Revan was one of the most powerful sith lords ever and also a jedi grandmaster. Revan was the real found of the rule of 2 Darth bane continued it from Revans holocron.
I love how the majority fans seem to have pretty much appointed Keanu Reeves to be Darth Revan to the point that if they ever do do a live-action version of the character and he isn’t playing the character, I’m calling bullshit.
You mentioned the hatchet in a tree as a declaration of war, and that removing the hatchet was only done at the end of the conflict, but you left off the part where the hatchet was buried as a sign of peace, which is the origin of the phrase “bury the hatchet”
Exactly. Stuff like him wearing a mask that belonged to a female Mandalorian is awkward, though it still works, and there is a legitimate plot reason for it. However, even a detail like this, Disney would pounce on it, and skew it into some feminism trash. There is nothing wrong with female protagonists, and pre-Disney SW has a lot of good ones. The problem is that Disney allows their higher-ups to inject their own agendas into the stories
Thank you so much for mentioning the Mohawk Native American tribe, and their hatchet symbol for going to war because that tribe lives in my neck of the woods here in America!
Greetings! 😁 I think it's good Revan used the mask against Mandalorians. That,brave,honorable Mandalorian women. Both declaration of war and judgement. He was vengeance and justice is person. I can imagine Keanu as Revan😁 May the Force be with you too. Have a great day :)
It's mask of war! Really like this detailed world building that gave character deep story behind their character with use of object. Did Revan or Mandalorian mask emerged after this? Hope this is and will stay canon, hopefully adapted someone who likes details like this.
Should do a video on another important character that doesn’t really get talked about. The Exile from Kotor 2 and where they fit into everything and how they compare to Revan.
I would love a live-action series on the Mandalorian Wars and we get to see many characters from the first two KOTOR games. But I worry that Disney will ruin it. They should really step back and let creators have more free rein. I would certainly feel more at ease over that and I'm certain many other people would too.
One misconception in this vidoe revan was never truly defeated by the sith emperor It was lord scourge the sith that helped revan at the time had a vision of possible futures Some where Revan won Some where the emperor won It wasn’t a 100% victory either way But he had a vision that would insure the defeat of the emperor 100% But that involved betraying revan stabing meetra in the back and basically ambushing revan It’s quite clear revan could have defeated the emperor but was to weakened and the fact he was cornered into situation where he couldn’t win even if he was capable but ultimately still was capable of defeating darth vitiate if he wasn’t betrayed
Been interesting if he had the mask yet refused to wear it. Than putting it on once more only to remove it having Bastila there at his side. As a way to say 'This is my family and what I will protect."
Just a guess on my part but this all described sounds a bit like a war declaration. Just like the narrated Tomahawk analogy. Seeing that his mask was clearly part of his overall helmet. An for battle means they're both VERY important items of gear meant for protection. Which one like him has no need for... UNLESS hes going to war
The idea that your dark and light halves could become separated was always kinda..... stupid, to me. It would be like ripping the Id and Super-ego apart and having two different people. =\
I believe that a debate about a split personality (his dark side self and his light side self some consider as split personalities) being separated could be made
If (GOD FORBID) Disney decides to make any sequel of the old republic or any cannon events going on. It would be a delight to see Keanu Reeves as Revan. (HOPE DISNEY DOESNT BUTCHER STAR WARS ANY FURTHER)
I guess Revan knows the art of german longsword and he is a niman user(Does he ever do kendo strikes occasionally?) Originally Darth Revan wanted Jedi knights or skilled Jedi fighters with unleashed emotions, to take down the true sith(and what they are going to do) of that time.
Reven is SO awesome, can we please just get GEORGE LUCAS and the guy who made game of thrones to collaborate and make it smh. Tell me how awesome star wars would just be if those two collabed and they made it for us grown kids. Slap that Rated R scene on it and give us keyanu reeves and Longoria as revan and Bastilla in a sticky love scene.
Ok, I love Revan, he’s my favorite character, so this is asked with respect…he didn’t sleep with his mask on, right? I mean, yeah, he swore never to remove it, but he didn’t always SLEEP with it on, did he? How’d he scrub his face, brush his teeth?
So, here's a nuclear take. (Not mine, saw it on Facebook) I saw someone making a defense case for Rey, saying that she didn't deserved to be singled out as a "Mary Sue" because Star Wars has always had characters who fit a similar mold: the whole "Is natural prodigy because plot/destiny", and cited 3 primary examples: Luke, Anakin, and Revan. Now, I can absolutely see an argument for Luke, given that the original trilogy played off of various literary archetypes, with Luke being the Hero's Journey Protag with a Magic Sword. If I wanted to be generous, I could even see and possibly make an argument for Anakin, being the Chosen One and one of the strongest Jedi and Sith ever. However, in what way does Revan fit into the mold of being a "Mary Sue", even CLOSE to how Rey was handled? Unless just by being the main character in an RPG game automatically makes him fit that role? I asked the OP to elaborate on this idea, but they never replied.
Honestly I hope he / mask are not included. I'd rather have some iconic individual/ items keep their mystery and importance. I don't think there is anyone at Lucasfilms I trust to treat Raven with respect 🤔
