"Too old for this shit, I am." -Yoda, probably.
Hahaha
Bro was around 900 years old during the empire strikes back. Too old for that shit, he was indeed
LMAO
Yoda had to remain unpredictable to an enemy that had spent years successfully predicting his every move. The Emperor's error was revealing himself and his strategy before the entire Jedi Order could be destroyed and Yoda knew this so he capitalized off of it. Revealing himself to the Rebels may have boosted their morale and numbers momentarily but it would also give Palpatine another target to focus on and rally himself around. Yoda wanted Palpatine to live knowing his plan had failed its major goal of destroying the Jedi and so he lived to pass the torch. Yoda was always a teacher and did not change his nature just because the Republic fell. He simply transplanted the Jedi Order from a metropolitan capital Coruscant to the swamp Degoba. In doing so he proved the force was his true guidance; not a vendetta with some would be Sith Lord, or vengeance.
1 jedi isn't a 'Jedi order'. That's like a single person claiming to a run a gang.
@@yamahakid450f Yoda is the order
Thanks for this. Didn’t want to watch the video, but had to know. You should do this more often haha
@@yamahakid450f In this case, the order would be more like the creed, the set of principles and standards, along with all the tricks and knowledge available to the members of said order. Yoda was merely one person to be the teacher, but he also carried with him everything he had seen while being part of the Jedi over those 900 years.
@@yamahakid450f its more like a group of soldiers from the same company getting massacred save for a couple of officers in the group. does one loss make a general's experience null and void? Yoda was himself involved in every level of leadership and teaching in the Jedi Order over his lifetime. And if you look at how Obi - Wan operated he followed Yoda's lead. Camp out avoid conflict until the Empire forgets they exist. This is a theme in A New Hope. Vader is the only one worried about the Jedi believing that their still Order exists. Even he gets it wrong when he says to Luke 'Obi Wan has taught you well' not knowing Yoda has taken over his training. And Luke never gives up Yoda or Obi - Wan because his training is very informal an very one on one. Yoda follows Qui - Gon's vein of teaching Jedi and it pay dividends. Luke is always following his feelings leaving the battlefield for smaller missions. The New Jedi Order taught him that.
That actually makes the line "failed I have" hit a lot harder.
On vacation I went
He was afraid of the Emperor’s boss, Darth Binks.
I think you also have to take into account the reason Yoda choose Dagobah. To help mask any disturbances he may cause the force that would help the empire hunt him down. To have joined the rebellion would have put a huge target on any rebel base he was hiding in.
I think honestly the biggest "hope" they had at the time were people like Dooku and Qui-gonn looking to change the order by analyzing the past.
Sadly one died which well probably caused the other to turn.
Had they been alive and on the jedi counsel, sidious would have failed.
And the jedi would have been reborn in a much less radical way but by gradually changing it which would have hopefully even prevented Anakin's turn to the Darkside.
Your theory seems very plausible. Well done!
dont forget Anakin is the chosen one I'm sure even if it is as you say he would have found a way to turn to the dark side maybe from a sith manipulating him at some point or something
Yoda trained the likes of Dooku, Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan. Yoda in his own way passed the torch of grandmaster to Luke Skywalker who would eventually breathe new life in the Jedi just as Sidiuos did with the Sith.
"who would eventually breathe new life in the Jedi just as Sidiuos did with the Sith."
Bane did that with the Sith, not Sidious.
@@Raffney true but however darth sidiuos was a far more different sith than all others before him for 1000 years the sith changed and adapted and became much much more stronger than ever before which gave new life of the sith yet again by Sidiuos and not to mention he did what the old and ancient sith was unable to do and that was bring the end of the jedi order. in the old republic malgus wanted just that however the sith of that time wanted to remain in the ways of darth bane and not really have a strong focus to eliminate the jedi.
@@GriffenSpadeIsBack
Sidious was the culmination of a old Sith scheme Darth Bane put into motion.
He didn't fall out of order actually but was exactly what Bane estimated would come at the end of the circle. The perfect weapons against the Jedi.
The later stages of said Sith scheme, the fall of the order and the final reveal of the sith themselves were desined largely by Darth Plagueis with the young Sidious as his malleable puppet.
