But seeing as the "Bad Batch" Unit 99 is a rather unique one, it would be interesting to see which would stand stronger: The word of a Captain from the battle-hardened and later on even considered elite 501st Battalion (regulars) which has a Jedi General (Skywalker) against the word of a Sgt. from an elite though irregular unit which does not even have a proper Jedi General. I know many fans like irregular characters as they definitely add up to the story. But in strict military terms, the word of an experienced Captain with a Jedi General stands quite strong against a Sgt. of irregulars when you consider the military supporters they do/don't have - Jedi Generals, amount of men under their charge, overall battle reports, opinion from Republic officials and possibly Senators...yes, a lot to think about, and rather waste of time if you'd ask me.

@@captain-commander8138 LOL! I'm thinking more like 501th a star wars story, or The raise of captain Rex. It would show how Rex got his name and became the captain of the 501th.

@@captainrex5934 What you've done in your life; you've certainly earned such high respect. Few people can be considered to be living legends Captain, I'm sure you're among the best of those few. You served The Republic greatly, even if it didn't reward you for your service.
I love how Rex paid attention and remembered everything he ever learned from the Jedi and was able to pass it on to Ezra. A man who was programmed to kill Jedi and ended up being able to teach them
13:10 "Oh no, the war- it's not over!" This is one of the only instances of real PTSD in Star Wars, Rex has been through a lot and it shows through more than just his grey beard.
Saw: “I always they forget they can do that” Rex: “yeah but hes no Skywalker” Kanan: “I HEARD THAT” Kanan and Rex’s relationship throughout rebels was gold
9:42, I always love this part of the movie because Rex knew that she was trying to use the force to persuade him to call Anakin out of of hiding so that's why he said Anakin instead of General Skywalker because she had said "you will contact General Skywalker now" while he clinched his fist knowing that he could warn him. Stronger than the average clone.
I'm pretty sure he didn't decide to say "Anakin" and instead it was Ventress who told him to say that during the mind trick. That's what made Anakin realize Captain Rex was being mind tricked. If it were really Rex he would have addressed him as "General Skywalker." Ventress didn't think that one through.
@@McKayPorter in the comics, it is made clear that he resisted Ventress’s mind trick, and acted in order to avoid being killed immediately. In Clone Wars, he would address Anakin by rank (out of respect),so it was a shock to both Ahsoka, and Anakin when he didn’t in that scene. Since he already knew that Anakin, and Ahsoka were hiding, they were tipped off to trouble when he requested Anakin’s location.
I know! I literally cry every single time. My logic for Star Wars is that it’s all fun and games until Rex, Ahsoka or Obi-wan start crying. Then shit gets real.
Rex is probably the most relatable clone of them all. And that is perhaps because he survives all the way to episode 6. The way he felt about the war is much like the way veterans felt about veitnam, and more recent wars like iraq and afghanistan. Ezra represents the curious kid who missed out on the entire war. Grew up without war. It's so good, they portray veterans so well. Rex was a hell of a soldier, and a good man. o7
If Rex taught us anything, it's that good soldiers follow order, but the best soldiers do what's right in spite of the orders they're given. The best men have to learn to make their own decisions and to always fight for what's right. Everyone nay not always agree on what's right, but no one can ask more of you than to stand up for what you believe in.
Fun fact: It was mentioned at the end of Star Wars Rebels that Rex fought in the battle of Endor. And if you watch Star Wars Episode 6 and have a closer look on the rebel fighters you will see that one of them really looks like the old captain Rex.
That scene with Rex dreaming and he calls Kanen “Cody” always makes me sad. Rex never got closure where Cody was concerned. I’d have loved to see Rex and Cody meet up again, but I’d be sad too because Cody still had his chip and went with the Empire, it would have broken Rex’s heart to fight Cody. I do wonder who would win, I say Rex, but I don’t know if that’s because Rex is/was better than Cody, or because Rex is my favourite. I’m reading an AMAZING fanfic, in it Rex pushes for the Jedi to investigate what Fives said. They find out about Order 66, the 501 and 212 get their chips removed and they stay loyal to the Republic and the Jedi. It’s SO FUCKING GOOD! 28 chapters in it, I’m on chapter 24, and it’s getting INTENSE!!!!!
I always forget that Rex is 4 years younger than Ahsoka (It was said in the novelisation of the clone wars film that Ahsoka was 14 and that Rex was 10)
"What if I AM choosing the life I want?! What if I'm staying in the army because it's meaningful to me? Because I'm part of the most pivotal moment in the history of the Republic. If we fail, then our children and their children could be forced to live under an evil I can't well imagine!" Poor Rex... he had such a legitimately strong belief in what he was doing and had zero clue that it was all for nothing the entire time until it was too late. All that fighting and sacrifice and his worst fear came true anyway... The sheer depression from that would absolutely crush me to dust. But even after all that Rex still found the resolve to fight against the Empire into his elderly age. Much like how Obi-Wan is an example of a pure Jedi, Rex is the perfect example of a pure warrior. The end of the line won't stop him from continuing to fight until he dies.
It's wild seeing Fives asking Rex is that what he was engendered to think back on Umbara .Then uncovered the plot, and tried to tell Rex. Order 66 happens Rex tells Ahsoka to find Fives.....brilliant writing
You should definitely try Fives, Padme, Anakin/Vader, and Ahsoka, but it wouldn't hurt if you added live action quotes that way you could do those of Luke, Leia, Finn, and Rey
Rex standing up to wrecker is just amazing. Rex and fives I feel are the two strongest clones in the show ( I know the bad batch have extra abilities so to speak , but Rex and fives seem to have a different mindset from other clones)
After all the Clone Wars episodes and everything, that scene between Anakin and Rex in the move then ends in "The mission always comes first, sir" just becomes that much more impactful
5:30 “Listen, everyone always thinks the time their living is most epic. The most important age to end all ages. But heroes and tyrants rise and fall, and historians sort out the pieces….. But don't start thinking this war-your war, is more important than any other war just because you're in it.” -Jolee Bindo

