In Wolf's last outing as host, he joined MauLer and Rags in taking a look at Nerrel's video "A Guide to The Last Jedi (for the Star Wars Fanbase)," a video that was being held up even by *Last Jedi* detractors as a solid defense. Nerrel recalled how the prequels had been poorly received, but found *The Last Jedi*'s reception even worse, or at least more confusing, since critics mostly loved it. He specified that "critics" referred to "\*actual critics, not trash YouTubers like me," which the gang could only hope was a joke, with MauLer recalling how YouTuber Jeremy Jahns had *accidentally* become a RottenTomatoes critic. Nerrel read out a fast-paced disclaimer stating his video was merely one fan's opinion meant to entertain those with senses of humor who are mature enough to not engage in harassment or boycotting. Rags found it odd to suggest that a boycott could not be done by a mature adult, Wolf similarly finding it odd to put boycotts in the same realm as harassment, but MauLer got ahead of the disclaimer by asserting that this stream was just 3 fans' opinions made to entertain those with a sense of humor

Nerrel described how after the prequels, fans wanted *Star Wars* to be more like the Original Trilogy, but he doubted that they really knew what that means, since the Original Trilogy was made under completely different circumstances because *Star Wars* was silly back then, a point bolstered by behind-the-scenes footage of the actors calling aspects of the movie strange, like Chewbacca having fur. Rags asked what movie could not be described the same way, figuring that something held as being more serious like *Game of Thrones* likely looks equally as strange without context and that Shitty Plot Summaries is a whole genre of joke, and MauLer added that if a metal man and a weird hairdo were the bar for silly then surely the Prequels were in the same boat. They found his description of *Star Wars* as so original it looped back to being original somewhat weak, once again wondering if the same could not be said of any story. Nerrel put forth that *Star Wars* became sacred to people and so now they think they know better than the filmmakers, something Wolf found to be entirely possible, remembering that George R R Martin had had fans help him put together *A World of Ice and Fire*. He figured any new movie would alienate people since everybody has their own interpretation of Star Wars, seemingly forgetting that *The Force Awakens* was almost universally well-liked upon release, arguing that *Empire Strikes Back* would be similarly maligned if it came out today, faux-whining about it including ghosts (when Obi-Wan was already a ghost in the previous film and there was now just a visual aspect to it), Vader being able to choke a man through the TV (they were on the same ship as each other, as opposed to Snoke who was a Hyperspace trip away from Hux when choking him), Han and Leia surviving in no atmosphere (they were inside a living thing), the space worm living where there is no food for it (it's an alien creature, we have no idea how its physiology works, and it's hardly relevant to the plot), and Vader being Luke's father ruining Luke's character (how?). Rags was amused to see yet another *Last Jedi* defense have to resort to just calling other movies bad

Nerrel brushed aside any criticisms of Force powers by explaining that what the Force even was changed throughout the production of the first movie, which MauLer could not care less about, since what matters is what ended up in the finished movie. He argued that the first film's Force powers of making dragon noises (something only added in a later Special Edition), super reflexes, moving an object? (question mark included), and disappearing upon death made no sense together, without explaining why not, then went on that *Empire* added the new powers of telekinesis (which Vader used in the last movie), superhuman agility (Luke doing some frontflips), and seeing visions of the future, capping it off with the Emperor firing lightning in *Return of the Jedi*, none of which was really an issue to MauLer and Co since none of those contradicted anything previously shown. Nerrel concluded that the Force was just a plot device that could do whatever the plot wanted, arguing that Luke jumping 20 feet out of the carbon freezer only mattered as a stepping stone to him learning that that power wasn't everything, and that particular power was arbitrarily chosen to fit the layout of the room and had no other significance to the plot. MauLer argued that it literally does have an impact on the plot in the very scene he shows, and that regardless of the intent of adding that power, giving Luke that power now influences his character since having it will inform his actions going forward. Nerrel bemoaned what he saw as fans wanting the reverse now, with the story serving the Force, MauLer clarifying that the desire was not for it to *serve* the Force but just work within the confines of it, and Wolf noticing Chat pointing out nobody had a problem with Kylo's newly-introduced ability of holding a laser in midair. He scoffed at people being fine with Yoda becoming a ghost but not with him summoning lightning, something that has far more of an effect on the physical world, then bizarrely claimed that when Obi-Wan told Vader he would become more powerful if killed that that did not refer to anything he did in the Original Trilogy and must have instead been referring to lightning, apparently not thinking life after death was powerful enough, which Rags found doubly odd since afterwards he played a clip of Obi-Wan telling Luke he cannot interfere in his fight. He explained that Leia pulling herself through 0-gravity with the Force was nothing new, and got ahead of the counter that the issue was her surviving at all by saying "yes you can survive in space for a minute or two, I Googled it," but a quick Google of what he Googled showed his source contradicted him. Nerrel explained that Luke projecting at the end of the film rather than fighting was in line with his biggest achievement of refusing to fight Vader, the most Jedi thing he could do since a Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, and destroying the giant weapons of war attacking his friends would be a Sith thing to do. MauLer and Rags had to explain that in defending someone else you may have to swing a sword at someone else's sword, and asked what the point of a lightsaber even was if cutting things was inherently Sith. He decried people for caring that the power was "not in the rule book," then countered that Rian Johnson proved it actually was in the rule book, then bemoaned the haters for pointing out that the book Rian Johnson was claiming to be canon was not actually canon, since canon isn't real and all these books are all made up anyways. MauLer agreed that of course the fictional stories are all made up, but the issue was which sutff is considered to be part of the same set of stories, since those things can end up not fitting with each other. The gang found this whole segment even more ironic given he was simultaneously arguing *Star* *Wars* did not have to make sense while arguing that it made sense

