FULL LENGTH REACTION IS AVAIL ON PATREON AT SECOND TIER .. www.patreon.com/MRLBOYD
Ya know the Jedi Order in the prequels when it comes to attachments. It's both good and bad. The Jedi aren't functioning the way they should in these films. They're following the will of the Republic instead of the will of the Force. They lost their way. On the other hand the whole attachment is forbidden thing is somewhat justified cause you see Anakin commit atrocities beecause he fears losing his wife.
The reason Grievous (the cyborg) uses green and blue lightsabers, is that they were taken from Jedi he has killed in the past. He takes their lightsabers as trophies.
I'd like this but it's at order 66 likes
Exactly. Grievous even says as much to Kenobi, "Your lightsaber will make a worthy addition to my collection."
Oh, and why Grievous coughed? Lucas has the voice actor recording Grievous' dialogue and Lucas was coughing that day. Lucas thought it would be funny to put that in there.
There was a traditionally animated cartoon version of the Clone Wars that explained it that while the Chancellor was being kidnapped, Mace Windu (Samuel L Jackson) choked Grievous using the Force (as Vader would do in other films) and damaged Grievous' wind pipes.
@@RickSFfan Never seen the cartoons except the ewok ones from the 80s. I thought grievious was coughing from a computer virus.
Plus the fact that he was trained by Dooku.
Grievous was originally Qymaen jai Sheelal, an organic reptilian humanoid native from the planet Kalee, and only later got transformed to the robot hybrid version we see in this film.
Yoda : "love for your family can lead you to do evil things to protect them, you must learn to accept loss or willingly give up attatchment before temptation hits."
Mrlboyd : "you want me to stop loving my family? Ill kill you, ill kill you all."
Yoda: "See what i mean?"
lol - THIS! 1000 times this!
This is the way!
Man, whoever is setting up your viewing order has done you dirty.
"Use the force" "Why don't they use the force" "Guys the luck these guys have are astronomical"
my guy, their luck IS THE FORCE.
Dude, you're proving Yoda's point. You would do ANYTHING to protect your family, even something that's wrong. Without family ties,, you are free to follow the ways of the force.
was looking for this comment... he's a family man, so he cant see him self, in any other way... but if u never knew, u were taken, u are gonna pour everything, into the Jedi way of life
The fact so many people see that as a GOOD point in these comments is terrifying.
@@ablasttv why?
@@ablasttv It's good for a small fraction of the population who want to be a Jedi.. They aren't campaigning for everyone in the universe to ditch their families or something. Lol
MRSITHLORDBOYD
You never should've skipped any of the movies. Most of your questions would have been answered.
The Jedi aren’t saying put yourself first. They avoid attachments in general. Almost like futuristic monks or something. They don’t want to be a slave to emotions bc negative emotions lead them down the seductive path of the dark side. That’s all part of story lore
The sad part of things is that in their quest to stay in the light they have brought imbalance. Aligning with a government when they are supposed to serve "the Force" . Becoming soldiers and interfering in political affairs. Also willingly ignoring their own faults. The Jedi were corrupted and their arrogance brought the end to the Jedi order.
Which is incorrect. There stupid attachment rule which is not a part of the Jedi Code was a direct cause of Dooku, Revan and Anakin turning to the dark side.
@@mustafashaqur9694 people forget anakin isn't the first time a jedi has "fallen" to the dark side
The fact that R2D2 never had his memory wiped once throughout the whole saga and is the only surviving character that experienced it from start to finish is both cool and sad.
R2D2 also has hidden hard drives and several other illegal features
And a serious ability to not communicate things.
Star wars is the chronicles of R2
I'ma be honest, star wars has been out of my mind for so long I read it wrong and thought you were talking about RDR2
Hold up. Star Wars is starting to wear on you (9 official films, 2 side) but you’re perfectly fine with Star Trek series?
the way you think about not turning against your family is EXACTLY what Yoda meant by not having attachments .It clouds your judgement as a Jedi .
Exactly, it’s hard to strive to be unbiased as a peacekeeper when at anytime your family could be on one of the sides causing you to lean more towards them.
That it does, Yoda was so attached to the jedi order he didn't prepare himself to let go of them, he decided to hail mary the last two jedi against the sith as revenge for losing the jedi
It wasnt until he came to his senses that he realised his entire way of teaching has been flawed. "Failed I have", Yoda isnt referencing the fight when this was said
You gotta remember Yoda is a 900 year old being, he's known who knows how many generations of Jedi, seen them as babies, and watched them die of old age. Again. And again. Attachment for someone like him would be more of a burden than anything else because his life would be a constant state of grief
Well then Yoda isn’t the person to talk to because he has lived too long compared to everyone else.
@@jmwilliamsart Plus he created the no-attachment rule, lol.
Whoever told you to skip Episode I should be arrested. Because it is a crime to screw up someone’s first time watching Star Wars like that. Machete order is dumb and always has been. I implore you to watch Episode I and maybe sometime later, watch the movies in release order. The sequels can be ignored because George Lucas wasn’t involved and it butchered his story and he has disassociated from the new films. But skipping any of George’s 6 movies should not be an option.
That's why we all told you to watch it in release order. The machete order and skipping part 1, was a booboo.
Machete order and keeping 1 is the ultimate viewing order, I see no reason in skipping any of the 6 movies
Idk what he’s seen so I don’t want to spoil but some questions had me confused like wait…. What movie did you not watch
Again, kinda upset that you did them COMPLETELY out of order.
Order of release is the best order for first time viewers, I don’t know who invented this “machete order” but I genuinely think they did this to troll
“You shouldn’t have even come back to save this man. This man’s trash.” Most accurate assessment of palpatine ever
You ain't just whistling Dixie. Couldn't agree with you more... Especially since they wouldn't have even killed Palpatine. He was Sideous. Dooku would walked up to him.. "Hey Master I thought you said they'd come to rescue you and we'd have a big fight and all." Sideous replies. "Yeah well I thought for sure this would work." "....So what now?" "Gimme a minute I'm working on it............."
