Idk how many know this so fun fact: Unlike on the ground where the clones easily best the droids. In dogfights, the seppies are alot stronger compared to clone pilots and they lack the skill, although they are decent pilots, to beat the computing power of tri-fighters and vulture droids. In fact, the clones lost most dogfights that didnt have a jedi with them as the jedi's reflexes are even better than a droids computer, up until the introduction of the y-wings which heavy shields and swivelling turret helped to win alot of dogfights for the republic.
I love that Palpatine, even though he's supposed to be a prisoner, is sitting in a huge throne overlooking the battle. I mean, it just screams that he'll be the emperor. Awesome!
This is why that clusterfuck of an episode 9 will never have the longevity of the prequels. There's no depth in plot or execution. Just a load of copy pasted ships.
The Prequels seriously had some unnecessary hate when they first came out tbh. Now with The Sequel Trilogy I think a lot of Star Wars fans have seemed to grow to love the prequels
@@johnbarrientosiii6586 the only real problems with the prequels is some of the lines are weird or just not well acted. But most the time they are arguably the best stories and best visuals of all the starwars trilogies
Little fun fact; that Lucrehulk which had its shield flare up may have had Thermal-shields, a reactive form of energy shields that much more visibly and violently deflect incoming fire. First chronologically addressed in the Clone Wars episode “Cat and Mouse” I believe.
@3D World yes I did it’s probably from that when I was younger I always loved that level and Revenge of the sith also is my favorite movie and most watched movie so they are all contributing factors the more I think about it
@@CosmoKraemer yeah idk if in Lego SW the game is the same but in the complete saga i always laugh when i crash and appears the destroyed wing in fire animation
At least for me it's because when I was younger I had the attention span of a gold fish and would watch this battle then get distracted playing lightsabers or something and then come back at the end of the movie so I've seen the beginning and end of this movie at least 3x as many times as the rest of it
16:40 The shot of Anakin saving Palpatine while cutting down two droids and Obi-Wan also cutting down droids being added into the beginning intro of The Bad Batch was an awesome move by the animators.
14:50 red is security usually shipboard security sometimes possibly base defense. They don't have the backpacks with extra comms and powercells that normal soldiers with no color marks have. (Also in Legends many ship security droids were OOMs, not B1s, they came with built in droidbrains even before Episode 1 and those brains are a bit smarter than the super cheap ones they went for when they needed to upgrade ALL the B1s.)
@@TPTGopher Yea, also the Lukerhulks for some reason remind me of an inverse Federation ship. Sorry, not a trekkie I just liked catching episodes on TV with my grandpa. But I’m sure you know what I mean. Do you think the Lukerhulks were inspired by the Federation ships?
people also forget the battle of Coruscant has/had a ground battle by the time Anakin and Kenobi showed up meaning the Sequels would never be able to outdo this battle.
I wish we could see it in canon, and have much of the fighting on the clone's side be the Courscant Guard and 41st Elite Corps/ 9th Assault Corps landing pad troopers.
Not sure about the sneak attempt at the ending of your comment, I mean it certainly facts you presented but your conclusion at the end comes across as more opinion that rational continuation of your opening premise
@@NeilCWCampbell that’s the most unnecessary comment I’ve seen lmao. He stated an opinion at the end. Didn’t try to sneak anything in and never said he was saying a fact. Stop trying to be a smart ass
@@Commander_Appo That was the case in older lore, but in the boarding actions in the Clone Wars show, they just use standard droids. However as good as the Clone Wars show is, it constantly uses the wrong colours, such as the security and pilot droid being standard droids in the Malevolence Arc. That’s one example but there are many more, especially in earlier seasons. Hope that clears up confusion.
During the final Clone Wars Arc of season 5 Anakin had dealt with the Buzz Droids using the force on top of his ship, however the bottom half of his ship was completely covered with them which led to Ahsoka saving his skin. Another sad but interesting detail is that the Clone Pilot named Odd Ball was in the clone wars series on numerous occasions usually accompanying Obi-Wan or Plo Koon, and this battle marks his death.
@@epicsardines6440 he doesn't, people falsely attribute the death of an unnamed clone pilot to Commander Oddball. there have been no mentions in canon or legends that says he dies. and in canon he's confirmed to be involved in the battle of utapau.
