All hail the moving carpet

[@derpscoot2741]

What u doing here loyal loki ? Star Wars fan ?

[@nobodyatall6620]

It's walking carpet

[@NeutralGrounder]

And the scary part is that wookies aren't even the most dangerous things on Kashyyk.

[@noahbryan9779]

Wait what!!!???!?!?!?

[@ragingocelot4013]

What is it

[@NeutralGrounder]

Yeah that's the reason why wookies live in the trees. To be safe from what's below. The further you get to the ground. The more dangerous it becomes.

[@NeutralGrounder]

The ground floor of Kashyyk known as the Shadowlands is home to terentateks and katarns to name a few. starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Creatures_of_Kashyyyk

[@chase1146]

i would like to see a wookie jedi with a trandoshan padawan, or the other way around

[@ethandavies7627]

chase1146 yes winning

[@chase1146]

well in legends plo koons master was a wookie. and before order 66 in canon there was a wookie padawan. i was just saying that i wanted to see that because the wookies and trandoshans seem to have a little bit of a hate on for eachother

[@helenwhs]

They would be raised from birth in the Jedi Temple, so it wouldn't be much of an issue.

[@apogeelord7013]

There is Wookie Padawan, in Clone Wars TV show, he even had a wooden lightsaber.

[@chase1146]

@@apogeelord7013 ok? and how does that relate to my original comment?

[@marine1378]

Is there any way that we could get an in depth video on the history and lore behind the 501st?

[@dewbackgaming659]

Yea

[@dewbackgaming659]

Do it

[@danielschriever3448]

+derick revels that is a great idea!

[@hasw24]

+Dewback Gaming "dew et!" -Darth Sidious get it? because you have dew in your name? ah nevermind

[@dewbackgaming659]

what??

[@TheTendermen]

2:34 "Bear hands" get is because they kinda look like bears sort of

[@jamesphelan5523]

Does anyone know why Chewbacca went from a war hero to a smuggler

[@johnnyscifi]

Pretty sure it has to do with the empire enslaving the whole race. It was wookie slaves that built the first deathstar...

[@jamesphelan5523]

+johnnyscifi Thanks

[@johnnyscifi]

+James Phelan No worries. Actually what happened was Chewbacca was a slave that rebelled, and Han who was in the empire military at the time was ordered to kill him, but saved his life and fled instead. Thats why he owes Han a life debt

[@patrickalexander3964]

+johnnyscifi And the lifedebt wasn't something Han demanded, it was a part of Wookie culture. If a wookie is saved from something major like slavery or death, he or she will pledge a lifedebt to his/her hero. I figure you already knew this, but you didn't explain the lifedebt and that could confuse someone who reads your comment and doesn't know what it is.

[@AzureSymbiote]

+johnnyscifi Han was in the empire military? That goes against his character as a loose, carefree guy.

[@thegametroll6264]

Wookies are quite possibly my favorite species in star wars. I love tribal cultures in science fiction and fantasy universes and the wookies fit the bill perfectly.

[@Thebabybadass101]

Love your content. Keep it coming.

[@Wishamoto]

You forgot to mention that they celebrate life days XD(holiday special)

[@apogeelord7013]

Nobody wants to mention that 😂

[@samhutchinson2268]

Great Video once again! good to see the channels growing bro, keep up the good work!

[@captassassin5680]

I would've like to have known more about other wookies involved in the rebellion. But thanks for the info, I really enjoyed it!

[@paratutor2537]

Hey guys you know what would be amazing in Mando season 2 or 3? We discover that Gungi the Padawan survives order 66... that would be AMAZING!!!

[@galaxyburp4352]

This video should be called star wars lore:bigfoots.

[@melonman872]

What about a droid attack on the wookies?

[@JaswantSingh-od6vd]

How come you did not mention how Han and Chewie liberated the wookies on Kashyyyk?

[@OfficialStroudFett]

Yes.... Finally

[@lonesparrow1306]

these guys are my favorite race

[@Jake5537t]

Same and eewoks

[@markterekhin2159]

Could you possibly make a mini video of sorts about the bowcaster? It seems like a very interesting and unique weapon.

[@RockyRailroadProductions_B0SS]

I hadn't known about that Imperial attack on Kashyyyk, ties in with the Force Unleashed I perfectly.

[@randomcontent789]

My dog sounds like a Wookie when she’s hungry or wants something else

[@ChurchOfCatology]

Kinda wished you talked a tad about nowadays... as in after the rebellion though.. but yea i liked it.

[@andrewskerritt667]

Love it battlefront clip

[@crazymajor1221]

OMG! Wookiee is spelt with 2 e's!

[@ronjeremy1654]

No lol

[@tobyellingwood8204]

I really want to see some slave wookies in rogue one, that'd be awesome

[@john-b2224]

Do a video on the Kaleesh next. They are too underrated.

[@sharkbaitnoob]

Yay! Can u do ewoks?

[@ARC9652]

Could you do a video of the history and lore of the Gundark?

