As much as I want to agree with you, there are also others that do deserve credit such as Hannibal Lecter, Heath Ledger's Joker, and many others (that are escaping me right now). Not to say that Vader is not one of the best villains, just there are many others that stand out for different reasons which makes them hard to compare
I feel like Anakin's life is the most tragic. He was a slave his whole life and he was so lost and misunderstood. He was trying to save the ones he loved but the dark side had takin him over. I love the Jedi but they let Anakin down tremendously. It isn't just a movie...its a tragic poetic story. Heartbreaking yet beautiful.
He Had No other choice 💯,If He wanted Palpentine Knowledge on how to save Padme,(Which was a Fallacy/Lie),Anakin Bought Into Cause He was Desperate & His fear of Losing a loved one of Death was Immeasurably which ended up happening,Others can turn around say why didn’t strike the Dark Lord Down right then & there He had a Choice Yh and right after that Sidious would torture him with Lighting & Jedi order be brought to its knees either way Heart ❤️ wrenching to see someone with a Pure heart struggle with Darkness within & Be Conflicted ova which choices to do & the Repercussions of them.
Not completely true. Anakin had a natural tendency toward the dark side..it was in his nature. He and Kylo Ren were polar opposites in that way. “I want more..I know I shouldn’t.”
@@CMDRFlyAuburn from what I heard, Force ghost Anakin does visit Rey and Ben Solo, and explains the Sith and Jedi to them. Disney cut that scene out, and I heard it broke Hayden Chistensen's heart.
@@WestXIV there were more, MUCH more Jedis. I don't think by bringing balance to the force means to equal the sides, but to let the force be force. To destroy their misusing. Therefore the chosen one had to destroy the old jedi order, who was too sure about their "right way" and the Sith who used the force for unnatural Personal benefits. To bring Balance means to stop all who using their for their own. To use the force in a way of harmony, in a natural way where you let die were is to die and let live where the force gives Life that is the Balance. No Sith who betrays death, or kill someone with the force, and no Jedi Order who is too arrogant about their right path. Anakin brought Balance through killing the emperor and Saving Luke, for that Luke can help the Force to fullfill the natural harmony and keep the Balance of the force as it should be.
@@lorindion6836 okay, I know this. But if there is two Sith and two Jedi, it would be the same as 2 + (-2). Now, if you don't get my joke you clearly need to rewatch the prequels again. And if you really think about it, him killing the Palpiten didn't exactly balance the force. Since there were two Jedi at the end of Return of the Jedi, that would technically unbalance the force with having only the light. You can't have true balance with out bad. Yin and Yang.
@@WestXIV yea, right. But not having a sith means not that there is no dark side of the force. There is and ever will be. Even if someone uses it or not. We need to know about the evil to know what is good, but that is no excuse for beeing evil. Imagine a sea. Calm and beautyfull. The Jedi drinks from it, but not too much So that the nature will still live and grow. The Sith on the other Hand drinks the whole sea alone cause they are thursty. Not watching about the needs around them. The Jedi Order from the prequels decided who is worth from drinking from it and who not. So they played gods. And thats not the way of the force, nor the drinking the whole sea. You have to live with the sea, with the nature. Thats the Balance. Not drinking all of them to kill an unstobable thurst, nor to decide who is worth to Drink from it. You need to know about the evil to know how to be good, but you don't need an evil Person to be a good one.
@@fersho450 Anakin Skywalker/Vader is the main character of Star Wars. The original 6 movies are about the fall and Rise of Anakin Skywalker. About the chosen one and how he brought balance to the force. Thats one more reasons the sequels failed. The main Star Wars Saga is a closed story. You can publish stuff labeled star wars but there should be no more episodes after episode 6 or before episode 1.
“You were my brother Anakin... I loved you!” Good lord that line rips my heart out every time... a good man, blinded by anger and turned into the villain of Vader.
Anakin is the perfect example of the expression, "The road to Hell is paved with good intentions." Everything he did, was with a good heart. He was loyal to the people close to him, until he thought they betrayed him.
