Even if the expanded universe has taken the time to answer some burning questions, the Star Wars films are absolutely packed with fascinating mysteries, some of which may never be addressed again. Here are just some of the biggest questions Star Wars has yet to answer. The prequel trilogy is all about charting the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker from boy with tons of potential to hotshot Jedi to Dark Lord of the Sith. That all begins with Qui-Gon Jinn’s realization that Anakin, whose midichlorian ratings and natural talents seem off the charts, must be the Chosen One. When he relays his suspicions to the Jedi Council, Mace Windu brings up, quote, «the prophecy of the one who will bring balance to the Force.» Yoda, Mace, Qui-Gon, and Obi-Wan Kenobi are all very aware of this prophecy, and Anakin’s Chosen One narrative continues right up to the moment he loses his lightsaber duel with Obi-Wan in Revenge of the Sith. So, the prequels are very clear that a prophecy exists and that it’s well-known among Jedi Masters, but what the films don’t make clear is exactly where the prophecy comes from. Who first articulated it? How long has it been around? Does every Jedi take it seriously or do a lot of them believe it’s made-up hogwash that has no practical application when it comes to protecting the galaxy? And what does «bring balance to the Force» even mean when the Jedi believe that they’ve long-since defeated the Sith? The original trilogy makes it a bit of a point to never explain much about Yoda, the enigmatic Jedi Master who lives on the swamp planet of Dagobah and even pretends he’s not who he really is when he first meets Luke Skywalker, just to teach the young apprentice a lesson in expectation versus reality. Keep watching the video to see how Star Wars movies never answer these major questions!
