On the "Did Han know?" thing, you guess forgot a moment I think is very important: Han talking to Maz. Because in the castle when Rey walks away and ends up finding the Saber Maz looks at Han and gives him a "you're hiding something from me" look and asks "Alright, who's the girl?". Han gives her a grimace and it cuts away. Then the next time we see Maz she had followed Rey down to the relic basement and seems intrigued by the saber calling to her. Now that part could just be a general "oh the force lead someone here" then "oh the force lead YOU specifically here". So between the knowing looks at Rey that Han gives and the Maz thing I do think that JJ was trying to set up that Han knew more than he let on
Q&A Hey I have a question for you guys If the Rebel alliance were so short on manpower to fight against the Empire why did they never try and reactivate some battle droids from the clone wars to fill out the ranks a bit. Obviously the real explanation was battle droids didn't exist yet but I was wondering if there was an in universe explanation.
Most of the battle droids were decayed by the time the Rebellion was in full swing. I think they said something about it on an episode of the behind the scenes for Rebels. A droid landed a head shot on Rex’s helmet and it didn’t kill him because the droid had decayed
In Fallen Order we see how quick they were to scrap even republic ships, so I wouldn't be surprised if battle droids were scrapped en masse. Of course there were so many they couldn't all be scrubbed away, as we've seen battle droid bits as far as the sequels. I don't remember exactly, but I'm pretty sure other than that the only times we see battle droids are ones being used by people who can afford to have newer or preserved droids. As for manufacturing new ones, we know the factory on geonosis was destroyed, so its safe to assume that as soon as the CIS was defeated the droid factories were destroyed so that a group like the rebels wouldn't be able to use them. But then by the time of the Mandalorian, we see that the New Republic is using new forms of security battle droids, so it was definitely on some ones mind. So I wouldn't be surprised if there were stories at some point about some Rebel cells using repurposed battle droids to fight the empire.
I have seen the Clone Wars, and they said in the Clone Wars that the Jedi had previously taken down it, but the events of the Clone Wars allowed them to rebuild

Saying Han knew she was a Palpatine in that "so much green" scene is like thinking Ben force healed Luke when he leaned over him. Not every action in Star Wars is something special. Maybe when Leia calls him a scruffy looking nerfherder, the way Han looks at her, that's the moment he falls in love lol
That's what i figured. Leia then probably worked it out when she first met Rey, was told she was from Jakku and could probably sense the underlying bloodline.
i believe its explained its because he could sense her through their dyad for a long time, and when they met and he probed her mind the dyad finally formed in full
I think that KYLO never knew that Rey was Something special in TFA But Snoke warned him slightly on a girl on Jakku and then in TROS he found out who she really is,but I still feel that somebody still knew little on her Identity
We all know that the story was changed, but I think for the better, when it comes to Rey. The fact she’s a Palpatine, just makes her a m ore interesting character. It also leaved The Mandelorian open to going somewhere that explores the early days of her and Ben’s life. He is five in the current timeline, and she will be born in five years, which can be accelerated with time jumps between each season. I think they should bring back Rey, but at the right time. I also think it should focus on a different storyline, but one that has some connection to her bloodline. She also has those Journals of Luke’s, and all the Jedi scripts, which could lead her to all sorts of places.
Q&A: in Battlefront II’s campaign, Dell Meeko recognised a Star Destroyer, the Dauntless, above Vardos. How did he recognise that specific grey triangle? It’s not like Thrawn’s Chimara with a unique paint job. It’s just another standard looking ISD.
i've always wondered that too, unless he had a screen in front of him that identified all craft and he was able to bring up details at the touch of a button...
@@LazyGyro I'll be honest, I wrote the comment before I saw the vid, convinced that I was the only one to think of this, but no, we're all thinking it.
I truly believe J.J. had the idea of Rey being related to Sidious while working on TFA. Of course he didn’t planned to make it happen as such back then since Trevorrow was director of IX in that moment. But back in early 2016, media asked J.J. if he knew something about Rey’s parentage. His response was “I know some stuff”. I can safely guess he had this idea of Sidious around, probably left it in writing for directors of VIII and IX as reference whether they would develop the idea or not. When he was offered the opportunity to direct IX he might’ve seen the chance to take his own idea and develop it himself. So this is all wild guesses, I know. But I believe there’s plenty of room for believing J.J. had Sidious in mind as ancestor of Rey from the very beginning.
Q/A: What planets from Star Wars books that we don’t have any pictures of or visual material on would you pick to actually get pictures/illustrations of?
Q/A: More often than not, when someone is mind tricked, they parrot back what was said to them. Do you think when Yoda mind tricks someone, they parrot it back in his backwards speak?
The major hint that Han knew who Rey was is when Maz asks him, "who's the girl?", which is immediately followed by a cut. When I first saw the film, I assumed that he knew who she was because of his knowing looks and oddly uncomfortable behaviour. But it works equally well if he didn't know to be honest, as him knowing or not doesn't really end up mattering. The bigger question is when Leia and Luke found out, because I find that difficult to track. It was *clearly* decided in the final film, but so was Luke and Leia being siblings in RoTJ, so it always seems lazy to just say that! JJ co-wrote both TFA and TROS so it seems plausible that this was his plan from the start.