Is this guy just gonna never know darth maul and qui gon jinn?
Yep, pointless now honestly
I guessing he will watch after 6 now that he seen his comments
6 1 7 8 9 Rogue one Solo
Hopefully it
1 6 7 8 9
Yoda wasn't saying "care for yourself". Yoda was saying: "Don't get atached to any INDIVIDUAL beign, you should care about ALL beings equally".
Yeah he overthinks everything here
Idk how he missed that. The Jedi are basically Buddhist monks, Anakin isn’t supposed to have a family at all 🤷🏾♀️
@@Kori-T Yes. but at least he now understands why the marriage had to be secret.
A Jedi should not have a family exactly because it will put them in this dilemma. - But as we see in the bond between Obi-Wan and Anakin, the "No attachments" rule is impossible for sentient beings to live up to.
All 4 are using the force to improve movement and protect themselves
@@IshoDominatesLuciferAndGoetia the funny thing here is love os something both sides agree on but sides see love in a negative light jedi seeing at as something that can lead to darker emotions if not handled right where the sith she that connection to someone else as a weakness that can be espoilted
In Episode 1 which you skipped they actually explain why some people have Force powers and some don’t.
Yeah but according to butthurt machete viewers arguing with me in the last reaction it supposedly doesn't matter and is just an unneeded irrelevant filler sidequest and nothing is lost or confusing without watching it lol
@@majinvegeta420 I feel like that's the third time I've read a comment from you using the phrase 'butthurt machete viewers' lol
sounds like they got to you, honestly
@@jakob3044 yes I did in fact say it 3 times it's called copy paste bruh lol :). you should see all the retarded comments and replies from said butthurt machete viewers and you will easily understand why I used/use that phrase. There is no valid reasons or logic in anything they have said to me so far they are obviously all boomers that have only watched and will only ever watch these movies and nothing else star wars it's literally them just clearly being butthurt about jar jar kid anakin and midichlorians all having existed and plenty of other dumbass reasons that don't validate forcing first time viewers to never see the movie especially if you intend to continue star wars past these 5 movies there is far more to the canon star wars story/universe than just these 5 movies we are a full 2 decades past these prequels and for those 2 decades darth maul has been and still is playing an active role in the story/universe and his inevitable appearance/s in the live action Ashoka show later this year should be dope seeing that actor again also clearly I'm the one that got to them honestly because IM STILL getting replies everyday from them even now a full 2 or more weeks later trying and failing to defend it where as my 3 reply comments you read were copy and pasted in a random 20 or less minutes while looking thru the comments section after watching the reaction when it first dropped haha XD. If you wanna consider that as them having got to me then by all means go ahead it's a funny joke/meme comment and made me giggle but it's illogical to actually think that lol XD
@@jakob3044he’s right lmao, whoever recommended he watched it this way ruined it. Skipping movies is absolutely braindead
@@antonyfarfan9695 And that makes them 'butthurt'? You're right, it all makes sense now!
Obi-Wan says in A New Hope many years later, "In my experience there's no such thing as luck."
To help further understanding of what Yoda was saying; he doesn't believe that everyone
should stop caring about loved ones nor does he believe that it is a bad thing.
This is strictly in regards to the Jedi order. The Jedi way is to give all of yourself to the light
side of the force as its servant and to avoid the path to the dark side at all cost. It was Anakin's
attachments that lead him to the dark side. His love for Padme lead him to fear her loss.
You can not be a Jedi and represent the order if you have other attachments. To be a Jedi,
the Force is supposed to be your only attachment.
"The fear of loss is a path to the dark side"
“Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”
- Yoda.
There are many examples in the history of this universe in which jedi had turned to the dark side and
wreaked havoc. The Jedi masters know of these instances and have a moral/ethical obligation to
destroy any member of the order who strays from the path of light. They train them and make them
dangerous so it is supposed to be their job to put them down if they sour, although this isn't always the
case.
You could also add that in Ep. 5, Yoda explains to Luke when he has visions of Leia and Han being tortured in Cloud City that he should not run off to save them, even if it costs them their lives. When Luke questions that (as most would who value life), Yoda explains that instead of grief, you should rejoice that they have become part of the Force and that's it's ok to let go and not become attached. As a Jedi, you have to uphold to the greater good - even if it comes at great personal cost. Which is why they teach at an early age about letting go and not forming romantic attachments.
@@IshoDominatesLuciferAndGoetia The Jedi philosophy is largely based off of Buddhism and Daoism, so that’s why they draw similar conclusions.
I don’t think the Sith were based off of any particular philosophy/worldview, but rather are simply the logical inverse of the Jedi. The closest real world philosophy the Sith come to would be Satanism (the secular branches, not talking about real Devil worshippers). It’s not a 1:1 comparison though, as the Sith acknowledge and believe in the supernatural Force, they just inflict their will onto it to utilize it, instead of synchronizing with it like the Jedi do.
@@WafleEnterprises Well, it's that, but with a fairly Manichiaest twist on things, plus deontologist. So it mixes and matches eastern and western concepts.
This still does not resolve the role of the Dark Side or not, and it's degree of agency, malevolence, or function.
@chris sonofpear1 What Luke ultimately learns is that there is no Light or Dark side to the Force, but that the light or dark was in the person themselves.
There's also the matter that Yoda is a flawed character he's not evil but he's so stuck in his ways he doesn't notice the harm he is causing. That is in many ways the tragedy of the Jedi Order that their fear of the Dark Side caused them to enact policies that ultimately could drive a person to the Dark Side due to impossible to resolve inner conflict.
