I don't hate Paul even though he hates the Prequels and his SW love is only on a surface some of the film's level. But I do hate Disney. It's like the richest fan ever bought my two favorite franchises and he doesn't even like them. He just wants to destroy then cause he hates American macho white guys? It's almost like a jilted lover thing. Disney must have dated a regular Joe but was dumped. Just messing around guys. Love your content and the discussions about Joe's and pop culture. 😎🍻

The force projecting is from the pre Disney expanded universe.

I can't believe I'm defending Disney here, but their bombers are repurposed civilian ships probably. Or they're slow because of their payload. The bombs might be handmade. Disney sympathizes with ISIS and they want to make the good guys, rebels, look like terrorists fighting for good. It's horrible how they're using my two favorite franchises for propaganda against my country and culture. From within. Which is what Lucas and Mel Gibson are getting at with their careers. Mel's later career of course. Patriot, Passion, Braveheart, and Apocalypo. Apocalypto has that line in the beginning too about a country isn't destroyed from without but from within. Something like that. But that's Disney's/globalist's game.

The bb chicken walker thing is EXACTLY like the R2 thing. And oh man, no, Disney is ten times as goody with SW. Man Paul, you're breaking my heart. 😔...😁🍻

If the new generations don't want to ingest the original canons of franchises then they don't deserve the new iterations.

Cujo is right about the anti religion state in Hollywood. Also anti family and anti American. And anti white. It's sad.

So Paul is okay with screwing over your friends and killing younglings? The sith are evil characters they're not meant to be something you aspire to be. Also, in America we call that edgelording when someone likes the bad guys or always says the bad guys are better. Cobra, sith, brotherhood of evil mutants, etc. Also anyone that has a 666, Satan, dark lord, etc in the screen name. Still love you guys.

It completely reinforces the idea of mitichlorians. They just tell you how strong in the force you are. And if anyone can tap into the force, some are.steonger than others. Clearly demonstrated by the films when there's only a handful of force wielding sentients on screen at once. Tons of humans and other aliens aren't shown using force powers. The fact that training to be a Jedi makes you better reinforces mitichlorians too. It probably increases ad you train amor age and train with the force. Yoda being so old and training so long would obviously have a high mitichlorian count. The people claiming this is a bad idea or dumb just don't even take the time to think about how the force is already scientific on screen in the OT. And it didn't take away from it being mystical either. Also, it's not like you're quantifying the force, you're quantifying a person's power level essentially and that is a great thematic tool. RPGs Highlander and Dragonball use this idea of gaining experience to become more powerful.

The Jedi were based in the templar knights and the samurai. The Jedi weren't evil. They were simply mislead by Palpatine. Palpatine is such a negative force user that their positive was weaker and they failed. But Like training a new generation after defeating the emperor was to rebuild the order. Which is the right thing to do. They thought the sith were wiped out. They learned their lesson and train. They're more a PMC than a religious organization.

Stephen is right about force ghosts being finite. In the EU obi wan tells Luke he will eventually not be able to appear to Luke. 🍻
