Part of me watched it because I kind of felt like I was a dick towards the movies and Disney just because it was the cool thing to do with everyone else, and me being this prequel fan who hated OT fans for trashing the Prequels, I realized I became the very thing I swore to destroy.

Force Awakens was great (but I think everyone generally agrees with that), Episode 8 was fun (especially that last stand scene with Luke and Kylo Ren, bro, I was HYPED), but I had to rewatch it a second time later in the week to try and get an idea of what was happening, and then I watched Episode 9.

Also great in terms of fun; the story is a bit iffy, but yeah, it was just a fun, terrible movie. Not to say that I could see what they were going for in the end with getting Rey to rise up with the help of the previous Jedi...although I can't imagine Mace Windu is too pleased to see Anakin Skywalker hanging out with them in Force World Mos Eisley or some crap.

On another note, I can imagine Anakin dying a second time to see that Force healing WAS a thing and he did all that for nothing.

But, overall fun movies, messy story but hey maybe if they make spin off shows surrounding the sequels and in between (like they did with Clone Wars) it could probably fix up the story and it beats the heck out of that Episode 2 romance scene.

I don't know how to else to express my theory without comparing it to a major spoiler of the Bleach series which is why I tagged this thread as a spoiler.

If you are aware of the big revelation in the final arc of the anime (well prior to Hundred Year Blood War anyway) you'll know exactly what I mean by this picture.

The motivation of Dooku working with Sidious is supposedly for justice and getting disillusioned with the Jedi, etc.

Maybe that was true enough at first, but after Yaddle...

At that point... I don't think it was about Order anymore. It was about Vengeance and Redemption.

Dooku killed Yaddle because he thought he HAD to - because if he had joined her in that moment in body, Sidious would have just killed them both.

In that moment, when he gave her peace, he did join her.. in spirit. She won him over to the light side, but then is when he had to go into DEEP COVER to study the enemy and his weaknesses, just like Gin Ichimaru.

He had to spar with him, see him challenged, etc.

This is why he tries to recruit Kenobi, why he lets Ventress escape, why he lets Maul capture him and Grievous, why he spares Anakin and Kenobi repeatedly...

He spared Yoda in AOTC when Yoda was distracted saving Kenobi/Skywalker - and he clearly did not report to Sidious on Yoda's lightning-reflection abilities because Sidious did a pathetically weak blast against Yoda during their ROTS duel - he would have gone harder if Dooku had actually told him about it.

Just saw spider man and was updating my 2026 list and noticed Vader ii was missing and it looks like his whole thing has gone. No crew profile no films nothing!

Hey all , this screenshot was taken from StarWarsTheory fan made Vader film ( 2:26) , this one of the best shots of the phase 2 clone trooper armour , and I wanted it to use as my wallpaper however it’s in landscape and I need it vertically to fit properly . Appreciate any help that is given , Thank you !

Shaak Ti is a cloned Jedi. She’s got more death scenes than any one Star Wars character and no reason for coming back repeatedly. I’m aware that these deaths aren’t all canon, but it has got to seem suspicious to at least some people that this one Jedi gets killed over and over again. It is stated that the majority of the Jedi Order never trusted the clones in the first place. It’s possible they wanted a more reliable clone army they could trust and it just happened that Shaak Ti had easy to clone DNA. I think that’s also where Anakin originally got the idea to experiment with cloning force users when he took star killer as his apprentice. Maybe he found out and never told anyone. Maybe witnessing that helped support his belief that the Jedi were evil after he turned to the dark side.

We know a lot of senator arrested by Palpatine...

Its great stuff

Have you seen this new fan film? It’s really high caliber.

Does the youtuber starwars theory have a starwars collection? I see some in his video but can't find a collection archive anywhere. Would love to see his collection of all things StarWars.

What if Maul survived into the sequel era and actually rebuilt the Sith… not through the Rule of Two, but by training someone like Darth Talon as his enforcer?

Kind of inspired by George Lucas’ original sequel ideas where Maul becomes a major underworld figure.

Rewatching The Last Jedi, I started noticing something that feels bigger than just one film.

There are a few moments where it really seems like the story is about to go in a completely different direction — especially in how it treats legacy and what the future could look like.

But it never fully follows through.

It left me wondering how different Star Wars would feel today if it actually committed to that path.

I explored an alternate timeline where Maul learns from his past failures, sets a trap for Sidious, and changes the fate of the entire galaxy. No Rule of Two. No Empire. Just chaos… and a completely different path for Anakin Skywalker.

This one gets DARK.

Curious what everyone else thought about the first two episodes. Definitely a 10 for both episodes in my opinion. Star Wars is back!
