      @BloodThirsty_AJ 3 роки тому +4

      Actually, in my opinion (what I think), Palpatine wanted Dooku to be killed by Anakin, because he cut his arm, like this, Anakin would have developed his rage, his thirst of power, and his desire for revenge, easier for Palpatine to play with his mind by saying things that would convince the young Jedi, and turn him to the dark side, he knew that having Anakin in his side will make him win the ULTIMATE POWER.
      And for Anakin, killing Dooku wasn’t what he wanted, because he wished to be a great and respected Jedi Master, and kills is not part of the Jedi way, like he said. But I really think the pression of Palpatine about killing his nemesis was so tough and influenced that he finished off the Sith.
      I’m clearly not saying that it’s exactly this, it’s just a theory I had in mind.

But now she is one of the most loved Star Wars characters, both the final arc of season 5 and season 7 are amazing thanks to her, as she develops and becomes a better Jedi and a better person than even the Council. She also has a point in the overall story, proving Anakin's inability to let go that ultimately led him on the path to the Dark Side. And she's a woman, but that doesn't change anything for her character

    • @apreviousseagle836
      @apreviousseagle836 3 роки тому

      @Phelan Well, at least The Last Jedi was. It was Roundhead Johnson's deconstruction (badly done) of the SW mythos. Who's actually good in the SW universe? Who's actually bad? Apparently both teams buy their weapons from the ultra rich anyway. Who's a hero and who's a villain? Apparently neither, and both. Who was Luke? A good guy or a bad guy? Apparently he was somewhere in the shades of gray. There are smaller problems in the other movies as well. TFA basically had a female protagonist that could not possibly have an arc, because it would be insulting that she would actually been a novice as something, but.....gasp.....have to be taught something by a male? Perish the thought!! And Finn? Hmm, well the idea was to have diversity, so let's have a black guy be the 2nd lead? Oh wait he's basically comic relief, and all he can do is shout Reyyyyy because he fell for the first chick he ever met. That's kind of insulting. If I were a black person I'd be annoyed this is how the movie treats that character. Hell I'm annoyed now. He had so much potential to be great, as did Rey, but no no no!! we need a comic relief to play off Ms. Perfect.

Can I prove it? unless I could find a specific place where KK or RJ say that their goal is to destroy what SW was about, then I can't provide what you want. No one may ever know. But we can use intuition with a bit of logic and compare the zeitgeist and the source of it, and put 2 and 2 together?

      Well you see the main difference between the two is that the prequels actually had some sort of plan or structure. They were far from perfect but they answered a lot of questions, there were some arcs, and for the most part, everything made sense. Most of the puzzle pieces fit together. I believe the main flaws of the prequels were the screenplay and execution.
      Meanwhile the sequels had no plan, and no vision of any kind. There’s so many writing errors and plot holes, barely any arcs (and the characters that did have arcs came off as disappointing), and it feels so sloppy. The puzzle pieces don’t fit together. And it doesn’t help that there was a lot of PC-influence. The sequels have lots of flaws, but I believe the biggest one is the writing.

      I've had weapon training in martial arts class. You want to find out how clueless, clumsy, and ineffectual you (and everyone else) really are? Pick up a sword for the first time. It's quite embarrassing.
      I always thought of the Force as an extension of existing skills, i.e. you still need to know something, it just makes you faster and better than anyone with your level of training could possibly be. But if that were true, Luke would have beaten Rey even without using the Force, because you don't pick up a foil for the second time and defeat an Olympic fencer, full stop, end of discussion.
      Since that didn't happen, the only possible conclusion is Rey gets not only extra speed and precision from the Force, but the expertise itself. This means she's like a Matrix character, artificially implanted with impossible mastery of every skill in existence. The question then becomes, why can she do this but no one else? All I can come up with (besides MUH FEMINIZUM) is she somehow contains all the Force ghosts that have ever existed, absorbing all their power and experience. It's why everything is easy for her. It's why "a thousand generations live in you now."
      Mind you, I doubt it will be anything that interesting. There will be no explanation, she's just stronger than everyone because vagina.

    You remember when Luke was hanging upside in the cave on Hoth? Remember how much he struggled to pull his lightsaber as the Wampa approached? Not Rey... she pulls her lightsaber out of the dirt while Kylo is also attempting to pull the saber at the same time. She overpowered Kylo without any training and made it look like childs play. Remember when Luke struggled against Darth Vader because he didnt complete his training? Not Rey... she grabs a saber and fights Kylo Ren easily without any training AT ALL. Or what about Sidious and his force lightning? Yoda was blown back and sent across the Galactic Senate hall. Not Rey... she pushed back against Sidious and killed him. Or when she was teaching Han Solo about his own damn ship?
    Rey is the epitome of privilege. Kathleen Kennedy's hero that castrates the Skywalkers, and makes all Jedi look like weak fools. There is no heroes journey... just an overpowered feminist creation that can do everything better. Luke sitting there milking some alien donkeys tit while Rey saves the universe.

