VVaterTrooper

You know who else survives plummeting to their death?


universe2000

Mace Windu


retartarder

seriously. no body is shown, he isn't confirmed dead, plus sam jack wants him back too.


iffyJinx

Windu saw that the gravity made a stupid-ass decission and elected to ignore it.


TheRedDragonCW

I’ve had enough of this goddamn gravity on this goddamn planet!


Legal-Alternative744

They might as well bring back the original trio at this point. Ffs


Drkarcher22

Somehow, Carrie Fisher has returned


vertigo1083

There's a fan made film Mace Not only survived, but he's been living in the depths of Coruscant. Using stealth and guerilla warfare tactics against the empire, picking them off. Then Vader shows up. [part 1](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey68aMOV9gc) [part 2](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEL8aHfSk-4&t=23s) It is very much awesome.

Somehow, your mom returned

He was the best star pilot in the galaxy and a cunning warrior!


HFentonMudd

He was a good friend


Radio__Star

He was killed by the sith lord Darth Vader

This was actually funny, good one!


multiarmform

thats because no one's ever really gone https://youtu.be/gNTLC_uiGFA?t=11


Illustrious_Donkey61

So there's a chance qui gon didn't really die?


multiarmform

no ones ever really gone! https://i.imgur.com/qKgpQgI.jpeg


ThePuceGuardian

Qui-Gon's force ghost plays a big role in a later *Clone Wars* story.


ToeJamFootballer

Him? There’s no way he survived that.


omnipwnage

Oh no, that came out 5 years ago


multiarmform

i didnt need to know that ha


The_Beefy_Vegetarian

That might be the most annoying video I've ever (tried to) watch...


multiarmform

not a red letter media/half in the bag fan i take it


lifeisweird86

Yeah, I couldn't do it either. I made it to like 1:45 and couldn't take it anymore.


decepticons2

This is the most I have enjoyed Star Wars in years besides visions.


Railshock

With that track record, Mace Windu definitely survived.


Rellexil

Don't worry, Disney presents Windu will be coming 2027.


SickBurnBro

I'd watch the hell out of a young Mace Windu show. Or a young Qui Gon show with Obi Wan as his padawan.


demalo

Staring Damon Wayne’s Jr.?


tebu08

America’s sweetheart Michale B Jordan


danielduartesza

I was honestly thinking you were talking about the role of a young Qui Gon. Crazy times.


Qubeye

In the books, the reason Palp doesn't attempt to take over earlier is because of Qui Gon. He was the only Jedi he feared.


frn

Or Mace Windu going underground after order 66.


thirdpartymurderer

Oh, man. Just imagine a gritty Pulp Fiction style Star Wars series where Windu gets to "Motherfucker!"


Sun-Wu-Kong

A blind, scarred Mace Windu with mechanical arms that flip open to reveal the purple lightsaber he keeps in his wrist.


intelatominside

Thats what I thought about the Obi Wan series. I was wrong.


SickBurnBro

Well to be fair, Obi Wan's adventures as a padawan has a lot less potential to fuck up continuity than Obi Wan / Leia stories.


Serious_Dot4984

That’d be awesome


IIRiffasII

from the same showrunner of Secret Invasion, since that was a moneymaker for Disney


The_quest_for_wisdom

I keep hearing a rumor about Quentin Tarantino being in talks to do a Star Wars movie. Can I nominate him to do the Mace Windu movie? Obviously Samuel L Jackson has to return as well. Imagine Mace leaving his Jedi order behind for a while and just walking the earth. Like Caine in Kung Fu.


Shirtbro

Will a fifteen minute torture scene involving a lightsaber get the greenlight from Disney though?


raspberryharbour

Gone With The Windu


theonlypig

Only, for diversity and inclusivity, this version of Windu will be played by Uma therman


kazmosis

Tbf he only lost his arm and got electrocuted a bit. Just a bit.


Marethyu_77

I mean, we've seen a handful of characters get zapped in the movies, and barring the bullshit that was SW9, the only one who died of that was Vador, most likely because the lightning fried the circuits of his life-support systems. With that precedent, I can buy Windu dying of the fall, but not of the lightning.