I feel like Leia knew from the moment she saw her walking from the falcon... And that is 80% of the reason why she went to hug her. A lost and confused girl who's force has awakened but who is yet innocent and unknowing enough to be good... and she sees Palpatine's spirit right through as well. She is smart enough to know that shunning and individual because of their lineage and darkness isn't the right way to go about it so she gives her a tight embrace instead. So she goes to embrace her, right away, to offer her unconditional care and love so that this being with a dark past wouldn't go dark. She also is compensating for the loss she endured, she knew she failed Kylo after she felt him kill his father. She didn't offer him the home he needed, she wasn't there for him. So she embraces Rey, as to state that she won't make the same mistake again. Luke got a scent with the scene where he says _you went straight to the dark_ . But he figures it out when he reconnects with Leia, remembers the light and hope she brings and goes to help the galaxy fully believing in Rey even with her past. _I will not be The Last Jedi._
@@kungolaf4499 None of the characters knew, because Darth Sidious is all of the ghosts on IX. Both Jedi and Sith ghosts. So, we never hear Luke / Leia perspectives, we only get a Darth Sidious lies.
I'm not sure that really matters. Fan theories are never based on trying to uncover some actual hidden truth that the author of a work put in. They're about treating the work more seriously than intented to forge new connections and ideas. I feel like a lot of fans these days put way too much stock into authorial intent.
In answer to the meaning of the darth title, according to the book bane path of destruction the darth title was a used as a challange to other dark Lords. A statement of power and dominion.
3:04 Given how unlikely it is for us getting Legends content alongside Canon, a series that's basically the equivalent of Dark Side endings of every Star Wars game is even more unlikely. 13:26 Well he did the exact same thing in Legends to slow down the Jedi trying to find out his/Sidious' identity.
It was more plausible before the Disney buyout since we already had the Infinities series with Episodes 4, 5 and 6. With the “new” canon, I think Disney will want to keep the lore consistent and not want to confuse people with What Ifs. As big as the MCU is money wise, it is still tiny lore wise when compared to the amount of media Star Wars already encompasses: comics, TV, film, video games, books, all with different original characters like Doctor Aphra, Sabine Wren, Kal Cestus, Alphabet Squadron.
Q&A: Was (Darth) Maul’s name given to him by Sidious or was it his birth name? If it was his Sith name, why did he keep it after he left the Sith and hated Palpatine? Also thanks for answering my Bendu question! :)
I think the names are provided through the Force and given by the master, rather than made up by the master at the time. All of the Darth names have had some form of meaning behind them as to the character's intention or intended outcome like annihilation (Nihilus), malicious (Maul), tyranny (Tyranus), entrapment/beguile ((in)Sidious), etc. Not sure exactly how Vader is determined in that line of thinking... anyone???
@@darrenoleary5952 I heard Vader is derived from the word "father" in german and darth is derived from the word "dark" can't remember if that was from German as well? So Darth Vader translates as Dark Father. Sorry, I don't remember where I read that?
@@darthoblivion2615 yeah, I've read that too, but there are details online that sort of discredit that thought as the German pronunciation of 'Vader' is different. If it were true to have it translate as 'Dark Father', would it then perhaps suggest that Palps/Sidious knew that Padme was pregnant with Anakin's child.
In Rebels Maul says to Ezra something like: "I once had a real name. So long ago I don't remember." Then he says he is now called Maul. So I would say Maul is his Sith name, but he doesn't know what his given name is so he just goes by Maul and dropped the Darth title.
I knew she was a Palpatine since the midnight premiere of The Force Awakens. To me it was obviously always part of the plan, her fighting style was the biggest giveaway.
In my head, I just assumed Leia knew from old Rebellion intelligence that Palpatine had a son and that son had a daughter. At least that's the easiest route I can see to explain it.
Mofasser Arafat Yes, obviously that's what I meant by "son". As far as the writing of Rey's origin is concerned they wrote the clone as a "son" to justify calling Rey Palpatine's granddaughter. Let's not argue semantics when the wording makes no difference.
@@ianscultgaming3601 You misunderstood me. I meant that if they were indeed sons of Palps then it makes no sense for Leia to know about them and do nothing as they ARE potential threats. Remember, she IS a Jedi. This just shows how much stuff they made up as they went along. I completely agree that they wrote that clone part in to retcon TLJ, as it's JJ's "mystery box". Such a shitshow.
Mofasser Arafat If the clone was a nonthreat I don't think Leia would have gone after him. It's not in her character to go after someone whose not taking apart in the war just because of their lineage. Jedi or not, she wouldn't harm someone whose not actively or planning to harm others even preemptively. I could totally see her holding onto the info to monitor the clone and even keeping the data from other rebellion leaders who would attack an innocent man based off his lineage. In a way that makes her more of a Jedi than almost every Jedi we've seen.
@@ianscultgaming3601 ok, but wouldn't Luke have found out? I especially can't tell what Sequel Luke would've done cuz he was a completely different character here. Like, in the OT, He found tried to redeem Vader from the Dark Side, but here he tries to kill Ren before he had even turned!!! But I guess maybe you're right about the Leia thing.
