Hello There. Do you love or hate the prequels?
In my opinion, they succeeded in making a fun action adventure for kids. I love them for that, but I can totally get why they were underwhelming for some people.
I love the prequels. Even the worst one IMHO, Attack of the Clones, has so many iconic moments and great scenes. They also had a cohesive narrative between the three films, something that sets it apart from the sequels.
May the 4th be with you!
They will have a soft spot in my heart and I love them. But man oh man are they not good films 😂
I was 13 when The Phantom Menace came out. Just the right age to enjoy it. I remember thinking that the prequel movies were sillier than the original trilogy, but I still enjoyed them. I saw them as harmless fun.
One of the best parts of the prequel trilogy was the slick, engrossing world-building. Say what you will about George Lucas as a dialogue writer, but he's great at making a believable, lived in universe.
People rag on the dialogue, but it's just so quotable!
@@smartalec2001 I don't like sand, it's so gritty and quotable!
@@smartalec2001not only quotable, the stylistic dialogue is as much a part of SW as the production design, sfx, music, costumes, etc…it’s a space opera at heart. Making the sequels have MCU dialogue is just bland and forgettable imo
@@josephroush6055 the most operatic of space operas.
The Star Wars prequel is a pure masterpiece, they are the best, the greatest movies of all time, a great cult trilogy, exciting from start to finish, the best Star Wars trilogy ever made, the greatest Star Wars trilogy, the richest, the most complete, the best period, everything is superb : the deepening of the Star Wars universe and its narrative elements are superb and exciting, and it explores in detail the Clone Wars period, a crucial moment in Star Wars history 🔥😍 a fundamental and exciting pivotal period 🔥💥🔥 the Clone Wars period is the best Star Wars period 🥳🥰🤗😍🔥💥👍
The fascinating plot that develops throughout the movies. The rise to power of Palpatine, Darth Sidious, is masterfully depicted 🥰 His behind-the-scenes shenanigans to undermine the Galactic Republic and bring the galaxy under his control are meticulously presented. His manipulation to form a huge clone army and eradicate the Jedi with Order 66 is a central element of the story, explaining how the Galactic Empire took shape following the fall of the Republic and how Anakin switched to the dark side of the force in order to become Darth Vader 🔥💖 a fallen hero who just wanted to save those he loved 💥🔥 Anakin Skywalker's transformation into Darth Vader is a superb, memorable and breathtaking scene 😍💥 the link with the original trilogy is superbly done. Anakin's internal conflict between his loyalty to the Jedi order and his desire to save those he loves makes his story profound and tragic 🔥🔥 His turn to the dark side, with key moments such as his confrontation with Count Dooku and his heartbreaking final duel with Obi-Wan Kenobi on Mustafar 💥🔥
The prequel also brought an invaluable richness to the Star Wars universe, a detailed insight into the Jedi order, Padawan training, the Sith, mastery of combat and Jedi teachings 💖💥🔥 The focus on the Sith and their philosophy reinforced the dark side of the Force, adding depth and complexity to the saga.
The political aspect of the prequel adds a new dimension to the Star Wars universe, Palpatine's machinations in the Galactic Senate and the growing tensions between planetary systems, creating a richer context for the later events of the original trilogy, the rise of the Empire, the fall of the Republic, the extinction of the Jedi and the tragic story of Anakin Skywalker 💥🔥
The expansion of the universe is also great. New planets, races, creatures, peoples and cultures are introduced, with dugs, gungans, toydarians, kaminoians, the aquatic city, the queen's palace, the galactic senate, the cloning factory, the gungans' aquatic city, the galactic senate, Naboo and Coruscant the best planets, helping to create a larger, more diverse world 💥🔥 Iconic locations such as Kamino, Geonosis, Utapau, Felucia and Mustafar provide visually captivating backdrops for action scenes, development and key plot moments 😍🥰💖💥 Cult and iconic characters, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padmé Amidala, Qui-Gon Jinn. Mace Windu, General Grievous, Jango Fett, Watto, Sebulba...❤️🔥🔥
The action scenes and lightsaber battles are among the saga's most memorable. Epic battles such as the Battle of Geonosis, the Pod Race on Tatooine, the Battle of Naboo and the Battle Over Coruscant are highly memorable and emblematic of the saga, they are not only visually impressive, superbly well-realized, but they are also emotionally charged, with characters we've grown to love in danger ❤️🔥
Lightsaber duels between iconic characters such as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Darth Maul and Yoda are executed with exceptional choreography, adding a visceral dimension to the story, the fight on Naboo, the confrontation with Count Dooku, the Senate summit duel between Yoda and Darth Sidious, the fight against Darth Maul and the fratricidal duel between Obi-Wan and Anakin.... 🔥🔥
The prequel also enriches the Star Wars lore with new charismatic and endearing characters, unforgettable music, "Duel of the Fates", "Across the Stars" ", Battle of the Heroes", a super-rich, exciting and very complete lore and a talented cast of actors, Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman, Samuel L. Jackson and Liam Neeson 💖💥😍🔥
Natalie Portman is superb, gorgeous, gentle, sensual and charismatic, lending her character of Padmé Amidala queen and senator of Naboo exemplary strength, determination and courage. She's perfect, she's iconic 🤗🔥💥🥳🥰 Her evolution from a queen to a senator, into a badass, elegant and determined woman, is a central feature of the trilogy 🔥💖💥
Ewan McGregor and Liam Neeson bring memorable class and presence to the screen. Their dynamic as Jedi masters is palpable, and they convey a wisdom and determination that anchors the story in Jedi heritage. What's more, Christopher Lee's presence as Count Dooku adds a touch of class, elegance and charisma, amplified by his Shakespearean delivery.
The prequel was the revival of the Star Wars saga, bringing real dramatic scope, real political context, real stakes, new superb and emblematic characters, emblematic action scenes, a much richer universe, a more developed, more diversified universe, and a much more extended universe, it fleshed out the saga's lore, and perfectly complements the original trilogy by being inseparable from it.
The Star Wars prequel is a pure masterpiece and the Star Wars trilogy is a masterpiece, and they form an incredible whole, a single great story of exceptional galactic epic 🔥💥 the story of Anakin Skywalker, from his training as a Jedi to his turning to the dark side of the Force to his redemption as a Jedi by saving his son, destroying the Sith and bringing balance back to the Force, the story of the Galactic Empire, once a democratic Republic, and the story of Palpatine, his evolution from Senator to Chancellor to Emperor of the Galaxy, his manipulations to establish his authority in the Senate, to create his own Galactic Empire, topple the Jedi order and keep Anakin with him as an apprentice 🔥🤗💥 and the technological advance towards digital in order to create new worlds, new stratospheric and extraordinary world building, new peoples and build the extraordinary story of the Star Wars prequel 🤗❤🔥💥🥳
The prequel trilogy is the true Star Wars as George Lucas always wanted to make it, without the technological and budgetary limitations of the 80s, he was able to expand his universe far beyond, it's a marvelous and accomplished work that is the apotheosis of the Star Wars saga .
George Lucas hated corporations so much that he made a movie about it called "Star Wars". Now a giant, arrogant corporation owns the IP. Of course they can't recapture the spirit of the original work; it goes against their corporate charter.
He sold it for $4.1 billion and they keep losing money. Brilliant.
TPM shows why Anakin is so important, his strong attachment to his mom, why Obi-Wan wasn't right teacher to him, why he hates Tatooine, Jedi rules, Palpatine becoming chancellor, world building, etc...And of course, podracing and Darth Maul.
AOTC actually tells a great story (Palpatine's rise to power by manipulation Republic and Separatists, Anakin's progression of falling to the Dark Side, start of the Clone Wars), develops characters, shows us real war, new planets, species, ships, droids, world, and has strong connection with 1 and 3.
What does ROTS show us? The largest battle in the Clone Wars, deaths of Dooku and Grievous, Kashyyk battle, Anakin's conflict with Jedi and himself, his weakness (save who he loves), which perfectly works with saving Luke, Palpatine's manipulation and rise to power, Order 66, 2 amasing final battles and the creation of Darth Vader and Empire, birth of Luke and Leia, new hope. It is the most meaningful for the whole Galaxy and is the most emotional.

That's because a truly good family film has things that appeal to children as well as adults. Those children then grow up and find all new things that appeal to their now adult nature on further viewings.
Characters: Qui-Gon is a wise Jedi who knows council isn't always right, and follows only will of the Force, prefers to solve problems diplomatically and cares about each life form.
Obi-Wan - young brave man, fanatic of Jedi council, respects his master, but doesn't always agree with him, has some sence of humour.
Amidala - very patriotic girl, trying to protect her people, very kind and impactful, uses any help she can find, a litte bit naive.
Anakin - ambitious talented slave boy, wants to be powerful, free slaves, very loves his mom.
Palpatine - clever manipulator, politician using any resourses to get power.
Darth Maul - apprentice of Dark Lord, raised killing machine, full of hatred to Jedi, wants revenge for defeated Sith.
Jar Jar - clumsy teen, who is very royal to man who saved him, tries his best to help.
Trade Federation - greedy and cowardly businessmen, who want as much resources as possible, work for dark Lord.
Count Dooku is the most interesting minor villain, he left Jedi order and Republic because of corruption, burocracy, stagnation and passivity (and we know he is right). His age speak about his experience. Also he was Qui-Gon's master, who also was very rebel Jedi. He knew about Empire and planned to overthrow Palpatine when it will be created.
The prequels had "good bones". The structure of the story was good, it was merely the execution and character development that had significant flaws.
The sequels, on the other hand, were devoid of any structure at all, and gave you nothing or anyone to root for...

