The line in which Anakin says that Grievous is shorter than he expected implied that they had never met before, so when making the animated series they had to write it so that Grievous and Anakin would never meet. This is why Obi-Wan fights him so much instead. Even Ahsoka met Grievous before Anakin did.
Woah, I never put that together. I figured it was a continuity error, but Anakin never did meet him.
@@incrediblecaptain he met him in an hologram
And yet they didn't think to do the same thing with Anakin and Dooku with the line, "my powers have double since we last met Count."
@@guiwars2Objects displayed in holograms may vary.
In person. They never met in person until ROTS
"Baby i love you but i wont murder children for you" comically real.
Far wiser than Anakin.
La mejor frase que he oido en toda mi vida
Sometimes you just gotta set boundaries 😜
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2blind love isn’t true love, that’s how we know u two both love each other 😅
An actual fun fact, the start of "Battle of the heroes "(the Anakin Obi-Wan fight), Hayden and Ewan WERE that fast. There is no speed enhancements
Back when they actually cared.
Hayden still has some of those skills even now, he’s ridiculously impressive.
@@SaintMarianne Most impressive.
Even in hindsight you could tell Hayden loves lightsaber/sword fighting with how much he enjoys doing the coreography training.
Hayden hasn't lost a beat
That scene, where Obi Wan gives Luke to Beru, always got me. I guess it was seeing him sleeping, blissfully unaware of the tragedy that had just befallen his parents, and the fact that he was going to grow up without knowing them.
Here is a no so fun fact that made me burst into tears. During the Order 66 scene with Yoda on Kashyyk, we see Gree attempt to execute Yoda alongside another Clone Scout Trooper and then both being decapitated. That other Scout Trooper is Jek, one of the three Clone Troopers that accompanies Yoda on the very first episode of the Clone Wars. We see that he actually listened and took Yoda's advice by actually retraining and becoming a Scout Trooper, the division of clones whose primary focus is reconnaissance and using their environment to their advantage in battle as opposed to firepower.
Just goes to show the tragedy that is Order 66. Yoda literally changed Jek's life for the better, and now here is Jek being consumed by an unconscious desire to kill him.
Had to look it up, didn't believe you. But you're right. That makes it way sadder. Won't look at that scene the same way again
That was Jek? 😮😮😢😢
@@logan3093 Yeah, I can never look at that scene the same way, nor can I look at the "Ambush" episode the same way. That information about Jek came from a book which gives further context to episodes of the Clone Wars and their aftermath. In it, we know that all three clones listened to Yoda and their fates. I'll share all three of them alongside Yoda's advice.
"Rys, always focusing on the enemy are you. For inspiration, look to yourself and those beside you."
Rys would end up surviving until the last year of the Clone Wars, in which he followed Yoda's advice, sacrificing himself in an explosion to save his squamates.
"Jek, concerned about weapons you are. Weapons do not win battles. Your mind, powerful it is. Outthink the droids, you can!"
Jek would follow this advice, leaving the Coruscant Guard and retraining to become a Clone Scout Trooper, a division of Clones that specialize in reconnaissance. He would eventually rise to the rank of Captain. He is decapitated by Yoda when order 66 is issued alongside Commander Gree, attempting to kill the person that fundamentally altered the course of his life.
"Thire, rush not into fights. Long is the war. Only by surviving it, will you prevail."
We see Thire taking this advice somewhat indirectly from what we understand, because he survives the entirety of the Clone Wars. He eventually becomes a Commander in the Coruscant Guard. We see him in Revenge of the Sith after the duel between Yoda vs Sidious. He is the center clone that reports Yoda missing. Again, he is trying to kill the man that changed his life.
@@bemasaberwyn55 Yeah, it's sad.
I've had my head messed with before, and 180'd after everything came to light. Makes me think that the inhibitor chips do _basically_ the same thing.
What's tragic is, none of whatever is used to push the clones that far, is real. It's simulated behavior.
It's easy to poke fun at Yoda for being so quick to kill the Clone troopers when Ahsoka wasn't willing too, but Ahsoka got off light on order 66 in a way because even though though tried to kill her, her perspective on their innocence remained intact. Yoda and Obiwan meanwhile were fighting those troopers over the cold corpses of decades old friends, students and children.
Yoda also didn't have that much of a personal attachment to the Clones like Ahsoka. You can make the argument about Obi-Wan but Obi-Wan understands that he needs to put his personal feelings toward them aside.
This needs more likes cuz I get tired of people talking about their willingness to cut the clones down. Jedi are outnumbered 1000 to 1 and have ZERO context as to why the troops they've spent the last 3 years fighting alongside are turning on them. To prioritize survival by whatever means neccesary till you can get some answers is natural.
