They're good, light side Force users who happen to shirk some of the dogma of the Jedi Order. Not agreeing with the Jedi doesn't necessarily push one closer to the dark. The Jedi are wrong so often that maybe QG and Ahsoka are right!"
This is all kinds of stupid. The idea of things being all black and white is boring and so done, the force should be beyond good and evil. You can't have balance if only light rules and you can't be a servant of the force by simply embracing 50% of it. They are making things childishly simple and turning the force boring. If they ever do a Revan story they will ruin him because one of the coolest things about him was him being 100% grey. I was excited about Revan possibly getting a story but now I see that they could never capture his character or do him any justice. They can't handle the idea of there being shades of grey in a story.
@@brucejedilee5290 I absolutely agree with what you said. They are making star wars incredibly dull and boring by making the force black and white. This also means that the light side will predictably full of purely selfless beings and the dark side full of selfish beings. The light side will also win just because its the "good side". Great storytelling, like Game of Thrones, has shades of grey in it and isn't simply black and white.
@@brucejedilee5290 "Apathy is death." Remaining neutral and unaffiliated is just not an option. And youll note that its not just good versus bad... youre making it childish and simple.

Going around as a kid playing the good guy Jedi and using dark side force powers, you don’t really realize how well developed each side’s abilities can be when specialized into. The Jedi make unstoppable defensive tanks with their light side powers in use, particularly in Knights of the Old Republic. Using Kreia as your “Oh, this is the dark side powers character.” Lets you have a powerful Sith consular in your playthrough. Character archetypes are fun to play with and use. And then I hear Kreia saying “True strength is recognizing another’s strength is not your own.” Ironic that she was benefiting and counterpoint to that exact thing by teaching the exile to feel the force again, and allowing herself to feel what it means to be a Jedi again through the exile’s use of light side force powers.

I still come back to watch this some times because I just love the editing in it. The transitions during some of the lightsaber fights are amazing because you take from all different mediums, it'll go from tv show to movie to games seamlessly and shows you're such a huge fan to know what these different fights look like and how they can be blended together.
Such wisdom can be derived from what we pass off as mere entertainment. The essence of all that is said from those acting wise or cunning in games and films comes from the real world and therefore can be applied in the real world.
Evolution is necessary. The Sith. They started as Jedi and as time went on they became Sith. From the Sith, the Sith Empire was born. From the fall of the Sith Empire, the Rule of Two. From the Rule of Two, the Galactic Empire was formed. And now... from the ashes of the Galactic Empire, the First Order. There will never be an end. The Jedi do not change... that is why they fail. Their weakness was their undoing. Even in his final days, Yoda (one of the wisest Jedi in my opinion) failed to see that the Jedi needed to change, and encouraged Luke to continue training Jedi the same way they always had. Eventually I hope to see that the Sith will evolve so far as to accept both sides of the force much like the “Grey Jedi”. The Jedi will die unless they finally embrace change. Valkorion and Revan were perfect examples of the potential and possibility of embracing change.
Change is not always good however, I feel like if Sith will change just because they feel like it even if this change is negative. I suppose that's their downside. One is change without(or with bad) reason, the other is lack of change when necessary.
I have to disagree, in the now LEGENDS universe Luke developed a new training method that allowed for his students to feel love and have families and so on, from what i've seen Disney started to use a lot of elements from the Legends universe...we shall see what the future brings regarding this
1:18 "You have the heart of a Sith, you would have power such as the galaxy has never seen." I love how that line ends with a shot of Rey. I like to think that Rey is somehow a conduit for the dark side, which would explain her efficiency at using the force. It would be an interesting concept if like Palpatine was influencing her force sensitivity all along. That phrase made me realize how dark Rey's actions have mostly been, shes not a pure jedi like Luke. But it seems like she can't be a pure jedi because she has the "heart of a sith". Makes you think.
I am pretty convinced that once you get past all the fluff and get right down to it, the Jedi teach cold apathy and denial of self. While the Sith teach violent ambitious nihilism and the worship of self. Both create unrealized misery and self destruction. It's telling that my favorite Sith and Jedi are or would be considered failures/heretics/outcasts of the two.
This literally gives me chills and brings me tear. Disney needs to use this Trailer to advocate for the next 20 years of Star Wars! This is simply fantastic.
Valkorion in my mind the true villain of Star Wars. Palps was a baby by comparison. The writers just should've written the story better but all the pieces are there. Please someone do a good fanfic series on him.
