I'm no star wars nerd or expert, but why did they just retreat to far off planets. This would be like Spartacus and crixus throwing in the towel and scrubs being lead by scrubs

They knew they were beat. When they missed that shot to kill the Emperor they were done. They were in hiding helping to prepare for the rebellion. And Yoda knows that the children will beat the Emperor.

To add on, Obi-Wan and Yoda were in no shape to take on the Empire. Palpatine's smear campaign worked so well that no one knew who or what a Jedi was after about 20 years or so.

All they could do was wait and hope that the twins would be enough to overthrow the Emperor.

As for their depleted skills, they realistically stopped physical training for 20 years, so that would be like saying Terry Bradshaw looks horrible to play in today's modern NFL....but he would still be a more accurate passer than 90% of the population....

So. Cal
Ok brehs I seen two of these when I was a kid but never got heavily into it or the story line. Now tell me, how should I watch these? I know they are out of order in terms of storyline But should I watch it on the order they were release or watch it in the order of the storyline? Also what is the list of the movies in which they were released?

They explained it in the old movies, and showed it in Episode III - I mean, it's all there :patrice:

The physicality - Obi-Wan, being a normal 'humanoid', was probably in his prime at Episode III. He focused 20 years on becoming stronger in the force. Yoda was dying by the time of the older movies.

Obi-Wan learning that forcepower was the smart move. It helped blow up the Death Star, lead Luke to Yoda and he made sure Luke would confront the Emperor.

Yoda I understand was crushed by seeing those young kids killed. Obi had no excuse.

Count Dooku also didnt stop training for 20 years. Remember the Empire was actively searching for and killing the remaining Jedi. An easy way to get detected and killed is to continue your jedi training.

Yoda didn't even want to train Luke because he was too old

the logic would've been for them to escape with them and going to hiding while training them

all the events of the first star wars are by chance, if luke never got the droids, obi-wan would have never did anything but die alone lmao

obi-wan was there the whole time, he could've been training look from birth lmao

the shyt doesn't make any sense

just like in the first star wars they act like the jedi were legends that few people knew about it, Vader was even taunted for his "religion"

but in the prequels they are a huge presence in the government and known throughout the galaxy

20 years pass and they act like they never existed

extremely dumb

Most of the people living in the galaxy have never seen a Jedi before. Yeah there were a lot of them on Coruscant because thats where the Galactic Senate and Jedi Temple was located but all around the galaxy, they werent around. There are easily over 100 billion planets in a galaxy, add in moons and you have an absurd number of possible settlements. There were about 10k people that could be considered jedi at the time of the clone wars. Thats 1 for every 10 million planets.

So you have these crazy sounding stories about people following a religion you never heard of (witnessed) combined with your government telling you its a bunch of bullshyt, and you can see how most of the galaxy acts like they never existed.

The Jedi were regulars of the galactic senate, they were brought in to solve a trade dispute

the order had been around for THOUSANDS OF YEARS AND WERE LOCATED AT THE CAPITAL OF THE REPUBLIC

All the Senators and major players knew what a jedi was

Everyone new what a jedi was

I said everyone on Coruscant knew about them. Im talking about regular folks living on a random moon of planet 10 billion of in the middle of nowhere who by the way are not part of the republic. You got people right now who dont know who the governor of their state is! To them the jedi were just religious fanatics with laser swords that they read about.
