Here's Why Snoke's BACKSTORY WASN'T in The Last Jedi - Star Wars Explained

Kylo Ren's Sith Eyes In The Last Jedi - Star Wars Explained: Star Wars The Last Jedi is nearing...We've been given this image of Kylo Ren, is it really what we think? Are they really his new Sith eyes? What about his fate at the end of the film? Should I go into greater detail about it in another video? What happens to Luke Skywalker in The Last Jedi? Who is Snoke? Or rather...WHAT is he? Jedi? Sith? Why does he want Rey? How does Snoke connect to Anakin Skywalker? by Star Wars Theory

How LUKE Found Ahch-To and The FIRST Jedi Temple (CANON) - Star Wars The Last Jedi Explained: In Star Wars The Last Jedi we see Luke Skywalker on Ahch-To, the very FIRST Jedi Temple...however...the film fails to explains just how he got there. Thanks to the Visual Dictionary, we now know just how he found it! Could the Prime Jedi be Snoke? by Star Wars Theory

The SITH GHOST Luke Almost Spoke to in The Last Jedi - Star Wars Explained: In Star Wars The Last Jedi we got something very different from what we all thought. The concept art book for the film reveals what was conceptualized to an even greater degree (which I wish we got). However today's episode will cover just what Luke was supposed to experience in The Last Jedi upon his deep meditation. It's a scene that was never put into the film, however with 20 minutes of deleted scenes being added to the movie upon home release, I hope we get it in a deleted scene, which would be really interesting to see. Who could this dark side ghost be? Snoke? Palpatine? Darth Vader? Anakin Skywalker? by Star Wars Theory

Why Does Luke Skywalker Say the JEDI MUST END? - Star Wars The Last Jedi THEORY: The Star Wars The Last Jedi Trailer has given us something we didn't really understand...the Jedi have been cemented into our beliefs as the end all be all philosophy in Star Wars...so why would Luke Skywalker tell us that they must end? In this video we'll breakdown exactly why he says this (to the best of my knowledge and sources) and what it means for Star Wars The Last Jedi, Rey, Kylo Ren, and of course Luke Skywalker himself. How will this impact Snoke? What about Anakin Skywalker and his possible interactions with his son through the force? Yoda has told Luke that he will be afraid...could this be what Luke is afraid of? His own dark side, or the dark side in general, and how addictive it is? Could Rey be a "Grey" Jedi? Or something entirely different...?? by Star Wars Theory

Did LUKE Imagine the TWIN SUNS in THAT Scene? (CANON) - Star Wars The Last Jedi Explained: In Star Wars The Last Jedi, during THAT ending scene with Luke Skwaylker...did he imagine the binary suns as a pay of homage towards A New Hope? Or were they actually there? I hope this episode answers that question for you if you had it. Did you enjoy yesterday's Darth Vader comic brought to life? Did you like Snoke's role in The Last Jedi? What about Kylo Ren and Rey's? by Star Wars Theory

How Luke CRASHED a Star Destroyer on Jakku (CANON) - Star Wars Explained: In Star Wars The Force Awakens, we were introduced to the planet Jakku, where we saw a massive Star Destroyer having crash landed. In the canon book Tales of Luke Skywalker, we are told of how he crashed a star destroyer on the planet itself. Could this be the one that we saw, or just one of many? The stories here lead into Star Wars The Last Jedi so I'll definitely be covering as much from the novel as I can before the movie comes out, for you all. Hopefully we'll find some information here about Snoke, Rey and Kylo Ren, along with Luke Skywalker's training after Return of the Jedi. by Star Wars Theory

Rey's Weird CAVE Scene Explained by Rian Johnson (spoilers) - Star Wars The Last Jedi Explained: In Star Wars The Last Jedi we got a different kind of scene, one that mirrors Luke Skywalker's cave scene from Empire Strikes Back with Yoda...how did this scene make sense? Rian Johnson discusses it in an interview, that he place in this story isn't served on a silver platter, that Kylo Ren's theory in (Snoke's throne room) for her parentage is as skewed as her perception of herself... Let me know what you thought of this scene in question! It was quite different, that's for sure, but cool nonetheless! by Star Wars Theory

How Starkiller Base Was Built So Quickly - Star Wars Explained: In Star Wars The Force Awakens, we saw the newly built Starkiller Base, much like the Death Star with some differences, it comes to question just how this MASSIVE construction was made so 'quickly'? Do you think in The Last Jedi we'll get a new base? Or will they scrap the whole idea and move to Snoke's huge ship? I hope we see Kylo Ren much stronger in this film, and I believe we will soon...Do you think he'll team up with Rey? Will Luke Skywalker show his green lightsaber? by Star Wars Theory

Why Kylo Ren Has a NEW Lightsaber in The Last Jedi Trailer - Star Wars Explained: In Star Wars The Last Jedi Trailer we saw a shot of Kylo Ren's new lightsaber in the throne room of Supreme Leader Snoke. The lightsaber has caused many to wonder and question as to why it looks so different than in Star Wars The Force Awakens. The answer is quite simple and it's from the extended edition of episode 7 where Rey vs Kylo Ren in a fight. I hope we see more of Kylo constructing his saber in The Last Jedi, along with him fighting Luke Skywalker. I wonder if we'll finally see Darth Vader's kyber crystal pendant from Luke's necklace to be used in a hilt...only time will tell... by Star Wars Theory

