How Star Wars RUINED Great Characters

Disney ruined Vader's story without him even being present. They obliterated his redemption and sacrifice when they decided Palpatine survived ROTJ

[@user-tz2zz5ij1s]

[@droth1031]

How do we know he wasn't manipulated? Snoke/Palpatine/some other unseen Sith Lord could have been Force whispering in both their ears, telling Luke that his legacy would be destroyed by his nephew while telling Ben that his uncle was jealous of his abilities. Then again, maybe I'm giving them way too much credit.

One he didn't fall for that when the emperor and his father were trying to manipulate him, and two and more importantly, the fact that I said COULD be right means that they didn't explain it in the movie.

[@clasher138]

To be fair Boba didn't really have any character to begin with. I for one never really took him seriously because of how he was almost taken out by a blind Han. And thirty years after the clone wars he's a completely different person now. While the show has it's problems what he's doing makes sense. He's tired of working for people that will probably get him killed and wants to move up in the galaxy. It makes perfect sense that he wants to move on from the life of a bounty hunter after what he was forced to endure. Plus living with the Tuskens really did change him. Frankly it's interesting to see how one experience can change someone. He wants to be different from the cruelty of the Huts.

[@Jedwerd]

I disagree, but I see your point

[@kaiyacoxon5360]

I definitely agree with boba, Vader and some aspects of Kenobi but obi wan lived virtually by himself haunted by the mistakes he made with anakin. In his eyes his trust and love for anakin blinded him making of anakin increasing temptation and manipulation by the hand of palpatine. So its makes sense why he is so weak in Kenobi imo

[@stevuire1856]

I agree 100% but I also think they could have made the show a little better but still better then boba fett and the acolyte

[@SecretAgentBob2123]

I agree with a lot of your points. I hate the Disney era of Star Wars. Character development doesn't have to go in a positive direction though. Rick from the Walking Dead is a good example imo. He starts off moral and conflicted but ends up being depraved. The Boba Fett and Obi Wan shows were straight up character assassinations.

[@TimKuat]

It's infuriating that they would not put their absolute best on Obi-wan. They already screwed Boba Fett up yet Obi-wan was in a different league and they knew it. He's a main character to the story, it's not Boba Fett or a character like Mando, it's Obi-wan Kenobi. That alone should merit legendary work. It should have been the best Star Wars media to date and it was meh at best. Don't get me wrong, as expected Ewan, Hayden, Jimmy Smits, Joel Edgerton, Bonnie Piesse, and Vivien Blair all did amazing work. That was expected as we've seen some of them before in the prequels. The problem with the movies and shows Disney puts out is the writing and direction. In most of their work the writing and direction are the things that go wrong. They get stellar actors and actresses, amazing music composers, great vfx teams then screw it up when it comes to writing and direction. Disney needs to get their head out of their butts (and that's putting it nicely) and seriously hire people who ACTUALLY know Star Wars to write the Star Wars scripts. The guy who took the original Obi-wan script from the original writer to write the Kenobi show hadn't even seen Revenge of the Sith when he started writing for the show. It's obvious they don't care when it comes to the lore, they only care about fulfilling their woke political agendas and viewership not continuing the story as it should be. Obi-wan wasn't horrible don't get me wrong but it could have been vastly better. It's getting to the point where if they don't actually start really caring about the lore and making good stories to continue star wars that I won't continue watching their star wars media and that sucks. I know I'm not the only one.

[@MomoAfterDark]

Obi Wan looks horrible... I haven't watched but seen some footage and watched reviews. It looks straight garbage and messes up more of the lore and characters of the franchise simply by existing. I don't even watch Star Wars properties since Last Jedi came out. Why would I pay Disney for literally shitting all over the story and established characters?

[@abby2404]

[@aaronh.917]

You watched any of the Star Wars media following the sequel trilogy? I for one stopped consuming Disney products as soon as I left the theater from seeing the last Jedi. I didn’t bother trying any of the tv series because if they screw up their flagship Star Wars product (the movies themselves) then how can I trust them making a spin-off tv show

[@DitsMerzthalBravo]

U lost me on woke agenda

[@jamesashcroft8170]

I could've honestly dug Boba showing more compassion and empathy (than he used to in the OT) because we can still have a Boba who is dangerous and brutal like we want, with the nuance of someone who is capable of understanding the plight of others and maybe sometimes showing mercy (like how he spared Krrsantan). It just requires better writing. EDIT - Oh yeah, and on the topic of Boba changing, he literally changed from the end credits of Mando S2, which I'm pretty sure occurred just before BoBF. Remember when he broke into Jabba's palace and executed Biba Fortuna on the throne without a word, then dumped his corpse on the floor? Fastest character change in history.

