  • Despite Anakin's innumerable heroics, he is not granted the rank of Jedi Master.
    He suspects he knows the reason.

There are many different outlooks on the Force both inside and outside the organization and there is nothing stopping someone from having a Jedi-like philosophy without being one just as there are many Jedi who have fringe views and alternative interpretations of their code but are still very much Jedi. So in essence the term is misleading.

Thus you see, the theme of dichotomy is deftly woven into the wider meta-work. In this context, Dr Willrow Hood spoke of the inescapbility of the themes, though I think this may be overstating the case. Rather I think it is a matter of self-perpetuation due to our very nature as sapient beings, which...

      As he gives Anakin a projecting speaker mask, a taller frame, and the sole mission to spread his thesis to every surviving Jedi - to spread the word so to speak.
      It is said Vader killed them all - but I have my doubts if 2 Jedi likewise threw themselves out of windows at the mere mention of the thesis.

    The Shaak Ti bit at the end is even funnier the more you delve into it. There's two deleted scenes in _Revenge of the Sith_ where she dies, but earlier in Genndy Tartakovsky's _Clone Wars,_ Shaak Ti was killed by Grievous twice, in both season finales, but they backpedaled both times. The first time, they showed that she survived at the start of Season 2, apparently having changed their minds between seasons, and the second time, they put in a shot of her surviving at the last minute. The more digging you do, them more times Shaak Ti dies.

    Obi-Wan breaking the 4th wall with his last line caught me off guard.
    11/10 Video will recommend.

    Anakin giving Mace a precedent of a jedi master throwing themself out of a window is a great subtle reference

    Anakin being a niche academic DESPERATLEY trying to get people to listen to his extremely specific take on an extremely specific thing is a wonderful storyline

    "What if you all die or disappear?"
    So now we truly know why Anakin supported Order 66.
    As Vader, he goes around reciting his entire thesis on dichotomy to the remaining Jedi that survived and not a single one has been able to resist killing themselves.
    He truly is the greatest Jedi hunter that has ever lived.

      It took forever to find one Comment about this. That line was gold and everyone is talking about windows or shaak ti.

    We really gotta hear the entire thesis, including the interesting side tangent. You should make a 2.5 hour long video with it.

    Obi-wan: anakin, we can’t exactly say why-
    Windu: oh no kenobi, we’re gonna fucking tell him.

    I've rewatched this a couple dozen times at this point. It's quickly become one of my favorite videos on this platform. The only thing that would make this even funnier is if, at the end, a youngling ran in and said "Master Skywalker! I have a question about your thesis!"

    I'm loving the continuation of Anakin and his thesis. Maybe one day we'll get the full thing, all 2.5 hours of it XD

    I like to think Yoda is just out of shot in his chair in a middle of a drug induced coma.

    Gonna ask Dooku to keep his scary fingies poised until "bemulleted" is added to the dictionary.

    I love how mace windu is depicted by the fans, fits the casting infinitely more.

    Loving Obi Wan's sassy voice. He really does enjoy mocking Anakin.

    One of these days we need the actual unabridged 2 hour long thesis. (With the half hour side tangent)

    "am I happy? What an interesting question" is the exact response I would expect out a English or Philosophy student after submitting their thesis