Only at the very end (the phantom menace) did Sidious take over entirely but i wouldn't call the events leading to this situation his doing alone, far from it. Although he adjusted a few things later on and expanded on the details of Plagueis/Banes plan here and there Sidious capitalized on a situation dozens of Sith before him already prepared.
As far as i see it the thing that IS actually Sidious very own brainchild in this sith scheme is the turning of Anakin Skywalker.
The Empire outlawed ketamime so Yoda didn't have the stuff to do the crazy frog leaping anymore
Between the hooligans down by the ocean hitting him in the neck with a hacky sack, and the constant threat of the seaguls, he knew he had to remain hidden.
7:06 That argument seems to be negated by Rebels, where civilians, criminals, and clones come out of the woodwork to help the Jedi. Ezra talks about this with the disembodied voice of Yoda in season one, saying that the reason that he wanted to become a Jedi was that he saw how his master Kanan Jarrus made other people feel - "alive again." Hondo backs this up in season four, saying about Ezra, "for that boy, there is nothing I would not do; he reminds you of a time when there was something you could believe in!" Not to mention the "Obi-Wan Kenobi" show, where there is a pre-Rebellion organization dedicated to smuggling Jedi and giving them alternate identities.
The people don't hate the Jedi; if anything, they seem to miss them. By not aiding the Rebels, Yoda was aiding the Empire.
There's a difference between 'some people', and 'THE people'. If everyone loved the Jedi so much, the Empire wouldn't have developed as it did. There are other videos out there on this topic specifically, e.g., ruclips.net/video/NrfrdzRvIvQ/видео.html. I'm not saying it's a legit reason why Yoda didn't rejoin the fight though.
He was alive for 900 years. I’m sure he decided he took part in enough wars
Nahhhh
I believe Yoda did help the alliance not just by training Luke but also by using the force power of helping soldiers on the battlefield much like he did on Kashyyk. In rogue one they were heavily outnumbered yet prevailed because the force was guiding them. Who’s to say that Yoda didn’t have a hand in this through prayer and meditation. Much like he guided Ezra, Kanan, and Ahsoka spiritually he guided the alliance as a whole just didn’t need nor want credit. He did what Luke did to beat the emperor long before he did. He put down the sword and focused on the light. If only humans could do this in todays world.
rogue one isn;t canon......
it does not line up with the original trilogy, too many holes in the story for it to work.....
alliance shown as bickering then miraculously a week later is in tip top shape knows what it's doing??
sends a squadron out, loses a lot of ships and is miraculously replenished a week later??
a large strike team just goes on a suicide mission where not one person reports back? no enemy intel...the battle of yavin is blind except for the DS plans??
and the idea the alliance needed outside intevention to win is foolish, arrogant and short sighted......
1 the aliance had generals, senators and other reps from the old republic working to restore the old govt
2 the generals knew their stuff and could command an army with both hands tied behind their backs.....
3 the rebels were good at hit and run strikes and when the war started for real at yavin they became stronger fighters very quickly
4 the soldiers we saw on tantive IV were mere royal guards, not battlefield vets but a few were proper soldiers all on that ship save 1 died
5 the soldiers we saw at the yavin base were proper soldiers, the pilots were skilled but untested, Wedge was the most battle tested of the squadron and luke ended up being the other survivor of the battle
6 the alliance didn;t need outside meddling, nor shoulkd that ever have been a concept.....suggesting that a hal;f jedi sith moron kickstarted the alliance is stupid and was uncanonized, rogue one was a nihilistic story, nobody survives, a dock crew is slaughtered and vader ebven see's who was on the ship!!!!
in episode 4 he says "i have traced the rebel spies to her she is my only link" that is not what rogue one showed.....they did not pay attention, it's a flawed ass movie, wake up rewatch OT and ,match it to the new shit, you'll spot this shit, listen to what vader says....he implies the rebels downloaded the data not broke into a goddamn facility and lost every soldier.....