2:54 During the ground battle of Geonosis there is a part where Yoda orders all the Republic artillery to open fire on the nearest sphere section of the Trade Federation ships that are taking off. The artillery that shoots at them that we get a good shot of shoots an electric looking sustained blue beam. That Venator has those on board to be used in a land invasion. They were put right next to the near useless bottom hanger bay on that particular Venator, at that time of the battle. That's what's shooting the CIS ship. I believe that is Anakin's flag ship.
My headcanon is that the little blue light as Anakin and Obi-Wan fly down into the battle is them passing through the deflector shield of the Venator they're passing.
15:43 I love how the one droid pilot covers his mouth like he just doesn’t know what will happen to him. He’s also the same droid that survived in the next shot.
When watching Space Battles, I'm usually playing a game of "spot the spaceship". Especially after the lore-split into "Canon" and "Legends" to see which ships I thought to be Legends are, in fact, still Canon and never had been Legends to begin with (for the OT and PT at least. For the content after the Disney takeover, it's about seeing which ships have become Canon again). Though needless to say, after all this years, it has become more of a "see if you can spot a ship you somehow haven't been able to spot yet" for any content that isn't recent.
If your spotting Legends ships in the Prequels and Original Trilogy then those were always Canon like Venators and Imperial Star Destroyers. But if you are referring to space battles from newer Star Wars content like the Raider Class Corvette in Battlefront 2 and Squadrons or a Dreadnought heavy cruiser showing up in Rebels then yes those would be Legends ships reappearing in Canon.
I think that’s probably the best thing the newer movies are for like the sequels just because they tried to go crazy with the Easter egg side of things
@@captaincoolbreeze9429 Sorry, I seem to have written it in a way which made it a bit unclear. For the OT and PT, I mean ships which are usually "hidden" in the background and you (or just me, I dunno) might not know were never not canon like the Recusant-class light destroyer which could be seen in the background during the Battle of Coruscant. But for the content after the Disney takeover, you hit the nail on the head. Though needless to say, after all this years, it has become more of a "see if you can spot a ship you somehow haven't been able to spot yet".
3:29 they actualy did! it was a part of a ride called Star Tours: The Adventures Continue.A virtual ride which had a bunch of events from the star wars universe
How long do the battle droids that get sucked into space just orbit around Coruscant before they power down (yikes) and/or get picked up by random space freighter crews and go on an adventures because the war ended a few days later (fun)?
I don't believe that the ships were in orbit, the ships keep themselves afloat with their engines and once the engines fail the ship falls to the planets surface
For the question with the tower there was a book i think that explained it was an abandonned spaceport, so the only victims of the crash were some firefighters because apparently some crashed because of the Débris.
@@eliaspeter7689 yes but you need traffic control to help military ship to land (or crash). Especially in huge battle when many spaceships would land with damage or destroyed coms
Hey you beautiful people 👋 come say "This is the way" in the Discord if you came from the video: discord.gg/ESMxk27 Btw, does anyone have the Star Wars "Storyboards: Prequel Trilogy" book? I need it for my next vid. If you have it and want to help out with the next vid, send me a pic of it on twitter or discord plz :)
Lol I love how the original clone wars version of this battle was nothing but providence cruisers. No separatist variety at all. Also that little green and red blaster cross is really interesting. Not to oversimplify but generally speaking republic ships shoot blue seps shoot red. In the lore it's confirmed there are early model star destroyers like the victory class in the battle so maybe there's a victory of screen we don't get to see since imperial ships usually shoot green. Fun fact, don't remember which novel mentions it, but a young Captain Palleon from the Thrawn trilogy actually commanded a victory class in this battle
I just found this channel and spent a good chunk of my day watching all these slowed vids. I really love this detail nitpicking. It really gives the movies so much more life
“A droid shot another droid. That’s the first time I’ve ever seen this happen.” The B1 droids Yoda messed with and the B2 he controlled in the Clone Wars episode “Ambush” would like to say a few words
1:04- I’m really loving these videos and you are pointing out a lot of the stuff I noticed when I first watched these movies and shows but no one I knew saw them! Honestly, I’d love to just have a conversation with you because so far you are definitely the closest to someone like me that I’ve ever seen, met or have ever known!?! And that’s kinda impressive to me!
