he was happy enough once the royalties started flooding in. :D
