Character description

edit

It is written, Luke was one of the last jedi knights. But he is not a full Jedi yet, at least Yoda says so, only by the end. KhlavKhalash (talk) 16:12, 22 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

In the real world, it doesn't matter that we're not in-universe nitpicky. DonQuixote (talk) 16:15, 22 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Critical Response

edit

I tried adding with a source that clarifies the critical response for the Prequels was more mixed amongst fans as it tended to be the older generation of fans and critics that were more polarized but the younger generation even as kids tended to be more positive of them but it got edited out. I think it's necessary to tell this side of the story as it's part of history. As while "polarized" tells a part of the story it seems more leaning to what the older generation of fans thought.

Boba’s survival

edit

On the Phantom Menace page, Maul’s survival in TCW is mentioned. Someone said that doing the same for Boba wouldn’t work because it’s not relevant to the film itself. While this is fair, it’s also inconsistent with the Phantom Menace page.

For consistency’s sake, I think either the mention of Boba surviving should be added, or the mention of Maul surviving should be removed from that page, since both deaths were retconned via TV shows.

This is the talk page for Return of the Jedi, what happens on another article is not relevant here. Something that was retconned in a TV show nearly 40 years after this isn't relevant to the plot of this movie. Film plots are contemporary to the film and its release. If you wish to remove it from TPM then go ahead. Canterbury Tail talk 00:09, 12 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
I concur with Canterbury Tail. The retcon is relevant to the later works that rely on it, but it serves no purpose here. Betty Logan (talk) 02:33, 12 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
