How Darth Vader Found Out Luke Skywalker Was His Son (Canon) - Star Wars Explained

Boba Fett Trailer FULL BREAKDOWN (HE'S HEALING): There are a few things in particular that I noticed. Boba seems to be healing. I think he's learning from the B'Omarr monks hidden beneath Jabba's palace. We first saw these beings in The Return of the Jedi before Luke Skywalker showed up. Now we see them again. They were ascended beings (contious-wise) and they were proficient in the art of regeneration. I believe Boba could use their help. by Star Wars Theory

Anakin's Ghost Visits Luke and Yoda on Dagobah - Star Wars Explained Original Scripts: What if Anakin had shown up to Luke Skywalker on Dagobah with Yoda? How is this possible, you ask? Well, in the original screenplay for The Empire Strikes Back, George Lucas was going to have Anakin Skywalker be a different character than Darth Vader. This would have made Obi-Wan Kenobi's lie to Luke, about his father being killed by Vader, true. It was later changed of course, and we got Vader dropping the line "NO! I AM YOUR FATHER!" which still shocks Star Wars fans who watch Empire for the first time. by Star Wars Theory

George Lucas Says Vader Beats Yoda in a Fight...: In an original discussion regarding The Return of the Jedi, George Lucas tells Lawrence Kasdan a few things about Yoda and the force, including, how Vader would kill Yoda in a fight. This was pre Return of the Jedi. Now of course Yoda's abilities changed later in the prequels with Anakin Skywalker, Mace Windu, Obi-Wan, Dooku, Ahsoka, Palpatine and more, but it's interesting to know that his original idea for Yoda, was for him to not be the Jedi grand master we know him to be today, and that Vader would have actually killed him in a fight! by Star Wars Theory

Darth Vader HUNTS The MOST WANTED JEDI Who SURVIVED Order 66 (CANON) - Star Wars Explained: In today's issue, we are told about the Inquisitors and how Darth Vader trains them...learning from the Grand Inquisitor that Palpatine has created a list of survivors from Order 66.

Qui-Gon's Thoughts on Anakin Becoming Vader: Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader novel by James Luceno is an amazing book from when George Lucas owned Lucasfilm (no longer canon). I think the internal struggle of Kenobi learning that Anakin survived and is deeper in the dark side now as Vader, would be an interesting dilemma to see. Qui-Gon Jinn can be heard here in this scene to help Obi-Wan Kenobi cope with learning that Vader is alive and that Anakin's destiny will be decided by the force. This also shows us that Qui-Gon is very aware of what's going on with Anakin and how he has singlehandedly changed the fate of the galaxy, the Jedi via Order 66 and gave rise to Palpatine. by Star Wars Theory

The Mandalorian Episode 4 Full Breakdown and Things Missed: Star Wars The Mandalorian Episode 4 is out! Here's my extensive review and breakdown of it, along with my thoughts and theory on the next episode(s). What did you think of this one? A bit slow, and a bit of a Clone Wars style episode. You know, where the heroes team up on a recluse planet with a primitive civilization as they save them from a bigger local threat. It was cool, but I feel like it didn't progress the main story much, just worked on the character arcs of Cara Dune (who was really cool). We also got to see a Loth Cat almost eat Baby Yoda, The Child. by Star Wars Theory

Darth Maul is Sent by Palpatine to FIGHT His Replacement - Star Wars Tales #24: Today let's cover the Star Wars Tales Issue 24 comic where Darth Maul is sent on a mission by Palpatine to find someone force sensitive. What Maul doesn't know, is that Sidious plans to make this target his new apprentice should Maul fail to beat him. Through the story we see moments of Maul's childhood as Sidious is taking him. The story is legends fun fact: Apparently, we were going to get Darth Vader vs Darth Maul in Rebels. This was how Maul was originally going to die (according to rumors). It ultimately never happened, and we got Maul vs Kenobi, leading to his demise. by Star Wars Theory

How Palpatine Cloned Baby Yoda: I've had tons of theories as to just what, where, how, and who this Yoda species is. I originally thought since it's an Empire bounty job, and Yoda's species is the bounty, that it's just too close to home for this to be unrelated to Yoda himself in some way or another. by Star Wars Theory

WHY Darth Vader DESTROYED the Crystal of Force Sensitive Children - Star Wars Comics EXPLAINED: In the latest Darth Vader comic, we got to see the Dark Lord KILL Jocasta Nu, and in the process discovered what she return to the Jedi Temple to claim...the crystal containing all the force sensitive children after Order 66. Darth Vader destroyed it after looking at all the names. Why? Could he want a new apprentice for himself? Does he want to save children?

How Palpatine Survived The Fall from Vader FINALLY REVEALED in CANON: Palpatine was thrown down the shaft in Return of the Jedi by Darth Vader, and survived as we saw in Star Wars Episode 9 The Rise of Skywalker. How did he do this? Did he go splat and then force heal? Did he do something else? We now know from the Rise of Skywalker novelization. I think this all ties in with Baby Yoda and The Mandalorian. I believe it's a way for the Empire to splice genes of The Child and see if they can make a vessel worthy for the Emperor to live forever after transferring his essence. by Star Wars Theory