Look at the sets, costumes, creature/droid and vehicles.
Yes the dialogue wasnt that great but movies are more than just dialogue.
@@somethingclever8916 Are you talking about the prequels or the sequels?
@@somethingclever8916 prequels are stunning
I remember growing up with the prequels and I didn’t know they were hated until I got older. Are the prequels flawed in regards to filmmaking? Yes. But at least George Lucas knew what he was doing with the prequels.

I was a huge OT fan. That's what I grew up with. The prequels came after years of media and theorizing we had as kids about what could be. When they finally came, it was crazy exciting, but they never lived up to the ideas and thoughts we had in the interim. But, it was George, it was official, and it was canon, so we accepted it, but they still weren't as good as the OT, at least to me. George has a way of connecting to kids, and that's where I think the strength of the prequels lie. Just as the OT connected to my generation, the prequels connect to its own. That was the goal, and I think he accomplished it for the most part. So, while I think the prequels are not good at all, they do have a place and they did make their mark. The sequels, on the other hand, are a dumpster fire nobody will remember.

The prequel trilogy is the true Star Wars as George Lucas always wanted to make it, without the technological and budgetary limitations of the 80s, he was able to expand his universe far beyond, it's a marvelous and accomplished work that is the apotheosis of the Star Wars saga .
The following reasons why the prequels are liked now are:
- Nostalgia.
- The prequels look much better in comparison to the sequels.
- The third party media surrounding the prequels.
- People got tired of hating the prequels, allowing the prequel generation to offer a different perspective.
- The prequels ended on a strong note with Revenge of the Sith.
The funny thing for me is I LOVE The Phantom Menace and HATE Revenge of the Sith. I think it has to do with the fact I saw Star Wars in 77 so I am fan from the start. In my mind, I could see The Phantom Menace and think, "Oh yeah this can still be made to line up with A New Hope". By the time Revenge of Sith came around, I knew there was no chance for it to line up the way I wanted it to line up.
Or this could be another one of those “so-bad-it’s-good” films that people gravitate towards, like “The Room” or “Plan 9 from Outer Space.”
@@adamshows1142 No. They're not bad enough to be like that. I mean, Attack of the Clones doesn't even get interesting until the third act, largely thanks to Christopher Lee.
@@vetarlittorf1807 What I’m getting is that those two films have this bizarre passion put into them, even if they were not that great.
I can see somewhat the exact same appeal with the Star Wars prequels. They aren’t all that great, but the vision was consistent, and that’s why people gravitate towards them.
The Prequels ultimately were still the product of a creative vision. It’s a vision that needed ironing out more, but a vision nonetheless. A “good story told poorly” as I’ve often seen them described. That makes them ripe for exploration in third party media, which was there even before TCW came along, as well as people appreciating the big picture storyline after the rough edges are acknowledged.
The big issue with the Sequel Trilogy comes from the lack of vision and proper direction, so each movie feels disjointed from the last. And that also makes it harder to produce proper third party material since even the Lucasfilm Story Group didn’t know what was going to happen in each movie. No equivalent to The Clone Wars Multimedia Project exists for the Sequels and therefore no springboard for a TCW equivalent (which originally started as a continuation of the 2003 Clone Wars Microseries from Gennedy Tartovsky which aired between AOTC and ROTS).
I just saw The Phantom Menace today in cinemas for its 25th anniversary (just saying that feels so wrong), and...I can't help but like it.
Somehow it was both better and worse than I remember. The dialogue was awful and most of the acting was terrible.
But I still liked it.
And I know why-it had a Vision. It had a purpose. All the Prequels did.
And George's ideas, as poorly executed as they are, still gave us a rich world where anything seemed possible. Expanding on what the Original Trilogy did-maybe it threw some inconsistencies but it never shattered the OT as a result.
For all their mistakes, it is not just nostalgia that saw the Prequels endure. Their ideas, and George's passion, it shone through. It was still innovating and trying something new. These were films that had a reason to exist and a story to tell, even if it did not tell it well. Its ideas were incredible, and as we returned we kept finding new things to like.
Disney's Trilogy had none of that. It was made only for money, it didn't want to do anything new (not substantially at least), its ideas were mostly ones the previous trilogies already covered, and the very few new ideas either conflicted with the previous sequel films or outright shattered the point of the OT. The Prequels never made the Originals redundant.
Love the Prequal love, it's not perfect and has many flaws , but all the flaws just add to it's flavour. It's imperfections is what makes them just more interesting and entertaining overall.

To compare the trilogies to a puzzle, the Prequels may have been the wrong colours to many, but it was the perfect shape to fit in with the Originals.
The Sequels had some of the right colours to many (at first) but the shape did not fit-so Disney forced it in and smashed the puzzle to pieces.

I would have prefer George Lucas version of 7, 8 and 9 Star Wars. If Disney would have followed George Lucas vision of 7-9 they would’ve had completed the Skywalker saga. It would have been a good one then the one we got.
After that then I could care less what they made after GL Star Wars.
The prequels have their faults. I grew up with them, they're special to me, and I still fully acknowledge this, but they are way better than some people give them credit for. The overarching story, the lore and worldbuilding, the character arcs, the action, the suspense, and the soundtrack are all firing on all cylinders. Only some of the dialog and a few minor creative choices hold them back (Jar Jar in TPM, making Anakin 9 instead of closer to Padme's age, not developing Maul and Dooku more, and not showing more of The Clone Wars where Obi-Wan and Anakin develop their friendship). I don't think there's any denying this regardless of how you like how they panned out, and even if they were as bad as their worst critics say, they're still a gift to mankind if for no other reason than because they're the greatest meme mine to ever grace the internet. People STILL use Star Wars prequel memes like these movies came out in the last five years. The prequels are the last and most evergreen original series of films in the last 25 years. Every other major and popular franchise is am adaptation of something else, and the only framchise that even comes close (yet remains so far in spite of how great they are) are the John Wick and Pirates of the Caribbean franchises. I love the prequel era in spire of the movies' faults and make no apologies for it.

The reason is simple. Competition. Star Wars didn't have many competing franchises during its early days. Many sci-fi and fantasy movies were terrible and Star Wars encompassed them both. Space wizards, alien creatures and star ships, etc. Today there's so much choice that it's nearly impossible for such a large demographic to all latch onto the same piece of media.
There were other big franchises back during the Prequels too. Harry Potter and LOTR being really big ones in the 2000’s. Plus you also had big superhero franchises like Raimi Spider-Man and the original X-Men movies. Yet Star Wars was still strong with a new generation during that era.
@@gameragodzilla As I said, not much competition. Not much during prequels, and almost nothing during the original trilogy.
@@ChallengerBanX Harry Potter was huge back in the day, as were the Raimi Spider-Man movies. There was plenty of competition.
@@gameragodzilla So Harry Potter, Lord of The Rings, Spiderman... anything else? Do you think these were around during the original trilogy in the 80s?
Even for the prequels, do you consider an amount of franchises that you can count on one hand to be lot of competition? I mean, if you do then fair enough. I don't.
@@ChallengerBanX There were plenty others too. Meanwhile, the big franchises right now that competed with Disney Star Wars were still superhero movies and maybe the Monsterverse.

I took my boys to go see Episode 1 yesterday. It was so fun!
Woah! 😲 1:03 A 7 foot long Naboo star fighter sounds AWESOME! 😂
So I have young kids who never watched any star wars until last year. They seem to gravitate to the prequels over any. I think this is just because they are amused by the colors and interesting creatures. But they can agree the disney stuff is the worst 😂

I grew up with the Originals, Father loved to collect VHS's of trilogies. We had Back to the Future, TMNT, Starwars, Rocky, Startrek, tons of films i watched over and over. When the Prequals came out i loved them too. Friend who never paid any attention to Starwars became diehard lovers. My only problem is that one ONLY loved the prequals, tried to get him to watch the original so many times. For him, that was Starwars, well until the games came out. Star Wars: The Old Republic and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. The games also did an awesome job creating characters and worldbuilding. That with the Animated Series of Clone Wars, kept the fans alive in deep in the lore.
The prequels aren't a gift to humanity.
They're the entire factory!

@@padmeamidalatruesenator9756 I can see you're passionate about this. I'm glad you love it. I still have issues with the craft and I don't think it's a masterpiece, but I do have a lot of positives I could say (and agree with you on). I think its flaws are unfortunate and prevent it from being the stunning work it could be. I still prefer it to the sequels.
Thanks for loving Star Wars.
The first six movies in the Star Wars saga are pure masterpieces, a marvelous, legendary, mythical work, the best, the greatest movies of all time, a monument to science fiction, an enthralling work that will never be equaled.
I watched the prequels in theater as an adult Star Wars fan-- and I considered them as three of the worst films I had ever seen in my entire life... until Disney made even worse versions. I think if you were a small child when you watched the prequels, you would love them, as they seem to have been written to appeal to 5 year olds. But compared to the disgustingly bad Disney Sequels, the prequels look much better to me now. At least the prequels had a story that made sense, despite being so badly written. The Disney sequels were much worse, complete garbage that made no sense in addition to being badly written with nonsensical characters and contradicted themselves with no point at all to whatever they were trying to do. The prequels supported and enhanced the Star Wars universe, while the sequels tore down and destroyed the pre-established Star Wars universe, and destroyed the entire franchise.
EDIT: except Rogue One, which was quite good imo!

I saw the originals as a kid during their day, so the prequels weren't as good as those, obviously. But, I didn't think they were bad at the time they were released either. They were different, and told me George Lucas needed someone to "throttle" some of his dialogue decisions, I enjoyed them. Revenge of the Sith was the best, imo. Now, the sequels make the prequels look like timeless masterpieces...

