The Twins were created unnaturally with Force Magick by Those Witches, The Force created Anakin naturally on its own, they wrote themselves into a corner when they said The Twins came from “the thread” which is the witch’s name for the force. They could’ve said they’re unnatural Products of Force Magick, instead of saying they came from The Force, as that implies it was natural like The Virgin Birth that is Anakin. What's as convoluted is that those witches created them with the force rather then them being created by the force itself so it implies they accomplished the ability to Create life by violating the force, something The Sith failed to do. Wanna see how it gets more complicated? 😂: In George’s Canon (G-Canon) Anakin was a complete virgin birth, & the entire idea of creating life by the Darkside was apparently a bill of goods Palpatine tried to sell Anakin according to George, which means The Entire Darth Plagueis Story in G-Canon could be fabricated by Palpatine. Though There was an early draft in Revenge Of The Sith' s Script where it was revealed that Palpatine actually did create Anakin through The Force and was his father but George changed that That's probably The influence behind that Darth Vader comic in Disney Canon you were referring to. Expanded Universe 's Canon, Palpatine & Plagueis tried to dominate the force and create life Dark side but The Force rejected their attempts & created Anakin to destroy The Sith as a result making The Prophecy true. Then we have Disney Canon where like you mentioned it's implied in That Darth Vader entirely later. In The through The Comic, Issue#25 at least that Palpatine was able to create Anakin through The Force, and since The Acolyte had Plagueis watching those witches do it , means Plagueis probably learned it and taught this ability to Palpatine. In this case I prefer The EU’s version of events (despite being a George Canon purist) because it establishes The Sith tried to create life from the force & it ironically caused The Force to react negatively creating a chosen one meant to wipe them out! G-Canon & The Expanded Universe Versions make the most sense, since anyone creating life from the force instead of the force creating life naturally on its own is highly unlikely in Star Wars, regardless of The Force or Force Magick. Force Magick in G-Canon is established to be unstable by its unconventional nature, while in The EU, Force Magick is just The Darkside used differently. Disney Canon has made Force Magick very OP in creating life automatically from The Force like the magic comes straight out of Marvel or DC.

Nothing will change as long as the same people are in charge. They double down on their decisions, attack fans, and divide the fandom. The house needs to be cleaned. A lot of people miss the point that Star Wars is universal. All walks of life related to the first 6 movies. They are timeless. Whereas todays Star Wars feels like a product of its time. Great video.

My first memory of Star Wars (when it was only Star Wars) was going into the theater with my parents and seeing the end credits and starting to cry. When my parents asked why, i said we missed the movie....not realizing that my 7 yr old mind didn't know that movies played more than once a day. I grew up with the EU and still listen to Heir to the Empire (imo, the singularly BEST trilogy out side of the main one) on Audible once a year. I tried to connect with what Disney put out, but it just didn't have that sense of universality, or epic stories of good vs. evil i found prior to 2012. But again, that's me.

I really try with Disney. But I can't have faith in them. Especially after the abysmal Disney trilogy. Ever since then, I have had no confidence in them. I don't blame Daisy Ridley or John Boyega. They were victims of terrible writing. It was the way the legacy characters were treated. And trying to make the Disney heros relevant. But you don't disrespect legacy characters, especially Luke Skywalker.

Anyway it's not that I don't like - or I'm not a fan of some of the others who I've heard give honest critique to Star Wars and what Disney has done as of late - and I am extremely frustrated with people who seemingly just don't care about their core audience and in some cases have expressed what seems like they despise us. That being said I think this presentation of YOURS was a great example why you are the BEST dude. You didn't shitbag anyone, no politics involved, you just gave the criticism exactly where it should be directed. Job well done and THANK YOU.

I really think the bulk of the Disney Star Wars hate comes from the prequel kids. For a lot of us that grew up with the original trilogy, the prequels don’t have the real Star Wars feel. Heck, the Holiday Special and Ewok movies feel more like REAL Star Wars. And though there’s a lot of bad stuff from the Disney era. I’d say it’s 50/50 with the good, which includes some of the first Star Wars we’ve gotten since the 80’s that really feels like Star Wars. Stuff like Mando and Rogue One. Andor is great, but as a Star Wars show, I think Mando’s first two seasons beat it out easily, and it feels far more like Star Wars than the prequels ever did.

The prequels were bad…except for 3. That was before Disney. That was George Lucas. The threequels started off good, then Riann Johnson ruined it with the second throwing the whole first movie out, and forcing the third to be a disjointed mess. That was Lucas films helmed by Kathleen Kennedy not Disney. Disney owns Lucas Films, they don’t run it. Just like they own the MCU, but it’s ran by Kevin Feige. I know everyone wants to blame Disney but, the fault lies on Kathleen Kennedy. Even then though, she has had way more hits than misses. The real burden of Star Wars is the fans. There used to be a debate about who had the worst fans, Star Wars or Star Trek…Star Wars fans have said hold my beer, brandy, gin, whiskey, rum and weed.

My way to enjoy Star Wars is to set low expectations and not engage with it's fandom. Believe me, your enjoyment definitely improves, even though their output is kind of alright

I'm sorry to all the Disney supporters (the loud minority of people who decided to die on that hill), but a story that starts with the nuking of 40 years of stablished lore and content would NEVER end well for Lucasfilm. If they kept the continuity of the EU running parallel to the "New Cannon", I firmly believe they wouldn't face as much opposition because the people currently and fiercily opposing them now would be happy with the EU and wouldn't bother with their failures in the Sequels. But in their arrogance they believed leaving people without any choice other than consuming their new stuff they would succeed, and yet here we are today. They gave people like me no other choice than hating them, so in my opinion they don't even have the right to complain about their recent failures like The Acolyte. I wouldn't give a flying F about their activism If they didn't deprived me of projects like the "Sword of The Jedi" trilogy of books or Force Unleashed 3. But sadly for everyone, for these people It's either my way or the highway, AND ON THE HIGHWAY TO HELL WE GO SINCE 2012...

I agree with some of the criticisms shared in the video. I think Disney lacks a broad vision for Star Wars. It seems that they are focused on milking it for profit rather than telling a compelling narrative. It sucks, but that's corporate greed.

If I were ever in charge of Star Wars I would make legends canon and brand Disney’s story as myths. I think what makes some of their stories work like Fallen order is they don’t get familiar characters involved or tamper with older lore too much. They should have at least hired writers that know how to make great stories.

I think the one of their biggest mistakes is that they mass produce content to hopefully land a good series or movie. If they took their time for a good story, really worked through a plot, and spaced out a series, then i believe it could be fantastic. This would also leave fans anxious and excited for everything that drops. Disney only cares about the money at this point and they have killed the interest for me in such an amazing franchise. I will only recognize what be was made under Lucas
