    Q – SHOULD FUTURE STAR WARS PLOTS INVOLVE TIME TRAVEL?
    A – NO, THEY SHOULD NOT.

      Agreed. I’m all for new things in canon and thought Star Wars was different and unique in sci-fi for not including it. I do have to say in this case in the episode of Rebels that it didn’t seem very out of place for me. It was cool how it was used, but I’d lke it to not be part of anything in the future.

        Right on, do you listen to our podcast? We all had varying views on it, but I side with your sentiment here. If you haven’t listened to the show check it out. We put out two episodes a week now too! Thanks

    To me, there are two no-gos for SW. A universal time machine that kann be controlled by a forceuser at will. This would open up all kinds of plotholes that I don’t want to have to dela with. The way they dealt with this in rebels was fine, but if they plan on doing this in future movies there need to be rules. For example it is only possible if the living force itself allows it which means you can’t change your fate unless the force deems it necessary. The second no-go would be a star wars character visiting our real world like they did in this one Star Trek movie.

      I agree. I shared similar sentiments on the show! Do you listen to the podcast?

    I really really hope they don’t introduce more time travel elements into future Star Wars stories. I do like that all the different movies, shows, books, and games have elements that are interwoven together, but this is one thing I would be happy if they don’t bring into any of the movies. JJ already used the time travel concept for the Star Trek Reboot. There are plenty of other Sci-fi movies that use time travel. Star Wars SHOULD NOT be one of them. No thanks.

    Leave time travel out of SW please. Or at least don’t create impossible paradox to mind after.

    I don’t think time travel would be popular. They’d eventually end up using it to mess with stuff people don’t want messed with- like going back to the OT period and changing the timeline.

    I’d rather it was left out completely, but if it was to be implemented the only way I could see it working would be if it was in a very limited way.

    Absolutley not. It today’s hollywood, all it does is give them an excuse to be like: “well we messed it up..so lets’ just do a soft time travel reboot. We’ll days of future past it, yeah that’s a good idea.”

    Only in the way Terminator original was, so that if you go back in time its basically a loop and you create the future that you came from in the first place.

    I think its a minefield to do right personally and it should be avoided.

    They have already screwed up using a ship at light speed to destroy something big, er Death Star 1&2.
    DONT let these people go anywhere near Star Wars!!!!!!!!!!

    It doesn’t suit. Star Wars is gritty reality, not Science Fiction.
    Even the way it was portrayed in Rebels made it look like a machine someone had built instead of representing the natural connectedness of the force. If it were natural it would not have been graphic designed like the Jedi temple

      Really? Star Wars is “gritty reality?”

  • March 6, 2018 at 7:26 am

    Yes. This is a plot device that could give us the Star Wars vs Star Trek film that we all want to see. We can see Captain Kirk and Rey together in same film. Awesome

    Yes. In particular for Episode IX. They should use it to go back prior to the events of TLJ and fix the mess they have done with the Luke Skywalker character.

    Time travel, in a sense, has been in Star Wars for a very long time. Right under our noses. Since 1980.

    Yoda told Luke that through the Force, he would see “the future, the past…” and Luke immediately has a vision of his friends being tortured.

    Meanwhile some days in the future, Darth Vader – who has NO idea whatsoever where Luke is – is shocking the crap out of Han and giving Chewie a splitting sonic headache and probably keeping Leia in unpleasant solitary confinement or whatever. Leia wonders why they are being treated like this. Han replies that “they never even asked me any questions”.

    Because interrogation or pain for its own sake wasn’t the point. Vader was torturing them so that Luke IN THE PAST would sense their pain IN THE FUTURE.

    Vader HAD to torture Han and Leia and Chewie, not for Luke ahead in time could pick up in it, but that Luke behind him in time could see it through the Force. Had Vader not done that, Luke would not have come to him.

    The Force has long had an impact on time, and Vader knew it and exploited it all the way in The Empire Strikes Back.

    It’s been in plain sight the whole time.

      Luke’s visions (even Anakin’s visions) were pictures from the future. If Filoni & Co can keep time travel like that, I would be happy. What I do not like is going into the future/past and altering it. Who’s going to stop Kylo Ren from finding that Rebels portal and killing Luke before the Emperor dies?

    I’d prefer SW to stay away from time travel. It’s established that it’s possible to ‘see’ (all emotions the future is). But travel ?, I think they should stay clear of.

    The mistake is NOT envolve time travel, since light speed doenst happen without time travell,

    Yeah, time travel to right before TLJ or even TFA and pretend that crap never happened.
