you're making a big mistake welcome to
watch mojo and today we'll be counting
down our picks for the top 10 star wars
mistakes disney wants you to forget uh
everything's under control situation
normal what happened uh hits like
weapons malfunction but uh
everything's perfectly all right now
we're fine we're all fine here now thank
you how are you for this list we'll be
going over the blunders mistakes or
controversies in star wars shows or
films which parent company disney would
probably rather stay out of the
spotlight if there's a recent mishap in
star wars we were mistaken to leave off
our list please help us rectify it in
the comments
number 10 director problems various it's
no secret that the disney era of star
wars has had a major problem with
directors namely with keeping them
around
i hate you
i know
directors have been let go from films
like solo an unproduced boba fett film
as well as colin trevara who was
famously dropped from episode nine the
jedi's weapon deserves more respect
the exact reasons likely vary on a
case-by-case basis but the most common
factor reported seems to be that most
aren't willing to go along with lucas
film head kathleen kennedy some fans
would probably characterize this as a
lucas film or a kennedy problem rather
than a director problem and they have
but the fact remains that disney would
probably rather we ignore all the
budding heads behind the scenes why you
stuck up
half-witted scruffy-looking nerf herder
number nine finn and rose's forgotten
romance star wars episode viii the last
jedi what are you doing here
hey
hi
uh
i was uh
you know finn and rose spend a large
chunk of the last jedi together on an
extended adventure more on that later
but even so a lot of fans were left with
whiplash when rose kissed finn after
stopping him from sacrificing himself to
protect everyone that's how we're gonna
win
not fighting what we hate
saving what we love
of course it was even more jarring when
finn and rose barely said two words to
each other in the rise of skywalker and
finn's admittedly limited storyline was
instead focused on connecting with
another former stormtrooper
okay wait
you were first order
not by choice while rose's reportedly
reduced role in the film likely had
something to do with their suddenly
ignored romance we can't help but feel
like the backlash to the character also
had something to do with it or finn just
didn't like her back
number eight digital peter cushing rogue
one a star wars story your concern's
hardly warranted if saying it would only
make it sound recreating deceased or
older actors is nothing new in hollywood
even so the revivification of peter
cushing's appearance to use for grand
moff tarkin's role in rogue one raised
objections as well as eyebrows failure
will find you explaining why to a far
less patient audience
sure something similar was achieved in
the same film with carrie fisher as
princess leia but in her case it was
only for a few seconds and fisher
reportedly approved of the recreation
before her untimely passing tarkin
meanwhile plays a large part in several
scenes the uncanny valley effect is
upsetting enough but the whole business
of using someone's likeness postmortem
feels wrong to many fans i believe i owe
you an apology director clinic
your work exceeds all expectations
number seven canceling star wars 13 13.
it's a long way down
it gets a lot dirtier where we're headed
star wars video games have often delved
into darker territory than the films or
tv shows but fans were especially
looking forward to exploring star wars
1313 a gritty look at boba fett's rise
as a bounty hunter in the 1313 section
of coruscant as for your bike you're in
luck you happened to crash onto one of
the best repair shops on 1313.
unfortunately after disney acquired star
wars in 2012 it shut down lucas arts
thus halting production on 1313.