Fun fact: In Star Wars Legends Lorth "Apology accepted Captain" Needa was leading a pack of Legends-EU starships from the old RPG books that was juuuust offscreen above the Invisible Hand keeping it pinned and telling him they'd shoot him to pieces if he couldn't get Palpatine on holo in ten minutes. And he DID help shoot it apart, so really Vader choking him was revenge for forcing him to land Half a Ship.
@@josesanchezrodriguez1783 I think yeah the Tarkin novel had a bunch of old ships (From being mostly a leftover Legends story) Did the Needa dialogue end up in newcanon too? Interesting.
Seeing Anakin and kenobi flying in perfect unison showing their connection to the force as master and apprentice was always my favorite scene from the prequels..its a shame that the next few scenes on the cruiser was so rushed.
I thought it too, they look like they are flying upwards, but i'm not too sure, also, given that vulture droids where bastly more common is weird that he took down only 7 vultures and +20 tri fighters
2:56 the lasers are actually from SPHA's (the walkers you see in AotC shooting down a Core Ship) but don't worry i also thought the same thing when i was younger :)
@@Commander_Appo No, ion cannons in Star Wars are emp weapons only, the shut down electronics without much actual damage (the jawa blunderbust that sorted out R2 in A New Hope is an example of an ion weapon). Now in real life ion weapons are scary AF. The can penetrate armor better then even HEAT rounds and the energy of the beam is deposited deep inside the target causing it to blow up from the inside. That and they also dose the area with deadly, deadly radiation is an added bonus. They're still a long way off as a practical weapon since they're more complicated to make then normal particle beam weapons (which are almost worthless on the surface since they're attracted to magnetic fields giving them horrible accuracy, the whip around like the Ghostbusters proton beams, and are rapidly absorbed by the air giving them crap range) and do to less work being done on them so far lag behind lasers in efficiency (I think modern prototypes are in the 8% efficient range which means you need 12.5 megawatts of power for ever megajoule of output) making powering them a problem plus the whole radiation thing will probably limit them to space in the end anyways.
@@Commander_Appo I haven't played battlefront so I'm going to take it there was a SPHA on that map. In that case the map might of had the I variant which used a massive Ion cannon. The default version (later known as the T variant) housed a turbo laser (though it acted more like a super laser).
My favorite part of the scene is always when they get out of their fighters and are clearing the hangar. Their lightsaber movements are SO SMOOTH it's so freaking sick I always rewind it like 5 times on that part
Besides General Grievous, this space battle is one of the biggest highlights for me with this movie. and I love the slow downs and zoom ins you have done with it. The markings on the ship, the ones you thought represented the trifighters, those others to me look like markings to represent vulture droids :D
“We never see a clone taking out another clone” I guess he’s only talking about the movies? Because of Fives, so many clones with General Krell, and most likely more that I’m not thinking about right now
8:37 It would be disadvantageous for a droid not to feel pain. Pain is a defense mechanism, it warns you when your body is being damaged. A machine would also benefit from some sort of pain mechanism as it would avoid damaging itself further if it is injured.
The tower was probably completely empty, they had enough time to get the fire department to their location so they would have likely had time to evacuate the tower before touchdown.
Can't remember the exact source, but in Legends I'm 99% sure it was explicitly stated that the tower was cleared well before the Invisible Hand took it down.
2:54 That blue Laser was actually from a "Self-Propelled Heavy Artillery". The things that they used to take down the Core ships on Geonosis 4:00 vulture droids do actually hangout on the ships. Often times they hide under the plating of the confederate ships for stealth and protection 7:25 In the Clone Wars cartoon they actually did use the force on buzz droids. i dont remember if it was Anakin or Ahsoka though.
@@MichaelJaeYT no worries! Glad to justify all the time I've spent reading and watching wiki pages, expanded, universe, novels, comics and TV shows. Lol :D
@@MichaelJaeYT do you do battles in the clone wars or only the movies because if only the movies can you do the battle of hoth and for the clone wars can you do the battle on umbara when the clones fight pong krell
19:36 I am going off a theory about how there was probably no one in the tower when the ripped through it. Episode 3 was filmed at the time and we DIDN'T have the animated Clone Wars show. The only thing we had in between Episode 2 and 3 at the time was the 2003 clone wars series. As depicted, before Anakin and Obi-Wan arrived to save the Chancellor, Coruscant had already sustained damage from other parts of the city when the droid army invaded and engaged the Republic forces in space and in the city. I'm going to guess that all tower personnel or non-combative civilians were given the order to seek shelter or abandon everything and proceed to the nearest shelter/bunker for safety.