Nerrel brushed aside the Star Wars Expanded Universe by claiming Lucas never cared for it, and when he sold it to Disney he created a division whose job was to make all stories going forward fit into canon, thus making *The Last Jedi* officially canon. This was punctuated with a clip of Yoda dancing to taunt Luke, which fell flat to MauLer and the gang since they were well aware *The Last Jedi* was officially canon and their issue was it did a bad job of it. He then undercut that point by arguing that even needing a committee to sign off on fantasy stories was a sign of not truly understanding the Force, raising the question of how someone is even meant to know what the Force is to begin with without knowing which stories are the ones actually describing it. Nerrel recounted how people disliked Midichlorians because they made the Force knowable, and argued that being able to write down what it does in a book does the same damage, though MauLer figured the bigger issue with Midichlorians was making them a measurable tangible thing raised the question of how anyone hides being a Jedi or Sith, and the mere fact that what they do is shown in the movies means what they do is a knowable thing. Nerrel concluded people didn't learn the importance of mystery, explaining that Vader was intentionally kept mysterious because he required no explanation. MauLer agreed that Vader didn't need an explanation, but one could make for a good story, and doubted that audiences don't appreciate mystery when *The Force Awakens* was nothing but mystery and they ate that up, only becoming upset when *The Last Jedi* answered them unsatisfactorily. Nerrel compared Snoke's lack of backstory to the Emperor's, to which MauLer retorted that the Original Trilogy started off with the Empire already in charge whereas Snoke entered a world where the good guys were in power and suddenly just undid that, Rags comparing it to a Jenga tower where the first block can be stacked any way but the second has to account for previous blocks. He went on that Snoke had less need for a backstory since he was just a copy of the Emperor, claiming his scars were evidence enough he had been disfigured chasing power like usual. MauLer found this odd since Vader and Palpatine were disfigured entirely different ways, and Rags realized by that metric Forest Whitaker's character from *Rogue* *One* must have also been evil and chasing power

Nerrel put forth that Kylo's was a story of the Force balancing itself, arguing the Jedi misunderstood that balance meant killing all the bad guys, despite that being the exact thing that brings peace at the end of the Original Trilogy. He then unveiled his now-infamous graph, which portrayed the bobbing heads of various Jedi and Sith pulling the Force into either the green above the line or the red below it. He posited that a lot of Jedi existing allowed Palpatine to become powerful and pull Anakin to the Dark Side to balance it out, the claim that more good people using the Force meant it would be easier for someone to just turn evil already being baffling to the roster. When the Jedi died off, Nerrel went on, Luke became more powerful as a result and was able to redeem Anakin and destroy the Sith, a statement made more ironic given that the official Lucasfilm canon he giddy-Yoda-danced about is now claiming Palpatine never died. He had thought ahead of that though, and explained that he left Palpatine off the graph until we know what the fuck is going in, which the gang found to be a pretty big missing piece to leave off. Luke making more Jedi allowed Snoke, the only Sith, to pull Ben to the Dark Side, then all the Jedi dying and Luke leaving left the light empty, bringing Kylo back to the light. On top of that, though, Nerrel explained that Kylo resisting the Dark was what led the Light to spring up through Rey, which seemed to be an entirely new mechanic added on top of the others he pitched. MauLer asked the most crucial question of how he could claim that knowing what powers the Force lets someoone do was unimportant when what really matters is character journeys, only to then claim that the rules of the Force was what was turning people good and evil