Maz Kanata seems like she knew and with what we know it makes sense "I have seen those eyes before"-Maz She told Rey her parents weren't coming back. Maybe the "drinking money" was spent at Maz's Castle
I think Luke expected it after he trained Rey. He saw her power and her draw to the dark. And the audience gets to see the parallel between Luke throwing a lightsaber away years ago because Palpatine wanted him to be a Sith and again years later when Rey wanted him to be a Jedi. Both times, he denies a Palpatine what they want, and throws away his weapon. It turned out to be the biggest hint before Ep. 9.
I'm betting Han was totally clueless about Rey, he just wanted another co-pilot and help for Chewie and himself. I loved the whole "I don't think anybody knew, not even JJ Abrams" 😂
Great point! Totally agree. JJ didn’t even know she was a Palpatine at that time. When I first saw Awakens, I thought Han knew who she was (but I was thinking it was because she was his niece at the time). How wrong I was.
Everyone’s so quick to blame Rian Johnson for the new trilogy’s problems even though JJ set up all those “mystery boxes” with no plan on what’s behind them
That's not how the Sith think. Their greatest goal is immortality, so first off they're not even concerned about who's in power 1000 years down the line, because they want to be that being, live that long and more. Secondly, they may be selfish but they're still smart, and religious. Low numbers ensures their strength gradually increases with no competition, and they can remain in hiding from the Jedi. Sith are forced to have an apprentice for their religion to carry on. If the last existing Sith died, their religion dies with them. It's not as simple as me selfish, me no teach!
At first they didn't follow the rule of 2. When the sith were only bringing eachother down for power, a sith named Kaan created the Brotherhood of Darkness. Basically it was a power grabbing "jedi order" using the dark arts. However, what would happen, is that the weak would gang up on the strong, causing the weak to survive. This was ofcourse weakening the sith order. Darth Bane saw this happening, after obtaining knowledge from a holocron he realises something: There should only be 2 sith. One with all the power and one who craves it. If the Apprentice is able to take the mantle from the Master, it means that the Apprentice has grown stronger than the Master (by killing the master). By doing this over and over, the sith grow stronger and stronger. I think almost every sith master (aside Darth Bane) think they are the Sith'ari. The Sith'ari is basically the one who will wipe the jedi out according to Sith legend. So whilst the Sith are plotting to take down the Jedi (which are automatically linked to the Republic), I don't think they are doing it for further generations, but actually for themselves (because they think they can do it in their lifetime).
Question from someone who just realized that there are 2 ppl now in Star Wars Explained. Are you guys a couple? I think i been seeing Star Wars Explained with just the dude. Great with pretty face with my morning coffee. (Please dont take this the wrong way, it's just a compliment.) 👍 if you agree. I had a look at the info page. I subscribed 24.11.2014. So pretty sure now it used to be just the dude. Way to keep up to date!
Q&A: With Squadrons coming up, I was curious if the “snow speeder” was specifically a cold weather ship or could it have been utilized in the rebel alliance elsewhere?
Q&A: Do you think Epidode 10 (totally brand new Saga that is not part of the Skywalker Saga) will focus on a brand new Republic since the New Republic and Hosian Prime were destroyed by the First Order?
Q&A: Are the locations shown in video games, like in Battlefront II, canon? I think DICE did a great job at adapting locations from the movies, but Jabbas Palace, for example, feels too small on the inside in my opinion.
If the K-wing was to return I would hope they overhaul it's visual design, cause it ain't the prettiest ship. And to build off that I would have rather than a bomber it plays the role of gunship.
Q&A: It is made clear in comics and films that vader and palpatine didn't know that he had twins so wouldn't It have made more sense to keep luke and leia together as vaders isn't gna go looking for twins.
I know this is intended for Star Wars Explained, but I just wanted to give my two cents. Since no one knew Anakin was having twins, if they were separated and one was found, Vader and Palpatine wouldn't expect there to be another child out there. If they were together and were found, Vader might've sensed that they were both his children and that Padme had twins.
A You Tube channel called What if does lots of what ifs and are very good ones too. One playlist is all about Ahsoka Tano and are his best What if to date.
Here's my list of ultimate what if's?? 1. What if Qui Gon Jinn defeated Maul at Naboo. Would the Jedi Council have allowed Obi Wan to teach Anakin then? ( I always considered them allowing Anakin to be trained as complying to Qui Gon's last wishes). This raises an interesting prospect. Would Anakin have turned to the dark side then? *Would Qui Gon have joined the Separatists as claimed by Dooku in AOTC* ( Qui Gon was Dooku's apprentice) 2. What if Ahsoka never left the Jedi Order. We can all agree that she represented his good and caring side, probably more than Padme. Would he have joined the Dark Side if she was alongside him. Sidious would know that she was a theat and try to remove her so, that would be an interesting dynamic. 3. What if Luke listened to Yoda and Obi Wan and decided that killing Vader was the only way to defeat the Empire, instead of trying to turn him to the Light Side. Would he have been killed? Or, more likely, would he have been turned to the Dark Side as well????
