Fun fact... That flinch reaction from the Youngling when Anakin ignited his light saber was real. When filming the scene, Hayden yelled at him to scare him and make him jump like that.
Idk how I feel about that. On 1 hand it works for the scene and does build tension well. But on the other feels like a cheap way to get a child actor to be able to act. Same with the It film from 2017. The adults on set just kinda really scared the kids to get a reaction out of them. Imo a good director and casting director can have a child actor portray these emotions without actually having to in real life scare them or something. It's kinda different when dealing with child actors, feels a little exploitative imo vs getting an adult actor's real reaction.
@@philnicholson7863 I guess. I'm torn. It fits well in the film, the kid actor did a good job but idk feels a little gross to get a child actor to act by having to actually scare them in real life. In the Alien film when the adult actor's freak out at the alien it's their genuine reaction which I'm okay with. But when it comes to kid actors I feel conflicted on if it's necessary to do that kind if thing. Obviously the kid actor in this film wasn't scared too much or put in danger so it's harmless I assume.
@@carlop.7182Totally incorrect. Lucas sold the company in 2012. The Clone Wars began development around 2005 and first released in 2008. The series was self-funded by Lucas and he was actively involved in the development and production of the first six seasons. The final season in 2020 used concepts created with Lucas. Disney has produced plenty of garbage, but the idea that Lucas disapproves of TCW is bullshit
Fun fact: The kid who plays the youngling who goes up to Anakin/Vader during Order 66 actually met Hayden Christensen during a Con. When he explained who he was, Hayden playfully responded “Guess I missed one.” 😂😂😂
Another fun fact. Hayden basically screamed off camera to startle the kid so he'd give that little jump he gives when Anakin lights the saber. I believe Hayden apologized afterwards for it.
Anakin didn’t kill Padme, the Emperor is purposely lying to him in that moment to make him even more angry and hateful. Essentially, the film is implying that Padme died of a broken heart.
@@dustinaddington74 but that doesn't make sense if she died from a broken heart because her last words are telling Obi to have hope. It feels like she was still hopeful and worried about Ani. Also I know break ups hurt but I feel like being forced choked is more likely to cause death than a broken heart
@@danielcastaneda4975 wdym? You feel Padme dying from a broken heart is what happened vs Anakin force choking a pregnant woman causing her death? Or just giving birth which has a mortality rate from complications?
Popular misconception that people assume both droids minds were wiped - Bail Organa specifically states the protocol droid, meaning R2 still knows everything going through the later movies.
@@Paul_1971 for over 10 years I thought he said both droids. It was a weird Mandela effect when I rewatched the scene. This whole time R2 remembered everything
@@Thed538dhsk i dont know why ppl continuously think both, the movie clearly states the protocol droid mindwipe, show ppl dont care to listen to dialogue when watch movies
And R2 is the "man"😉 for keeping it to himself. Though he actually never saw AS become DV as he stayed back as AS told him to... Which he "regretted" and never did again😉
Man, can you imagine what R2 thinks after all hes been through. He had a front row seat watching the most pivotal moment of the most pivotal person in the galaxy. He watched it all happen in person, he saw anakins fall, thepurge of the jedi, he saw Anakin kill padme, he saw the republic become the empire, he saw everything. In the bookks we even catch some glimpses of R2s thought while talking to c3po. After the Jedi were declared enemies of the republic, R2 states 'the factors do not add' and when 3po asks if anakin has told him anything,R2 replies with 'No, he has completely stopped talking to me.' even the droids could feel something was wrong in their own way.
There were definitely people crying in theaters back 2005 when Anakin exterminated all the Jedi children. Your reaction was normal seeing a once young, selfless hero turn into something evil. Please react to Rogue One. It takes place between Episode 3 and just before Episode 4. It’s considered the finest SW film of the Disney era.
It's a subtle detail of the second and third film, Obi-Wan and the Council are always critical of Anakin, even when it's not needed. Then the next scene is always Palpatine sneaking praise to Anakin directly, or praising him to others. Anakin gravitated towards Palpatine, a grandfather-figure, as Obi-Wan treated Anakin like a little brother, rather than being the father figure he needed. Combine that with the Council beginning to take digs at Anakin because of their dislike of the Chancellor, while at the same time expecting Anakin to spy for them without having the courage to ask him directly, pushes a person who values loyalty in another direction. The Jedi beginning doing thing against their code, combine that with Mace openly stating he didn't trust Anakin, then trying to kill a person Anakin has no reason to distrust, is the final push into the arms of the devil. By movie's end, Anakin is buried by anger and lies, he has no reason to live, nothing but his new identity in his mechanical prison to live on as... Until cracks in the persona begins to form one day, when he learns of his son.
anakin wanted to be a Jedi to the very end, he saw through palpatine but chose to turn anyway because he couldn't take the risk that Palpatine DID know and he let him be eliminated.
@@sgtjohnson Draining life. Essence transfer is the Sith technique Palpatine mentioned in the opera house. Notice Palpatine never told Anakin about the double-edged catch to essence transfer.
The Clone Wars lasted three years, the same amount of time it took for this movie to release after Episode II. During those three years, Cartoon Network aired a 2D animated Clone Wars series. It shows how General Grievous "kidnapped" Palpatine and also how he got that cough.
For me, the Jedi council, pushed A LOT Anakin to the dark side. They´re afraid of him, never truly trusted him, never gave him any serious mission... and mixed with Anakin fears (mostly for Padme) and feeling himself always excluded... the final step was all the Emperor´s manipulation during years but... the Jedi Council had big part of responsibility in this disaster. Even in the last chance he said the truth to Windu. Anakin tried and tried to follow the right path, but all these things became him in Darth Vader. The Emperor was right, unfortunately, when he said something about the "dogmatic and narrow view of the Jedi". They were blinded...
Great take, and I agree, even with Yoda as my favorite character lol. The only thing is that if you watch Clone Wars we can see that the council did give Anakin tons of responsibility in leading the 501st, the notoriously strongest legion of clones. I think that's why he was so upset about not being named Master, since he was responsible for countless wins throughout the galaxy and yet they still didn't trust him. Although important to note that if he would have just listened to the Jedi code and not married Padme.... That's why its so problematic that he wasn't raised there since he was a kid. he had already felt love and attachment and couldn't align with the Jedi code... my favorite tragic and beautiful story in modern media!
@carlop.7182 but the thing is the Jedi council also distrusted Anakin way too abruptly, ever since Anakin was a boy even. Qui-gon Jinn was right all along when he tried to get the Jedi council to be more open minded towards Anakin. But instead they didn’t listen to Qui-gon’s wisdom, but instead judged Anakin too harshly, pushing him to him breaking point. Anakin was frustrated rightfully so because he knew the Jedi Council didn’t trust him, because they were afraid of what they sensed concerning him the day they first met him. But they failed to realize that they being so hard on him through unnecessary distrust is what made their fears become a reality. Anakin became what the Jedi made him, by quickly judging him with complete lack of trust in him from the start. Anakin wouldn’t have turned to the dark side so easily if the Jedi Council wasn’t so hard on him. And even Obi-wan at times may have been guilty of judging him so harshly too quickly at times, but ended up trying to support Anakin as much as he could; he however probably should have objected more often when the Jedi Council harshly judged Anakin. Yoda and Obi-wan came to realize this downfall of Anakin turning to the dark side was their fault, along with most of the Jedi. The Jedi were very arrogant and ignorant on how they judged Anakin. Anakin wouldn’t have become so frustrated and angry as he became if they didn’t project their fears on him. The things they sensed about Anakin the first day they met him, those dark things came true years later because the jedi judged him so harshly. The Jedi were trying to prevent those things from becoming true, but that led them to being too hard on him to where they made come true what they were trying to prevent from coming true. Their fears caused them to judge him harshly, which they did in order to prevent him from turning, but all it did was made him turn! This is why Yoda said, “Into exile, I must go. Failed, I have” and why Obi-wan said “I have failed you Anakin! I have failed you!” And also why ten years later he said, “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Anakin, for all of it!” Obi-wan being sorry for all of the truly unfair treatments the Jedi put him through all because they were unnecessarily afraid of him, which fear caused them to judge him so harshly, which in turn is what pushed him to the dark side. He turned because he was afraid of losing Padmé, yes, but he also turned because after everything he went through with the Jedi over the years he became convinced that the Jedi were scum or worse. And Darth Sidious played upon Anakin’s frustrations with the Jedi to manipulate him into further descending into the dark side, brainwashing him by manipulating him. The Jedi only made things easier for Darth Sidious to manipulate Anakin into turning to the dark side. Darth Sidious played upon everything: what frustrations Anakin was going through with the Jedi Council, and Anakin’s fear of losing Padmé. The Jedi were to a big degree to blame for why Anakin turned to the dark side, and that’s what Yoda and Obi-wan realized. It’s why Yoda said “Into exile, I must go. Failed, I have” and why Obi-wan said, “I have failed you, Anakin! I have failed you!” (in 19 BBY), and why Obi-wan said “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Anakin, for all of it” ten years later (in 9 BBY) in the Obi-wan Kenobi series.

