If luke becomes a sith, obiwan is very bad at training jedi.
Good Jedi. Terrible training Jedi
+REINER ZUFALL Dont forget, Yoda trained him to.
+REINER ZUFALL As was Qui-gon. Qui-gon had an apprentice before Obi-wan that was drawn and eventually turned to the dark side by his master Count Dooku. (allbeit it isn't cannon anymore) gr
+REINER ZUFALL no not techniclly he started his training to late and he started his path to the dark side when imperials burned and killed everyone in his home on tatooine
+REINER ZUFALL well, they did their best in trying to derail their destinies, but in the end, even they couldn't stop what was already a foregone conclusion. so to be fair, i think it was more about the pupil becoming what they become no matter what moreso than them being bad at training jedi.
Imagine this:
Kylo Ren is defeated in battle, and is forced to remove his helmet. The camera moves behind him, his hands reach up, and he slowly pulls it off his head. "Meesa sorry." He cries, before he collapses.
It was Jar-Jar the whole time.
Lol but that's an actual theory that's kinda convincing if you look at the clues
You made my day! Thanks.
+Justin o'connor nie , bo nie bd w TV
I think if that actually happened, I would stay home, because people would riot and burn their theaters and cities to the ground that night lol
+MaroonThief That would be a huge disappointment...
Mat pat in 2015: plapltine was cloned crazy right?
Me in 2020: you have no idea
Well he was
plapltine :)
I changed my name everyone my name is plapltine now
@@deruma7524 yes.
"SOMEHOW"
"How often do we see Yoda wrong?" Throughout the entirety Clone Wars and Episodes 1-3. His rigid mindset is his greatest flaw. His idea of the Jedi being an emotionless cult directly led to the rise of Darth Vader
Also splitting up the twins was unnecessary and "no one can come back from the dark side"
Yoda is pretty much always wrong lol
He was also wrong in this case
In the original trilogy he wanted Luke not to go help his friends and didn't want him to know that Vader was his father so he wouldn't get connected
He believed connection to people was bad and led to the Dark Side always and got proven wrong by Luke who didn't turn and in fact turned Vader back to the light by his connection
Yeah maybe mat should have paid more attention
Matpat,I am FROM THE FUTURE and Luke is in only like in 5 seconds of the movie.
i am from the future too! its actually 6 seconds
gameranx143 6.2!
OMG Bananas
6.2.1
uhm unlimited gamer 6.2.1 isn't an actual number
What happened
If Star Wars 7 sucks, J.J Abrams shall be renamed to Jar Jar Abrams.
ahhhh good one
Hilarious and original
+Bitzu *clap clap clap*
gotta admit.... I hope that's original because that's fucking hilarious
Derpsider I've heard it a billion times on IGN forums :/ still funny though xD
Oisin MC awww... thought he was original. nvm. that's the internet for ya
MattPat: How often do we see Yoda wrong in this franchise?
Me: Quite often, actually...
I mean, he was very wrong and actually wants to see the Jedi die out matpat. I’m just saying, he says “It’s time.”
Every time he tries to form a sentence.
For the entirity of the PT
@@haroldb1856😂
Anakin: don't underestimate my power
Luke: don't underestimate my power
For the memes kylo ren: underestimate my power
Jabba: It's over, Jedi: I have the high ground.
like father like son
Copied.
Lol then in the actual movie luke skywalker gets 20 seconds of screen time and has no speaking parts.
+matthew fegan Legend has it that J.J handed Mark Hamill the script, and after looking at it Mark said "Can I have a word please?"
+Soviet Creeper Abrams: No, no you can't
+Little Miss Eevee !!!! Yea hahaha
+matthew fegan LUKE HAS ERASE REY MEORY SO DONT REMBER HE HAS DAUGTER
actually he was only paid around 300k for what was most likely an hour or twos work
Even though this did not happen, one line I noticed...
Luke talking to jabba: I warn you, *do* *not* *underestimate* *my* *power*.
End of Battle of Episode ][ ][ ][:
Obiwan: It's over anakin! I have the high ground!
Anakin: *Do* *Not* *underestimate* *my* *Power*!
See the resemblance?
VideoGame Madness//VGM O SHIT
VideoGame Madness//VGM it seems to me you have the lava ground
VideoGame Madness//VGM
Now Star Wars VIII will have that happen with Luke
VideoGame Madness//VGM those are vastly different scenarios Luke is trying to rescue his friends from a corrupt crime lord and anakin is trying to kill his best friend they are mirror opposites which might be poetic in some way but who knows
Dop3 Mystical the situations actually aren't too different.
those were the good times, when we thought the sequel trilogy could be good
Yea and then we unfortunately had to see what happened 😔
It wasn’t that bad I loved it
Not me, I knew immediately it would be awful, but "failure is the greatest teacher" is a great video made from clips of all 9 movies. Pretty amazing. Would have been cooler had this theory been right. He would have made a better writer than who they got