What about Vaders mask it kept him alive even though it caused him the most pain with all those needles. And helped him breathe even his Breathing apparatus. Also played a Big part plus it looks way more cooler than Revans mask.
It’s possible but not likely To put rank the ancient sith emperor darth vitiate is equal with siduous in power And it’s said Revan could beat him But again it’s not likely It’s one of those situations wher revan has the power and skill but was neft many times throughout his life and never reached his peak and even if he did he at best be equal with them Here is a video thank ranks them ruclips.net/user/clipUgkxcP8m-hFAoVJfkqKL0f9CMIiGE-NGuW1x
I mean come on this is the best way to start a new star wars saga, just make the neo-crusades they relate to jedi and mandalorians so every part of this saga would be relatable while still being secretive by the time of ancient jedi and mandos.
The fact that Revan became an actor and an expert in our universe fire arms is insane to me. Revan was so good in John Wick but they put some random ass name of Keanu Reeves smh idiots don’t play Revan like that before he becomes Darth Revan again
@@franctursic249 I think any number of B-List male actors could do it. But with Keanu specifically, his actual temperament and also strong existing character associations don't really gel with the established character of Revan, who's a military strategist utilitarian charismatic genius. Mind you it's been maybe a decade+ since I played KotOR or read the Revan novel, and I haven't played TOR, so perhaps there's information that changes things. Revan seems to me to be something like between a Palpatine and a Thrawn, while Keanu + an amalgamation of his characters seems to be like between a Kylo Ren and a Din Djarin.
Keanu Reeves is such a bad fancasting for Revan. Revan is a badass warrior not an out of shape 50 year old dude. Too many john wick nerds. You want a good Revan? Toby Stephens. You need a actor who can act, and pull you in just by their voice and presence.
Agreed I like Keanu in John Wick but I don't think he can capture both the charisma / villainy of Raven / Darth Revan. I'd love to see someone who could balance both sides to this character
Live action Revan would be amazing. As long as Disney stayed away from it it could revamp the greatness of Star Wars. No Rian Johnson either. George Lucas taking the reigns for it could be great. Jon favro(can’t remember how to spell it & not going to cheat & google it) & Dave Filoni would kill it making a Revan film together. Dave by himself would be awesome. Early series Mandalorian John Faverro, awesome too. They’d make some good deep shit if they made it together & Kathleen Kennedy doesn’t just barge in with her stupidity & kill it like she has with everything. Live action Revan getting written & directed by Faverro & Filoni, acted by Keanu Reeves would be fantastic! I could see that being a Star Wars film getting awards out the ass & best actor/supporting actor & get Margot Robbie trained in martial Arts & fencing so she could be the beautiful & badass Metra so she could get best actress or supporting actress if she isn’t Metra. Anybody know a beautiful woman that knows martial arts & how to fight so she could play Meera? Dave & John with Keanu & a great casting choice for Meera could get things turned around & be the Star Wars movie we’ve been needing & deserve as fans of the franchise. Maybe Alex winter from bill & Ted to be Malec lmao
Revan is the embodiment of "Im ONLY the side of ME", fuck the dark side, fuck the light side. That's why he's the actual GOAT and made Anakin to many mature audiences seem like a child/teenage character
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 in the lore revan is actually said to be above exar and this is confirmed as he is the greatest sith in generation And exar died 2 years before Revan was born It’s even said darth malak needed the star forged to even be at exar’s level of power yet Revan without the star forged beat malak so
![Felix "Unfair" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Oswujxm2Ag0/mqdefault.jpg)
I am really amazed how powerful were Revan, Malak, and Jedi Exile during the Mandalorian Wars.
💯💯
Man meetra wasnt given enough credit in the revan novel with her background catchup story. Revan knew tho. "A path that even i could have dared walk"
Revan was one of the most powerful sith lords ever and also a jedi grandmaster. Revan was the real found of the rule of 2 Darth bane continued it from Revans holocron.
I love how the majority fans seem to have pretty much appointed Keanu Reeves to be Darth Revan to the point that if they ever do do a live-action version of the character and he isn’t playing the character, I’m calling bullshit.
Accurate
I’m still holding on to hope that Keanu Reeves will one day play Revan in live action. It’s probably my biggest Star Wars wish! 🤞🏼🤞🏼
Haha I just made a similar comment
Keanu Reeves is perfect for Revan
Thanks for the new hope/wish
A game of thrones type show with multiple season would be the only way to do it . If not Keanu Reeves,I always saw Christian Bale playing Revan
Yes but not under current Disney but with company directors actually caring about their companies produce.
Man I was on the fence for awhile, but Revan is really my favorite Jedi character ever after this video. This was awesome
Revan one of my most favorite SW characters, I think the mask on him looks badass!😎
You mentioned the hatchet in a tree as a declaration of war, and that removing the hatchet was only done at the end of the conflict, but you left off the part where the hatchet was buried as a sign of peace, which is the origin of the phrase “bury the hatchet”
I wish I could say I was excited about the idea of Revan getting a series, but I don’t want modern disney to go anywhere near Revan
Same
Exactly. Stuff like him wearing a mask that belonged to a female Mandalorian is awkward, though it still works, and there is a legitimate plot reason for it.