I don’t think Han knew, I think Leia figured it out. Given her previous life as a politician and a royal. She probably would have heard talk that Palpatine had a son got married and a child. And suddenly the family disappeared. And when Rey pops up with this dark power , along with the curious fact that she comes from a back water like Jakku yet sounds as if she comes from the aristocracy. She just put 2 and 2 together. And figured this was Palpatine’s grandaughter.
Q/A: I was watching Clone wars today, one of the last episodes of season 2. Plo koon and Ahsoka Tano were heading into a nightclub and a poster in the backround said in Aurabesh "Max Reebo" I instantly recognised the band. Do you think this is an Easter Egg or something else? Do you think the Max Reebo band were playing on Coruscant before Jabba hired them?
Q/A: Hello from Italy! Do you think The Mandalorian will connect itself heavily into the sequel trilogy (explaining stuff relaed to the First Order, Snoke, Palpatine, trying to give more depth to that era just like The Clone Wars did for the prequels) or it will remain its own story, with only some small connections? Thank you!
The writers knew when Abrams was made the new director and they threw out Trevorrow's script. Abrams initially pushed the idea of Palpatine returning and Rey being his granddaughter back while making TFA, but Lucasfilm shut him down.
I wouldn’t be shocked if Palpatine set up his capture to keep Anakin from Maul. It reminds of how in Legends he set up his capture to keep the Jedi from discovering he was Sidious after they got their hands on Gunray’s mech-no chair
I don’t think Han knew. He was planning to drop her and Finn in a random planet after he got back the Eravana... He didn’t recognize Rey. But Luke and Leia... maybe they felt it in the Force. I bet Luke felt it while training her in The Last Jedi, when he was sort of forced to get back to connecting with the Force. Leia might’ve known for longer in The Force Awakens.
Q&A: since squadrons takes place shortly after the Freemaker Adventures, and we see Hera wearing the same jacket she did in the show, do you think there's a chance of the Freemakers appearing in the game? maybe to customize your ship you have to go to Zander Freemaker, Superstar Pilot Guy?
Q&A: Do you think The Bad Batch series could incorporate some of the planned, unfinished arcs intended for The Clone Wars, like some of the Cad Bane/Boba Fett/Bounty Hunter arc, where they do a job on Tatooine and end up dueling? They'd have to change some things to set it after Order 66, but it was such promising and important arc for Boba and Bane that I would love to see it finally completed.
Q/A Counterpoint on the Sith being quiet for so long: Would be weird that a bunch of Dark Siders are so selfless and disciplined that they would not want to have power for themselves but would work for a next generation. Doesnt vibe with Ambition, Passion, etc. Question being: would it not make more sense that there were more attempts at a Sith take-over but that they failed? It would also make a lot more sense for Jedi to be still running around with Lightsabers in a galaxy of blasters-only.
I’m hazarding a guess Luke was able to “see” who Rey was in the rush of emotion when he walked in on her and Ben. He couldn’t have seen it during “Lesson 1” ; he was much too shocked she leaned into the Dark Side. The one time he name-drops Darth Sidious he doesn’t seem to grimace or hesitate either, so I doubt he knew then. As for Leia... her knowing/seeing right away in 7 would have been intense enough to be why she ignored Chewie. It’s possible she found enough clues (maybe from talking to Lando) to know some Palpatine granddaughter was out there and possibly on Jakku, Ochi’s last known location.
Q/A Do you think we can ever see Starkiller come back into canon? Or at least someone with that level of power. He is still my favorite character in all Star War
Q&A: Do you think there is a connection between The Bindu and Kanan, how it was hinted that Kanan turned into a wolf-like animal he may have become a type of Bindu like figure?
Q/a we have 2 confirmed directors (johnson and waititi) and 1 confirmed producer (feige)for upcoming star wars films. Which one do you think will be the creators of the 2022 film?
Triston Peterson I dunno, I’d like to think a great director would have done their homework before attempting to shift the direction of a beloved franchise... but that’s my opinion
Yeah Han got the sense that Rey has been stuck on her planet plus she has mechanical skills, so thats why he decided to offer her a job as a crew member. I think JJ also probably thought out a variety of possibilities for Reys backstory. Because Ian Mcdiarmid is an older actor, him being cast to return for the final movie would not have been possible.
Han was force sensitive. It's practically confirmed. Maybe he didn't KNOW Rey was a Palpatine specifically, but he could tell something was up with her at the very least.
Q/A: When Kylo goes to fight Luke on Crait, why didn't Kylo have sith eyes when he encounters him face-to-face or after the fight when he realizes when it was a force projection? He had sith/dark side eyes for a moment when he bleeds his kyber crystal in the Rise of Kylo Ren comics.
Q&A: Are you guys planning on doing a rebels rewatch after you finish with the clone wars rewatch? I didn’t have a chance to watch the series show by show the first time, so it would be cool if I had you guys to break it down with each episode!
As far as other Sith trying to overthrow the Republic, it's important to remember that it takes way more than one chancellorship to take down a whole Republic. The Sith would have built and strengthened a whole massive system of corruption and darkness and passed along the names of corrupted people and worlds apprentice by apprentice. Then finally when they felt they were ready, a lone Sith lord could attempt to infiltrate the highest levels of power and throw the switch. Beyond that, I would also assume that some Sith lords were relatively non-interventionist and more interested in pursuing the mysteries of the Force and their own philosophy rather than taking an active role in the age-old 'let's destroy the Republic' wishful scenario.
