Content

As the name suggests, the channel originally began with "Theory" (his nickname) presenting theories regarding the mysteries that were set up by Star Wars: The Force Awakens. From there, the channel has grown and evolved over the years, with recurring motifs and series such as Star Wars Explained, a narration of many of the Star Wars comics, animated (and often humorous) fan fictions, and many others. His 2018 fan film Vader Episode I: Shards of the Past has received praise from among the Star Wars fanbase and has been viewed over 23 million times on YouTube as of April 2021.[3]

One of the features of his channel is to make predictions in Star Wars media.[4][5]

Online response

In December 2020, Star Wars Theory was involved in a controversy with Lucasfilm Story Group executive Pablo Hidalgo.[6][7][8] Hidalgo was criticized for privately tweeting "emotions are not for sharing", allegedly mocking Star Wars Theory’s emotional YouTube video reaction to the season 2 finale of The Mandalorian.[6] After the tweet became public, Hidalgo apologized and clarified that the tweet was meant to be sarcastic.[6]