Yeah. But if it matched or surpassed the quality of Andor, I’d be all for it
@@ClaytonBigsby93 a good point. I don’t give Andor enough credit.
@@right_hand_power7960 agreed. People watch these movies for escapism, not forced political agendas.
I didn't know there was so much badassery associated with the mask of Revan.
Reven is such an awesome character
Thank you so much for mentioning the Mohawk Native American tribe, and their hatchet symbol for going to war because that tribe lives in my neck of the woods here in America!
I like the Mohawk notation. Good work
Revan embraced the mask as it was a change in him as he knew he would never be the same person he was before wearing it.
By far one of my favorite characters in all Star Wars lore
Greetings! 😁 I think it's good Revan used the mask against Mandalorians. That,brave,honorable Mandalorian women. Both declaration of war and judgement. He was vengeance and justice is person. I can imagine Keanu as Revan😁 May the Force be with you too. Have a great day :)

Revan is one the coolest sith and Jedi of all time
Hey Stupendous
That Ulic Qel Droma Bio and Power Scaling Vid is gonna be great we all can't wait for it in 1 week keep being awesome 🤘
Revan’s mask was arguably one of the most iconic items in the Star Wars franchise
We need Revan in live action asap
Gotta read those books one day. I know most of my knowledge from people like screen rant which is super apreciated but I I never new he fought nihalis
They really should do a movie about Revan. But they would probably mess it up.
Should do a video on another important character that doesn’t really get talked about. The Exile from Kotor 2 and where they fit into everything and how they compare to Revan.
Revan not taking the mask off till the deed was done sounds a god awfully like a Keanu Reeves thing to do lol
I have two chapters left in the Revan novel! I’m gonna finish it today
Anyone else think how in a galaxy far far away that Keanu Reeves was Revan?
Heres just a thought...is it revans mask or revans helmet...mandalorians are known for helmets...i'm just curious how it came to this...mask or helmet
I would love a live-action series on the Mandalorian Wars and we get to see many characters from the first two KOTOR games. But I worry that Disney will ruin it. They should really step back and let creators have more free rein. I would certainly feel more at ease over that and I'm certain many other people would too.
Excellent video!
01:11 - Is that Keanu Reeves playing as Revan?
01:53
One misconception in this vidoe revan was never truly defeated by the sith emperor
It was lord scourge the sith that helped revan at the time had a vision of possible futures
Some where Revan won
Some where the emperor won
It wasn’t a 100% victory either way
But he had a vision that would insure the defeat of the emperor 100%
But that involved betraying revan stabing meetra in the back and basically ambushing revan
It’s quite clear revan could have defeated the emperor but was to weakened and the fact he was cornered into situation where he couldn’t win even if he was capable but ultimately still was capable of defeating darth vitiate if he wasn’t betrayed
Revan is my ironic hero/villain.
Been interesting if he had the mask yet refused to wear it. Than putting it on once more only to remove it having Bastila there at his side. As a way to say 'This is my family and what I will protect."