You can't skip movies and expect to get it. 🤦♂️
According to someone arguing with me on the last reaction you supposedly absolutely can lol
@@majinvegeta420you don’t really need episode 1 or 2 because it doesn’t explain Anakin turn. The clone wars cartoon does.
@@mustafashaqur9694 yes exactly but darth maul is in the clone wars cartoon without episode 1 you dont even know who he or qui gon is lol
@@majinvegeta420 Attack of the clones is pretty important for showing anakin's growth and development
@@mustafashaqur9694 yes you do it’s Vital, what’s the most pivotal experience that flipped Anakins mindset? The close bond and loss of his Mother Shmi in episode 1 and 2, this is what set his gradual turn to the dark side with the consequences of his actions that followed
What Yoda wants to make Anakin understand is that attachment, the one one feels towards a wife or child, is dangerous because the loss of one of them is so painful that it can lead the Jedi to the dark side.
Jedi should feel compassion and care for other people, but never attachment. That's why Jedi are forbidden to marry and have children.
Nauna fodder.....in your eye 😂
Also so they don't put the needs of the people they care about before/above the need of others.
that is why I feel more aligned with the grey jedi than any other alignment
its even worse than that. Simply the FEAR of possibly losing loved ones caused Anakin to go to the dark side.
hitting it and quitting it is a ok though
Totally didn't realize the machete cut ruins Luke and Leia being siblings, yeah this order sucks and whoever suggested it is a clown
Makes no sense to do that on a first viewing. He’s been confused the last 2 episodes because of things the viewer is expected to know already from 6 and 1.
It was made popular by an internet that hated Jar Jar and a child.
What do you mean? It's revealed in episode 3 as it's supposed to if you watch them in order. The machete order changes nothing here
In Episode I you get a better understanding of why Anakin is the way he is. Brash and smart at a young age, but there were concerns over him being too old to start training as a Jedi. He was already having attachments. You say if you had to choose between your family and the Jedi you would choose your family, but the point is if you choose to become a Jedi, you forsake having a family in the first place, that way you don't have to choose.
Since episode one was skipped, he probably didn’t know that Aniken was too old to start training.
@@c-mac9902 Yeah, I hope he goes back to watch it someday...even if it's offline and not as a reaction.
What the hell kind of order has he watched this in? Where he hasn't seen episode one yet and also hasn't seen e6 no wonder he is confused.
Someone suggested he watch the movies in the “Machete” order. It claims to be an easier way to introduce a person to the saga. It goes by neither chronological or release order. It is horsesh*t if you ask me. It leaves too many questions unanswered to understand or enjoy the movies.
@@jamesmarciel5237 The Machete order is only logical for people who have already seen all the movies, it's absolute shite for people who haven't. Release order makes logical sense from a storytelling perspective, because a lot of the intended reveals that happen and character buildup are nullified if you watch some of the prior prequels first. Idk why people don't get this. Just watch release order like literally everyone else has, and how George Lucas did it.
… “If he is Luke’s father, that means that he is Darth Vader!”
Mind like a steel trap, this guy.
How is it, that no one (and I mean NO ONE) figures out that Grievous is a cyborg and therefor partly organic?
That's what the coughing is for!
Given the option to save your family and OF COURSE YOU WOULD! That's why you're not supposed to have a family when you join the jedi and start your training. Ani was a Jedi Knight, he could have opted out and had a wife and kids. They have strict rules about forming attachments because they know you will choose your family. That's why they want the jedi order to be your only family. It's not one or the other, it's one and never the other.
Thank you!
While I love that you're enjoying these I really feel the machete order does a first time through a disservice. I hope you at least go back and watch episode 1 at some point.
And, Yoda didn't know he had a family. He was coming from the point of view of warning him against creating that kind of attachment. Jedi are essentially monks whose order dictates that they must give up having family, etc. in order to serve and care for the greater populace.
Machete cut is terrible for a first time watcher, this series of videos is the perfect evidence
It's also an older idea by now. Something people came up with that really didn't like Episode 1. But I never thought Episode 1 was that bad, but I also was a kid when it came out.
I am not sure what would be the best order for a first time watcher. I assume that my daughter will get introduced to the movies by seeing bits and pieces while me and my husband watch the movies and maybe one day she will join watching a movie marathon. I am actually thinking maybe I can then squeeze in the Clone Wars show, cause that was too childish for me to watch alone.
This is a perfect example of why machete is the better order. His enjoyment for the prequels was greater because he did not know about Leia, nor could he recognize the emperor, or how Vader truly looked under the mask.
I include episode 1 in machete, by the way so ignore the fact that some people want to exclude it.
@@DaleKingProfile I've found first time viewers enjoy star wars more when they watch chronologically. Machete makes literally no sense but I don't agree with release order either. There is a reason they have numbers.
@@DaleKingProfile um, no. This viewing order destroys the surprise of Leia. It's utter nonsense. Mr. Boyd's impatience has ruined Star Wars for him. The viewer is supposed to have questions, but to let go and just trust the story. I swear, Mr. B would get sidetracked by wondering if the bolts on an X-Wing are Standard or Metric. This order panders to his impatience and spoils the saga because of it.
@@JD-bp4hq The trouble with chronological is that #1 is so bad that they are too likely to just quit after #1. There is a local radio personality that I know of that did just that.
"How did Yoda not see this coming?"
Palpatine has a dark force power that prevents all Jedi from using clairvoyance.
Dude!!! It’s kind of amazing how you only hear half of what is being said. Almost every question you ask has already been told to you.
Unless you watch it all out of order. Then it's natural to be confused and lost like this poor dude. 😅
This has got to be one of the worst orders I've seen someone watch these movies in 😂
Whoever suggested watching them like this did you a great disservice dawg
right bro, i watched first two reactions then saw he did attack of the clones???? I havent wanted to watch his newer reactions just because i know he completely fucked up his own viewing experience lol. Only clicked on the video to read like minded comments lol.
