Luke’s Jedi Academy: The Giant Hole At The Center Of The Star Wars Timeline

Hello! I’ve been wanting to make a video about this topic for literal years, and I’m so excited for you all to see it. Thank you so much for watching!!

The clone wars, the republic dark horse comics AND THE TOYS!! The sequels received nothing we don’t even have the whole cast in 3.75 to this day

You have my thoughts. I think an animated series like The Clone Wars would add not only more context, but liven the era more. Having it focused on Luke's Jedi Academy would be amazing to see. I believe they could have Luke's exile follow a similar path as Ahsoka's in the first 5 seasons of the Clone Wars, perhaps even ending with Luke leaving solemnly as she reaches out to him like Anakin did. Though I would also love if this hypothetical series focused on Rey, Finn and Poe before Episode 7. The Force Awakens' grounded aesthetic could be leaned into, and how the conditions of their upbringing made them who they are. I'd also like to see more of Kylo's time with the Knights of Ren, and their connection to Palpatine. I also would like to see some books for each film's anniversary like they have done for Episodes 1 and 2 in recent years.

STAR WARS!!!! LET ME WRITE A OSSUS ACADEMY SHOW AND MY LIFE IS YOURS 🗣️🗣️🗣️

I just clicked randomly because I was bored and I had time to kill, and I ended up spending 36 minutes of my life paying attention to every single word you said. Genuinely a very good video, you changed my point of view on many aspects of the sequels, thanks man.

I wish there was a big series about the New Republic era that connected Sequels with originals

Just gotta say man, it's so refreshing to watch a Star Wars video from a true fan without blindly hating or loving any particular part of the franchise just for engagement on the internet. I dig the vibe of this channel and the way that you can tell your points are coming from a true place of love and best interest for the franchise. Keep it up bro

As they seem to fear making more stories around the sequel-era characters I just wished the High Republic was post TROS as that initiative has been more of the focus.

Whatever Disney does, they need to capture the younger audience, otherwise Star Wars truly will fade away

They should have picked between either having the NJO destroyed or the NR destroyed and focus on the consequences of one. Now the period immediately of Sequels have to redo everything that should have been done post ep.6, limiting the potential stories that could be told in either era. I’ve been thinking about how to make a both Rey and Luke’s Jedi order shows without them stepping on each others toes. I’ve come to the conclusion that the story of the Jedi order should be split amongst the two. The gathering of the knowledge (sacred texts, holocrons), the early formation of the order, the pressures of running a school and the difficulties of teaching a troubled kid should be left to Luke’s school. Rey’s school can focus on the students themselves, the Jedi Hogwarts that people have been asking for. This could very much focus on the students and their journeys to becoming Jedi. Rey, Finn and Poe should also have an animated series that takes place immediately post TROS.

I yearn for a Clone Wars/Rebels-style animated series about Luke’s Jedi Academy but I’m also incredibly curious to see how the rise of Thrawn will play into the New Republic at large

I was just saying the other day how we desperately need a TV or movie series about Luke and Ben leading up to his fall to the Dark Side while Mark Hamill and Adam Driver are still young enough. It's such a glaring hole in the onscreen timeline.

Man I would love if they focused on giving us another animated show based on this era made on Clone Wars style.

i’d like to see the bloodline story in live action. it’d be really interesting to see the new Republic finding out that Darth Vader was Anakin.

I have come as quick as I could. I must inform everyone that this video, is yet another absolute banger!! Fantastic job once again

So, episode 7 should be simply Luke's Academy and the discovery of Snoke, then episode 8 would be the rise of the First Order and Luke's banishment and episode 9: the final battle and destruction of the emperor. Disney has overcomplicated things, and now they need to get out of this mess.

We currently don't know what the next animated series is after The Bad Batch, and I have fingers crossed that we get Jedi Academy!

110% with this. I understand people love TCW and the bad batch, but when rumors began spreading about a new animated show, this is what I thought of. I love the clones, the prequels, and all the stories surrounding it. But THIS is the story we need right now. The only alternative I would take is a slightly older audience oriented High Republic show. Love the Young Jedi Adventures though. As you mentioned the show growing with the audience I immediately thought of Rebels. Yeah TCW does the same thing, I think Rebels is an even better example of that idea. Great video!! Can’t wait to see more

I think a large part as to why we haven't had much content around this era could be the fan backlash to the sequel trilogy. I hope that isn't the case because I'd love to see the whole story of Ben solo's fall

I think we definitely need a ANIMATED show exploring Lukes jedi order. The live action shows leave much to be desired, and a animated show following Luke, Ben and a few other characters in the clone wars art style (or better yet a western anime style) would be very effective.
