- A 4K HDR sample from my Extended Star Wars Episode I Cut, simply titled "The Phantom Menace - Extended Edition". As of today, both cuts have now been updated to a new 2.0 version, featuring several minor tweaks in audio, updates to the HDR color timing (especially for Episode I), tweaks to transitions, and brand new A.I. upscales of many of the deleted scenes. A total of 7 deleted scenes have been restored in the film.
Note: The trimmed down version of the duel of the fates battle is only for the youtube upload. The version scene in the film cut itself won't be intercut in this same way.
Both of my Extended Episode I and II cuts are available in both 4K HDR and 1080p SDR, along with my other edits like the 4.5 hour Revenge of the Sith - The Siege of Mandaore Supercut the, Star Wars Episode IV - The Rogue Cut, and many more!

What is this?
Jar 🏺 Jar 🫙: Incoming!
Ah yes. The great windows xp battle.
Yeah the Gungans represent XP, whilst the Droid army is Windows Vista trying to force an upgrade.
@@megabyte1778 No he means the land feels like the Window XP background Home Screen.
@@randomvideas4306 you are correct sir/mam/good ol friend***
OMG it does 😆
Only boomers will understand the reference, tho.
Gen Zers won't know what OP is talking about.
More aspects of Lucas’s “used universe” that I love: the droids don’t just show up in infinite numbers. They have to be transported, arranged, and then activated. Logistics is so underrepresented in movies, and I’m not saying it’s realistic necessarily, but it’s nice to see.
I agree this battle had a more emeerce feeling with the droids as opposed to Kayshkk in episode 3 where the droids just came in droves
@@Jordannelson23i think for Kayshhk the droids where already activated before crossing the lake
@@hx20games77 You also see the landers coming down on the opposite side of the lake in the scene where Gree was informing Yoda.
Not to sound like a negative Nancy but it's pronounced Kashyyyk.
you are right, logistics are underrepresented. However in this case, for me, it ruins the whole scene. who in his right gungan mind would attack a deployed droid army. attack while they are being transported
It’s weird thinking Jar Jar probably had the highest kill count in that entire battle.
Cause hes the one who started it. Darth jar jar makes valkorion look weak
When he fights he does jack, when he runs, then the kill count starts racking.
you mean Darh Jar?
Well being a sith lord dose have its perks
Anikan…?
When the B1 Droids were actually terrifying. No silly punchlines and childish voice pitches. Cold metal, coming directly at you and start shooting.
I miss when they were like this
That's because these aren't B1's, these are OOM series battle droids.
b1s are more sentient while these were just controlled through that big control ship, so b1 are more convenient for not getting shut down when a command ship is destroyed
@@BX_Unit_874 OOMs weren't line droids but specialist rolls (CIC, sec, poilts ext) the real reason they got so silly was because they ended up in kid shows and just having a infinite blob of deep electronic voiced kill bots would have been over much given the base of the show was about a war. i just kind of hand wave and ignore that part of them
If the same guy would produce them for the C.I.S. The clones would be chanceless.
This is probably the most scary depiction of the battle droids. They just walk through the shield and instantly start shooting, the Gungans are doing their utmost to stop them but the droids just still keep coming straight at them
In wars like this or occupying a weak army or a planet with no armed forces the droids could easily takeover, but against a well trained for or Jedis they were pretty useless lol their saving grace was making up for it in sheer volume and overwhelm the opposing side
you would think with growing number of battle droids, why did the republic not make greater use of Ion weaponry to combat them?
@@RuneMasterKnight The energy used in those weapons were volatile and could only be sourced from naboo
@@davidbritt5020so the Ion canon on Hoth got it's energy from Naboo?
@@sjonnieplayfull5859 Something like that
Droids' formation, activation and marching are actually paradise for perfectionists
Agreed. The deployment and marching of the battle droids was perfect and appealing to see.
"Activate the droids"
"Yes sir" -accidentally presses the self destruction button.