Couldn't agree more. Watching an intelligent and usually perceptive reactor so utterly fail to understand critical plot points or develop any sense of connection with the characters was just awful. In addition to the painful watch-along, I actually feel terrible that he's lost something kind of important... as with many things in life, you only get one chance to see Star Wars for the first time, and he's lost that. To be honest, he's basically in the same place he was before he started this series... he still hasn't truly seen Star Wars. And sadly... now, he never will.
@@jeffkovacs6521 hey it can be sad but not all hope is completely lost haha. For me have i watched star wars for the first time as a child,, i didnt understand the full picture and what was actually being told through the movies, but growing up and going back to the movies, and then understanding the story better, theres still magic to that even knowing who lukes real father is and the conclusion. Also the clone wars itself is an experience worthy of its own trilogy, that show will turn any casual star wars fan to a diehard by the end. So theres still hope lol he really should come back with an open mind again, and maybe watch all star wars media in chronological order for a new experience
I disagree, there are some good reasons to watch the machete order. It makes the story more coherent, ties "callbacks" in the prequels into RotJ, and adds impact to several things characters say. And, best of all, it removes Ep 1, which is basically useless outside of establishing Anakin's role in the prophecy.
Is it the order I'd recommend? Not usually, as many folks would feel severely jarred by the changes in technology and style. But for someone interested primarily in following the Anakin plot arc, this is the way.
@Umaiar ep 1 sets up so much for the rest of the story for the prequels. It brings in the chosen one, the start of the relationship between anakin and padme, qui-gon and everything that comes with him, why anakin is so powerful, the rule of two, it even adds in lore and world building details like courasant and naboo. Ep 1 has way more in it than some people think, and is important to the story of star wars like every movie is
Actually you missed episode 6 too. To be honest you should have watched 4,5,6,1,2,3
Absolutely...100%
I don't think there's anything canon to back up my theory on this, but I've always thought that it was actually Darth Sidious (the Emperor) who killed Padme. The medical droids said that they were losing her, and they can't explain it, they assume she'd simply lost her will to live, but her dying words are not the words of someone who lost their will to live due to a broken heart as the droids said, her dying words which she doesn't complete were, "there's still good in him."
Earlier Darth Sidious told Anakin about an ability some Sith have to save those they care about from dying, mind you this is a Dark Side ability, so what I think really happened with Padme is Darth Sidious used that Dark Side ability, but being that it's a Dark Side ability it requires the life energy from someone else, to preserve the life of the intended person, so I think Darth Sidious was draining Padme's life to keep Darth Vader alive after his fight with Obi Wan.
1:54 he's hes not a machine, he was a fully organic being before he was in an accident involving a ship crashing (sabotaged by Dooku, made to believe it was done by the republic/jedi) and they managed to save him by making him a cyborg with all the machine parts in what is essentially the prototype blueprint for what would eventually be done with vader.
It was revealed in ROTJ that Luke and Leia were twins. Made it worse that when Leia was told about her real family her response was "I know somehow I have always known"
The reason why Anakin was able to be turned to "evil" is because of his fear of losing Padme.
He lost his mother, to whom he was too attached, and didn't want the same thing to happen to her. So Yoda's warned was if he did not lose that attachment, he could end up going down the path of the darkside.
Palpatine used that knowledge to turn Anakin. He lied to Anakin about being able to save Padme from dying and being able to teach him how to do it.
"I don't think they're bad guys" moments before Anakin kills all the younglings 💀
Jedi are no good either, I think The Jedi and Sith are both different sides of the same evil coin.
@@thereisnopandemic Not an evil coin, just a coin, theres no inbetween, Sith deal in absolutes and jedi deal in zero compromise, same difference
@@thereisnopandemicThe Jedi don’t go out of their way to murder innocents, they will certainly kill enemies in combat and they allow politicians to decide who their enemies are though…
@@dekulruno Jedi still evil, not allowing their cult members to enjoy the gift of love between a man and a woman. They forbid to marry, and force their ideology of being a eunuch onto their padawans. They allow politicians to decide who are their enemies? Allow? so are the Jedi the authority? That’s not how it works, The Jedi are not suppose to be above the law set by the people. And that’s the problem, The Jedi think they are the law, judge and executioners. They are worst than the CIA. The people are the ones who are suppose to allow the Jedi to serve the people not the other way around. Go read on the Sith Holocaust and you’ll see how evil the Jedi are. I don’t like the Jedi at all, find them ideologically flawed and evil, they try to portray themselves as angels of light, but their doctrine show they are as dark as the sith. The Jedi don’t go out of their way to murder innocent? What about the children soldiers they train and sent them of to harms way to their deaths also.
When Palpatine reveals himself to Anakin as a dark force user and Anakin draws his lightsabre, Palpatine's hands are literally shaking. Palps knows how powerful Anakin is and under different circumstances he would definitely lose a fight with him.
You're cooked bro
@@LordTheft He's right tho, Lucas even said Palpatine was worried about if the reveal was correct.
R2 just casually being a warhero of countless battles throughout the ot is my favorite part
I think there is a theory that the whole Star Wars saga is being narrated by R2. That is why he gets to be the hero in so many situations.
@@Kennyancat the first 6 movies are all told from the droids perspective (mainly R2 and C3PO), its why at least 1 of them is in almost every scene, whilst the DT is told from Rey's, Finn's, Po's and Kylo's perspectives.
I have never seen nor heard someone clearly understand The sith point of view yet not fully understand how evil they would become in the fantasy they're watching/talking about
Man, I absolutely hate this order that you’re watching these in but nonetheless, I love the channel and I love that you’re watching them. 👍
Don't worry about being confused by some things here and there.. That's the fault of the idiots that told you watching them out of order was the right way.