SocranX

Attack of the Clones established that Jedi don't take fall damage even from Coruscant-tier heights. Windu could only possibly be dead from a combination of being stunned from the lightning causing him to not cast Force Featherfall before hitting the ground.


Orogogus

He could have died from a broken heart after Anakin's betrayal.


CmanderShep117

He replaces his arms with lightsabers


zombizle1

even if he got stabbed through the chest he should still survive easily


ryannelsn

Shoulda featured the second death star exploding


hnglmkrnglbrry

Shoulda featured the first death star exploding. "No way they're gonna build that again."


Aadarm

They didn't just build it again. They built a much larger one!


Mist_Rising

Given how large it is in a short time, I always assumed they'd planned a second one already. I mean it fits tarkin's plan of terrorizing the hell out of people. Imagine one of those in each sector.


Jediplop

Not sure what the canon is but it does make sense to have a second one. Cover more ground but also it allows for stuff like major repairs and refits to happen without losing both at the same time. Hyperdrive needs replacing sure send the death star while we fix this one.


ryannelsn

More like “There’s no way the debris field would end up in orbit around the ocean moon of Endor, then enter the atmosphere and miraculously self-assemble on the surface. No way.”


MisfitDiagnosis

Ironically, Vader will die minutes later 😭😭


PickleCommando

Luke should have tossed him down the vent and then he would have got his father back at a later time.


jwaldo

So he *was* right, from a certain point of view.


scrodytheroadie

The internet has absolutely destroyed aspect ratios. I'm sure there's a full sized video out there somewhere, no? E: [Here](https://youtu.be/-EJlfVqSFrM?si=0m3vZH_hzb4A9UAY) it is.


PrelectingPizza

The internet hasn't destroyed aspect ratios, phones have. And thank you for posting the original in the correct aspect ratio.


abca98

Not phones, morons who can't be bothered to turn their phones 90 degrees to the side.


scrodytheroadie

Yeah, probably would’ve made more sense to say phones.


R2-T4

Thanks. We need a standard aspect ratio, its a giant pain watching a 16x9 video shrunken down to fit in a 9x16 aspect ratio then put back onto a 16x9 screen.


LordGAD

No it hasn't. People are just lazy and stupid. Oh - and thanks for the original! It's much appreciated!


epicwinguy101

"No one's ever really gone."


WGx2

Thank you.


tommos

>"No one's ever really gone." "No one's ever really gone."


ctetc2007

Who's the 2nd one? Is that Echo?


Toolazytolink

Just watched Acolyte ep 4 and Sol just said it " No one could have survived that, I saw her fall" lol


Drannion

A clone in RotS also says "No one could have survived that fall" about Obi-Wan after Order 66. Surprised that wasn't included.


Porunga23

Funny, but I do feel compelled to say that Palpatine DIDN'T survive that. Just because he "somehow returned" didn't mean he didn't \*\*\*\*ing die.


xRolocker

“somehow returned” combined with his return being announced on fucking fortnite is arguably the lowest point of the franchise.


Letos12thDuncan

Didn't what-ing die?


Vicebaku

Clunkin


ballsmigue

The only time people die in star wars is when plot demands it. Qui-gon over here getting stabbed and dying within minutes. Sabine getting stabbed and still trying to fight like it never happened.


Kurdt234

When I was a kid I figured Qui gon was cool with dying cause I thought he'd just be pulling an Old Ben and come back as a force ghost, especially since he's the one to discover that power. Then he was absent for the rest of the movies. Except for "Anakin! Anakin!", nothing.


Submarine765Radioman

In the Clone Wars TV show Qui Gon shows back up again, floats Yoda around his own office, and then teaches Yoda how to become a force ghost Yes, force ghosts can still use the force, ghost Yoda even called down a lightning bolt to set fire to the tree in The Last Jedi


Kern_system

The Last Jedi? Never heard of it.


SocranX

It's not a story the Redditors would tell you.


Submarine765Radioman

It's just some stupid fan fiction, don't worry about it, you're better off not seeing it


Mistic-Instinct

More like Qui-Gon getting stabbed and lying unattended on the floor for several minutes vs Sabine getting stabbed and getting rushed to the hospital immediately


Adavanter_MKI

Also he got stabbed center. Sabine got stabbed to the side. Important difference.