And either Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back OR Rogue One will forever reign and live on as 2nd best (I can’t tell which because they’re BOTH so damn good!). But yeah man the sky is the limit, and Episode III was freaking hardcore w/ a very deep & dark plot where Anakin is obviously seduced by the dark side of the Force, had the most action BY FAR, and for that matter generally had so much going on in just 1 film! Not to mention one of the things about ‘Revenge of the Sith’ that I liked the most was when Anakin & Palpatine were first discussing their takes or perspectives on the Jedi vs the Sith. And then came the story of Darth Plagueis the Wise. Now that I will not forget! Quite deep, & probably as close as you’re going to get to Star Wars - Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords when it comes to depth. Mostly because of the grey Jedi Consular known as Kreia. But yeah man Episode III was a frickin’ masterpiece indeed! So was Episode V & Rogue One. ;-)
Oh, and I forgot to say first (before going in detail about RotS and after saying that the sky is the limit) that Episode III soared & skyrocketed as pretty much the very best a Star Wars movie could EVER be, period.
Cause it just NAILED IT in SO MANY critical points (especially the turning point after General Grievous was defeated by Obi-Wan), which George Lucas obviously took Episode III VERY seriously and did pretty much the very best he could when it came down to Revenge of the Sith, especially considering all the negative criticism he got in regards to Episodes I & II, the first two prequels, particularly Episode II: Attack of the Clones. And as someone else said in some review, after the huge failure of Episode II, which almost completely destroyed the prequels, the only way was UP, and Episode III went ALL THE WAY UP! It was simply something else, & was a total turn-around. Simply BY FAR THE BEST of the prequels. Thank the Lord for Revenge of the Sith, man!
Arshia Aghaei 🤦🏻♂️. Talking about the scene where he says the line that started this comment thread. It’s Vader telling Luke that...I’m saying that’s Anakin regretting his actions and telling his son it’s too late for me.
I'm an editor too. And this gave me chills. I love the color grading. But the best thing is the superb blending of clips, dialog and timing. This is great, and is the first thing I've seen in a while that makes me just want to make cool shit. I would tie this with "The Nindo of my sensei" as my favorite music video. I made my own Anakin tribute years ago, not nearly as good as this of course 3nfm9l0ZQHM

Why do you hate the rebellion so much Lord Vader.? Because they fight for a better tomorrow, when there is none How can you belive that Lord Vader the Empire is doing just that , there will be a better tomorrow for the citizens ! Maybe.... but not for me But you are the right hand for the most powerful being in the galaxy I once believed that and it COST me dearly, a piece advice admiral ... don't trust everything you hear
Nope ....Disney became this in a machinery of making fans get distant from other fans and making more and more movies and the quality is lost .... i was expecting more abou the return of Star Wars but only in case of saving one movie after all they did since 2016 ...TFA ....and still wondering
Anakin as early vader was epic , before he became half cyborg vader , climbing the stairs of the jedi temple with stormtroopers at his back. epic image or when he looked back hooded, and you could see his sith eyes... powerful stuff
Beautiful. Just Beautiful. I'm writing this comment with tears in my eyes. This has left me speechless. I've grown up thinking Darth Vader's story was one of the saddest of villains. You portrayed his story amazingly. Vader is hands down, no questions asked, the best character ever. Amazing work dude.
Eclipse Art I still think that the scene in Revenge of the Sith where the mask comes down on his face and he starts breathing is the best scene in cinematic history, it just has everything to it. I can imagine the silence in the theaters back in 2005 and everybody just staring at the screen.
2:02 hearing the echo "you were my brother anikan!", and have it switch between episode 3&4 Of them fighting😭 and seeing ben Kenobi's face remembering the dark times😭
Omg it got me nearly that just me who thinks the jedi did a horrible job training anakin the only person who trusted him was obi wan he is so misunderstood he just wants to save his wife like he failed to with his mother I hate the jedi for what they did to him!!
Episode III gave depth to the original trilogy, that it previously didn't have. Before the prequals Darth Vader was mysterious. Thanks to the prequals we learned how tragic his life had been, what a loving person he once was, and how he became the man in the suit, and that made all the difference.