i am so sick of seeing people trumpet up that shit ass movie as the on;y good new one, it's not good, it contradicts the OT and so it's not good at all
I have to mostly agree with you but the most significant reason why Yoda stayed hidden, at least why i believe he did is that as more and more Jedi where wiped out via Order 66/Inquisitors hunting them is that if he would’ve exposed himself then the Empire would’ve put so much into finding him, the emperor/Vader would’ve been able to follow his effects on the force if he would’ve left Degoba because of its natural pull heavily to the dark side that masked Yoda’s light signature within the force. The only way Yoda would’ve been able to help would be by direct physical contact with the rebellion but with them going there the chances of the Empire coming across Yoda would increase every visit. Yoda is able to see fairly far into the future and if he truly learned the errors of his previous ways then he wouldn’t have been so scared of foresight. Which it does appear that he isn’t as scared of it during episode 5/6 compared to 1-3/clone wars show when the majority of the council feared those with foresight and would lock them up if too powerful in the Citadel Prison.
@@darthXreven is obi wan series not cannon? because its disney? Darth Vader meeting and interacting with obi wan goes against the the trilogy especially since vader isn't suppose to know non disney cannon that obi wan is even on Tatooine. Whoever owns the rights to Star Wars decides what is cannon and whats not, not the fans. Lmao
@@darthXreven That movie had the best battle scenes since endor. Who cares if they all died. The rebels were initially cells. No one was very strong. Some were more experienced or better equipped then others. We knew that at some point most of the cells would have to come together.
Also, the original trilogy as much as i love it, is full of holes and illogical stuff. Even with the death star getting blown up, there should have been a fleet of ships with it, and caught them at Yavin. Everybody hates rey because she just magically started using the force and fighting. Which i agree with by the way. But Luke had like 6 weeks of training and could fight Vader? Come on man. And then Endor itself. With the ships that died from the death star, there was not enough of a fleet left to fight off the rest of the imperial fleet even with the death star and executor gone. A couple of interdictors and the rebel fleet is done for. Plus the ewoks taking out a mechanized army? Come on.
Rogue one while not perfect, is hands down the best of the new movies, and had some great action scenes. Plus the Vader scene was worth it just by itself.
@@joelaton1062 but the shit RO added contradicts the source.....
first rule of canon, NEVER CONTRADICT THGE SOURCE!
second rule only the original creator's work is canon unless that make things canon
third rule if the original creator sells or dies or walks away and it's acquired by others they can set new canon but must abide rule 1 first and foremost
there's more but I forget the rest.....Disney does not respect the source and added BS to the lore, they fractured the fanbase even more and now idiots blindly defend bad storytelling to excuse perceived bad origins...you're a fool for suggesting the source was bad the point odf SW was to show a bleak universe that has hope, it was a rag tag army facing a well organized army and the gurilla warfare nature of the rebels won the day....it was mythology in Sci-fi, the mythology of the hero's journey
other IP did it better though like BSG in 78, star trek was always more hopeful and even that got perverted to no end
peole asking if eww is all of Disney not canon, you guessed that one right cus disney does not respect the source
this is why all IP's were so easy for the vandals to destroy cus fandom let em do it, we spent money on their trash knowing that the prequels didn;'t really leave the brand in the best spot....
SW7 sidelined 3p0, R2 and Luke, Leia but Han gets ganked....
if they wanted to kill Han they shoulda let him survive the mortal wound long enough to be taken back to die in Leia's arms....
doctors come out of the room, he lost too much blood, you have mere minutes....
and Han says ben...he can't be saved, at least we're together at the end...and dies
Leia saying the old line, i know
knowing that's what Han woulda said next
they coulda made that shit a tearjerker, instead it was die beeotch and he falls to the abyss genius moviemaking.....no consideration for how fans feel
no i take that back every consideration, they knew that's what would piss us off and they did it, everything now is done to anger fans
you me no fan is respected by Disney, stop giving em your money
metallica - Reload had one of the harder songs they did in 2 albums [Fuel] but it doesn't make the album any better....
there is no defense for the indefensible, like some villains i respect genius but when you vandalize something this badly nothing you do will redeem it even one of the best shot battles since OT......