Q/A If there are droids called hyena bombers and vulture droids, does that mean mean hyenas and vultures exist in the star wars universe? Also isn't it interesting that humans and ducks evolved on different planets?
Q&A I was wondering if Being force sensitive in Yoda’s species was extremely rare high is why we haven’t seen many of them and that force sensitives are exiled due to something happening in the past which is why we know so little of them. It could lead into S2 of The Mandolorian where baby Yoda is not welcomed back by his species and continues to go on adventures with the Mando?
Q/A: What happened to the traitor clone Slick from the Clone Wars after he was caught?
On the "Did Han know?" thing, you guess forgot a moment I think is very important: Han talking to Maz.

Seeing as how not even Abrams knew Rey was a Palpatine at the time, I'd say no
You beat me to it.
@@CW_Smith Both of them in the video beat you to it 😮
@@LazyGyro I'll be honest, I wrote the comment before I saw the vid, convinced that I was the only one to think of this, but no, we're all thinking it.
Yet there's been reports going back to 2014 that Abrams wanted Rey to be a Palpatine (and that basically everyone else disagreed at the time).
@@ignisinfernal1843 Really? I'm quite surprised I never heard of these reports.
I truly believe J.J. had the idea of Rey being related to Sidious while working on TFA. Of course he didn’t planned to make it happen as such back then since Trevorrow was director of IX in that moment. But back in early 2016, media asked J.J. if he knew something about Rey’s parentage. His response was “I know some stuff”. I can safely guess he had this idea of Sidious around, probably left it in writing for directors of VIII and IX as reference whether they would develop the idea or not. When he was offered the opportunity to direct IX he might’ve seen the chance to take his own idea and develop it himself. So this is all wild guesses, I know. But I believe there’s plenty of room for believing J.J. had Sidious in mind as ancestor of Rey from the very beginning.
It’s my biggest issue... you needed one creative mind to manage the arc from 7-9.....
Q/A: What planets from Star Wars books that we don’t have any pictures of or visual material on would you pick to actually get pictures/illustrations of?
Q/A: More often than not, when someone is mind tricked, they parrot back what was said to them. Do you think when Yoda mind tricks someone, they parrot it back in his backwards speak?
The major hint that Han knew who Rey was is when Maz asks him, "who's the girl?", which is immediately followed by a cut. When I first saw the film, I assumed that he knew who she was because of his knowing looks and oddly uncomfortable behaviour. But it works equally well if he didn't know to be honest, as him knowing or not doesn't really end up mattering.
The bigger question is when Leia and Luke found out, because I find that difficult to track. It was *clearly* decided in the final film, but so was Luke and Leia being siblings in RoTJ, so it always seems lazy to just say that! JJ co-wrote both TFA and TROS so it seems plausible that this was his plan from the start.
I feel like Leia knew from the moment she saw her walking from the falcon... And that is 80% of the reason why she went to hug her. A lost and confused girl who's force has awakened but who is yet innocent and unknowing enough to be good... and she sees Palpatine's spirit right through as well. She is smart enough to know that shunning and individual because of their lineage and darkness isn't the right way to go about it so she gives her a tight embrace instead.
So she goes to embrace her, right away, to offer her unconditional care and love so that this being with a dark past wouldn't go dark. She also is compensating for the loss she endured, she knew she failed Kylo after she felt him kill his father. She didn't offer him the home he needed, she wasn't there for him. So she embraces Rey, as to state that she won't make the same mistake again.
Luke got a scent with the scene where he says _you went straight to the dark_ . But he figures it out when he reconnects with Leia, remembers the light and hope she brings and goes to help the galaxy fully believing in Rey even with her past. _I will not be The Last Jedi._
@@kungolaf4499 None of the characters knew, because Darth Sidious is all of the ghosts on IX. Both Jedi and Sith ghosts. So, we never hear Luke / Leia perspectives, we only get a Darth Sidious lies.
Wookieepedia says the TIE Phantom is canon again, but their source is a FFG Source book, which are pretty dubious if they're canon or not.
Short answer: No. Because the trilogy was planned out worse than a drunken Taco Bell run at 2 AM.
no one knew until that fanfic script was filmed
Q&A: Did echo know about fives’ death
We'll possibly find out in Bad Batch
I can’t take these theories seriously bc any evidence is just coincidental since the writers had no idea either.
I'm not sure that really matters. Fan theories are never based on trying to uncover some actual hidden truth that the author of a work put in.
They're about treating the work more seriously than intented to forge new connections and ideas.
I feel like a lot of fans these days put way too much stock into authorial intent.
In answer to the meaning of the darth title, according to the book bane path of destruction the darth title was a used as a challange to other dark Lords. A statement of power and dominion.
3:04 Given how unlikely it is for us getting Legends content alongside Canon, a series that's basically the equivalent of Dark Side endings of every Star Wars game is even more unlikely.
13:26 Well he did the exact same thing in Legends to slow down the Jedi trying to find out his/Sidious' identity.