Kathleen's legacy on the other hand was to mutate a cinematic masterpiece into a soulless, barely recognisable shell of what it once was in the shortest time possible. You can learn lessons from villains like Palpatine, the Joker, Vader; to compare Kathleen to them does them a disservice. She may be a petulant child in a position of influence, and the outcome has been disastrous; much like a child getting access to his dad's firearm. "Exactly like Palpatine", far from it.

      True. A good villain has to be competent, possibly sympathetic (being sympathetic is usually great, but not necessary for every villain), have understandable motivations and above all, he must be intimidating and powerful. (unless it's comedy)
      Kylo Ren is pathetic, whiny boy that got beaten every time he showed up. The last movie should have stakes higher than ever, and how is it going to accomplish that when the main villain is a joke who got his ass kicked by an untrained Mary Sue in the first movie?

    • @RaikenXion
      @RaikenXion 5 років тому +46

      Thats the kind of feminism they are practicing in Hollywood today, and trying extremely hard to put across through social messages and the subliminal in the movies they put out.
      It is a message that a woman can be powerful, "strong!" Etc WITHOUT anyone, especially a man. Feminism today is not about "Equality", it is everything about SUPREMACY.
      Now think further into this, and if you have Feminism played off against Masculinity, the sexes set against eachother, you suppress both, which can (over time) lead to a genderless society.
      I know im straying too far off the issue here but i do think that is what they are slowly trying to achieve and why we're noticing this form of toxic feminism in many movies today.

    • @RaikenXion

      @Thiago Amato "The scariest part though is that these idiots are the majority actively entitling themselves as Feminists... And if any men argues with them about it, they call the guy Misogynist or shout "MANSPLAINING!", if women do that they are called out for being mindless zombies victims of some tin-foil hat conspiracy pro-men"
      Which is exactly what i was talking about. They are trying very hard to play the sexes off against eachother. They seek to suppress women's "Femininity", by activiely pushing them to be and act more "masculine"; all this attitude of "You (woman) can do ANYTHING a man can do".
      And they aim to suppress men's "Masculinity", by punishing, putting down and bashing on any man who shows these natural traits.
      By suppressing both (masculinity and femininity) in men and women, they then slowly work in all this "Transgender" thing; Which they are already trying to teach little kids about LGBTQ in primary schools in certain parts of the UK, thats the start of it. And is how they will slowly build up a Genderless society.
      By slowly "conditioning" people to accept these things and suppress their natural god-given traits as human beings, through mass media, adverts, documentaries and especially Tv and movies, which are supposed to give us "escapism".

    • @RaikenXion

      @Thiago Amato God given is what you're born with, i believe in God not a big white beared man in robes sitting in a chair looking down on us, ready to cast judgement. But i simply see God as a very real thing, responsible for all creation, i see God as more than even a "being", something that is still beyond our own narrow-minded perception to fully comprehend. Atleast until we can get past the whole issue of needing Religion to guide us in our world.
      I also think scientists tampered with the chromosomes in many women bk in the 40s or 50s, which has led to one generation being the first "transgender", then giving birth to the next, and then the confusion of people as to their gender.
      Add to that this later era and you have many who are growing up lost and confused, wanting to stand out in some way and subconsciously using the whole transgender thing as the latest trend, only with this they are tampering with their own bodies.
      As for "Feminist Ideology" that original was fighting for "equality", mainly for women to have same rights as men, only now its been infiltrated, as you said by those who "majority entitling themselves as 'Feminist'. And they are not so much "idiots", i think they know all too well what they are doing.
      The real idiots are the actual "Feminists" who were out there fighting for equality who have allowed this to happen in the "majority". There are women speaking out against this now, but simply not enough and so it all just feels as though it is too late, and we're all just divided.
      The result of all this? Women hating men, using them for what they need. Men in droves going their own way MGTOW.
      This has become a big part of our society today and it is quite sad. But where you simply had some young men and women who stayed away from all the politics of the world, and just kept themselves to themselves in their own world of "Fandom", sci fi and comic book culture.
      Now those things have been opened up and gone mainstream, so the nerds out there are now being attacked and in many cases even pushed out of their own beloved franchises.
      Because of the toxic Feminism being practiced today, and all this SJWs and PC. Look at Star Trek and Star Wars now. Soon to be possibly Dr Who and the MCU.

      @Grapthar's Hebrew Hammer well it gives the first 2 more of significance and character build, tho they still aren’t great. Honestly, those movies kinda suck as a whole. Alone, they’re good, but there just isn’t nearly enough info in between, Clone Wars (especially a specific select of episodes) gives that much needed filler to explain everything unexplained or not built upon in the prequels (mainly ROTS). For example, the clones are introduced in AOTC, they fights a talk a bit, then betray the Jedi. This has no significance and is mainly just confusing, until you watch Clone Wars and realize how it works, and how the clone troopers aren’t just boring robots who are actually working for Palpatine. It also makes Anakin a much better character, with a more believable turn to the dark side. Also, with the addition of new characters who end up being some of the best in Star Wars (Ahsoka, Rex, Maul, Hondo). Listen, I’ve always loved the prequels, but my dad always hated them. I had him watch like half of the storie sin clone wars and now he really like ROTS (he still doesn’t really like the first 2). Trust me, watching Clone Wars will change any prequel hater’s thoughts on the prequels, especially ROTS.