Episode 3 had one of the best battles too right there in the opening, that deserves way more respect IMO the ground battle on geonosis was good but then again the jango v obi Wan space battle was epic, battle of naboo in space was good....the saber fight between kenoboi, Jin and Maul was awesome then the one between Anakin and Kenobi on Mustafar was even better
even the movies that helped fracture SW had a lot of good to em and I don't believe any malice was ever intended but I also think the criticism was a little over the line but what Disney allowed to happen undermines everything
but keep on arguing
Yoda was always a teacher and in his last days gave his final lessons. The order was gone but the knowledge remained always.
One reason he couldn't join the rebellion is because his presence any where outside of dagobah would have alerted the empire to send all forces to destroy him and the rebellion bases where he would be. That and even if the rebellion could form a training colony on dagobah, the empire would notice the traffic to and from the planet over time.
"Good blow, this is!"
wasnt he hiding his force powers by hiding next to a dark force cave or something like that?
Yoda already took his best shot and failed. He knew the jedi would need to evolve like the sith. Luke was that evolution but clearly yoda still struggled with the necessary change
There's also the fact that even if he wanted to leave Dagobah prior to The Empire Strikes Back, his pod ship had rotted from the environment for so long that it was no longer operational.
Force Retirement
I ALWAYS wondered why he admitted defeat so easily, and just called it quits after dueling palpatine, like that. There was no way he would have been unable to fight, and I didn’t understand how he wasn’t willing to sacrifice himself, or even RISK sacrificing himself* in order to kill palpatine, cause that could have ended it right there, but I’m really glad to finally get some “closure” on the subject, and understand WHY! Now it really makes sense.
*he had no idea yet, that he was needed down the line for any reason, to train another jedi. Actually, It seems like it wouldn’t have even been NECESSARY if he killed palpatine and revived the Jedi order. Even if Anakin was killed or executed or something, Luke and Leia would have been trained from birth, and would POSSIBLY have been more powerful, although the outlook they had, and the people they became, may have been totally necessary for them to become the correct, needed versions of themselves.
If you watch the show the clone war the episode voices, the Wills tell Yoda that he will be needed when he would die hence he needed to learn how to become a force ghost, I always wondered how might’ve Yoda felt when he discovered that Qui-Gon Jin knew about how to become a force ghost but not him? Because Yoda was arrogant in a lot of ways with Qui-Gon-Jin as you could hear him on movies,but Qui Gon called him “it is I my friend” when Yoda thinks he is going crazy
I love Yoda's character, but he FAILED HARD & in a lot of various ways. ... Heartbreaking
Reminds me of that phrase: The road to hell is often paved with the greatest of intentions.
Tis a bummah
Yep. Yoda destroyed the Jedi
I feel that having yoda been present throughout so many struggles within the galaxy, he must have recognized a principle within the force, that said there would be another time. It is an idea parallel to the Buddhist wisdom of the samsaric wheel, which marks the existence of life cycles in which the tendencies of the universe favor darkness or light, according to the changing conditions that influence outcomes. Instead of taking things into his own hands , he knew it best to trust in the force, and wait for the right moment to achieve the right action. Had the rebels acted accordingly, they would not have been involved in the loss of so many lives.
They are multiple reasons of why yoda can’t Join the rebellion one He felt like he failed his order Even though he could’ve saved it in the first place To even if he did Defeat the emperor It wouldn’t really change that much on the publics opinion on the Jedi or save the image it’ll be very difficult to do so in the first place anyway And The public would think yoda was the aggressor that attack the Emperor a while he’s doing other things the public will take the emperor aside way more than yoda They don’t really know Personally and how much he has done for the galaxy 600 years before the the prequel Error If those people were around They’re either in the far outer rim if not are all dead The last thing is to that He doubt himself a lot on And the order and he also thought it wouldn’t make a difference even if he joined the fight With the rebellion Because He very much knew deep down that the chosen one had a child that can save the galaxy and he thought also again the galaxy will be better off him not around and + He was also slowly dying as well so He really couldn’t Fight like he used to be when he was in the prequel’s or His youth days what do you guys think
Think Ur pretty much right
Could you please edit in punctuation? This is extremely hard to parse without it
I think you need to go back to school and learn how to write.