It is terrifyingly tragically beautiful, in the first glimpse is obi wan being overwhelmed by his emotions, dealing with the fact of not being able to recognize the person he has in front of him, just pure pain, but then, just the look of the old obi wan, just his pain, unable to hide the fact that he still love Anakin as a brother, but his eyes tell that because of this, all the pain and suffering he had gone through his exile years came back in one go by feeling the weight of Anakin's attack, cold merciless but heavy powerful attack with the sole intention of killing him, therefore realizing that he's long life "friend" will never come back, that even in his exile he still hoped that Anakin would return, but Anakin's blow ended that, so it is almost perfect
This was the best star wars video I have ever seen. Hands down no questions asked. The editing, the overlays, the colorization, the special effects, the audio, the timing, literally everything was perfect!! I was blown away!! Can you make the future star wars trailers please? XD. Amazing video, this is definitely gonna be one of my top new favorite videos :)
I've gained a new respect for the prequels of late since my 5 year old has become a star wars fan. These are solid movies, RotS especially. The story of Anakin has to be amongst the saddest and most tragic of all-time. And Hayden's acting, especially at the end of E3, was top notch. I almost want to see a new project made where Anakin doesn't turn, just to see how things would've ended up.
@Carlos The movies had their own strengths and weaknesses, but in which movie do you get see such a clear and compact comparison of his past and future self? Character contrast/development can be powerful and character contrast is what this video shows
@@christophergrant3596 I didn't know there were correct ways to process my emotions. I guess we should all feel sad/angry/happy about all the same things at the same time for the same reasons.
WOW, at first i was like "yeah another skywalker video, nothing special but pretty cool" and then the change came and i was like "OMFG what da hack is going on here?!" This is pretty much the most epic tribute I've ever seen ! Those Slowmotion edits an sound and light - DAMN I LOVE IT I love the fact that this is so aggressive and brutal, like Vader himself - not this emotional sad mimimi stuff. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE GIMME MORE
I love how you included both "too dangerous to be left alive"s right next to each other. Anakin needed the Jedi code to keep himself under control, but when he needed it most, even a master was breaking it
I'm 30, I grew up watching the original trilogy, I love the original trilogy..... And the prequels, you can't understand the original triology without it. Is the light and tge shadow of that story, and ep. III it's the climax of Star Wars also with Vader redemption when he destroyed palpatine. For me ep. III is the best of the prequels and i couldn't say if it's better than the original trilogy, for me it's at the same level but in one thing is the best of all films: music, revenge of the sith has the best music of all star wars, 'battle of the heores' is astonishing and all the tracks are so emotional, 'anakins betrayal', 'anakin' s dark deeds', 'the inmolation scene'.... And much more, the best job of John Williams. And now we live dark times, fuck you Disney.
If I could like this 1000 more times I would. Best tribute I’ve seen. The shot of little Ani w the inside of the mask followed by Vader putting the mask on for the first time? Absolute gold.
This video is a masterpiece. You were completely able to convey the tragedy of the whole story. Well-chosen music, scenes, dialogs ... Just a brain explosion. I've never seen something like that before.
Dude! I’ve been seeing this recommended next to my revenge of the Sith modern trailer forever and haven’t clicked it until now! And man! Love the art you created! Making it your own with the color and time remapping, music is excellent! Keep it up!
TheChowder72 I agree. The Chosen One is longer so I get to enjoy it a little better, but overall this one is better. We gotta find a way for it to be shared more, this is a true masterpiece
Star Wars may be a fictional universe. But the emotions that the story awakens in me are real. I love this tribute and thank the creator for making it. I have always related to Anakin the most in nearly every way. The emotions I felt watching this made me cry. Thank you for making this.
@@maanyashukla370 Yes, due to Disney and Kathleen Kennedy inserting feminist politics etc. I am all for it, but not with these feminist politics shoved down my throat. That's why TLJ and Soylo Failed badly, Disney even lost stock from it. Having Lando fuck droids and make jokes about it! Is his family a bunch microwave's?
That small moment at 2:08; Alec Guinness was such a brilliant actor that that single moment reflects the entirety of Ewan’s performance and overall role in the PT. You can actually see him recalling the death of his friends and the battle that took Anakin from him. Great editing, it really brings out that kind of emotion.
That’s the best Star Wars Video I’ve ever watched. Every second of this video was just phenomenal. The scenes, the music, the cut, the perfect connection of the prequel trilogy and the original trilogy... it was an emotional summary of that what Star Wars is! I just want to thank you for this clip!