By the way Kit Fisto actually died from another reason besides being overwhelmed. He sensed Anakin approaching and that distraction gave Palpatine an opening to take him out. So if Anakin stayed in baby jail, Mace and Fisto could have taken out Palpatine together.
Ian McDiarmid's performence will always be something special.. between the overacting with "No No No No No No!" and the speech when Anakins fate is sealed... great actor, i'll remember seeing this in cinema in 2005 and the whole theatre went silent.
And when you get the full picture of the story.. like the origin story of Sheeve Palpatine... i mean, the term "Monster" is not enough to describe him, even his own Master said "This is not a human" basically.
so this is how liberty dies with thunder applause this quote is even more relevant today 🥺😔😭
When Padme was buried, you can see the huge belly. They tried to cheat the Emperor, looking like she had died pregnant.
So they just stuffed some tissue up her cooch like a turkey?
Ion see why they thought that would've worked
Let's agree that Plo was the best Jedi and his death was the breaking point
Yep 😢
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 btw at the death star scene when palpatine and Anakin/Vader was looking that officer next to palpatine that was tarkin that we all hate in the clones wars and in the original
explain,extrapolate and compare..,Sir
If you would?
Not doubting the veracity of your statement
I swear!
Genuinly interested...
Qui gon jinn was a better jedi than plo, the entire thing and how everything played out rested on his death alone
Brother, Anakin was told he was the Chosen One, you literally saw Force Gods tell him in the Clone Wars and Qui Gon of course lmao. Also Lucas
That's part of why that arc was so interesting. We don't ever actually sww what Anakin thinks about the prophecy in the movies, so him saying that it's a myth in that episode was a great character moment.
(I don't blame them for forgetting, it was 4 seasons ago and they watch a lot of other stuff too)
@@sebastianoleary2743 that’s why canon matters and why the clone wars is just so good because he knows and we know he knows. Movies stated or not.
Weren't their memories wiped after the Mortis arc?
@@wingedbluj1674no, they remember what happened on mortis, yoda brings it up in the “communicating with Qui Gon” arc
@@wingedbluj1674 no and we know that those things actually happened because Morai literally exists and is a physical manifestation of the daughter or linked to the daughter/ahsoka.
Also at the end of clone wars Yoda arc he asks Anakin about it and Anakin said that Obi wan thought it wasn’t real. It was.
there's one scene you mentioned at the end with Obi-Wan saying he saw Anakin kill younglings and then cover his mouth. that's not because he was forced to, it's because Ewan McGregor struggled to get through that scene without laughing or smiling at the word "younglings", so he was hiding it.
Upvoting so that they see it
1. I love the detail that, in the Clone Wars series, Anakin and Grievous never interact. A decision made specifically to abide by this movie's timeline
2. Revenge of the Sith is easily one of the most *meme-filled* movies ever made. And even though its definetly alredy the best of the prequels, its permanently elevated by the fact that its forever etched in the internet hall of fame lol
3. The conversation at 13:30 is arguibly the best one in the movie.
It has *so many* implications crammed into it while also feeling like a story that's clearly been changed just enough to poke at Anakin's insecurities *specifically*
4. The final lightsaber duels, are honestly just plain epic. They go on for a bit too long, but the choreography is generally amazing.
I don't think it is long. It's the perfect length for those 2.
Too long? My brother, Yoda v Palpatine was way too SHORT, and Anakin v Obi-Wan was just right and had the perfect amount of scenery, movement, emotions, and the PERFECT music to accompany it. One thing I’ve always loved about the end of Anakin v Obi-Wan is how slow both of them begin to move. They’ve been fighting for an extended period of time, they are both tired, and you can FEEL that by the end of the fight, which makes their fight seem all the more real. It is hands down the best lightsaber duel in Star Wars, the most epic sword duel in all of film, and one of the best fight scenes of all time. I would not change a thing about it (though I’d make Palpatine and Yodas fight go on for a while longer bc of how epic it was as well).
To see why Grievous had a cough, you need to watch "Clone Wars 2D"... It is basically a shorter version of "Clone Wars"... The two shows take place in about the same time frame, but 2D has scenes/stories that the newer "Clone Wars" doesn't cover... But... It was made BEFORE "Revenge of the Sith"... The show is basically 2 full length movies... Best part of the 2D is that Grievous is at the very TOP of his game... Also the introduction of Ventress, Anakin becoming a knight, and how he gets the scar on his face...
