Im gonna talk about something other than the absolutely amazing choreography and acting. How the character of Triarch Wind was told through the story was amazing. In the beginning, he's simply a proper, ruthless Sith Lord snuffing out a small mutiny. But as the video goes on, we see Triarch tell Atlas that betrayal doesn't work out for everyone, insinuating that he himself has betrayed his comrades before. And we see him respect Atlas by placing his fist, which is clenching his badge, against his heart. Amazing work.
@@chriskibodeaux9818 yeah, really. did we watch the same video? what did you think was bad about it? for a bunch of teenagers having fun with lightsabers, i was able to get a lot of joy from it.
This is a great Star Wars short fanmade film; the actor who pertrayed Triarch is a really good actor & hopefully their will be much more films; I subbed & really enjoyed the film
I *LOVE* the energy here! Lots of evil people going at it over a power struggle, that's good stuff. The characters are established very well in a short amount of time, and you can immediately tell who's got the upper hand. Keep up the good work, team! You don't often see someone straight up rockin' the cape, but your guy totally pulls it off.
You know this was low budget no doubt. But this was really good! The acting was good the saber fighting was well choreographed. Imagine if they had a bigger budget. The effects aren't bad as well. And they explained everyone's position in authority in good amount of time. This was good story telling.
The guy who plays Atlas seems to have put everything he could into the role. The main character is also an excellent actor. The dualing all seems to be well choreographed as well. Excellent viewing material on May the 4th :)
I gotta admit, I was surprised by this one. I had originally thought (within the first minute or two) that this would work better as a fan film than as a LCC entry, but as it went on the action really amped up and the choreography really improved.
Honestly, Triarch was toying with Atlas. There were multiple instances Triarch disarmed Atlas, and choose to let him get back up. He was arrogant and sure of his power. A perfect Sith.
@@justincummings8557 Triarch has red lightning (which is the strongest form of force lightning), something even Palpatine didn't. I think Dooku might be better in terms of lightsaber combat but in terms of force powers Triarch can just zap Dooku out of commission
@@mist0804 1: where did you get that there were stronger variations of Force Lightning? I’ve never heard that before. 2: the fact that Dooku held his own against Yoda for a time holds quite a bit of weight, as this is the same frog who has studied every lightsaber form with the exception of Vaapad. In my opinion, though, Dooku’s best feat was his fight against Mace Windu in the comics. The fact that he held out against some of the greatest duelists of the era is very impressive. 3: Dooku could easily deflect lightning, as it has been seen that his vast knowledge of his chosen form, Makashi, allows him to compensate for his weaknesses. 4: I always thought Triarch’s feat there was a more of a form of Teutaminus, a Force power enabling the user to absorb energy. This includes blaster bolts, both real and Force lightning, and even lightsaber blade.
0k the lead actor is amazing everything about him fits the idea of sith lord voice mannerisms just wow. Rather weak fighting to slow paced for my tastes but the lead caused me to stick around and see what he did
I was totally hoping the apprentice would turn around and (quite literally) stab Triarch in the back. With some kind of monologue that included "The thing about betrayal is that when done right, the victim always falls" or something to that effect. Would've brought this already impressive display to a new level. Great work regardless
I mean usually betrayals actually work so it was kinda nice seeing that a betrayal ultimately failed and only cost the betrayed some warriors to handle things for him