WHY Kylo Ren's Lightsaber Crystal is Cracked (Darth Vader) - Star Wars The Last Jedi Theory: In Star Wars The Last Jedi we know Kylo Ren has a crack kyber crystal in his lightsaber (as we saw in Star Wars The Force Awakens). Why is this? This episode has many different theories I've thought and pondered over as to just how this lightsaber crystal is cracked...what's missing...? Luke Skywalker in The Last Jedi has a shard of a lightsaber crystal around his neck as a necklace, and this has been rumoured to be Darth Vader's RED lightsaber crystal. Will Luke use this crystal? Will Luke have a red lightsaber? Will he fight Snoke? Will Anakin Skywalker ever take the high ground? by Star Wars Theory

Unboxing Ben Solo's NEW Lightsaber at Galaxy's Edge REVIEW: I got sucked in! Was lucky enough to grab some limited edition (or so they say) lightsabers from Star Wars Galaxy's Edge upon my visit this last weekend. Here's my review of the very unique Ben Solo Jedi lightsaber. I believe this was the one we saw in The Last Jedi where Ben fought Luke Skywalker just before the Temple fell. I wish we saw more of his back story in Rise of Skywalker, but I think we'll see it in maybe a spin off show or extended materials. Hope you enjoyed the review! by Star Wars Theory

Top 10 Interesting Facts About Yarael Poof Jedi Master: Who was Jedi Master Yarael Poof? Well, here are 10 interesting facts about this epic looking Master. In Star Wars The Phantom Menace you might remember seeing him in the background, but do you know anything about him? He was quite powerful, and extremely attuned to the force. I would love to see him in maybe a prequel to the prequels or something. To see all those Jedi Masters again, and not just sitting in their seats, would be epic. The Star Wars galaxy is made up of so many different species that each have different powers and abilities, much like Yoda's, who we're learning about in The Mandalorian, especially now that Luke Skywalker has taken Grogu. by Star Wars Theory

Secrets of Luke's Force Tree - Star Wars The Last Jedi Theory Explained: Hey everyone! Today's episode will cover info about Luke's Force Tree in Star Wars The Last Jedi. There may be some spoilers in here, so for those trying to avoid any, beware. What will Luke Skywalker's force tree bring for us in The Last Jedi? Is it something like Yoda's force tree in Empire Strikes Back? Where Luke went inside and fought Darth Vader, turning into himself? Or could this offer more...Is this where Rey enters to find herself? To learn more about the powers of the force? Is this where Kylo Ren went inside? How did Snoke reach out to him? Does he find Darth Vader's suit? Darth Vader's Lightsaber? So many theories... by Star Wars Theory

Will Luke Skywalker Be WEAK in The Last Jedi? (ANSWERED) - Star Wars Explained: In Star Wars The Last Jedi we've gotten lots of worry about Luke Skywalker being weak, and, well....lame... Well, we now have a quote by the director Rian Johnson in an interview that describes briefly what Luke will be like in this film in terms of his mental clarity...however...does this mean he's just being careful with his words? Will we see a full power Luke Skywalker against Kylo Ren and the Knights of Ren? What about Snoke? Is he not as powerful as the new possible ruler of the galaxy? I really want to see Luke swing his green lightsaber around with speed, killing the enemy with the same violence Darth Vader did in Rogue One a Star Wars Story. What do you think? Are you looking forward to seeing Luke's new power(s) in Star Was The Last Jedi? Or are you more into seeing Kylo's new abilities and his trials commanded by The Supreme Leader Snoke? by Star Wars Theory

Why Kylo Ren Will Receive Darth Vader's Lightsaber in Star Wars Episode 8 The Last Jedi - Theory: In this episode we will go over why I believe Kylo Ren will get Darth Vader's lightsaber in Star Wars Episode 8 The Last Jedi.

Snoke Confirmed MORE Powerful than Darth Vader and Palpatine - Star Wars The Last Jedi Explained: In Star Wars The Last Jedi, Snoke poses a new threat to the galaxy. He is the successor (or is he?) to Palpatine/Sidious. That means he must be even more powerful than everyone we've come to know in Star Wars. In a recent interview with Andy Serkis who plays Supreme Leader Snoke, he had this to say about Snoke's powers in comparison to Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine's. I was surprised to hear it, but it makes sense with the new era. Do you think Snoke is more powerful than Darth Vader and Palpatine? Will Kylo Ren be stronger than Rey in Episode 8? Where does Luke Skywalker land in all of this? Is he going to surpass Palpatine at this point, or will be still be playing catchup? by Star Wars Theory

How Darth Vader SPOKE The SECRET SITH Language (CANON) - Star Wars Explained: In Star Wars some things have been made canon whereas others have been left in legends. In the canon novel Lords of the Sith, we see Darth Vader speak in the ancient Sith tongue to Palpatine. The book is followed by "Tarkin" which I recommend, as well. I wonder if in Star Wars The Last Jedi we'll see Luke learn the ancient Sith language, now that he's so obsessed with all things ancient and force user affiliated. It would be cool to see Darth Vader speak this language in the movies...just imagine if we got a Star Wars Trailer of it someday for a new anthology film. Perhaps Snoke speaks this language, and Kylo Ren learns it too...only time will tell... by Star Wars Theory