For me, that is the only true representation of Grievous. Plus Mace Windu gets to be much more badass.
I’ve been with this Star Wars journey since the start and I can’t belive you guys are done with the clone wars era, brings a tear to my eye
I mean they still have bad batch right? A little bit of clone wars
@@MikeT54 no, the point of bad batch is to solidify that the clone wars era is done and it is time for the rise of the empire
@@pogshark1 but at least we still had clones fighting.
@@ARandomInternetUser08 true
The Clone Wars and now Tales of the Jedi and the Bad Batch give Episodes 2 and 3 and the whole series really so much more weight. Anakin's fall is even more tragic when you see so many of his GOOD moments between him and Ahsoka and Obi Wan in Clone Wars. Anakin always had a dark side but he really WAS a good general and friend and cared for people and his friends deeply. So sad. POOPATINE is a real villain.
Hello Emme fan
@@bemasaberwyn55 you never know, people could just call him that anyway.
The fact that when this movie premiered, Ahsoka and Rex weren't characters that even existed yet. The final season of Clone Wars ended as a perfect parallel alongside this film.
One interesting detail is the fact that in comparison to Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, the battle droids are much more verbal in this movie and have more a comedic tone to them too. There's actually a reason for this in the lore which also factored into why the droids in the Clone Wars series are much more outspoken and funnier.
Droids tend to develop personalities if they don't receive regular memory wipes. Since B1s and Super Battle Droids were designed with quantity over quality in mind, the Separatists likely didn't bother with frequent memory wipes to save costs. They originally wanted the battle droid armies to always be remotely controlled from one command ship (like in Episode 1) but after they saw how that turned out after Episode 1, they needed a new solution. Newer models of droids were given more autonomous functions. They became actual, intelligent droids instead of automatons. They are just intelligent enough to display some personality traits, but dumb enough that their personality is childish and clumsy. When more orders came in for independently functioning droids after the Naboo debacle, the Trade Federation had to scramble to acquire enough droid brains to fulfill the order. As a result the B-series battle droids ended up with a whole assortment of cheap processors designed for worker droids, protocol droids, and whatever else Baktoid could purchase in bulk, all rather crudely reprogrammed for combat. Fun fact for Episode 2: It also partly explains why C-3PO's head is almost plug-and-play compatible with the B1 body and vice versa when his body and head got swapped with a battle droid during the arena fight.
The Sith use the primal emotions like rage and hate for their power. When Padme confronts Vader on Mustafar, he can't fully control his anger so he lashes out at Padme when he believes she (she TOO) betrayed him.
How did Ewan McGregor not win an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. Alec Guiness did, and he barely did anything
And repeatedly hated on Star wars despite its success
@championlotus69 he didn't hate on it. He enjoyed working with George. He didn't understand it's popularity. He was a very classical actor and science fiction was kind of taboo at the time.
@@logan3093not quite the full story. He hated being AFFILIATED with it so much. He was essentially typecast by a role he did not care too much about, and THAT is what bothered him. So in a way, he DID come to hate Star Wars, but more so by affiliation rather than hating the movie itself (although he did describe the film as “fairy-tale rubbish” and referred to the dialogue as “banal,” the latter of which is def true in Ep 4).
@richardlowery5100 he seemed to have more fond things to say about it near the end of his life. Of course he was critical of it, but to say he hated it is a bit much imo
And Alec Guiness being typecast is one of the first instances of Star Wars fans' toxicity.
A tradition that will continue well to this day.
One thing that Clone Wars really does for this film, Anakin looks like so much less of a spoiled brat when he's denied the rank of Master.
A major route to becoming a Master is to train a Padawan to the rank of Knight and to Anakin Ahsoka was more than ready for that position but never achieved it due to the Council's lack of faith in her. He trained her well and was denied the recognition normally given for that achievement because of a Council blunder.
Qui Gonn spirit taught Obi Wan to become a force ghost, (at the end of the movie Yoda said to Obi that someone returned from the netherworld of the force). In all those years in solitude in Tatooine Obi Wan learnt it. That´s why he told Vader in episode IV: "if you strike me down, I´ll become more powerful that you can possibly imagine".
18:46 On the book Windu and Sidious were moving so fast that a bystander could only see light flashes.
“His fate will be the same as ours” = foreshadowing. Obi Wan’s killed by Vader on the Death Star, Vader kills himself by way of Palpatine’s lightning on the 2nd Death Star, Palpatine dies (temporarily, at least) when Vader throws him down the reactor shaft
Although the decision to turn to the dark side was Anakin's alone, the choice did not come from thin air. His natural proneness to impulsivity and emotion without the support systems he needed in place made it easier for Anakin to stumble down a path of darkness.