"......Why do we keep that button so close to the one that activates them? Get a new unit ready. And DON'T hit the wrong button this time."
Directed by George Lucas
“Uh they’ve gone up the ventilation shaft”
“Why did we install this?!”
Ok we need an edit for this XD
Everyone asks "What about the Droid attack on the Wookies?" But noone asks "What about the Droid attack on Naboo?"
Which one?
All of them
Lmao thats literally the plot of this whole movie 😂
@@mcoolioo what about the clone attack on the jedi? lol
@@ladyriethegoldendelmo5441 Good soldiers follow orders lmao
Fun fact. The sound of the droid tank moving came from sound designer ben burtt running a electric razor though a metal salad bowl
its actually really good sound designe in the prequels.
That AAT gun sound is oddly satisfying
Right? That and the recoil on a repulsor lift platform has a really satisfying look. The way they gently sway backwards.
I love the varied sounds the main turret does.
But those two first shots at 0:16 sounds ridiculously cool it’s beyond any explanation.
No
Jar 🏺 Jar 🫙: What’s Happening?
You gotta hand it to the Gungan Army, they had balls. They chose to stand and fight and took to the open field against an enemy army which possessed tanks, armored transports, and a far larger force of battle droids. And they did this with nothing but a few shields, and hand-throwable and melee weapons. The droids poured tons of blaster fire at straight-up point blank range and the Gungans held their ground and took them on in hand-to-hand fighting not even Droideka could break them. It took the Trade Federation tanks bull-rushing the Gungan Army to get them to retreat after the shield came down, and they only did so at the orders of their commanders.
Aye. They literally fought with balls too!
Poor bastards needed bazookas and all they had was grenades. And still they fought.
I'd forgotten how the droid attack on the Gungan shields was like the Dune shields: energy weapons couldn't get through but slow-moving droids could.
Kudos to them. Their assignment was essentially to gigantic diversion. They knew what was being asked of them; it would cost them heavily in casualties to sell it to the Trade Federation that they were a legitimate threat and not a simple distraction.
blue balls to be exact.🍆🫐🫐
4:11 I like the detail where the little droids collect the remains of the battle droids. In the 2008 Clone Wars, the Separatists left the destroyed droids on the planet Iego and after the Dathormir massacre they left it all behind.
I think those are called PK droids. You can also see them walking in groups in the hallways of the Droid control ship. They're the construction workers/repair droids/mechanics of the Trade Federation.
Thats because the clone wars is ass
@@skullthrower8904because....they left behind destroyed droids? Yeah Ill be sure to ignore your opinion, probably some fat 30 year old
In Phantom Menace - I would imagine it would be cheaper and faster to repair a Regiment of Battle droids by cannibalizing's other droids. Where as in the other films, it would be more economical to just replace entire battle groups of droids.
Literally just noticed this. Always wondered where tf that lil dude came from in the MTT Lego sets🤦♂️
1:21 each time I see this and hear the sounds the droids make mixed with the badass soundtrack, I get goosebumps. It’s so well done
Yeah also here! Its so good!
Bruh, it starts at 1:15
Idk why they made them so slender if they were just a little wider theyd be very terrifying
Maybe they were supposed to be futuristic skeleton warriors but even in Jason they moved faster were more competent
1:00
Looks like the middle Gungan forgot which button activated the shield and had to look at the guy next to him to see which one.
"Sorry guys, meesa reenlist yesterday, isa little rusty"
24 years later and I finally realized the reason the shield exists:
It's not for the droids. It's anti-ARTILLERY and anti-fighters. I used to think it was really silly they could just walk through it.
😮😮😮😮 shit!!! You're right!! The gungans are practical!
It's because they wanted to have a 40k "line up and shoot" battle, ye
Imagine the destruction from that initial volley from the tanks if they didn't have the shield.
Like the shield generator in hoth. No bombardment of any kind so they have to send ground troops.