Hum... My Review... Acting: 8/10 - For the most part, I was fine with the acting. My only annoyance (though I got through it) was the dialogue. Some of the characters felt like they were trying too hard or were just not in character fully. A particular bit that just rubbed me off the wrong way was the girls talking. Cartography: 9/10 - No real complaints here. I think the only gripe I have is the girl using the dual saber was not really using it to its potential/style. Of course, I can't expect everyone to put any study into lightsaber combat, but for this particular weapon, I do suggest it in the future. Otherwise, loved the show. Story: 2/10 - This hit me the hardest as being the most depressing aspect of the film. I get there are possibly length limits and so forth but with so little context to what was happening, I really had no idea what was going on beyond "Cool Lightsaber Fight". The foundation is set well for there to be a narrative, but it just did not have enough context to keep me invested in anyone. Overall: 6/10 - Promising, definatly promising. I will check out the channel for additional films to drop reviews on. Hope this is helpful to some extent.
Good job, guys! You should really be making movies with your work. Loved the plot and the saber choreography with a small hint of martial arts grappling at the end. Very creative! Please keep up the good work, I look forward to seeing more! (You earned yourselves a subscriber!) 5 Stars!
Who and why has someone given thumbs down , good choreography and some good moves in there especially when he disarms him at the end for the final kill
*BIG WOOF* this was good! The acting was great and so were the costumes! The duels- especially from Triarch- were intense! And had me feeling like this guy was a true to life Sith Lord~ Now I must add that the effects are a bit lacking- not bad! But I don’t believe these sabers, they’re too dark and don’t come across as real sabers to me- are they good? Of course, but are they good enough? Sadly no. I give this a big ol’ 8 out of 10, I freakin’ loved it
This kind of thing is why Darth Bane conceived the rule of two. The sith draw their power from conflict and passion but unless those things are directed to a purpose or to fight an enemy, the sith become their own worst enemy. Kreia said it best: "To be united by hatred is a fragile alliance at best" The sith were never more powerful than during the rule of two era when only two sith ruled, one to embody power, the other to crave it.
This was really good! I was surprised at how well they all acted because I can never seem to get anyone to act well lol. The choreography was really good too. Nice job
OKay, I admit, the acting was little cheesy at times, but the choreography was so fast, so engergetic, and just badass ,that I didn't really mind it in the end. Nice work!
So this is what Sith High School is like, the student council President is summoned by the Vice President, he brings his girlfriend along, and the Vice President and the other members of the council try to kill him, lol
I love how Treyarch over here has this cocky, in control, personality. It reminds me of Count Dooku and Palpatine, who both projected auras of confidence.
The cheography is better than the *sequels* itself!, I am not kidding, it's just not aiming to attack the lightsabers instead of the person like most of Disney's battles are.
Really the only bad thing i have to say is that the lightsabers clip in certain scenes and that the sound is a bit off in some areas but that can easily be fixed, otherwise I was thoroughly entertained. Keep it up 👍
i dig the characters and the main guy just cuz hes a smug little prick...i love it the duels seem realistic with a few slip ups but still really good
J’y hbi
The main villain has that "in control" snark to him. It's a Vincent Price-esque vibe I am liking! Great short flick!

@@grape.juice. the entire thing!
@@chriskibodeaux9818It’s a bunch of kids who don’t have a $50 million budget and are not trained actors…and they did a decent job considering.
"Miss Venom has requested my presence."
"Did she say why?"
"I dunno..."
This makes me laugh hard. X)
The main guy is actually a pretty decent actor
Thought he was the worst
IKR
yes correct
He's a real talent that Richard Rodenberg.
...and reminds me of Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory
The best fan film I've ever seen. The guys did well - they played naturally =)
This is a great Star Wars short fanmade film; the actor who pertrayed Triarch is a really good actor & hopefully their will be much more films; I subbed & really enjoyed the film
Lightsaber fight: 8/10
Acting: 1567/10
Skyhijinx always did that same jump dodge in the fights
acting 00000000/10
sorry what I do cooler shit in the shower
Ya because this acting deserves a Oscar award
@@oscar9039for sure its better than disney star wars

You don't often see someone straight up rockin' the cape, but your guy totally pulls it off.
HEY! I wear Capes great!
Anakin Skywalker are you sure about that
The elbow counter moves in here are very well, and convincingly, pulled off.
Looked like a showdown on the Slytherin facultie with the lightsabers. At least, one of the protagonists looked like Draco Malfoe. Great job, BTW.
I thought he looked more like Oliver Wood in my opinion.
Lol, that would mean Triarch is Darth Malfoy.
@@beckykatano3093
Basically what Malfoy actually wanted to be.
@@anton.chigrinetc.96 Lol. Yeah.
You know this was low budget no doubt. But this was really good! The acting was good the saber fighting was well choreographed. Imagine if they had a bigger budget. The effects aren't bad as well.