Yes, this is a masterpiece of a video. This is what Star Wars is, not this new Disney Trilogy Charade. All I can say is they need new writers like writers from KOTOR and people who want to make a story that stands on its own, but still in that universe. I mean there is literally a vast galaxy to explore with many different timelines. We need George back! We need a Sith Trilogy! We need to be rid of this SJW and kiddie garbage. LONG LIVE STAR WARS!
Star Wars is a classic modern tragedy. Anakin is such a dynamic hero, trying to beat fate in order to save those he loves, he is powerful, but can’t escape fate. We are rooting for him, yet his character flaw brings him to his own doom. It is just such a well written story. I could watch him and Padme fall in love all day
Episode 7-9 should've been about the Old Republic, imagine the characters they could have created and the setting. It could be gone into more detail on how the Chosen One prophecy came to be.
L3GEND, next time say it should have it's own Saga separate from the one we have now instead of saying it should be 7-9 bcoz that is not how timelines work, the Old Republic happened waaaaaay before, not after
I’ve been saying the same thing. Specifically I’d love an entire saga devoted to the Mandalorian Wars. Their war with the Jedi was already hinted at in TCW and Rebels TV series. All the themes and stories told in the Knights of the Old Republic game... I’d love to see that come to life.
My fav parts: Anakin Skywalker: it is too late for me, my son. (What occurs in my head after vader says this)- Padme: there is still good in him...i know... there's still... 3:10 Love how the music upbeat corresponds to "flashes" in vaders mask
The enhanced audio, the enhanced visuals, the color grading, the storytelling , the overlays and split screens, This is a Jedi master class in video editing and one of the best tributes I have ever seen.
This video is incredibly emotional and without question my favorite Star Wars tribute video online. The editing is next level. The only thing I wish was added is after Padme asks "Save me?" at 1:06 Anakin finishes with "from my nightmares."
By the force... This video gave me such a swell in my heart. It's superb editing like this that reminds fans of how powerful these stories are. I am very hopeful the next chapter in the Skywalker saga completes the circle.
“WOW!” Truly spectacular! One of the best Vader tributes on this website, dead serious. Thank you so much for not using a over used track too. “May the force be with you.”
The boy who promise to return and free his mother, but was too late. The young Jedi who advanced much quicker than the rest, but despised. The man who wanted to save the love of his life, but failed.
This was absolutely beautiful! Truly amazing! The greatest Star Wars video tribute & Anakin tribute I have ever seen. Truly a masterpiece of a video! Thank you so much for this! The Force is definitely Strong with you!
This is so fucking good holy shit. Also thank you for the "He was too dangerous." parallel. So many people miss that, and it's such an important moment in why Anakin chose the dark side.
This is easily the best tribute ive seen, cant believe its taken me this long to find this. However I feel it is missing the most important part, his redemption at the end. So powerful, can make this a perfect PERFECT video.
Literally how can you not love episode 3
"But...but muh originals!"
Easily
whosVariations my favorite movie
Three was great, loved it. They found their stride with that movie. :)
Its a flawed film but far from a pièce of shit.

It adds intensity to the fight
Omg it got me nearly that just me who thinks the jedi did a horrible job training anakin the only person who trusted him was obi wan he is so misunderstood he just wants to save his wife like he failed to with his mother I hate the jedi for what they did to him!!
Look up obi wan remembers. Shit will hit you right in the feels
wow. 2:00 - 2:08 is....stunning. Those clips were blended perfectly. I can't stop watching this.
I actually cried watching this omg
Same
How can you Not!?
Can't blame you, lots of emotions when you understand star wars unlike others
It’s pure that’s why it’s a whole childhood in a flash. The edit is a masterpiece
The ending is emotional seeing young anakin and what he had become
Episode III gave depth to the original trilogy, that it previously didn't have.
Before the prequals Darth Vader was mysterious. Thanks to the prequals we learned how tragic his life had been, what a loving person he once was, and how he became the man in the suit, and that made all the difference.
Nothing can compare to Vaders character in movie history, will be one of the best villians for a very very long time
That kenobi switch from young to old tho
maybe my fav part
When?