There’s a lot to unpack here but my short version is the original movies are true classics.
The prequels do have problems, the big one for me is I care more about how Aniken became Vader. Thus I would argue that the prequels should of just been about the clone wars. Not Aniken as a young kid or him falling off Padme.
I agree that the sequels don’t have a clear direction & thus don’t work as a trilogy at all. Still like kilo Ren as a character & a few nice moments here and there. Overall it’s an interesting thing to have 3 generations of Star Wars movies with such different quality.
Side note; the Legends books are just a superior sequel to anything that Disney has done. Thanks for the video

Anakin's internal conflict between his loyalty to the Jedi Order and his desire to save those he loves makes his story deep and tragic.

During my childhood one day I received 4 Star Wars movies on VHS: The Original Trilogy and The Phantom Menace. I've watched all of them in quick succession (falling in love), so I've watched ep.1 the day after ep.6. And it wasn't bad, I liked it. Because I had no expectations, I knew nothing about Star Wars, I didn't even know how old were those movies.
And Jar Jar Binks made me cringe less than the ewoks from ep.6, he was entertaining for a kid
Hated the prequels when they were released. I tolerate them now because I can’t watch 7-9 anymore.

they still are bad movies, but watching bad movies is fun
@@mishynaofficial they are still masterpieces, a marvelous work, legendary, mythical, timeless, forming an inseparable whole, these are the best movies, the true Skywalker saga as it should always have been, George Lucas' masterpiece, the Star Wars I-VI films, they are one and the same, two inseparable facets of the same world, these are the greatest movies of all time, which have enormously shaped the construction of the Star Wars world.
4 year old Theresa was right about the arena scene... I think.
No, you're right on. That's the best scene in the movie. It's the only one where the characters aren't immediately able to jedi their way out of a situation. It has tension.
@@NerdilyDone it also, incidentally, the only one I have a childhood memory of.
May the 4th be with you!
Love the LOTR intro. As for the prequels, I enjoy them but there not the best. Revenge of The Sith is great though.

As someone who was 7 when TPM came out, 10 with AOTC, and 13 with ROTS, I absolutely adore the PT.
And even now when I watch them and analyze them seriously as an adult I still love them. In fact I just appreciate them even more for how good they are. And that's not just nostalgia and bias talking. 99.9% of the criticism is just bad faith and by ppl who clearly didn't even pay attention to the films themselves.
I too, loved the Bread Circus retrospective review of The Phantom Menace. I disagree strongly with Sheev Talks and his take on the prequels. And I can talk for hours discussing why. These are just objectively well written and well made movies.
Love the prequel better than the sequel.

the sequel trilogy should be called for what it is the "Disney star wars", a thing living in its own space where nobody cares
The main backlash against the prequels were that after 16 years of dreaming about them? No movie could have lived up to fan's expectations. Furthermore, as the audience of the original trilogy grew up, so too did their tastes - even if they didn't realize it.
Great video jester.
At least 1-3 had a plan and a purpose and an ending. I did not NEED to know what happened before 4-6. My imagination filled in the blanks more interestingly than when Lucas spoon fed them to me.
Even if they're not good, they're still entertaining. But I never saw a lot of hate for them either until the internet was more widespread.

i've ALWAYS loved the prequels,and ROTS is STILL objectively the BEST
Honestly I know one complaint was the CGI. This confuses me because the CGI looks amazing and realistic. Currently watching the Phantom Menace to confirm. I also figured out that the clones (majority of them) were CGI and not people in costume. That takes a lot of skill to make a CGI character to look real!
Yeah, too bad that the Phantom Menace didn't make them look real.
@NerdilyDone how did they not look real? Looked pretty real to me
For me, it's plain and simple.
The original trilogy is Star Wars.
The prequel trilogy, while lesser than the original, IS Star Wars.
The sequel trilogy goes out of it's way to not only NOT be Star Wars, it tries to shit on Star Wars and rub it in the faces of those who want Star Wars.
I will never give Disney Star Wars any leeway. All of their releases are fanfiction garbage. Even Andor, which I loved, is still fan-fiction that isn't Star Wars.
It's an outstanding story wearing a Star Wars suit.

The prequel trilogy is the true Star Wars as George Lucas always wanted to make it, without the technological and budgetary limitations of the 80s, he was able to expand his universe far beyond, it's a marvelous and accomplished work that is the apotheosis of the Star Wars saga .
I have to confess that the prequels made me lose interest in the saga. I didn't hate them, I just didn't love them. They didn't have the particular magic spark and the compelling characters of the classics.
I know many fans dislike the sequels, but I loved "The Last Jedi" because it was the first Star Wars fairy tale since 1983, with all of the magical atmosphere I had missed for so long. It's unfortunate that it was so ripped apart by the toxic fans that it was followed by "The Rise of Skywalker", which was an aberration except for a few scenes.
BTW I never understood why everybody pretends that "The Force Awakens" is a rip-off of "A New Hope". The narrative structure is there, yes, but the characters are wildly different and so are their relationships to one another, which makes for a wholly different story.
from 14 - 41 i strictly considered the prequels as peak star wars.
6:51, The added lore and themes are, at least to me, the Prequel Era’s saving grace from the at times disengaging dialogue and boring direction between characters. Sure the performances for many of the actors were still stellar, but some of the writing behind their actual exchanges making them feel like characters in a stage play made it difficult to take some of it seriously, especially when coupled with overly goofy elements like Jar Jar’s oafishness, until the action and visuals sets in.
It’s because of the Prequels that the Old Republic Era (which Disney is attempting to make its own take on with the High Republic Era) and various games, books and comics were made to give people more to love from this franchise, as it added new layers to this universes history and the complexity of its characters and the narratives that could be told with them.
14:41, To compare to recent films, I would say Dune managed to accomplish something closer to what could have been with the prequels, having an immersive setting, interesting themes and a solid narrative but backed up with great performances supported by well-written dialogue and good direction. Not that I’m saying Star Wars’ prequels should emulate everything from Dune, only that it was developed by a team of creatives with a shared vision than then refined that vision (while, ironically, also appealing to meme culture).

I was in my 20s when the prequels came out.
yeah, I'm old.
Most people were ok with the Phantom Menace, but by the time the Revenge of the Sith came out, a lot of people were made about the quality of the films. I just remember people's reaction coming out of the movie theater for Revenge of the Sith.
People were saying it was the worst Star Wars movie ever made.
With that being said, I can rewatch the prequel Star Wars movies, but I can't rewatch the Disney Star Wars movies.

Reasons why I dislike the prequels but still find them entertaining:
1. Jar-Jar Binx is the anti-christ.
2. They killed off the coolest villain since Vader in the first movie. (Darth Maul)
3. No chemistry between Anakin amd Padme.
4. Anakin looked the part but acted like a lil' bitch.
The whole point is that Anakin and Padme have no chemistry. Anakin is known for having no social life.

Hate them, but not for lack of trying to love them. I saw Phantom Menace several times and no love grew as much as I tried. I went into Attack of The Clones thinking this would redeem it because everyone said it was better.....It wasn't. I went to Revenge of the Sith just to get it over with, and remained unimpressed. Now Each one of those films have their moments, but none of those moments could save them in my mind. That being said, they are much better structured than the Sequels, and they at least knew where they wanted to go
The OG Trilogy had the benefit of Filtering out all of Georges Bad Ideas (depending on how you feel about the Ewoks of course). The Prequels were Pure Uncut George, and that ultimately is a bad thing. Why? well mainly because he lost the mindset of what made the OG trilogy work, and that was the Faerie Tale aspect. The Faerie Tale aspect is missing from all the other Star Wars films, choosing to fill that Gap with more realistic Politics. Also none of the Post ROTJ films fit nicely together with the OG Trilogy, but rather feel crudely stapled or nailed on and feel very Janky.
also independently, The Prequels and Sequels haven't inspired anyone (weeelll, maybe fan film makers and some of the later EU writers I suppose). The OG Trilogy inspired many to make their own foray into science Fiction/Fantasy. Hell, In Japan alone there was a massive boom in creating fantastic Sci-fi/fantasy Space Operas From Crusher Joe to Macross, From The Dirty Pair to Mobile Suit Gundam, the list goes on and on. Add to that the further influence of films like Blade Runner and Mad Max and the mix and match of these different styles created a lot of memorable material in animation and comics.
Geez, just write it as fairy tale you pendant.