@@thebosstex1172 Im not sure you understand how the Jedi work . Anakin was too old to be trained. He carried a lot of fear. He should have never been married as a jedi which created attachment which lead to fear. Anakins end result was basically predicted by Yoda.
Palpatine is like a father to Anakin, or like a grandfather, this is seen in the comics, he has always been with him since he was a child, that's why Anakin trusts him. Even what happened with his mother he told Palpatine but he didn't tell Obiwan, there you can see the difference in appreciation that Anakin has towards the Chancellor and Obiwan.
@@paulvonoberstein2302 Not to mention Anakin calls Sheevy a mentor and a friend when Obi-Wan asks him to spy on him. That is significant too. I would say that these are details that are easy to miss though, because they are quite subtle.
@@AbbyJaneReactsthey did but a lot happens in these movies it's incredibly easy for some bits to get filtered out from everything else that's happening Anakin met Palpatine before he met the jedi council, Palpatine then wanted to watch his career with great interest When Anakin got his first assignment in AOTC he went straight to Palpatine to let him know and even credits this mission to Palpatines guidance This first mission includes Anakin massacring an entire village which in the first 15 mins of ROTS we find out that Anakin told Palpatine about the massacre, proving that Anakin trust Palpatine and Padme more than any jedi
Here you realize a sad fact. When in episode V Luke said to R2 "stay with the ship", R2-D2 ignored him. Because in episode III... his master Anakin also said him "stay with the ship", and obeyed him, but his master... never came back.
Anakin hates the Jedi Order and Council by this time: Reminder, the Jedi Council: 1. They expelled his padawan, Ahsoka, after she was framed. The Council found her guilty in a kangaroo court and put her in a military tribunal that would have guaranteed her subsequent execution. Anakin personally witnessed this, and was enraged. He scambled to prove her innocence and when he finally did, his padawan's trust in the Order and Council had been destroyed, so she left. 2. Kept him on the outside when deciding to use Obi-Wan as an undercover operative. He was gaslit and lied to for several rotations. When the truth came out, all he got from Obi-Wan and the Council was an "oops, hey it turned out okay in the end". 3. Despite his military success, he was never granted the role of Jedi Master. He thoroughly deserved it, and the only person to ever acknowledge and thus address Anakin with this title was the Chancellor himself: "I hope you have a reason for bursting in on our proceedings, Master Skywalker." The Jedi Order was willing to hold kangaroo courts to kick out their own on favorable terms, gaslight and tear close people apart for a "mission", and didn't always give people the title they deserved. Anakin had all reason to be enraged at them all.
FROM THE MOVIE NOVEL: This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker, forever: The first dawn of light in your universe brings pain. The light burns you. It will always burn you. Part of you will always lie upon black glass sand beside a lake of fire while flames chew at your flesh. You can hear yourself breathing. It comes hard, and harsh, and it scrapes nerves already raw, but you cannot stop it. You can never stop it. You cannot even slow it down. You don’t even have lungs anymore. Mechanisms hardwired into your chest breathe for you. They will pump oxygen into your bloodstream forever. "Lord Vader? Lord Vader, can you hear me?" And you can’t, not in the way you once did. Sensors in the shell that prisons your head trickle meaning directly into your brain. You open your scorched-pale eyes; optical sensors integrate light and shadow into a hideous simulacrum of the world around you. Or perhaps the simulacrum is perfect, and it is the world that is hideous. 'Padme? Are you here? Are you all right?' you try to say, but another voice speaks for you, out from the vocabulator that serves you for burned-away lips and tongue and throat. "Padme? Are you here? Are you all right?" "I’m very sorry, Lord Vader. I’m afraid she died. It seems in your anger, you killed her." This burns hotter than the lava had. "No…no, it is not possible!" You love her. You have always loved her. You could never will her death. Never. But you remember… You remember all of it. You remember the dragon that you brought Vader forth from your heart to slay. You remember the cold venom in Vader’s blood. You remember the furnace of Vader’s fury, and the black hatred of seizing her throat to silence her lying mouth… And there is one blazing moment in which you finally understand that there was no dragon. That there was no Vader. That there was only you. Only Anakin Skywalker. That it was all you. Is you. Only you. You did it. You killed her. You killed her because, finally, when you could have saved her, when you could have gone away with her, when you could have been thinking about her, you were thinking about yourself… It is in this blazing moment that you finally understand the trap of the dark side, the final cruelty of the Sith - Because now yourself is all you will ever have. And you rage and scream and reach through the Force to crush the shadow who has destroyed you, but you are so far less now than what you were. You are more than half machine, you are like a painter gone blind, a composer gone deaf, you can remember where the power was but the power you can touch is only a memory, and so with all your world-destroying fury it is only droids around you that implode, and equipment, and the table on which you were strapped shatters, and in the end, you cannot touch the shadow. In the end, you do not even want to. In the end, the shadow is all you have left. Because the shadow understands you, the shadow forgives you, the shadow gathers you unto itself- And within your furnace heart, you burn in your own flame. This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker. Forever…
there is about 3 years between ep 2 & ep 3 (timeline wise). Basically the Clone Wars take place between those years and explain a lot of your questions. When it comes to lightsaber's they get their color from the kyber crystal used (in canon)... the real reason, Samuel L Jackson wanted a purple lightsaber to stand out vs the others.
Yes he asked George Lucas if he could have a purple one so he could see himself during fight scenes unaware how his character was important... After some thought GL surprised him with his desire 😊
Back in 2005 i was with my parents in cinema while watching this episode for the first time and for entire movie i was telling myself- this is how the times of dark side has started 🖤 Anakin who supposed to be chosen one while bringing balance to the force , betrayed those who believed in him for years 💔💔 it's really heartbreaking after 19 years to see how Anakin chooses the dark path that his beloved wife Padme can't follow 💔💔 it really breaks my heart too 💔💔 Also biggest pain in this movie is then Yoda himself tells Obi Wan these words - the boy you trained has been gone already 💔💔💔 thank you for the beautiful and emotional heartbeaking reaction , may the force be with you. Always ❤️
Anakin turning on his loved ones and the Dark Side so quickly has some reeasoning behind it. 1. He is still very young. He is a 23 year old forced to lead troops in a galactic wide war. He is extremely jaded and probably jumped at a solution to the war, whithout all the jedi and republics deliberating. He mentions the peace he brought a lot whily deflecting from his guilt. 2. The dark side is like a drug. Despite what Disneys films want to imply, using the Dark Side has no safe option. Even a little makes you slowly turn into a worse person. Palpatine is so effective with it because he was a born Psychopath and had no Morals that needed to deteriorate. Thats also why his face is so deformed and anakins eyes turn yellow. The Dark Side is like a drug eating away at you. 3. Anakin is even different in his speech pattern and body language after killing everyone in the Temple. He ,,blackened his Soul" by doing vile things to get a stronger connection with the dark side. Only then could he learn all those techniques. 4. He was repressing his emotions for 13 years. That is okay for regular jedi since they are raised to live that way. But Anakin wasnt. He was literaly like a Cola bottle just waiting for a Mentos to be dropped in it. That is also why after calming down and waking up in the suit, he immediatly asks after Padmes Safety. Obi Wan coming with her was the worst thing that could have happened. I am in no way excusing his actions. He is my favourite Character in fiction, but like many who fell to the dark side its still partially his fault. He is not at fault for what life threw at him, but he is at fault for how he reacted to it.
@@anteletica1148 I mean so many of us would probably end up turning to the dark side 😂 it’s like I understand him but as the viewer knowing what we knows it was frustrating to see him do those things
@@AbbyJaneReacts Yeah most people would probably fall to it. That is why Jedi take baby of at most 3 years old. So they can be raised to live like that. And the parents get a choice whether to send their child. A lot of people nowadays try to frame the Jedi as child stealers, when thats not what George Lucas was going for. In his Interviews he makes it clear that jedi arent supposed to be relatable, that most people wouldnt be able to live like that and that it is an ideal to aspire to. The force being in balance is destroying the sith because the galaxy is in balance when people live in harmony, instead of taking for themselves. Its tragic because a lot of Sith in the Lore join the Dark Side for good intentions, but almost always lose sight of that goal or destroy what they wanted to save. The only ones who enjoy it are psychos like palpatine
@@anteletica1148to me Anakin was just what a normal kid with childhood trauma but a shit ton of talent would end up like trying to fit in within a very secular and dogmatic cult when that is not how you you were raised . We love the Jedi , but they are A CULT of space wizard knights who worship the force and created their own STRICT code. The force didn’t create the Jedi code , the force just is.
@@ElPresidenteMargz thats not what George lucas would say. He always said that the jedi are on the right side and good. At the end they got too involved with politics after 25 000 years of good service. The Problem is that we only see the jedi at one of their low points in the movies. 1.The jedi are not a cult. Its a knight order. 2. They do not whorship the force but ally with it. 3. The force didnt need to create the jedi, since their prupose is to serve its will. The light side doestn exist. Its The Force VS The Dark Side. So the jedi serve its will and its will is to be in balance (absence of Dark). 4. He is not a normal kid with Trauma. Trauma made sure that he isnt a normal kid
Qui Gonn spirit taught Obi Wan to become a force ghost (at the end of the movie Yoda said to Obi that someone returned from the netherworld of the force). In all those years in solitude in Tatooine Obi Wan learnt it. That´s why he told Vader in episode IV: "if you strike me down, I´ll become more powerful that you can possibly imagine".
@@ronaldnelson6692less theory, more canonical Anakin was taught as the moment of his death because Force-Ghosts in the current canon exist beyond time, so they can just stretch that moment as long as needed it seems.
The Kyber crystals, that power the lightsabers, are the ones that give them their colors. The red ones are artificially made by the Sith, by making a crystal "bleed", with their dark side arts. P.S: no matter what you see in Star Wars Visions or The Acolyte, lightsabers DON'T CHANGE COLORS, depending on who's wielding it. That's a big, fat Disney lie.
Synthetic crystals were in old expanded universe stories and those were only some old comics but they are not canon. In canon story Palpatine teaches to Vader how to corrupt crystal of Jedi lightsabre. Vader did take lightsabre of Jedi which Vader defeated in duel. "The Saber of a Sith is not given - it is taken"
Anakins birth was due to darth plaugius and palpatine trying to influence the midchlorions for their own power, and the force created anakin to combat this imbalance almost like a white blood cell. Anakin killed palpatine bringing balance to the force in the end he also ended the the old dogmatic jedi order.
@Leontemplar-yt6ff I'm not going to decanonize great legends storys because disney brought Lucasfilm when the only good material they created is rouge one, season 7 clonewars and andor (I don't like it) . It's like considering rings of power as tolkien

