Yoda

Humans have loved comparing things from ages untold, and we’re going to keep doing it! Someone needs to animate this fight between two legends, but first: a few rules. My main focus here is what happened in canon. This is both for my sanity and to avoid writing a novel instead of an article.  I’m …

No, but he did undergo a couple of name changes. One of which gave him a first name: Minch Yoda. Minch Yoda was used for a few years in early scripts, and as a result, many fans believe this was an earlier version of Yoda. However, there is a comic with a Minch Yoda in …

Yoda is a formidable Jedi, one who displays a wide range of Force abilities and general bad-ass-ery.  There seems to be no limit to what Yoda is capable of and his Force powers are many. His telekinetic abilities are unrivaled and his lightsaber skills are legendary. Buth these are just two examples of the Force …

Yoda failed to stop the Jedi Order from suffering a horrific fate. And during the waning moments in Revenge of the Sith, he believed a self-imposed exile on Dagobah would help him atone his failures. As part of this exile, Yoda never wielded his lightsaber again.  Yoda’s sense of guilt in his failures to save …

Yoda is known as a small, but mighty Jedi Master. He was born about 900 years before the climactic Battle of Endor in Star Wars Episode 6: Return of the Jedi.  Yoda became a Jedi Master at the time of the Galactic Republic, when the Jedi reigned supreme. He was short in stature, but tall …

Before we discovered his name, we knew Grogu as either the Child or Baby Yoda. Perhaps Baby Yoda is a more accurate assumption than we initially thought.  Grogu and Yoda share a lot of similar traits. And given the rarity of the species, evidence exists that Yoda is Grogu’s dad.  Grogu’s high Force-sensitivity and midi-chlorian …

Yoda grew frail in his old age and was rarely seen without hunching over his cane. But when it was time to duel, he transformed into an acrobatic titan capable of defeating Sith Lords in lightsaber combat within minutes.  Yoda was well-versed in Force speed and wielding the Force to flow through his body, explaining …

Grogu, affectionately known as Baby Yoda or The Child, is one of the most adorable Star Wars characters.  Of course, Baby Yoda is a part of the same species as Jedi Grand Master Yoda. Unfortunately for us, that species isn’t exactly known.  As a Jedi Initiate, Baby Yoda was raised in the Jedi Temple with …

Yoda faced some antagonistic opponents throughout his lifetime, and we caught a taste of his skills when he battled Count Dooku and Darth Sidious. Yoda prevailed in both lightsaber duels and held his own in Force lightning battles, proving he can take anyone in his old age.  But can he beat a man who took …

Yoda believed emotional attachments would put Jedi in danger of falling to the dark side. But did he believe his species was an exception?  Since it’s believed that Yoda’s species was so rare in the galaxy, it further means the Jedi Order could have granted him an exception, allowing him to marry Yaddle out of …

Yoda was a Jedi Master who, despite his age, wowed audiences with his acrobatics during the Prequel Trilogy. So how did Yoda become so well-versed, even at his old age, in lightsaber combat? It stems from his preferred fighting form.  Yoda mastered all fighting forms, but he preferred Ataru, or Form IV. And he did …

Despite the infamous roles of Frank Oz, Wendy Froud, Kathryn Mullen, and Nick Maley, Yoda is not a muppet. He was the most advanced puppet of his time. George Lucas originally came to Jim Henson for help in making Yoda, but, (Henson), was busy running the Muppets and getting ready to work on The Dark …

Yoda is an interesting character. He used this cane called a gimer stick, yet when he engaged in lightsaber combat, he was capable of performing acrobatic maneuvers like front flips. Following lightsaber duels, he reverted back to his feeble movements while leaning over the stick.  Yoda received the gimer stick as a gift from the …

If you’ve spent more than a few minutes watching Yoda on screen, you’re bound to notice some oddities in his physique that go further than just the standard alien persona. Everything from his height to his skin color makes him seem like an unknown alien being, but also strangely familiar.  Some of Yoda’s features are …

The ability to heal is arguably one of the most important skills an individual can contribute to his community.  Whether it be the military or just a country in general, there is a sense of comfort that comes from knowing that there is someone out there who can help you if need be.  Certainly, George …

Yoda wasn’t one to engage in fear and hate. But it didn’t stop him from feeling that way regarding Count Dooku’s lightsaber.  No one knew Dooku like Yoda, having served as his Jedi Master. So what was it that made Yoda so disdainful of the Sith Lord’s curved-hilted saber? Count Dooku’s lightsaber fit his Makashi, …

Yoda and Darth Vader were two of the strongest Force-sensitives in the galaxy both shortly before the fall of the Republic and after the rise of the Galactic Empire. Yoda defeated Count Dooku and forced Darth Sidious to abandon his lightsaber.  But did he get around to beating Vader? Yoda and Darth Vader never fought, …

Unfortunately, death is arguably the most natural thing in life. Just as easily as someone can come into the world, they can be taken out.  Given how much war occurs daily within George Lucas’ Star Wars universe, death is an integral part of the galaxy.  Naturally, every person deals with grief in their own way. …

Jedi Master Yoda may look far fetched as a green alien lifeform, but his basic anatomy is more similar to humans than you may think. He still resembles earthlings in some ways, and even has realistic human facial features.  Despite his short stature, long ears, green skin, and jagged claws, he’s not so different from …

Traveling through the galaxy is a task that most people take part in throughout their lives in the Star Wars universe.  No one knows this better than Jedi Grand Master Yoda, who made great expeditions through the galaxy.  Whether they are a Jedi, Sith, bounty hunter, or any other person for that matter, you would …
