it's an instinctive feeling the force brought us together
we're not alone
good people will fight if we lead them
people keep telling me they know me
no one does
I do
I waited
and now
you're coming together
is your undoing
what are we doing there Threepio taking one last look sir but my friends
to confront fear the destiny of a Jedi
your destiny
the force will be with you always
welcome back everyone it's Charlie this is going to be my Star Wars Episode 9
trailer breakdown there were so many Easter eggs and references to Return of
the Jedi and other films during the saga obviously
it's the last film in the nine film Skywalker saga there's going to be lots of
references to the earlier films I'll just go through shot-by-shot and we'll
break down all the Easter eggs and foreshadowing if you're brand new to my
channel be sure to subscribe to get all the videos I'm doing a Star Wars ticket
giveaway all you have to do to enter that is be a subscriber and leave your
best Palpatine theory on the video what is Emperor Palpatine going to do
during this movie we start with a shot of them on the forest planet obviously
giving you a lot of Endor vibes but we don't know where this is the wreckage of
the second Death Star couldn't have crashed to this planet too far from
where the forest moon of Endor is but I'm assuming that this is a different
planet and we're not going straight back to Endor like all the other planets that
we see in the trailer are confirmed to be new places we haven't been before but
they all look very similar to earlier planets we've been to in the saga the
helmet that she throws down looks just like the helmets that they wore during
the speeder chase during Return of the Jedi she seems like she's in the middle
of the training exercise because she's running through the jungle with a
repaired version of Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber deflecting a blast from what
seems like the same type of small training droid that Luke used during a
new hope pretty identifiable is a second Death Star that she's running through
trying to jump from place to place the large structure behind her also seems
like the same type of console that obi-wan disabled during a new hope each
of the new mains get voiceover speeches starting with Finn
talking about feeling that the force brought them together I have this
feeling obviously they twist it later with Palpatine's voice over dialogue the
two of you coming together that will be your downfall we'll talk about Rey in
kylo Ren in a second Poe gets his speech about how good people will join the
resistance if they lead them well because they are desperately in need of
reinforcements to fight the first order so obviously you don't see a ton of
first-order ships it all seems like classic Star Destroyers I'll talk about
that in a second too but the idea is that there's been a small time jump
since the end of last Jedi enough time for Rey to do more force training so she
has a couple of new force abilities but they've also had time to replenish some
of their forces that's where Lando comes in because you look here at this giant
shot of the resistance fleet this is going to be like the Battle of Endor x 1000
you notice Falcon swoops into formation in front of
them the ghost from Star Wars rebels is right here on the right hand side they
also use that during rogue one but it was kind of in the background we finally
get another new shot of Lando talking to them while their battle planning you see
Rose Tico come back this is them standing in front of Poe's
x-wing this is one of the Karelian Corvettes taking off the forest planet
just like Gabon for during a new hope obviously referencing other films during
the franchise there are a couple notable forest planets within the Star Wars
Canon Yavin 4 and Endor just the two big ones one thing you may have noticed with
the new Star Wars films that they've done with the capital ships that they
didn't do in the original trilogy is that they've shown them taking off and
flying around in orbit normally in the classic trilogy you only see these giant
big ships when they're flying around in the vacuum of space but one of the
coolest shots in this trailer is of the Imperial classic Star Destroyer just
rising crashing through this ice whichever planet this is on then Rey
references the fact that everyone thinks that she's someone special someone
familiar to them but she still doesn't have any more information about where
she comes from who she is this is her preparing for her fight with kylo Ren on
the second Death Star him just walking through they said they filmed this
forever and it was raining the whole time just water everywhere he says that
he knows her but I think that he's speaking metaphorically like he sees
something similar in her not that he's literally holding her birth certificate
or anything like that his whole thing during last Jedi was you're nobody you
come from nowhere from scum but I think you're special this snowy planet is
called Kim G it's controlled entirely by smugglers and scoundrels
it's where Zuri Bliss's character played by Keri Russell shows up she's the new
bounty hunter who's meant to be an old friend of pose and obviously she shows
up here when they're talking to Threepio press F in the chat for Threepio because
it seems like he's sacrificing himself but then you see what seems like
Palpatine's sit throne it's kind of hard to tell where this is or if it's inside
the wreckage of the second Death Star or somewhere else because it seems like
there's all these rock formations behind the throne his dialogue is a twist of
Finn's voice over speech like Finn was saying that it's a good thing that the
force brought them together but Palpatine is saying that them coming
together will be their downfall but I think this is the twist is that
Palpatine is only talking about kylo Ren and Rey the two of you come
together will be your downfall this might be fin taking this skiff to try
and get to the second Death Star because then you see him running across one of
the giant bulkheads later as for CP Oh sacrificing himself remember we saw the
Sith Threepio shot in the last trailer with his red eyes that might be when
they hack him into this system he might just be sacrificing himself so they can
gain access to some system if anyone's going to make it out of this nine film saga
alive though you'd at least hope that it would be r2d2 because there has to be