When you got emotional (27:30) it was with a very good reason, it was the last time Obi Wan saw "Anakin" next time they saw each other he was already Vader. And I love how that scene was pictured, Obi Wan standing in the light, and Anakin in the dark.
The reason anakin is so close to palpatine is because while obi wan became a brother to anakin, palpatine groomed him to allow himself to become anakins father figure that he always needed. Notice palpatine call anakin “son” 19:30
The beginning of the downfall of Anakin was how he was taken from his mother in the first Star Wars movie, I mean; in the republic the Jedi were identified at very early age, however the practical means by which they were incorporated into the academy were a lot more considerate, .. although he was freed by the deal Ben Kenobi’s teacher (Qui gon Jinn) made with Watto, .. it was way he was freed, and the circumstance, .. to take this child away from his mother in such a way began the unreconcilable ripples within the force!! picked up on within Jedi council session via Yoda & Mace windu, these ripples intensified during Anakin’s enrolment and early training, causing slight contempt for the council, and especially when learning they’re trust in him wasn’t sincere because of his force abilities. So in conclusion the Jedi order actually helped with the early stages of Vader’s creation not only by principle but more so practice In light of episode III Palpatine was controlling nearly everything!! however slight/subtle his manipulation of Anakin was nothing short of perfect, again based upon the vacuum in his life of no parents, although Ben Kenobi was like a father figure to him, His loyalty was first to the council which was also an underline problem between them, so in many respects Anakin felt alone, and it was the subtle encouragement of the chancellor (Palpatine) to engage and continue in exploring his passion and of course personal needs .. enter Padme, so I’m certainly in the understanding that he also arranged for her to have lesser role in politics as to be able to submerge into a more secretive relationship with Anakin, all the while slowly edging him more and more to the chancellors wishes.
53:47 This specific shot was inspired by the painting where Jacob was "wrestling" with God. The movements are the same. It perfectly describes Anakin's story. His dark side conflicting with his light. And the mental struggle of his childhood trauma affecting his current life. It all started when he lost his mother.
@AbbyJaneReacts yeah there's also another close up shot where anakin is colliding his hand with obi wants and they both try to force push each other while standing still, that shot is inspired by a famous painting where lucifer is staring menacingly while a single tear drops from his eye look up anakin Skywalker lucifer crying painting on Google images you'll see the parallel.
I'm so glad you clarified in the first few seconds of this video. I was like "You started watching Star Wars on Revenge of the Sith!?" That's such a wild spot to start. lol.
You mentioned Anakin’s new scar, and also noted General Grievous’ coughing. If you really want to know what those are actually all about, I suggest watching Genndy Tartakovsky’s “Clone Wars.” Now, to be clear, this is NOT the Clone Wars series you’re thinking of. It was an officially sanctioned series of 15-minute short cartoons that aired on Cartoon Network over the weeks leading up to the premiere of “Revenge of the Sith” in theaters. This was THE official “Clone Wars” until Disney decided to declare it to be no longer canon because they wanted to make their own much longer Clone Wars series. But George Lucas worked directly with Genndy Tartakovsky on the cartoons, and they made “Revenge of the Sith” such that, if you didn’t see Tartakovsky’s cartoons then you didn’t know the backstory on several elements that were present in “Revenge of the Sith.” The cartoons conclude with General Grievous kidnapping Chancellor Palpatine, and with the reason that Grievous is now coughing; and the last frame of the cartoon is literally the first frame of “Revenge of the Sith” (kind of like how “Rogue One” leads directly into Episode IV).
It will surely take awhile for you to react to the entire Clone Wars tv show, but it is absolutely worth the watch, and is certainly not "just a kids show" as some may dismiss it, despite being designed/broadcast to a younger target audience, the show is still full of dark and interesting themes/content, and adds a ton of context that really makes future re-watches of the movies so much more impactful, especially as it really draws out and shows the more realistic and slow descent of Anakin into a darker and darker mentality that makes his eventual turn so much more believable. So much so that many fans don't even really blame him much for being so receptive to Palpatine's manipulation. As many others have surely said, Anakin's relationship with the Jedi themselves is certainly a major factor that isn't really shown much in the movies, but makes for a great watch in the Show. If you do end up reacting to the show I will certainly be willing to watch patiently, as will many others I'm sure :)
Bellies after pregnancies remain big but slowly shorten down over time after child birth. But because Padmé died right after, her belly won’t shrink back down. Her body will just decay in the coffin over in the mausoleum.
They didn't fake Padme's stomach. She died seconds after giving birth. Honestly if you think women just loose all that weight the second they give birth you should speak to your sisters or mum more It takes days for their hormones to reshape their bellies after pregnancy and even longer for twins
@@more-reasons6655 The reason why people think this way isn't because they think that bellies shrink instantly, but rather that funerals usually don't occur on the day of the individual's passing Now, granted, it still would take longer than a week for the pregnancy belly to fully go away, which usually exceeds the time waited before a funeral service occurred, but since Padmé is a beloved political figure it's not unreasonable for someone watching the first time to assume it would be delayed a bit longer so that everyone who wants to attend can clear their schedule
The thing is, the movies don't really go into why Anakin trusts Palpatine so much. Basically, Palpatine had been grooming him ever since Anakin was a child and first came to Coruscant (where the Jedi temple is located). To Anakin, Palpatine is a mentor and trusted friend - however strange that may seem to outsiders. Palpatine knew how Anakin came to be after meeting him for the first time (birthed by the force), because it had something to do with his own Sith master, and decided early on that he wanted Anakin as his apprentice. Palpatine played 4D-chess against everyone, and won.
Anakin isn't wrong in feeling that the Jedi were conspiring against him and that they did not trust him, in fact the majority of the Jedi Order were quite open in their dislike and hostility towards him; something that made it very difficult for Obi-Wan whom himself went from "don't disagree with the Council again" to "the Council is asking this, not me" which is enormous for someone born, raised, and indoctrinated from day one. Anakin's access to the Jedi Archives, the Training Rooms, and the Holocrons (Ancient Jedi that made a teaching A.I. called a Gatekeeper using the Force to create an imprint of themselves/their knowledge) were at the same level as the average fourteen year old Padawan while he was a Knight in the Order, a General in the GAR, and had been doing missions for the Jedi since he was nine back to back fixing the leaks in the Republic while the causes of the problem were ignored by the Jedi/Republic entirely yet wouldn't allow any criticism or suggestions. He was an unwanted savior created by and sent to them by the Force which they, on the whole, felt was unnecessary and unneeded; that they were perfectly fine on their own and were correct about everything. The rank of Jedi Master comes with unlimited access to all of that. He was taught the very, very basics of lightsaber combat and the Force yet his first Force Push had more power than any five Jedi Masters (save Yoda, Fisto, and Windu) at 10 years old despite having had little practice and barely any training. They knew if he was allowed access to the same knowledge as others his age, he'd genuinely rival Yoda before he was legally allowed to drink. He was genuinely treated as a slave; told where to go, what to do, forbidden from speaking most of the tiime, forbidden from showing emotions, forbidden from any real relationships, and was one wrong move from life in a secret Jedi Prison without possibility of either parole or a trial. He can't leave when he wants to, unlike some Jedi, as he was "too dangerous to be outside of Jedi custody". So he fixed their problems without thanks or rewards, covered up corruption or was told to outright go along with it/ignore it, had to turn away from those in need (the entire reason he wanted to be a Jedi), served a government incapable of fulfilling its most basic duties while most politicians engaged in slavery or some sort of business with the Hutts, allowed "indentured servitude", and plainly did not work at all, a Republic he was not allowed Citizenship in and didn't believe in. Then he's told to fight their wars, to lead armies on hellish planets, and ordered to do things against the Jedi Code over and over again while he was betrayed by them or had the closest people to him betrayed by the Order without hesitation while being explicitly lied to. He's saved entire quadrants of the galaxy and most of the Jedi Order's lives by this point, never allowed a break or a vacation and still expected to be completely obedient while being treated with blatant disrespect, distrust, and alienation with subpar training from his older brother figure whom was directly ordered to hold back on teaching the boy any skills within the Force even in the middle of war. On top of it all, he is kept severely isolated with most communications either "unavailable" or heavily monitored when available. I'd be pissed off, too. The Jedi no longer served the Force or its Will and had abandoned all independance in favor of complete reliance upon an undeniably failed and corrupted government that they used the Force to prop up as it continuously gets worse over the centuries; weaker and weaker until the only reason the Hutts did not conqueor it was Sith shenagens and because they did not have to do so...because they already owned the majority of its most powerful sectors through their senators. The Sith won a thousand years earlier, all they had to do was wait for it all to fall apart on its own.
and yet despite all that Anakin loved being a Jedi, loved what they represented and wanted to continue being a jedi until he knew in his mind he couldn't be anymore.
@@scottb3034 Much like your capitalization and sentence structure. Think on the irony of someone incapable of writing using writing to tell them they are wrong. I read ALL of the books, including that terrible Glove of Darth Vader book, long before it became "Legends" and have been enjoying them since '91. Do you REALLY want to have a debate on this?
Rightfully so. The Sith planned this for hundreds of years, it's the sole reason why the rule of two exists - to strike the Jedi from the shadows while guaranteeing that every generation of Sith is more powerful and/or more ruthless than the previous one. And Palpatine is the one who gained enough power to finally execute this plan.
Purple lightsaber is like a mix between light & dark. Plus, Mace Windu has it, because Samuel L. Jackson requested to have a purple lightsaber, because purple is his favorite color.
Palpatine names Vader from the force, Anakin is given the name Vader as a short form of "Invader", similar to Palpatine's sith name Sidious short for him being "Insidious".
"what are they watching?" In darth plaeguis's tale scene. It's a ballet in water using anti-gravity technology and do by a celeb troop of the moncalamari people ( admiral ackbar in episode 6 " it'a a trap!!")
Lightsaber colors and there meanings: Blue: Focuses on lightsaber combat more than the force Green: Focuses on the force more than lightsaber combat Purple: Is able to tap into the dark side as a Jedi while still being a Jedi (Mace Windu is the only user, he created this style) Red: Used by Sith Some lore: The reason Jedi have multi color lightsabers and the sith only have Red is because Blue, Green, Purple, and so on kyber crystals (what's inside a lightsaber/powers it) are all natural and are on the planet Illum. The Jedi have control over Illum so naturally the Sith can't access it without taking it over so instead they created synthetic kyber crystals which are red.
the clones wars cartoon is kind of an anthology, where there are 2-3 episodes together in a mini arcs. Episodes across the entire series aren't even really linear in the timeline. You can do a bit of research and really pick and choose what to watch. There are definitely skippable episodes, and some that are more "must watch".
This is such a good movie and there are a tons of great moments in it. It's my 2nd favourite in the series between Empire Strikes back and Rouge One. Your frustration throughout the movie was really sweet and super relatable, that's exactly how all of us felt. Anakin should never have been raised as a Jedi. They usually take the kids very early on, as soon as they show signs of being Force Sensitive so they're pretty much in "pristine" condition emotionally. They dont even remember who their parents were. Anakin was heavily traumatized by the time he started his training, he and his mother was sold as a slave plus I imagine he has seen some nasty stuff on Tatooine as a child. During his entire time in a Jedi temple everyone was telling him he is the Chosen One, so by the time the Clone Wars starts he developed a solid God complex so obviously his ego was hurt every time they treated him as a padawan. Things just escalated rapidly from there. He lost his Mom, he massacred the Tuskens, his hormons are all around the place as a teenager, he is literally a soldier in a war and commanding hundreds of clone troopers, hiding his relationship with Padme building up a considerable amount of guilt over that and the whole time Palpatine was manipulating him, being a father figure to him, a father he never had. Really sad but very nicely done character arc. ( Clone Wars adds a LOT of context to it, you should watch it ) Few answers to your questions: Leia's memories about her Mom is a plothole, dont mind it. Vader means Father in Dutch so Palpatine apparently of Dutch origin lol. ( Thats where Lucas got the name from ). You've guessed it right that Darth Plagueis was Palpatine's master. The Sith has been working on this plan for over a thousand years, slowly moving the pieces into position, taking over mega-corporations to gain influence over key assets, orchestrating conflicts and smaller wars to create the political situations to have the results they wanted and slowly push the Galaxy towards and all out war. His master died ( Palpatine killed him ) during the events of the Phantom Menace. I highly recommend to read or listen to the audiobook version the novel called Darth Plagueis if you are interested, its pretty good they've done some wild stuff. In lights of what I know of Plagueis I believe Palpatine was using some sort of Sith Magic to keep Anakin's alive and somehow used Padme to do that. They already had a very strong emotional connection and he used the Force to connect with her like he said, he felt that she was still alive. The Wookies as you know are extremely strong sentient creatures so the Empire basically enslaved their world and use them as a slave workforce all around the Galaxy. The rewatch value of this movie is pretty high, there are so many neat little thing to appreciate. Here is a few: When Anakin said to Palpatine about Obi-Wan that his fate will be the same as ours. All three of them died on a Death Star. The lava planet called Mustafar and that is where Vader will build his castle and that will be his "home" where he retreats. Mustafar is originated from the muslim name Mustafa which means Chosen One. During the Order 66 scene the Jedi with the pointy head ( Ki-Adi Mundi ) was not killed by the clones. He sensed that the clones were turning against him, so he turned around to face them and deflected all their shots. He was killed by the droids from behind. In my opinion you should watch the Clone Wars, its some of the very best Star Wars stories out there. The animation style in the first 2 seasons are pretty rough ( they had no animation department so they were figuring out from the basics ) and some of the stories a aimed towards children but by season 3 it gets really good and the themes become way more adult and really dark at times. You could bunch them up in packs of 3-6 per video so it would not take as long to get through them, but they're really worth a watch they add a lot of context to the movies and they're a lot of fun.
