      @@Infamous1892 This show is showing us how the arrogance of the Jedi will grow to a point 100 years later the Sith just walk into teh Senate and take over. The Jedi do NOT want to believe the Sith are back. So for example they are NOT letting the high council know what's going on. They want to end what's happened before the high coucil get involved. This will be to their downfall. I love Star Wars lore and this is giving fans like me what I want about how the Jedi could let Sith come back into power. They are arrogant and don't want to know the truth.

      It's okay to not like the show. If you don't see giant issues with Disney's treatment of SW, then cool. Enjoy it as you will. But if folks point out real, logical problems with the story and canon and cite references backing their argument, it has a place in a conversation. But then the White Knights and Cope Kings come in and try to shame every person for having original thoughts and opinions on a show that don't match their own. Making their projections of blaming others for doing it even more obvious.
      If you love the new Star Wars, then I think your judgement is bad. But I'm happy for you as well because I'm not here to take your enjoyment away from you. What Disney is doing right now in their live action SW offerings isn't entertaining for me anymore. It's Star Wars reimagined as Twilight, with a bunch of LGBT stuff thrown into the story with no real point other than to shock and awe and force people into understanding that this is Star Wars now. It's not about a magical prophecy telling a Heroes' journey to redeem the sins of his father. It's a bunch of bitter pessimists blaming everything on men. It's about tearing down the idea that there can be good, positive things in the world to work towards and replacing it with the mentality of that life is always a bitter struggle of betrayal and getting them before they get you. And that it's always someone else's fault, never your own. I personally don't like that ideal or endgame for Star Wars. YMMV.

      It is strange then that the Jedi will not even consider this is a Sith as it would violate Canon.
      This person must have received training in the power that far surpasses normal jedis which I believe only the sith can provide.
      Even if it turns out that this is a Jedi behind the mask, this does not mean that it cannot be a Jedi who has become a Sith and then hid among the Jedi for many years.

There is definitely culture war stuff imbedded in some of the dialogue and characters within the show that doesn’t add to anything other than wider political narratives that don’t really work the way the showrunners have chosen to portray in Star Wars. However, the culture war stuff is a lot smaller than the actual issues with plot, writing, dialogue, character motivations and lore breaking material within the show

    @zaurijunior 6 месяцев назад +39

    The ending of this video blew me away because I think Allen figured it out. IT IS QIMIR. But isn’t really. He is a puppet, hence why he is afraid of "the master". The master possesses him and others, the master "collects" people. Torbin was easily subjugated on episode 3, we know from the trailers that the same happened with Kelnacca. We also know that for some reason, both Kelnacca and Torbin are the most remorseful by what happened on the planet Brendok. What if ‘possessing’ Qimir, Torbin, Kelnacca is a way of perpetually binding these people to their master? Whatever this dark force user is doing - and I’m betting that’s Mother Koril - is scheming, it involves using people to do their dirty work. Koril doesn’t simply takes over Mae or Osha because they are their daughters, she wants them to succumb to the dark side just like her. I cannot fucking wait for next week.

    I had a thought watching Episode 4, when Qimir brought up how Mae has tried to snatch sabers in mid-battle and she said the whole "Kill a Jedi without a weapon" was more of a riddle than anything.
    I'm wondering if instead of meaning "Kill a Jedi while Mae is unarmed" it means "Kill a Jedi who is unarmed (a Jedi without a weapon)"?
    Though it could also be a whole metaphor, meaning that she will destroy a Jedi (I'm betting Master Sol) by revealing the truth about what happened in Brandok (perhaps something that even Sol doesn't know yet) or forcing him to confront some other revelation that would cause him to leave the Order, thus "killing a Jedi without a weapon".
    They seem to be leading to something along one of those lines, since they keep bringing that line up and continue building toward SOMETHING happening on Brandok beyond just what we've seen so far.

      @LeeWilliams-ve8rj 6 месяцев назад +2

      I agree. Whatever happened on Brandok hasn’t been fully explained to us or I believe the Jedi Order as a whole. I think Sol and the others covered something up. Those witches didn’t die in a fire, they clearly hadn’t even been burned yet. It wouldn’t surprise me if one of the mothers survived and is the who Mae calls the master. She knows of the dark side but isn’t a Sith. Because whoever “Master” is, has a clear grudge against the Jedi but more specifically the Jedi who came to their coven that night.
      I think “kill a Jedi unarmed” means kill a Jedi’s will to be a Jedi or connection to the light. I agree I think the Master wants the truth of Brandok exposed which will “kill” Master Sol’s will.
      My theory is the Jedi could have saved some the witches and elected to only save the Mae and Osha and left the witches to die. And I suspect not all of them died.

In the end, Anakin had mastered his own take on form 5 djem-so combined with form 4 ataru. The final move he uses when he loses in ROTS is ataru, in fact.