what sequels? There's only 6 movies
@@Dominator_0211 u mean u don't even know the prequels exist?
MatPat: *Predicts Abrams' plans.*
JJ Abrams: *Changes movie and only gives Luke one scene without lines.*
"It's like poetry... It rhymes"
Anakin- "You underestimate my power."
Luke- "I warn you not to underestimate my power."
Also, Anakin was turning to the dark side while saying this, and according to the video, so was Luke when he threatened and lied to Jabba.
+Tom A Illuminati Confirmed...
+Tom A There's no balance. Balance in Star Wars is a myth. It's just Lucas needing an excuse to tell the same story twice.
@@jimslav6973 No... that's not it. He wants characters to mirror each other. It is actually a writing technique. He stories are nothing like each other, if you ignore the sequels.
Luke had more lines in the trailers than the movies... XD
That is so true!
yeah
+NinjaChicken Star Wars 8 confirmed..? Meh...I doubt it. They're too old for this shit.
+xxKriscbxx Did you see the movie? If so you would know there is gonna be an episode 8.
+cokeymoster Yes! it will be a trilogy
"When has Yoda ever been wrong"
Literally every movie he was in but ok
My thoughts exactly. He was a hypocrite in the Prequels, preaching peach but practicing war. This is why the Jedi Order fell, and this is why Luke is so disillusioned in The Last Jedi. The Legacy of the old Jedi Order was failure.
*"You love Padme and saw visions of her dying? Well just love her less lmao"*
Honestly though
Most Jedi that isn't Obi Wan amd Qui Gon was kind of a hypocrite
@Nana Akwesi Atta Mensah I agree
@@WatchVidsMakeLists lol peach & war
"I warn you not to underestimate my power"
Where have I heard that before...
Don’t try it
The Vader defending the Emperor scene always left me feeling a bit odd.
After only 34 years I've finally figured out why, he may not have been protecting the Emperors life but rather was protecting his son from falling to the dark side.
I love this!!!
I think so too, i also think Anakin initially never wanted to turn to the dark side, but he got baited by "nightmares/visions" of his dying lover (forgot her name, lol) and the promise of palpatine of learning how to cure/prevent/cheat death. Since he already did all those atricious things, killing the jedi order's new generation etc, there was no turning back, but i think he did regret everything (ironically a very strong negative emotion), leading up to him protecting his son from making the same mistake(s) as he did.
Holy shit I never even put that kind of thought it into that one decision but u just changed my perception of that entire final battle
Wait till you learn who Vaders father was, and in turn the grandfather of Luke, if you don't know already?
Holy fuck your right
This seems too obvious
WHAT IF THIS IS WHAT JJ WANTS US TO THINK?
HE WANTS US TO THINK THIS IS THE TWIST SO THAT HE CAN TWIST US LIKE A PRETZEL DURING THE FILM
THAT GENIUS BASTARD
+sparkie1j thats what he thinks we might think.
Luke's story in this is kept in a "mystery box", that's what JJ wants, and that's all. This specific theory that Luke turned to the Dark Side, I have no doubt JJ and company LOVE and want and enjoy this Internet speculation. But it is "just a theory, an (Internet) Film Theory and too bad ass and controversial for the rather conventional Disney Company and JJ (overrated) Abrams.
+Jackson “ZombieNub” Huffstutler That's what he wants us to think to think about thinking.
Jackson Huffstutler but what if he wants you to think that we might think that we might think that thats the twist?
sparkie1j Think about it.
“ Seem like a stretch? ( laughs) it’s not!
It is DEFINITELY a stretch
"If the secret got out they would lose a ton of money."
Yeah because if we all knew what the sequel trilogy would've been like, we wouldn't have wasted money on tickets...
This ain't got shit on the Darth Jar Jar theory
Jar jar isn't the new emperor he is fucking shit
Ian McClain Well I mean, the Jar Jar theory is just so unexpected, this kinda is given how George (or someone, forget who) wanted episode 6 to end with Luke becoming a Sith.
right
+Ian McClain www.reddit.com/r/StarWars/comments/3qvj6w/theory_jar_jar_binks_was_a_trained_force_user
Both of the theories are so fucking flawed.
It's like poetry... It rhymes.
Jar Jar is the key to all this.
+Sam Cooper What's wrong with your face?
FUCK JAR JAR!
+Prince Thunderflare You know, he pretty much caused the Empire bto rise to power by being the deciding vote to put Palpatine in power. :/
Tael the Mask Salesman So did Padme. A lot of people gave him power because they were stupid.
JAR JAR JAR JAR JAR IS THE BEST SIIITHH LORRRD EVER!
Best plot twist ever is
LUKE BEING KYLO REN
It's impossible.
LOL
that would have made things.......akward
Who watching in 2020 and has seen episode 9 and is laughing there heads off at this theory.
PS: still a good theory MatPat
STFU
palpatine cloning himself lol
more importantly: whos watching and still waiting for that reeses mini matpat offered us at the start?
yep

