Bendu Scenes (Rebels)

Bendu is a really cool character and I'd love to see more. I love force users who aren't affiliated with Jedi or Sith.

[@theSpiderSpeedstereditz]

I don’t actually think the Bendu is an actual creature. I think it is the closest look we have ever had a look at the Force itself

[@MidnightQ]

Mortis Gods 💁🏾‍♂️

[@ranorunadaira1452]

Mortis God and Mortis Anakin: are we a joke to you?

[@brandenmarcum430]

Incorrect. Bendu is an actual creature. He has found balance, he is connected to the Force. He is old, wise, and therefore he has learned what Anakin has now learned. He can be both light and dark, he can be the middle, he can be one with the force. He’s the closest thing to a physical Force ghost, much like Grand Master Luke.

[@ranorunadaira1452]

@@brandenmarcum430 I mean in Ashoka Anakin is also kinda a "physical" Force Ghost (if that even real Anakin).

[@theSpiderSpeedstereditz]

[@marcelxd1633]

Even Thrawn feared him

[@Stormblade02]

Thrawn's an overrated bitch

[@JournaloftheWhills]

i wish i could hear thrawns thoughts on him trying to understand the bendu

[@jackalmighty3840]

Thawn didn't need super powers to defeat Bendu. But it's normal for people fear things they cannot grasp. It's just that Thrawn conquered his fears and did the unthinkable while his troops were on the verge of cowering.

[@fumarc4501]

Fear of the Unknown. And we all know where fear leads.

[@tylerdonavon4927]

I doubt the bendu is dead, if he is as sensitive to the force, then he has both dark and light side abilities of reincarnation

[@rattlestormrepublic4874]

Imagine a conversation between Yoda and the Bendu.

[@leviwhite2981]

BENDU IS NOT JEDI NOR SITH, BENDU IS ONE WITH THE FORCE

[@Captain_Griff]

Such an underrated character, to bad he is for only 9 minutes but he is great.

[@mugglescakesniffer3943]

It was so epic to cast Tom Baker as the Bendu and then David Tennant as the Jedi training droid. The two best Dr who's now together in Star Wars. How cool is that?

[@Perigrene101]

This guy is Tom Baker?!? That's freaking awesome!

[@fumarc4501]

I really enjoy the Bendu, that which stands in the middle. Laughs heartily, enjoys pleasant conversation, and teaches valuable lessons… also takes exception to being called a coward. All in all, a standup fellow.

[@BlackEpyon]

This was a rather one-sided conversation. To truly appreciate the character of the Bendu, you need to see what he's conversing against.

[@darkskull9166]

I agree

[@crimsondynamo615]

My problem with a lot of these compilation videos. They’ll remove a lot of context from the lines being said because they cut the responses or starters.

[@dascientist777]

Sabine kicked Bendu, so she was kinda on her way to sensing something like him eventually. Good analogy of her subconsciously blocking the Force but still almost sensing it.

[@Gojirawars03]

Not gonna lie, I feel like that’s reaching… a lot.

[@MrPonytron]

Tom Baker has such a booming, godlike voice, that it'd be fitting for him to play a godlike entity

[@EmptyMan000]

I would love to see a segment where Luke Skywalker learns about the Force under the Bendu. Though the Bendu may be a poor teacher. In fact, I believe the Bendu may embody what the Sith Lord Kreia once said about the Force, that is a Force with a mind of its own that doesn't care about Jedi or Sith and will let as many die as possible under its Will.

[@guyfierifeetpics]

i think hes also missunderstood, he wasnt dangerous until kanan called him a coward and firmly asked both sides to leave. although saying "i bring death" doesnt help.

[@EmptyMan000]

@@guyfierifeetpics He's very understood, he's an ancient being connected to the force, who wants to be left alone and frankly is uncaring of what happens to the cosmos beyond that. In that regard, despite all his power, he is a coward. Content to hide than immediately deal with threats unless his character is insulted. There's nothing to misunderstand. All his wisdom, and he's basically a lazy hermit.

[@Fernando5455Jr]

You would rather hide like a coward- Kanan Jarrus Kreia- So you would do nothing? Apathy is death, worse than death. Because at least a rotting corpses feeds the beast and insects.

[@stoutshakofor2refined962]

He wasn’t a bad teacher tbh

[@AnthonyPosi]

Always wanted to see a deep conversation between Bendu and Plo Koon.

[@Stevetstevets]

he's literally space moose oogway

[@blueraccoon1088]

To be honest he looks like a moose

[@doctorwars2]

wheeeeeze moose oogway and the fact i like kung fu panda makes this even funnier

[@beastmaster0934]

Looks like a combo of a moose and an orangutan.

[@dagger1580]

The Bendu is probably the only character that truly personifies the force

[@BrianSmith-jx7td]

And The Father

[@VicSNawk]

I’d say Qui-Gon. But then again he more accurately portrayed how a Jedi should be

[@therestingrancor8259]

The Bendu still intrigues me. The fact the classic quintessential Doctor, Tom Baker voiced the Bendu intrigues me as well❤

[@avremirine8986]

Was I the only one expecting the Bendu to offer Kanan a Jellybaby?

[@muazo9916]

Nope ….I really wanted him to say this to

[@JustCallMeJames]

The Tom Bombadil of Star Wars.

[@simultualism]

Exactly. But Cool.

[@Cloofinder]

I love how the cave search for the Holocron is similar to the dark side cave on Degobah. Bendu is basically the grey Jedi/Sith Yoda

[@rtstrong]

Tom Baker absolutely nailed this role.

