There are so many Star Wars theories floating around now that pretty much everyone has seen
The Force Awakens, and one of them I keep seeing is how Ezra will become Supreme Leader
Snoke.
In this video, I am going to put that theory to rest.
Hey YouTube, this is Urban Acolyte TV, and my name is Prince.
If you haven’t already seen it, I posted a video after seeing the Midseason trailer
for Star Wars Rebels Season 2.
I titled the video “Ezra Ren,” because I have long held the thought that Ezra Bridger
could potentially fall to the dark side and travel to Wild Space or the Unknown Regions
after his fall.
This would explain why we don’t hear anything about Ezra during the Original Trilogy even
though Princess Leia knows about Ezra being a Jedi Padawan.
I have also believed that even if Ezra does not fall to the darkside, somehow his actions
during the time that Rebels occurs leading up to the Battle Yavin, his actions will somehow
have an impact on the Knights of Ren.
What did not intend at all was for people to think that by me saying that Ezra might
play a part in the formation of the Knights of Ren, that I am implying that Ezra is Supreme
Leader Snoke.
Because of the growing number of comments that I see daily saying that “Ezra is Snoke,”
I decided to research this theory— so I am going to present the evidence to you of
why people believe Ezra is Snoke, and then I am going to deliver a dagger to “Ezra
is Snoke” theory to silence everyone.
So this theory is based on Ezra becoming disillusioned with the Ghost crew and all of the Rebels.
Ezra learns in Season 2 that his speech that was broadcast in Season 1 inspired his parents
to act out against the Empire.
They led a revolt which allowed political prisoners to escape from their containment
facility, but it resulted in the deaths of Mira and Ephraim Bridger—Ezra’s parents.
Ezra blames himself because he begins to believe this his actions as a Rebel are what get his
parents killed.
Unable to deal with his guilt, Ezra becomes obsessed with becoming powerful—powerful
enough to save the people he cares about from dying.
This sounds very similar to a Jedi we all know who was to be the Chosen One.
It should be noted that after seeing Ahsoka’s holocron with Anakin’s teachings, he becomes
obsessed with Anakin.
Ezra will find a Sith Holocron which will lead him to an Old Master who promises to
quench his thirst for knowledge and give him the power to save his friends.
Ezra later designs a new lightsaber—the cross guard saber as a symbol of his growing
power in the Force.
It is believed that Ezra invented the cross guard saber because we have never seen one
before, just like we have never seen a lightsaber with a blaster attached to the hilt.
Because Ezra invented the cross guard saber, he obviously passes on the design to his student,
Kylo Ren, when he becomes Supreme Leader Snoke.
Proponents of this theory also point to Ezra and Snoke having similar facial features.
Even though Snoke’s face has possibly been twisted by the dark side, they feel that Snoke’s
face and Ezra’s face are the same.
They also say that as part of Ezra’s fall, he will murder the other members of the Ghost
crew, and this is why they are not seen during the Original Trilogy movies.
To add more fire to this theory—they also believe that Ezra and Sabine Wren will have
a daughter who Sabine will hide from Ezra, on Jakku.
Okay— so the first major flaw to this is the deal with the cross guard saber— Ezra
did not invent the cross guard saber.
In the scene from the midseason trailer, Ezra probably finds that lightsaber.
I am going to place Ezra somewhere that has a lot of stored ancient Jedi and possibly
Sith relics.
If it happens to be where the Scourge of Malachor happened that I’ve mentioned in another
video, then Ezra could be standing on the site of a battleground where a lot of Jedi
and possibly Mandalorians died.
Could Ezra have found the crossguard saber, reverse engineered it, and later taught that
design to Kylo Ren?
Sure— he could have, and he doesn’t have to be Snoke to do that.
Ezra could reverse engineer the designs and somehow Ben Solo later finds them.
It could also be that Ezra found that lightsaber and left it somewhere.
In 20 years, Ben Solo could come to that same place and find the lightsaber that Ezra was
holding.
Much of this theory is banking on Ezra falling to the darkside, learning from the Old Master,
and killing the rest of the Ghost crew.
It sounds too similar to what happened with Anakin Skywalker.
If Snoke were also a Vader copycat, it might make sense—but I think Snoke used his knowledge
of Anakin to lure Ben.
Based on their dialogue, I don’t think Snoke has a very high opinion of Anakin.
As for the physical comparison— Snoke is described in “The Art of the Force Awakens”
as being a humanoid, but not human.
If I were to attempt to guess Snoke’s species, right now I would say that he might be Rattataki
because they already have bald heads and pale skin.
If you’re one of the people who do believe that Ezra is Snoke— I’m going to give
you final piece to end your argument.
Last week, someone tweeted Pablo Hidalgo asking him if Ezra is Snoke.
He responded, unequivocally that Ezra is NOT Snoke.
I don’t know about you, but when the person at Lucasfilms who is pretty much in charge
of what is canon says something, I tend to believe it.
If you want to stay in denial, that’s fine, I know that denial is not just a river.
I think it requires a really creative stretch for some of these Snoke identity theories.
I know I’ve reported a few of the crazy ones, but that’s what I do— I fill you
guys in on the latest news, theories, and developments.
I think from here on out—when I come up with my own theory, I’ll say “this is
what I think” so people don’t get confused.
So, I’m not sure what to ask at this point.
I mean, Pablo Hidalgo said that Ezra isn’t Snoke.
I don’t think Ezra is Snoke.
Maybe some people out there will still want to believe that Ezra is Snoke.
What do you think at this point?
I guess an even better question is this— are you convinced that Ezra will fall to the
dark side?
I know I’ve been one of those advocating that Ezra
will fall, but after the most recent episode on Rebels with the hyperspace whales— I’m
starting to have my doubts.
So yeah— what about you all?
Could Ezra fall to the darkside?
Do you think he kills the Ghost crew and knocks up Sabine?
Let’s have some fun with this one.
I want to hear your most outrageous speculations for Rebels, and I’ll do a video on that—because
I can’t do anything with this Ezra is Snoke crap…

I normally post new Star Wars videos every Wednesday and Sunday, so be sure to check
back, especially no those days.
If you have not seen them already, you can check out this video I just posted about another
theory about Supreme Leader Snoke.
In that one, I compare Snoke to Darth Nihilus from the Knights of the Old Republic games.
You can also check out this other video where I present my reasons for why I don’t think
Snoke is Darth Plagueis.

That’s all I’ve got for now.
Remember that I love telling you all about Star Wars so that it might change your life
the same way it’s changed mine.
Y’all keep on breathing, and May the Force Be With You.