[@neonshrimp3048]

i like wookies cool video

[@christosvoskresye]

A little-appreciated fact is that Wookie meat is absolutely delicious, tasting distinctly like chocolate. The meat of a Wookie youngling resembles milk chocolate in flavor, transitioning to dark chocolate in middle age and semi-sweet baking chocolate in elderly Wookies. It is believed that this flavor is acquired by the consumption of special foods during religious ceremonies. Eating even actual chocolate in the presence of an unrestrained Wookie is very unwise, probably because the scent of chocolate reminds them of their ceremonial foodstuff.

[@sigmarthegreat4693]

Should do a tactics video on how the army's work breh

[@patrickalexander3964]

I was wondering if you were going to mention the Wookie "Madclaws". Are they no longer canon? The only place I've ever heard of them was in Knights of the Old Republic, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was no longer canon. Are you making your videos specifically on the Disney Canon?

[@dewbackgaming659]

Lore guy you should make a history of the mask of mandalore video, or a vong, we need a vong video

[@ModernBattleClips]

He did multiple Mandalorian videos.

[@dewbackgaming659]

I mean the line of the mandalore mask, like going from the first mandalore to current day

[@thomasgrey6309]

OH! Oooh! Do one about that scourge of the galaxy! Humans! They seem to cause trouble wherever the heck they go. I'd like to know their history and where those bastids came from, and why they are fricken everywhere!

[@curlyshrub3222]

Heck yeah Wookies

[@johnw3609]

Wookie in their own language translates to "people of the trees"

[@ram2fingerinmyjam244]

Hail the wookiees!

[@ragingocelot4013]

Wookies are awesome

[@carriesmith7225]

but can they use the force?

[@treblazer]

I love Wookies

[@AndrewJohnson-yp2zt]

Great video but you masa a small error wookies speak multiple different forms of their own language but shywrook is the one used with outsiders

[@PGIFilms]

Little fun fact, in the Timothy Zahn (Thrawn) Trilogy of books Chewbacca takes Liea to Kashyyyk in an attempt to hide her from potential kidnappers. They meet with another Wookiee, an ambassador/administrator of a local village. Liea has never spoken with any other Wookiee before this and turns to Chewbacca and says (something along the lines of) "So all this time you've been speaking with a speech impediment?" because she always found it hard to understand Chewie, but could understand the ambassador perfectly. The Wookiee ambassador/administrator quickly corrects her saying that he is the one with the speech impediment, normally it is a disadvantage among other wookiees, but those like him with the same disadvantage are often in demand for negotiations, diplomacy, and other communications with humans because their version of speaking Shywrook is easier for human ears to understand.

[@JL-yg3ku]

I like wookies!

[@normanwells5726]

wookies are badass

[@logicaldeception1688]

Star Wars Episode 8: Space Wookies

[@Blue-2-u]

yoda plz :3 at 900 years old he must have some lore?

[@PGIFilms]

Little fun fact, in the novel The Courtship of Princess Liea, a younger Yoda (still only a Jedi Knight at the time) appears in the recording of a Holocron that Luke discovers. In it Jedi Knight Yoda is reporting to the Jedi Counsil that their mission failed and that they were repelled by "the witches of Dothimyr" and it motivates Luke to try and find that planet. The newer 3D-animated Clone Wars series does NOT portray Dothimyr or its inhabitants correctly, considering Disney's contempt for the EU. So this little tidbit of Yoda history supposedly isn't "real" Star Wars anymore. =(

[@anthonyrodriguez1119]

+PGIFilms dathomir was changed before Disney bought starwars pluse disney has never shown a particular dislike of the EU heck it seems like they are cherry picking the best bits EU like grand admiral thrawn the sith code and the bendu etc

[@bartmanfantanfart36]

Sadly his speacies are unknown and they have a complex language (they probably never made it for it)but fun fact Yoda's apprentice was count dooku

[@benburns3155]

Who do you think would win in a fight; a wookie or a mandalorian?

[@Batkenpre]

they would rip of there arms

[@dewbackgaming659]

Mandalorian, the flame throwers would be useful against the fur

[@dewbackgaming659]

But if you meant a hand to hand fight, wookie in a heart beat

[@Batkenpre]

Hand to hand if not then they win

[@TheVideogametacticsTVGT]

Depends what mandalorian.. Not all of them were so bright.

[@aeirialechols3852]

A Wookie that weighs 100-150kgs is underweight and probably malnourished if they stand at 2 to 2 and a half meters tall. I stand 198cm, so nearly 2 meters tall, and weigh 115kgs myself.

Theres a wookie jedi who speaks basic and it has always annoyed me.

[@PGIFilms]

Blame Disney for their lazy production staff and (sometimes) unimaginative writers. If I remember correctly (I forgot what source it came from) Wookiees are not capable of human speech because their vocal chords and voice boxes and mouths are not capable of making the proper sounds. The Young Jedi Knights series of novels introduce Chewbacca's nephew, Lowbacca, that trains to become a Jedi with Han and Liea's twins (Jacen & Jaina Solo) along with Tenel Ka, the daughter of Tenel Djo and Prince Isolder from the Courtship of Princess Liea novel. Lowbacca uses the tiny droid M-TD (that he sometimes wears on his bandoleer) to translate for him.

[@tenthshadowstep]

PGIFilms This was actually pre disney

[@PGIFilms]

Which book did that Basic-speaking Wookiee appear in?

[@tenthshadowstep]

Im not 100% sure