although the location of 1313 would be
revisited in the clone wars and rumors
have persisted for years that the game
itself would be revisited nothing
concrete has emerged as of this writing
with the amount of detail that's gone
into making this world we really have
only just scratched the surface and
there is going to be a lot more to hear
about it in the future
[Music]
number six the casino side quest star
wars episode eight the last jedi cancel
bite no no that's
maz
is there any way that we can take care
of this ourselves we said we'd be
getting back to finn and rose didn't we
midway through the last jedi these two
leave the ragtag remains of the rebel
fleet in pursuit of a code breaker in
the cantonican city of cantobite
i wish
i could put my fist through this whole
lousy beautiful town
while there are a lot of criticisms of
this sequence from its design elements
to the mixed messaging on
environmentalism and war profiteering
it's the structural issues that stick
out particularly for most viewers if the
press is right
i can break you
into oman
snook's boudoir
no where we got it covered
finn and rose's adventure here is much
lower on stakes and investment than the
other major plot lines additionally it
doesn't amount to anything in the grand
scheme of things since their code
breaker ends up betraying that it's just
business
you're wrong
despite how forgettable the sequence is
star wars fans refuse to let it go
number five captain phasma's lost
potential star wars episode 8 the last
jedi
the villagers
kill them all
in the force awakens we're introduced to
captain phasma a female stormtrooper
played by gwendolyn christie imposing in
her awesome chrome armor phasma met an
unceremonious defeat in her first
appearance getting thrown down a garbage
chute what do we do with her is there a
garbage chute
trash compactor
yeah there is fans hopes that she would
have a better outing and the sequel were
basically dashed as well despite getting
a fight with finn phasma receives a
final ending falling into flames aboard
a half-destroyed ship you were always
gone
rebels come
[Music]
granted star wars characters have come
back from worse but many can't help
comparing her to boba fett a character
with a lot of potential that was
ultimately squandered by a lame
conclusion
we'll have to see if phasma can climb
out of her own sarlacc pit and redeem
herself like fett has
number four gina carano controversy the
mandalorian
looking for some work
gina carano first appeared in star wars
on the hit show the mandalorian where
she played cara dune a former rebel
that's eventually minted as a marshal
for the new republic she's a frequent
ally of hero dinjarin unfortunately
carano made several remarks on social
media which caused a swarm of backlash
leading to disney firing her from the
mandalorian
how'd you end up here
let's just call it an early retirement
the announced rangers of the new
republic series which would presumably
also start carano has also reportedly
been shelved i heard rumors you might
have gone legit i wouldn't go that far
disney seems determined to sweep any
involvement they had with the actor
under the rug on a related note number
three cancelled shows and movies various
there's a hunger for this character to
come back
the fans have been waiting long enough
disney has thrown everything but the
kitchen sink into star wars in recent
years so that has left quite a few
projects on the cutting room floor while
a few have been reworked as tv series
such as the solo films based on obi-wan
kenobi and boba fett not all have been
so lucky if you had spoken such
insolence to jabba
he'd have fed you to his menagerie
game of thrones showrunners david
benioff and d.b weiss were once slated
to work on a series of films but these
were canceled after they signed a deal
with netflix likewise ryan johnson's
long-rumored trilogy of star wars films
have also likely been canceled after
years of conflicting reports about their
status and given the delays on paddy
jenkins rogue squadron we're not
optimistic we'll see that anytime soon
now i found a movie about two things i
love so i'm gonna see you very soon
[Music]
number two the fall of skywalker star
wars episode 8 the last jedi luke
skywalker is the hero of the original
star wars trilogy to say that fans felt
a little betrayed by the direction his
character took in the last jedi would be
quite the
understatement luke is a broken and
defeated man after a lapse in judgment
almost led him to kill his own nephew
it's quite the dark place to take the
character and a lot of fans even mark
hamill himself were on team hashtag not
my luke skywalker
i failed you ben
i'm sorry i'm sure you are while the
rise of skywalker clearly tried to
backpedal on certain aspects of luke's
characterization it was too little too
late for many the jedi's weapon deserves
more respect
master skywalker

number one the sequel trilogy having no
plan the star wars sequel trilogy the
princess of old iran has disrupted my
plan
but her foolish act will be in vain
the sequel trilogy felt rushed compared
to the films they followed and while
some fans enjoy the trilogy most will
probably agree that they could use some
tightening up where'd you get that
a good question
for another time
mysteries set up early on receive
disappointing or no payoff in later
films and characters like finn touted as
major players are gradually pushed to
the side
ray i never told you
conflicting visions could explain some
of the poorly received elements of the
sequel trilogy but not all of them
disney has claimed in the past that they
had a plan but evidence clearly points
to a trilogy made without a road map in
mind which is weird considering george
lucas had one and they threw it out
i have other plans
