He obviously has the right to his own opinion, but it would help if he actually gave the impression of watching the films thoroughly.

To quote:

"The force was only a little bit about talent and more about training: Obi-Wan offers to teach it to Han"

This simply does not happen anywhere, neither in the films nor in the now de-cannoned EU.

He also gets the plotlines of Ep. II and III quite mixed up in a few paragraphs about Yoda, and fails to realise that the Republic is hardly modelled on a modern-day parliamentary democracy but rather the fatally flawed Weimar Republic.

While this doesn't necessarily invalidate his trains of thought, it certainly makes their basis scientifically dishonest.
