    Two jokes that could have been mentioned...
    1) Han says he saw through the con, but we all know that's a lie... Chewy just told him "That's Yoda. Met him like 20 years ago."
    2) I guess we know what the Force is now... the force of impact!

      @@alexandersturnn4530 Yes, but if the first warning that the station had been taken over had been a "low power" shot that vaporized Palps (and Vader, and few billion sophonts...Coruscant is crowded) the troops wouldn't have had time to disable the main gun. Instead he opted to destroy the fleet, giving the DS crew time to react.
      It doesn't seem like a great plan unless the ships in orbit were supposed to be the vast bulk of Imperial military might and wrecking them along with the DS would make finishing off the remnants easier for the re-established Republic to come. It's not even clear if he went the route he did to give Luke a chance to turn and rescue Leia and/or Vader, although I guess that must have been part of the goal here or he could have just taken the Palp kill shot without sending Luke & Han down at all, then wrecked as much of the fleet as possible and then self-destructed the DS, which would have accomplished the "cripple the Empire" objective with far less loss of life - still in the billions, but less than ramming the planet.

    • @bluehero-96
      @bluehero-96 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Honestly, it seems like a pretty reasonable sequence of events. With the Empire's heavy hitting force users distracted by Luke on Coruscant, Yoda could move around the Death Star much more freely than Obi-wan did in A New Hope. The only issue is that, logically, Yoda should be a more noticeable Force presence than Luke, but Force cloaking techniques can mitigate that.

      Yoda using his powers malevolently is always treated as a real threat. I think in one book Yoda briefly opened himself up to the dark side just to show Count Dooku - who was trying to convince him to turn - how absolutely catastrophic that would be for everyone. He'd pretty much overwhelm the Sith without breaking a sweat.

    The hilarious thing to me is that this isn't even the only time in Star Wars canon that someone dropped a moon on someone just to kill them in particular.
    In the original EU (before the Disney deletion), there was a big ole alien invasion from beyond the stars... the Yuuzhan Vong. And they got so flipping annoyed by Han, his kids, and Chewie... that they *dropped* *a* *moon* *on* *the* *planet* *they* *were* *on* . Chewie does a heroic sacrifice and saves Han and Han's kids, but Chewie gets the most absolutely *awesome* final sequence before he finally dies - shaking his fists and screaming at the moon crashing down, as if to to challenge the literal world ending catastrophe happening around him.

    It's truly incredible how many people had "massive issues" with Rey, a scrappy scavenger who's fought every day of her adult life, being skilled at close combat and knowledgeable about the inner workings of ships while Luke, a farmboy with some toys, flying the equivalent of an F16 fighter jet after nothing more than "dusting crops" is completely fine.

If it makes everyone feel better he is canceling the Late Night Double Feature that was supposed to come out last mouth, and instead we might get it at a later time and mouth when Halloween is over (since you know that he will do a different movie series for the late night double feature in October).

    How serendipitous this came out at the same day as Andor.
    I read all of Infinities back in the day and it was very interesting how things not only differed, but also incorporated elements of the prequels. I was very disappointed they never did Infinities for thr Prequel Trilogy, and I would certainly love it if Marvel brings back Infinities as a limited series for both the prequels and sequels.
    Hell I would also be open for them to do a limited animated series in the vein of What If where they do alternate Star Wars retellings. So many possibilities given the amount of fateful decisions made in all the movies:
    What if Qui Gon lived? What if Anakin was able to save Shmi in time? What if Padme didnt die of a broken heart? What if Obi Wan lived? What if Luke joined Vader? What if they failed to rescue Han from Jabba? What if Kylo Ren didnt kill Han? What if Finn and Rose recruited the Master Codebreaker? What if Rey didnt heal Kylo Ren?