I love how Keanu is Revan in the head canon
Keanu Reeves as a live action Revan would be so awesome. Cutting down his enemies John Wick style.
The idea that your dark and light halves could become separated was always kinda..... stupid, to me.
It would be like ripping the Id and Super-ego apart and having two different people. =\
Yeah, swtor bastardized both kotor and kotor 2
I believe that a debate about a split personality (his dark side self and his light side self some consider as split personalities) being separated could be made
Revan is by far my favorite. I believe he wore it as a declaration of war and independence. MTFBWY
If (GOD FORBID) Disney decides to make any sequel of the old republic or any cannon events going on. It would be a delight to see Keanu Reeves as Revan.

I am excited to see Raven in live action
1:11 is that keanu Reeves

Originally Darth Revan wanted Jedi knights or skilled Jedi fighters with unleashed emotions, to take down the true sith(and what they are going to do) of that time.
Revan needs a animated or live action series
It needs to be well-written tho
nice theory :3
Revan inside the mask: *sniff sniff*

Please make a video on all materials
Definitely seems like Raven adapted some of the aspects of the Mandalorian culture. It’s almost as if he was more Mandalorian than Jedi or Sith.
Cuz he was the OG gigachad based mofo
💯💯💯💯
Well to be honest if i had a mask as cool as Revan's i wouldn't take it off either. Also does Revan even have a canonical face?
Yes, ironically he does look like keanu a bit
Yes, his face is shown in Star Wars: The Old Republic.
Revan is so cool. Hope to see a live action movie.
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 of course not

Why is it that Revan's art looks like Keanu Reeves?
Perhaps someone had him in mind when they designed the artwork.
What was Revan's name when he was a Jedi?
How does it stay on his face?
Renan’s face had to be really dirty 😂
You left out scrouges involvment with revans escape and loss to vitiate
I love Darth Raven his mask is so cool let's hope we see him in Acolyte series
Personally I think it's unlikely but I hope so too!
Honestly I hope he / mask are not included. I'd rather have some iconic individual/ items keep their mystery and importance. I don't think there is anyone at Lucasfilms I trust to treat Raven with respect 🤔

One Word: Symbolic
Where is "What If Qui-Gon Jinn Trained Anakin PART 3"?