You did watch The Empire Strikes Back. When Luke is hanging off the Sky City, he calls out to Leia with the Force, she hears him, knows where to go and goes back for him. For me in the cinema at the time, it was obvious what the connection was.
Yo that kid at the jedi temple that almost made it to senator organas ship would have been an absolute menace with a saber if he was allowed to grow up. Kid fought his way out the temple
Fun fact! Anakin's vocal chords were almost entirely destroyed by the fire and the mask translates his weak speech and makes it audible. Its entirely plausible that Anakin was simply screaming in the suit and it translated it to "Nooooooooooo!"
Until disney canon has had Vader speak to Ahsoka and Obiwan with a broken mask, revealing his voice is completely fine.
@toe? to be fair...
1.) In Ahsoka's case, she didn't break his mask to the point where it revealed his mouth. So we don't know the extent of his speech at that time, but
2.) In the Obi-Wan show, we know he's been periodically using bacta tanks to heal his injuries. And while he will never fully recover, it's possible that the 10 years he's spent using the tanks has healed his vocal chords somewhat. It still seems like a struggle for him to speak.
@@pyxl666 And to be fair on top of that: cybernetic vocal chords aren't that much of a stretch.
Not going to lie... this is more than a little painful to watch. Let me suggest to anyone looking forward to sharing their favorite movie series with family or friends that you follow one simple rule - the only way to watch ANY movie series for the first time is in original release order. Even in the case of Star Wars which "appears" to have been produced out of sequence, it's simply foolhardy not to watch them as they were shared with the original, contemporaneous audience. Watching in any other order inevitably derails critical plot points, diminishes virtually every meaningful character arc, and is all but certain to leave first-time viewers in the worst of all possible worlds; exposed to spoilers AND utterly confused by what are, at their core, extremely simple stories. Is it fun to view the series through a slightly different lens? Sure... and once you're familiar with the story and characters, have at it. But to suggest that *any first-time viewer* watch Star Wars in either the chronological or Machete order (or, for that matter, the MCU viewed in chronological order) is simply destined to fail. In addition to the issues noted, they are unlikely to ever appreciate the essence of the franchise nor will they ever be able to build the shared memory and experience that are such a big part of what brings the fandom together... and that's just not fair.
The machete order is just stupid.
Ep.1 is not half that bad (fuck the boomer) and is important to watch anyway.
I bet the enjoyer of the machete order fanboy all over the sequels (fanfiction imho)
Judging by this dudes reactions to some GoT stuff, I would have 100% guessed he would have chosen the machete order based on how controversial he likes to be. I feel sorry for the people who know him in real life. Bet he drains the fun out of everything.
So.... For the new stuff watch it in order of TFA, Rogue 1, TLJ, Solo, Ep9? That's release order.
His only mistake is skipping episode 1. Machete is great otherwise because it makes episode 6 even more powerful
@@Palendrome Actually... let me offer a little bit of help and clarity; First, regardless of *ANYTHING* else, every first-time watcher of any series should always watch the films in their original release order. While it may be possible to jump around within the timeline "in-story," doing so in real life is impossible, which means that every movie made later in the series must address the knowledge and expectations of the *existing* audience. Every "spoiler," "call-back," or "in-series," reference is created with that viewing experience in mind, and watching the films in any other order simply defies the intent and purpose of the creators. Second, to ensure an optimal Star Wars experience, it's far, far more entertaining, and ultimately, satisfying, to watch them as follows: #4 Star Wars (A New Hope), #5 Star Wars - The Empire Strikes Back, #6 Star Wars - The Return of the Jedi, #1 Star Wars - the Phantom Menace, #2 Star Wars - The Clone Wars, #3 Star Wars - Revenge of the Sith, and then, if the first-time viewer wants more, to jump to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. None of the Disney Trilogy films are worth the viewing...
@@jeffkovacs6521 I agree on the ST, it's shit. But as for machete, there are reactors who have done machete but left episode 1 in and there's no downside. It makes Episode 6 even more powerful because you've built up a relationship with all the characters
whoever told you to watch it in this order played a cruel joke on you. this is the worst way to watch this series.
He saw the backlash, he posted about specifically on Patreon. But there's money involved, so he's just continuing on with this Machete Cut.
He doesn't care about experiencing these movies lol, he's just being paid to.
It's not. It's my favorite way, ONLY if you keep episode 1. I agree that shouldn't be completely skipped, but watching the prequels after episode 5 and treating it like a flashback before finishing it off with 6 is very poetic and gives you this great sense of satisfaction once you finish. Watching 6 first you're left with questions, and watching 3 last you're left with dread.
@@oliviarogers2808 dont get me wrong. i fully accept that way. However, my issue is the same as your caveat, excluding episode 1 completely when it your first time watching the saga makes no sense in any way. Its like watching harry potter but skipping the first one cause other fans thought it was slow. theres a ton of important information in the movie from how we've gotten to the current political climate to the reasons anakin and obi wan become so close. i personally think episode 1 is a very entertaining movie and probably the best of the prequels.
like i said. its just a huge disservice to force a new possible fan to watch somthing in a way that excludes parts you personally dont like.
You are incredibly wrong and you should expand your narrow view.
The machete order is hands down the best way to watch star wars for a first time viewer, just because YOU dont agree with it, it doesnt make it wrong
Edit: ep1 should be included. 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 6. Watching 6 before the prequels has far too many spoilers
I personally love the prequels
Until Anakin turns, the Jedi don't even know he has a family -after all, marriage and having children are strictly forbidden for Jedi Knights. For all they know, he could be worried about a friend or a crush, which is why they're telling him to shrug off his fears.
