Star Wars Races: Ithorians (Lore)

[@tylerbeckett1707]

This race definitely deserved the spotlight for once. Well done, Soup!

[@SciFi_Soup]

+Tyler Beckett Agreed, Ithorians are much too looked over. Thanks as always Tyler

[@GreyJedi91]

Definitely one of my favorite species. Well done!

[@SciFi_Soup]

+GreyJedi91 They are my personal favorite as well, along with the Chiss. Thanks as always!

[@taiwofarimoyo2187]

they would be good friends with anyone :)

[@thechillgaurdian427]

This video actually made them one of my favorite species in Star Wars as well

[@EmperorMAD]

Thank you so much for this video. Ithorians have been my favorite alien race since I was a kid. I just thought their design was super cool. I had some of the Kenner Star Wars figures from the 70's when I was little and I always pretended that Hammerhead was the most powerful one and Darth Vader worked for him. Great job on the video.

[@SciFi_Soup]

+EmperorMAD Who knew an Ithorian could rule the galaxy with an iron fist :p Thanks for the kind words!

[@diegodelamata2435]

I felt really bad when I saw Ithor devastated. Imagine how must have felt for an Ithorian. Your home, your history, your Goddess is gone. The basic tennets of your society are being wiped out from the Galaxy.

[@NYCQuint]

They are the canadians of the swu

[@janglenutter3820]

No they aren't, they're cool. Canada isn't cool. It's just cold and over taxed.

[@hansolo1571]

Canada is not peaceful because they too send their troops to invade other countries like US do. Maybe once was.

[@kroneexe]

More like the Bhutanese of the SWU.

[@michaelblower7363]

I'd say they're the Space Hippies. :D

[@jemroko7887]

I like this video. I really enjoy learning new things about the Star Wars Galaxies I didn't know before.

[@SciFi_Soup]

+Jem Roko Glad to hear it, thanks for the support Jem

[@jemroko7887]

You're very welcome.

[@Hairyniggaballs-g8i]

I always underestimated these guys. I could never imagine how interesting they are! Now I want to meet them! Well, I want to meet everyone in the Star Wars Universe

[@SciFi_Soup]

Wookies and Trandoshans will be the next two races to be featured

[@Fidarsiitaliani20]

+Soup the Eternal can you please make a Video about the Ssi-ruu that would be great :)

[@jackdennis3626]

Please do the sith purebloods

[@jackdennis3626]

Please do the toydarians

[@zaphyra-]

I have been always interested in ithorians

[@tuhtols]

this is great, I've always loved Ithorians since I was a child! can't wait for your next video!

[@SciFi_Soup]

+tuhtols Me too, they are one of my personal favorites. More should be coming this weekend, thanks for the kind words :)

[@ForklifterMatt]

Really well done! I love Ithorians, especially in KOTOR and KOTOR II. Also, your editing was especially good in this video. Really shows your progression as a Star Wars KZbinr and a lot faster than I progressed :P

[@SciFi_Soup]

+ForklifterMatt Yeah one of my fondest memories of KOTOR 2 is helping the Ithorians and beating back Czerka, I wish I would have touched upon that a bit in the video but I'm not really sure what choices Revan made in that situation in regards to EU canon Thanks for the kind words Matt, give yourself more credit though You easily surpass my editing and narration, and I think you have progressed very well since I've started watching

[@ForklifterMatt]

Soup the Eternal Yeah, Czerka's the worst :) No problem, I love seeing entertaining and well made videos and thank you! I appreciate it.

[@luisgaray8413]

another great Video man i never knew to much about this species but thanks to your video they are a more interesting and profound race in my eyes

[@SciFi_Soup]

+Luis Garay Glad to hear it Luis :) thanks as always

[@noble-zk3jd]

Ithorians are my favorite race in Star Wars

[@SciFi_Soup]

+noble000007 Same here, they're highly underrated

[@ahsokatano1065]

[@aicentral1531]

+Dylan Harvey Aqualish is a race that hasn't been suggested yet if memory serves, I'll add them to the list. Thanks for the suggestion and the support!

[@xavierford9241]

great video man, i have some questions - could there be a sith species jedi - what would a hybrid of a togruta and twi'lek - when is kota v darach coming - could you do a what if series

[@SciFi_Soup]

+Xavier Ford There was a Sith Pureblood Jedi in SWTOR, so yes and I'm sure he is not the only one I'm not sure what a hybrid between togruta and twi'lek would look like, probably not all that much different except for longer lekku maybe Kota vs Darach will be uploaded on Friday, FINALLY :p And a what if series is definitely a possibility, I love the idea of it Thanks for the support as always Xavier

[@xavierford9241]

+Soup the Eternal here's an idea what if dooku went to fight maul and opress and dies

[@SciFi_Soup]

Xavier Ford That's actually a very good topic of discussion

[@SciFi_Soup]

Xavier Ford Yeah I may have to do this haha, would you like credit for the idea in the video? Not sure when it would be out but I like the idea

[@xavierford9241]

+Soup the Eternal after the fight maul would know that his master is coming for them and they would go into hiding or train to kill sidious, or both, and just credit me at the being, here's other idea what if dooku was turned back to the light.