Geetsly’s one said that: “Anakin never became Vader. He was always Vader”
The dark side is one of the more addictive and unstable drugs in the universe for a force user, and he went from 0 to 100 with it, so he completely lost control at the end, hence why turned on Padme.
@@Adanu191 the final cruelty of the sith is that when you gain the power to protect tyke ones you love. You end up being the one to kill them
Yeah,, Orphans have issues..
tada
Less LOL
20:28 "Execute Order 66."
"Yes, Lord Sidious." -Rex
*Moments after Ahsoka sensed what happened.
Fun film, but I can never get over how much of a cartoon villain they turned Grevious into; The 2002 Clone Wars cartoons treated him like a slasher villain that could fight 6 jedi at once and win. Apparently, George Lucas just gave them the design for the General and the cartoonists made him a powerhouse. Really wish we got that version of him.
Yeah watching Revenge of the Sith after the Clone Wars hits so much harder😢
The deleted scene where Padme Hugs Anakin on Mustafar she brings a knife to kill him, but she couldn't do it. Also the move Obi-Wan uses to dismember Anakin is an illegal Jedi move
Ahsoka: "they may be willing to die, but I will not be the one who kills them"
Yoda: "for my bodycount, good this will be"
also Ian McDiarmid is always so fun to watch as Palpatine, he hams it up and is so camp, but it's an entertaining as hell performance. Count how many times he does a dramatic slow head turn in the Opera scene.
*Revenge Of The Sith is my absolute favorite out of the prequels. The double climactic lightsaber duel that takes place toward the end of the movie, Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader VS Obi-Wan Kenobi on Mustafar and Yoda VS Emperor Palpatine on Coruscant in the Senate chamber are top-notch across the board. Musical score, fight choreography, visual effects, audio effects and emotional impact. I give them all an A+.*
@13:21 on the left of the screen you can see George Lucas and his daughter Amanda as Pantorans. Also, the youngling that defended Senator Organa is his son Jett.
Also fun fact, Mace lasted longer then the other masters cause he was easily the best duelist there. He actually took an unfinished lightsaber form and refined it into a new form called Vapad. Palpatine had a harder time countering him because it was the only style Palpatine didn’t know cause Mace came up with it.
And your guy’s take on the dialogue is pretty accurate. Harrison Ford said that when they were doing the original trilogy there were times he had to go to George and basically tell him “This isn’t how humans talk to one another.”
Loved how Yoda made the “come at me bro” after Force Pushed Sidious.
Its amazing how much more pain this movie caused me after clone wars 👌🏽
For me, the Jedi council, pushed A LOT Anakin to the dark side. They´re afraid of him, never truly trusted him, never gave him any serious mission... and mixed with Anakin fears (mostly for Padme) and feeling himself always excluded... the final step was all the Emperor´s manipulation during years but... the Jedi Council had big part of responsibility in this disaster. Even in the last chance he said the truth to Windu. Anakin tried and tried to follow the right path, but all these things became him in Darth Vader.
Fun fact: The reason why General Grievous coughs a lot more in this movie is because this takes place after the events of the original 2003 Clone Wars episode where Grievous captures Palpatine. And right before making his escape, Mace Windu force crushes Grevious body which results in him coughing so much onward
Obi-Wan Kenobi originally specialized in Form IV (Ataru), trained in the form by Qui-Gon Jinn. However, upon witnessing his master's death due to Ataru's lack of defensive capabilities, Kenobi decided to switch his focus to Form III (Soresu) in order to eliminate this weakness in his own technique. Soresu relied on tight bladework and subtle dodges to provide maximum defensive coverage, minimizing exposure to ranged weaponry. Form III focused on strong defensive technique to essentially outlast an opponent, waiting until they began making mistakes due to frustration or fatigue, before taking advantage of these lapses and countering.
Master Windu once said that Obi-Wan was THE master of the form. Not a master. THE master of Soresu.
He was one of the best options to take on Grievous' multiple lightsaber attacks and also very good at fending off hordes of enemies.
Tragically, this meant that for the fight against Anakin, it would be a prolonged duel of the fates in a battle of the heroes. Both of them were brothers, trained together, fought together and been through so much together. Anakin vs. Obi-wan became a fight where you had two Jedi that knew each other's moves and techniques; who would basically fight on equal strength and skill until one would fall and other would be victorious after they wore each other out.