    could even make the iconic characters they so cared about easily die.
    The dark, subversive side of the Franchise is a pathway to many

    the only thing it was afraid of was losing money, which eventually, of

      Solar Opposite the choreography is bad but I’m sure they intended for Rey to be good with a lightsaber or she would’ve lost to Kylo in TFA but nope she overpowered him pretty easily, now I have to admit when I first saw the movie I wanted kylo to lose because he killed Han Solo but ever since then I realize that it really makes no sense for Rey to win, Luke didn’t even use his lightsaber in his first movie and even after actually getting possibly 3 years of training he still loses to Vader and he loses pretty easily, vader was just playing around with him, I mean he fought with one hand throughout most of the fight

      But being strong with the force I could accept. SWTOR and Forced Unleashed show people who were strong with the force and showed that power early on without much training. Her beating Kylo with a light saber was stupid, he had trained and fought wars for years, and all of a sudden she can beat him.

    Rian Johnson could have saved the entire movie and even made it awesome if Rey had have joined Kylo Ren in the throne room scene. I was, at that point, cheering for her to do just that. It made so much sense for her character.
    Think about it, she was left out disappointed by everyone she had ever met except for Kylo. He was the closest thing she'd ever had to a family at that point. He was promising her the ability to change everything, to rule everything. She had no reason to have a moral compass to say no.
    I genuinely would have respected the "subversion of tropes" meme if she had have fallen. Episode 9 could then have been about the redemption of Kylo and the destruction of Rey, who was the supreme leader.

      The Empire 2.0 in 7 was the stupidest thing. It states that the legacy characters were completely inept and how formulaic the new movies planned to be.
      Episode 8 could have shown Luke in the role of Hagrid protecting and whisking away families to a completely isolated planet. Creating a secret planetary mecca of learning and safety would have been a fulfilled arc for the young Luke and Anakin who wanted to leave Tatooine, the crappy planet.
      Star Wars today is infected by too many narcissistic parasites. It is going to implode under their weight. They all want their smudgy fingerprints all over the greatest franchise to have ever existed so they nuked all lore and replaced it with their own "genius". Because of their pride and incompetence, every successive movie is a relay race for course corrections. For the 9th, it's too late to build the non-existent lore enough where the actions of the characters seem interesting and impactful. The narcissists are haphazardly trying to close the arc ... implosion is imminent.

    One counterargument I've heard about Rey being accepted into the Resistance without a check into her background and skillset, is that Luke was allowed into the Rebel Alliance as a pilot despite only having just met them.
    Big difference here: the Rebels had their backs to the wall and needed to launch an attack on the Death Star, with limited amounts of manpower. Luke had demonstrated heroism and fighting ability by helping to rescue Leia and delivering R2-D2 to the Rebels; his ability to pilot a skyhopper (developed by Incom, which designed the X-wing) was sufficient enough to land him a spot on Red Squadron, which lacked replacement fighters. And Luke was not sent in first to perform the trench run until there were only a handful of pilots left.
    Rey was captured and had to be rescued, with nobody to inform the Resistance about her skills (Finn was in a coma, Han was dead, Rey barely interacted with Chewbacca and was stuck in the back with injuries), yet she's selected on a _solo mission_ to track down and find a Jedi Master (someone the First Order would have sent an entire fleet after) without any backup except Chewbacca, even though nobody knew her.
    The former is believable. The latter is _bullshit._

      Yeah, the force awakens was an ok movie and there was high expectations and good potential for the new trilogy.
      But the 8 was absolute garbage, destroying the legacy of the 7 (and also the original trilogy) and rendering the whole trilogy unsalvagable by the 9, despite the brave efforts.
      What a waste.

      But it was a story, it made sense... it didnt take a giant shit on beloved characters...
      And it had Sir Christopher Lee as Dooku... So it has its incredible moments.

      Feminism is not destroying hollywood. Incompetent people trying to push the woke agenda in order to hook a larger audience and thus make more money are ruining hollywood because they think that they can get away with not actually having a story in their movie, only cool effects and fabricated tension.

    Ray is a character made for viewers that are afraid of adversity in their own lives (by "creatives" that also don't like it much). That's why she faces no real adversity herself. Which actually makes her _weak_ not strong.

The character Dark Helmet gave birth to aohsaka and so on .... This movie called the force awakens is a travesty masquerading as episode 7 and ruining the only 7 SW's movies that matter TPM,AOTC,ROTS,ANH,ESB,ROTJ and SB's. May the Schwartz be with you !

    I need to buy you a drink mate....it's nice to see someone with some intelligence speaking their mind and the truth about the pitiful state of affairs that Star Wars has become under the control of Kathleen Kennedy. I'm glad you have the balls to offer solid ideas about fixing this treasured franchise. I grew up on Star Wars which makes watching what's happening to it all the more frustrating. Disney could learn a lot just by watching your video. Your spot on. Just once I would like to sit down these days and watch a movie or sporting event where left wing PC politics weren't jammed down my fucking throat. Disney is the worst thing that ever happened to a galaxy far, far away. Bring back George Lucas!