There is a theory that explains very well how Padme's death occurred. It is so compelling and logical that it makes a lot of sense to many. The theory says that it is actually Sidious who kills her through Sith magic, the emperor knew a lot about that, it is through the necklace that Anakin gave him, that Sidious was able to kill her by cursing the necklace and draining her life force through it. That's why Sidious knew she was dead, he felt her through the force and blamed Anakin for that so he would feel guilty, leading him more to the dark side and so he could manipulate Anakin better. It makes sense because it's in the same moment Padme died, Vader was born. Actually if you think about it ,Vader could not exist with Padme alive since she would never approve Dark Anakin and making him return to the light side and escaping Sidious's clutches. The emperor knew this perfectly well so he made sure that Padme died.
If she's going to do clone wars her mods or editors need to give her a condensed watch list. No way she's sitting down for what like 400 episodes at this point.
11:30 - Jedi commonly have blue or green lightsabers and rarely other colors (Yellow is uncommon, and stuff like Orange, Purple, etc. are very rare) but there are reasons Jedi are picked certain colors for their first lightsaber depending on their Jedi traits/proficiencies. Mace Windu had a purple lightsaber since the actor, Samuel L. Jackson, loved purple and requested it. Dark side users like the Sith have red lightsabers since [backlore info in Disney canon] the power of the dark side can "bleed" a lightsaber red.
"According to the American Heart Association (AHA), broken heart syndrome, or takotsubo cardiomyopathy, is a reaction your heart has to a surge of stress hormones caused by an emotionally stressful event. Broken heart syndrome causes the heart to stop operating normally, resulting in heart failure."
Yes, it's hilarious how the Star Wars fanbase comes up with any forms of dark force manipulation by Palpatine just because they don't know the broken heart syndrome is real.
Yoda - just strolls into the big bad guys front room Abby - "Yoda is the least arrogant guy ever" Yoda has just experienced the downfall of the jedi and all he knows is that him and Obiwan survived, then as a hail mary he sends the last two keepers of the peace to fight against the sith with no thought about what would happen to the galaxy if they fail If that isn't arrogance i don't know what is
that isn't arrogance at all.... he did what he had to do in that situation and what Kenobi had to do. doing something out of necessity is basically the exact opposite. i don't know how you gleaned arrogance out of that. being arrogant is assuming the Jedi were not a threat anymore thanks to Order 66 and assuming the clones killed the Jedi Grand Master.
@@scottb3034 the whole point of prequel Yoda is that he's wrong and it takes an almost being killed by Palpatine until he realises all his mistakes and goes into exile due to his failures Also the fights at the end of ROTS weren't a necessity, the Jedi have been destroyed, the CIS has been defeated, the Republic is now the Empire, so the Sith have already won. And all four people involved survived them All those battles accomplished were a choked Padme, a crippled Anakin and a rationalised Yoda
@@more-reasons6655 Yoda is in actuality not wrong and does not change unless you count being less strict with Luke as change. He still is a hardline that the Sith are irredeemable, that the Jedi must not have attachments, that you must be wary of the dark side or you will fall, that the Jedi are the only hope, that you must accept the loss of others, that palpatine can be defeated, that the republic can return, etc. Yoda simply lost because the cards were stacked in palpatine's deck. He had limited time, the back up was on Palpatine's side and Yoda could only kill with a lightsaber so as soon as he lost that it was over. Yoda was also in control of the fight the entire time, Palpatine was at risk of destruction not so much Yoda. The fights were necessary. The Jedi were not destroyed as evidenced by Yoda and Obi-Wan living and Luke in the OT, the CIS was not defeated since Palpatine was still alive, the Republic was still transitioning and if Palpatine the lifelong despot is defeated then the Empire is defeated and the Republic may be restored by charismatic leading figures Bail Organa and Mon Mothma.... and Padme. The Sith had not won yet, they were winning. And also, lmao acting like Padme being choked and anakin being crippled were not major, galaxy changing events that set up the Empire's later defeat.... It blows my mind that you that are deaf to it all. All of this though, doesn't explain why you can possibly still consider Yoda arrogant.
@@Thed538dhsk It's just a perfect, classic greek tragedy. And an important lesson on how to manipulate people - even a whole Republic. And ofc there are the memes.
@@AbbyJaneReacts i had a problem with it as well. i think it was darth vader at the controls by that point. accessing in his mind the demon created by the child slaying he did in a state of anger in the last film, if that makes sense
The memories of Padme that Princess Leia refers to in episode 6 are (in my opinion) of pictures. The word "images" is what Leia actually said. And the feeling of sadness she mentioned, I believe, are through the force. I've always thought that the force was strong enough in leia, that she could sense and remember her mother's sadness in the few moments they had together. But, that's the story I've always had in my head. I saw the first Star Wars in theaters in 1977 when I was just 5. So I've thought about these movies (possibly a little too much, lol) for a while. So maybe that's what she meant. But I could very well be wrong. So, have a great day and May the Force be with you!!
i can kinda understand Anakin he was taken by the jedi and he couldn’t see his mother anymore and everyone was hyping him up like he is THE chosen one and he is the greatest jedi and then he was bullied his whole childhood in the jedi temple by other jedi padawans bc he joined so late and then when he rly is powerful the council doesn’t trust him and holds him back its frustrating and losin his mother and fear of losing padme
@@juussi4318 I really wish they expanded more on this, we see his interactions with the council but we don’t see his time at the temple or his relationship with the emperor from when he was little
@@AbbyJaneReacts yeah thats kinda big problem tho you will see interactions with other jedis and with the emperor on clone wars series but not from his childhood encounters with others in the temple but there is much more to why anakin turned than just padme and you will find this out if you ever watch the clone wars series
After be burned, Vader suffered a lung damage so serious. That´s why he needed the suit (with a ventilation equipment) to breath and live. Besides, on purpose, this equpment "worked" with rage, anger and all his suffering. That´s why I told you in Episode VI that after kill the Emperor, with this ventilation destroyed and without rage and anger... he couldn´t live.
Samuel Jackson's lightsaber being purple was just his personal request. He wanted to stand out. Of course Lucas has since said oh it means such and such, but that was the original reason for it
There are two versions of Anakin's origins. The first is the one you mentioned and the second - Anakin was created by the Force itself in response to attempts of Midichlorians manipulation by the Sith.
Samuel Jackson's lightsaber is purple, amethyst if you want to get specific, not pink. Lightsaber color indicates your alignment with the force, blue means you're a defender, green means that you're a knowledge seeker, purple means you dabble in both light and dark side of the force basically and red always means dark side affiliation, there are many more colors then just these four and they all mean different things.
I've really enjoyed your reaction to this movie. To all of them. Yes, most of us watch your videos because we love the movies but we also stuck around to watch them all because of you. It's always awesome to see another person new to the franchise slowly become invested in it and then find themselves to be a fan by it's end. I hope you keep giving us more content to watch.
So your intro/opening is VERY similar to how I felt when I 1st watched these prequels. But then I watched the animated Clone Wars Series, which pretty much follows Obi and Anikan all through the years of the clone wars in between Prequel 2 and prequel 3. And it shows SO many more hints and glimpses of Anikan’s true darker side and makes this 3rd film feel much more foreshadowed 🙌🏾 ⚡️. You also see the growing tensions between the people and the Jedi. And how the Jedi don’t always make the best decisions. 🧐….Love the reactions!
I remember 6 years old me back in 2005 getting excited for Star Wars episode 3 coming home from school on a Friday afternoon going to the movie theater I was really hyped
In the novelisation it explains that the force named Anakin darth Vader. Sidious meditated on the force when a name came a name darker than the gaps between galaxys.... But Vader means Father in dutch or the absent one in latin
One interpretation as to how Anakin survived and Padme died is that Darth Sidious made good on his promise to Anakin to save others from dying. However he doesn't inform Anakin that it takes a life to save a life. So Sidious is reaching maybe his full potential as the Dark side of the Force peaks, and he takes Padme's life force so Anakin may survive the procedure that makes him more machine than man. And that is the betrayal of Anakin. His life is saved with the sacrifice of Padme. The droids don't know anything of the Force and what's happening, so they just describe it as her "losing the will to live." Sidious tells Darth Vader that in his anger, he killed her, Vader replies, "she was alive! I felt it" He doesn't mean that he felt her on Mustafar, he means he felt her while he was on the mechanic operating table. What he probably felt was her life force being put into his. That could be wrong, but it's one possibility.
Great reaction, at the end there’s a theory that the Emperor killed Padme, taking life away from her and giving it to Anakin (Vader) as they performed surgery.
yeah ive always agreed with this, its not canon but it makes total sense. The "reasons we can't explain" is obviously palpatine. Also how would palpatine know shes dead had he not killed her. He also has every motive to kill her because she is his only tie left to the light side and killing her cemented him as vader and made him forever hate himself fueling his evil.
@@carloslionel1653 "Broken heart" is really and many people die from it, it's just rarely officially diagnosed. Not everything always HAS to be "the force" in Star Wars, i feel like people want this explanation because they think the real one is just "too boring/simple". But i disagree, i think her really dying from broken heart makes the story even more tragic than just "Palpatine did some evil voodoo". Palpatine already has enough control in this story.
great reaction vids, you analyze everything you watch really well so the clone wars would be awesome to see your reactions too and would probably do well for your channel, cant blame you if you'd rather watch it in your own time though, maybe even just react to some of the big story arcs since there are definitely some standalone/ filler episodes that dont really add much, the only issue is the episodes arent in chronological order so you'd need a guide to keep track, also chewies race the wookies werent wiped out during this, they never really stopped fighting making them some of the first rebels against the empire
When anakin tells R2 to stay with the ship he stays, back in ep5 when Luke tells R2 to stay with the ship he doesn’t because the last time someone told him that they never came back
@@scottb3034 it was probably not intented at the time of ep5 but it is highly possible it was meant this way when GL wrote this scene in ep3. He built his movies around many parallels/mirror scenes.
I highly recommend if you watch more star wars films to do so in this order: Solo Rogue One Force Awakens Last Jedi Rise of Skywalker Solo and rogue one are kinda like palette cleansers before starting a new trilogy. They are kinda like side missions. Force Awakens, last jedi, and rise of Skywalker are much more connected like how the original and prequel films are. They're a trilogy. Solo and rogue one are just kinda random adventures, not part of some grand trilogy or anything. Kathleen Kennedy who was chosen by George Lucas to become the new leader while he retired was tasked to make a star wars film every year. So she would release ep 7 force awakens to continue the grand story. But then the next year she'd release just a random star wars film that is kinda easy for new fans to watch and not worry sbout watching the other previous 6-7 films. It didn't work out for her but that seemed to be her goal at first. Love your star wars journey :)
@@jamesbellefeuille2926Let me clarify, sorry. Rogue one is accessible as a standalone film. Solo and Rogue One both do connect to the original trilogy/star wars saga but what I meant was just that they aren't like ep 1-9. They are their own films that people can more easily enjoy as standalone films. But yes you are right rogue one is a very rewarding film to watch when paired with the original trilogy films even moreso imo than solo.
Regrading the colour of the lightsabers: Green, blue and purple are used by Jedis, red is used by sith. The explanation for this is that the Jedis get their cyber crystals from caves and they are purely natural. The sith put all of their hate, frustration and anger in them and make the crystal “blood” thus it is red. Mace’ saber is purple as his fighting style is a form that uses both elements: dark side as well as light side combat forms. And blue merged with red is purple.
It is important to understand. Palpatine trained him to be the evil guy. He also wanted him to reach his full potential and maybe become his successor. So he mentored him from 8 years old. He planted the dreams of Shmi and Padme. In the clone wars he sent him to places to see thing and change him. He literally orchestrated the whole Clone Wars - so I still like Anakin. Or maybe it’s just because I can see myself in him a bit😅
Forget about TCW, watch the 2003 2D micro series Clone Wars, it's like a movie between II and III and shows a natural process of the things that happen between the movies that are relevant to the bigger picture: Like Anakin's knighthood and the moment Luke and Leia were conceived (for real)
@@Thed538dhsk yeah from our seat as the viewer he's evil, but not from anyone in the Republic. They voted him in after feeling sorry for his planet being invaded by the trade federation He must have been doing a good job to be in the position for ten years before the senate gave him emergency powers (thanks Jar Jar) Then he was welcomed in with applause when he reorganised the republic into the empire
@@more-reasons6655 Yes. They trusted him and then he ended up being evil the whole time. So again, good advice in star wars to not trust old men. At least in ep 1-9
We hear his voice speaking to Rey in the last film, so... he's donzo It doesn't help that he was thrown from an obnoxiously high-building after being electrocuted for a solid 3 minutes.
@carlop.7182 no bro. That’s not quite correct. The Jedi were far harder on Anakin than they were on other trainees, because they didn’t trust him since the first day they met him.
I'm still thinking that the person who f Up the most was Yoda. Yoda felt that Anakin got sad and extremely angry when his mother died and Anakin asked Yoda for help and Yoda basically just said "deal with it and let go"
1. La La Land 2. Fall (2022) 3. She's the Man 4. Pitch Perfect Trilogy 5. The Sandlot 6. Dear John 7. The Longest Ride 8. The Best of Me 9. A Dog's Purpose/A Dogs Journey
Fun fact... That flinch reaction from the Youngling when Anakin ignited his light saber was real. When filming the scene, Hayden yelled at him to scare him and make him jump like that.
Idk how I feel about that. On 1 hand it works for the scene and does build tension well. But on the other feels like a cheap way to get a child actor to be able to act.
Same with the It film from 2017. The adults on set just kinda really scared the kids to get a reaction out of them. Imo a good director and casting director can have a child actor portray these emotions without actually having to in real life scare them or something. It's kinda different when dealing with child actors, feels a little exploitative imo vs getting an adult actor's real reaction.
That part made me so sad 🥲
@Thed538dhsk, they got paid to get midly scared. It's a w for everyone.
@@philnicholson7863 I guess. I'm torn. It fits well in the film, the kid actor did a good job but idk feels a little gross to get a child actor to act by having to actually scare them in real life. In the Alien film when the adult actor's freak out at the alien it's their genuine reaction which I'm okay with. But when it comes to kid actors I feel conflicted on if it's necessary to do that kind if thing. Obviously the kid actor in this film wasn't scared too much or put in danger so it's harmless I assume.
No matter how many times I see that scene, that kid's reaction guts me😢 his voice is so cute, as he's looking to his elder for help 😭
Padme’s dying words: ‘There is still good in him’
Anakin’s dying words: ‘You were right’

