I’ve been watching you for 4 years since I was 10 years old now I’m 14 and still love your videos you are the reason I know so much about the Star Wars universe don’t stop making videos unless your burnt out
How high do you have to be to think those bulbs on the bottom of their faces are tusks? Seriously, who saw that makeup on the set of _A New Hope_ and said "what magnificent TUSKS!"
2:58 Hey! Wookiees don't get THAT angry. They have whole cultural inhibitions against wanton anger, at least, on Kashyyyk itself, anyway. If they DO get angry, well, you might have genuinely pissed him/her off somehow, and now, you're at their mercy. Let's hope it isn't a madclaw you have to face. Zabraks, or Devaronians would've been a better comparison.
Given their personality, I think it was inevitable that the Aqualish would be on both sides of the conflict given their love of aggression. And can't blame the Republic for trying to restrict them given how violent they are.
As an arachnophobic I say: kill them with fire! Or, in my case, Base-Delta-Zero the hell out of them😅 in going nowhere near close to a whole world of people who look like spiders 😂
both the aqualish and the harch exemplify everything i hate with "alien races" one is a human with a spider head the other is a spider with a human body type both subscribe to "it has to have humanlike features" humancentric thinking unimaginative
Dang! I was waiting to hear the misunderstood peachy side of these guys like with some other species...the aqualush just really like getting pissed off? That's not even a spider thing i'm not sure where that energies coming from!
I wonder how many examples of spider people that are actually pretty ok there are in fiction? Cause I can't think of many (right this instant: none, and no, Spiderman doesn't count, as there isn't a population of em running around) examples of spider people in fiction that are, generally speaking, pretty alright. Which leads me to speculate that fiction writers must have some pretty decent overlap with people who suffer from arachnophobia, cause where are all the chill friendly spider folk at? Surely, this is something that must be remedied immediately! Cause it would be a funny subversion of a lot of expectations...and I am enough of a jerk to enjoy the prospects of friendly spider people being nope fuel for those with a fear of the funny eight legged mosquito removal service providers, just cause their voice is very prominent and loud in fiction.
8:50 More worlds to cover? Oh yes! How about the many systems of The Hapes Consortium/Cluster? Or, Csilla, and The Chiss Asendency? The Givin of Yag'Dhul? Muuns of Scipio/Muunilist? Or, The Kel Dor of Dorin? So many to choose from!
Species like the Aqualish make me wonder how bad the Sith would be if they were more accepting of alien races joining their ranks. A Force Sensitive Aqualish sounds like a waiting cesspool of Dark Side energy
Can you do a video on how clones were recruited/assigned to their battalions? Like were they handpicked or did they have a choice to join preferred battalions.
🤔 . . . If you haven’t already, Cathar, both the many habitable worlds that existed & kept secret from the rest of galactic society, even a rediscovered world full of Kemonomimi Cathar (basically humans with cat ears & tails being the first things you’ll notice; whiskers, teeth, & eyes each have about a 50/50 chance of showing up, sometimes its due to gender, such as men having whiskers instead of beards, but even diets & lifestyle choices forces these differences), likely due to a war with the ancient Mandalorians &, as a means of survival, bred in a 10:90 ratio of Cathars & Humans, maybe even 1:99, maybe even enslaved humans for breeding purposes. And the name for this rediscovered world: Catia (might want to use clips & screenshots from _Cat Planet Cuties_ )…
@@gehrigstory6674 Star Wars shouldnt focus on DragonBall like levels, it depends on the character and the writer of the story. Yoda and Mace Windu are both very powerful Jedi and of different species, the same goes to Darth Maul and Dooku
Yeah, it’s members like me that make me anti-CIS. Sure, species like the Aqualish and Zygerrians only make up part of the Separatists, but it just tells me that the Republic wasn’t evil, but in a very moral grey area. They weren’t just and humane enough to care for several members, but they were also at times too good and heroic for other members. If there’s one thing every Separatist member at least has in common besides opposition to the Republic, it’s wanting a reboot in galactic politics. Just for very different reasons. And it just goes to show how the Sith formed the CIS only to push the Republic to become an empire. Democracies, tyrants, corporations, and more all pushed together. All the decent Separatists we’ve seen after the war would have to not just contend with Dooku and the Separatist corporations, but the pirates, criminals, and small empires also in the CIS. Think of the aftermath of the Galactic Civil War where some worlds didn’t join the New Republic, but worse.
I always thought they were Walrus people, not Spider people. Also, where are the Aqualish Sith Lords? Are they just deficient in Force Sensitives? It can't be just Humanocentricism.