I believe Yoda knew his time was over the time of Jedi of his era was over as the novel said the Sith had evolved and Yoda realized that the Jedi also had to evolve if they were to stop this new breed of Sith and it was Luke who would bring about this new era of the Jedi
Really enjoyed the points you are making in this vid!
Thanks. I have watched alot of these videos. They are pretty interesting. Keep it up!
I think yoda knew if he had to go out and fight with the rebels because of his old age & his fight against the empire could possibly weigh him down, even though he could have been a huge asset to the rebels it wasn’t his fight
I think yoda feels alot of guilt and is somewhat defeated inside due the quick destructiin of the jedi under his term or grand master
I'm so satisfied watching these thank you dude your the man
I like the legends comic where he joined at the end of the rebellion and trained Leia
If yoda was traveling with the rebellion Vader & sidious would be able to sense his presence easily & would have been relentlessly hunting him.
I think if windu took out Sid then we'd have a different story
There is another way to look at it. Yoda just didn't believe in the rebellion. Any military rebellion, no matter how well intentioned, would simply end up being a repetition of the clone wars. And fighting the clone wars had been what destroyed the Jedi in the first place. Fighting wars in that way simply increased the overall darkness and played into the overall Sith strategy.
Even at the start of "a new hope", Obi-Wan has no particular interest in the rebellion. His interest is in saving Leia.
Obi-Wan and Yoda's plan seemed entirely focused on raising a new Jedi in secret strong enough to first defeat Vader and then (presumably) the emperor after. They had no interest in a political or military victory. Their only interest seemed to be in defeating the Sith.
Yeah, now that you mention it, the rebellion and the C.I.S do bear many striking similarities. Crazy how much our understanding of "reality" is really just a point of view.
There's another reason you haven't spoken of. This reason is tied to the one why he's hiding in a planet full of the force. He already had to hide is force power from the inquisitors on Dagobah. If he jointed the rebelion, he would have given their positions almost on the spot. So to give them a chance, he hid where his force power was nullified by the power of the place.
Best Star Wars channel this is.
Awesome Vid
It wasn't his mission he saw the rebels as a good thing yet he knew they couldn't succeed without one of the Skywalker children becoming a jedi his mission was to play the long game not the day to day battles
and if he knew only that, why did he helped in rebels, just for the sake of good old times? If he knew that he woudnt have helped in he training of other jedi.
Good narration.
Yoda was like a nuclear deterrent weapon. Always there, but hopefully never used!
He was a broken old man, hiding like a frog in a swamp
@@GuntherRommel perhaps, at the end
oOoOO, I like
Palpatine defeated this weapon...
This might sound dumb, but one element I have always ascribed to it is the level of the Empire's response. Obviously, the Empire hated the Rebellion, and turned its might toward squashing the upstarts; it even built a superweapon to try and prevent the Rebels' growth, but the Emperor had other objectives, and only alloted so many resources to actually deal with them. The actual threat of the Rebellion was minor, and there were even times when he could tolerate their actions, fir it allowed him to rachet up his own efforts, and simply place the blame on them. He wanted them gone, but there were extents to which even he wasn't willing to go, mostly because he knew they couldn't REALLY threaten the Empire. Surviving Jedi knew this, and chose not to join the Rebels because they didn't want to give the Empire even more motive to try harder. One of the greatest advantages the Rebellion had was that the Empire didn't initially see it as a serious threat, and that meant it could fight, and possibly claim victories, of which it might only take a few certain ones to actually win. Vader was single-mindedly hunting Jedi survivors across the galaxy, even as his master wanted him to focus on other things. If he was busy looking for Jedi, and these Jedi were apart from the Rebellion, then he wouldn't be carving up said Rebels, and they retained a chance at victory. Palpatine may have decided that the survivors weren't a real problem, anymore, but if he knew that they couldn't lend their abilities to the Rebellion, then that limited the Rebellion's ability, and allowed Palpatine to underestimate them, play longer games, put his focus elsewhere, and give the Rebels more chances, even with their limited resources, to hope for victory, and then the Emperor couldn't go back and undo it.
The timing of "Yoda does everything to broker peace" *shows Yoda decapitating 2 clones* couldn't be more perfect lol
Good assessment!