After the Jedi were declared enemies of the republic, R2 states 'the factors do not add' and when 3po asks if anakin has told him anything,R2 replies with 'No, he has completely stopped talking to me.'

This was NOT the first time Anakin killed children. It was the 2nd time.
There were definitely people crying in theaters back 2005 when Anakin exterminated all the Jedi children. Your reaction was normal seeing a once young, selfless hero turn into something evil.
Please react to Rogue One. It takes place between Episode 3 and just before Episode 4. It’s considered the finest SW film of the Disney era.
Rogue One is not good. It has one good scene and two good characters, both legacy characters.
It's a subtle detail of the second and third film, Obi-Wan and the Council are always critical of Anakin, even when it's not needed. Then the next scene is always Palpatine sneaking praise to Anakin directly, or praising him to others.
Anakin gravitated towards Palpatine, a grandfather-figure, as Obi-Wan treated Anakin like a little brother, rather than being the father figure he needed. Combine that with the Council beginning to take digs at Anakin because of their dislike of the Chancellor, while at the same time expecting Anakin to spy for them without having the courage to ask him directly, pushes a person who values loyalty in another direction. The Jedi beginning doing thing against their code, combine that with Mace openly stating he didn't trust Anakin, then trying to kill a person Anakin has no reason to distrust, is the final push into the arms of the devil.
By movie's end, Anakin is buried by anger and lies, he has no reason to live, nothing but his new identity in his mechanical prison to live on as...
Until cracks in the persona begins to form one day, when he learns of his son.
anakin wanted to be a Jedi to the very end, he saw through palpatine but chose to turn anyway because he couldn't take the risk that Palpatine DID know and he let him be eliminated.

The Clone Wars lasted three years, the same amount of time it took for this movie to release after Episode II. During those three years, Cartoon Network aired a 2D animated Clone Wars series. It shows how General Grievous "kidnapped" Palpatine and also how he got that cough.
For me, the Jedi council, pushed A LOT Anakin to the dark side. They´re afraid of him, never truly trusted him, never gave him any serious mission... and mixed with Anakin fears (mostly for Padme) and feeling himself always excluded... the final step was all the Emperor´s manipulation during years but... the Jedi Council had big part of responsibility in this disaster. Even in the last chance he said the truth to Windu. Anakin tried and tried to follow the right path, but all these things became him in Darth Vader. The Emperor was right, unfortunately, when he said something about the "dogmatic and narrow view of the Jedi". They were blinded...
Great take, and I agree, even with Yoda as my favorite character lol. The only thing is that if you watch Clone Wars we can see that the council did give Anakin tons of responsibility in leading the 501st, the notoriously strongest legion of clones. I think that's why he was so upset about not being named Master, since he was responsible for countless wins throughout the galaxy and yet they still didn't trust him. Although important to note that if he would have just listened to the Jedi code and not married Padme.... That's why its so problematic that he wasn't raised there since he was a kid. he had already felt love and attachment and couldn't align with the Jedi code... my favorite tragic and beautiful story in modern media!
all of this was a test for him to become a jedi Master, Anakin wanted the title of Master handed to him like a spoiled brat--it's not how things work.
@carlop.7182 but the thing is the Jedi council also distrusted Anakin way too abruptly, ever since Anakin was a boy even. Qui-gon Jinn was right all along when he tried to get the Jedi council to be more open minded towards Anakin. But instead they didn’t listen to Qui-gon’s wisdom, but instead judged Anakin too harshly, pushing him to him breaking point. Anakin was frustrated rightfully so because he knew the Jedi Council didn’t trust him, because they were afraid of what they sensed concerning him the day they first met him. But they failed to realize that they being so hard on him through unnecessary distrust is what made their fears become a reality. Anakin became what the Jedi made him, by quickly judging him with complete lack of trust in him from the start. Anakin wouldn’t have turned to the dark side so easily if the Jedi Council wasn’t so hard on him. And even Obi-wan at times may have been guilty of judging him so harshly too quickly at times, but ended up trying to support Anakin as much as he could; he however probably should have objected more often when the Jedi Council harshly judged Anakin.
Yoda and Obi-wan came to realize this downfall of Anakin turning to the dark side was their fault, along with most of the Jedi. The Jedi were very arrogant and ignorant on how they judged Anakin. Anakin wouldn’t have become so frustrated and angry as he became if they didn’t project their fears on him. The things they sensed about Anakin the first day they met him, those dark things came true years later because the jedi judged him so harshly. The Jedi were trying to prevent those things from becoming true, but that led them to being too hard on him to where they made come true what they were trying to prevent from coming true. Their fears caused them to judge him harshly, which they did in order to prevent him from turning, but all it did was made him turn!
This is why Yoda said, “Into exile, I must go. Failed, I have” and why Obi-wan said “I have failed you Anakin! I have failed you!” And also why ten years later he said, “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Anakin, for all of it!” Obi-wan being sorry for all of the truly unfair treatments the Jedi put him through all because they were unnecessarily afraid of him, which fear caused them to judge him so harshly, which in turn is what pushed him to the dark side. He turned because he was afraid of losing Padmé, yes, but he also turned because after everything he went through with the Jedi over the years he became convinced that the Jedi were scum or worse. And Darth Sidious played upon Anakin’s frustrations with the Jedi to manipulate him into further descending into the dark side, brainwashing him by manipulating him. The Jedi only made things easier for Darth Sidious to manipulate Anakin into turning to the dark side. Darth Sidious played upon everything: what frustrations Anakin was going through with the Jedi Council, and Anakin’s fear of losing Padmé. The Jedi were to a big degree to blame for why Anakin turned to the dark side, and that’s what Yoda and Obi-wan realized. It’s why Yoda said “Into exile, I must go. Failed, I have” and why Obi-wan said, “I have failed you, Anakin! I have failed you!” (in 19 BBY), and why Obi-wan said “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Anakin, for all of it” ten years later (in 9 BBY) in the Obi-wan Kenobi series.

@@thebosstex1172 Im not sure you understand how the Jedi work . Anakin was too old to be trained. He carried a lot of fear. He should have never been married as a jedi which created attachment which lead to fear. Anakins end result was basically predicted by Yoda.
Palpatine is like a father to Anakin, or like a grandfather, this is seen in the comics, he has always been with him since he was a child, that's why Anakin trusts him. Even what happened with his mother he told Palpatine but he didn't tell Obiwan, there you can see the difference in appreciation that Anakin has towards the Chancellor and Obiwan.

This first mission includes Anakin massacring an entire village which in the first 15 mins of ROTS we find out that Anakin told Palpatine about the massacre, proving that Anakin trust Palpatine and Padme more than any jedi
Here you realize a sad fact. When in episode V Luke said to R2 "stay with the ship", R2-D2 ignored him. Because in episode III... his master Anakin also said him "stay with the ship", and obeyed him, but his master... never came back.

@@scottb3034 that's literally accurate, the fuck you smoking
Anakin hates the Jedi Order and Council by this time: Reminder, the Jedi Council:
1. They expelled his padawan, Ahsoka, after she was framed. The Council found her guilty in a kangaroo court and put her in a military tribunal that would have guaranteed her subsequent execution. Anakin personally witnessed this, and was enraged. He scambled to prove her innocence and when he finally did, his padawan's trust in the Order and Council had been destroyed, so she left.
2. Kept him on the outside when deciding to use Obi-Wan as an undercover operative. He was gaslit and lied to for several rotations. When the truth came out, all he got from Obi-Wan and the Council was an "oops, hey it turned out okay in the end".
3. Despite his military success, he was never granted the role of Jedi Master. He thoroughly deserved it, and the only person to ever acknowledge and thus address Anakin with this title was the Chancellor himself: "I hope you have a reason for bursting in on our proceedings, Master Skywalker."
The Jedi Order was willing to hold kangaroo courts to kick out their own on favorable terms, gaslight and tear close people apart for a "mission", and didn't always give people the title they deserved. Anakin had all reason to be enraged at them all.
That says a lot about the council when they banned the grey jedi.
FROM THE MOVIE NOVEL:
This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker, forever:
The first dawn of light in your universe brings pain.
The light burns you. It will always burn you. Part of you will always lie upon black glass sand beside a lake of fire while flames chew at your flesh.
You can hear yourself breathing. It comes hard, and harsh, and it scrapes nerves already raw, but you cannot stop it. You can never stop it. You cannot even slow it down.
You don’t even have lungs anymore.
Mechanisms hardwired into your chest breathe for you. They will pump oxygen into your bloodstream forever.
"Lord Vader? Lord Vader, can you hear me?"
And you can’t, not in the way you once did. Sensors in the shell that prisons your head trickle meaning directly into your brain.
You open your scorched-pale eyes; optical sensors integrate light and shadow into a hideous simulacrum of the world around you.
Or perhaps the simulacrum is perfect, and it is the world that is hideous.
'Padme? Are you here? Are you all right?' you try to say, but another voice speaks for you, out from the vocabulator that serves you for burned-away lips and tongue and throat.
"Padme? Are you here? Are you all right?"
"I’m very sorry, Lord Vader. I’m afraid she died. It seems in your anger, you killed her."
This burns hotter than the lava had.
"No…no, it is not possible!"
You love her. You have always loved her. You could never will her death.
Never.
But you remember…
You remember all of it.
You remember the dragon that you brought Vader forth from your heart to slay. You remember the cold venom in Vader’s blood. You remember the furnace of Vader’s fury, and the black hatred of seizing her throat to silence her lying mouth…
And there is one blazing moment in which you finally understand that there was no dragon. That there was no Vader. That there was only you. Only Anakin Skywalker.
That it was all you. Is you.
Only you.
You did it.
You killed her.
You killed her because, finally, when you could have saved her, when you could have gone away with her, when you could have been thinking about her, you were thinking about yourself…
It is in this blazing moment that you finally understand the trap of the dark side, the final cruelty of the Sith -
Because now yourself is all you will ever have.
And you rage and scream and reach through the Force to crush the shadow who has destroyed you, but you are so far less now than what you were. You are more than half machine, you are like a painter gone blind, a composer gone deaf, you can remember where the power was but the power you can touch is only a memory, and so with all your world-destroying fury it is only droids around you that implode, and equipment, and the table on which you were strapped shatters, and in the end, you cannot touch the shadow.
In the end, you do not even want to.
In the end, the shadow is all you have left.
Because the shadow understands you, the shadow forgives you, the shadow gathers you unto itself-
And within your furnace heart, you burn in your own flame.
This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker.
Forever…