Nerrel described Kylo as a desperate cultist looking for an escape who had to kill Snoke to move forward, while Rags said it would be more accurate to call him one of the cult leaders whose "moving forward" was just doing what Snoke was already doing. He claimed Kylo was only meant to offer Rey to his side like Vader did and not to turn good himself, leading Rags to ask how that fit his graph. Him bemoaning what he saw as people only wanting "their fucking Wookieepedia page filled out!" came off as fairly bitter to MauLer, who thought that this video was just meant to be humorous entertainment. He said it would suck if Snoke just started rambling about his life story mid-scene, something that nobody ever actually asked for, MauLer personally wishing for a scene of Snoke training Kylo that could simultaneously explore his methods and ideology as well as Kylo's dynamic with him. Nerrel described Rey and Kylo as both having been failed by the Dark and Light Side, prompting MauLer to ask how Rey was failed at all, and Rags to ask how the Jedi failing Kylo counted as the Light failing him when Luke's point was that the Jedi don't own the Light. Nerrel suggested them reconciling their differences would finally balance the Force, to which Rags asked what about Kylo could be reconciled with if he remains on the Dark Side and does Dark Side things like killing others in a quest for selfish power, and conversely if he stops doing those things how he would even count as still being on the Dark Side and not just another Light Side user

Nerrel then dropped the bombshell that it was actually George Lucas, not Abrams or Johnson, who conceived of Luke being a broken hermit, which nobody cared about, since it was the execution and not the concept they took issue with, and even if they did they were not opposed to believing George Lucas could have a bad idea. He countered the argument that Luke is meant to be optimistic by reminding people that he had a darker side too, showing clips of Luke before his character development, a clip of him mourning Obi-Wan's death, him lamenting how he never knew his mother, him saying "I've endangered the mission, I shouldn't have come" when that was literally true, and him saying "I can't go on alone," which Rags noted would go against the idea of him isolating himself. He also reminded that Luke was willing to attack Vader despite still seeing the good in him, ignoring that Vader had goaded Luke into a fight by threatening to turn his sister evil while Kylo had a bad dream. Nerrel bemoaned that fans only wanted fanservice, showing a fanmade image of Luke and Han reuniting, and MauLer was baffled that two old friends being in the same room as each other was now considered "fanservice." He scoffed that bringing back the same characters but older worked so well for *Indiana Jones*, apparently under the belief that the only issue with *Kingdom of the Crystal Skull* was Indy being old. Nerrel cited Rian Johnson comparing Luke's story to King Arthur's story beginning with him pulling the sword from the stone (which Rags corrected is not the beginning of King Arthur's story), and then explained that the story gets darker as Arthur gets older because myths are not meant to sell action figures, to which MauLer asks if that meant the only correct way to portray an older character is to have them be miserable. He decried parading around characters for nostalgia rather than having them grow and change, citing C-3PO and R2-D2 appearing in Rogue One, raising the question of how exactly Artoo and Threepio were meant to grow and change in the 20-second cameo they had. Nerrel explained that Luke and Han had no reunion because Harrison Ford wanted to be more than an empty cameo, and that his death was not about him but was in service of the plot, punctuating his point with a bizarre edit of Han being killed by a big cloud of steam. The gang was let down by this explanation, since his death being in service of the plot and not about him was part of what ended up making him an empty cameo.