I think it's probably a great thing that Yoda stayed out of the rebellion. An outsider would say he could have trained new Jedi under the protection of the Alliance in a constantly moving training center with the hidden fleet and by the time we get to A New Hope there could have been at least a small core of trained Jedi with battle experience to help. However we have to look at Yoda's contributions thus far. He was a terrible general in war so he would have been awful wartime consigliere for the Rebellion. He could have trained Jedi but do we really want that? Every Jedi we know of in his direct lineage of his teaching was a failure at best and a Jedi turned Sith at worst. Would it really have benefitted the Rebellion to have a bunch of half trained Jedi of dubious ability that may fall to the Dark Side at any moment? Probably not. Even Luke was a failure. He was not ready, rushed ahead like his father before him in anger and fear and failed. The day was only saved because the serial killer that was Darth Vader balked for an instant with the weight of watching his own son murdered. Knowing everything we do now it's not entirely clear to me if Anakin would have turned fully back to the Light or tried to take over the galaxy with his son still convinced that he knew better.
Yoda was a scrub who destroyed the Jedi with his arrogance.
Yoda knew that the only thing he had which could defeat the emperor was his yodussy and he wasn't willing to give it up
NNNNNNOOOOOOO
There seems to be this weird misconception that since Yoda is 800 years old, 2 years would feel like a couple months for him. That certainly would be the case for some random human who lives every day for tomorrow. However, for a being who is to be primarily focused on the present moment almost all of the time, it doesn’t matter how many centuries it’s been alive, because 2 years to them will feel so much longer than two years to somebody who is always thinking about what they’re going to eat in a couple hours instead of what they are doing in that moment regardless of how short their life is.
ORDER 66
I have the prequel trilogy novels, too. I still have to read them. Slowly building my Legends collection.
This kinda gives more credit to how Luke acted in episode 8. Like he pulled a Yoda and not using that as a pejorative he understood that with Light there is Dark and the brighter the light the deeper the dark and he wanted to try and do something different to kinda of get out of the loop of Jedi and Sith causing great wars engulfing the entire galaxy.
Wow….. I never even looked it that way. Once Palpatine dropped his Dark side cloaking power Yoda knew it was over. That’s deep
Dude was almost 900 years old 😂 why would he want to
As always great video. Your whole explanation makes absolutely sence, if only there wasn’t Disneys Last Jedi which negates Yodas sacrifice and the hope for a renewal of the Jedi.
I believe that Yoda chose not to join the Rebellion as a Jedi general because he realized that was no longer the role he had to play. The Sith had metamorphosed from the warriors of ancient times (striking from the dark and then hiding) to the politicians and philosophers of the Old Republic era essentially hiding right under the Jedi's noses. As a result, Yoda likely felt the Jedi needed to change accordingly as well, and that his new purpose was to instruct rather than fight.
He was old, his ship was not functional, and he felt his shame in failing in the PT meant his exile was to last the rest of his life.
Thinking the entire order and every existing Jedi needed to die, is a very dark sort of hubris. I think Yoda would have recognized that there were many Jedi that thought differently, outside of the usual Jedi box, so to speak. Quinlon Vos is one such example. Yoda would have known this and taken some solace in it. The Order needed to be reborn, not completely eradicated.

“Rest I need. Yes. Rest. 3:33 AM, it is”.
I think the most badass green mignion of that galaxy far far away was like: "Bro i have beeing fighting for 900 years, let me be".
Dagobah... sounds like a place Italian New Yorkers go to get a drink...
I could type alot over this topic but instead ill just say i agree with most of what you said
Ah yes best birthday ever
Am I the only one whom the scene where Yoda clips hit fingernails onto the senate seat pod is just traumatising? Like i imagine them just falling of with a piece of skin....
My boi Yoda just wanna smoke and chill on Degoba😎
Palpatine hid in plain sight and made Yoda look like an idiot. I'd stay hidden forever too.
Thanks for explaining it,I thought it was because of that single moment of combat,be he meant collectively,so powerful in the force he was,he felt if a sith lord so powerful would arise he yoda would have detected it,but the emperor was able to hide in plain sight,and fool him and everyone.