Saw this in theaters twice with my dad, once at opening. Will never forget standing in line, everyone all dressed up, the cheering when they drop down into the battle. Best memories.
The next battle you should do is another space battle, the one with the trade federation ship over Naboo. The one with Darth Maul not the one where Qui-gon and Obi-Wan first land on Naboo
That laser coming from the bottom of the Jedi cruiser at 2:49, is actually a AT-TE shooting it’s top mounted laser cannon. Cool and interesting fact, I wish you covered that too, but not a whole lot of people know about that small detail. If you look closely when slowing it down, you could kinda see the barrel pointing down, but just barley though, so you have to keep your eyes open.
I want Mando S3 to take the action into the war zone. I mean, it's called Star "Wars", so eventually we might see a modern tech space battle with as much thought put into it as this one had. Ships have to angle their deflector shields, so that means there are areas where the shields are weak that enemy fire can break through... so in theory a battle between two ships is as intricate as a lightsaber battle, even more so due to the fact you have to do it by pressing buttons and pulling levers based on calculations rather than foresight. I love that "pirate ship canon fire" shot, because it's probably a rare occurrence that two ships down each other's shields at the same time and have an all out trade off like that.
I imagine it was hell for the people on planet. Droids and clones fighting in the streets, fighters clashing in the skies, and crippled Republic and Confederate capital ships falling from the skies leveling entire districts.
It depends on how close the ships are to the planet some debris would definitely fall to the planet’s surface and that would be a bigger problem for the People living in the upper levels of Coruscant
"Anakin should've used the force (on the buzz droid) to save Artoo." Anakin: Hell, I ain't no helicopter parent- sink or swim, bitch. Artoo: Swimming it is... We never see a clone hit shoot another clone- OOoooooh, someone hasn't seen the Umbara arc. I think the markings on Obi-Wan's fighter are Tri-Droids (on the top) and Vulture Droid (on the bottom)
2:46 when the blue laser hits the separatist ship a piece of that ship hits back the Venator, that piece of ship is actually a 3d model of a sink according to the audio commentary of the movie.
Did anyone notice when they're sliding down the elevator Obi-wan is to the right (14:11), but after they hook their lines on that be and they go through the door Obi-wan is now on the left (14:15)?
It was actually the first Star Wars movie I've seen in theater. When the Invisible Hand crash landed, it felt like it was gonna run over us. And it's not even 3D.
17:14 I did see this in theaters actually as a kid. IT was an amazing experience. The surround sound ofthe entire theater let us hear all of the sound effects and for most of the scenes, it was quite awesome. After I bought the dvd, I went back and noticed that so many tiny details had sound effects for a large majority of the movie. Pretty fun.

In the lore it's confirmed there are early model star destroyers like the victory class in the battle so maybe there's a victory of screen we don't get to see since imperial ships usually shoot green. Fun fact, don't remember which novel mentions it, but a young Captain Palleon from the Thrawn trilogy actually commanded a victory class in this battle
And who doesn’t love a sexy Venator Class Star Destroyer
I prefer the ships of the cis

@@zqfmgb4335 yes they're mind-blowing

I just found this channel and spent a good chunk of my day watching all these slowed vids. I really love this detail nitpicking. It really gives the movies so much more life
“A droid shot another droid. That’s the first time I’ve ever seen this happen.”
The B1 droids Yoda messed with and the B2 he controlled in the Clone Wars episode “Ambush” would like to say a few words
Or the B2 that shot the B1 during the arena battle in Attack of the Clones.
1:04- I’m really loving these videos and you are pointing out a lot of the stuff I noticed when I first watched these movies and shows but no one I knew saw them! Honestly, I’d love to just have a conversation with you because so far you are definitely the closest to someone like me that I’ve ever seen, met or have ever known!?! And that’s kinda impressive to me!
