Many dont know but the battle of Kashyyk was basically over chewie. The wookies are well known for being great star mappers and finding faster hyper lanes.. chewie is the leader of the guild... the Cis wanted him so that they could have a logistics advantage (being they were already more decentralized than an already existing republic) the falcon isn't the fastest ship in the galaxy, Chewie is the best navigator. The best navigators are wookies, and chewie was the leader of the navigation guild. That battle was for him and that is why yoda, sensing his own life in danger, made sure chewie was good.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. The Star Wars Holiday Special, recorded it back in the day on VHS. Chewbacca also appeared on the Boba Fett segment.
You forgot to mention the story when the Millennium Falcon crashed on Earth and Chewy was seen walking around the woods in America and mistaken for Bigfoot...or started the whole Bigfoot myth.
I always liked the fact that Han (and a few others like C3PO) can totally understand when Chewbacca speaks and he can understand them as well. It seems weird to make sense of what seeming noise Chewy is saying, yet it’s not difficult for Han at all.
He speaks their language. It’s like learning a complex foreign language like Chinese or Russian which just sounds like jibberish but it is a complex language
The battle of Kashyyk was basically over chewie. Wookies have the best navigators, in a special guild. Chewie was the leader of that guild. Cis needed a faster way to get around logistically because they were already more decentralized than an already existing republic. They were after chewies brain like the allies wanted Werner von Braun after ww2. Only the republic turned into an empire, then went and enslaved his planet after the war... like usa post ww2
Easy ~ he was young when Yoda rode on his shoulders, adult when he met up with Solo. Early drafts and original story have him as about 200yrs old at the time of A new hope. See, all done.
Who thought it was a good idea to make Chewie a cannibalistic murderer? Probably the same genius storyteller who made Lando a robot~humper. Giving beloved characters these dark or perverted back stories ruins the characters. Disney really have no clue about Star Wars. They thought they could make money by making any crap and sticking a Star Wars label on it
You mean Tarfful (however you spell it)? I don’t think that his father but I could be wrong, I thought he was a war general and chewie was 2nd in command. But i guess it’s possible. I shall google this
This story could not be more wrong... SMH... According to cannon, Solo meet Chewbacca when Solo is in the imperial military academy. Chewie is a slave and Solo saves him and they escape. And Chewbacca have since been in his lifedebt.
If he is 230 years plus and seems somewhat middle aged he would likely live to around 500 years naturally, if he leaves for a couple years at a time it would seem shorter if you lived six times longer.
If the old books are Legend... - Hans pants with the red stripe were from a uniform from his time in the Imperial Forces officers training program - After going AWOL, he's captured and is enslaved with a group of Wookiees and other species - While escaping, Han and a a small group of Wookiee fight their way out, during which an elder dies. A touched Chewie invokes the life debt and stays with Han after Fill in the details if you can, I'm going from memory here. Boring set of books really, but the Legends background is so un-sensational, it's at least believable.
Which Star Wars trilogy do you prefer: prequel, original, or sequel?
Definitely the original
Original
The Prequels have my favorite movie, but I say OT as a whole
All of it!
That's the most stupidest question asked in the history of stupid questions!
Chewie was also in revenge of the sith, with yoda.

Chewbacca lives through the clone wars , the empire , and the first order that’s crazy

I think its cool he has lived so long
he will, its in the future

The one where hundreds of years later an archaeologist named Indiana Jones discovered the Falcon and the remains of the human pilot within it.
Gareth Savage Where was that? Pennsyl -tucky?
@@timfart9414 It was actually in one of those graphic novels.
Chewy is just a boss!! ☠😁
I dig the Prequels and the Orig Trig. The Sequels not so much..... 😂😏
AAARARRRGWWWH
He is very crucial in the entire saga. Empire is the best example of his cunning.
Looper, great video! Enjoy your week!💯🙏👐
I'm glad he got his medal
GGGWARRRHHWWWW
AWESOME ! VERY COOL 👍THANK'S
Love that tall bundle of fur
There was a Wookie that can speak Basic (English), tho. Just that one.
I love Chewbacca
A New Hope? A New Hope?! A NEW HOPE?! The first Star Wars movie is called 'Star Wars'!

What I wanna know is how did chewie go from being second in command on the battle of kashyyk, to being imprisoned by the empire

This is the biggest movie of the year, either who saw📽🎥
Chewbacca was also the owner of the cantina at mos Isley spaceport
Us wookiees go through hard tough times but we always make good cuddle friends. 👹❤
RAWRGWAWGGR?
Thank you
I wonder if Chewbacca is force-sensitive.
Nicholas Barlow In my head canon, yes he is
AAARARRRGWWWH
Chewbacca is really getting up there in years. It's sad to see even him sporting a bad "comb over".😞
I love this big fuzzball!

What about the whole Chewie segment from TCW?? Ashoka and him escaping from the Trodoshians!!??
I love chewie
Project Mayhem
My guinea pig called Chewbacca as he's got the original Chewbacca's colours
Maybe they’re related?
@@timfart9414 I would love that idea as I love them both equally
wendy walsh-adams maybe we’re related. My last name is Walsh.
@@timfart9414 I'm an Adams my hubby is a Walsh
wendy walsh-adams That’s different. My daughter has 3 guinea pigs. Wilma, Cocoa and Freckles.
Is first still a thing
Yea
Perhaps
First to tell you no!😂

190 years old? You look good!
Chewie has a gun 🔫
Chewie has a gun ☠️
It's too bad they were never able to fix chewbacca's speech impediment.
If this is from disney, it doesn't count.
in revenge of the sith we see is father. he's the one helping yoda leave kashyyk
You mean Tarfful (however you spell it)?
I don’t think that his father but I could be wrong, I thought he was a war general and chewie was 2nd in command. But i guess it’s possible. I shall google this
Chewie is the man. The undercover furry lover
. . . . We ate a Wookie . . . .
. . . . . . . . . it was Chewy
Do we know how long 190 years is? That is, how long does it take for his home planet to orbit its sun?
عالی بود ❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍

big foot
I heard that Chewy was a stutterer and his people could speak manspeak pretty good..
If he is 230 years plus and seems somewhat middle aged he would likely live to around 500 years naturally, if he leaves for a couple years at a time it would seem shorter if you lived six times longer.
Wookiee can live over 400 years old
One book claimed 6000+
@@TheFrostbite324 so guess at 500 then I suppose.
George Lucas got the idea for Chewbacca from Bigfoot.
George got the idea from his dog a Siberian husky and he used his dogs name for Indiana Jones!!!!!!!
video was perfect until he had to bring up JarJar🙄
Chewbacca was a sasquatch. Helloooooooo
Aargh!
I did not know he can speak other languages
If the old books are Legend...

Jay Luck I thought I was the only one thinking about Han’s pants!😮🤪😂
Who was first?
I would love to see how Chewbacca would look like if he was shaved clean from top to toe.
Adi Afendi I thought I was the only one that wanted to see Chewbacca naked! 😂
Raaaaaaawwwwww
I’m lit here cause I found a cheap costume
Third!
Love chewy but don't care for star wars
Never watched star wars, just wanted to know what chewbacca is. but man... this movie is a huge load of crap.
Do people still give a shit?
