Let's embark on a journey back to 1983 with George Lucas, in today's episode where we go through the book "Making of Return of the Jedi" which, in detail, shows the original scripts of Return of the Jedi with Luke Skywalker, Vader, Palpatine, and the rest of the characters.

Tarkin was a cold and calculating man. He was the Empire's Grand Moff, he helped Palpatine rule the Galaxy with Vader and the other Moffs. In today's Marvel comic, we will see a side of him we've never seen before, and it will shock many to see him in such a light. Tarkin was bad, and this comment shows it, along with some of his childhood. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I AM YOUR FATHER, is one of the most iconic phrases in the world, and all because of what Vader told Luke during their duel in Star Wars Empire Strikes Back. What if Luke Skywalker did join his father? What if he agreed to overthrow the Emperor, to destroy him, and to rule the Galaxy as Father and son?! Learn more about your ad choices.

The Jedi had many accomplished Masters and Knights...however...not all left the order as Jedi...some left indefinitely for many reason, some of them, to become Sith!

Vader's mask is iconic. With the new canon...do you think Palpatine possessed Vader's mask like Lord Momin possessed his own? Could this have entombed Vader inside his life and mask....and the ways of the dark side for so many more years than he really would have allowed? Anakin was trying to break free, so could this magic have helped keep him locked away within Vader? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This is wild...Vader's thoughts on if Obi-Wan never followed Padme to Mustafar to confront Anakin Skywalker...I truly believe, as Vader says, that Anakin would have gone with Padme and eventually defeated Palpatine. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Kathleen Kennedy says Solo wasn't successful because it didn't have Harrison Ford's deepfake. I think this is incorrect. I believe Solo failed not because of the lack of deepfake or any other reason (I liked the film) other than the fact that The Last Jedi came out several months prior and created a big rift in the Star Wars fandom with the treatment of Luke Skywalker by Rian Johnson and Lucasfilm at Kathleen Kennedy's approval (I assume). Here are my thoughts on the matter... What do you think? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

in the new canon star wars novel BROTHERHOOD by Mike Chen, there's a moment where Anakin Skywalker is called "General" by a nearby Clone Trooper. Anakin thinks to himself how odd it is to be called by this title, and how he didn't become a Jedi to become a war general. I really like how they added this little detail in there. I think it adds to Anakin's overall views of how the Jedi were leaning into the politics and war of the Republic, and how he didn't want to be there. Learn more about your ad choices.

In the Kenobi show starring Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen, we will see Obi-Wan hermit in hit hut on Tatooine...however his hut will eventually be blown up by Vader, which begs the question, will this roll into the show? How does this play out for Obi-Wan and Luke in Ben's hut on Tatooine in A New Hope? Do they retcon this new comic book detail? It's new canon anyway so it's not like it really plays heavy in the George Lucas canon for A New Hope, which makes things a bit confusing. That all said, shows do seem to run against the canon of the comics, which is fine with me, whatever serves the story better. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I don't like Sand - meme has taken a very deep moment and scene for Anakin and turned it around into something laughable. Sure, I think it's funny too, however I won't let that distract me from the big picture here which is that Anakin is explaining something deeper than just a corny line about sand. He's talking about his life on Tattooine compared to where he is at this moment with Padme (Attack of the Clones). Hopefully new Star Wars fans can be brought in by these memes and when they see the films, they can really understand what Anakin is going through. I hope these videos get you ready for Kenobi. I can't wait to see Hayden Christensen return as Anakin Skywalker / Darth Vader and Ewan McGregor come back as Obi-Wan Kenobi. Hopefully these videos will explore more of Anakin's character arc in a thought provoking manner. Let me know what you think about Anakin's life in the comments. I still believe had Qui-Gon Jinn survived against Darth Maul, he'd have prevented Anakin from falling to the dark side with Palpatine and Order 66 entirely. Learn more about your ad choices.

A comlink chimed. Yoda opened his eyes in the darkness. “Yes, Master Kenobi?” “We’re landing now. Are you in position?” “I am.” A moment of silence. “Master Yoda … if we don’t see each other again—” “Think not of after, Obi-Wan. Always now, even eternity will be.” Another moment of silence. Longer. “May the Force be with you.” “It is. And may the Force be with you, young Obi-Wan.” The transmission ended. Yoda rose. Stover, Matthew. Revenge of the Sith: Star Wars: Episode III This dialogue from the novel (signed off by George Lucas for the book) is a really nice bit. I find it really echoes what Qui-Gon Jinn lived by and how Obi-Wan showed, in my opinion, fear in this moment. He didn't show the same emotions when fighting anyone else, except for Anakin, and Yoda vs Palpatine. Let's talk about the quote. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In Star Wars the Last Jedi, one thing I think was overlooked, was the fact that we never saw Luke properly mourn his best friend's death, Han Solo. With such an old relationship that the two had through fighting the Empire, Darth Vader, Palpatine and having Kylo Ren share the Solo/Skywalker bloodline, it didn't make sense that Luke just seemed a little upset at the sad news...

In the new Star Wars the Last Jedi novel, redditors have gone to leak very important material from the book about 2 weeks before release. In today's episode, let's cover one of the images surfacing the internet like crazy that talks about Luke having a wife. I don't want anyone to believe articles and blog posts so easily, rather let's think about this a little deeper. Luke's speaks about his wife in the first line of the book, but I believe it's just a dream. Something he partially wishes happened if he never met Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader and Palpatine. Everyone and everything would have changed. Snoke, Kylo Ren...Lei would never have met Han (most likely)...and the Empire would have controlled the galaxy for years to come.