It was more plausible before the Disney buyout since we already had the Infinities series with Episodes 4, 5 and 6. With the “new” canon, I think Disney will want to keep the lore consistent and not want to confuse people with What Ifs.
As big as the MCU is money wise, it is still tiny lore wise when compared to the amount of media Star Wars already encompasses: comics, TV, film, video games, books, all with different original characters like Doctor Aphra, Sabine Wren, Kal Cestus, Alphabet Squadron.
Q&A: Was (Darth) Maul’s name given to him by Sidious or was it his birth name? If it was his Sith name, why did he keep it after he left the Sith and hated Palpatine?
Also thanks for answering my Bendu question! :)
It's the only name we've ever gotten for him. In Rebels when he meets Erza he even says it "Formerly Darth"
I think the names are provided through the Force and given by the master, rather than made up by the master at the time.
All of the Darth names have had some form of meaning behind them as to the character's intention or intended outcome like annihilation (Nihilus), malicious (Maul), tyranny (Tyranus), entrapment/beguile ((in)Sidious), etc.
Not sure exactly how Vader is determined in that line of thinking... anyone???
@@darrenoleary5952 I heard Vader is derived from the word "father" in german and darth is derived from the word "dark" can't remember if that was from German as well? So Darth Vader translates as Dark Father. Sorry, I don't remember where I read that?
@@darthoblivion2615 yeah, I've read that too, but there are details online that sort of discredit that thought as the German pronunciation of 'Vader' is different.
If it were true to have it translate as 'Dark Father', would it then perhaps suggest that Palps/Sidious knew that Padme was pregnant with Anakin's child.
In Rebels Maul says to Ezra something like: "I once had a real name. So long ago I don't remember." Then he says he is now called Maul. So I would say Maul is his Sith name, but he doesn't know what his given name is so he just goes by Maul and dropped the Darth title.
I feel as if Han's reaction to Rey was the way it was because he probably saw lots of Luke and Qi'Ra in Rey
I knew she was a Palpatine since the midnight premiere of The Force Awakens. To me it was obviously always part of the plan, her fighting style was the biggest giveaway.
Q&A: Since we know he survived until at least Endor, how do you imagine a conversation between Rex and Luke going?
In my head, I just assumed Leia knew from old Rebellion intelligence that Palpatine had a son and that son had a daughter. At least that's the easiest route I can see to explain it.
You do know that they are clones not biological sons of Palps. Rey is the biological daughter of one of the clones
Mofasser Arafat Yes, obviously that's what I meant by "son". As far as the writing of Rey's origin is concerned they wrote the clone as a "son" to justify calling Rey Palpatine's granddaughter. Let's not argue semantics when the wording makes no difference.
@@ianscultgaming3601 You misunderstood me. I meant that if they were indeed sons of Palps then it makes no sense for Leia to know about them and do nothing as they ARE potential threats. Remember, she IS a Jedi. This just shows how much stuff they made up as they went along. I completely agree that they wrote that clone part in to retcon TLJ, as it's JJ's "mystery box". Such a shitshow.
Mofasser Arafat If the clone was a nonthreat I don't think Leia would have gone after him. It's not in her character to go after someone whose not taking apart in the war just because of their lineage. Jedi or not, she wouldn't harm someone whose not actively or planning to harm others even preemptively. I could totally see her holding onto the info to monitor the clone and even keeping the data from other rebellion leaders who would attack an innocent man based off his lineage. In a way that makes her more of a Jedi than almost every Jedi we've seen.
@@ianscultgaming3601 ok, but wouldn't Luke have found out? I especially can't tell what Sequel Luke would've done cuz he was a completely different character here. Like, in the OT, He found tried to redeem Vader from the Dark Side, but here he tries to kill Ren before he had even turned!!! But I guess maybe you're right about the Leia thing.
Maz Kanata seems like she knew and with what we know it makes sense
"I have seen those eyes before"-Maz
She told Rey her parents weren't coming back. Maybe the "drinking money" was spent at Maz's Castle
I think Luke expected it after he trained Rey. He saw her power and her draw to the dark. And the audience gets to see the parallel between Luke throwing a lightsaber away years ago because Palpatine wanted him to be a Sith and again years later when Rey wanted him to be a Jedi. Both times, he denies a Palpatine what they want, and throws away his weapon. It turned out to be the biggest hint before Ep. 9.
I'm betting Han was totally clueless about Rey, he just wanted another co-pilot and help for Chewie and himself. I loved the whole "I don't think anybody knew, not even JJ Abrams" 😂
Great point! Totally agree. JJ didn’t even know she was a Palpatine at that time. When I first saw Awakens, I thought Han knew who she was (but I was thinking it was because she was his niece at the time). How wrong I was.
Everyone’s so quick to blame Rian Johnson for the new trilogy’s problems even though JJ set up all those “mystery boxes” with no plan on what’s behind them
Great job guys!
Love your show!
Keep up the good work!
Unrelated: Mollie's hair is on point.
The writers and director didn’t even know until the last film 😂
josue Martinez ???
I always thought the looks Han gave Rey were like "Teenagers from desert planets. Not again..."
Always enjoy these Q&A videos! Keep up the good work, guys.