[@tot4099]

You’re specific point that character development doesn’t include the deduction of skill and resourcefulness ingenuity is ridiculously wrong it’s crazy. A character in any story can regress in skill especially in this case obi wan is in HIDING not using his lightsaber, not using the force, not going on missions, not practicing. He is so outnumbered by the empire, their presence overwhelms so my planets in the galaxy, if obi wan were to commonly use the force and his light saber he would be quickly found and killed. So obviously his skills with the force and a lightsaber would regress. Which by definition goes hand and hand with his resourcefulness. And finally a character’s ingenuity can change just like a human beings ingenuity can change, a once funny clever man can become broken and battered and damaged. And if you were somebody capable of using the force and you watched everyone you cared about die in one singular moment, and you find out your student/best friend is at the helm of it all, killing innocent children, and people in general, across the entire galaxy, due to your negligence as a teacher. You’re sitting here comparing an Obi wan who had the entire Jedi order as his family, a great friend and student in anakin, padme, etc etc. he had a lot of friends he cared about that he still had, and you want him to be confident? And cunning? And keep that same personality? Even though he lost everything???? I must say this was a poorly written video, and you don’t know anything about writing characters, or stories. And obviously your knowledge on character development is almost 0. What is a character? A PERSON. Like you and me, that’s why you like the movie and characters because you feel their pain and emotions. What happens to a person when they’ve been through something traumatic. THEY CHANGE. Everything about them can change; their personality, the way they eat, live, love, take care of themselves. You sounded extremely uneducated, and sounded like a bitter kid whose upset things have changed the new shows and movies aren’t exactly how you envisioned them in your own head

I slightly disagree with the obi wan part. He did loose his abilities because he disconnected himself from the force because he was depressed, I get it, it’s no longer the same Kenobi we all knew. But at the end he was able to redeem his former self. And obi wan didn’t kill Vader because he saw him without his mask. He saw the last bit of Anakin, the apprentice he once loved and he didn’t have the heart to kill him. The Kenobi from the clone wars and ROTS would have done the same thing.

[@abramsullivan7764]

Yeah

[@drone-time]

All your points are, well, on point. I would add, however, that you missed a big one, perhaps an even bigger devolution, R2-D2. R2 is such a complex character with a huge presence in each of the first 6 films. He is easily the most developed character of the entire franchise which is even more amazing considering he doesn't say a single word! Think about it, every time we see R2, we learn something new about him, he expresses some new emotion or feeling or he performs some new task we didn't know he could do before. From his retractable front gear, to his data probe, taser, or leg rockets, you just never know what new and exciting thing you're going to learn about R2. Until E7. In E7, BB-8 is a ball! No offense to BB-8, but they did R2 dirty. They stuck him in a corner collecting dust, knowing he holds Luke's location, but won't share because, why? Oh, because plot holes, it's not time, okay, wake him up in 3, 2, 1 Deus Ex Machina GO!..

[@reign29810]

He lost his best friend when Anakin turned to the dark side. He had a hard time facing it, facing his past & has forgotten who he really is. I really liked the Kenobi series. 🤷‍♀️

[@superroller9074]

Disney did't ruin Kenobi nor vader(yet). In the Kenobi show Obi wan is supposed to be a broken depressed old man who has no intentions other than keeping Luke safe we see that in ep1-3 and after that we can character development where Obi wan's strength returns through ep4-6. Vader isn't the same in ep3 vader realises that Obi wan was weak.he even commented saying "the years have made you weak" vader wasn't even trying he was just toying with Obi wan as he did to Luke in empire.

[@ampro7418]

He's still annoying and I hate the Phantom Menace because of him (I also don't care for the Pod Race that takes up a good chunk of the movie), but him being easily manipulated into proposing giving the chancellor his emergency powers lead to Jar Jar blaming himself for the events that followed. It's now canon that Jar Jar retired to a remote world to act as a street performer/clown to entertain refugee children. A small penance of sorts to make up for the destruction and oppression he feels he brought upon the galaxy.

[@wendy1978able]

This man is tearing all of Disney Star Wars down to the ground. Good job man good job.