Great video, Great Analysis, Great channel, Thanks
I turned on AotC last night. First time for my kids and the first time I'd seen it in years. Still so bad. But I'll actually go back and cringe at this than rewatch TLJ or ROS anymore.
I also don't think it can be understated just how much Dave Filoni had a hand in shifting people's perceptions of the prequels with The Clone Wars animated series, which was able to explore the characters and themes of the prequels more thoroughly. I didn't see either series until I was in my late teens, so I didn't have any nostalgia for that era of Star Wars canon, but even I found myself with a new appreciation for what the prequels did after watching The Clone Wars. He's been trying to do the same for the sequels, but I don't think it's going to work because, like you said, the sequels just don't have the same heart and soul that held the prequels up even in the midst of bad dialogue and weird characterization.
Actually that's wrong. Filoni insulted the prequels. The reason the prequels were reevaluated is because of the sequels.
Couldn't agree more! The Clone Wars is a gift to the prequels
Even The Clone Wars only existed because of existing tie in material for the Prequels, like the 2003 Micro Series or the Republic comics from the Clone Wars Multimedia project which ran between AOTC and ROTS. Now it also contradicted a lot of that material, hence why EU fans disliked TCW, but still it owes its existence to that material nonetheless. And that material only existed because the Prequels had a cohesive enough vision that tie in materials could work with the movies prior to release.
Meanwhile, the Lucasfilm Story Group rejected a pitch for a video game set between TFA and TLJ because they didn’t know what was going to happen in TLJ. The group that’s supposed to be overseeing the whole Star Wars continuity didn’t know what was going to happen in the next big movie of the trilogy. And then the final movie lost its original director and script, so Disney had to hastily put something together while addressing backlash. It’s a mess and the fact that there still hasn’t been substantial Sequel era material to the same extent as the Clone Wars Multimedia Project (which came out during the release of the Prequels) or The Clone Wars (which came out only 3 years after ROTS) is proof of that.
yeah then he made Ahsoka...gtfo
@@vetarlittorf1807 No, there is a video of him praising them...then he makes Ahsoka cause he's that brilliant 😂😂😂👎👎👎
Your present is a gift, JesterBell! You rock. And you look so pretty! And May the 4th be with you! I was starring at the Last Jedi DVD wondering if I should finally finish watching it (only saw around 20 minutes multitasking), before reading your community post yesterday, and really appreciated reading the comments because I'm gonna back off since, it's possible I might like it, but to me, part of pop culture interest is to connect with others so if people aren't digging it, don't care to see it.
I actually loved Force Awakens in theaters, and kept talking about it with anyone I could, but, in general, whatever my mind is currently engaged with was my favorite so me saying it was my favorite might not mean much, and the last one I saw was Rogue One, which, yep, was also my favorite, but then with the negativity of the new movies, I stopped caring about Star Wars and didn't really care for any of the movies since my interest was more keep up with fandom....except Episode 3! That's for me! Also, the redemption scene from Return of the Jedi.
Back to your vid...haha was tempted again to get Last Jedi today, but after to your video, once again, was convinced otherwise, and decided to get a New Hope instead, which it was there yesterday, but someone got it! Which is cool! Glad people are hyped on Star Wars.
Your thoughts were wonderful to hear here! You're a fantastic smart insightful speaker! Also, haha. I was gonna write about Cars (7/10 from memory...so I still thought it was good!) when you did your community post. I agreed with the common consensus at the time that it was the worst Pixar movie at the time, but it was my third favorite after Wall-e (9/10) and Bug's Life (8/10)! Never saw it again, and don't mind people bashing stuff because I appreciate honesty and want to know what people think so I don't recommend anything that stinks to people.
And, haha was also gonna write about the Lion King how, that movie was a blank for me, similar to Star Wars ESB....when I was watching Star Wars movies and reading comics (read pretty much every SW comic on Marvel Unlimited) to get in the conversation before Force Awakens came out, I didn't even know who Han Solo was. Even watching the films, he was completely gone from my memory, and now I have him on my list of most admirable fictional characters I can think of:
Han Solo, Leia Organa, and Luke Skywalker (Star Wars movies)
Seita (Grave of the Fireflies)
Frodo, Sam, Aragorn, Gandalf, Pippin, Merry, Eowyn, Arwen, Gimli, Legolas...all Lord of the Rings characters, including the villains. jk
Maximus (Gladiator)....hope the sequel is good!
Mary Hatch Bailey (It's a Wonderful Life)
Lisa Fremont (Rear Window)
Mel Miller (A Face in the Crowd)
Mark Thackeray (To Sir, with Love)
Sam (Moonrise Kingdom)
Linus (A Charlie Brown Christmas)
Cliff Booth (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood)
Jefferson Smith (Mr. Smith Goes to Washington)
Fictionalized William Wallace (Braveheart)
Maria Van Trapp (Sound of Music)
Fictionalized Tim Ballard (Sound of Freedom)
Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid)
Future Trunks (Dragon Ball)
Walt Kowalski (Gran Torino)
Joe Kelly's Nightwing (Justice League comics)
Leonardo (TMNT)
Kurt Busiek's Captain America (Avengers comics)
Tim Drake Robin (from Batman Knightfall)
John Marston (Red Dead Redemption)
I remember Obi-wan was my favorite character as a little kid starting with New Hope and that being my favorite of the original trilogy, and then I think Phantom Menace was my overall favorite, and read Obi-wan books, and the Return of the Jedi "Father please" Luke redemption scene was my childhood favorite movie scene besides the Batman Mask of the Phantasm "I didn't count on being happy."
I thought Luke's pulling back from finishing off Darth Vader/ Anakin as a near occasion of sin metaphor with Luke recognizing his limitations over his loss of control turning away from ordering his passion for righteous anger/justice into self-righteous wrath/revenge, and he's the one that helps redeem Vader, with love, and with self-sacrificial love, is how Anakin brings justice to the Emperor, saving his son Luke, freeing the universe, and freeing himself from being a slave!
Also, was reading your Last Jedi community post comments about politics, and I thought with Revenge of the Sith, George Lucas was inspired by another George, W Bush, with Anakin's "If you're not with me, then you're my enemy," but I think, taking the film for what it is, I don't think it's so much there where I think Anakin's fall from grace story could be interpreted as including a universal notion of corruption in the midst of troubling political times.
Imo, it has metaphorical political appeal kinda like Captain America Civil War with Iron Man being more metaphorical big government and Captain America being more metaphorical for subsidiarity (I wore my Captain America shirt to the theater in support, even though Iron Man was my favorite character because of the the redemption arc from the first Iron Man movie and RDJ's charisma), but I think the Emperor is a more universal appeal villain to apply to any manipulative person such as a politician, psychologist, teacher, influencer, businessman, commentator, religious leader, etc. playing on the selfish passion encouraging enslavement to sin.
Also, Revenge of the Sith was not only my favorite Star Wars movie, but one of my all time favorite movies because of the metaphorical relevance. I liked the concept so much, I watched multiple fan-cuts, read the novelization....which I liked so much, that, and I just recently remembered this, I remember searching to get a good deal on the Hot Toys Darth Vader because, I think he was my favorite fictional character...but then got the movie Deadpool, not because of the, imo, garbage, R-rated Ryan Reynold movies but my fandom for the 90s villain to anti-hero Joe Kelly Deadpool redemption comic run (the closest on screen depiction of 90s Deadpool for me is Nightmare Before Christmas Jack Skellington mixed with the 1967 "Wait Until Dark" villain Roat.)
Anyways, RotS has been mind regarding current culture besides, and I'm not saying these are recommendations but just reflecting on childhood memory onward Sound of Freedom, Fight Club, The Thing, Minority Report, District 9,Truman Show, Wall-E, The Dark Knight Trilogy, Nightmare Before Christmas, Misery, Heathers, Sunset Boulevard, more Star Wars, The Shop Around the Corner, Grave of the Fireflies, Lord of the Rings, Godfather Part II, Requiem for a Dream, A Face in the Crowd, Stalker, 1931/1932 version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde....there's more but anyways.....
I liked it because there was the Emperor's emotional manipulation with Anakin's pride (I appreciated in the novelization that Anakin took responsibility for it being about himself over Padme if I recall correctly); fantastic music and imaginative world; Hayden Christensen's facial acting tearfully looking out the window concerned over his wife being one of my favorite facial acting performances besides Liv Ullman in Autumn Sonata looking at her mom when playing the piano (also, I liked the moment in Attack of the Clones with his breakdown over getting revenge for his mother which helped inform his dark downfall); Yoda's admitting his pride; and I liked the "only a Sith deals in absolutes" line that people criticized because I thought it brought humanity to Obi-wan's characterization and the criticism of the line was, in a way, imo, making Obi-wan's point with the downfall of uncharitable rigid thinking, which I struggle with making me think of...and it's a reason why Revenge of the Sith is the most meaningful to me, and hopefully I didn't mess up here:
James 1:19-20 "Know this, my dear brothers: everyone should be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath, for the wrath of a man does not accomplish the righteousness of God."
and also the temptation to make perfection the enemy of the good and also thinking of the first uncharitable kinda "Well, actually" deconstructionist with the devil whose first words:
Genesis 3:1 "Now the snake was the most cunning of all the wild animals that the Lord God had made. He asked the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You shall not eat from any of the trees in the garden?”"
I gotta go! I wrote way more going into all the Prequels, but I think I went over the limit! Not even sure if this will work, but will try to be back!
To answer your pinned comment! Been thinking about Star Wars being in hype for this video after you announced it, and, upon reflection changed my mind about the movies when, previously, the only one I thought was really good was Episode V. However, I think Episodes III-IV were all really good movies, and I do think the first two prequels were also good!
I remember thinking the Bourne movies was my favorite trilogy, only seeing it once, but in hype for this video, the Star Wars prequels might have been....but now hearing your thoughts, maybe the original trilogy is..or maybe it'll be LOTR cuz of your opening. haha
Oh, wait, forgot, I meant to say, I re-watched Lion King later on, and unlike my childhood favorite Aladdin, thought Lion King was much better, and liked it as an adult! Still need to re-watch Emperor's New Groove since you praised it so much, but I think Lion King is an amazing 2d animated movie up there with Hunchback of Notre Dame, Tarzan, Prince of Egypt, and Iron Giant!
Hope you have a wonderful day, JesterBell!
FWIW: If I were to do movie reviews on UA-cam or anywhere else, I would have to watch a motion picture MORE THAN TWICE to have any hope of being able to do so.
That said, during my ONE-AND-ONLY VIEWING of *THE FORCE AWAKENS* I could tell it was basically a _giant rehash_ of *A NEW HOPE,* or what people my age just call *STAR WARS...😉*
ALSO FWIW: I never saw *ROGUE ONE,* nor any of the later Disney sequels. I would still like to see *R.O.,* but THAT is ALL.
George Lucas is very overrated as a writer and director. Aside from American Graffiti he wasn't setting the world on fire with his films. When Star Wars came out it blew everyone away because it was so different from all the sci fi that came before it. Sci fi was either cheesy kiddie stuff or hard to approach like 2001. But it was other people who saved it from George like the editing team, the music, and the ground breaking special effects. Without that it was just clunky dialogue in a pretty basic story. But what made SW really take hold was The Empire Strikes Back. Which was written and directed by more talented people. Which of course led to a satisfying conclusion with Return of the Jedi. But George being George had to throw in things like ewoks because the merch was where his money was really coming from. Without the sequels it would probably not be as beloved as it is today and just a really neat movie from the 70s. The prequels being almost all George were VERY flawed. I didn't hate them but I sure didn't love them. If he hired real screenwriters and a different director and didn't rely so much on green screen ( or insisting that Jar Jar be the key to everything because it was a "kid's movie" ) they would probably be held in higher regard today. BTW, the Internet was being the Internet even back in the 90s. I used the computers at the college I was going to see what people were saying about the Phantom Menace and people were tearing it apart. Even before it came out people were saying Waddo ( or whatever his name was ) was a Jewish stereotype and Jar Jar was making fun of black people. The discourse on the web hasn't changed. There's just more of it now.