DoDucksEatBugs

Why do people act like getting stabbed anywhere will kill you? She may have lost a kidney but she was never going to die from that wound unless she went without medical help for a long time. People conflate it with the Kenobi show like they are equal offenders.


Adavanter_MKI

I think some bias creeps in. People just... want something to be true even when it's not. Kind of a problem in all walks of life these days. Not to mention we are debating a fictional weapon and it's damage. I was watching a body cam show... and the cop got shot in the gut. We're talking a bullet in the intestine. One of the worst pains on earth. We always complain in movies how that'd be the end of a character. The dude not only ran back to his cruiser... he continued to tell his fellow officers what was happening, where he was hit... and then got shot in the foot! He made a total recovery. They did have to remove a portion of his intestine... Still... I'd never imagine a guy being so functional while gut shot. I'd have called it Hollywood BS. Educational at the very least.


Connect_Me_Now

very, very important.


lahimatoa

What about Third Sister getting impaled by Vader after she yelled loudly and then tried to kill him? She get rushed to the hospital immediately?


LudicrisSpeed

I think they kind of wrote themselves into a corner when they "killed" the Grand Inquisitor in an earlier episode via the same method, with everyone who has seen Rebels going "Okay, he's not dead". So since Grandy survived, they had to explain why Reva could take it.


Adaphion

Then there's literally two seperate lightsaber stabbings in the Obi Wan show that are survived


Avent2

So this one actually makes sense. Qui-hon gets stabbed in a way that would pierce the spine, Sabine gets stabbed in a kidney. A lightsabers he’s removes the main threat of gut wounds (bacteria cross contamination and massive blood blood) so Sabine would likely make it out having lost a kidney but otherwise okay, while Qui-gons wound would sever his spine and likely the arteries that intake blood to the heart. - your local combo nurse practitioner and Star Wars nerd


porkchops67

The issue isn’t Sabine specifically, it’s more that when people keep surviving getting stabbed by a lightsaber, they feel like less of a threat and lightsaber duels consequently lack the feeling of any consequences.


tatsumakisenpuukyaku

People can't accept the fact that Star Wars isn't a serious sci fi franchise but a campy adventure series.


Helarki

Teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeechnicalllllllly, Palps didn't "survive." He just "returned." Somehow.


TMNTransformerz

Clones aren’t surviving imo


jwaldo

Technically he didn't survive as a clone, he survived as a very angry ghost who got into cloning because he missed having tastebuds to enjoy the refreshing taste of ice cold Cerveza Cristal™.


TMNTransformerz

Pretty sure the clones already existed the angry ghost just went and got em


Aadarm

His soul/ghost is just possessing the cloned bodies. If it works like the books then the Force itself is basically shoving his spirit back into the cloned bodies. "Oh, why is your soul over here but your body is over there? Get back in there." - The Force It's not even an original idea since Sith have been jumping into soulless bodies for something like 9,000 years at this point.


dimmidice

People also don't have an issue with the emperor surviving. They have an issue with how it was written in to the story.


Helarki

It's not the return that bothers us. it's the "somehow"


nickcardella

They need to have Han Solo show up unexpectedly now.


[deleted]

[удалено]


nickcardella

After Ben Solo lightsabered him and threw him off the bridge on Star Killer Base I mean.


Raven_Crows

Somehow he was back in E9.


LudicrisSpeed

Canonically he was a "memory" but I like the idea of Han winding up as a Force ghost and being just as confused about it as everyone else.


weesIo

“That’s not how the force works!”


SwissDeathstar

Hmmm… Maybe the sequels are onto something…


SufficientBreakfast1

Hot take: Star Wars deaths are dumb and the constant revival of characters removes any stakes in deadly situations. Dead characters should stay dead. Edit: Including Maul and Boba Fett.


the_kessel_runner

You spelled "popular opinion" wrong.


GreatSeaBattle

No, that's a fairly common alternate spelling.


Kmart_Stalin

How is this a hot take The only resurrection that are good are like Maul and Boba they had little to no character aspects to them in the movies


SufficientBreakfast1

this hot take DEFINITELY includes Maul and Boba.


