@@TMicHell I swear I'm not looking for them, i follow this guy ever since his Dooku video and Grievous just happens to be my favourite character If its any consolation I was ok with the use of 03 Grievous in this vid, once you pair it with the personality, voice and history of canon Grievous it really does feel like the same character now
@@kyrios443well in the 2003 animation he was much more coordinated with his strikes, even using his feet to hold the saber. Honestly would only need one light saber to win the fights that he’s in when battling in the 2008 and forward.
Ngl the only gripe I have is the repetitive laughing, I was genuinely concerned for his mind when he kept laughing for no reason, like bro did not laugh THAT much.
@@kingnova6408 He's talking about all the escaping But honestly when you go against people who can crush you with their minds escaping when at a disadvantage is the smart thing to do 03 Grievous was taught that, but he didn't listen and as a result he got his cape tied to a train and his chest crushed
@@kingnova6408 not talking down Grievous since he’s more or less my favorite character out of Star Wars but he’s always been a coward even measured by most Sith standards. But that also made him a very strong fighter/ Jedi killer since he didn’t care about honor or fighting rules unlike other Lightsaber users. He often ran away once he saw his plan failed, used droids to attack unsuspecting enemies in a 1 vs 1 and often used traps. It’s not really canon anymore but in the legends canon it’s been said that when they transformed him into a cyborg they removed the honor of his original species out of his brain so he’d become a more cunning fighters and he’s even up there as one of Palpetine‘s favorite Subordinates due to him valuing killing Jedi over honor and prestige (which on the other side is the reason that Dooku hates him)
The irony of the Grievous’ line, ‘The future, a future where there are no Jedi!’ is that ultimately he got what he wanted, but by the time that happened, he was already dead.
Grievous and Darth Vader are both perfect examples of demons that the Jedi Order themselves created. Both Qymen and Anakin seeked help to only be shunned away and return as Grievous and Darth Vader, bringing an end to the Order with their revenge
anakins choices were his own. he was not shunned by the order there really isn’t any proof of that in canon. hes is actually complimented multiple times in canon by various jedi masters. they have a pretty good amount of respect for him. also blaming the jedi for their own genocide is a little weird
Imagine if we get a series focusing on Grievous tragic backstory, if for nothing else then at least for this guy to make a sick edit that will make us feel bad for him and cry. Masterful editing.
I'm so glad Tales of the Empire remembered that Grievous has two additional arms. Who expects a third lightsaber to pop out of nowhere and stab you in the gut while you're busy blocking the other two? No one and it's a shame they've only used that trick (to my knowledge) twice in canon.
Ye it’s kinda frustrating watching TCW, when greivous beats Obi-wan in a duel but then loses the fight because obi-wan isn’t allowed to die or be injured.
Yknow, ironically, Grevious was a lot closer to getting what he wanted than he ever realized. "A future where there are no jedi". Sure he wasn't ALIVE to see that future, but he was always a tool to that cause, and he played his part. His efforts resulted in the death of almost all the jedi. I mean, it seems obvious, but it's pretty interesting that he techinically got what he wanted, it just cost him his own life and he never got to see it.
1:13 "I do not care about your politics. I do not care about your ... republic. I only live to see you die." Favourite line from Grievous. I love how he "hesitate" before saying republic, like it's disguting to call this thing a "republic". He don't see this system like a republic.
Finally one of the great editors made a tribute dedicating to the character known as General Grievous. I know Grievous has one of the most smallest screen times in the series as a character and that has little shed in the story and impact of their character in Star Wars. They need to make a Grievous movie or show man, his story is so tragic and sad. It’s his turn for the spotlight. Anakin, Luke, and even Boba had their time
The General Grievous is my favorite character of Star Wars. You have created a master piece using your amazing ability to editing. Just amazing bro 💪🙈🔥⚔️
Honestly I think this is my favourite video you ever made. I have watched it at least 25 times now... The ambiance, the lines, the threat... Everything make it perfection.
This is one of your best. Putting “you must break them before you engage them” over grievous’s “improvements” is genius, implying he has to break himself as well
General Grievous is my favourite character in all of Star Wars. I love his design, his Legends story & just how cool & scary he is. This is a really nice edit, thanks!
This General Grievous tribute was beautiful, epic, and quite scary. I loved that this features clips of his appearances in the 2003 CW series, ROTS, TCW, and TOTE.
This is by far the best edit of General Grievous I’ve ever seen. They need to make a prequel show of him before his cybernetic enhancements and leading up to the battle of Geonosis when he made his first Jedi kill
In Battlefront 2 he has a line in wich he says "I have toppled Nations. I have slain Kings. I have murdered Legends. This would've perfectly fit in this Edit.
Crazy how this franchise created the single coolest character in history and then barely did anything with him :( Still my favorite SW character though! And this edit reminds me of how much potential he had, and how awesome he is despite the lack of screentime. Chills from this
The editing of all the general grievous scenes was perfect! It’s literally an intro for the character in trailer form if you think about this Lucas film needs passionate talented creators like you in on staff!
You know, everyone here in the comments saying about Grievous spinoff show or movie. But I thought about a different thing. Imagine a videogame, where you have to play as General Grievous during Clone Wars and your primary objective is hunt down all Jedis. Damn, that even could be even cooler, if there will be playable Necrosis, aka that droid builded out of Grievous body from Legends, but with different story where he was restored by The Empire, and still have to hunt down Jedis, but after Order 66. That would be awesome.
That fool held me back I am a better emperor than him. We could have won that war but no just because he was a weak coward not willing to show the full force of the C.I.S. and the power we could have took from those jedi slugs
Honestly, seeing a grievous origin spinoff would be dope. We got Andor, which is how someone becomes more and more hatefull of the empire. I'd like to see this on a villain. Grievous backstory is tragic, it's got heartbreak, genocide and betrayal. All the good stuffs.
Great Video! i Shazamed the music (song identified) and it’s “City of Machines” for those who are curious about it. song is very fitting for General Grievous and the Droid Army i also love the fact you showed all 4 versions of him: Tales of the Empire, Clone Wars, 2003 CW, and Live Action. well done
The move where he spins his lightsabers in front of him is like so terrefying bc you cant shoot him he blocks it and same with your lightsaber and he slices the ground like its butter
“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.” ― Sun tzu, The Art of War
“Jedi! You are surrounded, your armies decimated. Make peace with the Force now, for this is your Final Battle! But know that I, General Grievous, am not completely without mercy - I will grant you a warriors death. PREPARE!!” I have this memorized at this point, he was such a great character in the 2003 movies and in the clone wars episodes.
I think that General Grievous is one of the most underrated charactere in the entire Star Wars cannon lore. As he said, he is thegeneral of the most biggest and powerful droid army the galaxy has ever seen, if Grievous wasn't part of Darth Sidious's plan he could have been one of the best villain in Star Wars. + his story is really good if you look into it.
Grievous is the best example of simple evil in star wars. His motives and reasoning are so simple that it makes it hard to really associate with him for the most part. It also makes it easy to admire him for his pure ruthlessness and skill, even if that entails committing horrible acts. He is cool for the same reason he is evil. He just is
@@steamytree7951 oh ok when I read your comment and saw you referring to him as a example of simple evil I had to disagree as without a doubt while evil he is a more complex evil in a similar vein to Anakin not simply evil for evils sake
He really is one if the rarest non-force sensitive fighters who would fight against the Jedi like that. And he was soooo close to having the future where there are no jedi. Huge respect to this general and huge respect to SWFT

