What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
I always wonder what the name of Yoda's race? So does anybody have any official name of his race?

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
There is, to date, no official name other than "Yoda's race."

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
Yes, much like Frieza, the race he hails from is just named after the only prominent "canon" character.
Even if Arcosian and Tridactyl are way better names than "Frieza Race" and "Yoda Race".

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
So there's no official race for Yoda at all? Might as well made one up: Adoy!

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
Two theories that I like is that Yoda is what a human looks like when they are so attuned to the Force they reach 900 years old or that Yoda’s species is called jedi just like there was a sith species before there was an Order.
Well I’m convinced.

I hope we never find out. Both EUs tend to be bad at this kind of thing.

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
Depends on where you are in Europe. In the Netherlands it launched at the same time as in the US, and they gave us a full month free to watch pretty much all the back catalog stuff including some pretty new movies (Endgame and I think the new Aladdin and Lion King were missing, but that's about it). Not any of the new Disney+ exclusive content though. That all went live after the free month finished.
The downside is of course that we got a downsize of our Netflix content. (Apparently streaming rights in the Netherlands are sort of weirdly disconnected from television rights in ways they aren't in other countries, which means that due to a lack of competition pretty much anything not made with money from any of our domestic television channels and put up on their own limited streaming channels has been pretty cheap to scoop up for Netflix. This is why our Netflix catalog has always been one of the best filled ones, and it's most likely also why Disney+ decided to include us in the launch.)The Hindsight Awards, results: See the best movies of 1999!

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
Numerous plot issues in the prequels, numerous dialogue issues in the prequels, the entire character concepts of Zito the Hutt and Jar Jar Binks, deciding that "guy with a gun pulled on you who has just directly said he's pretty much going to kill you" is an innocent that has to actually shoot in order for his death to not be a cold-blooded murder, if you want to go as early as possible I'll toss in the Holiday Special, OKing storyline involving Boba Fett's origins and then changing those origins years later, etc. etc.

Muppet. Obviously. ^^
A neutron walks into a bar and says, “How much for a beer?” The bartender says, “For you? No charge.”

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
Oh i totally agree on this one, some of them are very badly written.
This is my main critic of Episode 3, actually, that i overall like.
the entire character concepts of Zito the Hutt
Or his son?
and Jar Jar Binks,
deciding that "guy with a gun pulled on you who has just directly said he's pretty much going to kill you" is an innocent that has to actually shoot in order for his death to not be a cold-blooded murder,
if you want to go as early as possible I'll toss in the Holiday Special,
OKing storyline involving Boba Fett's origins and then changing those origins years later, etc. etc.
I overall agree with you on your points, but i also think that overall, Lucas gave us better stuffs than Disney.
Disney gave us Rogue One, Rebels, and the Mandalorian (who is as of yet a good show, let's hope it will last).
But Rebels was already in preparation before the sell to Disney AFAIK, and Disney also "gave" us TFA, TLJ, Resistance and Solo. And Solo was probably the less bad of this things.Last edited by Petrocorus; 2019-11-28 at 11:12 AM.

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
I think the Sith species hasn't been brought over from the old EU, and there I also believe that Jedi was meant to be a corruption of Jei'Dai or something similar, who were the original Force Adept order that attempted to balance Light and Dark.
But I really like that idea.
I've described it before as making no difference to the story, but making a big difference to perceived characterisation. I get why he changed it, but it does make the film flow slightly worse.

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
There is something to be said about leaving things unsaid, and the Star Wars EU was obsessed with filling in every possible nook and cranny. And then doing it again, in a way that contradicted the previous attempt. The more it did so, the more apparent it became that the original setting is paper-thin.

Re: What's The Name Of Yoda's Race?
Let's not forget how much of the OT's greatness was due to Lucas's editors putting a firm hand on his weirder ideas, either.