there is about 3 years between ep 2 & ep 3 (timeline wise). Basically the Clone Wars take place between those years and explain a lot of your questions. When it comes to lightsaber's they get their color from the kyber crystal used (in canon)... the real reason, Samuel L Jackson wanted a purple lightsaber to stand out vs the others.
Love him for that 😂
Yes he asked George Lucas if he could have a purple one so he could see himself during fight scenes unaware how his character was important... After some thought GL surprised him with his desire 😊
Anakin the GOAT
😳
He's the goat, not the GOAT.
Back in 2005 i was with my parents in cinema while watching this episode for the first time and for entire movie i was telling myself- this is how the times of dark side has started 🖤
Anakin who supposed to be chosen one while bringing balance to the force , betrayed those who believed in him for years 💔💔 it's really heartbreaking after 19 years to see how Anakin chooses the dark path that his beloved wife Padme can't follow 💔💔 it really breaks my heart too 💔💔
Also biggest pain in this movie is then Yoda himself tells Obi Wan these words - the boy you trained has been gone already 💔💔💔 thank you for the beautiful and emotional heartbeaking reaction , may the force be with you. Always ❤️
Anakin turning on his loved ones and the Dark Side so quickly has some reeasoning behind it.
1. He is still very young. He is a 23 year old forced to lead troops in a galactic wide war. He is extremely jaded and probably jumped at a solution to the war, whithout all the jedi and republics deliberating. He mentions the peace he brought a lot whily deflecting from his guilt.
2. The dark side is like a drug. Despite what Disneys films want to imply, using the Dark Side has no safe option. Even a little makes you slowly turn into a worse person. Palpatine is so effective with it because he was a born Psychopath and had no Morals that needed to deteriorate. Thats also why his face is so deformed and anakins eyes turn yellow. The Dark Side is like a drug eating away at you.
3. Anakin is even different in his speech pattern and body language after killing everyone in the Temple. He ,,blackened his Soul" by doing vile things to get a stronger connection with the dark side. Only then could he learn all those techniques.
4. He was repressing his emotions for 13 years. That is okay for regular jedi since they are raised to live that way. But Anakin wasnt. He was literaly like a Cola bottle just waiting for a Mentos to be dropped in it. That is also why after calming down and waking up in the suit, he immediatly asks after Padmes Safety. Obi Wan coming with her was the worst thing that could have happened.
I am in no way excusing his actions. He is my favourite Character in fiction, but like many who fell to the dark side its still partially his fault. He is not at fault for what life threw at him, but he is at fault for how he reacted to it.
@@anteletica1148 I mean so many of us would probably end up turning to the dark side 😂 it’s like I understand him but as the viewer knowing what we knows it was frustrating to see him do those things
@@AbbyJaneReacts Yeah most people would probably fall to it. That is why Jedi take baby of at most 3 years old. So they can be raised to live like that. And the parents get a choice whether to send their child. A lot of people nowadays try to frame the Jedi as child stealers, when thats not what George Lucas was going for. In his Interviews he makes it clear that jedi arent supposed to be relatable, that most people wouldnt be able to live like that and that it is an ideal to aspire to. The force being in balance is destroying the sith because the galaxy is in balance when people live in harmony, instead of taking for themselves. Its tragic because a lot of Sith in the Lore join the Dark Side for good intentions, but almost always lose sight of that goal or destroy what they wanted to save. The only ones who enjoy it are psychos like palpatine
@@anteletica1148to me Anakin was just what a normal kid with childhood trauma but a shit ton of talent would end up like trying to fit in within a very secular and dogmatic cult when that is not how you you were raised .
We love the Jedi , but they are A CULT of space wizard knights who worship the force and created their own STRICT code. The force didn’t create the Jedi code , the force just is.
@@ElPresidenteMargz thats not what George lucas would say. He always said that the jedi are on the right side and good. At the end they got too involved with politics after 25 000 years of good service. The Problem is that we only see the jedi at one of their low points in the movies. 1.The jedi are not a cult. Its a knight order.
2. They do not whorship the force but ally with it.
3. The force didnt need to create the jedi, since their prupose is to serve its will. The light side doestn exist. Its The Force VS The Dark Side. So the jedi serve its will and its will is to be in balance (absence of Dark).
4. He is not a normal kid with Trauma. Trauma made sure that he isnt a normal kid
@@anteletica1148 glad to see someone so knowledgeable about not only the Force but the Jedi, few get either right.
Qui Gonn spirit taught Obi Wan to become a force ghost (at the end of the movie Yoda said to Obi that someone returned from the netherworld of the force). In all those years in solitude in Tatooine Obi Wan learnt it. That´s why he told Vader in episode IV: "if you strike me down, I´ll become more powerful that you can possibly imagine".
So how did Anakin learn to do that in return of the Jedi if Yoda and obi learned it from Qui?
@@Thed538dhsk There's a theory that as Vader/Anakin was dying, Obi Wan came to him and taught him.
@@ronaldnelson6692less theory, more canonical
Anakin was taught as the moment of his death because Force-Ghosts in the current canon exist beyond time, so they can just stretch that moment as long as needed it seems.
The Kyber crystals, that power the lightsabers, are the ones that give them their colors. The red ones are artificially made by the Sith, by making a crystal "bleed", with their dark side arts.
P.S: no matter what you see in Star Wars Visions or The Acolyte, lightsabers DON'T CHANGE COLORS, depending on who's wielding it. That's a big, fat Disney lie.
It's crystal not cristal ffs.
@@iggymcgeek730 thank you
Dark side crystals are not artificially made by the Sith. They were taken from Jedi and corrupted by dark side user by bleeding.
Synthetic crystals were in old expanded universe stories and those were only some old comics but they are not canon. In canon story Palpatine teaches to Vader how to corrupt crystal of Jedi lightsabre. Vader did take lightsabre of Jedi which Vader defeated in duel. "The Saber of a Sith is not given - it is taken"
@@robotti84 I forgot to mention the Jedi part
Anakins birth was due to darth plaugius and palpatine trying to influence the midchlorions for their own power, and the force created anakin to combat this imbalance almost like a white blood cell. Anakin killed palpatine bringing balance to the force in the end he also ended the the old dogmatic jedi order.

When you got emotional (27:30) it was with a very good reason, it was the last time Obi Wan saw "Anakin" next time they saw each other he was already Vader. And I love how that scene was pictured, Obi Wan standing in the light, and Anakin in the dark.
The reason anakin is so close to palpatine is because while obi wan became a brother to anakin, palpatine groomed him to allow himself to become anakins father figure that he always needed. Notice palpatine call anakin “son” 19:30
Star Wars should had been called "The Tragedy of Anakin Skywalker".
The beginning of the downfall of Anakin was how he was taken from his mother in the first Star Wars movie, I mean; in the republic the Jedi were identified at very early age, however the practical means by which they were incorporated into the academy were a lot more considerate, .. although he was freed by the deal Ben Kenobi’s teacher (Qui gon Jinn) made with Watto, .. it was way he was freed, and the circumstance, .. to take this child away from his mother in such a way began the unreconcilable ripples within the force!! picked up on within Jedi council session via Yoda & Mace windu, these ripples intensified during Anakin’s enrolment and early training, causing slight contempt for the council, and especially when learning they’re trust in him wasn’t sincere because of his force abilities.
So in conclusion the Jedi order actually helped with the early stages of Vader’s creation not only by principle but more so practice
In light of episode III Palpatine was controlling nearly everything!! however slight/subtle his manipulation of Anakin was nothing short of perfect, again based upon the vacuum in his life of no parents, although Ben Kenobi was like a father figure to him, His loyalty was first to the council which was also an underline problem between them, so in many respects Anakin felt alone, and it was the subtle encouragement of the chancellor (Palpatine) to engage and continue in exploring his passion and of course personal needs .. enter Padme, so I’m certainly in the understanding that he also arranged for her to have lesser role in politics as to be able to submerge into a more secretive relationship with Anakin, all the while slowly edging him more and more to the chancellors wishes.
It is underlying not underline ffs.
The road to hell is often paved with good intentions. It was a self fulfilling prophecy and the more he tried to save Padmé the more he lost her
53:47 This specific shot was inspired by the painting where Jacob was "wrestling" with God. The movements are the same. It perfectly describes Anakin's story. His dark side conflicting with his light. And the mental struggle of his childhood trauma affecting his current life. It all started when he lost his mother.
@@sourcesymbiosismetamorphis2228 it was such a cool shot!
@AbbyJaneReacts yeah there's also another close up shot where anakin is colliding his hand with obi wants and they both try to force push each other while standing still, that shot is inspired by a famous painting where lucifer is staring menacingly while a single tear drops from his eye look up anakin Skywalker lucifer crying painting on Google images you'll see the parallel.