Room temperature IQ
2:20 One thing I appreciate about Gungans: They will go fisticuffs with solid metal robots and not give a fuck. "Oh, you got blasters and tanks? This is what we like to call CQB."
As amusing as that is, it's also completely pointless unless they somehow manage to knock the droid's head off, or have enough strength to tear it in half.
Still, that's three times now that I've seen someone in Star Wars try to fist-fight a Droid. XD
@@theterrorofdimensions1326 I imagine the Gungans aren't used to fighting droids, which is why they largely fight wars the old-fashioned way. It looks like one of them in the top left is beating a droid with its own arm, so they're probably figuring it out.
@@HylianSith920 That may be true, but another thing that bugs me is that their choice of battlefield was a pretty poor one, even if they are meant to be a diversion for the main Droid Army.
They basically made themselves sitting ducks on an open field, against an enemy with superior numbers and firepower. That could only have ever ended in disaster, which it did the moment the shields were destroyed.
Diversion or not, it would have made more sense to try and fight closer to the swamps or forests, so if the Droids tried to follow after them, they wouldn't have been able to bring their tanks or at the least would have had significant trouble engaging the Gungans.
@@theterrorofdimensions1326 Imagine a prequel trilogy with actual military strategy
Itd be amazing
@@theterrorofdimensions1326 True, but you have to remember that their only military experience is fighting against the Naboo, whose military forces pretty much consist of cops and an extremely small national security force. They barely have armed speeders, let alone actual tanks and artillery. As such, they could have used the tactics they used against the Naboo, thinking it would work against the droids.
2:09 The droidekas didnt even bother putting up their shields.
No, they couldn't. Some early Droidekas didn't have shields. Later on during the Clone Wars they consistently did though.
@@Gamerguy826all droidekas had shields in this movie, these 2 just didnt use them
Interference from the gungan shield?
@@SL-gh5pe I was going to say the same thing. Like there must have been some sort of disturbance, The Tanks could have entered the shield really slowly but they didnt.
@@ScorpionNova The ones that capture Padmé and her group when they infiltrate the palace also didn't have shields up.
1:33 The moment they would forever get the nickname of "Clanka"
2:25 The gungan on the left was giving that droid some mean right hooks
It was personal.
The one behind that one beat the bolts off that droid 😂💀
They're strong, Man can't do that, They alone charge the Catapult
Jar Jar really made this film, should’ve received an Oscar.
Fun fact: 2:51 is the only time in the entire series we see an AAT use its launch tubes
Omg you're right.
What about 3:34? If you look closely Jar Jar's kaadu is shot down by a shot from AAT launch tube
@@WhiteCrowa No. If you play it in slow motion, you can see the shot comes from the AAT’s lateral blaster cannon.
Chestnuts roasting on an 0:16
💀
XD
Wow. 😂
Can we talk about this absolute beast at 1:03 loadin that by himself. You know they have to be heavy if a pretty large catapult is only throwing it as far as it does, plus the small ones they can only throw 20 feet or so.
Swole gungan
They are strong, they fight in hand-to-hand combat, which a person cannot physically
@@Veni-Vidi-Vici-G.J.Caesarthey shouldve focused on that aspect more
They actually look capable unlike the wookies who get constant exposition of how badass they are
The sound effects of the tank lasers hitting the shield are still really cool.
1:55 That rider reaches for something then fall down. 😂 Darth Jar Jar wasn’t the only one.
He gets shot in the chest and falls.
I think he got shot
@@angryvaultguy 💀 damn
One of the rarest yet awesome scenes in starwars hand to hand combat with battle Droids
Seeing them slowly go over the hill is really intimidating with how silent it is. Its honestly kinds unnerving and eerie.
I forgot how good the sound design of this scene was. The sound of the AAT’s and Droid Carriers coming over the hill is legitimately frightening sounding. And the little details like the “stand clear” alarms as the droids are being off-loaded really ground this into reality.