this is so painful to watch after seeing the movie
that twist thing you were talking about matpat, ya he did that to even you. good job.
I know right? I was watching this and this is just what jj abrams wants you to think.
+William Washburn
I think if Luke had turned to the Dark Side, he wouldn't have spent the last 10+ years hiding from everyone; including The First Order. I personally think Luke doesn't believe himself worthy of being called a Jedi Master after Ben turned to the Dark Side, and thinks it's too dangerous to allow himself to train and possibly fail other students. So in shame and disgust he goes into exile.
+Scuffy P Maybe he did at one time... but we still don't know about now.
I know right? Rip Han

"How many times have we seen Yoda wrong? I can think of two instances:
1. He was wrong about Ashoka Tano's trial
2. Wrong about Emperor Palpatine

+Reid F the clone wars is canon
+Tesco Lemon Bleach no the cgi clone wars show is
Wrong about Anakin. Wrong about his own ability to beat palpatine.
It is canon, along with rebels, and Ahsoka is in rebels, and ventress is dead
“Emperor Palpatine’s soul was reborn into a clone”
This sounds very familiar
Everyone's bitching about how bad and wrong this theory is.
Meanwhile I'm just wishing it actually happened.
Lol
+katmanxrocks444 It still might have....let's be honest.

The question is still unanswered, there is no context as to what exactly happened to him, we have to wait till episode 8 next year
Well he is quite wrong i wonder if he watched the other movies or just resurch but he fled the scence cause he failed the order but not by betraying it but accidently had someone betray it
Just makes me want to say...
BOY WERE THEY WRONG!!!

This sounds slightly similar to Luke's character in Last Jedi... sort of
I understand what you mean but it’s not that Luke becomes a Sith. It just means he’s failed at being a Jedi
Man, looking back on how this latest trilogy has played out, I gotta say Matt's theories would have made for way better stories than what we got!
*slightly better stories. His ability to come up with the plot is excellent. His choice of words used to tell the story could use a bit of work. For reference, pause the video and read the dialogue left in the scrolling teleprompter.
Just came back from December 18th, the movie is pretty heavy.
Wow
tell us more marty

Is it as good as the original movies, and much better than the prequels?

God dammit jar jar
6:03 WOW!!! Yoda calling someone old, now that's something
What about the alternate ending where Luke takes of Vader’s helmet and puts it on and says “now I am Vader”
Another thing to add: Luke said "Be careful not to underestimate my power." In Revenge of the Sith, Anakin says "You underestimate my power."
Legomansam52 he really didn't have the high ground tho

