In legend there is a jedi versjon of sith lightning. is known as Electric judgment or emerald lightning. it manifested as yellow-orange, green, white or golden. The difference is the jedi appmication came from a sense of determined justice. This is a forbidden techniques because of it similarity to sith. But a few jedi did study it jedi master Plo koon and Luke skywalker. Being the last jedi does not make you stronger Rey is just that strong. Darth vender can not use sith lightning because of his severed arms. Robotic hands can't summon the sith lightning. The only other person we have seen use sith lightning is count Dooku.

Also quick correction,John boyega(finn) didn't hate the fans,he hated how his character was handled especially in the last 2 films..
Also Eric that premise for Ep 10 was scrapped a long time ago,Disney has a dumb habit of announcing films and scrapping them later

J. J. Abrams, the director of episode 7, set up a lot of things and mysteries, but there was no overall predefined goal. This director likes "mystery box" storytelling, where he sets up a mystery and then tries to figure it out later. The director of episode 8 Rian Johnson then took those set ups and had to deal with them, and he also tried to move the movies in a different direction, in some was successfully, in some not so much, but overall there was a split in the fanbase. Then Disney had another director ready, but went back to J. J. Abrams to "fix" the episode 9 and to try to "unite" the fans and make Disney a lot of money, they made a lot of cheap decisions they thought would please the fanbase, while at the same time trying to please the racist and homophobic markets to maximaze the revenue.
There was not original outline of the series. Palpatine actor was surprised that he was casted again because as he and George Lucas intended Palpatine to be dead, and the Kylo Ren/Ben Solo actor signed up on the movies with the assumption he'd end up the "bad guy" till the end of the movies, not turning "good"
This trilogy is just a mismanagement hell, with people not having any real plan, making things up as they go, while panicking executives try to please fanbase, which lets be hones, is not always easy to deal with.
There's a lot of more issues with the story than what you've noticed, but I get it, you can't pick on everything on the first view, especially if you don't have the lore in details in your memory, like a lot of fans did.

I can never tell which of the last 2 movies i like the least. Like Episode 8 just feels like it hates Star Wars and Episdoe 9 feels like it course corrected so hard that its just pandering.

This movie has its up and downs but i don’t see it as a horrible thing tbh, it has its moments where you actually get chills and get emotional. I love watching you guys react to these movies! I hope you get to watch The Mandalorian, honestly its one of my favorite things Disney has made.

The Clone Wars shouldn’t have to explain why the Clones turned on all the Jedi without a second thought or why the Jedi don’t trust Anakin in ROTS……but they do. The purpose of Star Wars TV shows has always been to fix bad writing.

The clones were given an order the moment palpatine was found out. Also the jedi were given fake leads on who created the clones, so there isn't an explanation needed there. Anakin in the movies had an attachment to padme and was unpredictable, so that covers why they didn't trust him to be a jedi master. Shows can certainly expand on concepts from other media, but it definitely shouldn't have to be explained in that way.

RAAAGHHH, time for my mini rant! There’s no mistaking these movies have scenes that I love, especially 7, but overall their reputation was marred by a whole bunch of BTS bs, from each movie being directed by a different person(leaving the trilogy feeling disjointed as 8 & 9 spend half their runtime trying to “fix” the what the current director didn’t like from the previous movie), to international racism causing Disney to pivot from their original story and minimize the roll of Finn. The Finn thing hurt the most as a kid because the idea of a Black MC in Star Wars was my everything at the time, but since China hates black people(seriously, look up episode 7’s China poster vs US), John Boyega, who was contracted to be a “main” character in 3 movies, was reduced to a glorified supporting cast member who just yells “REYYYYY!” .
And that Gadies and Lentelmen, is why despite the cool scenes, I’ll always hate 8 & 9.

It’s truly gotten to the point for me where I just consider the legends as my sequels. So many better stories and characters and much better characterizations of the OT characters! They all grow into very successful and influential people!

This movie was truly the final nail in the coffin for Disney Star Wars for me! I hated this movie to no end! I hated that Palpatine returned because it was clearly a desperate attempt to save the trilogy and it only failed, and the ONLY explanation we got was “Somehow Palpatine returned” which is such crap! Rey being his granddaughter was just out of no where, and her just naming herself a skywalker was just really weak. Finn suddenly isn’t so special anymore because apparently more stormtroopers rebelled. And Leia’s death wasn’t very emotional because Carrie Fisher was already dead. So much I hated about this movie, I decided to look to the legends books and now I consider those as my sequels because the stories and the characters are so much better it’s not even funny!

You missed out on some of the best Star Wars content ever then. Solo, Rise of Skywalker and the Acolyte are the only bad Star Wars media Disney has made out of 5 movies, 1 short film, 12 shows, 2 YouTube micro series and 9 video games. This of course isn’t counting books, comics(I wouldn’t read them regardless of how good they are), adaptations of previous stories or things that are blatantly non canon that were just made for fun like that Lego Christmas special they did.

I’ve seen the other shows but what I meant was most of the stuff Disney puts out, starting with the sequels, isn’t canon for me. Like I love rogue one, andor, and mandalorian, and Ahsoka, but these days anything post ROTJ I look to the legends rather than the canon

No surprise, people didn’t even like that he came back as a clone in the legends comic dark empire. Him returning in the canon now makes it seem like Anakin’s sacrifice was all for nothing and the chosen one prophecy was not fulfilled, plus now it seems like everything that they fought for and accomplished in the original trilogy was all for nothing because they ended up exactly where they started all because of Palpatine!