I love the mechanism used to lower the droids. It’s one of the more satisfying details in the prequels
2:07 I used to think the catapult did nothing but hit a single target but that first one that fired must have had a dud cause the one on the left here wipes out an entire three rows/columns of droids.
I just love how the battledroids get off loaded out of the MTT, a single one carries alot of droids.
This was showed 25 years ago. Now I get to see it again... in theaters.
Yes, almost every theater is showtiming this one single money making film after 25 years. Used to watch this on VHS tapes.
Captain later General Tarpals is an underrated badass. He was even able to subdue General Grievous in a sacrifice play! (RIP)
More people should talk about him. He's definitely one of my favourite characters
@@yourlocalkid123 He deserves better recognition
God that scene was stupid
Nope, never happened. 08 clone wars was garbage fanfic with a bright nugget every now and then, but on the whole the show sucked so hard
@@kevinfanning8027 nah, most of the show was awesome and added so much depth to the prequel era. It had its stupid moments now and then, but overall it was really good.
Can I just say... This was a great film!
It feels more fleshed out than the other two cause it started in actual pen and paper
This would have been a cool battle without the comic relief. Imagine the gungans slowly losing ground and retreating until the B-1s just shut off randomly. It could have been a tense and exciting battle.
No it’s still a cool battle. The comic stuff was brief
@@joshuawillis602 Denial, denial... It's awful and your rose colored glasses needs a cleaning. Jar Jar- a main character -is a failure, except for the technical accomplishments. The battle has some cool shots and good music, but the script is just terrible.
Still, seen in the light of what Disney later did with the franchise, I'm willing to let it go and be content with Lucas own work here.
@@AndersLercheFX it’s not denial it’s truth. The script is fine you exaggerate too much. Jar Jar clumsiness is not just for comic relief it actually serves a purpose. Also that last remark about Disney proves your opinion relies solely on bandwagon mentality. You were probably one of the mindless drones hating on the prequels without knowing why and now that the sequels are the center of attention you’ve shifted your mindless hate to them. Your opinion holds little value
what purpose does it serve here?@@joshuawillis602
Add in a few scenes of Gungans actually dying painfully, while the droids feel no pain and no instinct for mercy. Maybe a shot of a Gungan screaming about his wife and kids back home and trying to run away, only to be shot by another Gungan soldier, who realized that letting any hint of desertion/mutiny go unpunished would destroy the morale of the entire army. This could have been crazy if it was aimed for adults and not kids. But then my generation would not have had the chance to enjoy it as kids.
Jar Jar is secretly very good with killing droids. 😂
I know this is just a movie, and in the lore the Trade Federation was all powerful through bribes and droid army. Yet I still cannot fathom how no one in a whole galaxy did not volunteer to fight for the Naboo.
They probably wanted to but that kind of thing takes time and the battle was over by the time they could show up
mostly of the Republic members didn't even have an army at that time. plus, no one knew that the Queen was planning to fight them in battle
Republic is in decline, the last major war was over 1000 years ago.
Most planets now had militias and basic armies.
Nothing compared to eras past.
1:31
I say the same thing when starting a deathmatch on Battlefront II.
This sh*t looks so good. The droids and tanks in particular, and omg those big booma’s bouncing off the wagon, crazy
3:07 This part was really funny. And combined with the boomer thingy door opening sounding like a cartoon sound effect, It's EVEN FUNNIER!
The General was covering the retreat 😂👍
It's neat how the clanking of the droids marching in formation has been used the same way every time they've appeared.
A, yes, the famous Windows wallpaper battle
I miss the old Droid voices
11 year old me saw this back in 99 greatest childhood of watching the beginning of Star Wars
1:15 seeing all those droids activate is really scary, especially with the music kicking in, really can give a sense of dread
1:27 I always loved the sound of them grabbing their guns
And to think this is the guy who saved Grogu.
what?
He is the Best! Here’s to Ahmed
@@therobloxplayer5556if I follow correctly, the voice actor for Jar-Jar returned as the Jedi who helped Grogu (baby Yoda) escape the Jedi Temple during Order 66 in the Mandalorian tv series.