Definitely worth a huge gold star 🌟

Rewatching this years later and this series still has a special place in my hart
Alright Triarch. I want my cape back.
LMAO
Count Dooku ah but little did you know- your cape is *BROWN*
Count Dooku this is not your moment come back later...
Count Dooku it’s been a long time
You know Anakin sucks guys sad the emperor wants him to kill you dooku
The main villain gives off major Dooku vibes. So cool!
I gotta admit, I was surprised by this one. I had originally thought (within the first minute or two) that this would work better as a fan film than as a LCC entry, but as it went on the action really amped up and the choreography really improved.
I still come back to this every little while during my yearly Fan Made Lightsaber Duel phase.
The graphics definitely need work, but I genuinely think that the choreography was amazing!
The lightsaber effects were great.
And this was made in 2015 so the graphics aren't gonna be as good as they are today
Now you guys should send other thing other chat thingy
Its still good enough
And by enough I mean amazing
You guys should really make more star wars videos. Triarch Wind is a legend!
Honestly, Triarch was toying with Atlas. There were multiple instances Triarch disarmed Atlas, and choose to let him get back up. He was arrogant and sure of his power. A perfect Sith.
I think Triarch could give Count Dooku a run for his money.

This is so goooood better than anything the sequels gave us
I like how he keeps sparing atlas, he truly felt that he could stop
Now
5:55 That was smooth
This was fantastic. Nice work guys. A film with the obsession of what Star Wars has always been about.
I remembered this while I was showering and god do i love tryarks story. You guys will excel and go places with this
The guy who died at the end was such a good actor!
You mean atlas?
doodoo face Perkins whatever
The choreography was amazing! I definitely love seeing Sith based fan films!
Beautifully done! Choreography was spot on.