The prequel trilogy is the true Star Wars as George Lucas always wanted to make it, without the technological and budgetary limitations of the 80s, he was able to expand his universe far beyond, it's a marvelous and accomplished work that is the apotheosis of the Star Wars saga.
George Lucas and James Cameron are Masters, true visionaries, forerunners and pioneers of new technologies - digital, special effects, advanced computer editing - who use cutting-edge technologies to create new worlds, new fabulous universes, new peoples, new civilizations and new ways of directing, These are the greatest directors in the film history, the great creators of fabulous stories and universes, of a huge number of iconic characters in the history of pop culture, and they are true perfectionists who have devoted their lives to their work, whether it's Star Wars or Avatar, they are the best, the greatest directors of all time.
George Lucas is one of the greatest visionaries in the film history. His groundbreaking work in special effects, digital technology and the creation of fantastical worlds has redefined the limits of what cinema can achieve.
Star Wars is a perfect example of his visionary genius. In 1977, when the first film was released, special effects were still very limited. However, George Lucas pushed back those limits, introducing revolutionary special effects that made possible the creation of alien worlds, epic space battles and iconic characters such as Darth Vader and Yoda. The use of models, blue-screen inlays and compositing techniques paved the way for a new era in special effects.
What's more, George Lucas was a pioneer in the use of digital technology in cinema. With the Star Wars prequels released in the 1990s and 2000s, George Lucas pushed the boundaries of digital technology, creating fully digital characters such as Jar Jar Binks, and creating spectacular action scenes that would not have been possible without the use of advanced CGI.
George Lucas was also an early adopter of new computer editing technologies to facilitate the post-production process. His company, Industrial Light & Magic, developed revolutionary software for editing and creating special effects, paving the way for a new generation of filmmakers to fully exploit the potential of digital in cinema.
Finally, George Lucas is not only a technical genius, but also a master of visual storytelling. His films not only impress visually, but also tell compelling, timeless stories. The expanded Star Wars universe has inspired generations of moviegoers, and its iconic characters have become icons of popular culture.
"THX 1138" explores themes such as dystopia, state surveillance and the quest for individual freedom. George Lucas uses minimalist aesthetics and an oppressive atmosphere to plunge us into this futuristic universe where humanity is reduced to numbers. This visual approach brilliantly supports the narrative and reinforces the themes addressed.
"American Graffiti" is a nostalgic homage to the 1960s, exploring youth, freedom and the longing of adolescence. George Lucas captures the essence of the era through skilful use of music, photography and set design, creating an immersive atmosphere.
And with "Star Wars", George Lucas has created a universe rich in mythology, iconic characters and universal themes such as good versus evil, the hero's journey, and the struggle for freedom. Using familiar archetypes, breathtaking landscapes and interconnected narratives, he has fashioned a cinematic epic that transcends cultural and generational boundaries.
What's more, the construction of the expanded "Star Wars" universe through films, series, books and video games has enabled the saga to become an inexhaustible source of inspiration for generations of moviegoers. Iconic characters such as Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader and Princess Leia have become icons of popular culture, symbolizing values such as courage, determination and hope.
The Star Wars prequel remains deeply rooted in the themes that have marked George Lucas' cinema since his debut with "THX 1138". ,
Religion plays a central role in the prequel, notably through the Jedi Order and the Sith. George Lucas draws on religious references, such as monasticism, moral codes and the struggle between good and evil, to create a universe where spirituality is omnipresent. The figure of the Chosen One, Anakin Skywalker, is often interpreted as a messianic incarnation, recalling religious figures such as Jesus.
Secondly, forbidden love is a recurring theme throughout the "Star Wars" saga, but is particularly explored in the prequel through the relationship between Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala. Their love is hindered by the strict rules of the Jedi Order and Padmé's political obligations, fueling Anakin's inner conflict and pushing him to the dark side.
Government control and oppression are also pervasive themes, reflecting George Lucas' concerns about political power and individual freedom. The rise of the Galactic Empire under Palpatine highlights the dangers of authoritarian, manipulative government, while the rebellion of the Jedi and dissidents recalls the struggles for freedom throughout history.
The prequel also tackles themes such as motor racing, echoed in "American Graffiti", and the quest for identity, symbolized by Anakin Skywalker's journey to find his place in the galaxy.
References to Greek mythology also add an epic, timeless dimension to the story. For example, the concept of the Force, which permeates the entire "Star Wars" universe, recalls the notions of destiny, divinity and duality present in Greek mythology. The Jedi and Sith embody the archetypal heroes and villains respectively, with their own modernized versions of tragic heroes and capricious gods.
Parallels with Nazi politics also offer food for thought on the dangers of totalitarianism and political manipulation. Palpatine's rise to power and the Republic's transformation into a Galactic Empire recall the methods and ideologies used by the authoritarian regimes of the 20th century. This political dimension adds gravity and contemporary relevance to the story, while inviting reflection on the lessons of history.
Other historical contexts, such as world wars and religious conflicts, are also present in the "Star Wars" universe. For example, the epic battles between the Imperial forces and the Rebellion evoke the armed conflicts of human history, while the ideological quarrels between the Jedi and the Sith recall the religious conflicts that have marked human history.
I can only speak for myself but as bad as these films are why I can go back to them is there was a kernel of a good idea. Unlike the sequels which were the new Coke of Star Wars in ripping off the entire OT but poorly; there was at least a bit of creativity. The fall of the Roman republic meets Macbeth with Anakin. Sure the execution was bad but I know for a fact that had George gotten someone competent to take his ideas and refine and funnel them; we could have gotten something as beloved as the OT. Case in point look at all the old EU content we got from this era. There are some amazing stories penned by some great writers. This doesn’t excuse the execution and what we got. But I don’t frown on folks who like these films. If they say they are good well that’s another topic. But liking them; I get it. There’s some small gold flecks amongst this sludge. Unlike the sequels sadly.

The prequel trilogy is the true Star Wars as George Lucas always wanted to make it, without the technological and budgetary limitations of the 80s, he was able to expand his universe far beyond, it's a marvelous and accomplished work that is the apotheosis of the Star Wars saga .
I agree pretty much completely with your idea, and frankly, I think this is bizarrely the reason the Last Jedi (and really, only the Last Jedi) got so much hate, despite something like Rise of Skywalker is objectively worse on every conceivable level: The Last Jedi is the only sequel trilogy film where the guy behind the wheels actually gave a shit and wanted to do something. It's the one that gets the most hate, because it's the only movie where there's anything to even talk about. And I'm not saying that it's 'a good film' or a good sequel, but I will damn well take a film that someone was passionate about over some haphazardly thrown together mess where people mostly only showed up for a paycheck like any Abrams production.
Love or hate the prequels? Yes/No. I think a critic once said, "the three prequel movies equal one good movie".I liked Clones best, which puts me in a very small minority. The answer was simple...the first one was underdone, the last one was overdone, the second one just felt right to me. Yoda was a statesman, a teacher and a bad ass warrior..the clone troopers were awesome, and there was a conspiracy introduced. Attack of the Clones deserves more love. and more Jar Jar (just kidding).

Pretty easy - Lucas
I think there’s also something to be said for a lot of Star Wars fans retconning their own feelings about the prequel films because of their love for the prequel tv shows.
What George Lucas did to Jake Lloyd. Kathleen Kennedy did to OG George Lucas fans. What goes around comes around.
Yea I was 15 in 1999.... You younglings born 2000 onward say your old.. youthful exuberance. Lol. You make good marvel/star wars content.
I have watched you off and on. your animated Batman videos really are great videos too. I have took up toouch time yapping... Again take care
The prequels were really unnecessary and the only reason why they exist is largely because Lucas was more interested in selling camera technology.
No. They exist because Lucas had been planning to make a prequel trilogy since 1980. It was even originally supposed to be released in 1987, but that was before George's divorce.