Be careful not to underestimate my power= don’t forget to underestimate my power

I can't be the only one pissed the new republic were completely wiped out in 30 bloody seconds.
SPOILERS
Yeah this movie was great and all but I feel like the battle scenes weren't as great because throughout all of them, someone was making a joke and it took away from the original battles, where it was really serious and epic
+Faux King Surley the New republic has more than 6 planets... Probably New Republic in this system got wiped out but what about the other systems?
Lukaszplgrom Usually the republic has tended to populate a small number of "core" planets with there main government/population. Its likely the three planets destroyed were the bulk of the republic.
Faux King Sure they made a huge blow to the republic but I refuse to believe that entire republic was wiped out. They better make the survivors from the other Republic system join the Resistance so that Resistance have more than few troops and X wings and we actually see some ground vehicles as well as Republic ships.
Lukaszplgrom You're right there are likely surviving outposts ect and ships scattered around.
Me watching this video and it has been for over a minute and realize
Omg its "Friends"
Maybe Luke is a gray Jedi?
What do Star Wars fans call themselves?
"Right." We call ourselves "right."
Only because Arrogant Douche Suckers was already taken by the GOP. Oh snap, a two for one burn!
Saro Lucero
I thought that was *your* name
please stop.
if i may be real for a moment i would take dark side training because its mor badass than the light side but after completeing my training i would indiscriminantly kill light and dark to create my own order and cleanse both sides bc i havent seen a single morrally decent jedi
Arch magician oliver yoda, obi wan, qui gun, ahsoka, and that weird named Jedi swordsmaster who was the guardian of the Jedi libary( the secret one I mean.) Plo koon, Ayala secura, shaak ti. Do I need to say more. Also finally remembered the other guy cin'dralic. Or at something close to that.
this theory could still be true, luke only appeared for 5 seconds and he didn't look happy to see Rey.
True true
You know that kylo ren is ben solo he even showed his face
uuh yeah and your point is ?, Luke could still be in the dark side just not with Ren, why would he be with Ren Luke is obviously more powerful with the time given.
+razielimm the film does go at lengths to out right state and imply that like is not on the dark side... and his face looking that way doesnt imply that hes mad/upset/or sad to see rey its more of a world weary and just plain tired look to me as if hes not ready to get out there and train someone yet... and as i said earlier the movie goes to lengths to say he is a jedi not a sith so im in the "hes light side camp" til im proven otherwise in either of the next two movies
but thats mostly characters speculating he's on the light side. I feel like the ending is open to interpretation, but lets just wait and see.
Anyone watching in 2019 knows he was so far from the truth😂
he wasn't far from the truth. they changed the plot after this video.
@@adityanambidi5129 not because they saw this video but because they switched JJ with Rian
MatPat: how often is Yoda wrong?
…
I'm not sure this is right. A big point for you is that Luke seems to be going the same route Anakin did, the dark side is starting to take control of him. But what is it's not? Remember, Anakin didn't just join the sith from being angry and feeling emotion in general but also because he was taught that it's wrong, almost like something to be ashamed of, that he *must* follow the jedi code but at the same time he sees that same code broken by jedi masters, just look at master Windu he tried to arrest Palpatine based on superficial evidence and then tried to make Anakin kill him. Anakin knew this was wrong, he knew that Palpatine should have been given a fair trial and this was more or less ruining what he saw the jedi as being. The great jedi master Mace Windu was breaking the jedi code and this is why at the end of the movie Anakin says that from his point of view the jedi are evil, they were hypocrites and breaking their only rules while also enforcing them on Anakin.
Now look at Luke, he never knew about the jedi code, he was more or less told he shouldn't get angry and stuff(and also wasn't restricted from other things such as love) but not to the degree Anakin was and unlike Anakin, Luke never had the masters he looked up to break the code so he wholly saw the jedi as the good guys. Then we get to the end where Luke uses his anger to defeat Vader in battle and Palpatine seems to think that this means Luke has given himself up to the dark side but he didn't, to Luke he kind of couldn't see how something that simple would completely change someone and make them an evil person, he wasn't corrupted by the power but also didn't see any reason to avoid it like the jedi code tells you to. He was at a middle ground, not truly a jedi as he breaks the code but does not allow himself to be corrupted by the power. If Luke were in similar situations to Anakin in which he saw first hand that the jedi themselves were becoming corrupt perhaps he too would have started to favour the dark side and see them as right as they don't restrict emotion as the jedi do. But Luke never had that huge burden of trying to suppress his emotions, he never saw corruption of the jedi, at the end of the day Luke not properly being trained as a jedi is what saved him, unlike Anakin he has no reason to join the dark side because he has no reason to oppose the jedi, he sees the sith as evil while for Anakin, being close to the jedi and seeing what the jedi order was becoming, it wasn't quite so night and day. So really I don't see Luke being a sith lord at all because why would he? What reason does Luke have to join the sith when he sees them as evil and the jedi as good?
+QuakeGamer632 you make a lot of very good points. But the question still stands: why would ol' J.J. try to hide him from us?
SunsetBear Because Luke is the hide and seek champion of the Star Wars universe.
SunsetBear I mean the universe, it's just set in a galaxy far, far away.
+QuakeGamer632 "bring balance to the force" - balance is the key phrase introduced in the prequel trilogies. The logical play out is that there should one type of force user - balancing the ying and yang that the dichotomy of the light/dark structure presents. Luke's absence is less a question about whether he is light or dark, rather it is has he maintained control over his emotions so as not to be ruled by them. Your point about the jedi order is spot on, there are hints of this internal struggle for the jedi in the prequels. I think Luke's absence is more a promotional element then one of real substance to the movies. Though you need to ask why does each trilogy start on a desert world and the finding of a force hero? If we take the cyclical nature into consideration then perhaps Luke's absence is more akin to Yoda - he failed to do something and therefore hid from his failure - his nephew being a sith is the probable failure.
no. he didnt say to spare palpatine because of the jedi code. he even screams it out, I need him to live. palpatine fully convinced him that the only way to save padme was through some trick that only palpatine knew.
Both Film Theory AND CinemaSins put out a Star Wars video today? HYPE!
Ikr
+AciDic BliTzz This can't be accidental. Let's make a theory and then count the sins in it !
+AciDic BliTzz They're riding the hype train for all the people searching for Star Wars info who may not already be subscribed. They've done the same thing with most of the last several major movie releases. It's a barnacle tactic.
+Juxtavarious barnacle tactic? I have no idea hat that means but I like it