Britannia rules the Waves 2:01 - 2:04 ua-cam.com/video/XbqYgrWNKSo/v-deo.html
It is terrifyingly tragically beautiful, in the first glimpse is obi wan being overwhelmed by his emotions, dealing with the fact of not being able to recognize the person he has in front of him, just pure pain, but then, just the look of the old obi wan, just his pain, unable to hide the fact that he still love Anakin as a brother, but his eyes tell that because of this, all the pain and suffering he had gone through his exile years came back in one go by feeling the weight of Anakin's attack, cold merciless but heavy powerful attack with the sole intention of killing him, therefore realizing that he's long life "friend" will never come back, that even in his exile he still hoped that Anakin would return, but Anakin's blow ended that, so it is almost perfect
As director Krennic said,‘Oh, that’s beautiful.’

This was the best star wars video I have ever seen. Hands down no questions asked. The editing, the overlays, the colorization, the special effects, the audio, the timing, literally everything was perfect!! I was blown away!! Can you make the future star wars trailers please? XD. Amazing video, this is definitely gonna be one of my top new favorite videos :)
I appreciate the kind words! Happy to see you enjoyed the video so much.
Too true
how is the quality so good?????
The Chosen One is the best video.
Neenkin
The slo mo was so impressive, that I am BEGGING you, use those effects on your favorite SW duel. It would be.......better. More.
I've gained a new respect for the prequels of late since my 5 year old has become a star wars fan. These are solid movies, RotS especially. The story of Anakin has to be amongst the saddest and most tragic of all-time. And Hayden's acting, especially at the end of E3, was top notch.
I almost want to see a new project made where Anakin doesn't turn, just to see how things would've ended up.
1:53+, that was way more epic than I was expecting
You captured the sadness of his story so much better than the movies did. Thanks for making this!
Happy you enjoyed it!
I'll enjoyed this video.
I just think you didn't process the movies properly. I can't watch Revenge of the Sith without tearing up a little.
@Carlos The movies had their own strengths and weaknesses, but in which movie do you get see such a clear and compact comparison of his past and future self? Character contrast/development can be powerful and character contrast is what this video shows
@@christophergrant3596 I didn't know there were correct ways to process my emotions. I guess we should all feel sad/angry/happy about all the same things at the same time for the same reasons.
WOW, at first i was like "yeah another skywalker video, nothing special but pretty cool" and then the change came and i was like "OMFG what da hack is going on here?!"
This is pretty much the most epic tribute I've ever seen !
Those Slowmotion edits an sound and light - DAMN I LOVE IT
I love the fact that this is so aggressive and brutal, like Vader himself - not this emotional sad mimimi stuff.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE GIMME MORE
korbilaux lmao lol..
You said it all. I´ve never got goosebumps like this watching a video.
you seem like your on your knees....
korbilaux same here, I’ve seen so many and just clicked and was waiting to press close but was shaking after 20 seconds
Oh my God I cried when young Skywalker was shown at the end. This is a masterpiece for Star Wars. Thank you.
I love how you included both "too dangerous to be left alive"s right next to each other. Anakin needed the Jedi code to keep himself under control, but when he needed it most, even a master was breaking it
"not a day has gone by when I haven't thought of you..." i think it was until the very end.
2:03 hit me really hard. That's some incredible editing. Fantastic job. 100x better than Ep 7-8... Reminds me why I love Star Wars.
Oozywolf loved that same moment!! I felt it showed how the battle never changed
Wow, I just noticed. Past and present. I teared up..
*"SHE WAS ALIVE! I FELT HER!"*
Literally the best video on youtube.
I will never forget this one franchise it’s just different unforgettable if you even tried.
He is a most iconic villian in cinema history
I'm 30, I grew up watching the original trilogy, I love the original trilogy..... And the prequels, you can't understand the original triology without it. Is the light and tge shadow of that story, and ep. III it's the climax of Star Wars also with Vader redemption when he destroyed palpatine.
For me ep. III is the best of the prequels and i couldn't say if it's better than the original trilogy, for me it's at the same level but in one thing is the best of all films: music, revenge of the sith has the best music of all star wars, 'battle of the heores' is astonishing and all the tracks are so emotional, 'anakins betrayal', 'anakin' s dark deeds', 'the inmolation scene'.... And much more, the best job of John Williams.