I'm pretty sure Luke read the script and that's how he knew Rey was a Palpasheev
I think if Han knew about Rey, he honestly didn't care, he already decided that he's adopting her. Her and Finn.
Great episode as usual! So many interesting questions this week. Stay safe and have a great week ahead.
QA: why do the sith follow the rule of 2? It doesn't seem very selfish planning ahead for 1000 years for someone else to have power.
Read the Darth Bane Trilogy....
That's not how the Sith think. Their greatest goal is immortality, so first off they're not even concerned about who's in power 1000 years down the line, because they want to be that being, live that long and more. Secondly, they may be selfish but they're still smart, and religious. Low numbers ensures their strength gradually increases with no competition, and they can remain in hiding from the Jedi. Sith are forced to have an apprentice for their religion to carry on. If the last existing Sith died, their religion dies with them. It's not as simple as me selfish, me no teach!
At first they didn't follow the rule of 2.
When the sith were only bringing eachother down for power, a sith named Kaan created the Brotherhood of Darkness. Basically it was a power grabbing "jedi order" using the dark arts. However, what would happen, is that the weak would gang up on the strong, causing the weak to survive. This was ofcourse weakening the sith order. Darth Bane saw this happening, after obtaining knowledge from a holocron he realises something: There should only be 2 sith. One with all the power and one who craves it. If the Apprentice is able to take the mantle from the Master, it means that the Apprentice has grown stronger than the Master (by killing the master). By doing this over and over, the sith grow stronger and stronger. I think almost every sith master (aside Darth Bane) think they are the Sith'ari. The Sith'ari is basically the one who will wipe the jedi out according to Sith legend. So whilst the Sith are plotting to take down the Jedi (which are automatically linked to the Republic), I don't think they are doing it for further generations, but actually for themselves (because they think they can do it in their lifetime).
Question from someone who just realized that there are 2 ppl now in Star Wars Explained.

Q&A: With Squadrons coming up, I was curious if the “snow speeder” was specifically a cold weather ship or could it have been utilized in the rebel alliance elsewhere?
Hello there! This is Good stuff thank you, Happy Saturday!
Q&A: Do you think Epidode 10 (totally brand new Saga that is not part of the Skywalker Saga) will focus on a brand new Republic since the New Republic and Hosian Prime were destroyed by the First Order?
Palpatine has a Rolodex of Sith names he just cycles through XD
Q&A: Are the locations shown in video games, like in Battlefront II, canon? I think DICE did a great job at adapting locations from the movies, but Jabbas Palace, for example, feels too small on the inside in my opinion.
If the K-wing was to return I would hope they overhaul it's visual design, cause it ain't the prettiest ship. And to build off that I would have rather than a bomber it plays the role of gunship.
I think Han saw a couple in a hurry carrying a girl with three buns and thought: "Holy shit, I've seen her before."
Q&A: It is made clear in comics and films that vader and palpatine didn't know that he had twins so wouldn't It have made more sense to keep luke and leia together as vaders isn't gna go looking for twins.
I know this is intended for Star Wars Explained, but I just wanted to give my two cents. Since no one knew Anakin was having twins, if they were separated and one was found, Vader and Palpatine wouldn't expect there to be another child out there. If they were together and were found, Vader might've sensed that they were both his children and that Padme had twins.
A 'What If?' star wars comic series or even a show would be so good, they should bring back 'infinites' and do the prequels and sequels
T
A You Tube channel called What if does lots of what ifs and are very good ones too. One playlist is all about Ahsoka Tano and are his best What if to date.
Here's my list of ultimate what if's??
1. What if Qui Gon Jinn defeated Maul at Naboo. Would the Jedi Council have allowed Obi Wan to teach Anakin then? ( I always considered them allowing Anakin to be trained as complying to Qui Gon's last wishes). This raises an interesting prospect. Would Anakin have turned to the dark side then? *Would Qui Gon have joined the Separatists as claimed by Dooku in AOTC* ( Qui Gon was Dooku's apprentice)
2. What if Ahsoka never left the Jedi Order. We can all agree that she represented his good and caring side, probably more than Padme. Would he have joined the Dark Side if she was alongside him. Sidious would know that she was a theat and try to remove her so, that would be an interesting dynamic.
3. What if Luke listened to Yoda and Obi Wan and decided that killing Vader was the only way to defeat the Empire, instead of trying to turn him to the Light Side. Would he have been killed? Or, more likely, would he have been turned to the Dark Side as well????
All I want is what would happen if maul actually won against sidious and what would the state of the galaxy be.
@@bruhmieter5688 Yeah, that'd be hella interesting too. Maul has turned out to be one of my favourite characters
I don’t think Han knew, I think Leia figured it out. Given her previous life as a politician and a royal. She probably would have heard talk that Palpatine had a son got married and a child. And suddenly the family disappeared. And when Rey pops up with this dark power , along with the curious fact that she comes from a back water like Jakku yet sounds as if she comes from the aristocracy. She just put 2 and 2 together. And figured this was Palpatine’s grandaughter.
Q/A: I was watching Clone wars today, one of the last episodes of season 2. Plo koon and Ahsoka Tano were heading into a nightclub and a poster in the backround said in Aurabesh "Max Reebo" I instantly recognised the band. Do you think this is an Easter Egg or something else? Do you think the Max Reebo band were playing on Coruscant before Jabba hired them?