Matpat: *talks about complicated math*
Matpats teachers: We’ve taught you well
Man, Star Wars 22: Darth Luke Awakens is my favorite!
I saw the movie last night. He isn't evil.
Same but just like a hour ago
+Gumpy Dragon i just watched it an hour ago too. i dont have a weapon!!!
He's the trailer he's the trailer too
+Foxy Studios in
+Foxy Studios he wasnt in the trailer
You know the sad part is that we may not even find this out for sure in the first movie, they may keep it for a secret twist to keep people thinking even until the 2nd or 3rd movie. I can see it now:
"Don't you want to know what happened to Skywalker?"
"they told me enough, they told me you killed him!"
"No. I am Skywalker."
"That's impossible!"
"Search your feelings you know it to be true!"
"NOOOOOO"
+Mr. Person haha, I can totally see that! The reason Hamill isn't in the promos for this movie is that he isn't even in this movie.
+Mr. Person Yup, _IF_ this is true, they will keep it secret, like Palpatine was (to the jedies).
***** Well, rebuilding the Jedi order is what he did in the EU books, he started a Jedi Academy on Yavin IV and the books were about the student's adventures and them growing to be full Jedi. Was a pretty good series.
+Mr. Person Maybe, The Dark figure-like Darth Vader is actually Luke himself trying to mimic his fathers ways!
Man old 2015 game/film theory with the music the voice and the editing have a lot of nostalgia.
Oh how none of us new how horrible the sequel trilogy was going to be
Who else is watching this 2016 and facepalming
Dude, we don't know if he is wrong. Especially because all of the build up on the last scene, it could still happen. Nothing to facepalm about.
+Spiked Blueshell We do know its wrong, well we know that he's not kylo ren, that's han/leia's son. We also know he doesn't turn evil in this particular movie.
When I watched the film, I was disappointed with what they did with Luke in it. They did almost nothing.
+Spiked Blueshell the only one who should be face palming is you, we already know who Kylo Ren is and it's pretty obvious he's not evil. Everyone knows that he's going to train Ren to become a Jedi knight.
Me
On one hand, I can't think of old Luke as anything other than what he is in the extended universe
On the other hand, Mark Hamill *kills* it as a villain
+DarkLordLink I thought you were gonna do a robot hand joke
Luke isn't bad. Reasons:
Luke is commentating during the trailer.
He touches R2-D2.
There is a frame showing Mark Hamil. It's small.
Kylo Rin takes his helmet.
on one arm, i have a hand.
on the other....
ummmm
Luke is doing more voiceovers in the trailers than some might think...
That would have been a better story than the one we got in The Last Jedi.
I know someone is gonna woosh me for this, but Luke becoming a power hungry Sith is better than Luke losing hope?
_I accept my fate._
somebody should make a fan film trilogy about that
@@night-seeker666 I think so, him turning the most evil person in the galaxy good again, then suddenly losing hope for everyone makes no sense. But him taking the same path as anakin is interesting.
I assume this was JJ Abrams' original plan before Rian Johnson came along and... yeah
0:05 this is what it said:
"It is an exiting time for film geeks.
A new Star Wars is coming to theaters.
Life once again has meaning as
"The force awakens" nears its release
Boy do I sure love me a good Star War.
Imma Star War-ing fool.OH hey, do
you guys want some , like, Reese's Mini's?
How much smaller are they gonna make
those things, anyway? There's like 80
different sizes of them peanut butter cups.
OH CR*P, right, star TOURS. is this new
one gonna have Yoda? No? Is Yoda dead?
Right, he dead. But dude didn't ever the cool
Jedi death like other people. He just kinda
wussed out and keeled over in a dirty swamp.
Yo Yoda das one weak death game you
got going on there. Step up yo' game, brah!
Whatever, the voice actor's still getting
work on the Muppets show, so it's all good.
Oh cr*p dude for this episode we had to
watch all the freaking prequels again in order
to make this episode. DEAR LORD Jar Jar!
The worst... THE WORST!!
Like, GEEZ, dude. Also, NO he is NOT a Sith
lord. STOP IT! Stop with your silly theorizing!
That is OUR job! And if anyones a Sith Lord, it's
Luke! OOOOOOOHHH #SPOILERS!!"
Edit: and one more short paragraph oops
I have a theory
At the start Stat Wars Ep 8, Rey and Luke star at each other and Rey says
"so, this is the famous Luke Skywalker. Where have you been all this time"
Luke responds with "It's complicated, the inner turmoil ive faced is something no one should have to go through"
Rey then touches him and tells him "It'll be alright"
They then proceed to fuck in all sorts of positions.
BUT THAT'S JUST A THEORY.....
A PORNO THEORY!
Oh. Well that's really something...
+Turtle Soup um question how do you know Luke and Rey are related?!?!?!?
+Turtle Soup might be related
Rey is lukes daughter. i bet you my life on that. it also makes this insest porn....lol
A STAR WARS PORNO THEORY
Sadly matpat I don't think your theory answers anything since Luke only has like 5 seconds
Of screen time
But they did kinda build up the moment as a "yesss we finally found the hero" moment... Wouldnt it be awesome if after that dramatic build up he actually turned out to be evil xD
Movie: "Here is your long sought after hero!"
Audience: "YAAAYYYY!"
Movie: "Psych! xP >_< >=D"
IDK: although, it's JUST a theory. A FILM THEORY
I want a refund
Emperer clones himself... Emperer is Snoke confirmed
Wellll… this aged well
This theory might have been wrong, but it proves that Luke's confrontation with Ben Solo in his hut during the flashbacks of The Last Jedi was completely in character and Rian Johnson really understands Star Wars.
You can't call this theory a good idea and then say there's no way Luke would have drawn his lightsaber on his nephew. Either has has darkness in him still after Episode VI or he doesn't. And it makes so much more thematic sense given all the evidence presented in this video that he did
I'm sad now realizing what could have been😔
Cody Roessler me to😢
Why would you want Luke to turn evil?! It makes sense character arc wise, but ruins a perfectly good hero. The ending that we got is the one that he and everyone deserved.
Bema Osei-Kwabena I wanted Luke to go to the dark side
Bema Osei-Kwabena the films ruined his character anyway might as well have done it in a cooler way, mark hamil said himself he thought they made every wrong choice when making his story arc .
@@sauldogeman2816 Because at this point he WASN'T a hero. The movie would've been tremendously better if he had become a Sith. The only way it would've worked as him as a hero is if they had followed the events of the Yuuz'an Vong war. I'm sorry, but the Empire coming back stronger than after the Battle of Endor is utter nonsense.
Knock knock
Whose there
Well definitely not Han Solo
HAH! GOT EM

