8 Star Wars Mysteries You Didn't Know Were Answered

[@WraithWriter]

1:06... That day, Vader was amazed to discover that when Fett was saying ""As you wish." what he meant was "I love you." And even more amazing was the day Vader realized he truly loved him back...

[@jstrahan2]

Inconceivable!

[@simonreilly213]

@@jstrahan2I don’t think that word means what you think it means.

[@leslietarkin]

Then when Tarkin told Vader to stop Force choking Motti, Vader replied, 'As you wish'. Tarkin ignored the statement breaking Vader's heart. From then on, Vader plotted to punish Tarkin for not loving him back.

[@FlyingHangman]

Not sure it was a mystery about "no disintegrations".... pretty sure the fact that the line existed showed that vader was aware of fett's reputation/history... no explanation needed

[@esquire232]

Agreed! The Empire Strikes Back radio drama goes deeper into this. Vader gives the bounty hunters their instructions of no disintegrations but says, “I want to hear from you in particular Boba Fett.”

[@PaulLoh]

George is well known to have been inspired by classic Japanese cinema. One trope that could be found in some films was unusual and unexplained details. For instance, in the 1933 film Passing Fancy by Yasujiro Ozu, the character of Tomio is seen wearing a bandage over his eye. There is no mention of it, and no explanation for it. Thus little things like C-3PO's silver leg in A New Hope go unmentioned and unexplained.

[@briannab.1712]

I can safely say that not a single one of these mysteries kept me up at night.

[@JamesLundquist]

They didn't say anything about keeping you up at night. Therefore, no one asked.

Luke giving up on kylo is absolutely ridiculous, trying to kill him is even more so, disney you suck for making this cannon. Luke would have made an effort and even more so because it was his nephew. He didn't give up on His father no way he would on other family.

[@422katieleigh]

If you even watched the movie you would know he never “tried to kill him.” He stopped himself before it got there. But even so, fear is the path to the dark side. Anakin “would never have hurt Padme” and yet he did, because of fear. Have you even seen Star Wars?

[@lucasjorgensen7505]

@@422katieleigh yeah i have, he had his lightsaber out and drawn and turned on they made it look like he had given up hope. Anakin was on the dark side if you remember, Luke wasnt.

[@Finfection]

The funny thing is that in Disney canon he doesn't actually try to kill his nephew. But in the EU he actually does try to kill his nephew multiple times. BUT DISNEY AM I RIGHT?

[@422katieleigh]

@@lucasjorgensen7505 no one is all dark or all light. Anakin and Luke were tempted the same way-Anakin gave in and Luke did not. But he got so close he decided to cut himself off from the force entirely. Binary good and evil is the most juvenile form of morality tale.

@@KevinLuper99 Surly you can't be serious?

[@Andrew-df1dr]

@@KevinLuper99 The Last Jedi was the worst Star Wars film. It has so much promise. Yet it was terrible. It's like they got the storyline from Battlestar Galactica, slowed it down and through in a few marketing ploys to sell toys such as the puffins and the crystal dogs. The side quest was useless and almost every character was a colossal missed opportunity.

[@ernestcline2868]

Before the prequels were made, my headcanon concerning the "no disintigrations" line was that Anakin had shortly after being turned sent Boba Fett to get his wife, but to keep it secret from the Emperor, Vader didn't tell Boba why he wanted her. Then Boba was either bribed to report she'd been disintigrated by him or tricked into thinking he had.

[@billreynolds586]

While my fav Obi/Ani moment is really the fight between Obi and “Darth” in the Obi-wan series. But, I think best Obi/Ani moment is the flashback in the same series to Obi and Ani sparring to apparently see if he is ready to become a knight.

[@wickideazy]

Legends WAS canon, vetted and approved by Lucasfilm. As most of us fans of a certain vintage know, under George, there were levels of canon in the Star Wars universe: the highest was "G-canon," which was anything that came from George himself. This includes not only the films, but the tv shows such as The Clone Wars, as well as pretty much anything George invented to go with it. The greatest example of that last thing is the fact that Obi-Wan's homeworld is, officially, the planet "Stewjon." Stewjon is a world that George Lucas completely made up out of thin air during an interview with John Stewart. But because it came directly from George, it immediately became canon and all Lucasfilm records, sites, wikis, etc. were updated and his homeworld officially changed from Coruscant to Stewjon. The Expanded Universe - the comics, novels, and video games - were all canon, but one step below G-canon/film canon. Lucasfilm even compiled one great canon timeline database at one point to keep track of everything in the Star Wars universe - films, novels, games, all of it - and make sure it all fit together, which is why you don't see billions of continuity errors like you do in Star Trek where they can't even agree on Dr. McCoy's middle initial. If still in doubt, ask yourself one simple question: if the Expanded Universe was not canon to begin with, why would Disney have felt the need to officially declare it no longer canon?

[@Enjay001]

As I understand it, Luke was originally going to have a blue lightsabre in RotJ. The blue didn't contrast well with the blue sky of Tattooine. So, they re-did the effects to make his sabre green, which showed up better. However, a trailer had already been released with the blue sabre and I guess this clip is from that.

[@jamesmarciel5237]

0:49 the Executor is NOT a Star dreadnought. It is a Super Star Destroyer. You are trying to apply real life ship classification to science fantasy. The “Destroyer” in the name is not a classification, but is a description of the ship’s perceived power. That it is supposedly powerful enough to “Destroy a Star”. As clearly a Star Destroyer is bigger than a Star Cruiser (the Mon Calamari ships were Star Cruisers). The Mon Calamari Star Cruisers were called cruisers because they were converted civilian cruise liners. Also, Imperial Star Destroyers and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers are clearly the Star Wars Universe’s equivalent of Battleships.

Except the Rancor actually survived and lived on in relative peace and quiet with the handler after jabba died.

[@Craxin01]

I have to say, when you have to resort to beta canon in order to answer mysteries posed in the main canon, it's a bad sign of lazy writing. Either leave it as a mystery on purpose or answer it in main canon. How many beta canon books were rendered completely irrelevant after Disney bought the IP? How many will be the same after Disney either implodes or sells it on somewhere else once they stop making money on it?