Despite the Jedi and Yoda talking about fear
It's ironic how fearful and distance they're from Anakin which would obviously cause tense incounters when speaking or being near one another that caused Anakin to be much closer to Palpatine
It's a mess and while I understand both sides between the Jedi Order and Anakin then again the Jedi essentially allowed the Chosen One to be around a Dark Lord shifting the power balance between the force
-8:29 That is explained in the short 2003 2D animated Clone Wars (Mace Windu was involved). Even though it's not canon anymore I can recommend still watching it. Grievous was pretty scary in that and it also introduced Ventress I think.
-13:21 Those 2 on the far left we have seen in a clone wars episode. The man is George Lucas himself btw.
-15:06 We would have learned so much more about this Utapau planet and it's different tribes of people in that cancelled clone wars Utapau arc btw. The full unfinished version of that arc can be found on YT btw.
-18:46 On the book Windu and Sidious were moving so fast that a bystander could only see light flashes.
-21:09 The left clone "Commander Gree" we saw in that one CW episode with Ahsoka, Ventress and Luminara and the one on the right was one of the clones who is with Yoda on that mission in the very 1st CW episode 1x1, where they have that touching heart-to-heart talk about each clone being different. It's all very sad and tragic.
-25:21 There is a clone wars fan animation of their full fight with added deleted scenes on YT called "Battle of the heroes". I liked it really much and hope you check it out as well.
-27:38 His hate keeps him alive for now so it does kinda help him.
-28:14 A theory says that Palpatine might have syphoned Padme's live essence to keep Anakin alive.
"It's been said that the 501st got the best of the war. We also got the worst. On Felucia, the Seps dug their metal heels into the muck of that alien hellhole and dared the Republic to come in after them. So we did, only to be met with month after month of flesh-eating diseases, shrieking nocturnal predators, and other sights that haunt me to this day. Cut off and for all we knew abandoned by our superiors, our only hope was Aayla Secura, our Jedi commander. Without her iron will, none of us would have come out of that mess with our sanity, or our lives. When her death came, I hope it was quick. She earned that much."
"When the 501st was finally rotated out of Felucia, Aayla Secura made a point of seeing us off personally, calling us the bravest soldiers she had ever seen. It's a good thing we were wearing helmets, because none of us could bear to look her in the eye."
- Clone Trooper of the 501st Legion
5:15 They did, but, in The Clone Wars, they had different, deeper, voices.
Palpatine: “Leave him or we’ll never make it.”
Anakin: “His fate will be the same as ours.”
Anakin was right and so was Palpatine. Obi-Wan surviving led to Luke becoming a Jedi and Obi, Anakin and Palpatine all died on the Death Star because the sequels don’t exist
34:25 That was actually bc Ewan McGregor was holding back a laugh because it was hard for him to say that line with a straight face 😭
30:35 "She just feels so warm"
Me: *Snickers*
I've said for years that George Lucas is a master world-building craftsman when it comes to writing, but his dialogue writing has always needed help. If he had more people he could rely on to write interpersonal scenes for him while he focused on the big picture, George would've been unstoppable.
So Anakin normally wouldn't be too bothered by not being granted the rank of master but what he wanted was access to the restricted section of the jedi archives. Being a master grants you access and he wanted access to that knowledge so he could find a way to prevent Padmes death. Palpatine knew the council wouldn't give him that rank as well so they played right into his hands. He also preyed on the council's arrogance in betraying Anakins trust. They may not have been keeping score but the jedi greatly betrayed his trust twice in the clone wars. Him being lied to about Obi-wan's death and the false grieving, and how they treated Ahsoka despite everything she did for the order. It was the perfect chance for Palpatine to goad Anakin to his side.
Hypothetically if the jedi weren't so arrogant and saw the writing on the wall they could have did him that one favor to mend some of the damaged trust they had caused. And if not an advanced form of Force heal he would have eventually stumbled upon sith records of their ability to implant dreams in people to manipulate them. Then he would have put two and two together.
This is the only movie that is hard to re watch incredible movie but sends powerful messages
Since you've now watched Revenge of the Sith again after The Clone Wars...there is a theory that Anakin was excited at the beginning because Ahsoka might’ve been coming back...it's sad
30:15
One to grow up royalty with riches, one to grow up scraping sand for moisture and food.
Side note.
I once read a theory that Obi Wan intentionally put Luke on Tattooine, his father's homeworld with his father's name, and with his father's adopted relatives to lure Anakin there for a final fight and that is why Obi Wan stayed on Tattooine, watching over Luke.
This was long before Disney, the Obi Wan series, and even the prequel movies. I'm talking mid 90s and the advent of the internet and people sharing all sorts of information.
The Emperor first refers to Luke as "The Son of Skywalker".