Fun fact: In Star Wars Legends Lorth "Apology accepted Captain" Needa was leading a pack of Legends-EU starships from the old RPG books that was juuuust offscreen above the Invisible Hand keeping it pinned and telling him they'd shoot him to pieces if he couldn't get Palpatine on holo in ten minutes. And he DID help shoot it apart, so really Vader choking him was revenge for forcing him to land Half a Ship.

@@MichaelJaeYT His lines in the conversation with Greivous are great. Especially if you know how relatively small his Carracks are
This was actually made canon in a magazine
The ships have also been made canon
@@josesanchezrodriguez1783 I think yeah the Tarkin novel had a bunch of old ships (From being mostly a leftover Legends story) Did the Needa dialogue end up in newcanon too? Interesting.
Seeing Anakin and kenobi flying in perfect unison showing their connection to the force as master and apprentice was always my favorite scene from the prequels..its a shame that the next few scenes on the cruiser was so rushed.
The other markings below the Tri-Fighters on Obis ship looks like deployed vulture droids to me...
I think capitals seems more likely. Or possibly entire wings of Vultures.
Or maybe battles fought?
Same
I thought it too, they look like they are flying upwards, but i'm not too sure, also, given that vulture droids where bastly more common is weird that he took down only 7 vultures and +20 tri fighters
@@DIEGhostfish could they just be a form of tallies
19:27, considering the massive ground attack that had just happened, I doubt any of the spaceport employees decided to go into work that day
2:56 the lasers are actually from SPHA's (the walkers you see in AotC shooting down a Core Ship) but don't worry i also thought the same thing when i was younger :)
Isn’t it an ion cannon? Like on Kamino Starfighter Assault?
@@Commander_Appo No, ion cannons in Star Wars are emp weapons only, the shut down electronics without much actual damage (the jawa blunderbust that sorted out R2 in A New Hope is an example of an ion weapon).
Now in real life ion weapons are scary AF. The can penetrate armor better then even HEAT rounds and the energy of the beam is deposited deep inside the target causing it to blow up from the inside. That and they also dose the area with deadly, deadly radiation is an added bonus. They're still a long way off as a practical weapon since they're more complicated to make then normal particle beam weapons (which are almost worthless on the surface since they're attracted to magnetic fields giving them horrible accuracy, the whip around like the Ghostbusters proton beams, and are rapidly absorbed by the air giving them crap range) and do to less work being done on them so far lag behind lasers in efficiency (I think modern prototypes are in the 8% efficient range which means you need 12.5 megawatts of power for ever megajoule of output) making powering them a problem plus the whole radiation thing will probably limit them to space in the end anyways.
@@TheRyujinLP i thought the one on Kamino Starfighter assault was called an ion cannon. Do you know what it’s called then?
@@Commander_Appo I haven't played battlefront so I'm going to take it there was a SPHA on that map. In that case the map might of had the I variant which used a massive Ion cannon. The default version (later known as the T variant) housed a turbo laser (though it acted more like a super laser).
@@TheRyujinLP it’s just called the “Venator Beam Weapon” apparently
My favorite part of the scene is always when they get out of their fighters and are clearing the hangar. Their lightsaber movements are SO SMOOTH it's so freaking sick I always rewind it like 5 times on that part
In Clone Wars season 5 Anakin force pushes droids off his ship so they can.
Weren't they in atmosphere though? Does force push work in a vacum?
@@I3oo1ve yeah.
Wait what episode I forgot?
@@MichaelJaeYT Season 5, Episode 17, Sabotage.
True
Besides General Grievous, this space battle is one of the biggest highlights for me with this movie. and I love the slow downs and zoom ins you have done with it.
The markings on the ship, the ones you thought represented the trifighters, those others to me look like markings to represent vulture droids :D
“We never see a clone taking out another clone”
I guess he’s only talking about the movies? Because of Fives, so many clones with General Krell, and most likely more that I’m not thinking about right now
8:37 It would be disadvantageous for a droid not to feel pain. Pain is a defense mechanism, it warns you when your body is being damaged. A machine would also benefit from some sort of pain mechanism as it would avoid damaging itself further if it is injured.
They do I think
It's amazing how many details are there, better than marvel
"Shoot other ships until their shields are down."
Empire at War players who know there are missiles...