[@dewulfe9913]

Yeah, good video, please do a vid on Reva's flawed 'character'. In this vid, all really valid points tho I'll agree to disagree on two smalls things: (1) Yes, Vader pulling the ship out of the sky certainly _looked_ cool, but it creates problems in terms of power levels between other characters, and could raise questions about things he didn't handle in other scenes (why let the Falcon escape from Hoff if he can just pluck ships out of the sky?). (2) The fight between Vader and Reva: yes very cool that he was just toying with her, that's what I wanted to see (because it would make sense given what we understand of Vader's greater power vs her lesser power with the Force). But....some of Vader's movements were more like something out of a Yip Man film...they didn't look right for this Sith Lord. It was....weird.

[@Jedwerd]

i actually really agree with both of your points, and I think they are both valuable. I think that the problem with the pulling the ship out of the sky is that Star Wars has evolved since the OT, so there are going to be changes that don't line up with every single thing. Even though it doesn't make the most sense, we can't only accept things that were ONLY in the OT. There have to be some things we settle for. But I agree that it does create a lot of plot holes. Why didn't Obi-Wan pull down Slave I on Kamino? Although in Disney's defense, it wasn't totally unprecedented. In "The Force Unleashed", Starkiller pulled down a Star Destroyer. But no, I think that it does create a big plot hole. That's the problem with introducing magic or The Force in movies or books without VERY clear boundaries. As for your Vader argument, I actually also agree. Disney has made Vader a much more agile and fast character than he should be. Lore-wise, Vader had to literally develop his own style of lightsaber combat because of how bulky and unwieldy his armor made him. But now we see him flipping and weaving and dodging. I don't like that. But honestly, I just didn't really think about it when I was making the video. And I was just glad that the cinematography of the Reva/Vader duel was cooler than the sequels, with Kylo's wild swings, and Rey's random force stops, and the constant stumbling. I'm glad you liked the video!

[@dewulfe9913]

​@@Jedwerd For sure, and I think a continued evolution of a story universe is one of the biggest challenges for filmmakers to get right. As they do more and more movies, the writer/directors feel they have to show people new things (in this case, new cool Force stuff). It’s a challenge because ‘make the powers bigger/stronger’ is the easy way to do that, but then you have power creep and resulting plot holes, plus you weaken the stakes in any given situation....for example ‘hey Force powers now heal people’…but then the audience loses belief in any potential consequences of a scenario since they’ve seen that ‘powers’ can just solve that problem super easy, barely an inconvenience (#PitchMeetingsAreTight). The answer is more creative and careful writing - in this case, we could have seen Vader *trying* to hold the ship back with a lot of effort, impressing us that he was actually stopping the ship (at least temporarily). It’s in the air, but can’t actually leave the hanger. Then enters Reva who attacks him (at the *logical* time when he’s most distracted by his serious effort to stop the ship), and naturally he has to release the ship to deal with her. So we see he’s powerful enough to hold back a massive object with a ton of power…BUT he’s not OP to the point that he should be winning everything (like his stupid fight with Kenobi) without even trying. So that's careful writing - showing us Vader maybe has more power than we knew he did, but not breaking the story universe at the same time. Of course, we know they instead went for a non-sensical fake out, with everyone on a second ship that they did their best to pretend didn’t exist just so they could have their stupid fake out moment. Gah! And as you’ve implied his power in this one scene creates a new plot hole - if Vader can just pluck ships from the sky like he did the first one - why not just grab the second one before it leaves?!?!? Fucking Disney lol, do they think a ship about to take off is somehow silent? Or that Vader couldn't feel Kenobi in the other ship?! I swear the writing on this show assumed that everyone watching only had the brain of an underdeveloped five year old. I also think with more creative writing there are other ways to expand Force powers too that aren’t just making them bigger/stronger, but I’ve already written heaps so will leave that there for now. And I agree the duel was better than the sequels...didn’t love all of it, but there were some cool things there. Looking forward to your next video :)

Luke didn’t want to be found but Thrawn knew that he was on an ancient planet and it was possible that he would be found.

[@mikexmikex]

Boba Fett did next to nothing, and had very little personality in the original trilogy. All he really had going for him was that he looked kind of cool. A blind man pretty much killed him... with zero effort. We really don't know what his personality was, even in the expanded universe. He was sometimes written as ruthless, he was sometimes written as a near clone of Han Solo. And how can you say he's a loner? When did he ever work alone? He was with a group of bounty hunters in Empire Strikes Back. He was pretty much one Jabba's lackeys in Return of the Jedi. He was his "father's " apprentice in Attack of the Clones. He ran with a group of bounty hunters in Clone Wars.