@@BrowncoatGofAZ it's also mentioned that jedi had help from Naboo. So it's likely *both* of Ahmed's roles had a part in saving Grogu.
That shot of the Battle Droid's heads coming up at 1:24 is easily one of my favorites in the whole movie
Ah one of the best Star Wars movies ever made
Definitely top 10 of the main series
Most iconic scene in star wars
I mean, not the most but certainly very much iconic in the prequel era
“Just like the simulations”
After 24 years, I just now noticed Gungans wrestling hand to hand with a few of the droids... Lol
Am i the only one who never noticed the small white droids
PK worker droids i think they’re called. Yeah i never noticed em before too
Where were they?
@AA-jp9cj The PKs can be seen at 4:12 cleaning up destroyed B1s.
I saw them, but sadly they're often completely forgotten about. They're called PK droids. They're Trade Federation mechanic/worker droids.
2:33 Greatest Force-user ever
The battle of Naboo has four important parts that all go through similar atmospheres. By that I mean they all share a point where they do well at first and then things go bad and then they eventually become triumphant. For this part with the gungans they do well diverting the droid army’s attention with their shields and energy spheres. For the second part the Jedi are fighting well against Maul and mostly holding their own. For the third part Anakin destroys 3 Droidekas as he takes off and survives well for a bit in the space battle. For the fourth part the Queen and her group make good progress to Gunray. Then things start to go bad for all of them. The gungans are overwhelmed and their shield is destroyed. Maul killed Qui Gon. Anakin is seemingly about to be captured while inside the federation battleship. The queen and her group are captured. Then they triumph. The queen outsmarts the Viceroy and captures him. Anakin destroys the battleship from the inside. The droids then disable as a result of the battleship’s destruction and the gungans celebrate. Obi Wan kills Maul.
Edit- - yes I know this comment is long but I love Star Wars
You're totally right, good analysis. It's the poetry that George Lucas uses a lot and the excellent way he uses pacing in his movies! :)
And things went bad cause druids are in the thousands, and they don't tire.
Anakin's autopilot was kinda OP in that battle, he survives for like 10 minutes without touching the controls much.
Even this one scene has more originality to it than any sequels battle
I absolutely love all of the droids moving in unison, it makes them even more intimidating because they appear that much more inhuman.
Remember when the Battle Droids were meant to be a wall of unceasing blaster fire coming from cold, unfeeling machines that will step over their own kind to attack you, instead of goofy cowards who can't besiege a candy bar?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.......
They had to make the B1 look bad so the new baddies(B2, commandos, magnaguards) could shine
@@granalmirantethrawn2972 Not even. The B1s were still cold and calculating until they later got turned into goofballs.
@@HolyknightVader999 I believe the reason in lore was that because of the glaring weakness that happened on Naboo where the loss of the control ship effectively wiped out their army, the B1s were given 'independent' droid AI of a sort allowing them to act freely without need for a Droid control ship and therefore eliminating the Achilles heel that was their control system.
That said turning them into complete buffoons and goofballs instead of having them be somewhat closer to the 'personality' of the B1s in the Phantom Menace was a complete moronic move from an entertainment point of view; but was likely done to appeal them to a younger audience as 'comic relief' of a sort.
I agree, But I do like the Lore reason behind it.
B1 on Naboo were defeated by knocking out the Control Ship, so going forwards there would be independent droid armies. But free thinking droids need memory wipes or they start to develop quirks. The Trade Federation, being massive cheapskates, don't bother to wipe their droids after long use. They prefer cheap hordes over small tactical groups. So the foot soldier B1's became goofballs.
Meanwhile the real money was invested into the B2, Commandos, and Droideka models.
Darth Jar Jar is a menace
Sad thing is that I still find this more thrilling than any of the battles in the Sequel Trilogy.
