hey guys how are you doing so by now you've probably seen this viral video
that's been going around it's this cool cute interesting take on
how the star wars titles should be rearranged
in star wars for one to nine um it is by fake disney facts i believe and i've
gotten a lot of requests you can even see here
i found out there's some people that have been tagging me to kind of give my
response on this now sure the titles being rearranged are
interesting the guy has a point but i'm here to
explain why the titles are the titles for each film and explaining it as best
as i know from george lucas and things that i've read and come to learn and
also the things that i've theorized on myself so let's get started i just want
to watch the video give you all a recap for those who haven't seen
it uh or a recap for those who have seen it and you can watch it
if you haven't so then we'll talk about why each film
is the name that it is what happens in episode one we meet anakin skywalker
the rise of skywalker okay so the phantom menace is the phantom menace
because as he explains in episode nine the phantom menace is palpatine
he is the fan he's got two faces right so he's the guy the senate
you know he's the chancellor at this point he's just a politician
and he's going to become chancellor and then of course he is also the dark lord
of the sith darth sidious so that's why it's the
phantom menace it's about palpatine walker years later we find out that
palpatine leader of the sith have ordered an
army to destroy the jedi revenge of the sith
it's not the revenge of the sith because the sith haven't fully come out of
hiding yet we don't know who they are exactly the
jedi have thought that they killed either
the master or the apprentice with darth maul in the phantom menace
they didn't know who was who and they're now thinking that dooku might be the
sith lord but some of them are very weary about that because dooku is just a
kind of a good guy with different ideologies and at the end of the film
we get the title because yoda says begun the clone wars in episode 3
order 66 happens and the clones attack attack of the clones so this one would
be revenge of the sith because at this point
sidious now has his final apprentice the one that he's been coaxing
for about well over 10 years now since he saw anakin skywalker something that
people don't realize is that darth maul was merely a tool and
so was count dooku they weren't palpatine's full true
apprentice that he wanted from the get-go darth maul wasn't even really
considered an apprentice to palpatine as described in the darth plagueis novel
darth plagueis was palpatine's master if you don't know and the rule of two
states that you can only have one master and one apprentice but
because palpatine had darth maul as his apprentice darth plagueis knew
about this and so palpatine told him that hey i
want to train this guy i think he's good and darth plagueis gave him the go-ahead
saying that he's merely an assassin and that they can't break the rule of
two so therefore the sith never really fully came about
until this point when anakin became darth vader the true
apprentice one far younger and more powerful in episode 4 obi-wan teaches
luke that it's time for the jedi to return
return of the jedi no it's not returning the jedi because
he's not a jedi yet he's merely just a training force user he's
nothing really at this point he's still using a blaster and all that so
he is the new hope as stated in rebels where obi-wan kills darth maul we
get to know that there is a new hope indeed in episode 5 yoda
teaches luke how to use the forest the force awakens now this one here is
clever i like this however the empire did strike back when they
took over hoth and then of course at the end of the film when they defeated luke
and captured all the rebels and all that and
froze han solo and carbonite and everything was just in the favor of the
dark side the bad guys won the bad guys were the
empire so the empire strikes back the empire wins
that being said i do like the title for this film force awakens it's kind of
cool but i'm going to keep it the empire
strikes back in episode 6 both yoda and anakin die which makes
luke the last jedi all right so the reason
this is called return of the jedi a lot of people think that it's because
luke comes back and he's a jedi knight at this point no
wrong it is because anakin comes back and he is the jedi that returns so
anakin killed vader at the end and he killed palpatine
and he is the jedi it's all about anakin right george lucas has always said that
it's all about anakin and the only thing that luke did was he
was merely the catalyst to bring anakin back to the light side fulfilling the
prophecy after the empire is destroyed a new
empire comes the empire strikes back come on well
they called it the first order and then later in the last jedi at the
end of it they call it the rebellion again
so it was never really the empire but essentially the same thing
so this is the force awakens because the force was awakened within rey
and the rest is history come on guys in episode 8 luke trains rey and then
sacrifices himself to give the resistance
a new hope luke killed himself and therefore rey was the last jedi
however i still have a problem with the last jedi even being a title because as
we know ben solo was the one who really saved
her at the end of the day so it should kind of be like the rise of
solos i i don't know i don't know don't ask me
about the last jedi finally in episode 9 palpatine returns from the dead
making him the phantom men okay so this argument here
kind of negates his first argument with the phantom menace because if it's about
palpatine then the phantom menace should really be
about episode one this one is the rise of skywalker because rey
calls herself a skywalker at the very end and
it's the rise of it but in my opinion i like to think that because ben
solo saved her it's really you know the rise of the last skywalker then again
there's so many points that i'm confused by regarding the sequel trilogy so i can
really speak for one to six very well because i've studied that the
most grew up with that and interested in that the most so there you
have it that's why the titles are the names they are
george lucas i love you fans i love you catch you guys in the next one