So did Vader, because he is still Anakin and he didn’t stop being reckless out of no where, he had to learn how to make better decisions. it’s more realistic for characters to have real development.

I've never liked that stupid hallway scene from Rogue One. Vader has absolutely no business being in that movie whatsoever. It is just so dumb that Vader utilising all of his abilities like that fails to retrieve the plans? I know it is because A New Hope needs to happen. The Vader we see at the start of A New Hope is clearly not that flog in cosplay chopping people up in a hallway like it is going out of fashion. It is just such a tonal violation of Vader from the OT. Force pulling ships out of the air is what leads to crap like Leia flying in out of space.

[@BigCrackhead]

I totally agree with you and share your dislike against Disney or what they made out of Star Wars. But I gotta say, about obi, he wasn’t as we remembered him, but it has a cause: since Anakin turned into Darth vader and the Jedi order was destroyed he wasn’t as arrogant and confident as usual, because he lost everything: his apprentice, the force (well kinda), nearly all of his friends and it was from a certain point of view partly his fault. He doesn’t believe in his strength anymore and is confused and scared. His behavior isn’t hard to understand for me and logical. Also I liked the series very much, but mostly because we did see the good old actors in it.

I agree with this almost wholeheartedly, but Obi Wan was broken and grumpy after his brother figure tried to kill him and the whole Jedi order

[@jameskelso2435]

Exactly like this whole time he's out here having nightmares about Anakin and the next time he sees him it's Darth Vader out here dragging people casually walking by, I'm pretty sure anyone would run if they saw that Plus if you spent 10 years in exile literally hiding you'd become weak especially living on tatooine when you're used to planets like courascant

@@Syfcobra8549 true, in the EU/legends if I remember correctly when the first or one of the first Jedi purges happened they went to their old temples/planets to reconnect with the force Yes this time the Jedi order isn’t supposed to be what it is, but Jedi wouldn’t fall into despair or a depression, just be one with the force

[@stepfalcon]

@@Syfcobra8549 yes, but now he felt responsible for what happen to all Jedi. He trained Anakin. And he saw how Anakin become Vader and killed his whole family. Then he was sent to kill Vader. He had deep conection with him. Even deeper than with Qui-gon. He was sent to kill someone he loved. Thats what changed him. Not what happen but who did all of this.

About the whole “you shouldn’t have left her there with *only a lightsaber wound through the chest*” part. That isnt really vaders fault. Its Disney fault for forgetting that a lightsaber through the chest should 100% kill literally anyone (angry qui gon noises)

[@MrMan2006]

I completely disagree on your points about Obi Wan and Vader (I agree with Boba though). Obi Wan is meant to be a regretful, angry, sad man after Episode 3. That’s by design. He thought Anakin was already dead on Mustafar. He didn’t know he survived. Obi Wan feels like a failure for what happened to Anakin. Character development is okay if a character regresses to then be at a point farther than before, or be at a point otherwise impossible unless they did regress. Obi Wan is like that. Taking responsibility for Anakin, Obi Wan is no longer a Jedi. He is afraid, angry, resentful, sad. He even says “The Jedi are gone.” They are extinct. The reason why this is necessary is to get to the place he was in Episode 4. Obi Wan was calm, strong, and focused. He was ready to teach Luke. He was ready to revive the Jedi. After Episode 3 he couldn’t have been this strong. Not after Anakin. He didn’t let those people die, he just couldn’t do anything. He lost the fight against Vader because he was weak, not focused anymore, and out of practice. The reason why this works so well is because eventually he got back on his feet, was stronger than before at the end and into Episode 4, and was now ready to revive the Jedi, and put faith in Luke. Episode 3 Anakin would not be ready for this. He was too weak to train Luke, Anakin was ALIVE (which meant Luke would not learn under Obi Wan, which was needed to bring Anakin back from the Dark Side), and etc. Obi Wan eventually got back and got stronger. He only left Luke to save Leia, as Obi Wan took responsibility for what happened to Anakin, and therefore, his children. He left Vader alive because his motive was to get rid of Anakin once and for all, and face his past. Seeing Anakin was gone, and VADER remained, he had no incentive to kill him. That is why he said Vader killed Luke’s father. His development was great. What was WRONG with the show was when it dealt with things OTHER than Obi Wan and Anakin. With Vader, let me ask you… do you even KNOW who Vader is? Vader is a conflicted man. Anakin was always a small part of him. He was always conflicted against Obi Wan as well (which is why he lost, confirmed by Palps. He hated Obi Wan ofc, but a part of him also loves him). He let Obi Wan go NOT because he as dumb, but because he wanted Obi Wan to suffer just like he did. He let him go to toy with him and really make Obi Wan suffer, which he did. Disney didn’t ruin Vader lol. If anything they just made him more ruthless. They actually added to him, not ruined him. You only look at things on the surface level, not really looking deep as to why characters are the way the are. Disney HAS ruined characters, but Obi Wan and Vader aren’t one of them,

