The Force Awakens was supposed to be the return of Han, Chewy, Leia, and Luke in one scene but Darth Kennedy refused.

[@StickmanAnakin]

That's one of the biggest misses, I think I forgot to mention it, but fully agree

[@jakeford12]

I think the other problem was that leias actress is deceased, so you would have to get a different actress to play her.

[@bluejay21.]

Kenobi was planned to be a movie but was changed to a TV series because of the reception of Solo, so fluff was added just to fill runtime. I think Kenobi COULD have worked as a film and Solo as a TV show. (But, that's just my opinion.)

[@kolaranze]

They should just make movies and not series.

[@bacondorito]

and Solo was badly received and lost money mainly because the sting from tlj was still only 5 months fresh.

[@ThePursoodm]

I think they both could have worked as either show or movie just as long as they have a good story to tell and everything in place to execute it well. With that being said, I could def see solo be ing a more episodic show of him and chewy going on random adventures. Obi is better off telling one main story. Not sure what i would want that to be, but I didn’t like the save leia angle or Reva plot. I think they needed something totally different.

[@diegoprodriguez]

I still remember back in 2000s when there were only six Star Wars movies. I’ll always defend at least the first 3 Disney Star Wars Movies, but since then, the movie side hasn’t really succeeded the way you would expect Star Wars to and the TV side is now starting to becoming a mixed bag instead of leaning decent/good

[@GrantGraff]

There's only been 5 movies. I don't think anyone would defend Rise of Skywalker and even Disney admits Solo was a failure. Where the Disney magic really takes place is in animation. Rebels, Clone Wars season 7, Bad Batch. Their all great.

[@Nonamearisto]

As far as I'm concerned, Star Wars is the OT, the PT, Clone Wars and its cartoon spinoffs, Rogue One, first two seasons of Mando, and Andor. That's plenty. It is NOT the "sequels", Mando season 3, BoBF except for maybe two Mando episodes in disguise, the REEva show featuring Kenobi, Ahsucka, or anything from the "High Republic" which include the Acolyte. The Last Jedi is still the low point, but the Acolyte comes very close in matching that idiocy.

[@jonahyoung55]

This was a well-edited video. Short and to the point! Good job! I agree with almost everything in this video, the sequels and the Acolyte were not made with the care and attention that Star Wars deserves, and Kenobi felt rushed in many areas. But I will always argue that the Book of Boba Fett is incredible! It was a pure passion project made by fans for fans. John and Dave had already planned Boba's redemption for a while, and used the canceled Clone Wars episode about Boba as inspiration. Boba's near death experience in the Sarlacc did change him. His time with the Tuskens helped him learn about the sanctity of life. Because of that, he was sick of people dying just because someone "in charge" wanted them dead (again, something built off of his canceled CW episode). So he decides to take control of Tatooine, so he can put a stop to the senseless killing straight from the root. Additionally, the other 5 projects very clearly had a political agenda. The Book of Boba Fett doesn't fall into that same trap, thankfully. I'm not saying everyone has to like the show, there are plenty of valid criticisms for it, but I personally believe that it is leagues ahead of the other 5 projects mentioned in this video. This is just my opinion, though.

[@StickmanAnakin]

Hey, thanks a lot for the insightful comment! I do agree with you that there is a perspective to be had on the book of Boba Fett where it shows a life changing story of a man that's basically gone through hell and lived a life of regret. The clone wars tv show certainly did already set him up as more of a good guy already in general, so it is consistent in that regard. I just would find it more interesting if we'd get a series in the perspective of him during his prime as a bounty hunter, as that could offer so many different interesting avenues, but the Book of Boba Fetts placement in the timeline isn't really feasible for that type of narrative.

[@jonahyoung55]

@@StickmanAnakin Fair point! Thanks for being respectful of others' opinions! I agree that it would be cool to see Boba in his prime. Now that they've told his redemption story, I bet that a Season 2 would be able to use the same "flashback" format to show times in his "prime" that become relevant as other ghosts from his past come to stir up trouble in his new life. That would keep it different enough from the Mandalorian.

[@darthbedlammasterofdueling4519]

I’m glad The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, Andor and all the animated Star Wars shows are not on this list, and I disagree strongly with Kenobi and Book of Boba Fett.

Disney saber duels: a lot of smacking, and using the force too much to stop the blade of a saber, and if stabbed, tis but a scrape (unless needed 4 the plot) P.S, i wouldnt really consider episode 7 a failure because it was anticipated for 10 years and got that monehhhhh. but it does fail the built up lore from the decades prior

It was a failure in the same way that a farmer selling off his seed corn is a failure. Yes, he made more money in the short run, but he has no more seeds for future crops.

They only way Star Wars can get back to the quality we all remembered is if the rights to Star Wars is released from Disney's corporate political greedy claws.

So only hope now is let's hope Disney doesn't make it to their 200 anniversary.

I'll never forgive Disney for decanonizing the eu. Not only did they scrap tons of lore, but they had zero creativity to make up for it. Everything they came up with is either rehashed, pulled from the eu, or pulled straight out of their ass. The new stuff from the force awakens that made us have a million questions were pulled out of their ass because there's zero explanation except for two things. The first one explains who Snoke is, and it's pulled out of their ass because what's a standcast?? The second is just a last-minute fix when the damage was already done.

Call me a feminist, but Rey being a strong female character was never a problem for me. She is literally the granddaughter of the most powerful force user in Star Wars Cannon. Not to mention being raised as a child in a brutal junkyard environment and learning to defend herself with a staff from a young age. The force awakens was the highpoint, it went down hill when Snoke was never explained, and Rian Johnson failed to pick up on the hint that Rey was written to be Luke’s daughter, not to mention not making Finn a Jedi and her boyfriend. If the writers committed to the original plan of Rey as Luke’s daughter, Jedi Finn, and explained that Luke was stranded on the island by a fully developed Snoke I think it would have all come together nicely. But in defense of the sequels Kylo Ren’s slow turn to the lightside was an amazing choice. I liked how his arc was the opposite of Anakin’s. While Vader went from good to bad, Kylo went from bad to good. Also, his tragic romance with Rey Palpatine beautifully ties all nine movies together. Showing that love can save to the day. Do I wish I knew more about how Palpatine returned, of course, but I am also satisfied with the “dark magic” explanation. The final message that evil is not genetic really hits at the core of what the Skywalker Sage was all about.

[@StickmanAnakin]

These are very valid points in my Opinion. If some of these story points you mentioned played out in that way and were explained properly while sticking to continuity, I think the sequels could've been great! Rey's power in the force could've been explained by Amnesia or something, where she had received previous training as a kid or something, there are so many possible avenues that could've made sense and worked within the lore, but they kinda ignored the previous stuff and just did it their own way. Training is necessary for every force user, no matter how strong they were in the force, that was established all the way back, so Rey being able to mind trick people without any explaination except she has a great lineage is what breaks it for me. I'm just a big advocat for continuity and keeping within the rules the universe established.

And I could say Episode 12 and 3 break cannon. Bad love, story, and overall, only one good movie came out of it, and that's ep3 The original trilogy still is the best because it was a team effort.