[@Cybermat47]

Has there ever been a role he hasn’t nailed?

[@bennywark3103]

I can't believe this is the 4th doctor himself Tom Baker

[@darthnito6336]

So if the Mortis Gods Die and Reincarnate, is it possible the Bendu is the Father, Balance. He's Neither Light or Dark and He has a long beard.

[@illrated]

The most interesting SW character to me. Also, thanks for uploading to this channel again.

[@JournaloftheWhills]

thank you! agree bendu's interesting, i love characters who use the force in ways other than a jedi or sith would

[@bearvassar6690]

Any dr who can will instantly recognize the voice of Tom Baker as the bendu

[@Goat4459]

Great to see the Doctor getting some action 😂

[@andrewbaur70]

He should have had a bigger role while Sabine was mastering the dark saber

[@gunmasterx1164]

Bendu voiced by my fathers favorite actor, Tom Baker from Doctor Who :D

[@AndreWars562]

Now we need a star wars what if ...? I wanna see Bendon't.

[@thatonewaspatyourpicnic7978]

Bendu had some good lessons, especially his one about the Sith Holocron. "An object cannot make you good or evil. The temptation of power, forbidden knowledge, even the desire to do good, can lead some down that path.."

[@Barcodev43]

Wow bendu is so awesome a breath of fresh air

[@straswa]

Great compilation. I love Bendu's laugh, especially at 3:36.

[@insertcognomen]

he reacted to sabine...maybe she has the force

3:14 the bendu straight up jacked them in a blink of an eye😂

[@Quirderph]

You missed the part in Blue Harvest where he appears in hyperspace.

[@QuinlanOUR12]

The fourth Doctor was my favorite Doctor Who......... until David Tennant came along. (They're tied for first). Great choice to have Tom Baker do the voice of the Bendu. That guy is great in EVERYTHING. And, of course..... David Tennant is the voice of Huyang. Lots of Doctor Who crossovers in Star Wars... including the uniform worn by Bossk in "The Empire Strikes Back". (Was recycled from "Doctor Who" wardrobe dept). More Tom Baker, please.

[@cernstormrunner7263]

I think i read somewhere that Tom Baker read his lines in his bathroom.

[@harmonygray840]

Hands down One of my fav characters EVER!! XD

[@Vengong]

I hope we see Bendu again someday, he was really interesting and honestly one of my favorite characters in rebels

[@thomasewatt]

I love how the Bendu refers to Jedi's home planet of Tython's moons, Ashla and Bogan. in Legends (Which is way better than Disney's canon) Tython is the home of the ancient Je'daii which focused on the Force both both light and dark. Anytime a young Jedi focused too much on the Light they would be sent to Ashla (Which represented the light) and anytime they focused too much on the Dark Side, they'd be sent to Bogan (Which represented the dark). The Idea is from those moons they'll only be able to see the other side of the Force and be forced to reconize both Light and Dark are apart of the Force. It was only after the Jedi Civil war against the Dark Jedi when the now Jedi order were blinded by only following the light side in aragance and ingoring that the dark was as much apart of the Will of The Force.

[@PrinceOfDolAlmroth]

close, but you mixed up the focus of the jedi. When one was too possessed by the Ashla, he/she was actually sent to the Bogan to relearn balance, and so with the Bogan to the Ashla. Other than that detail, you are essentially correct.

[@thomasewatt]

@@PrinceOfDolAlmroth I thought the idea was if your too much in the light you were sent to Ashla so from there you can only see the dark represented in Bogdan and understand both being necessary

[@wingsoffreedom3589]

​@@PrinceOfDolAlmrothI love the idea that someone can fall to the lightside of the force. It's very unexplored but clearly implied everytime the jedi get dogmatic or slow to act like the mandalorian wars we see them lose touch with the people because for an order that proclaims to be compassionate their immersion in the light stunts them emotionally and they experience ego death at which point things like the death on many people do to raiders is just a transformation from one state to another and those souls rejoin the the collective unconscious that is the living force. Their monk on a hill tendency leads to complaincency and apathy.

[@lucario5641]

Wisdom, clarity of vision - leading to chaos? Some things are worth fighting for? Seems like a recurrent theme in Star Wars. Cognitive dissonance - fighting for peace.

In the earilest StarWars scripts, the Jedi were called Bendu knights/warriors. Rebels is basically a prime case of reusing old scrapped ideas everywhere.

Indeed. He's meant to be a middle path of the force, but the Bendu is temperamental, vicious, and downright vague in what he is or where he came from. Just a strange creature thrown in with no explanation.

[@wrought-ironheroEMIYA]

​@@EmptyMan000your saying that as if both sides don't already possess some of those three traits. Your just proving bendu's validity at the end of the day😂

[@jackalmighty3840]

​@@EmptyMan000 I know "friends" in real life who carry the same temperament as Bendu: they're somewhat intelligent, knowledgeable, and very, very powerful, but they're also inconsistent. Thrawn contrasts Bendu as having no powers but his incredible reasoning and self-discipline, and despite his fear, he took down a demi-god. Thrawn, for me, is substance, and Bendu is just raw, neutral, and sometimes, chaotic power.

I wonder how the Bendu and the Doctor would react if they met. Perhaps before the Doctor turns the TARDIS into that museum with the Gallifrey painting in Matt Smith's Doctor's series, he had a conversation with the Bendu, two beings of Balance with no exact purpose in the universe