And now we live dark times, fuck you Disney.
Agree
I Agree
Agree
This seriously needs more views! One of the best edits I’ve seen!
Still watch this all the time, seriously the best.
Tskull 517 agree
Have you seen "kenobi"
My favorite character ever!!!
Can't stop rewatching it
If I could like this 1000 more times I would. Best tribute I’ve seen. The shot of little Ani w the inside of the mask followed by Vader putting the mask on for the first time? Absolute gold.
This video is a masterpiece. You were completely able to convey the tragedy of the whole story. Well-chosen music, scenes, dialogs ... Just a brain explosion. I've never seen something like that before.
Dude! I’ve been seeing this recommended next to my revenge of the Sith modern trailer forever and haven’t clicked it until now! And man! Love the art you created! Making it your own with the color and time remapping, music is excellent! Keep it up!
AD_edits same story with me man! Also no loved your episode 9 fan trailer.
L3GEND ❤️
One of the best Tribute i have ever seen in my life !
BUT only 138k views ? LET'S SHARE IT !!!!!
Jesus, probably the best Star Wars fan made video I've ever seen
This was beyond perfectly edited, some of the absolute most incredible work I've watched on this platform. Hats off to you man!
“It is too late for me, my son “ gives me chills every time
This honestly tops the “Chosen One” in my opinion
TheChowder72 I agree. The Chosen One is longer so I get to enjoy it a little better, but overall this one is better. We gotta find a way for it to be shared more, this is a true masterpiece
The transition from pre-cyborg Darth Vader on Mustafar to Luke’s voice to the iconic cyborg voice of Vader...
I will always have chills.
This was Anakin Skywalker's story and how he became the galaxy's most fearsome Sith Lord, DARTH VADER
Star Wars may be a fictional universe. But the emotions that the story awakens in me are real. I love this tribute and thank the creator for making it. I have always related to Anakin the most in nearly every way. The emotions I felt watching this made me cry. Thank you for making this.
"I believe you will bring balance to the force..." Wow this ending!
Woah! This was awesome! Favorite part is the helmet with all the memories and it ending with young Anakin.
We need a darth vader spin off
Alex Cerjinog Yes!!!
Not at this time in Star Wars history, due to politics.
@@soybasedjeremy3653 are you serious? They made Darth Vader so badass.
@@maanyashukla370 Yes, due to Disney and Kathleen Kennedy inserting feminist politics etc. I am all for it, but not with these feminist politics shoved down my throat. That's why TLJ and Soylo Failed badly, Disney even lost stock from it. Having Lando fuck droids and make jokes about it! Is his family a bunch microwave's?
Star Wars theory is doing a fan film
Damn. That transition when obi wan said "you were my brother anakin. I loved you" it went from young obi wan to old obi wan so quick and fluid
comeing back 5 years later and its still a masterpiece
That small moment at 2:08; Alec Guinness was such a brilliant actor that that single moment reflects the entirety of Ewan’s performance and overall role in the PT. You can actually see him recalling the death of his friends and the battle that took Anakin from him. Great editing, it really brings out that kind of emotion.
I watch this every once in a while and it is that moment you mentioned that I always think of.
Absolutely spectacular!! This is the best Vader tribute I've ever seen. Great job. You deserve an Oscar for best editing. 🏆👍👏
You are the best editor ever we truly need a Star Wars movie as epic as this felt.
"It is...too late for me, my son."
I was crying. And I dont cry. This is beautiful. It shows the story of a man who lost everything. Who was a slave of his entire life span. Good job.
HOLY S*** This is one of the most beautiful thing i have ever watched! Thank u!!!
I needed to watch it multiple times!
I watched it three times in a row and I am not done just yet
You should make a lot more Star Wars Tributes like this. You have a skill beyond comparison. Keep up the good work
Thank you so much! I'm sure it won't be my last Star Wars tribute.
Neenkin I'm glad to hear that. You earned a sub!
I really appreciate it!
My thoughts exactly
That’s the best Star Wars Video I’ve ever watched. Every second of this video was just phenomenal. The scenes, the music, the cut, the perfect connection of the prequel trilogy and the original trilogy... it was an emotional summary of that what Star Wars is! I just want to thank you for this clip!