Much like how Obi-Wan is an example of a pure Jedi, Rex is the perfect example of a pure warrior. The end of the line won't stop him from continuing to fight until he dies.
"The great quotes of: Captain rex"
Literally everything hes said at all.
There’s not a lot that could possibly influence me to join the military in any capacity, but Rex is one of them
"In my book, experiencce outranks everything" words to live by.
It's wild seeing Fives asking Rex is that what he was engendered to think back on Umbara .Then uncovered the plot, and tried to tell Rex. Order 66 happens Rex tells Ahsoka to find Fives.....brilliant writing
You should definitely try Fives, Padme, Anakin/Vader, and Ahsoka, but it wouldn't hurt if you added live action quotes that way you could do those of Luke, Leia, Finn, and Rey
@@odst7973 didn't happen. Won't ever happen
@@Ketser1505 honestly if they had different directors and no Kathleen Kennedy they would have been fine
@@odst7973 cmon man you don't want a compilation of Finn just screaming "REY!"
@@Al_Thor that already exists
welp... david prowse had die so im going to ask for darth vader quote next in memory of david prowse
Rex standing up to wrecker is just amazing. Rex and fives I feel are the two strongest clones in the show ( I know the bad batch have extra abilities so to speak , but Rex and fives seem to have a different mindset from other clones)
13:10 The PTSD for him, the nostalgia for us all
I loved Rex in Rebels. He gave Ezra some good Force related advice despite being a clone.
This is why he’s the most badass clone
When I grow up, I wanna be captain Rex
We all do my friend
4:07 That was the most devious look Obi-wan has ever given.
I can't kill you but I can have him kill you for me. 😆
the moment you realize a jedi and 3 clones are 20 times more powerfull than some of the best legions of storm troopers
Rex is more than just a Clone Captain, he has the whole region on his back supporting him. Literally is a GOAT in Star Wars for sure.
After all the Clone Wars episodes and everything, that scene between Anakin and Rex in the move then ends in "The mission always comes first, sir" just becomes that much more impactful
rex is the fictional embodiment of what every soldier and man should be
5:30 “Listen, everyone always thinks the time their living is most epic. The most important age to end all ages. But heroes and tyrants rise and fall, and historians sort out the pieces….. But don't start thinking this war-your war, is more important than any other war just because you're in it.” -Jolee Bindo
* Kanan jumps across a bridge *
Saw: I always forget they can do that
Rex: Yeah... but he’s no Skywalker
Best quote 😂
What if every human was like rex the world would be a wonderful place then
Yes, yes it would be
If we would all kill unarmed people the world would be beteer?
@@unbrokenbrony5618 no but if every human had the personality of rex
@@unbrokenbrony5618 unarmed and innocent aren’t the same thing
If every human was like Rex the world would look like Kamino without the Kaminoans.
"It's Captain, Sir." That line was so awesome.
6:10 My favorite rex quote: "wooAAAAAAAAAAH"
I like the voice actor for Rex. He really brought more character to the already great captain.
All of the clones have the same voice actor
Together with Luke, Vader, and the Imperial March. The most iconic character.
i'm missing one of the better ones.
Kanan: you shoot just like a stormtrooper.
Rex: Its the helmet I CANT SEE. *trows the helmet*
Rex... That one trooper that attacked a bad batch member and walk away unscathed. Literal badass.
Agent Kallus (as I know him): "Why would she give command to you? I commanded Star Destroyers."
Cpt Rex: "Well I'd say you answered your own question then."
Way to go Cpt Rex!
And if I remember correctly, Khallus shifts seats after that great comeback.
"You're shorter than I expected"
I just realized: Echo’s handprint came from Rex when he was a shiny! My heart 💜
How convenient that the blood of Rishi eels is 501st blue, eh?
"Permission to take point, sir?"
"I'm always first, kid."
Man, Rex always puts himself in danger before his men, the sign of a very good leader.

Rex and Kenobi are by far my two favorite star wars characters, they're just so freaking amazing!
I swear Rex is legit the best and funniest character as well as the 2nd sassiest, 2nd to Ahsoka on the sass
amazing to think that Rex survived all the clone wars, as well as right up into the last battle of the galactic civil war. A true veteran.
4:28 "I honour my code, that's what I believe". Without answering Fives' question, Rex shows he is not engineered
Love how he’s not scared of wrecker
I hope Rex eventually found out that Ahsoka survived Malachor. That would be so sad if he thought she was dead up until his own death
Captain Rex is my favourite non Jedi/Sith character in the Star Wars universe
“Look, I don’t doubt you can pull it off, but I don’t thin fives and I will be around to see it”. One of the few times Rex talked to Anakin on an informal and rankless way
Girl#1: I can't believe that he didn't cry at titanic.
Girl#2: don't boys ever have emotions?
Boys: 9:03
Why must you invoke his name why must you invoke 5ths
“Roger roger” is his best quote
“Find him, Fives. FIND HIM!”
Man I wanna see some live action Captain Rex
All the Clones were great Men. I love them.
Captain rex is a excellent soldier for the battlefield he fought for his brothers and that's why i like he
Never noticed how fives didn't have his tubes in his helmet for one part at 14:20
13:55: “It’s Captain, sir”
Rex is awesome, brave and tenacious with balls of steel standing up to an asshole Jedi like Krell.
CT-7567, Captain Rex is the prime example of what being a good soldier is! That’s why he’s my favorite!