The tower was probably completely empty, they had enough time to get the fire department to their location so they would have likely had time to evacuate the tower before touchdown.
Can't remember the exact source, but in Legends I'm 99% sure it was explicitly stated that the tower was cleared well before the Invisible Hand took it down.
Great vid dude, i especially liked the part where R2 trips the battle droid cause i had never noticed that before and it was a funny little detail
11:13 I think those marks are vulture droids since they have there little head that pokes out and like the slender triangle wing
Oh I didn’t even think about that
This video, 10% unique commentary
90% Woah, that's so cool!
Seriously tho great watch, definitely want a film with all the cut parts
Yellow battle droid: commander
Blue: pilot
Red: Security
No color: basic soldier
Green is tank ppls
@@averagegamer-mx1ofgreen is actually swamp/camo
@mreggs3731 that's a different green
Great keep making these and the second markings can be venetors I think?
Can you make battle of Scarif or battle of endor.
2:54
That blue Laser was actually from a "Self-Propelled Heavy Artillery".
The things that they used to take down the Core ships on Geonosis
4:00
vulture droids do actually hangout on the ships. Often times they hide under the plating of the confederate ships for stealth and protection
7:25
In the Clone Wars cartoon they actually did use the force on buzz droids.
i dont remember if it was Anakin or Ahsoka though.
Thats so cool ty I didnt know that, and I cant believe I forgot he did that in tcw! Someone just sent me the ep
@@MichaelJaeYT no worries! Glad to justify all the time I've spent reading and watching wiki pages, expanded, universe, novels, comics and TV shows. Lol
:D
Thanks for the video! There was just so much that I haven't seen even though I've watched this movie so many times.
TECHNICALLY IT'S A TRI-FIGHTER NOT A TRI-DROID
Yes tri droids are the giant three legged droid with the giant dome for a head
IT SEEMS IF IT HAS THE WORD ( TRI ) IN IT HE DOESN'T GET IT RIGHT LOL
When did I say it? 😭 I literally cut out the part where I corrected myself
MICHAEL YOU SAID IT MOBILE TIMES 😕
@@DANIELGALLION I think your caps lock is on
"Another happy landing", said Obi-Wan. I saw this movie in theaters, and it was epic!
What about the droid attack on the wookies?
👁 👄 👁
@@MichaelJaeYT do you do battles in the clone wars or only the movies because if only the movies can you do the battle of hoth and for the clone wars can you do the battle on umbara when the clones fight pong krell
19:36 I am going off a theory about how there was probably no one in the tower when the ripped through it. Episode 3 was filmed at the time and we DIDN'T have the animated Clone Wars show. The only thing we had in between Episode 2 and 3 at the time was the 2003 clone wars series. As depicted, before Anakin and Obi-Wan arrived to save the Chancellor, Coruscant had already sustained damage from other parts of the city when the droid army invaded and engaged the Republic forces in space and in the city. I'm going to guess that all tower personnel or non-combative civilians were given the order to seek shelter or abandon everything and proceed to the nearest shelter/bunker for safety.
This is where the fun begins
🤪
I want a gif of r2 tripping that droid. That may be the funniest thing I've seen in this movie 😂
Suggestion: you should watch jabbas palace/ pit of carkon scenes in 0.25x speed
Ohhh Good idea I don’t think anyone’s mentioned this before
Get ready for some continuity errors at Carkoon.
Red droids is security battledroids. Standard soldiers are the battle droids without any extra paint.
The best opening scene
Chills every time
Hey Thanks for putting subtitles, I'm from Argentina and I don't understand English very well but I still really enjoy your videos, greetings

Saw this in theaters twice with my dad, once at opening. Will never forget standing in line, everyone all dressed up, the cheering when they drop down into the battle. Best memories.
14:47 the red droids are actualy security droids
The Animation and all that is just so amazing! This is clearly the best space battle of Star Wars
Blue battle droid: Pilot
Red battle droid: Security
Yellow battle droid: Commander
Fun fact: the “Death Star laser” at 3:00 is actually the artillery vehicles from the second movie, strapped into the hangar bays of the capitol ships
The next battle you should do is another space battle, the one with the trade federation ship over Naboo. The one with Darth Maul not the one where Qui-gon and Obi-Wan first land on Naboo
Ooh that’s a good idea for the next space battle
If you didn’t know this at 2:49
That debris chunk that smacks into the venator, Was confirmed by the VFX artists to be an kitchen sink
I just noticed at 17:45 is that a set worker behind the droid? #OriginalJeansGuy
That laser coming from the bottom of the Jedi cruiser at 2:49, is actually a AT-TE shooting it’s top mounted laser cannon. Cool and interesting fact, I wish you covered that too, but not a whole lot of people know about that small detail.