Bro EA showed Luke Skywalker better in a few cutscenes than Disney did in a whole movie💀(BFII Campaign).

[@LeftTownMedia]

I'm currently writing my own story for star wars episode 7, to share some ideas on what could've been. In my story, its set 24 years after Return of the Jedi where Luke Skywalker is now living in exile on a remote planet, watching over a young woman named Rey. The planet is under a constant solar eclipse. The planets moon wont move and is blocking out the sun, without explanation. It's revealed that Luke is responsible for this solar eclipse where he is protecting Rey from being found. Luke was exiled from the new Galactic Republic as punishment after the senate discovered that Darth Vader is his father. An alien race, who once fought the Empire, dismantled the republic, turning it into an Empire. Viewing force users as a threat, they imprisoned Luke's jedi students, including his sister, Leia. The new empire now enslave worlds to build them powerful battleships and weapons. Han Solo is now a slave living on one of these worlds where he is working with other slaves to escape.

[@sidneysmith6698]

Well in defense of the sparings/failures to finish, I think there are definitely easy explanations. Kenobi didn't kill Vader because he's never had the heart to from the start. He literally said to Yoda "I will not kill Anakin. He is like my brother, I cannot do it." If he really was about it, he would have walked down the river bank on Mustafar and beheaded Anakin right there. Vader didn't kill Reva because he is so much more powerful than her he has nothing to fear from her. And the Grand Inquisitor basically acknowledges that she will live. "We will leave you where we found you...in the gutter..." And as far as Vader's impulsiveness, it's the same trait that got him where he is. It's why he slaughtered the Tuskens, why he rushed Dooku, why he chopped off Windu's hand, and why he will throw all reason and sense to the wind to catch/torture Kenobi. He was definitely far from careful in his early years. He only becomes the smart, more tactical version we see later on because the Emperor reins him in in their last scene in this series. Vader essentially gets clowned by his boss for all the mistakes you criticize here.

It's great to see those who were born after the prequels understand Star Wars as well as my generation who saw the OT in theaters and grew up with it dominating our childhoods, and calling Disney out on the stunning garbage. Thanks and keep up the good work!

[@loganmohon9203]

You make good points, but I still think you’re under appreciating the context of Obi Wan Kenobi. The whole point was to show him as a completely broken character - not the same Obi Wan we’ve grown to love. He literally lost everything important to him and spent 10 years in exile ignoring the force. It was the first time we got to see Obi Wan as a man rather than as a Jedi. So it makes sense why he’s not at the same skill level as prime General Kenobi

[@AverageValdecruzResident]

Darth binx I’m telling u he’s REAL HES REALLY REAL also good vid and very valid point, Disney suck and I hope it goes bankrupt so either Lucasfilm takes back star wars or universal buys it because then there would be justice to these character

[@GreenNinj4]

Worst Thing about Vader: The one thing he didnt want anyone to know is that he is Anakin, so he killed everyone who knew it. But Reva, a person where he knows that she knows, gets spared? And this is not from Legends, there are Disney Comics about this… They prooved yet again that they literally dont know their own canon.

The fact that your are disrespecting Disney starwars fans is more sinister than what Disney did to starwars. Yes I think Disney ruined starwars, and I do not enjoy them.

I personally liked the book of boba fett because I have some legends based knowledge that if I am right makes his decision to form a faction of bounty hunters by far a terrifying concept. Namely I am talking about the Zanns consortium, a faction of bounty hunters, (hmm) scum, and other villains that were bad enough that both the imperial remnants and new republic got a lot of grief from them, and were most well known for their Defilers, elite soldiers who wore armor rather reminiscent of mandalorian armor. (Hmm) Though I imagine Disney will just screw this up somehow, I still think it is a neat idea that Boba Fett would end up founding one of the most dangerous threats in legends