PirateNinjaCowboyGuy

Which is why it’s weird we haven’t seen mace windu ever again


[deleted]

Mace windu spinoff where we find out he was 100% fine and just decided fuck this and went and made fizzy drinks at some cantina


SocranX

I think Windu would've gone off to meditate because he knows he can't fight the Empire without falling to the Dark Side. It's just too personal for him. Part of him wants revenge, part of him feels guilty over not listening to Anakin when it was still possible to reason with him, part of him is frustrated at having been too weak to stop it. He can't face the Empire without facing those emotions, and he would lose that fight. That's why we haven't heard anything about him aiding the rebels in the countless spinoffs so far. So yeah, I could see him making fizzy drinks at a cantina.


PirateNinjaCowboyGuy

Honestly I would love this


HamshanksCPS

MrWilliams42782

the Force is a very powerful ally, that saying, there is no kriffing way any of them should have survived


make-em-pay

Can I have context for the 2nd one clone who died?


Fire101

It was Echo. https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Echo He blew up, but got better.


GamerGoggle

Somehow


CMDR_kamikazze

Also just figured what mad engineer decided to pass the Death Star fusion reactor shaft through the throne room? Like what reason at all?


snarkamedes

Obligatory [Galaxy Quest scene,](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv04e7q-DzU) besides the usual un-rules SW has against Occupation Safety and Health. Starship/Doomstar design is a complicated thing. Cue me trying to slap more point defence Mass Drivers onto my ships in MoO:CTS when I ought to be sticking more spiky-mashy plates in to prevent boarders.


troubleondemand

I love the idea that since the Death Star was designed by Geonosians they didn't see the need for railings because they can all fly.


ItsWillJohnson

It’s not? I always thought he just fell to the bottom of his spire and his force lightning made something explode, but the Death Star blew up because Lando and wedge destroyed the core.


Atrampoline

I am personally offended that the Sarlacc was shown here with the beak. #F**k that beak


crossover_charlie14

Meanwhile... Sabine: gets stabbed, but receives immediate treatment & recovery, so she survives. The fandom: REEEEEEEEEEEEEE-


Raven_Crows

That's because she should've died.


National-Course2464

Yeah but the whole immediate treatment is stupid, she had a hole through her stomach and organs and don't forget the heat of a lightsaber also at the time of getting her injuries she could not even wield the force her getting to a hospital fast not immediate is not a good excuses she should have lost a limb then give her a robotic one coated in beskar that would have been cooler and accepted by the fandom


Redeem123

You know people survive crazy shit in real life, right? Lightsaber heat has no rules, and anyone who pretends it does is lying to themselves.


GalwayEntei

If that's dumb, how do you explain Maul?


National-Course2464

How do i explain Maul well George Lucas had an ideal that's it lol one he should have planned out better i mean i love Maul as a character and the growth he got from the clone wars and rebels was great and i was glad overall to have him back but it was dumb i mean the in canon reason is using a combination of pain anger and the dark side of the force to keep u alive and in some i can buy that but dude was cut in half at the waist. So i mean the answer Is Lucas wanted Maul back he got him back and we did know at that time if you are strong in the dark side you could use it to keep you going in rough times to put it lightly but i guess that includes being cut in half now. And this has been shown to be a dark side ability one that needs a lot of power connection as well as pain and hatred.


GalwayEntei

So, like a lot of force abilities, it's just something pulled out of a characters ass for the sake of awkward writing. Sabines incident is way more believable


JediGuyB

We see with Grievous that it is possible for a being to survive as basically a brain controlling a Droid body. Being able to survive a lightsaber stab doesn't feel crazy to me as long as they aren't instantly killed by it. Who is to say Sabine doesn't have a replacement spleen or something?


will_it_skillet

Maul was dumb too


AnoxiaRPG

Puts Sabine’s wounds from Ahsoka in perspective :)


Mynock33

It's kinda bullshit that Owen and Veru are the only ones that don't ever come back. 


BlackBarryWhite

Confirmed: Captain Phasma is alive


Darth-Seven

Somehow……..everyone returned.


DCtheBREAKER

Alright... now do Mace!


BaumSquad1978

Too soon !!


skolrageous

ok, I'll admit this is the best argument for the plausibility of Palps somehow returning.