The prequel memes are top notch.
Great video, really well articulated! And I totally get where you're coming from and that you're looking at it more zoomed out, big picture.
TPM came out when I was in early high school and ever since, I've been hearing these kinds of justifications about why these movies are worthwhile, important to the SW universe, etc. I respect people's feelings on that, but for me, having seen them all in the theaters, hoping against hope that they'd at least be enjoyable, but being let down one after another, to me, despite all the peripheral reasons people find to tolerate/like/love them, they are simply unentertaining and unwatchable.
They were also the harbinger of the disillusionment of not just foundational franchises of my generation, but the filmmakers themselves like Lucas, Spielberg, Burton, Cameron, Jackson, Zemeckis...
Great video, I'm not apologizing to JarJar though.
The video's title belongs in the Bible it's so true it's gospel.
It's silly to say nobody is excited for the 10th anniversary of The Force Awakens, since nobody was excited for the 10th anniversary of The Phantom Menace either. And long before you were born, nobody gave a crap about the 10th anniversary of A New Hope. It wasn't until the 20th anniversary of A New Hope that the original trilogy was rereleased in theaters with added effects and scenes, that are still a hot topic today.
So yeah you like The Phantom Menace because of nostalgia. Mr Plinkett is right about everything in his review and no Lucas didn't sell his company because someone took 70 minutes to analyze the problems of The Phantom Menace. There have been fan edits of The Phantom Menace since 2000. Topher Grace made an infamous fan edit of all three prequel movies in 2012. There was no love for the prequels on the 10th anniversary of the prequels.
It's a fact that in 2035 on the 20th anniversary of The Force Awakens people will say it's a great film. By 2037 there will be essays saying what Rian Johnson did was nothing short of genius. In 2039 there will even be people saying that Rise of Skywalker wasn't so bad. But we will know better. Just like I know better that the prequels were not considered the masterpieces they are today.
Idk why she talked about Fan Fiction films so much in this video
the ring should've been the sequels
4:12, that argument could just as easily be applied to the original trilogy
Great argument, i also grew up with the prequels and never understood the hate, their flawed but engaging, it feels like something a human made with passion
The sequels feel written by a committee of AI and marketing

5:00, Billiam made a half hour video praising the Spy Kids Trilogy and so did Mason IDK. (Even though neither video is 12 hours and each is about three movies rather than one.)
I grew up woth the prequels. Didn't actually see the original trilogy for a long time.
The only Star Wars movie I saw was Revenge Of The Sith and I liked it but didn’t understand the ending until I knew it was for the original trilogy 😅
I'm 48 and SO GLAD I grew up with the original trilogy. The prequels are still bad in my mind and I haven't watched them in over a decade. The Disney trilogy is an abomination and I'll never revisit them again. The only recent stuff that's acceptable is Rogue One and the first two seasons of Mandalorian.

The first six movies in the Star Wars saga are pure masterpieces, a marvelous, legendary, mythical work, the best, the greatest movies of all time, a monument to science fiction, an enthralling work that will never be equaled.
I used to go on message boards to argue about how bad the prequels before the RLM video came out. The Plinkett videos changed video commentary forever though
George Lucas's Star Wars prequel trilogy is a pure masterpiece, a wonderful, magnificent, exciting, significant, and extremely rich work that has greatly contributed to the story, universe, characters, lore, and mythology of Star Wars. They are the best, the greatest movies of all time, a great cult and exciting trilogy from start to finish. It's the Star Wars as George Lucas always wanted it to be. It's the best Star Wars trilogy, the greatest Star Wars trilogy, the richest, most accomplished, most complete, the best period; everything is superb: the deepening of the Star Wars universe and its narrative elements are superb and exciting, and it explores in detail the period of the Clone Wars, a crucial moment in Star Wars history. A fundamental and exciting turning point. The Clone Wars period is the best period of Star Wars. The fascinating plot that unfolds throughout the films. The rise of Palpatine, Darth Sidious, is masterfully depicted. His behind-the-scenes machinations to undermine the Galactic Republic and bring the galaxy under his control are meticulously presented. His manipulation to form a massive clone army and eradicate the Jedi with Order 66 is a central element of the story, explaining how the Galactic Empire took shape following the fall of the Republic and how Anakin fell to the dark side to become Darth Vader, a fallen hero who just wanted to save those he loved. Anakin Skywalker's transformation into Darth Vader is a superb, memorable, breathtaking scene. The connection with the original trilogy is very well done. Anakin's internal conflict between his loyalty to the Jedi Order and his desire to save those he loves makes his story deep and tragic. His journey to the dark side, with key moments such as his confrontation with Count Dooku and his heartbreaking final duel with Obi-Wan Kenobi on Mustafar. The prequel trilogy also brought invaluable richness to the Star Wars universe, with a detailed look at the Jedi Order, Padawan training, Sith, combat mastery, and Jedi teachings. The spotlight on the Sith and their philosophy strengthened the dark side of the Force, adding depth and complexity to the saga. The political aspect of the prequel adds a new dimension to the Star Wars universe, with Palpatine's machinations in the Galactic Senate and growing tensions between planetary systems, creating a richer context for the later events of the Original Trilogy, the rise of the Empire, the fall of the Republic, the extinction of the Jedi, and Anakin Skywalker's tragic story. The expansion of the universe is also great. New planets, races, creatures, peoples, and cultures are introduced, contributing to creating a larger and more diverse world. Iconic locations such as Kamino, Geonosis, Utapau, Felucia, and Mustafar provide visually captivating backdrops for action scenes, development, and key plot moments. Beloved and iconic characters, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padmé Amidala, Qui-Gon Jinn, Mace Windu, General Grievous, Jango Fett, Watto, Sebulba. The action scenes and lightsaber battles are among the most memorable in the saga. Epic battles such as the Battle of Geonosis, the podrace on Tatooine, the Battle of Naboo, and the battle above Coruscant are very memorable and iconic of the saga. The lightsaber duels between iconic characters such as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Darth Maul, and Yoda are executed with exceptional choreography, adding a visceral dimension to the story. The prequel also enriches the Star Wars lore with new charismatic and endearing characters, unforgettable music, "Duel of the Fates," "Across the Stars," "Battle of the Heroes," a super rich, exciting, and comprehensive lore, and a talented cast of actors, Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman, Samuel L. Jackson, and Liam Neeson. Natalie Portman is superb, magnificent, sweet, sensual, and charismatic, giving her character Padmé Amidala queen and senator of Naboo an exemplary strength, determination, and courage. She's perfect, she's iconic. Her evolution from a queen to a senator, into a badass, elegant, and determined woman, is a central characteristic of the trilogy. Ewan McGregor and Liam Neeson bring memorable class and presence to the screen. Their dynamic as Jedi Masters is palpable, and they convey a wisdom and determination that anchor the story in the Jedi legacy. Additionally, Christopher Lee's presence as Count Dooku adds a touch of class, elegance, and charisma, amplified by his Shakespearean speech. The prequel was the rejuvenation of the Star Wars saga, bringing real dramatic scope, real political context, stakes, new superb and iconic characters, iconic action scenes, a much richer universe, a more developed, more diverse universe, and a much more extensive universe.

You know the star wars content by youtubers Anomaly Inc, Rick Worley and Style is substance?
Ever heard of the few Star Wars novels written with Lucas (Cloak of Deception, Darth Plagueis, Shatterpoint, Labyrinth of Evil and the six movie novelizations)?
I... didn't like them. It was all going really well quite honestly and then... midichlorians. It changed it from excellent space fantasy/opera to terrible terrible science fiction, and broke my immersion immediately, and I didn't get it back in the movie theatre till the Rogue One. Liked all the animation series though, those felt (and still feel) way more like star wars than any of the live action stuff.
I was really enjoying the sequels up until Rise of Skywalker, which was a: a non-story, it was a sequence of action sequences linked together by improbable mystery boxes and b: it was the final film in a completely different trilogy to the 2 films that went before it. But FA and TLJ *felt* like star wars. A presence I'd not felt since...
I too am someone star wars has been with since the year of birth - just in my case its the OT.
The OT dialogue was terrible, I can't deny it!
But it worked because of the sparkling onscreen chemistry that I thought was entirely lacking in the prequels until the revenge of the sith (which was markedly better than the other two, imho).

Loved the first one but barely spoke English, second had a hype ending but the rest was forgettable, 3rd I barely remember apart from the memes
You are wrong. These movies were widely hated when they came out
The *STAR WARS* prequels.
Also known as YOU NEVER KNOW HOW GOOD YOU HAVE IT UNTIL THINGS GET MUCH, MUCH WORSE...🙄
Loved it. Totally agree.
"...from a certain point of view."😊
Four words .The Clone Wars saga.
Only if you mean the original Clone Wars multimedia project. Not the CGI monstrosity.
Great vid. Prequels FTW
Mr. Plink-lette 😆
Jar Jar Binks was so underrated. We should have got Darth Jar Jar, it would have shut up at least a few of the haters.
Anakin and Padme's relationship will make A LOT more sense when you realize Anakin is George and Padme is Marcia.
Marcia cheated on George and took his money. 🤨
Yew-an McGregor
Here; May the 4th be with u
I was 13 I think when ep1 came out. I thought it was ok, but didn't feel like star wars. And the the next two films I didn't like at all. In fact it was an absolute boredom and a chore to watch them. I did see the original rereleases in the mid 90's, so I also had a point of comparison. Those prequels just lacked energy and adventure, charm and charisma.
As for ep7 etc, I didn't like 7 and didn't watch any of the following films, except for solo, which i thought was okeish and I watched it only because my dad convinced me to.
Very good vid & they can only be one... Oh wait which movie is it.... Hahah 😂 goodstuff I do remember the prequels having jokes made about them but I enjoyed them & look at what they had to follow. Thanks.
The people who love the sequels will probably still love them later, but the story is almost nonexistent, it won’t have a renaissance like the prequels.