This one made me a Star Wars fan! 🔥 keep grinding bud! 🙏🏼
Clone Wars is probably the best thing that has happened to Star Wars. For me, it's just as important as 3 and 5 are.
Greatest Star Wars media by a mile!!
I'm so glad you clarified in the first few seconds of this video. I was like "You started watching Star Wars on Revenge of the Sith!?" That's such a wild spot to start. lol.
The tragedy of Anakin is that he never wanted to be bad, but his fear got the best of him.
You mentioned Anakin’s new scar, and also noted General Grievous’ coughing. If you really want to know what those are actually all about, I suggest watching Genndy Tartakovsky’s “Clone Wars.” Now, to be clear, this is NOT the Clone Wars series you’re thinking of. It was an officially sanctioned series of 15-minute short cartoons that aired on Cartoon Network over the weeks leading up to the premiere of “Revenge of the Sith” in theaters. This was THE official “Clone Wars” until Disney decided to declare it to be no longer canon because they wanted to make their own much longer Clone Wars series. But George Lucas worked directly with Genndy Tartakovsky on the cartoons, and they made “Revenge of the Sith” such that, if you didn’t see Tartakovsky’s cartoons then you didn’t know the backstory on several elements that were present in “Revenge of the Sith.” The cartoons conclude with General Grievous kidnapping Chancellor Palpatine, and with the reason that Grievous is now coughing; and the last frame of the cartoon is literally the first frame of “Revenge of the Sith” (kind of like how “Rogue One” leads directly into Episode IV).
It will surely take awhile for you to react to the entire Clone Wars tv show, but it is absolutely worth the watch, and is certainly not "just a kids show" as some may dismiss it, despite being designed/broadcast to a younger target audience, the show is still full of dark and interesting themes/content, and adds a ton of context that really makes future re-watches of the movies so much more impactful, especially as it really draws out and shows the more realistic and slow descent of Anakin into a darker and darker mentality that makes his eventual turn so much more believable. So much so that many fans don't even really blame him much for being so receptive to Palpatine's manipulation. As many others have surely said, Anakin's relationship with the Jedi themselves is certainly a major factor that isn't really shown much in the movies, but makes for a great watch in the Show. If you do end up reacting to the show I will certainly be willing to watch patiently, as will many others I'm sure :)
When Padme was buried, you can see the huge belly. They tried to cheat the Emperor, looking like she had died pregnant.
@@domingocurbelomorales8635 I did notice that but I though it might be because she died straight after so her belly was still big
Bellies after pregnancies remain big but slowly shorten down over time after child birth. But because Padmé died right after, her belly won’t shrink back down. Her body will just decay in the coffin over in the mausoleum.
They didn't fake Padme's stomach. She died seconds after giving birth. Honestly if you think women just loose all that weight the second they give birth you should speak to your sisters or mum more
It takes days for their hormones to reshape their bellies after pregnancy and even longer for twins
@@more-reasons6655 The reason why people think this way isn't because they think that bellies shrink instantly, but rather that funerals usually don't occur on the day of the individual's passing
Now, granted, it still would take longer than a week for the pregnancy belly to fully go away, which usually exceeds the time waited before a funeral service occurred, but since Padmé is a beloved political figure it's not unreasonable for someone watching the first time to assume it would be delayed a bit longer so that everyone who wants to attend can clear their schedule
@@KidPrarchord95 I'd completely agree with you if this was one of those rare circumstances where the person who's funeral it is is still alive
The thing is, the movies don't really go into why Anakin trusts Palpatine so much. Basically, Palpatine had been grooming him ever since Anakin was a child and first came to Coruscant (where the Jedi temple is located). To Anakin, Palpatine is a mentor and trusted friend - however strange that may seem to outsiders.
Palpatine knew how Anakin came to be after meeting him for the first time (birthed by the force), because it had something to do with his own Sith master, and decided early on that he wanted Anakin as his apprentice. Palpatine played 4D-chess against everyone, and won.
@@vicolin6126 he really did
Anakin isn't wrong in feeling that the Jedi were conspiring against him and that they did not trust him, in fact the majority of the Jedi Order were quite open in their dislike and hostility towards him; something that made it very difficult for Obi-Wan whom himself went from "don't disagree with the Council again" to "the Council is asking this, not me" which is enormous for someone born, raised, and indoctrinated from day one. Anakin's access to the Jedi Archives, the Training Rooms, and the Holocrons (Ancient Jedi that made a teaching A.I. called a Gatekeeper using the Force to create an imprint of themselves/their knowledge) were at the same level as the average fourteen year old Padawan while he was a Knight in the Order, a General in the GAR, and had been doing missions for the Jedi since he was nine back to back fixing the leaks in the Republic while the causes of the problem were ignored by the Jedi/Republic entirely yet wouldn't allow any criticism or suggestions. He was an unwanted savior created by and sent to them by the Force which they, on the whole, felt was unnecessary and unneeded; that they were perfectly fine on their own and were correct about everything.
The rank of Jedi Master comes with unlimited access to all of that. He was taught the very, very basics of lightsaber combat and the Force yet his first Force Push had more power than any five Jedi Masters (save Yoda, Fisto, and Windu) at 10 years old despite having had little practice and barely any training. They knew if he was allowed access to the same knowledge as others his age, he'd genuinely rival Yoda before he was legally allowed to drink. He was genuinely treated as a slave; told where to go, what to do, forbidden from speaking most of the tiime, forbidden from showing emotions, forbidden from any real relationships, and was one wrong move from life in a secret Jedi Prison without possibility of either parole or a trial. He can't leave when he wants to, unlike some Jedi, as he was "too dangerous to be outside of Jedi custody". So he fixed their problems without thanks or rewards, covered up corruption or was told to outright go along with it/ignore it, had to turn away from those in need (the entire reason he wanted to be a Jedi), served a government incapable of fulfilling its most basic duties while most politicians engaged in slavery or some sort of business with the Hutts, allowed "indentured servitude", and plainly did not work at all, a Republic he was not allowed Citizenship in and didn't believe in.
Then he's told to fight their wars, to lead armies on hellish planets, and ordered to do things against the Jedi Code over and over again while he was betrayed by them or had the closest people to him betrayed by the Order without hesitation while being explicitly lied to. He's saved entire quadrants of the galaxy and most of the Jedi Order's lives by this point, never allowed a break or a vacation and still expected to be completely obedient while being treated with blatant disrespect, distrust, and alienation with subpar training from his older brother figure whom was directly ordered to hold back on teaching the boy any skills within the Force even in the middle of war. On top of it all, he is kept severely isolated with most communications either "unavailable" or heavily monitored when available.
I'd be pissed off, too. The Jedi no longer served the Force or its Will and had abandoned all independance in favor of complete reliance upon an undeniably failed and corrupted government that they used the Force to prop up as it continuously gets worse over the centuries; weaker and weaker until the only reason the Hutts did not conqueor it was Sith shenagens and because they did not have to do so...because they already owned the majority of its most powerful sectors through their senators. The Sith won a thousand years earlier, all they had to do was wait for it all to fall apart on its own.
Beautifully said ❤
@@tanahtall384 Thank you!

The Sith planned this for hundreds of years, it's the sole reason why the rule of two exists - to strike the Jedi from the shadows while guaranteeing that every generation of Sith is more powerful and/or more ruthless than the previous one. And Palpatine is the one who gained enough power to finally execute this plan.
"Should I watch Clone Wars"
Palpatine: Do it.
It's pronounced "DEWIT!"
Purple lightsaber is like a mix between light & dark. Plus, Mace Windu has it, because Samuel L. Jackson requested to have a purple lightsaber, because purple is his favorite color.
Palpatine names Vader from the force, Anakin is given the name Vader as a short form of "Invader", similar to Palpatine's sith name Sidious short for him being "Insidious".
"what are they watching?" In darth plaeguis's tale scene.

The Fifth Element!
This film is set 3 years after the last
Lightsaber colors and there meanings:
Blue: Focuses on lightsaber combat more than the force
Green: Focuses on the force more than lightsaber combat
Purple: Is able to tap into the dark side as a Jedi while still being a Jedi (Mace Windu is the only user, he created this style)
Red: Used by Sith
Some lore: The reason Jedi have multi color lightsabers and the sith only have Red is because Blue, Green, Purple, and so on kyber crystals (what's inside a lightsaber/powers it) are all natural and are on the planet Illum. The Jedi have control over Illum so naturally the Sith can't access it without taking it over so instead they created synthetic kyber crystals which are red.
the clones wars cartoon is kind of an anthology, where there are 2-3 episodes together in a mini arcs. Episodes across the entire series aren't even really linear in the timeline.
You can do a bit of research and really pick and choose what to watch. There are definitely skippable episodes, and some that are more "must watch".
This is such a good movie and there are a tons of great moments in it. It's my 2nd favourite in the series between Empire Strikes back and Rouge One. Your frustration throughout the movie was really sweet and super relatable, that's exactly how all of us felt. Anakin should never have been raised as a Jedi. They usually take the kids very early on, as soon as they show signs of being Force Sensitive so they're pretty much in "pristine" condition emotionally. They dont even remember who their parents were. Anakin was heavily traumatized by the time he started his training, he and his mother was sold as a slave plus I imagine he has seen some nasty stuff on Tatooine as a child. During his entire time in a Jedi temple everyone was telling him he is the Chosen One, so by the time the Clone Wars starts he developed a solid God complex so obviously his ego was hurt every time they treated him as a padawan. Things just escalated rapidly from there. He lost his Mom, he massacred the Tuskens, his hormons are all around the place as a teenager, he is literally a soldier in a war and commanding hundreds of clone troopers, hiding his relationship with Padme building up a considerable amount of guilt over that and the whole time Palpatine was manipulating him, being a father figure to him, a father he never had. Really sad but very nicely done character arc. ( Clone Wars adds a LOT of context to it, you should watch it )
Few answers to your questions:
Leia's memories about her Mom is a plothole, dont mind it.
Vader means Father in Dutch so Palpatine apparently of Dutch origin lol. ( Thats where Lucas got the name from ).
You've guessed it right that Darth Plagueis was Palpatine's master. The Sith has been working on this plan for over a thousand years, slowly moving the pieces into position, taking over mega-corporations to gain influence over key assets, orchestrating conflicts and smaller wars to create the political situations to have the results they wanted and slowly push the Galaxy towards and all out war. His master died ( Palpatine killed him ) during the events of the Phantom Menace. I highly recommend to read or listen to the audiobook version the novel called Darth Plagueis if you are interested, its pretty good they've done some wild stuff. In lights of what I know of Plagueis I believe Palpatine was using some sort of Sith Magic to keep Anakin's alive and somehow used Padme to do that. They already had a very strong emotional connection and he used the Force to connect with her like he said, he felt that she was still alive.
The Wookies as you know are extremely strong sentient creatures so the Empire basically enslaved their world and use them as a slave workforce all around the Galaxy.
The rewatch value of this movie is pretty high, there are so many neat little thing to appreciate. Here is a few:
When Anakin said to Palpatine about Obi-Wan that his fate will be the same as ours. All three of them died on a Death Star.
The lava planet called Mustafar and that is where Vader will build his castle and that will be his "home" where he retreats. Mustafar is originated from the muslim name Mustafa which means Chosen One.
During the Order 66 scene the Jedi with the pointy head ( Ki-Adi Mundi ) was not killed by the clones. He sensed that the clones were turning against him, so he turned around to face them and deflected all their shots. He was killed by the droids from behind.
In my opinion you should watch the Clone Wars, its some of the very best Star Wars stories out there. The animation style in the first 2 seasons are pretty rough ( they had no animation department so they were figuring out from the basics ) and some of the stories a aimed towards children but by season 3 it gets really good and the themes become way more adult and really dark at times. You could bunch them up in packs of 3-6 per video so it would not take as long to get through them, but they're really worth a watch they add a lot of context to the movies and they're a lot of fun.
General grievous became a cyborg after nearly dying from an explosion, that’s why he has ‘human eyes’ His species was not human tho
There is a theory that explains very well how Padme's death occurred. It is so compelling and logical that it makes a lot of sense to many. The theory says that it is actually Sidious who kills her through Sith magic, the emperor knew a lot about that, it is through the necklace that Anakin gave him, that Sidious was able to kill her by cursing the necklace and draining her life force through it. That's why Sidious knew she was dead, he felt her through the force and blamed Anakin for that so he would feel guilty, leading him more to the dark side and so he could manipulate Anakin better. It makes sense because it's in the same moment Padme died, Vader was born. Actually if you think about it ,Vader could not exist with Padme alive since she would never approve Dark Anakin and making him return to the light side and escaping Sidious's clutches. The emperor knew this perfectly well so he made sure that Padme died.
Yess pls react to clone wars 😮
If she's going to do clone wars her mods or editors need to give her a condensed watch list. No way she's sitting down for what like 400 episodes at this point.
theres like 120 episodes or something but they are all 20 mins
Clone Wars is 80-90% filler so definitely just watch the important arcs.
@@TheN9nth I disagree
11:30 - Jedi commonly have blue or green lightsabers and rarely other colors (Yellow is uncommon, and stuff like Orange, Purple, etc. are very rare) but there are reasons Jedi are picked certain colors for their first lightsaber depending on their Jedi traits/proficiencies. Mace Windu had a purple lightsaber since the actor, Samuel L. Jackson, loved purple and requested it. Dark side users like the Sith have red lightsabers since [backlore info in Disney canon] the power of the dark side can "bleed" a lightsaber red.
"According to the American Heart Association (AHA), broken heart syndrome, or takotsubo cardiomyopathy, is a reaction your heart has to a surge of stress hormones caused by an emotionally stressful event. Broken heart syndrome causes the heart to stop operating normally, resulting in heart failure."
Yes, it's hilarious how the Star Wars fanbase comes up with any forms of dark force manipulation by Palpatine just because they don't know the broken heart syndrome is real.
Thanks for sharing your experience! It's always a treat to get to watch the movies through the lens of a first time viewer.
@@TimProVision it was a fun experience!
Yoda - just strolls into the big bad guys front room
Abby - "Yoda is the least arrogant guy ever"
Yoda has just experienced the downfall of the jedi and all he knows is that him and Obiwan survived, then as a hail mary he sends the last two keepers of the peace to fight against the sith with no thought about what would happen to the galaxy if they fail
If that isn't arrogance i don't know what is
Being arrogant and being confident are two VERY different things lol
that isn't arrogance at all.... he did what he had to do in that situation and what Kenobi had to do. doing something out of necessity is basically the exact opposite. i don't know how you gleaned arrogance out of that.
being arrogant is assuming the Jedi were not a threat anymore thanks to Order 66 and assuming the clones killed the Jedi Grand Master.
@@scottb3034 the whole point of prequel Yoda is that he's wrong and it takes an almost being killed by Palpatine until he realises all his mistakes and goes into exile due to his failures
Also the fights at the end of ROTS weren't a necessity, the Jedi have been destroyed, the CIS has been defeated, the Republic is now the Empire, so the Sith have already won. And all four people involved survived them
All those battles accomplished were a choked Padme, a crippled Anakin and a rationalised Yoda
@@more-reasons6655 Yoda is in actuality not wrong and does not change unless you count being less strict with Luke as change. He still is a hardline that the Sith are irredeemable, that the Jedi must not have attachments, that you must be wary of the dark side or you will fall, that the Jedi are the only hope, that you must accept the loss of others, that palpatine can be defeated, that the republic can return, etc.
Yoda simply lost because the cards were stacked in palpatine's deck. He had limited time, the back up was on Palpatine's side and Yoda could only kill with a lightsaber so as soon as he lost that it was over. Yoda was also in control of the fight the entire time, Palpatine was at risk of destruction not so much Yoda.
The fights were necessary. The Jedi were not destroyed as evidenced by Yoda and Obi-Wan living and Luke in the OT, the CIS was not defeated since Palpatine was still alive, the Republic was still transitioning and if Palpatine the lifelong despot is defeated then the Empire is defeated and the Republic may be restored by charismatic leading figures Bail Organa and Mon Mothma.... and Padme. The Sith had not won yet, they were winning.
And also, lmao acting like Padme being choked and anakin being crippled were not major, galaxy changing events that set up the Empire's later defeat.... It blows my mind that you that are deaf to it all.
All of this though, doesn't explain why you can possibly still consider Yoda arrogant.