Luke uses Skywalker as his last name several times.
Vader's name is revealed to be Anakin Skywalker.
Obi Wan clearly set a trap for Vader forty years ago in movie times, before all of the new stuff.
I've never thought differently.
Not sure if you guys have already seen it, but you should check out the original animated Clone Wars. Originally they were 2-3 min episodes which ended with the first viewing of Grievous. The second season got longer with I think 10-15 min (might be less, been a while) episodes and ends right when this movie begins. You will also learn how Grievous got his cough from that series.
People have been picking this thing apart for years but it just occurred to me; you'd think if Luke was adopted as a newborn he would call his guardians mom and dad, not aunt and uncle.
I’d recommend y’all read up on Grievous’ backstory. It’s very compelling and I’d bet it’d change your perspective on him
Always awesome to revisit Revenge of the Sith reactions from the people you like watching...
16:20 I love how the Clone Wars series and this scene connects together flawlessly! So satisfying 😌
20:42 This scene us sad because her and the Commander were close friends. When they drew their weapons toward her, she was assuming they saw the enemy. Not to mention, the clones are brainwashed by Order 66. 😔
The Star Was Clone Wars 2D Micro-Series is often overlooked and very worth watching. In their original form they were 3-5-minute episodes shown between other programing on Cartoon Network. It filled in the blanks between the last movie and this one. If you watched them, you had context for the Jedi that fell in this movie and a lot of other events throughout it.
It also provided the explanation for General Grievous' wheezing and coughing. This was the first glimpse we got of Grievous prior to the movie. When they started writing and animating the series, they just had rough descriptions of him, and they made him a total badass. Much more dynamic and threatening. Lucas decided Grievous needed to be a prototype Vader and imperfect so the way he was being portrayed wasn't going to work. They ended up giving him a grievous chest wound in a scene that took place just before this movie started.
I always look at the MicroSeries as Rebel propaganda, the Clone Wars as (early) Imperial propaganda, and the novels/comics as "the real war", with some event bleed over between them
I am so glad you did this i am a 1990s kid so I grew up with the prequels so this is my favourite Star Wars movie.
Aw brought back so many great memories. What a great start to my morning. Thanks Kooky and Crazy :)
23:45
Nute Gunray: "Lord Sideous promised us peace!"
Bethany: "... I mean, there is a kind of peace in death."
... wow, I wasn't expecting her to go so dark with that. Goddam!! 😂
Palpatine is played by Ian McDiarmid and he is a fantastic actor.
I am writing this to help out Bethany and Ken and this video and this channel with the algorithm 🥰
I'm so grateful i was able to rewatch Episode 1 in theaters. It was awesome. Brought back good memories. Rewatching Episode 3 as an adult hits different. So tragic.
Awesome reaction to a enjoyable star wars movie Poor Anakin
Why am I getting still holding hands 13 years later fantastic 👏
Not believable to cover his mouth? Obi-Wan was feeling grief. People react to grief in many ways and that's one of them. People do that all the time...
5:02 Love in sync you two were! 😂💪
This movie has my favourite use of the force to influence a weak minded opponent, Kenobi making Skywalker give up the low ground advantage.
Darth Plagueis the wise and Palpatine, with dark experiments, unwittingly "created" life... and that´s why Shmi Skywalker was pregnant with no man. When the Emperor Palpatine... Darth Plagueis apprentice... had all over control... he murdered his master Plagueis in his sleep.
Many people believe that mace windu told anakin to wait at temple because if he was correct mace windu was going to grant him rank of master for ending the sith
21:24 "Baby I love you but i wont murder children for you." genuinely made me smile and laugh way harder than I was expecting.
Anyway, interesting fact, the reason why the little boy recoils back in the scene when Anakin ignites his saber is because Hayden surprised him by yelling, "Boo!" when filming that.
21:32 And the Jedi padawan who was gunned down in front of Bail Organa is Zett Jukassa who was actually played by Jett Lucas. George Lucas' son. You can also see him appear in the background when Obi-Wan sits in the archives and is looking up Kamino. After Madame Jocasta says that Kamino doesn't exist, she walks away to talk with Zett before the scene cuts.
28:42 Not only was it painful, but Palpatine ordered the medical team not to use any anesthesia at all when Anakin was being treated. He wanted Anakin to feel all of the pain from the operation. He purposefully made the first version of the Vader suit to be slow, heavy, and clunky so that in combat, he would be frustrated and enraged whenever he felt weighed down. Vader would use all of his rage and hate to channel the dark side.
Revenge Of the Sith anniversary today. This is the best of the saga .