Nerrel then held up Luke's story as serving both Luke *and* the overall plot, laying out that Leia saying she wanted Luke to train Ben because of how much Vader was in him meant he likely tried everything in his power to stop Ben from turning to the Dark Side, something that was not in the movie. He countered the claim that Luke should want to save his loved ones rather than kill them by explaining that this *was* Luke trying to save his loved ones, by killing one of them, because if he had actually went through with it then all of Kylo's victims would have lived, missing the glaring detail that Kylo would have never wanted to kill them in the first place if not for Luke trying to kill him. He went on to explain that Luke stopped trying to kill his nephew because it's not in his character to kill his nephew, and concluded that he faltered before ultimately doing the right thing, a claim that rang hollow with MauLer and the gang since Luke then left the galaxy to be terrorized by his mistake. Nerrel recounted how Kylo killing his students woke Luke up to the failures of the Jedi, like how they'd let Palpatine subvert them before, leading MauLer to ask how being deceived by a manipulator after thousands of years of keeping the peace made the Jedi failures as a whole. He described the error in Luke thinking restoring the Jedi Order would make things right again, to which Rags asked why his new conclusion was to leave Snoke unopposed when everything was going fine until Snoke ruined it. Nerrel citing *Hero with a Thousand Faces* saying that the hero needs to make something new rather than recreate the old (which according to Chat was a quote taken out of context) raised the question of why it was even being assumed that Luke's Order would be a carbon copy of the old one in the first place. He described Luke and Leia's new Republic as failing even quicker than the last one, prompting MauLer to ask how it was their fault the Sith built a giant gun that blew up their whole government, the only failure he could see on Leia's part being not convincing the Republic to have its own military. Luke, according to Nerrel, came to learn that assembling all those Light Side users invited the Dark Side to destroy them, leaving MauLer baffled that the moral seemed to be that bringing together good people was bad in and of itself, and that Luke did not leave his friends, but rather helped them the only way he knew how, by leaving them, since he knew they would not accept his decision to leave them otherwise. He considered this Luke learning not to act impulsively like he did in *Empire*, while everyone else considered running away forever to be fairly impulsive. Nerrel argued that none of this ruined *Return of the Jedi*'s happy ending, since Luke's new order was doomed to fail even back then, something Rags disagreed with vehemently, but argued that even if it was true, surely another thousands of years of peace would still be worth the 30 years of the Sith winning

Nerrel praised *The Last Jedi* for having more specific themes than any previous film, the first being preservation versus destruction, with Kylo being the villain because he wants to destroy everything. The theme even plays out, he argued, in Poe wanting to destroy the Dreadnaught, to which Rags countered that when someone else is trying to destroy you then destroying them may be the only means of preserving yourself. He concluded that Leia was right and Poe was wrong, since the movie ends with them having no fleet left for the Dreadnaught to destroy and their soldiers were worth more than that hollow victory, Rags snapping back that had the Dreadnaught been left in play it would have killed them all immediately, with MauLer adding it was Holdo who kept them all doing nothing while they were picked off. Nerrel described Poe as only understanding leadership from the perspective of an X-Wing pilot, an odd condemnation given Poe is an X-Wing squad *leader* and the job at hand was piloting an X-Wing, and so had his bravado-focused idea of leadership challenged by having his X-Wing taken away and forcing him to learn the hard way, the bravado in question being asking for confirmation that there was a plan and the hard way in question was having a Captain who acted like there was no plan. This point was hammered home by Rose stopping Finn from sacrificing himself, and MauLer and co could not help but laugh at him cutting that clip before the giant laser destroyed the Resistance' safe haven. Nerrel had a counter for that, however, arguing that destroying the cannon would have only delayed the inevitable, to which MauLer corrected that it is explicitly stated that the cannon is the only thing that could breach the door. He described Finn as just a guy trying to do the right thing rather than the hero people saw him as but later growing into that role, sending the message that it's okay for a hero not to be real as long as they spread the idea that they are.

Nerrel went on to lay out Luke's reputation as the biggest hero in the galaxy, to the point where people thought everything would be solved if he just returned, a point he backed up with a clip of Poe saying Luke returning would give them *a chance*. He wrote people off as wanting Luke to be a Gary Stu, prompting Wolf to ask why the same people who claim that get upset at detractors for saying the same of Rey. Nerrel scoffed at complaints about Luke chucking his lightsaber over his shoulder with a clip of him throwing down his lightsaber in *Return of the Jedi*, apparently under the impression that throwing down your weapon to defy someone who is goading you into killing someone is no different than chucking it over your shoulder for a fakeout because they're both throwing. He explained that Luke hated that saber since it reminded him of his aforementioned failures, but he was broken down by Rey to realize what he really needs to do, something MauLer found funny since apparently 10 years of being alone with his thoughts did not produce that conclusion but meeting some stranger for a few hours did, and Yoda had never even tried until after Rey did. Nerrel concluded that Luke (pretended to) face down the First Order with a laser sword to live up to that image, having learned that he doesn't have to actually be a hero to inspire people, to which Rags asked why Luke did not simply clear up the misconceptions people had about how much he could help and just help to the degree he could, since he would want to do the right thing by helping his sister regardless of how much it inspired people. The claim that Luke inspired the galaxy this way also raised the usual question of why this was more inspiring and widespread of a story than him overthrowing the Empire, with MauLer commenting that this whole video just seemed to be compiling the usual defenses for this movie