Much of what you are confused about is explained in the first movie. The Phantom Menace, episode one. Attack of the Clones is episode two and Revenge of the Sith is episode three. There is a story connecting movie that you should watch next called, Rogue One. It will clear up questions as well. This leads directly into the original Star Wars movie, A New Hope. Which is episode four. I hope this will help you make sense of the gaps in the storyline that have been troubling you.
It's not about luck. If you can tap into the force, you can use it as its own sort of "luck" to help you out of situations that normally you would have no chance at surviving.
Yeah! The Force *IS* 'luck'! ^_^
People can wield the force if they have larger amounts of midichlorians in their cells. Which you would have learned in Episode I. So Luke Skywalker has it from Anakin.
Especially since Lucas said he believes genetics affect a person's journey, so being the son of the Chosen One did do Luke some favors.
I wonder if the people that picked this order were Trek fan and trying to ruin the experience for him. Makes me wonder.
Good theory!
I am a Trek fan and would never do this disservice to someone.
"Fire arms are uncivilized", Obi-Wan basically said as much to Luke when he gave him Anikin's Lightsaber
"A weapon from a more civilized age."
I would get triggered over your misspelling of Anakin, but it's not as horrible as how some psychopaths call him "Anikan," and it's actually understandable how you could sound it out that way, so... fair enough
@@MidnightNachos "Anikit"
Hmm, who's the bad guys, Jedi or Dark side? I'mma go Jedi. Sweet Jesus. This is what happens when you watch a series with the order picked out of a hat. Where's a Picard face palm when you need one?
This guy tries so hard to look logical in every video he does, but he comes across everything but that.
Look at the order, he is watching Star Wars. The clown order.
🤡Order.
@@cindygillespie
Indeed.
@@cindygillespie I can only see two of the three comments, but I think you hit the nail on the head.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Also, this is positive proof that the machete order is trash. Definitely go back and check out Ep 1.
Agreed, his criticism of the Jedi sound very much like qui-gon jinn who is completely skipped in this order.
I absolutely love machete order WITH episode 1. That's the only problem. Keep that one and Machete is very interesting. I've seen a few other reactors watch it that way and their reactions were very entertaining.
@@oliviarogers2808 couldn't agree more, skipping movies makes no sense
Yoda was explaining how personal attachments lead to internal struggle which leads to pain and anguish which is a path to the dark side. Jedi are taken at such a young age that they aren’t supposed to have familial connections. It’s meant to be “a calling” like priests are for the Church. Personal attachments aren’t really allowed in the Jedi order (which is why Anikin must hide his marriage to Padme). The dark side is all about exploiting all personal feelings to focus into anger to level up your power.
The reason behind Grievous coughing like that is due to a early fight with Mace Windu. The Jedi master managed to survive only by using the force to crush Grevious's chest plate in damaging the internal organs it covered. The cough is actual George Lucas recording his own fit of Bronchitis to use later on for potential characters.
it was actually due to cybernetic imperfections. The Mace Windu theory is just fanfic as per George Lucas himself.
I know people told you not to watch episode 1 because of jar jar but it does explain more on the force and the overall story
To answer all your questions about why they werent burning alive during their duel on Mustafar (the volcano planet): there are shields and coolant all around them. Some are malfunctioning but some are stable. The little droid that Anakin lands on after evading the lavafall is fully operational and is keeping his body from burning. Same with the platform Obi-Wan is on.
This all said, it is still absolutely toasty. It must have been the sweatiest battle either of them ever had.
Also, this is, in part, them 'just using The Force, bro!'. xD But, not something a casual viewer would get, or even have a concept of, just from watching. They do use it in a lot of subtle, not-visual ways. In this instance, it can be used to mitigate the effects of an environment they're in, like being hot enough to steam your skin off.
The thing is, you can get pretty close to lava. It'll be uncomfortably hot (like in a foundry), but the most immediately dangerous thing (aside from falling in it) is likely to be noxious offgassing.
I wouldn't use the word 'delete' to describe what Anakin/Vader did to the younglings. I would call it a massacre or slaughter.
the watchdog algorithm scans for those words and flags videos for various demonetization and take down strikes. that's why all the youtubers use delete now.
@Legionaire42 youtube is an absolute joke now... they went full sensitive like the rest of society. Since they don't like a word, no one else can use it without losing money or getting flagged... Trying to sensor what adults say and hear, absolutely ridiculous, we aren't children. Speaking of, its not the creators or youtube's job to sensor things for children, that's the parents job and responsibility last time I checked.
I love how you’re a Trekkie and your pointing out impossible stuff in Star Wars lol.
Yeah my first thought was I wonder how he'd react to someone questioning that in Star Trek they have ships that can actually leave the galaxy :0
How impossible! Get these fictional ideas out of my Science Fiction!... lmfao
Gotta give you this, you've watched Star Wars in the most illogical way than anyone else on UA-cam.
It isn’t his fault, he has no familiarity with the franchise and the machete order (which is a real thing) was suggested to him by his patrons, who pay him money monthly so he can do what he does. So like, don’t be too harsh on the poor guy he doesn’t know any better.
@@AgentMullet it's a stupid order and it shows that he's only doing this for money. Following blindly off a cliff because others tell you to, some of that blame has to be on the person. I've seen other people blind to SW having no problem navigating it.
@@AgentMulletthe Machete order only really makes sense to the hardcore elitest star wars fans who feel that the most important thing in the whole saga is the reveal that Vader is Luke's father.
Sure the reveal is completely ruined if you watch them in order, but if you take the whole saga into account - it's not the only exiting thing that happens.
@@DabbaRanx i agree 100% that the machete order is fucking dumb. But I also am saying that a person who knows nothing about star wars except what he’s told cannot be fairly lambasted for watching the films in the order he was told too.