The funny thing is that obi cover his mouth cause the actor could not stop laughing while saying that line
Grievous was coughing because mace window crushed his chest with the force
Grievous coughs because in one Star Wars animation series earlier than Clone Wars, Mace Windu uses the forbidden force crush ability on his chest. That’s what damages his lungs.
You held his arm!
Ain't that somethin? Anakin has to be THE CHOSEN ONE, fight on the front lines of a Galactic war, turn the other cheek to Ashoka being banished, win the war, spy on his friend kill Dooku AND find the sith lord the WHOLE jedi council couldn't figure out so that Windu can start trusting him. On top of all that, just let your wife die bro, it's natural
5:01 ... Yeah that's why you are both together hehe. Lovely reaction. Much love from the UK!
Darth Vader didn't actually killed Padme. I don't consider him as a bad guy. Don't forget that before Padme's death, he lost his own mother. Which started off his path to the dark side, and The Emperor increased it by manipulation. Padme even said just like Luke, that there's still good inside of him.
Which he did at Return of the Jedi. Even when Luke unmasked him. All you see as a broken and sad man who lost everything that is precious to him.
Darth Vader is still one of the best characters in Star Wars history, and he always will be. Until the newer Star Wars films ruined Darth Vader's sacrifice and redemption. I'm still pissed that they brought The Emperor back in the final movie for no reason. Ray calling herself a Skywalker is also a mockery to Luke's legacy.
We don't consider Vader a bad guy?
@@natea2247 Sorry about that. Meant to say "I" rather than "We". Gotten excited of writing about Darth Vader.
fun fact the jedi kid thats shot in front of Bail Organa is actually played by George Lucas' son
Thanks guys. I swear you guys react to all my favorite things. Love your cute raccoon dog.
Tales of the Jedi, Tales of the Empire, and The Bad Batch should be next up, they tell stories before the Clone Wars and in the aftermath of it.
Then Andor and Rebels to show the beginning of the Rebellion.
17:38 I know you two were looking forward to this very moment, ever since the first season of Clone Wars! 😂💪
It took me until this moment to realize that the cut down younglings that Yoda and Obi-Wan observe in the Jedi Temple were Reeva's classmates, if I'm not mistaken.
I can make the order 66 scene just a little bit sadder. When Aayla Secura was killed, she saw her clones raise their blasters and she immediately looked forward. She trusted her team so much that she never suspected they were betraying her, she just assumed they were aiming at an enemy she hadn't noticed.
not sure if its still cannon but Grevious coughs all the time because Windu force crushed his chest when he kidnapped the Chancellor
You should also check out the 2008 The Clone Wars animated series by Genndy Tartakovsky. It is best interpreted as tales told over drinks in a cantina...
"No Pudu, There I was looking at [xxxx] take on an entire [xxxxx]"
But it gives extra context to many, many things.
Have you ever watched the 2003 cartoon mini-series "Clone wars"? I think you would find it interesting. It may no longer be part of the canon, but was intended as such when it was released, serving as a bridge between "Attack of the clones" and "Revenge of the sith". And I would say at least 75 % of it still works with present canon, and it contains several important scenes and character introductions.
Agree they should it check out they're missing out on one the coolest clones fordo and the arc troopers
You two should check out some Star Wars fan made tribute stuff like: SC38 Reimagined by FXitinPost. The Chosen One, Kenobi and The Greatest Teacher Failure is by HFP. Ahsoka Tano - Faith and Maul - Hatred by Darth Porg. And Obi-Wan has PTSD by Samurai Sosa. Just to name a few XD I think you'd enjoy them after everything you've watched.
I mean, if Windu has just "whoops"'d a few inches forward, he'd have finished everything. I mean, reaching back for a big swing- DUDE, it's a lightsaber. Just tap him in the chest, it'll do the job.
27:59 every time my first thought to that question is "not all right but well done" and i'll sort myself out thank you
edit: 30:12 luke's planet didn't get blow to kingdom come... well just once but thats legends if i'm not mistaken but my point stands xD
4:29
"Oh, you say that too."
God dammit. I love how the TFS vocabulary has infiltrated your lives as it has done mine.
heres also another funfact: palpatines deformities arent from the redirected force lightning. it is from the corruption of the darkside that was kept hiden through sith alchemy.
IT HAS BEGUN!!!!! 🙏🏽💪
The reason grevious is only coughing in this movie is that during the chancellor kidnapping, Mace Windu force-crushes his chest/lungs. Shown in the old 2003 clone wars show
you mean the show where Grevious is ACTUALLY a monster.