[@joedurban3244]

Thank you for this I've been looking for a video like this

[@TheMuser1791]

Dang! the Ithorians got the alderaan treatment by the vong :/ On a brighter note, Great Video! always extremely informative!

[@joshwilkins9138]

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!

[@SciFi_Soup]

+Josh Wilkins Thank you! Much appreciated

[@joshwilkins9138]

Soup the Eternal No problem. However, I do have a question: Is there a story behind the name for your channel?

[@SciFi_Soup]

Josh Wilkins Haha sorta, my name was originally "SciFi Soup" but I was almost exclusively doing Star Wars content, which isn't really Sci-fi in the traditional sense. People also seemed to be getting the impression that i was some sort of partnership channel, because SciFi Soup almost sounds like a collective of people rather than just a single person. People were also expecting me to act super professional because of this belief, which isn't something I signed up for. So I changed the name but wanted to keep the Soup part so my subscribers would recognize me. I added The Eternal because of a character from Warhammer 40k I like, and also because all living things are sort of an Eternal Soup of elements that can never be truly erased. I thought it fit given the theme of Star Wars and the occasional Sci-Fi stuff I plan on doing in the near future

[@joshwilkins9138]

Soup the Eternal mk cool. Thanks :) Can't wait for your next upload!

[@rsookchand919]

Awesome video. Can the next video either be the Mandalorians or Wookies?

[@SciFi_Soup]

+SPARTAN Ravindra-919 Wookies will be coming next, probably Friday :) Mandalorians (Taung) will be coming in the near future

[@Hitokimi]

it would be neat to see you do a video on Nautolans

[@SciFi_Soup]

+CouragePope Mon Calamari should be here within the coming weeks, they're a race I'm excited to work on

[@joshuawayne573]

Please do an episode on the Anzati

[@Mmadore32]

I love ithorians! Roron corobb i one of my favorite jedi

[@Daniel_Huffman]

If Judy Hopps' testimony is anything to go off of, calling an Ithorian a "Hammerhead" is the Star Wars equivalent of someone on Earth calling a rabbit "cute". Neither species naturally have the correct vocal cords, but to both, the terms are *extremely* offensive to them. Of course, rabbits, Givins, and Bith can also be compared for being *phenomenal* mathematicians.

[@jwhaler82]

You should do a video on the Hutts.

[@skyslasher2297]

Sci I have a question which predictor are you useing in that video

[@SciFi_Soup]

+Skylander dude Scar from AVP

[@skyslasher2297]

+Soup the Eternal so is it skar or his brother and thanks for letting me know which movie your using

+Soup the Eternal thanks

[@skyslasher2297]

[@besaidknight]

I've always been curious about this race since I've seen them from KOTOR2. Really interested to learn about a race that can heal force damaged force sensitives. ^_^

[@randomduderandomdude-zm9ww]

its sad that those aliens are better, peaceful and more gentle than humans

[@taiwofarimoyo2187]

yup

[@xavierford9241]

by the way do you thank kota uses form 3

[@nothsadaskulldrake9734]

my fav race in starwars also they look like hammahead sharks

[@Iomungard]

I really love the Ithorians they are amazing and powerful i remember when i saw how Roron Corobb use the force scream and destroy everything....but he die T-T. I don't know why i can't be a Ithorian or Talz in any game of Star wars.

[@100dfrost]

Soup, good job on this video. This is, perhaps, one of my least favorite SW races, so thank-you for doing research I would not have undertaken, and presenting it in an easily digestible format. I did really enjoy your video on Twi'leks,. one of my more favorite races (for obvious reasons), but I did not comment at the time. Once again, thank-you. Dante.

[@SciFi_Soup]

+100dfrost Glad you liked the video regardless, and as always thanks for the support Dante!

[@100dfrost]

+Soup the Eternal Soup, reading over my response to this video, it did sound as if I "damning you with faint praise". I apologize for that. You did, as always a very good job on this video. I don't really get excited about the race presented, that does not mean that you did not do an excellent job in that presentation. Once more thank-you. Dante.

[@SciFi_Soup]

100dfrost It didn't come off that way to me at all Dante, no worries, and thanks again :)

when i saw star wars as a kid I always referred to this dude as "Hammerhead"

[@originaluddite]

That was also what the original Kenner action figure was called. Only later was info on its species developed. I'm baffled that they're classified as mammalian.

[@maximumeffort7096]

Their Mamals? I always thought they were Slugs.

[@cosmicmemer1611]

So if we lived in Star Wars we can have ithorians for earape videos?

[@LiliaArmoury]

wow their story is tragic

[@tycondero1647]

They are just the all respectful feel good race in Star Wars. If Star Wars would be real I would feel very very sorry for what happened to them during the Empire. They didn't deserve to be treated like that.

[@SciFi_Soup]

Definitely not, they largely kept to themselves and were a peaceful race

[@ZiotGaming]

Why didn't they live on the surface?

[@bigtonithegreatjamboni9850]

It's part of their religion, they love nature so much they don't want to interfere with it in any way. Letting it grow in it's most natural state possible.