@@blytheguy7510 First of all, since when is “only doing this for the money” a pejorative? What’s wrong with a man tryna make a living or having a side hustle on youtube. We get free high quality entertainment, he gets money. Seems like a pretty sweet deal for all parties involved.
2. Other reactors weren’t cursed with patrons who were mentally challenged enough to recommend the machete order to someone who’s never seen the films before. Ig they got lucky? Or they weren’t directed at all and watched (logically) in release order. But your failing to recognize Mr BLoyd is merely following directions in an arena where the relative lack of consequences for making the wrong choice allows him to do so without much investigation. Obviously he’s not gonna follow his patrons off a cliff, but if they tell him what order to watch a movie series I think he can live with that.
Greetings from 🇩🇪!
That's the problem with visions and seeing the future. Anakin only ever saw the result and never the trigger. The incredible fear of losing someone he loves made him easily influenced. And then exactly this fear triggered what he actually wanted to prevent.✌️
Mace uses a violet lightsaber because it is the actor Samual L Jackson's favorite color. George Lucas allowed it because Violet is a combination of blue and red. This fit in with the character of Mace Windu who uses a fighting style that taps into the dark side without fully giving in to it called Vaapad. Of all the Jedi outside of Anakin Mace was shown to have those dark side type actions.
The reason that machine (Grievous) is coughing is because he's not all machine. He's a cyborg with living lungs taken from his last body. It's a whole other backstory that doesn't get explained in this movie but just shortly before the opening of this movie Mace Windu used the Force to crush his lungs and that's why he's coughing. There is a shitload of supplementary media that explains little things like this, especially media set during the prequels, though it's not all canon since Disney bought the franchise.
Now…sit back and think about what it would’ve been like to have been sitting in a theater years ago, and hear Vader’s breathing for the first time. 😎
It was... Chilling. Like wow... The first of many to come.
As a star wars fan that watches many reactions to it, I'm impressed that you picked up on the "hypocrisy" of the Jedi so well. It's a huge philosophical discussion amongst the community on when side is more intellectually honest. The Jedi are obviously the more peaceful side, but they can often be dogmatic to a fault. Great reaction.
Exactly, just because the Jedi exclusively use the light side of the force doesn't mean they're good.
While Sith deals in absolutes, Jedi deal in non compromise which in the end is basically the same thing.
If the jedi had existed on earth they would have federal agents kicking in the door. They are in fact guilty of a number of real world crimes.
The prophecy was meant to bring balance. And the Jedi brought imbalance thru their actions. So Anakin did bring balance, from a certain point of view.
Is it hypocrisy or does it just show that all religions are bad extremes are never good
@@freeportkidgood question
Yoda was not telling Anakin to only care about himself he was telling him to not become attached to an individual as his devotion is supposed to be on his duty, which is to serve all the people of the republic even if it means making tough choices and sacrifices.
I don’t know about that, Luke didn’t sacrifice Leia and his friends but he still didn’t turn to the dark side? Duty doesn’t have to conflict with caring about your loved ones. Besides if Yoda and the Jedi are so perfect and smart than why did they allow themselves to become too dogmatic, too arrogant, and too ‘attached’ to the Republic and it’s politics. Why didn’t they follow the will of the force the way that Qui Gon did?
@@jmwilliamsart I don’t think attachment is a 100% guarantee of going to the dark side and I think most Jedi do have some attachments as we see them go outside the code to help friends or their padawans etc when they are in need, but attachments do create weak points that a dark side user could take advantage of to turn them, it is exactly that which palpatine uses to turn anakin.
I feel you'd be the type of viewer that would have really enjoyed the backstory given within episode 1 the Phantom Menace. One thing that movie established is that the Jedi were supposed to be peacekeepers not warriors.
There is a whole animated series called The Clone Wars that takes place between Episodes 2 & 3. It explains a lot of the change in skill level and temperament of Anakin, not to mention the scar.
2 bad if he eventually watches it he'll have no clue who qui gon or darth maul is and have no attachment to them
This one just filled in blanks in the back story, Empire Strikes Back taught us why the force matters.
That wasn’t a cell. Palps had himself put on the ship’s observation deck to oversee the battle. It was also large enough to witness his current apprentice and his new one fight to the death. This is to mimic the fight on the ssncond Death Star where Luke will be forced to face the same choice.
You must have really been paying attention when it was revealed in epidote 5 that Luke and Lea had a connection and in episode 6 when it was specifically stated that they were brother and sister.
Haven't watched this reaction yet but remember he hasn't seen Episode 6 yet, so with the order he's doing, this is the movie where the twin thing would be revealed.
@@MusicalJackknife Which is just another reason why watching the series in this order is so profoundly wrong. Based on listening to his interpretation, understanding, and expectations of the story thus far, it's almost as if he's watched a completely different series. I think someone owes him an apology...
@@jeffkovacs6521 yeah machete order is so bizarre. Hell, he won't even get to watch the best lightsaber fight since the order omits episode 1 in its entirety.
The Force can have a powerful influence on the weak marksmen. EDIT: 23:50 ... Tropic Thunder reference noted. EDIT: Keep in mind that you can be attached to your family all you want, but Jedi are monks.
Except Luke had Leia and his friends (who are like family) but he ultimately didn’t turn to the dark side so what does that tell us?
There is a whole series (plus a movie) call The Clone Wars that happens between Episode 2 and 3, then another one after that called Rebels, and another called The Bad Batch. There are two movies set between episodes 3 and 4, "Rogue One", and "Solo: a Star Wars Story".