You sir are a god. This is the cleanest edit I have seen yet. Glorious. This edit really shows how one-sided the battle is in favor of the droid army.
To be honest the gungans were just to be a diversion and despite that they did surprisingly well in the odds against them
Its amazing how the CGI was in this movie.
3:46 and 3:52 really had me rolling on the floor laughing.
This is my favourite star wara film out of all of the star wars films
Looking back at this battle, you really can tell they put effort in the background details.
I remember the prequels with more fondness as I didn't grow up when the original trilogy came out.
The CGI still holds despite its very old provenance.
Also impressive to think Gungans are overpowering solid metal droids.
That takes lots of courage.
4:33
Battle Droid 1138.
It's a really weird battle. So many parts are ruined by the gungan goofiness ("ouch time"? Really Lucas?) but the music as the droids stand up is so cool. Their tanks are some of my favourite designs period. And their transports feel right out of a Miyazaki film.
Imagine staying in a queue days and nights to get premiere tickets... and then you see... this.
Gives you some perspective on life.
Killjoy
You joking? This is so cool
Yeah, this movie sucks monkey balls. What a complete deception it was. Lucas botched the prequels, no matter how much copium some try to apply to them. Star Wars died in 1983.
The droids in this movie were so much better. They were machines coming to kill you rather than useless goofballs
Because aotc is more darker than tpm and rots is even darker so the droids get sillier in each prequel movie
@@Azactthey weren’t really silly in attack of the clones actually.
The OOM-series droids didn't have as many processing problems as the B1-series droids did.
Multiple times they were portrayed this way
Best army in Star Wars
2:04 how anything can survive that is beyond me
I don't care what people say. Visually, this battle is amazing. Entertaining as well.
Love the aat. It looks like a really practical sci fi tank design.
"Ouch time!"
this came out when I was in 6th grade loved it ever since!
Sure this CGI might not be amazing now but I really don't get what 1999 audience were complaining about.
no one complained about the cgi. it was mind blowing back then
never seen anything like it
the droids are also practical
Never noticed the PK droids in the background at the end, pretty cool.
1:14 Good old colonizing .
Walking wall of blasterfire. Just awesome overwhelming military might!
This was my favorite battle. The Battle of Windows XP.
It still looks great
Notice in this movie that most of the droid technology depicted is the earliest battle-ready tech the CIS had and that there were subtle yet significant changes and improvements made like semi-sentience and personal shielding for destroyer droids as a result of this battle. Love ot when movie producers think of minor details like that.
Ah yes, gotta love the thumbnail with the B1 t-posing lol
May the 4th be with you and happy anniversary to episode 1
I love this so much
Jar jar totally isn't a sith lord using his powers.
3:46 Jar Jar really a clumsy 😂😂😂😂😂
One of the biggest weaknesses of the battle droids was their inability to think independently. When Jar Jar released the boomas, they were unable to dodge them or try to stop them.
I’ve only seen this raw strength only once before. It didn’t scare me enough then. It does now
How many hours did the droid commander spend between "Open fire" and "Cease fire" until he realized it might be time to change strategies?
4:00 background music name?
0:44 this part gives me shivers and I will never know why
Imagine waiting like 20 years for this movie to come out and this is the final battle 😂
I really loved this battle sequence. I don’t think we’ve seen anything like it before. A battle against aliens and a droid army, with droid battle ships and alien dinosaurs.
George Lucas was really cooking when he thought of this idea. It’s even more incredible when you factor out theres 3 other battle just as crazy happening at the same time.
amazing
The shields of the gungans are a very op weapon. He reflect blaster shots like lightsabers. :D
1:33 Oh, we march from here to there
The funny thing is that the B1s where at a numerical disadvantage in this battle yet still defeated the Gungans despite them even having plot armor.
When the Federation hover tanks chased after the Gungans, I seem to imagine the battle droids in them feeling a rush in chasing after their retreating foes while shouting 'TALLY HO!' even though I know that they lacked the programming to do either.....