*Saw it
4:56 At this point, the seed for the "Jedi are Evil" two part theory was planted!
Amazing, Every word you just said was wrong -Luke
Well, I think Luke is more like Qui-Gon, a grey jedi, which don't have one real side, moe like a balance of both, since being a jedi is like being a stone, so a grey jedi has feelings, but is not compleately evil.
+ElZamo92 Word!
+ElZamo92 I completely agree. It's called "the great jedi", an idea from KOTR. A balance of both the light and the dark. Luke wanted to create a new order, perhaps he has learned both sides can be used for good.
+Russell Paul the original jedaii order stressed balance between the light and dark sides of the force. If a jedaii were to fall into to much dark or light they would be sent offworld alone to meditate until they achieved balance again
+Lorentz Khan then there was a split in the order between those who thought the order should only use light or only used dark which formed the sith and jedi
+ElZamo92 cool, then on episode VIII Luke becomes a white wizard like Gandalf, and start kicking asses and taking names with the First Order. Sweet as.
IDK, the fact that this idea has already been planted seems reason enough for Jar Jar Abrams to not include it.
No, Luke is just a Grey Jedi, like Qui-Gonn Jinn and Mace Windu. The Grey Jedi have a code as well.
"There is no Dark Side, nor a Light Side
There is Only the Force
I will do what I must to keep the balance
The balance is what keeps me together
There is no good without evil, but evil must not be allowed to flourish
There is passion, Yet peace
Serenity, Yet emotion
Chaos, Yet order
I am the wielder of the flame, the protector of balance
I am the holder of the torch, lighting the way
I am the keeper of the flame, soldier of balance
I am a guardian of balance
I am a Gray Jedi."
Hmm. Balance to the force? Why does that sound familiar? Something something prequels, something something Anakin Sykwalker, something something destiny.
Qui-Gonn used Anakin as the tool of bringing true balance to the force, but Palpatine corrupted Anakin too much. He manipulated his fear of losing his family so much that even Mace Windu, a Grey Jedi, couldn't stop him. Mace Windu is the reason why Grievous was a chunk of spare parts BTW, that's not what his species looks like. He's basically the Kaleesh equivalent to Darth Vader.
Nope, I think that the big bad Sith Lord is Mara Jade Skywalker. And Luke is so torn at the thought of killing his wife he allows the Empire to flourish again because of it. Just like his father did in the prequels.
+Remlap1223 See, this is something I can get behind without the silly, stupid absolutism of the Jedi and without the, ah... hm... how do I phrase this? Without the inevitability of George Lucas's Sith always being super evil. I feel like this could work very well.
Luke indeed fits as a gray jedi. So does Starkiller, and he DIED.
no such thing, not cannon, but even before retcon
+sawyer7as the grey jedi were introduced in the knights of the old republic. Revan, in the game, is possibly one of, if not the strongest jedi to ever live. Being a jedi and falling to the darkside during the mandalorian wars he emerged, different. Feeling the views of both the light and dark were 2 sides of the same coin he projected both. Knowing that the evil of the sith shouldn't rule, but the galaxy needed the evil, to keep balance. There can be no good with out evil. No peace without war. The grey jedi strive to keep this balance. But as you say, i don't think it is cannon, but it could be.
Windu was not a gray jedi just because he used bits of the dark side, he used them for good and betterment of his skills and understanding.. And kept it in control...