rogue 1 next baby!
The memories of Padme that Princess Leia refers to in episode 6 are (in my opinion) of pictures. The word "images" is what Leia actually said. And the feeling of sadness she mentioned, I believe, are through the force. I've always thought that the force was strong enough in leia, that she could sense and remember her mother's sadness in the few moments they had together. But, that's the story I've always had in my head. I saw the first Star Wars in theaters in 1977 when I was just 5. So I've thought about these movies (possibly a little too much, lol) for a while. So maybe that's what she meant. But I could very well be wrong. So, have a great day and May the Force be with you!!
i can kinda understand Anakin he was taken by the jedi and he couldn’t see his mother anymore and everyone was hyping him up like he is THE chosen one and he is the greatest jedi and then he was bullied his whole childhood in the jedi temple by other jedi padawans bc he joined so late and then when he rly is powerful the council doesn’t trust him and holds him back its frustrating and losin his mother and fear of losing padme
@@juussi4318 I really wish they expanded more on this, we see his interactions with the council but we don’t see his time at the temple or his relationship with the emperor from when he was little
@@AbbyJaneReacts yeah thats kinda big problem tho you will see interactions with other jedis and with the emperor on clone wars series but not from his childhood encounters with others in the temple but there is much more to why anakin turned than just padme and you will find this out if you ever watch the clone wars series
@@AbbyJaneReacts The Clone Wars shows this more. The Jedi Council are jerks in my opinion.
After be burned, Vader suffered a lung damage so serious. That´s why he needed the suit (with a ventilation equipment) to breath and live. Besides, on purpose, this equpment "worked" with rage, anger and all his suffering. That´s why I told you in Episode VI that after kill the Emperor, with this ventilation destroyed and without rage and anger... he couldn´t live.
Samuel Jackson's lightsaber being purple was just his personal request. He wanted to stand out. Of course Lucas has since said oh it means such and such, but that was the original reason for it
There are two versions of Anakin's origins. The first is the one you mentioned and the second - Anakin was created by the Force itself in response to attempts of Midichlorians manipulation by the Sith.
When you asked why is Padme dying? She died of a broken heart which is actually very possible for a person/pet to die of in the real world... 💔
Samuel Jackson's lightsaber is purple, amethyst if you want to get specific, not pink. Lightsaber color indicates your alignment with the force, blue means you're a defender, green means that you're a knowledge seeker, purple means you dabble in both light and dark side of the force basically and red always means dark side affiliation, there are many more colors then just these four and they all mean different things.
But after a bit you get into Disney meanings and so piss on those.
Yellow is complete balance in the force
I've really enjoyed your reaction to this movie. To all of them. Yes, most of us watch your videos because we love the movies but we also stuck around to watch them all because of you. It's always awesome to see another person new to the franchise slowly become invested in it and then find themselves to be a fan by it's end. I hope you keep giving us more content to watch.
@@Novaximus 😊🫶🏻
So your intro/opening is VERY similar to how I felt when I 1st watched these prequels. But then I watched the animated Clone Wars Series, which pretty much follows Obi and Anikan all through the years of the clone wars in between Prequel 2 and prequel 3. And it shows SO many more hints and glimpses of Anikan’s true darker side and makes this 3rd film feel much more foreshadowed 🙌🏾 ⚡️. You also see the growing tensions between the people and the Jedi. And how the Jedi don’t always make the best decisions. 🧐….Love the reactions!
Hope you feel better soon!
Thank you!

Best of the prequels lol.
In the novelisation it explains that the force named Anakin darth Vader. Sidious meditated on the force when a name came a name darker than the gaps between galaxys....
But Vader means Father in dutch or the absent one in latin
Anakin did bring balance to the force. Two Jedi, Yoda and Ben. Two Sith, Sideous and Anakin.
that's not what Balance is and that's been explained time and time again.
@@scottb3034 That is not what the Jedi thought was balance. It might not be what the Sith expected, either. It is a form of balance, though.
@@cayreet5992 that is not balance to the Force, as the OP stated
Balance in the Force means no dark side users, Sith or otherwise. It is most assuredly not a balance between light side and dark side.
The use of both darkness and light is the true balance in the force.
Neither Jedi nor Sith but a combination of both.
One interpretation as to how Anakin survived and Padme died is that Darth Sidious made good on his promise to Anakin to save others from dying. However he doesn't inform Anakin that it takes a life to save a life. So Sidious is reaching maybe his full potential as the Dark side of the Force peaks, and he takes Padme's life force so Anakin may survive the procedure that makes him more machine than man. And that is the betrayal of Anakin. His life is saved with the sacrifice of Padme. The droids don't know anything of the Force and what's happening, so they just describe it as her "losing the will to live." Sidious tells Darth Vader that in his anger, he killed her, Vader replies, "she was alive! I felt it" He doesn't mean that he felt her on Mustafar, he means he felt her while he was on the mechanic operating table. What he probably felt was her life force being put into his. That could be wrong, but it's one possibility.
Great reaction, at the end there’s a theory that the Emperor killed Padme, taking life away from her and giving it to Anakin (Vader) as they performed surgery.
@@carloslionel1653 thank you!
yeah ive always agreed with this, its not canon but it makes total sense. The "reasons we can't explain" is obviously palpatine. Also how would palpatine know shes dead had he not killed her. He also has every motive to kill her because she is his only tie left to the light side and killing her cemented him as vader and made him forever hate himself fueling his evil.
@@Drehehehehaw Exactly, best explanation.
@@carloslionel1653 "Broken heart" is really and many people die from it, it's just rarely officially diagnosed. Not everything always HAS to be "the force" in Star Wars, i feel like people want this explanation because they think the real one is just "too boring/simple".
But i disagree, i think her really dying from broken heart makes the story even more tragic than just "Palpatine did some evil voodoo". Palpatine already has enough control in this story.
Anakin’s Lightsaber was still blue, because the blue Kyber Crystal hasn’t been touched by evil yet.
great reaction vids, you analyze everything you watch really well so the clone wars would be awesome to see your reactions too and would probably do well for your channel, cant blame you if you'd rather watch it in your own time though, maybe even just react to some of the big story arcs since there are definitely some standalone/ filler episodes that dont really add much, the only issue is the episodes arent in chronological order so you'd need a guide to keep track, also chewies race the wookies werent wiped out during this, they never really stopped fighting making them some of the first rebels against the empire
Padme: "There is good in him... I know there's still..."
Luke: "I can feel the good in you, the conflict..."
Anakin: "You were right..."
def react to the Clone Wars, Rebels etc if your into it
The reason why Mace Windu has a purple lightsaber is because its his actor’s favourite color and he asked George Lucas for it.
And because it would be easy for Samuel L Jackson to locate himself in the arena fight amidst all the blue and green sabers.
When anakin tells R2 to stay with the ship he stays, back in ep5 when Luke tells R2 to stay with the ship he doesn’t because the last time someone told him that they never came back
R2 is too sweet 😭😭😭💔💔💔
that is not accurate since Empire Strikes Back was made....oh 25 years before Episode III. It is just a nice fan explanation with no basis in reality.
@@scottb3034 it was probably not intented at the time of ep5 but it is highly possible it was meant this way when GL wrote this scene in ep3. He built his movies around many parallels/mirror scenes.
@@AMR-327 maybe
I highly recommend if you watch more star wars films to do so in this order:
Solo
Rogue One
Force Awakens
Last Jedi
Rise of Skywalker
Solo and rogue one are kinda like palette cleansers before starting a new trilogy. They are kinda like side missions. Force Awakens, last jedi, and rise of Skywalker are much more connected like how the original and prequel films are. They're a trilogy. Solo and rogue one are just kinda random adventures, not part of some grand trilogy or anything. Kathleen Kennedy who was chosen by George Lucas to become the new leader while he retired was tasked to make a star wars film every year. So she would release ep 7 force awakens to continue the grand story. But then the next year she'd release just a random star wars film that is kinda easy for new fans to watch and not worry sbout watching the other previous 6-7 films. It didn't work out for her but that seemed to be her goal at first. Love your star wars journey :)
Thank you! I was wondering in what order to watch the next films :)
Rogue one is one of the best star wars movies
@@AbbyJaneReacts Rogue One describes the events immediately before Episode 4 A New Hope and is not a random adventure like Solo.
@@jamesbellefeuille2926Let me clarify, sorry. Rogue one is accessible as a standalone film. Solo and Rogue One both do connect to the original trilogy/star wars saga but what I meant was just that they aren't like ep 1-9. They are their own films that people can more easily enjoy as standalone films. But yes you are right rogue one is a very rewarding film to watch when paired with the original trilogy films even moreso imo than solo.
Regrading the colour of the lightsabers: Green, blue and purple are used by Jedis, red is used by sith. The explanation for this is that the Jedis get their cyber crystals from caves and they are purely natural. The sith put all of their hate, frustration and anger in them and make the crystal “blood” thus it is red. Mace’ saber is purple as his fighting style is a form that uses both elements: dark side as well as light side combat forms. And blue merged with red is purple.
Just watched this on patreon. But i will give you an extra view on youtube😂
@@PedranZ appreciate it 😂
Darth=Dark, Vader is Dutch for Father. Darth Vader = Dark Father. The Dutch should have known back when Star Wars first debuted in the cinemas.
Watch the Obi wan series next
It is important to understand. Palpatine trained him to be the evil guy. He also wanted him to reach his full potential and maybe become his successor. So he mentored him from 8 years old. He planted the dreams of Shmi and Padme. In the clone wars he sent him to places to see thing and change him. He literally orchestrated the whole Clone Wars - so I still like Anakin. Or maybe it’s just because I can see myself in him a bit😅
Forget about TCW, watch the 2003 2D micro series Clone Wars, it's like a movie between II and III and shows a natural process of the things that happen between the movies that are relevant to the bigger picture: Like Anakin's knighthood and the moment Luke and Leia were conceived (for real)
yes the better show
“He didn’t do anything too bad” he slaughtered a village😂😭