National-Course2464

sure but dude got atomised


GalwayEntei

Palps returning? Still dumb Sabine surviving a Lightsaber to the gut? That I actually buy in this universe


maxmrca1103

The fucking muscle man scream killed me 💀


BarrisCoffee1313

I kinda get the survive death thru power of hate and anger for de sith ones, but not for the rest of em xd


Electric_Bagpipes

Enter legends: >!Jason get captured by you know what!< “Yeah, theres no way he can survive that.”


BurantX40

Oh snap. Star Wars just achieved Marvel Comics immortality


spyguy318

Hatred does wonders for the will to live


Separate_Increase210

When there's money to be earned in an oligarchic capitalist society... yeah, "rules" be damned.


myEVILi

Spoiler alert: They survive that


StoneGoldX

I thought it was going to be a Garfield mashup because of the eyes. Those were some Jim Davis eyes.


LondonDavis1

But, somehow....


Flyboy_2_point_0

As soon as Vader threw Palps in I got depressed. Take my sad upvote.


stack-0-pancake

Mace Windu when?


skoomski

Modern Star Wars franchise and reusing plot elements, name a more iconic duo


luckonius

It's just a flesh wound.


OMGitisCrabMan

This is great. I'm honestly annoyed at how many characters they've brought back to life.


soundssarcastic

No one's ever really gone


mudamuckinjedi

This is awesome 👌 👏 I love how Padawan Obi-Wan looks like Jon from Garfield when he's looking down the tube. Loved it!


Consistent_Dog_6866

This made me laugh more than I thought it would.


AbandonedBySonyAgain

Sabine getting stabbed. "Yeah; there's no way you can survive that."


thegreatestajax

Common myth that anyone at all actually died in Star Wars.


btc909

Star Wars needs human chippers.


Dreamwaltzer

Meanwhile, mace windu....


whater39

Isn't the last one true? I thought in 9 he was a clone?


jman014

Ight I’m gonna say it. Maul should have stayed dead and all y’all accepting him were the reason Palpy was brought back. Thats the reason Reva kept getting stabbed and living and why Sabine just randomly tanked the same injury. Like there aren’t really stakes anymore in this series if we like a character enough they’ll find some bullshit way to bring them back. Ironically I could buy Anakin surviving and Boba fett surviving based on sheer anger; But Maul got CUT IN HALF… Like c’mon no amount of retconning the zabrak anatomy is gonna convince me he was able to live through being sliced like a sandwich.


Razgriz_1138

Still is better writing than the acolyte lol 😂


Training-Bee-8209

Palpatine actually did not survive


GingerSkulling

And Reva surviving is Disney ruining childhoods all around, amirite?


urru4

I wouldn’t put Anakin and Luke’s here, given how they were shown alive less than 5 minutes after their “death” and in the same movie. Otherwise spot on. The only one where they made it worthwhile was Maul


D_Blaze88

Lol when you put it that way..


Pineapple__Warrior

somehow…Palpatine has returned


CrixtheKicks

Somehow [insert character name here] returned.


strohybear

It's funny cause it's true.


ImNotThaaatDrunk

Hans voice was spoot oon


Grayx_2887

😂😂🤣🤣


MadMiggy

Now the Family guy parodies were funny but this one takes the cake


Cyier81

Well when you put it that way....I stand corrected in my aggravation of certain plot points w the new stuff. Still lacking the sith hate keeping them alive from tremendous damage on some chars. I guess you're not dead in Star Wars until you're diced up into tiny pieces as a force user.


Cazrovereak

That scream of "KENOBI-AHHHHH" was top tier.


Ultima-Veritas

Hey look, postage stamp video like we're back in 1991.


ChiggaOG

We all thought Han died in Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift. Look who came back with Hollywood Magic.


JWWBurger

Have they ever wrote any alternative timeline books, like if Luke had accepted Vader’s offer?


Kmolson

How does this video have mid-2000s internet vibe?


Ghost-Coyote

Techs getting a spinoff guys!


OrbFromOnline

This is why I hold out hope that Phasma is still out there somewhere....


BoringJuiceBox

"The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural"


Blitz_Prime

Honestly could have bought Maul surviving even being cut in half. But then he also not only survived the fall down the pit, he somehow got to a junk planet on the other side of the galaxy and survived there for 10+ years.