Sometimes one’s answer is more complex due to one’s perspective of the question
Yoda was angry at himself for failing so bad and this leading to all of the Jedi dying. He knew if he got into the war, he would be susceptible to the dark side.
Great insight… his time had totally passed and he realized it
That was one of the reasons why I think he also came back to talk to Luke in TLJ, Luke had essentially done the same thing he did, go into exile after his order failed and everyone was destroyed. He returned Luke's faith in the Jedi and encouraged him to go back into action to stop his nephew even though it would kill him.
I always find it kinda funny that Yoda is 900 years old but still was kinda at his peak in episode three just to die of old age only some 30 years later.
I think Yoda genuinely just believed he failed, he gave all he had against Sidious and still kinda lost or at least knew he couldn’t match him 1 on 1.
He obviously being a 900 year old being was happy to play the long game and simply just wait out Sidious’ rule over the galaxy and when Luke showed up I believe he genuinely spent the last few years of his life being more active training Luke which ultimately led him to get tired and pass away?
He Can match him one on one
@@lubpost4014 then why’d he lose?
Yoda Have Good History Of Light Of Force
HE WAS 900 YEARS OLD, and he had to retire to a log in a swamp. Leave the guy alone.
perfect...
The problem with Yoda is that he is so powerfull in the force that Sidious and Vader would feel his presence across the galaxy. He would make everyone around him a target for Vader and the imperial forces.
He's also very old and near the end of his live. He isn't in the necessary shape of fighting this kind of battle anymore. Even if Yoda would confront an defeat Vader there's still Sidious and the empire. Even Yoda can't defeat the entire galactic empire by himself.
I believe even if Yoda had beaten the emperor in Revenge of the Sith, it would not have stopped the empire. Darth Vader would have simply taken over. Darth Vader was against the death star from the very beginning along with Admiral Thrawn. I believe it was Palpatine's own arrogance that doomed the empire.
No he couldnt Cuz palpatine wouldnt be able to Save darth vader from Obi Wan and give him a suit and still obi aan and yoda Can easily kill darth vader
@@lubpost4014 I think Palpatine's right hand man the blue skin alien guy (I don't remember his name) could have potentially known where Anakin had went. He would have saved Darth Vader and probably done helped him heal all the way. Darth Vader probably would not have needed the suite. There is also the possibility that Palpatine would have had contingency plans in case Yoda killed him. Even if he didn't, Palpatine managed to turn the majority of the Republic against the Jedi. So they would have been hunted down regardless. Unless Bail Organa could somehow convince them otherwise.
I disagree. I would compare the Jedi to Spiderman in that yes they lost the trust of people but with time in action would win them over. There is always a new event or person to take negative attention away from any current focus.
There is an alternate universe in which he *does join* for if we look at the battlefront 2 some of his lines are "come to see your empire I have" (to vader)
And
"Long has it been since I fought with a student" (to luke)
Etc.
You're reading into Fanservice dialogue
@@SevenPr1me well the entire concept of battlefront 2 is essentially characters from star wars being pulled to the same time and space to fights each other.
Anyway the "fanservice diagologue" still makes for 100× better concepts then the sequels 😂.
Which is kind of why we need alternate universes to begin with.
Because the Disney one makes so little sense that it should be a "what if?" Alternative universe and not the same time-line.
And among those "what if?" Universes there could be on e in which yoda has a reason to pick the the sword back-up.
I feel like he would’ve been more of a hindrance than a help at that point. He knew that he couldn’t beat the Emperor and that the Emperor would only get stronger. Him helping rebels would only have put a bigger target on their back as it would become harder to cloak his force ability from being detected.
That...and he was so old his bones were chalk dust.
He was old before episode 3.
Look at ep1. Sits, limps on cane.
Ep 2, floaty chair, limps on cane, summons power fights short time, IMMEDIATELY after limps on cane.
3 yrs of battles later its ep3.
Now he has to fight Sidious.
Yoda has to kill Sidious to win.
Sidious only has to survive yoda to win. Sidious knows Yoda's old body can only handle movement and combat for short periods of time. He just has to stretch out the fight. Yoda was too old to win. Despite being 900...born too soon. A younger in prime yoda kills Sidious....but the empire has still come. It just wouldnt have Sith leading it. Anakin would have been left to die in the lava. Yoda was born too soon. Its true the sith evolved, and its false the jedi trained to fight the old Sith, they just believed them dead.