love the costumes guys... and I know the pain of frame by frame for the sabers... Overall.. Excellent work guys
Ahhhhh..... The ‘after you’, ‘no after you’ one at a time strategy of attack....
Ending with SUPERPUNCHHHHHHH!!!
Entertaining thou 👍
Also triarch’s apprentice is similar to zannah
Who and why has someone given thumbs down , good choreography and some good moves in there especially when he disarms him at the end for the final kill
Awesome Film
awesome i could imagine vader standing and watching the conflict
3:29 when I look at my phone at night
Such a waste!
*BIG WOOF* this was good! The acting was great and so were the costumes!
The duels- especially from Triarch- were intense! And had me feeling like this guy was a true to life Sith Lord~
Now I must add that the effects are a bit lacking- not bad! But I don’t believe these sabers, they’re too dark and don’t come across as real sabers to me- are they good? Of course, but are they good enough? Sadly no.
I give this a big ol’ 8 out of 10, I freakin’ loved it
I subscribed. You guys have absolutely great potential.
This is my favorite duel on the entirety of youtube.
Good, Use your aggressive nature boy, Let the Hate Flow through you!!!
Thats one of my 500000000000000000000001 lines!
Their can only be two
This is among my top five favorite star wars fan films in terms of dialogue and choreography
I can’t believe it’s been 7 years…
This was really great I enjoyed it good actors and good quality
that main guy got the sass and the class
Triarc wind is sort of in a way like count dooku, they both keep there cool under tremendous amount of pressure in a fight.
Parents: aww look at those kids playing with sticks
Kids imagination:
@Memes productions what it's kids it been kids
@Memes productions I had to fix sticks I put stiks
This is really impressive like how the master catches the purple force lightning and sends it back as red lightning
I liked this. It reminds me a lot of The Prequels. I mean that as a compliment. It’s both legitimately good and good in a corny way.
A Sith lord's betrayal, nicely done.
This kind of thing is why Darth Bane conceived the rule of two. The sith draw their power from conflict and passion but unless those things are directed to a purpose or to fight an enemy, the sith become their own worst enemy. Kreia said it best:
"To be united by hatred is a fragile alliance at best"
The sith were never more powerful than during the rule of two era when only two sith ruled, one to embody power, the other to crave it.
I like the master acting its so cool imagine if him and Obi-wan
Wonderful Video! We’re Family now!
This was really good! I was surprised at how well they all acted because I can never seem to get anyone to act well lol. The choreography was really good too. Nice job
Great story, great acting, all on top of great choreography! Would love to see some backstory
If we are being honest this is the coolest star wars fan film ever
This is pretty amazing! I love the choreography!
OKay, I admit, the acting was little cheesy at times, but the choreography was so fast, so engergetic, and just badass ,that I didn't really mind it in the end. Nice work!
HE DIDN'T GRAB THE LIGHTSABER AT THE END! a random hiker could just be walking around and find it and become SUPER powerful with the right training
Now this is awesome!
Can we talk about how smooth the disaarm was...
The action is pretty good, the acting is great (enough to get me invested), it's very entertaining. Great job. You have a lot of potential.
I can say for 2015 only a few made it in my book. y'all are one of them great job on the story
At 1:44 you can see the red lightsaber blades already there just not fully there on the double bladed saber
you guys did great! next time maybe I'll do your guys effects. Richard rodenberg, hannah hamel, bailey waldie all great actors!
1:44 they didn’t even bother editing out the props for the blade 😂
So this is what Sith High School is like, the student council President is summoned by the Vice President, he brings his girlfriend along, and the Vice President and the other members of the council try to kill him, lol
Media Detective This is actually my favorite explanation of the story, could not have put it better myself.
Out Of Focus Productions oh wow, thanks, you made a pretty great video btw
Nobody’s gonna talk about how 4:18 was so clean?
¿Que era un duelo entre siths o no tenian mas colores?
Dude with the Cape is a bad bad man. Bro can throw down!
The main dude's voice is starting to sound and talk like an actual Sith Lord Master 🔥
Back when we would have hoped Disney didn’t screw us
How are they not in movie’s🤯🤯
When does the full length movie come out? Should pass at least $1 Billion, especially when compared the Star Wars today (Disney).
This is probably about count duku when he was like 13.
He also sounds like Toby McGuire
Seen this twentyish times, still get the chills
That moment 12 year olds. choreograph better lightsaber combat than the sequels...
This has to be one of the best fan films ever.
There is one thing almost all light Saber duels have :no knock back
Darth sidious," one rule of the sith, there can only be two,"
No more no less a master and a apprentice
I love how Treyarch over here has this cocky, in control, personality. It reminds me of Count Dooku and Palpatine, who both projected auras of confidence.
Really well choreographed!!
Only friends can truly betray you
artistically done
Wow this is one of the best fan films
Very fun! Making anything is an accomplishment. Mentioning this in my upcoming Forces of Geek article.
Amazing
The cheography is better than the *sequels* itself!,
I am not kidding, it's just not aiming to attack the lightsabers instead of the person like most of Disney's battles are.
epic. but slight problem with the double sided light-saber (Glowing before it was turned on.)
So it’s two sith versus two sith? Also, this video was amazing!
Really the only bad thing i have to say is that the lightsabers clip in certain scenes and that the sound is a bit off in some areas but that can easily be fixed, otherwise I was thoroughly entertained. Keep it up 👍
Top-notch choreography
I'm betting that Triarch was actually sad to have to kill Atlas.
If you realy are the Best why obiwan cut you in two
I know why he sad cos he liked toying with atlas and was sad to see his toy die
Cool but where did all of the dead bodies go?