Yes, this is a masterpiece of a video. This is what Star Wars is, not this new Disney Trilogy Charade. All I can say is they need new writers like writers from KOTOR and people who want to make a story that stands on its own, but still in that universe. I mean there is literally a vast galaxy to explore with many different timelines. We need George back! We need a Sith Trilogy! We need to be rid of this SJW and kiddie garbage. LONG LIVE STAR WARS!
Star Wars is a classic modern tragedy. Anakin is such a dynamic hero, trying to beat fate in order to save those he loves, he is powerful, but can’t escape fate. We are rooting for him, yet his character flaw brings him to his own doom. It is just such a well written story. I could watch him and Padme fall in love all day
This is the True Star Wars .... the catastrophic and chaotic events of the Force around the Chosen one, the young Skywalker.
I'm such a fan of this character. So complex, just amazing. Also, I simply adore how you edit. The pauses, the suddenly slow motion. Perfect.
This is undeniably beautiful, thank you for this! I literally teared up.
Episode 7-9 should've been about the Old Republic, imagine the characters they could have created and the setting. It could be gone into more detail on how the Chosen One prophecy came to be.
So episode -3 -2 -1 ?
All the episodes are about the Skywalker's not the old republic thats going to be its own trilogy
More like the prequals of the prequals
L3GEND, next time say it should have it's own Saga separate from the one we have now instead of saying it should be 7-9 bcoz that is not how timelines work, the Old Republic happened waaaaaay before, not after
I’ve been saying the same thing. Specifically I’d love an entire saga devoted to the Mandalorian Wars. Their war with the Jedi was already hinted at in TCW and Rebels TV series. All the themes and stories told in the Knights of the Old Republic game... I’d love to see that come to life.
instant goosebumps...
All Star Wars built on the fate of Anakin Skywalker
*"You were my brother Anakin. I loved you...*
Youre the only one who tought about us, the few ones with ultrawide monitors. Thank you, this is beautiful.
This is beyond amazing.
I have no words. I'm crying.
My fav parts:
Anakin Skywalker: it is too late for me, my son.
(What occurs in my head after vader says this)-
Padme: there is still good in him...i know... there's still...
3:10 Love how the music upbeat corresponds to "flashes" in vaders mask
The enhanced audio, the enhanced visuals, the color grading, the storytelling
, the overlays and split screens,
This is a Jedi master class in video editing and one of the best tributes I have ever seen.
This video is incredibly emotional and without question my favorite Star Wars tribute video online. The editing is next level. The only thing I wish was added is after Padme asks "Save me?" at 1:06 Anakin finishes with "from my nightmares."
By the force... This video gave me such a swell in my heart. It's superb editing like this that reminds fans of how powerful these stories are. I am very hopeful the next chapter in the Skywalker saga completes the circle.
One of my all time favorite videos ever made
“WOW!” Truly spectacular! One of the best Vader tributes on this website, dead serious. Thank you so much for not using a over used track too. “May the force be with you.”
The match cut from young to old kenobi, hands down best editing I have ever seen in my entire life.
The boy who promise to return and free his mother, but was too late.
The young Jedi who advanced much quicker than the rest, but despised.
The man who wanted to save the love of his life, but failed.
That was actually unbelievable I felt like I was re introduced to Star Wars ❤️
This was absolutely beautiful! Truly amazing! The greatest Star Wars video tribute & Anakin tribute I have ever seen. Truly a masterpiece of a video! Thank you so much for this! The Force is definitely Strong with you!
Wow ! This is the best anakin skywalker video I ever seen ! Masterpiece.
Amazing edit. Can’t fathom the speed ramping of all of the old episodes. Hands down the best Star Wars tribute I’ve seen.
This is so fucking good holy shit. Also thank you for the "He was too dangerous." parallel. So many people miss that, and it's such an important moment in why Anakin chose the dark side.
Awesome man. One if my all time favorite characters.
This is why I love Star wars.
This and “THE CHOSEN ONE” from HFP are amazing
This is easily the best tribute ive seen, cant believe its taken me this long to find this. However I feel it is missing the most important part, his redemption at the end. So powerful, can make this a perfect PERFECT video.
This was incredibly well done. Fantastic work.