The Phantom Menace is a masterpiece and an important movie in the Star Wars universe. The Phantom Menace lays the foundations for the Star Wars universe. From the Galactic Republic to the Jedi, Sith and Padawans, the film plunges us into a rich and complex world. It also introduces iconic characters such as Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padmé Amidala and, of course, Anakin Skywalker. The movie tackles profound and important themes such as politics, corruption, power and destiny. For example, the rise of the Trade Federation and its blockade of Naboo illustrate the struggle for control and political manipulation. The Phantom Menace is above all the story of Anakin Skywalker, the chosen one destined to bring balance to the Force. His introduction as a young slave on Tatooine to his meeting with Qui-Gon Jinn represents the beginning of his journey into light and darkness. The movie is packed with memorable, iconic scenes. From the pod race on Tatooine to the final duel between Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Darth Maul, and the epic battle of Naboo, every sequence is carefully orchestrated. The Phantom Menace also expands the saga's universe by introducing new worlds, races, technologies and concepts. The planet Naboo, for example, offers a striking contrast to the more austere settings of Tatooine and Coruscant, while the Gungans, Dugs and Toydarians bring a new dimension to the livelier, more populated and more diverse Star Wars universe. The menacing shadow of the Sith hangs over the entire movie, foreshadowing Darth Sidious's rise to power and Anakin's ascent to the dark side of the Force, giving full meaning to the title of The Phantom Menace. The presence of Darth Maul embodies this imminent threat and adds a dimension of danger. George Lucas draws on many religious traditions to shape the Star Wars universe, and The Phantom Menace is no exception. The Jedi are warrior monks who follow a strict moral code and are dedicated to protecting peace and justice in the galaxy. Their belief in the Force, a mystical energy that permeates everything, reflects concepts of spirituality and universal connection. For example, the scene in which Qui-Gon explains the Force to Anakin is imbued with an almost religious atmosphere, reinforcing the importance of this belief in the Star Wars universe.
The Phantom Menace highlights the dangers of a corrupt and manipulative government that controls the masses to serve its own interests. The Trade Federation, under the influence of Darth Sidious, imposes a blockade on Naboo to force Queen Amidala to sign an unjust treaty. This political and economic manipulation recalls real-life themes of tyranny and oppression, giving the movie a profound social resonance. The pod race on Tatooine is one of the most memorable sequences in The Phantom Menace. Beyond the spectacular action, this scene symbolizes adventure and self-transcendence. Anakin, a young slave, defies expectations and takes risks to save his family and fulfill his destiny. The race is a mixture of adrenalin, suspense and courage, showing the determination and talent of our future hero. The Phantom Menace also offers an epic adventure in a futuristic setting, with interstellar travel, advanced technologies and exotic worlds. This combination of science fiction and classic adventure is reminiscent of George Lucas's signature narrative style. The film's visual universe, from the sprawling cities of Coruscant to the arid deserts of Tatooine, is immersive and captivating, transporting viewers to a distant galaxy full of possibilities. The Phantom Menace also lays the foundations for the prophecy of the chosen one, a central concept in the Star Wars saga. Anakin Skywalker is presented as the chosen one destined to bring balance to the Force. His introduction as a young slave on Tatooine to his meeting with Qui-Gon Jinn represents the beginning of his journey towards fulfilling this prophecy. For example, the scene in which Qui-Gon recognizes Anakin's exceptional potential and decides to take him under his wing evokes the theme of destiny and the inescapable fate of the chosen one. The Phantom Menace explores the complexities of political power and manipulation. The rise of the Trade Federation under the influence of Darth Sidious and its blockade of Naboo trigger a political crisis that threatens the stability of the Galactic Republic. This complex political intrigue, with its shifting alliances and secret maneuvers, gives the movie a depth and relevance that resonates with real-world problems. The Phantom Menace establishes many coherent links with the original Star Wars trilogy, enriching the saga as a whole. For example, the introduction of Darth Sidious as Senator Palpatine lays the foundations for his rise to power and transformation into a tyrannical emperor in subsequent episodes. Similarly, Qui-Gon Jinn's mentoring of Obi-Wan Kenobi foreshadows the master-apprentice relationship between Obi-Wan and Anakin that plays a central role in the rest of the saga.
Star Wars The Phantom Menace is much more than a science-fiction film for George Lucas. It's a deeply personal work that reveals his recurring themes, his malaise, his past experiences and his political convictions. To understand it, you also need to understand George Lucas' background.
First of all, the theme of the struggle against oppression and tyranny is omnipresent in George Lucas' work.
In THX 1138, George Lucas depicts a dystopian society where the government exercises totalitarian control over the population, a theme that is also found in The Phantom Menace. In both films, this control is embodied by an authoritarian regime that closely monitors its citizens, creating a climate of fear and oppression. In THX 1138, this surveillance is manifested through security cameras and flying drones, while in The Phantom Menace, it takes place through corrupt government bodies, such as the Galactic Senate infiltrated by Palpatine.
What's more, in both films, citizens are subjected to tight control over their emotions and behavior. In THX 1138, inhabitants are forced to take drugs to suppress their emotions, while in The Phantom Menace, Jedi are forced to follow the Jedi code, which forbids them to express emotions such as anger and passion. This control of emotions reflects the government's desire to maintain order and stability at all costs, even at the expense of individual freedom.
Moreover, in both films, individual freedom is stifled by a system of strict control. In THX 1138, inhabitants are assigned to specific jobs and roles in society, with no possibility of choice or autonomy. Similarly, in The Phantom Menace, the Jedi are assigned to specific missions and are subject to the authority of the Jedi Council. This lack of personal freedom reinforces the government's control over the population and creates a sense of powerlessness and despair among the inhabitants.
The parallels between The Phantom Menace and THX 1138 demonstrate the continuity of George Lucas' preoccupations with totalitarian control and government oppression across different contexts and fictional universes. These recurring themes illustrate George Lucas's insight as a filmmaker and his commitment to exploring the dangers of authoritarianism and the loss of individual freedom.
George Lucas' concern about the rise of authoritarian regimes during the Cold War is reflected in both films, illustrating his belief that individual freedom is fragile and must be protected against the forces of oppression and tyranny.
The characters in The Phantom Menace are not simply fictional archetypes, but deep reflections of George Lucas's own internal struggles. Anakin Skywalker, in particular, embodies the torments and dilemmas George Lucas felt throughout his life.
Anakin Skywalker faces a multitude of inner challenges that resonate with George Lucas' own struggles. First of all, Anakin is tormented by his inner demons, notably his fear of failure and his need for recognition. As a filmmaker, George Lucas has often expressed his own struggle with insecurity and self-doubt. Anakin thus represents this universal quest for self-acceptance and understanding, a theme that George Lucas explores profoundly through the character.
What's more, George Lucas has often said that he felt like an outsider in the film industry, trying to make a place for himself in a world that was foreign to him. Anakin, too, is an outsider, a freed slave who finds himself immersed in a world of Jedi knights and galactic politicians. His desire to fit in and find his place in this new universe mirrors George Lucas' own struggles to find his way in the film industry.
In addition, George Lucas' childhood had a major influence on his work, particularly his interest in fairy tales and mythological stories. These themes are omnipresent in the Star Wars universe, and are particularly explored in The Phantom Menace. The character of Qui-Gon Jinn, for example, embodies the archetypal mentor, guiding Anakin through his heroic journey. George Lucas' fascination with mythological tales is also evident in the struggle between good and evil, a central theme of The Phantom Menace and the entire Star Wars saga.
The film also explores George Lucas' political convictions, expressing them through the complex political intrigues of Star Wars. Corruption in the Galactic Senate and the rise of autocracy echo George Lucas' concerns about democracy and political accountability. He uses the Star Wars universe as a metaphor to explore the dangers of political passivity and mass manipulation.

George Lucas redefined digital technology in service of world-building and entertainment.
RLM's Mr. Plinkett reviews were meant to be satirical - he's an archetypal armchair critic whose criticisms take everything out of context and misrepresent the actual events depicted in the movies. He interviews his friends and calls it objectivity. Those assholes may not have meant to do it - maybe they did - but they ruined the Star Wars fandom by swaying so many people into hating the prequel films and are one of the main reasons George sold it all to Disney. They are to blame for The Last Jedi. Mr. Plinkett killed Luke Skywalker.
If he isn't satirical when he says "There are tons of opinions in the Internet and all of them are wronnnng...unless they are mine" then he is the most narcissistic piece of shit on UA-cam. Most of his critique is "I don't like that, so it's shit...movie JUST STARTED and it's already boooring... He skips or misinterprets what is going on in scenes to try to show that it's bad. He claims that midichlorians ruined Star wars for him and doesn't bother explain why. He hates the prequels so much that he spent 70% of his TFA review bashing the prequels and all he said about TFA were some gay jokes (because apparently he likes TFA, which proves he just wants copypaste of OT all over again).
He thinks that if he asks his friends to characterize prequel characters and they can't (or pretend that they can't for him) that means nobody else can and the characters are poorly written. Objectivity...
But most importantly, he doesn't just hate the prequels, he spreads a myth that Star Wars was "saved in the edit", that George Lucas has no talent and just got lucky (despite he wrote all OT and edited most of ep4 himself, and reshot ep5...), he even filmed documentary "People vs George Lucas" only to trash him. He takes clips out of documentaries and bullshits over them "You see people are terrified of George Lucas and nobody knows what are they doing", despite if you watch them, that's not true at all, everyone was invested and happy...He calls any special effects in prequels "CGI crap" despite each prequel used more practical effects than the whole OT, despite the CGI was groundbreaking at the time just like effects in OT and pushed technology forward, despite the fact that CGI is often harder to do than practical effects...
He makes fun of Rick McCallum's "It's so dense, every single image has so much things going on" as if detailed background and world-building is something bad...
So yeah, after so massive backslash over the internet which RLM started, after songs "George Lucas ruined my childhood", after death threats to Lucas and actors (Jake Lloyd still has scisophrenia and Ahmed Best almost killed himself in 2000s), after "People vs George Lucas", parodies, videos of killing Jar Jar Binks, etc... I understand why Lucas sold Star Wars to Disney (he donated most of the money, btw). These assholes deserve Disney sequels and nothing more.
P.S. Plinkett has annoying voice, disgusting image and disgusting jokes about killing hookers and how he farts. I don't understand why he has so many fans.
Episode 1 was my biggest dissapointment ever in a movie theater. It was so big, that I never went to see 2 or 3 in theaters at all.
The prequels suck, but the sequels suck even more
George Lucas's Star Wars prequel trilogy is a pure masterpiece, a wonderful, magnificent, exciting, significant, and extremely rich work that has greatly contributed to the story, universe, characters, lore, and mythology of Star Wars.