We laugh at this now, but many people believed this.
I don't laugh at it because though the main point of the theory ended up being wrong, there is still a lot of valid information that explains many of Luke's actions in Abram's sequel trilogy. =]
Yeah, someone who recently saw the original trilogy for the first time pretty much said to me that Luke seemed to lean to the dark side. And she asked me if Luke would eventually turn. ^^ To be honest it makes more sense than what Luke does in the new canon.
It would have been way more interesting, and even the original script for rotj was about Luke becoming the new Vader
I know I didn't
It was a pretty good theory
Am I the only one who read the opening credits it’s hilarious 😂
Thought I would watch the first video I watched of matpat. I’m gonna miss him. Have a happy retirement matpat. You deserve a break.
Man same. I watched this when my dad and I were preparing to see this movie, I didn't realize till years later that this was MatPat.
no jar jar is evil hes the sith lord
+ch0c0 m0nkey jar jar is pretty bad stuff, but not in an evil way
+Eduardo U. You haven't been listening. I'm not gonna spoil it for you just do a search
Alexander Howarth
i did, not that good of a theory actually.
Alexander Howarth
i mean it's interesting but not as good as that luke is the evil mastermind
producers confirmed that jar jar isn't going to be in star wars
best part of the movie the 4 seconds of luke ":|"
+Eros arthur true
They actually had Luke's actor stay for the entire time so no one would know how long he would be in the movie.
Like SRSLY!!!!
+hOI On the plus side he probably got payed for all that time and could just sit and practice lines for his voice acting work.
+Eros arthur It was no doubt best part of the movie
I love how the subtitles at the beginning say “Non-copyrighted Star Wars Theme”
He had about as much screen time as Tarkin in ep3
You're really good at making stories, not theories.
Lol dude this kid got everything wrong
+PetCreeper Are you an idiot or something, it's his theory it it's not always 100% correct. Do you even know what theory means?
Thank You
+Angelo Sales Well. This last year his "theories" are based on controversies of the same logic as "Bread is actually made of WATER". They are oftentimes useless or plain stupid. They are just stories he makes up.
+PetCreeper His Neo isn't the One and Walter White being alive are absolutely horrible theories.
MatPat did you hear the theory on Jar Jar Binks being a sith force user?
+Charles Miller He did, if you slow down the fast-forwarded intro text, part of it says "Also, NO he is NOT a Sith Lord! Stop it with your silly theorizing! That is our job!"
+Charles Miller I believe in Darth Jar Jar
I like Jar Jar! He's kinda annoying, but he's funny! Right? Why does everyone dislike him so much?
+Lawrence Calablaster ^
+Lawrence Calablaster Finally someone else who agrees....
I love the pre-sequels so much and they always get put down
Chase Koenig Disney saw how hated the prequels were and decided to destroy the whole Star Wars lore...
What?!
(Well meesa Darth jar jar and yousa big doo-doo dis time)
Take a chill pill everyone! I get it, he was wrong, but that's why it was a theory since it wasn't confirmed as the answer. He never said that he was 100% sure Luke was with the dark side, he was just trying to predict how Episode VII could've shocked us all.
I AM CR0W
Dude I'm just saying I only rewatched this to laugh histaricly at the theory I could care less about him being wrong
I AM CR0W in the books he does fall to the dark side so...
I AM CR0W I supported the theory... :,(
+I AM CR0W to be honest my my mum dad grandpa and grandma and my twin uncles one of which is actually in number 8 all thort the same thing
I AM CR0W but, Luke might have joined the dark side, then become a jedi.
2018 now and now I watch this and say are u sure about that
Parker Panda it's not 2018 yet idiot
2018 was like 5 hours ago
Exatly he posted this a week ago
Ikr
the original ending for episode vi actually sounds a lot like episode viii
I enjoy seeing the absurdity of old theories 😂
I saw the preview of this video and the intro subtitles were “Non copyrighted Star Wars theme song” I’m so proud MatPat
also good to pint out is that after both luke and anakin state 'don't underestimate my power' they both get owned.
+Blackdeath17 and then Anakin becomes Darth Vader and becomes one of the most powerful sith lords of all time!
But eventually gets beaten by his son
Mythyxx I grammaer all da time.
+Mythyxx grammar...this is youtube lol. only idiots care about grammar. still i understood everything and so did you as you corrected him. please mr. teacher stfu^^
Sith wins, no question. 17 days people.
+deathskilledreaper Calling it now: every force user dies. Balance indeed.
+AtomicBananaPress if there are more jedi than sith then the jedi must die... if there are more sith than jedi then the sith must die... thats the balance
If everyone's gone that's true balance. No ripples in the pond, so to speak.
it comes out on my birthday 😁
+AtomicBananaPress Well, Anakin was prophezised to bring balance to the force. And at the time, the force was rather dominated by Light-Side users.
4:58 *Omg.. Get out of my head!!! I was thinking the same thing when you were reading all those off!!!!.. Def cult like!!* 😂🤣😉👌👏💯
Mattpat: Luke is EVLE