So in a comic back in the '80s there was a mention of an all-powerful evil being that the celestials ran from not sure if you familiar with the celestials not sure if you watched clone wars but they're pretty much the people that created the force if I remember correctly And his name is the father of shadows as far as I can find that guy is the ultimate Star wars bad guy we're talking lovecraftian level bad guy only mentioned once never again and I doubt they're ever going to do anything with him because like I said comic in the '80s but still that would be the ultimate bad guy and he makes both emperors look like babies playing with blocks.
I sometimes wish we could side with the Star Cabal in SWTOR when they are discovered, i always felt like they were right to try to put an end to both Jedi and Sith's petty wars. (from a non-force user's point of view, that is).
It's been awhile since I've commented on your videos, but I just wanted to say that I love this one as well. It felt like a fantastic mix between each time period, and styles of narratives (Kreia's quotes seem to be timeless at this rate).
'The sith feed on palpable dread. Fear is a lie, passion a lie. Fear gives temporary power and passion is easily manipulated. Real strength in the force comes when one is no longer afraid. One can purge fear when one stops grasping...after power...after things...after life itself, and allow the force to guide him. There is only the force. Everything there is: like and death alike...is wrapped up in the force." Kal'eth Ur. (SWTOR)
Fear and Courage , Life and Death Light and Dark. There is balance in all things , one cannot exist without the other and both are needed for true understanding. That we all exist in the moment of time , to understand our place without giving into only one ideal.
Most epic forceusers have learn both sides of the Force. Vitiate, Revan, Anakin, Dooku, Starkiller, Marr, Kreia. It make sense. Balance is only right choice. (Sorry for my English)
Anakin forgot lightside when he transformed into vader same with dooku and Marr only learned to use both after his death when he was force ghost. Also as previous comment said Mace Windu and some other jedi/sith learned to balance force
I want to say Jaw dropping as always, but this it to a whole new level. You've been doing these kinds of videos for years, and they've just gotten better and better. The commitment you give to even small things like which 0.5 second clip to apply there, is remarkable. The masterful ideas and passion you apply to your videos are, simply put, jaw dropping! I truly shows that you are a Star Wars fan to a whole new level, and even though I've only been a subscriber for round 1.5 yrs, it's been an honor sir! Thank you, from all of us, for doing these amazing videos. Star Wars is a much better franchise with them at it's helm, and if this it truly your passion, I know that you'll go far in life :)
Your videos get better and better! Thanks for all the great material. I love the meshing of old and new. So much great dialog from the Old Republic that you put into these.
*"The galaxy changes and we must change with it!"* What a perfect nod to the main motif of the Sequel Trilogy! This was definitely one of your best works to date! Keep it up!
Something tells me that TLJ and a new trilogy is about bringing balance to the force by accepting both sides . Or at least my prediction that is . May The Force Serve You well
TBH I not only agree but I very much hope that's what it is about because it's a concept not really used (if at all) in previous movies and I'm a big fan of it. Anyways another amazing video (always have goosebumps watching your videos). Keep up the awesome work :)
I suspect you’re right. It does feel like Rey and Kylo Ren will abandon the Jedi and Sith ways, the Light and the Dark, to embrace something new, in the same vein as Revan. Luke may well have discovered the same thing and may be the one to encourage them to move past the old ways. I’m really looking forward to this film. ^_^
Yeah, maybe about bringing balance between practical effects and CGI. That they do well. Otherwise it carries all clichés about Dark and Light. I hope I'm wrong but I doubt it. We'll see soon enough.
I just discovered your channel today and oh my goodness, it is beyond amazing. Every video of yours I've seen thus far has left me utterly speechless, always a moment when my jaws up in awe. It is evident you have such passion and love for the Star Wars universe, and watching your work reminds me of how great it is. Thank you for this, truly an excellent contribution to the community!
The will of the Force is a flowing current. You can follow it, or fight it, but it is always there. It is not an ally, slave, or transaction. The Force is a paradox. It empowers and imprisons. It destroys and unites. It binds the galaxy together and tears people apart. It has a will... but needs a commander. - Darth Marr
I am literally binge watching your videos because they are so damn good! Great work, great music, great edits, great stories, I am ashamed to not have come across these sooner! 🤯
The only thing that could have made it better would have been if you added Luke and Vader on the Death Star 2 around the 2:50 cutaways. Showing every era and style in the Star Wars franchise. I think this video has been my favorite so far.
You've created some wonderfully fantastic video here, but I believe this is the best one I've seen yet. Kudos my friend! I look forward to seeing more.