Q/A: Hello from Italy!
Do you think The Mandalorian will connect itself heavily into the sequel trilogy (explaining stuff relaed to the First Order, Snoke, Palpatine, trying to give more depth to that era just like The Clone Wars did for the prequels) or it will remain its own story, with only some small connections?
Thank you!
8:26 well isn’t the Darksaber also a plasma blade? Yet its blade kinda has a shape that looks like it was industrially cut/designed
No. Because the writers didn't know until they were half way through making ROS.
The writers knew when Abrams was made the new director and they threw out Trevorrow's script. Abrams initially pushed the idea of Palpatine returning and Rey being his granddaughter back while making TFA, but Lucasfilm shut him down.
Q/A: Are there any species introduced in Clone Wars, Rebels and Resistance you’d be interested in seeing a realistic version of like Jaro Tapal?
“Not even JJ” ZINGGGGG! 🤓🤓🤣🤣🤣🤣
Do you think we will see Rota the Huttlet in a future story and where do you think he has been doing since the clone wars?
Disney themselves didn't know Rey was a Palpatine until they decided to plug it in the last movie
No because they made it up on the third movie.
hahahahaha yea
I wouldn’t be shocked if Palpatine set up his capture to keep Anakin from Maul. It reminds of how in Legends he set up his capture to keep the Jedi from discovering he was Sidious after they got their hands on Gunray’s mech-no chair
These Q/A's are hilarious.
I don’t think Han knew. He was planning to drop her and Finn in a random planet after he got back the Eravana... He didn’t recognize Rey. But Luke and Leia... maybe they felt it in the Force. I bet Luke felt it while training her in The Last Jedi, when he was sort of forced to get back to connecting with the Force. Leia might’ve known for longer in The Force Awakens.
Q&A: since squadrons takes place shortly after the Freemaker Adventures, and we see Hera wearing the same jacket she did in the show, do you think there's a chance of the Freemakers appearing in the game? maybe to customize your ship you have to go to Zander Freemaker, Superstar Pilot Guy?
Thanks for pronouncing my name correctly, Molly!
Q&A: Do you think The Bad Batch series could incorporate some of the planned, unfinished arcs intended for The Clone Wars, like some of the Cad Bane/Boba Fett/Bounty Hunter arc, where they do a job on Tatooine and end up dueling? They'd have to change some things to set it after Order 66, but it was such promising and important arc for Boba and Bane that I would love to see it finally completed.
Considering JJ Abrams himself likely didn't even know at the time, no Han absolutely had no idea.
Q&a: which lightsaber color cal have in cannon (the one from the end)

Disney needs to announces a new book called palpatines diary
Q/A Counterpoint on the Sith being quiet for so long: Would be weird that a bunch of Dark Siders are so selfless and disciplined that they would not want to have power for themselves but would work for a next generation. Doesnt vibe with Ambition, Passion, etc. Question being: would it not make more sense that there were more attempts at a Sith take-over but that they failed? It would also make a lot more sense for Jedi to be still running around with Lightsabers in a galaxy of blasters-only.
I’m hazarding a guess Luke was able to “see” who Rey was in the rush of emotion when he walked in on her and Ben. He couldn’t have seen it during “Lesson 1” ; he was much too shocked she leaned into the Dark Side. The one time he name-drops Darth Sidious he doesn’t seem to grimace or hesitate either, so I doubt he knew then.
As for Leia... her knowing/seeing right away in 7 would have been intense enough to be why she ignored Chewie. It’s possible she found enough clues (maybe from talking to Lando) to know some Palpatine granddaughter was out there and possibly on Jakku, Ochi’s last known location.

Good clip ♥♥♥! As a current TH-camr, I am always looking for creative ideas! Excellent Job!
I always loved Tenel Ka's lightsaber with the rancor tooth.
Yeah Han got the sense that Rey has been stuck on her planet plus she has mechanical skills, so thats why he decided to offer her a job as a crew member.
I think JJ also probably thought out a variety of possibilities for Reys backstory.
Because Ian Mcdiarmid is an older actor, him being cast to return for the final movie would not have been possible.
Han was force sensitive. It's practically confirmed. Maybe he didn't KNOW Rey was a Palpatine specifically, but he could tell something was up with her at the very least.
Q/A: When Kylo goes to fight Luke on Crait, why didn't Kylo have sith eyes when he encounters him face-to-face or after the fight when he realizes when it was a force projection? He had sith/dark side eyes for a moment when he bleeds his kyber crystal in the Rise of Kylo Ren comics.

As far as other Sith trying to overthrow the Republic, it's important to remember that it takes way more than one chancellorship to take down a whole Republic. The Sith would have built and strengthened a whole massive system of corruption and darkness and passed along the names of corrupted people and worlds apprentice by apprentice. Then finally when they felt they were ready, a lone Sith lord could attempt to infiltrate the highest levels of power and throw the switch.
Beyond that, I would also assume that some Sith lords were relatively non-interventionist and more interested in pursuing the mysteries of the Force and their own philosophy rather than taking an active role in the age-old 'let's destroy the Republic' wishful scenario.