Nerrel was annoyed that people thought the kid with the broom at the end of the film may have been the setup for some spinoff, and decried fans ignoring the mythology upon which *Star Wars* was based and therefore missing its meaning, which Wolf found ironic given how much he had ignored the movies themselves and even science, Rags jabbing that God forbid people just judge the movie by the movie. He played a contextless clip of a podcaster saying *The* *Last* *Jedi* felt like a corporate product to him, highlighting what he perceived as hypocrisy between that claim and the claim made by completely different people who claimed it was the brainchild of a rogue eccentric filmmaker. MauLer still found those two claims to not be mutually exclusive, since it would be possible Disney was motivated by wanting to make the most money and hired Rian Johnson under the belief he'd achieve that end, then Johnson did his own thing. Nerrel then responded to a clip of Jay from RedLetterMedia saying only Poe has an arc by putting text onscreen for a second to deboonk that, describing Rey's arc as putting her past aside to become the Jedi's successor (she is still wondering about her parents by the end of the film), Luke's as overcoming his failure to save the universe (he did not save the universe, and he never should have responded to failure that way in the first place), Finn accepting staying with the Resistance (true, but how he got to that point was nonsense), Kylo breaking free of Snoke to forge his own path (just doing Snoke's path himself), and Rose's as literally just "answers the call to adventure." He did get one thing right, correctly pointing out RedLetterMedia's mistake of claiming we don't know how the First Order found the Rebel base when it was the same base Starkiller sought to destroy in the previous movie, but that was followed up by him trying to compare their take that *The Last Jedi* should have ended on the cliffhanger of Kylo offering Rey his hand to ending *Titanic* right when the iceberg hits, apparently seeing no difference between a standalone film and the second act of a trilogy. MauLer also added that he could easily see a hypothetical Titanic trilogy ending one of the films right when they hit the ice, and Chat pointed out that *Infinity War* ended on a cliffhanger and the hype for *Endgame* was insane as a result. Nerrel countered nitpicks of the film's bad choreography by whatabouting that the entire Original Trilogy would have ended if the Empire had shot R2 and Threepio's escape pod, ignoring that it showed no signs of life in it and they thought it was empty, that Han was not killed by the "20 mile blast radius" explosion that was very clearly only the width of a few trees, and that Stormtroopers were beaten by Ewoks, which everybody already agreed was stupid. He also took another shot at *Rogue* *One*, claiming it was not written like the Originals were

Nerrel admitted to being a hypocrite since he nitpicks plenty too, but differentiated that when he dislikes something he tries to make a genuine effort to find out why it turned out that way and that he even thinks some parts of the prequels and Special Editions are good, to which MauLer responded that most sequel detractors would similarly concede the sequels have some good things in them. He proclaimed that practically nothing is completely bad, and knowing that separates the good critics from the bad, putting among others one of MauLer's videos onscreen as an example of the bad. Nerrel admitted that he didn't love The Last Jedi upon seeing it, claiming Disney rushing these movies out every two years was guaranteed to hamper Rian Johnson's vision (ironic given he had previously acted confused that this movie could be both an eccentric director's vision and a corporate product), even listing some negatives with the film, like the scene of Rose saving Finn he praised earlier having her hit him so fast it should have killed him. Rags offered up that maybe all those negatives he saw were just the result of him not understanding the themes behind them. Hearing Rian Johnson talk about the film solidified his thoughts on it though, which he demonstrated with a clip of him saying Luke knows rising up the Jedi will just lead to the Sith rising up again, even though the Sith are already currently risen up. He assured people it was fine if his video didn't change their mind but the one takeaway they should have is take it down a notch, expressing doubt over the fan claim that Disney had influenced reviewers, only to then switch that out for his own unfounded claim that it was actually the audience scores that were suspect. He described Kelly Marie Tran as having been driven off of social media by *Star Wars* fans, when her own words placed the blame on the Hollywood system, not fans. He praised Rian Johnson for being amazingly unphased by any vitriol about the movie, which reminded MauLer of Johnson having put a character in his next movie to portray people who didn't like The Last Jedi as white supremacists. Nerrel promised he was not trying to villify anybody except of course the racists, despite having villified Red Letter Media earlier on, and urged people to go into *Episode IX* without baggage and let it take them on whatever journey it chooses, and to remember that people worked really hard on it

## Trivia

* He Googled it
* When Anakin's lightsaber flew into Rey's hand rather than Kylo's, that was because it rejected Kylo
* You wouldn't end *Titanic* on a cliffhanger, so you shouldn't end a *Star* *Wars* movie on one either