Awesome even Luke gave into anger at the end of return of the Jedi and felt its power but calmed himself with remembering the light so he did use both as well great video
If only this was the theme of Kylo Ren's character... Anakin was the one who would "bring balance to the Force". Kylo said his desire was to let the past die: jedi, sith, republic, empire. He could be the one to "finish what he [Anakin] started", understanding, at last, the "power of the force in balance". Through his bond with Rey (ronantic or not, it's irrelevant), they could finally understand that "balance" (which the Jedi loved so much), means BALANCE. Equilibrium. And start a new era for the Galaxy, one Revan would have created had he had the chance. But I don't think that's the direction they'll take his arc in the last movie... A girl can wish though...
Can’t help but think that Musashi (once she reaches Void) from the Fate Series would have interesting conversations with both Jedi and Sith. Not to mention our Musashi and his Book of Five Rings
I've really been enjoying your videos lately. You truly have a way of bringing the deeper meanings and themes expressed in Legends and Canon into an emotionally charged cinamatic trailer. And in my opinion, a well executed trailer is sometimes better than the actual movie. Great use of music and narrative.
Some time a good deed can have very bad consequence. Separate light from dark is a path to failure, because if you stand in light there will always be a shadow... your own. But without light shadows doesn't exist & obcurity as no sense.

The transitions during some of the lightsaber fights are amazing because you take from all different mediums, it'll go from tv show to movie to games seamlessly and shows you're such a huge fan to know what these different fights look like and how they can be blended together.
Me too Bro.
"All things crave what they do not have. Do not pretend you are different, do not forget that."
Such a powerful quote.

My equilibrium never deviates. I feel... Nothing
A perfect reminder to all political candidates so that they remember the promises they've made to those who propelled them up to where they are
Such wisdom can be derived from what we pass off as mere entertainment. The essence of all that is said from those acting wise or cunning in games and films comes from the real world and therefore can be applied in the real world.
these videos are seriously timeless. aged like fine wine :) watching in 2023 :D
"It was so artistically done..."
Evolution is necessary. The Sith. They started as Jedi and as time went on they became Sith. From the Sith, the Sith Empire was born. From the fall of the Sith Empire, the Rule of Two. From the Rule of Two, the Galactic Empire was formed. And now... from the ashes of the Galactic Empire, the First Order. There will never be an end. The Jedi do not change... that is why they fail. Their weakness was their undoing. Even in his final days, Yoda (one of the wisest Jedi in my opinion) failed to see that the Jedi needed to change, and encouraged Luke to continue training Jedi the same way they always had. Eventually I hope to see that the Sith will evolve so far as to accept both sides of the force much like the “Grey Jedi”. The Jedi will die unless they finally embrace change. Valkorion and Revan were perfect examples of the potential and possibility of embracing change.
Change is not always good however, I feel like if Sith will change just because they feel like it even if this change is negative. I suppose that's their downside. One is change without(or with bad) reason, the other is lack of change when necessary.
Many Sith will never change. Just as the Jedi fear and hate the Dark, the Sith fear and hate the Light.
I have to disagree, in the now LEGENDS universe Luke developed a new training method that allowed for his students to feel love and have families and so on, from what i've seen Disney started to use a lot of elements from the Legends universe...we shall see what the future brings regarding this
You forgot Darth Jadus and I.
Your work is so good!
Revan the force and balance he was the chosen one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😁🥰❤️😜🌑
All hail Lord Revan!!!
1:18 "You have the heart of a Sith, you would have power such as the galaxy has never seen." I love how that line ends with a shot of Rey. I like to think that Rey is somehow a conduit for the dark side, which would explain her efficiency at using the force. It would be an interesting concept if like Palpatine was influencing her force sensitivity all along. That phrase made me realize how dark Rey's actions have mostly been, shes not a pure jedi like Luke. But it seems like she can't be a pure jedi because she has the "heart of a sith". Makes you think.
Brilliant as always. Can't wait till the next one
I am pretty convinced that once you get past all the fluff and get right down to it, the Jedi teach cold apathy and denial of self. While the Sith teach violent ambitious nihilism and the worship of self. Both create unrealized misery and self destruction. It's telling that my favorite Sith and Jedi are or would be considered failures/heretics/outcasts of the two.
This literally gives me chills and brings me tear. Disney needs to use this Trailer to advocate for the next 20 years of Star Wars! This is simply fantastic.
"I understand why your council controls you what I'll never comprehend is why you let them".
I am impressed by your creativity. You put your soul into these videos and it shows.
Top quality masterpiece. You should be hired to structure movie trailers into their optimum capability.
Valkorion in my mind the true villain of Star Wars. Palps was a baby by comparison. The writers just should've written the story better but all the pieces are there. Please someone do a good fanfic series on him.
Someone could do something where Palpatine is either a reincarnation or direct descendent of Valkorian.