A fundamental and exciting turning point. The Clone Wars period is the best period of Star Wars. The fascinating plot that unfolds throughout the films. The rise of Palpatine, Darth Sidious, is masterfully depicted. His behind-the-scenes machinations to undermine the Galactic Republic and bring the galaxy under his control are meticulously presented. His manipulation to form a massive clone army and eradicate the Jedi with Order 66 is a central element of the story, explaining how the Galactic Empire took shape following the fall of the Republic and how Anakin fell to the dark side to become Darth Vader, a fallen hero who just wanted to save those he loved. Anakin Skywalker's transformation into Darth Vader is a superb, memorable, breathtaking scene. The connection with the original trilogy is very well done. Anakin's internal conflict between his loyalty to the Jedi Order and his desire to save those he loves makes his story deep and tragic. His journey to the dark side, with key moments such as his confrontation with Count Dooku and his heartbreaking final duel with Obi-Wan Kenobi on Mustafar.

Jackson, and Liam Neeson. Natalie Portman is superb, magnificent, sweet, sensual, and charismatic, giving her character Padmé Amidala queen and senator of Naboo an exemplary strength, determination, and courage. She's perfect, she's iconic. Her evolution from a queen to a senator, into a badass, elegant, and determined woman, is a central characteristic of the trilogy.

The Phantom Menace is a masterpiece and an important movie in the Star Wars universe. The Phantom Menace lays the foundations for the Star Wars universe. From the Galactic Republic to the Jedi, Sith and Padawans, the film plunges us into a rich and complex world. It also introduces iconic characters such as Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padmé Amidala and, of course, Anakin Skywalker. The movie tackles profound and important themes such as politics, corruption, power and destiny. For example, the rise of the Trade Federation and its blockade of Naboo illustrate the struggle for control and political manipulation. The Phantom Menace is above all the story of Anakin Skywalker, the chosen one destined to bring balance to the Force. His introduction as a young slave on Tatooine to his meeting with Qui-Gon Jinn represents the beginning of his journey into light and darkness. The movie is packed with memorable, iconic scenes. From the pod race on Tatooine to the final duel between Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Darth Maul, and the epic battle of Naboo, every sequence is carefully orchestrated. The Phantom Menace also expands the saga's universe by introducing new worlds, races, technologies and concepts. The planet Naboo, for example, offers a striking contrast to the more austere settings of Tatooine and Coruscant, while the Gungans, Dugs and Toydarians bring a new dimension to the livelier, more populated and more diverse Star Wars universe. The menacing shadow of the Sith hangs over the entire movie, foreshadowing Darth Sidious's rise to power and Anakin's ascent to the dark side of the Force, giving full meaning to the title of The Phantom Menace. The presence of Darth Maul embodies this imminent threat and adds a dimension of danger. George Lucas draws on many religious traditions to shape the Star Wars universe, and The Phantom Menace is no exception. The Jedi are warrior monks who follow a strict moral code and are dedicated to protecting peace and justice in the galaxy. Their belief in the Force, a mystical energy that permeates everything, reflects concepts of spirituality and universal connection. For example, the scene in which Qui-Gon explains the Force to Anakin is imbued with an almost religious atmosphere, reinforcing the importance of this belief in the Star Wars universe.
The Phantom Menace highlights the dangers of a corrupt and manipulative government that controls the masses to serve its own interests. The Trade Federation, under the influence of Darth Sidious, imposes a blockade on Naboo to force Queen Amidala to sign an unjust treaty. This political and economic manipulation recalls real-life themes of tyranny and oppression, giving the movie a profound social resonance. The pod race on Tatooine is one of the most memorable sequences in The Phantom Menace. Beyond the spectacular action, this scene symbolizes adventure and self-transcendence. Anakin, a young slave, defies expectations and takes risks to save his family and fulfill his destiny. The race is a mixture of adrenalin, suspense and courage, showing the determination and talent of our future hero. The Phantom Menace also offers an epic adventure in a futuristic setting, with interstellar travel, advanced technologies and exotic worlds. This combination of science fiction and classic adventure is reminiscent of George Lucas's signature narrative style. The film's visual universe, from the sprawling cities of Coruscant to the arid deserts of Tatooine, is immersive and captivating, transporting viewers to a distant galaxy full of possibilities. The Phantom Menace also lays the foundations for the prophecy of the chosen one, a central concept in the Star Wars saga. Anakin Skywalker is presented as the chosen one destined to bring balance to the Force. His introduction as a young slave on Tatooine to his meeting with Qui-Gon Jinn represents the beginning of his journey towards fulfilling this prophecy. For example, the scene in which Qui-Gon recognizes Anakin's exceptional potential and decides to take him under his wing evokes the theme of destiny and the inescapable fate of the chosen one. The Phantom Menace explores the complexities of political power and manipulation. The rise of the Trade Federation under the influence of Darth Sidious and its blockade of Naboo trigger a political crisis that threatens the stability of the Galactic Republic. This complex political intrigue, with its shifting alliances and secret maneuvers, gives the movie a depth and relevance that resonates with real-world problems. The Phantom Menace establishes many coherent links with the original Star Wars trilogy, enriching the saga as a whole. For example, the introduction of Darth Sidious as Senator Palpatine lays the foundations for his rise to power and transformation into a tyrannical emperor in subsequent episodes. Similarly, Qui-Gon Jinn's mentoring of Obi-Wan Kenobi foreshadows the master-apprentice relationship between Obi-Wan and Anakin that plays a central role in the rest of the saga.
Star Wars The Phantom Menace is much more than a science-fiction film for George Lucas. It's a deeply personal work that reveals his recurring themes, his malaise, his past experiences and his political convictions. To understand it, you also need to understand George Lucas' background.
First of all, the theme of the struggle against oppression and tyranny is omnipresent in George Lucas' work.
In THX 1138, George Lucas depicts a dystopian society where the government exercises totalitarian control over the population, a theme that is also found in The Phantom Menace. In both films, this control is embodied by an authoritarian regime that closely monitors its citizens, creating a climate of fear and oppression. In THX 1138, this surveillance is manifested through security cameras and flying drones, while in The Phantom Menace, it takes place through corrupt government bodies, such as the Galactic Senate infiltrated by Palpatine.
What's more, in both films, citizens are subjected to tight control over their emotions and behavior. In THX 1138, inhabitants are forced to take drugs to suppress their emotions, while in The Phantom Menace, Jedi are forced to follow the Jedi code, which forbids them to express emotions such as anger and passion. This control of emotions reflects the government's desire to maintain order and stability at all costs, even at the expense of individual freedom.
Moreover, in both films, individual freedom is stifled by a system of strict control. In THX 1138, inhabitants are assigned to specific jobs and roles in society, with no possibility of choice or autonomy. Similarly, in The Phantom Menace, the Jedi are assigned to specific missions and are subject to the authority of the Jedi Council. This lack of personal freedom reinforces the government's control over the population and creates a sense of powerlessness and despair among the inhabitants.
The parallels between The Phantom Menace and THX 1138 demonstrate the continuity of George Lucas' preoccupations with totalitarian control and government oppression across different contexts and fictional universes. These recurring themes illustrate George Lucas's insight as a filmmaker and his commitment to exploring the dangers of authoritarianism and the loss of individual freedom.
George Lucas' concern about the rise of authoritarian regimes during the Cold War is reflected in both films, illustrating his belief that individual freedom is fragile and must be protected against the forces of oppression and tyranny.
The characters in The Phantom Menace are not simply fictional archetypes, but deep reflections of George Lucas's own internal struggles. Anakin Skywalker, in particular, embodies the torments and dilemmas George Lucas felt throughout his life.
Anakin Skywalker faces a multitude of inner challenges that resonate with George Lucas' own struggles. First of all, Anakin is tormented by his inner demons, notably his fear of failure and his need for recognition. As a filmmaker, George Lucas has often expressed his own struggle with insecurity and self-doubt. Anakin thus represents this universal quest for self-acceptance and understanding, a theme that George Lucas explores profoundly through the character.
What's more, George Lucas has often said that he felt like an outsider in the film industry, trying to make a place for himself in a world that was foreign to him. Anakin, too, is an outsider, a freed slave who finds himself immersed in a world of Jedi knights and galactic politicians. His desire to fit in and find his place in this new universe mirrors George Lucas' own struggles to find his way in the film industry.
In addition, George Lucas' childhood had a major influence on his work, particularly his interest in fairy tales and mythological stories. These themes are omnipresent in the Star Wars universe, and are particularly explored in The Phantom Menace. The character of Qui-Gon Jinn, for example, embodies the archetypal mentor, guiding Anakin through his heroic journey. George Lucas' fascination with mythological tales is also evident in the struggle between good and evil, a central theme of The Phantom Menace and the entire Star Wars saga.
The film also explores George Lucas' political convictions, expressing them through the complex political intrigues of Star Wars. Corruption in the Galactic Senate and the rise of autocracy echo George Lucas' concerns about democracy and political accountability. He uses the Star Wars universe as a metaphor to explore the dangers of political passivity and mass manipulation.