There is no ignorance
There is KNAWLEDGEEE

Here in my garage, with my new tie fighter here. But you know what I like more than defeated the Sith? KNOWLEDGE

It kind becomes a right theory if you watch Star Wars 8
Luke is evil!
Thank goodness that is the case
It would have kinda been a cool idea like MatPat's ideas are always cool and on occasions there cooler than what was actually in the movie.
I love how in the begging you specify in the captions the theme is non copyrighted
I love what MatPat has on the screen when the "film background info" is rolling!
if you havent seen the movie, I know someone who dies!!!!

Traitor!
+AG Photography Come at least put up a spoiler warning.
Han Solo dies 😢
Tech Fanboy
NUUUUUU (I saw the movie anyway.)
Well, Luke has only like 1 minute of screen time in the force awakens, this theory might be true in the next movie.
SPOILERS!!!!!!! It isn't a true theory :P
i know and its sad how #Blank gets killed by his own #Blank in the huge ass #Blank
+Tommy Toivanen Don't forget that #Blank got fucked up by #Blank who never used a lightsaber before XD
+Tommy Toivanen I know what your talking about and that's just a rumor
The blanks are Han Solo and his son
Watching this on the future, this had more potential than what they actually did. Trying to take him down, realizing he's not a sith, but just hates everyone, could be neat.
Hey I liked the prequel trilogy not as much as the original trilogy but it was still pretty good
You forgot one thing Matt.
Jar Jar is a sith overlord
+Yoshikage “Bite Za Dusto” Kira キラークイーン He said it in the beginning and said with the yellow text. NO JAR JAR IS NOT EVIL :). that is what he said.

Bullshit.
Jar Jar will take over the universe. It's a more sound theory than "Luke is evil".

Okay. I just said what matt was saying or the person writing the yellow text :)