So in a comic back in the '80s there was a mention of an all-powerful evil being that the celestials ran from not sure if you familiar with the celestials not sure if you watched clone wars but they're pretty much the people that created the force if I remember correctly And his name is the father of shadows as far as I can find that guy is the ultimate Star wars bad guy we're talking lovecraftian level bad guy only mentioned once never again and I doubt they're ever going to do anything with him because like I said comic in the '80s but still that would be the ultimate bad guy and he makes both emperors look like babies playing with blocks.
“I understand why your council controls you… What I’ll never comprehend is why you let them.”
I sometimes wish we could side with the Star Cabal in SWTOR when they are discovered, i always felt like they were right to try to put an end to both Jedi and Sith's petty wars.
(from a non-force user's point of view, that is).
@Cian McCabe... That's literally what our world is like right now.
With the force in balance, there is no force.
It's been awhile since I've commented on your videos, but I just wanted to say that I love this one as well. It felt like a fantastic mix between each time period, and styles of narratives (Kreia's quotes seem to be timeless at this rate).
you spoil us with such epic content
'The sith feed on palpable dread. Fear is a lie, passion a lie. Fear gives temporary power and passion is easily manipulated. Real strength in the force comes when one is no longer afraid. One can purge fear when one stops grasping...after power...after things...after life itself, and allow the force to guide him. There is only the force. Everything there is: like and death alike...is wrapped up in the force."
Kal'eth Ur. (SWTOR)
Fear and Courage , Life and Death
Light and Dark.
There is balance in all things , one cannot exist without the other and both are needed for true understanding.
That we all exist in the moment of time , to understand our place without giving into only one ideal.
T.y. for existing brotha
Jesus, that transition from Maul vs Obiwan to Anakin vs Obiwan was so fking smooth
Perfectly balanced. As all things should be.
Editing around 2:20 is pure bliss.
Ayiii the swtor timeline, I see you ✊
Brilliant. Simply brilliant.
Most epic forceusers have learn both sides of the Force. Vitiate, Revan, Anakin, Dooku, Starkiller, Marr, Kreia. It make sense. Balance is only right choice. (Sorry for my English)
A'den Ne'tra Don’t forget Mace Windu.
He is the Chuck Norris of the Jedi.
Anakin forgot lightside when he transformed into vader same with dooku and Marr only learned to use both after his death when he was force ghost.
Also as previous comment said Mace Windu and some other jedi/sith learned to balance force
How about Luke, who is basically god by the end of the Legacy era?
I doubt about Vitiate. He has always been a darksider, as it seems to me.
Yeah, he only talks about being better than both sides because of his self-delusion and also because he wanted to appear good to the Outlander.
One of the best parts of this video is how the lightsaber battles cut to eachother.
I want to say Jaw dropping as always, but this it to a whole new level. You've been doing these kinds of videos for years, and they've just gotten better and better. The commitment you give to even small things like which 0.5 second clip to apply there, is remarkable.
The masterful ideas and passion you apply to your videos are, simply put, jaw dropping! I truly shows that you are a Star Wars fan to a whole new level, and even though I've only been a subscriber for round 1.5 yrs, it's been an honor sir!
Thank you, from all of us, for doing these amazing videos. Star Wars is a much better franchise with them at it's helm, and if this it truly your passion, I know that you'll go far in life :)
I watch this every night before I go to sleep. So perfectly executed it’s beautiful.
Your videos get better and better! Thanks for all the great material. I love the meshing of old and new. So much great dialog from the Old Republic that you put into these.
*"The galaxy changes and we must change with it!"*
What a perfect nod to the main motif of the Sequel Trilogy! This was definitely one of your best works to date! Keep it up!
This is my 100th time watching I just wanna say again keep up the great work
2:27 This transition is just incredible !
That's beautiful :D
Something tells me that TLJ and a new trilogy is about bringing balance to the force by accepting both sides .
Or at least my prediction that is .
May The Force Serve You well
I hope the new trilogy will be in the past long before Anakin. That way we'd see the Jedi Order during an actual grand war. Like during Ancient Siths.
TBH I not only agree but I very much hope that's what it is about because it's a concept not really used (if at all) in previous movies and I'm a big fan of it.
Anyways another amazing video (always have goosebumps watching your videos). Keep up the awesome work :)
I suspect you’re right. It does feel like Rey and Kylo Ren will abandon the Jedi and Sith ways, the Light and the Dark, to embrace something new, in the same vein as Revan. Luke may well have discovered the same thing and may be the one to encourage them to move past the old ways. I’m really looking forward to this film. ^_^
Yeah, maybe about bringing balance between practical effects and CGI. That they do well. Otherwise it carries all clichés about Dark and Light. I hope I'm wrong but I doubt it. We'll see soon enough.
