Sidenote: Sorry if the background music is overwhelming at points, I didn’t notice until rewatching after the post. Sorry for the inconvenience and I hope it didn’t take away from the content too much. <3

Chewbacca being Sasquatch is also a reference to the filming of Return of the Jedi. When filming the Endor scenes in the Pacific Northwest there were genuine fears from the cast and crew that Chewbacca would be mistaken by people in the woods as being Bigfoot.

About 2/3 of the way through this video, I realized my nerd cred wasn’t as deep as I thought it was..

Disney claiming to be "family friendly" is like a politician saying he never lies

Hearing R5-D4 instantly agree with R2 and understand his scenario, even self destructing to make sure that R2 can complete his mission is why Luke exists in Star Wars. R5-D4 was the real hero of the Star Wars OT!

To add to the ET thing: Remember the Halloween scene from ET where he's dressed as a ghost? When ET sees a kid in a Yoda costume, he kinda freaks out and follows "Yoda" around saying "Home! Home! Home!" Until Elliot stops him.

Qui-Gon did not commission the clones. It was Sifo-Dyas who approached the Kaminoans and commissioned them to create an army. Then Dooku ordered the Pykes to kill him. Dooku then took over the cloning operation and recruited Jango to be the genetic template. Point is that Qui-Gon had nothing to do with the cloning operation.

I think that if in attack of the clones Darth Jar Jar just killed someone with a brutal force choke and complained about having to force himself to talk in that accent, everyone would've loved Jar Jar way more.

An interesting fact that was neglected in the iceberg. George Lucas’s Neck actually contains a Venom Sack; with which he spits a highly caustic Venom at anyone who dare challenge his supreme creative vision. In a way not dissimilar to the Dilophosaurus from his good friend Stephen Spielberg’s film, “Jurassic Park.” In fact, some industry insiders say the scene was inspired by Lucas.

People believe that Ben Kenobi is using the force to make Luke taller “for some reason”

HIGH GROUND

R5 was one of the first on screen heroes to sacrifice himself and we didn't even know it.

It's pretty funny that "Ewoks have horses" is a theory based on a single scene in Rise of the Skywalker while there are 2 full Ewoks movies where we can see them riding horses/ponies.

One theory which isn't mentioned here, but is probably the most interesting one, is that all humanoid species in Star Wars have a common ancestor.

It essentially explains that all species with humanoid traits, like having arms and legs, have evolved over thousands to millions of years from a common ancestor, way before the first SW lore arose. Before hyperspace-travel was invented, there was a time where small empires ruled over starsystems near to eachother and only after the discovery of the hyperspace-travel species spread out over the galaxy. One of the first empires to do so just happened to be a humanoid species, most likely humans themselves, which came from earth (which is kind of SW canon) and evloved into all the humanoid species we know in Star Wars, like Twi'lek or Gamorrean.

So, there is a possibility that the whole galaxy got taken over by the human genome, the only problem about this theory is, that in the beginning of any SW media it says, "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away".

So wait, if Rey went back in time to become Anakin’s mom, does that mean the Lego Star Wars Holiday Special is canon because it actually showed Rey time traveling?

On Han Solos usage of Hell. It was added in the books that the local religion/culture for Corellia had 9 hells.

[MoraleIsHigh]

I'm surprised that no one mentioned the theory that since the Daughter's life force was transferred to Ahsoka to bring her back to life, that Ahsoka is now the living embodiment of the Light Side of the Force.

[ellelongacre]

The "Bigger Luke" theory is more easily explained by Luke occasionally wearing heels or platforms.

[ducklord]

Gay Clones might also reference the robot chicken sketch where a clone is trying to find out if he's gay if he has sex with another clone

[danihk]

addition to book of the whills theory: all of the star wars movies are technically translations into english because the common galactic language would likely not be english. this explains discrepancies like “what the hell” or “geez” as it is a translator drawing cultural parallels in translation.

A defense for Han shooting first is that he was kinda being held a gun point. What would you rather do, shoot first and not risk injury to your self, or risk having your head blown apart just so you can say “he shot first”