Makes sense :)
The sith planned for 1000 years and only ruled for 27. Years. In that time the Jedi were living large with temples and starships. Think about those numbers for a min.
Yoda could have joined the rebellion then leads to turned into dark side to destroy dark side, and could have taken over the Galaxy all by himself.
Unlike our real life leaders I believe he realized his way didn’t work. He helped where the force called upon him but he felt he failed his people (dude lived to 900 that’s a lot of self dwelling). A new leadership was needed.
He may have been a great Jedi but he was a poor grandmaster. He was ultimately a failure. He and the rest of the council were poster children of arrogance. The Sith grew under his very nose.
That's a fatalistic view. They had gotten sloppy because they never were challenged, just like Rocky 6. He was never "poor" just never got to be that good. Palpatine was an evil genius. Eventually, Yoda stepped up though.
You’re not wrong. The Jedi under Yoda’s leadership had taken a very binary, dogmatic view of the Force that set the conditions for Anakins fall. They had also become complacent with their position of prestige within the Republic, blindly going along with whatever it did.
Yes. And this can happen to people if they have too much time on their hands. That was part of the sith illusion. But to project being a failure, albeit, on a fictional character, just feels too resigned.
I think Yoda towards the end Acually started doing what Qui gonn and others did and just follow the will of the Force. The force priestesses told him the boy he would one day train will ensure the future of the Jedi,so Yoda knew his mission was to stay alive no matter what and pass on the knowledge to the boy who was the Jedi future,and all this was before lqdme even for pregnant too lol. Even through obi wan and Yoda learned from the Jedis mistakes they still were full of em selves they thought Vader could not be redeemed and killing Vader was the only choice to save the galaxy. Luke proved he was going to be the leader of a brand new Jedi order that was not dogmatic or hypocritcal or anything that brought the old jdi order down. The Jedi needed to change and evolve.
ill some it up for ya. he cant train someone or himself if hes dead
I don't believe Yoda was there to help Luke. If you recall he didn't want to train Luke at all. He was too old. He was too afraid. But he still trained him because old Ben asked him to. Skip ahead in the future and there's a scene where Obi-Wan says he was our last hope and Yoda said no there is another. Meaning his sister Leia. But I actually think Yoda meant that it would be Leah's children that would come to balance the force.
First good title in a while. Finally a good video idea. Lol
Agree with it and yes the old needed to go and be remade
It's even simpler, he could easily have hunted down vader and killed him at any time but he knew only vaders son could redeem him
There is one think about letting the old school jedi die out,you had to have a bridge from the old school jedi showing where the old school messed up an made bad mistakes an showing what not to do like the old school jedi.I think to training Luke was away of the old school jedi having a part in starting a new order of jedi
yoda did not officially join the rebellion, but we've seen him provide wisdom/training to individual rebels like Ezra Bridger and Luke Skywalker. and Ahsoka Tano certainly got to learn from him before she got involved in the rebellion. like he said in the sequel trilogy, he is what they grew beyond - be knew the Jedi Order as he led it wasn't what the galaxy needed anymore, so he did what he could to help the next generation be the light the galaxy needs.
It wasn’t talked about much but Yoda was in full blown addictions while all this went on. Smack addicted. So sad.
I got an idea for a video why Mandalorian never used Jedi lightsabers of the Jedi they killed
Hey I texted the number nothing happened
6:10 The brighter his light the darker their shadow. How could one win a war against the dark when war itself have become the darks own weapon.
That's deep.
He was basically considered gone for years why blow that when the rebellion was forming. He had to keep it that way as well as honoring his own exile as he unfortunately along with the Jedi led to the form of the empire
I think the galaxy needed to overcome the empire alone , part of the reson the jedoli order fell was because people welcomed the empire .palpatine was popular. And people blamed the jedi for the war . ( although that was a lie )
It didn’t overcome the Empire alone, though. If it weren’t for the Skywalkers, the Galaxy would have remained under Sith rule.