General Grievous, one of the most powerful and ruthless generals in Star Wars
I am the best general
“I have toppled nations. I have slain kings. I HAVE MURDERED LEGENDS!!!”
Murder?? Is it murder to rid the galaxy of you JEDI, FILTH.
I love that everybody is doing fan animations and stuff of General Grievous after his appearance in Tales of the Empire

But he uses 4 arms quite regularly (spin me right round baby right round intensifies)

Awesome !
I'm glad to see an edit about one of my favourite character.
I love grievous and i wan't him back to his true power ;-;
Grievous, the best Warlord.
He got what he wanted in a twist way
If I was still alive in the movies I could've took out Rey and all those fools with plot armor
This gave me the shivers. Awesome job!
Grievous has been my favorite for the longest time. This edit makes him even more badass.
I so want to see Grievous origins. Perhaps in Tales of the Separatists? Featuring him and Kalani?
He'd be a perfect character for the Tales of series!
Wow that was stunning. Such a cool compilation of such an interesting character
Grievous is my favourite star wars character this is amazing
Legends Grievous is easily one of the best written and most tragic characters in Star Wars
Ode to Grievous. Bravo!
Truly a masterpiece
Makes you wonder, if Grievous wasn’t controlled by Palpatine, always held back to keep a stalemate. Imagine the war if Grievous wasn’t held back.
That fool held me back I am a better emperor than him. We could have won that war but no just because he was a weak coward not willing to show the full force of the C.I.S. and the power we could have took from those jedi slugs
Using headphones above the recommended ear level is bad. but doing it with this video is like watching a trailer at the cinema
This was an Incredible Masterpiece for General Grevoius My Tenth Favorite Antagonist’s in Star Wars.
0:01 all warfare is based ... ops, I didn't read the bellow part
“War…war never stops being based.”
He knew the Jedi were the bold ones...so he predicted the future of their fates: a future where there are no Jedi.
"Before the dark times" level. A masterpiece.
Brilliant man, really well edited
Absolutely amazing edit!
What a great Edit! Love it.
Im genuinely praying for a show about general grievous
Once a proud freedom fighter, twisted into a monster by the venomous whispers of Sidious. Poor man.