I hope so
My passion is my stength;
through this strength I gain power;
through this power I will claim victory.

Awesone like always, love your mini clips - the editing and the mood is excellent.
I just discovered your channel today and oh my goodness, it is beyond amazing. Every video of yours I've seen thus far has left me utterly speechless, always a moment when my jaws up in awe. It is evident you have such passion and love for the Star Wars universe, and watching your work reminds me of how great it is. Thank you for this, truly an excellent contribution to the community!
This is one of the best! Thank you for your outstanding work. I love listening to this before work everday♡♡♡♡
Most inspiring TH-camr out there
This was magnificent brilliant epic top wonderful great excellent splendid...!! Im speechless XO
Damn, nice video as always. Glad to see you're using SWTOR videos and dialogues as well. :D
The will of the Force is a flowing current. You can follow it, or fight it, but it is always there. It is not an ally, slave, or transaction. The Force is a paradox. It empowers and imprisons. It destroys and unites. It binds the galaxy together and tears people apart. It has a will... but needs a commander.

This is one of the very best videos EVER!
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Still watching this outstanding video!!!
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
I will show you the power of the force in balance !!!
I am literally binge watching your videos because they are so damn good! Great work, great music, great edits, great stories, I am ashamed to not have come across these sooner! 🤯
Another wicked video, love every single one, keep it up!!
The only thing that could have made it better would have been if you added Luke and Vader on the Death Star 2 around the 2:50 cutaways. Showing every era and style in the Star Wars franchise. I think this video has been my favorite so far.
My God that was awesome
This one is the best work you’ve done by far! I love this
Thanks Timothy!
I'm so in love with your videos, they are masterpieces. You are truly talented.
Brilliant! Probably one of your best yet. Keep it up!
Unbelievable how you manage encapsulate all that is Star wars (in my opinion) in a single video.
WOW! Amazing work! Thanks for taking the time to develop & share. Always love watching your vids.
Love your vids, that is all.
LOVE THIS x1000. Your editing skills are *claps* outstanding. i absolutely adore you work! :)
You've created some wonderfully fantastic video here, but I believe this is the best one I've seen yet. Kudos my friend! I look forward to seeing more.
Masterpiece!
Awesome even Luke gave into anger at the end of return of the Jedi and felt its power but calmed himself with remembering the light so he did use both as well great video
Minute 2:25 please someone give to an award to this man!!!
If only this was the theme of Kylo Ren's character... Anakin was the one who would "bring balance to the Force". Kylo said his desire was to let the past die: jedi, sith, republic, empire. He could be the one to "finish what he [Anakin] started", understanding, at last, the "power of the force in balance". Through his bond with Rey (ronantic or not, it's irrelevant), they could finally understand that "balance" (which the Jedi loved so much), means BALANCE. Equilibrium. And start a new era for the Galaxy, one Revan would have created had he had the chance. But I don't think that's the direction they'll take his arc in the last movie... A girl can wish though...
I think this is the most beautifully edited video you've ever done. And I really LOVE your videos.
I LOVE this! So moving.
That 2:27 transition is beautiful! Another job well done
Dude! This must be one of the best videos you have done yet!! Everything was perfectly in sync with the transitions! Beautiful!
The work of a master!
Dudu film, this may be one of the greatest Star Wars videos I've ever seen. This is honestly phenomenal and you should be really proud of your work.
amazing, as ever
Goosebumps
GREAT mash-up! Two thumbs up!
tbh you should be doing movie trailers for the big companies. you get people hyped without spoiling the whole plot
Can’t help but think that Musashi (once she reaches Void) from the Fate Series would have interesting conversations with both Jedi and Sith. Not to mention our Musashi and his Book of Five Rings
it's getting better and better, AWESOMEEEEEE
I've really been enjoying your videos lately. You truly have a way of bringing the deeper meanings and themes expressed in Legends and Canon into an emotionally charged cinamatic trailer. And in my opinion, a well executed trailer is sometimes better than the actual movie. Great use of music and narrative.
Amazing as always. I love any video with sith in it just because they sound so much better and intelligent
Luv this vid.
Totally brings the idea to life. Great vid🖒
In my opinion your best video so far!
Impressive. Most impressive. The Force is strong with your channel.
Some time a good deed can have very bad consequence. Separate light from dark is a path to failure, because if you stand in light there will always be a shadow... your own.
But without light shadows doesn't exist & obcurity as no sense.
Amazing work!