If you look closely when slowing it down, you could kinda see the barrel pointing down, but just barley though, so you have to keep your eyes open.
ayo %2? get this man to 300k and atleast %40 he deserves it
I still think it’s cool that at 2:51, that’s a toilet being launched at the Venetor. You can see that in the special features of episode 3
I want Mando S3 to take the action into the war zone. I mean, it's called Star "Wars", so eventually we might see a modern tech space battle with as much thought put into it as this one had.
Ships have to angle their deflector shields, so that means there are areas where the shields are weak that enemy fire can break through... so in theory a battle between two ships is as intricate as a lightsaber battle, even more so due to the fact you have to do it by pressing buttons and pulling levers based on calculations rather than foresight.
I love that "pirate ship canon fire" shot, because it's probably a rare occurrence that two ships down each other's shields at the same time and have an all out trade off like that.
Not to mention managing power and armamaments and coordinating with other ships.
I hope we get to see more detailed space battles in Star Wars shows.
It’s crazy how this is just the end of the battle and how in the middle of the battle there were thousands of capital ships on each side
what i don’t understand is that when the ship crashes the debris fall on corosant ur just chilling and then there is a debris that falls on u!
Ohh that would suck
I imagine it was hell for the people on planet. Droids and clones fighting in the streets, fighters clashing in the skies, and crippled Republic and Confederate capital ships falling from the skies leveling entire districts.
It depends on how close the ships are to the planet some debris would definitely fall to the planet’s surface and that would be a bigger problem for the People living in the upper levels of Coruscant
This movie is so breathtaking that it's as if you can be piloting along with the characters fighting a massive battle, both personal and external.
I think the other kill marks on Obi-wan's ship are Vulcher Droid wings.
"Anakin should've used the force (on the buzz droid) to save Artoo."
Anakin: Hell, I ain't no helicopter parent- sink or swim, bitch.
Artoo: Swimming it is...
We never see a clone hit shoot another clone- OOoooooh, someone hasn't seen the Umbara arc.
I think the markings on Obi-Wan's fighter are Tri-Droids (on the top) and Vulture Droid (on the bottom)
No, those aren’t clones flying the fire-fighting ship.
Well in Legends clones could join it's ranks, but it was mostly humans and maybe a few species like Chiss or Pantorans.
No wonder Anakin said this where the fun begins and he’s right about that.
can you do the battle of the endor,plssss🙏
2:46 when the blue laser hits the separatist ship a piece of that ship hits back the Venator, that piece of ship is actually a 3d model of a sink according to the audio commentary of the movie.
Now knowing more attention to detail was put into ROTS and along with the intro theme makes the movie so much better than the rest of the series
My dad took me to the midnight premier at the local theater. The opening gives me fond memories of simpler times.
Did anyone notice when they're sliding down the elevator Obi-wan is to the right (14:11), but after they hook their lines on that be and they go through the door Obi-wan is now on the left (14:15)?
Imagine being in the Star Wars world and Seeing a clone body just flying by you
Did anyone realize that at 7:32 the buzz droid rolled off like there was air resistance
The Orange b1 droids are commanders. The blues are pilots. Reds are sentry droids. The colourless ones are the classic soldier ones.
It was actually the first Star Wars movie I've seen in theater. When the Invisible Hand crash landed, it felt like it was gonna run over us. And it's not even 3D.
17:14 I did see this in theaters actually as a kid. IT was an amazing experience. The surround sound ofthe entire theater let us hear all of the sound effects and for most of the scenes, it was quite awesome.
After I bought the dvd, I went back and noticed that so many tiny details had sound effects for a large majority of the movie. Pretty fun.
I love your commentary in your vidoes. Always makes me laugh lol
Woah! I remeber this scene being impressive, but I had no Idea they went THIS far! Very well made video!