somebody to survive to tell the tale of what happened and that was kind of r2d2
s role in the classic films he was the one that carried the message to tell the
story and give people information help me obi-wan Kenobi you're my only hope
there's another new shot of that tiny little droid that they introduced next
to bb-8 it's just meant to be a companion droid that follows bb-8 around
this shot of them charging through the Imperial ship seems brand new so it's
probably one of the first order Star Destroyers pretty easy to tell the
difference between the inside of the second death star in these newer capital
ships you get Luke's voice over saying confronting fear is the destiny of all
Jedi just like Luke had to make peace with the fact that Darth Vader was
really his father it kind of implies that Rey is going to have to make peace
with some extreme fundamental truth that's revealed about her origin like if
we're talking about parallels to Return of the Jedi
what was Luke afraid up during Return of the Jedi that he would turn to the dark
side enjoying the Emperor so in Episode 9 rise of Skywalker the
emperor is back Rey might also be afraid of turning to the dark side because we
have a vision of darkside Rey with that double bladed lightsaber and the last
trailer that we got surprising that they put all this new Palpatine scenes in the
new trailer but they kept out the sith version of Rey if you're one of those
people that thinks that Rey is secretly a clone of Palpatine
there's probably hairs on the back of your neck standing up watching all this
footage there's a new shot of them escaping the first order troopers on
this new desert planet they actually confirmed that the name is Posada so
obviously it's not meant to be tattooing or jakku or anything like that but it is
meant to be a mirror of the movements of the original trilogy like you start out
on Tatooine in Episode four in Return of the Jedi last film of that trilogy you
wind up back on that desert planet Tatooine then at the beginning of the
new trilogy you start out on jakku another desert planet makes sense that
you would also go back to a desert planet in Episode 9 the last film in
the new trilogy Lando and Chewie back together again
flying the Falcon just like he did during Return of the Jedi coming full
circle since the Falcon was originally his to
begin with not a scratch on her even though technically I believe Han
bequeathed it to Rey but really I feel like Chewie should actually be the owner
of the Falcon right now and rages borrows it from him every once in a
while these just seem like all the classic imperial star destroyers from
the original trilogy this shot of them writing those horse like creatures
across the bulkheads of the Star Destroyers is probably just before they
leave whatever planet they're on and head up into orbit like it's even more
of them off in the background slowly taking off this character at the head
leading their charge is Naomi Aki's brand new character don't know what the
name of her character is then we see by giving you a bunch of flashbacks kylo
Ren and Rey inside the wreckage of the Emperor's throne room on the second
Death Star so this is progression of kylo Ren footage where first you
see them fighting outside but then you see them working together inside the
second Death Star so it's like we're slowly traveling to the innermost cave
if you're talking about Joseph Campbell's hero's journey and you
eventually see the two of them with probably the most interesting shot in
the trailer inside this weird white room there's a scene of kylo Ren and Rayce
smashing this black structure this might be something connected to the Emperor
inside the second Death Star some communication device where he's speaking
to them it's too blurry to make it out really specifically but my first
instinct actually when I saw this was that they were smashing Darth Vader's
helmet so it could be connected to that too because the design language of this
white room is different from anything that we've seen in Star Wars before but
it feels very 70s old-school like it's very similar to what you would have seen
inside the second Death Star like a special secret room that the Emperor had
that we never saw inside that Death Star really hard to tell where this planet is
but it's just another wide shot of their charge as they rush across the
old-school Star Destroyers with a bunch of them in the background taking off
into orbit this area where Rey is looking up at someone approaching her
from above seems like it's the same rock formations is where Palpatine sit throne
was so she might actually be looking at him here floating in the air coming to
her and the final shot of her here with Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber raised up
in the battle ready position just seems like it's heard slowly getting her shit
together before some big big boss fight like I said it seems like it's a pretty
clear narrative what Palpatine is trying to do I've been waiting a long time for
this like he's been hiding biding his time building forces getting ready to
jump back in after the galaxy has become destabilized enough and weak enough to
provide him an opportunity to come back and take over again what's not clear
though is if he has his physical body and he's back or if it's his force
spirit because technically there are some pretty big rules about who can
become a force ghost and who can't and even though SIF can become force
spirits usually those spirits are bound to objects like holocrons or objects or
places so the emperor spirit might just be trapped inside the second Death Star
this whole time I've already talked about theories about how he's trying to
inhabit someone's body to come back but I would not be surprised if they go for
the dark empire twist with their special cloning tanks where he's been trying to
inhabit new people's bodies to really come back the whole idea though rise of
Skywalker I think implies redemption of Ben solo so somehow he will redeem
himself and defeat Palpatine if we're talking about parallels to return the
Jedi pull a Darth Vader and throw him down another shaft but this time the
death will stick because it clearly did not stick when Darth Vader tried to
him but if you spotted any other big easter eggs in the trailer that I didn't
mention in the video just write them below in the comments what I'll do is is
I'll do new Star Wars video in the next couple of weeks because we have the