I actually find Lord Grievousssss tale particularilly cruel and tragically fated!
*Also*
I have a 1:24 metal model of the Jedi Slayer I "modded" with UV, luminecant pearl paint...
As always Lord Bitch Ass Black is cruel with his boons!
I was hoping you'd upload your Episode 3 rewatch! It hits a lot harder after watching the Clone Wars, doesn't it? We get so much more context for why things turned out the wat they did, you almost don't blame Anakin for turning to the dark side. Almost. I still remember seeing this in the theater when I was 9 years old, even back then I knew it was in my top 3 favorite Star Wars movies. I don't think it's better than A New Hope, not by a long shot, but I have a bit more fun with this one, so it just barely edges out A New Hope in my top 3 behind Return of the Jedi in 1st and Empire Strikes Back in 2nd.
So, there are a couple of fun facts to recap that make the movie even better, the first being at about 9:15. This line plus the line Grievous says to Anakin right before indicates that the two had never met in person. This is something that Dave Filoni and the Clone Wars team had to take into account and did so quite well. If you watch any episode of the show with both Anakin and Grievous, they never meet face to face; even the episode where the two are exchanged in a prisoner swap, Anakin is unconscious and dragged on the ground and Grievous is locked in a device keeping his head facing forward so he can't look down. Gotta love that attention to detail. At 21:10 the trooper with Commander Gree that tries to execute Yoda is Jek,, who we met in season 1 episode 1 where he and two other troopers helped Yoda fight through a droid ambush by Asajj Ventress to meet with King Katuunko of Toydaria on it's moon, Rugosa. When Yoda talks with each of the troopers in the cave during their rest he says to Jek, " Concerned about weapons you are. Weapons do not win battles. Your mind, powerful it is! Mmm? Outthink the droids you can." After the battle, Jek took Yoda's advice to heart and retrained to be a clone scout trooper, eventually becoming a captain in the Ranger Corps. He would accompany Commander Gree's 41st Elite Corps to aid in Kashyyyk's defense where the very Jedi that gave him the advice that eventually led him to being on Kashyyyk would be the one who killed him when Order 66 was activated. Later on, when Palpatine orders some of the Coruscant Guard to search for Yoda's body, the clone who leads the search is Thire, the lieutenant who led Jek and Rys with Yoda on the mission to Rugosa in season 1 episode 1. He has since been promoted to Clone Commander by the time of Order 66, and was the one who informed Palpatine that there was no sign of Yoda's body. A squad of Coruscant Guard troopers commanded by Thire would also be the ones that escorted Palpatine on Mustafar when he was searching for the now critically injured Darth Vader.
The scene where Obi-Wan was telling Padme about Anakin killing younglings that you mentioned at 34:23, Ewan McGregor has said that he covered his mouth because he kept laughing at the word "younglings," so that might be why that bit felt off, but the majority of the iffy moments really do come down to George Lucas not really being the best at writing dialogue. He had kind of surrounded himself with yes men by the time he was making the prequels, so nobody really challenged him when he would come up with a bad idea, and that ultimately led to a lesser product overall. The fight between Obi-Wan and Anakin didn't actually have any speed up, that was all Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen. Between all of the prequel fights both of them had actually become very adept at fight choreography and that duel was kind of the culmination of all of those fights. I think that duel is the longest on record in a movie, too.
Well, I think that's all of the fun facts I wanted to recap, but I do have a couple of questions for you guys. First, now that you've seen the Clone Wars, which Order 66 death shown stung the worst for you? Mine is easily Plo Koon, because we really got to see just how kind he was, especially to his clones. He even has that line in the Malevolence arc in season 1, where they're waiting to be rescued but the troopers with him, Boost and Sinker, don't think anybody will come. One of them says "We're just clones, sir. We're meant to be expendable." Plo Koon responds by saying "Not to me." It's such a great moment that just makes it that much harder seeing him shot down and burn up in a big explosion. The other thing I would ask is, who do you think gives the best performance in the movie, and which performance is your favorite? My answer for both of these is easily Ian McDiarmid as Chancellor Palpatine/Darth Sidious. He just sells every single line he has, and just embodies the character so well. Plus it seems like he's having the absolute time of his life playing Palpatine which just adds so much to the performance.
I think that's all I've got for today. I'll see you guys again for Tales of the Jedi next! See you then 😀
Ah! You say that too. 🙌
The movie might be memed a lot, but that just shows how much we love it. Sometimes you just want a fun time.
The Xenomorph reference. 👍🤣
Clone Wars (2003) explains why Grievous is coughing. Mace Windu crushed his lungs.