As far as I know mustafar was basically a seperatist facility/hideout. In the clone wars season 2, we see sidious using it as a home for captured force sensitive babies and in ROTS it’s where the CIS leaders are sent to hide. At least in legends the planet was originally a beautiful place until a Jedi mistakenly pulled it out of orbit while using the force to dispel some sith. So we can infer that since then it’s been uninhabited and so the republic had no use/interest in it. It seems like the seppies tended to choose wastelands for their bases.
The Republic may have been responsible for Ando's secession, but this is one of the times where the ones seceding to join the CIS were in the wrong. The Aqualish that tried to exterminate and force the Free Colonies under their rule were in the wrong to do that, and this is one of the times where the Republic did good, going in and saving the Free Colonies and stopping the bloodshed. Despite the many, and I do mean many, flaws and failures of the Republic, it wasn't completely being hope as there were still many in it doing good, from some Jedi to some Senators, and later some Clones, and we see it on display here where they helped to save the Free Colonies. That's why I still support the Republic, despite its many flaws, while it was corrupted there were still a decent amount of people, some of which had at least a decent amount of influence to actually accomplish some things, trying to do good and actually protect people and their rights. While many in the CIS had legitimate reasons to want to leave the Republic, Ando and their Aqualish were not one of them, much like the Trandoshians, they only joined the CIS because it would allow them to continue their brutal campaigns against those they hate that the Republic actually decently tried to protect from their campaigns, the Free Colonies for the Aqualish and the Wookies for the Trandoshians, which also why the Free Colonies and the Wookies stayed with the Repulibc, despite its flaws it was at least decent at helping and supporting them when they were in trouble, unlike some CIS worlds they didn't help who again unlike Ando and Trandosha had legitimate reasons to leave the Republic because it wasn't helping them like it was some of their other worlds like Kashyyyk and the Free Colonies. Also, would you consider doing a video on the Clone Wars battle that battle in the Free Colonies?
Interesting assessment my friend. It is interesting how in this case it was the core government that completely sided with the CIS rather than the group that representing its people better.
@@kingorange7739 Yes it is. If there's one thing the Clone Wars showed us, it's how complicated war can be. You have CIS members who joined because the Republic was actively hurting them and being cruel, like with New Plympto, but you also had worlds like Ando and Trandosha that joined because the Republic was actually doing the good and right things by stopping or opposing their cruelty so they joined the CIS because it would let them get away with stuff the Republic wouldn't. So there are both heroes and villains on both sides. The people of New Plympto and the Republic forces that aided the Free Colonies and Wookies being the heroes and the Republic forces that cut off New Plympto's trade, the Ando people, and the Trandoshans being the villains.
That's because Kenner named the the action figure of the guy in ANH who lost his arm Walrus Man. They even gave him flat feet that looked like walrus flippers. I've read somewhere that a real walrus provided the sound sample for "Walrus Man's" lines, so maybe Kenner got the name from someone in the production staff.
Laf, “set aside their differences, realize they had more in common than not? Nah - they each found someone to hate more.” Guess I can resemble that statement.
I’d love to hear another deeper one about the Geonosians. I think they get a bad rap as bloodthirsty…but they specifically developed a culture that minimizes bloodshed at the social level, but allows it at the interpersonal level in very controlled settings. Frankly, a lot less bloodthirsty than the Republic’s slave-clone army! They’re incredibly hard working and intelligent as evidenced by their remarkable innovation in the area of sonic weapons and speeder bikes (flitknots rule!). Sure the CIS was ruled by sith and corporations, but so was the republic. There was never any opportunity to get away from sith or corporations. Frankly, I like their chances against the corps better under the CIS than under the republic, and might be they did too, knowing they’d have to pick to actually be liberated.
What the aqualish didn't realize was that the separatists were planning on betraying them. That huge floating stomp machine that Windu fought in Clone Wars? Being tested before being unleashed on the spider people.
You know I always wondered what happened to those that were force sensitive but weren’t trained by either the Jedi or sith were they still able to use force powers?
Wish we had more non clone and non droid conflict for republics vs CIS. Both the 2003 clone wars show and the Filioni one only scratched the surface.
That’s like asking GW to put a little focus on the the Tau or Eldar 🤣
Aqualish: We are not racists, we hate *EVERYONE* equally!
I’ve been watching you for 4 years since I was 10 years old now I’m 14 and still love your videos you are the reason I know so much about the Star Wars universe don’t stop making videos unless your burnt out
The force sensitive aqualish would make great sith lords.
Aqualish needs to chill out and eat Snickers.
Because you get a little racist and omnicidal when you're hungry.

Things I have recently learned. The amount of known force sensitive aqualish can be counted on one hand, and most of them were aquala
The Aqualish are the great bullies of the universe

"He doesn't like you."