Yup also the mini series
2 bad if he ever watches it he will have no clue who qui gon or darth maul are and have no attachment to them
Lol my dude gaslighting Yoda here. Yoda wasn't telling Anakin he needed to forsake others and focus on himself, he was stating that growing attached to others in truly significant ways would lead to issues for a Jedi. Jedi philosophy is one of selflessness and harmony with the force. When one acquires possessions and bonds they become susceptible to the grief and sense of loss that comes with losing those things as will inevitably happen, and with the power they wield such grief can lead to travesty, thus they try to remove such things from their motivations in order to remain pure and unbiased, rational, and pragmatic. The Sith are on the polar opposite of that ideology, they are the ones who wield the force for the sake of self-gain and personal reasons. Emotion drives their decisions and motivations. In the greater philosophy of the Star Wars universe both Jedi and Sith are somewhat devoid of humanity on account of how they view the way they should live as users of the Force.
Luke actually faces this same issue in The Empire Strikes Back when he's forced to choose between abandoning his training and saving his friends. He takes the selfish path over the logical one and winds up losing his hand on account of it. In that moment of weakness though Vader offers to him the same thing he himself was tempted and ultimately consumed by. Luke fortunately remains defiant enough to not accept it.
You also gotta remember that we're talking about space wizards here that have immense power and ability to influence things around them to a degree that they could basically just enslave and dominate the universe if they wanted to. One side is trying to keep that power in check through discipline more or less, and the other side is gives no fucks and takes no prisoners in regards to what they use their power for.
The attachment problem Annakin has, is the very reason Younglings are removed from their families at a young age. To help them overcome those feelings.
Remember Master Yoda says those things to Anakin but he has no idea of the marriage or pregnancy...Annakin is hiding that from him.
There is more to Anikan not getting the rank of Master. He is not even eligible for it. To be eligible you have to first be a Knight, which he is, and then you have to train your own padawan who then has to become a Knight, then you can be promoted to Master. Asoka (not in the movies) never became a Knight, so Anikan can't become a Master unless trained another apprentice who then becomes a Knight. But we all know what happens to Anikan so yeah.
Jedi are priest’s that are sheriffs, recruited as babys and grown in the order, you can leave at anytime so he could of left and had a family, but he wanted his cake and to eat it too
Any time you see plot armor or a crazy coincidence it’s the will of the force
Did you watch these out of order, you would ahve found out about leia in episode 6. so in the future if you have an epic set of movies watch them in the order they were made. production dates, not this crazy prequel order

I was really hoping you'd go back and watch the first episode. The fact that you enjoyed this movie makes missing the beginning of the story even worse.
They hid Luke on the planet where his father was raised, using the same last name. And the Empire STILL never found him.
That was actually really smart. Vader would never want to set foot on Tatooine again and the Empire would have no desire to control a nearly worthless desert planet.
The coughing machine is actually not a machine, he's a cyborg. He used to be a regular alien warrior, but he got injured to the point of near death and had to be rebuilt.
There is an Obi-Wan series that takes place between this episode and the next one. It's pretty good and I believe it's only 6 episodes.
11:50 - "Attachment leads to jealousy and greed"
It may help to think of the Jedi order as basically a religious organization similar to fighting monks or warrior priests with a responsibility to protect society.
“So uncivilized” is a reference back to Episode 4, when Obi-Wan shows Luke the lightsaber for the first time and says, “An elegant weapon, for a more civilized age.”
Great reaction also to clarify something for you. Clone troopers are different from Stormtroopers. They were trained to be the best warriors, while stormtroopers didn’t have the same training and were only going for numerical superiority.
36:58 Using the Force is like flexing a muscle. You can do it for a decent amount of time. The more you practice the longer you can do it. You cannot do it continuously though. It will tire you out floating around. What if something incredibly dangerous happens or what have you and you’ve used all your Force frivolously?
Attachment was the reason why they didn't want to train Anikan in the first place, because of his mother. Probably why secret marriage is probably a bad idea.
What you refer to as luck is one aspect of the force manifesting its self just like some of the blaster bolts missing the main caraters throughout the films
"Okay I get it now"
I don't think you do lol
I would check out Rogue 1. It is set between Episodes 3 and 4. It was very well done IMO and will fill in more gaps for you.
He hasn't even watched 1 and 2.... or 6. For some reason hes doing it by the machete order...which doesn't include episode 1, at all... and he's wondering why he's confused.
@@yamahakid450f figured at least he saw 3 and 4, so there would be some context for Rogue 1.
He definitely should have watched these in order. If everything is not fully explained and make complete sense at that given time this guy is easily derailed. Star Wars is better when you let the movies come to you rather than trying to figure out every minute detail.
The order in which you are watching Star Wars in mind boggling
That is the reason so many limbs are removed in these movies. The Jedi are supposedly taught to end a threat without the use of deadly force when possible.
15:00
Jedi and Sith are not the same, but both have similar backgrounds. Yes, the failing of the Jedi Order in the prequels is the detachment from others, which Luke corrects in the original trilogy by purposefully not giving up on his father.
The force takes more effort than you are thinking. At least in the 1st 6 films.
Think of the force like the a Green Lantern Ring if you are familiar with that. Or just an Invisible exoskeleton construct you can manipulate with your mind. It allows you to survive extreme conditions. Perform extra extraordinary actions.
Jedi protect themselves with a force shield. Sidious’ lightning ripped through yodas shield like a kleenex
Let me tell you about the mastermind that is Senator/Chancellor/Emperor Palpatine (aka Darth Sidious). The ENTIRE reason this war started was by his orchestration.
From the military blockade at Naboo, the entire separatist movement was done by him. The sneaky grabs for emergency power as a senator to the chancellor, creating the clone army a decade in advance, starting the war, masking the veil over the the jedi, bolstering Anakin to become Vader. Everything was done by his orchestration.
There is no greater evil, no better thought out plan, no greater manipulator than Sidious. One of my favorite unveiling of a character in all fiction is realizing his mastermind behind the entirety of both trilogies. Magnificent
