Hey friends! Thanks for accompanying me on another Star Wars movie, I love this world and its characters! Been getting a lot of comments about this, so I'm just gonna leave this here: *yes, I do plan to watch the other Star Wars movies*. I know some of you feel very strongly about them, but please respect my experience as a first time watcher and don't try to influence how I feel about a movie before I watch it. I'd really like to make up my own mind. After talking it out with my Patreon, next we'll do Solo, then Rogue One, then the sequels. I'm looking forward to it! Maybe we'll agree about those movies, or maybe we won't. But above all I hope we can stay respectful and friendly.
La verdad es que Rogue One es lo único decente que ha hecho Disney con la franquicia. Lo demás, francamente, es basura. Pero está bien que veas esas series y esas películas, y juzgues por ti misma.
I'm glad you aren't listening the naysayers and rather watch them and form your own opinions. I'm personally not the biggest fan of the sequel trilogy (*cough* The Last Jedi *cough*) but I still think they are worth watching and I know that there is lots of people who enjoy them and find them very entertaining. As you delve more into SW you'll notice that there is constant shitstorm in the fandom and there is ALWAYS folk who think they know what you should watch and like. I have no idea how so many people have missed the core message of this franchise, but somehow that seems to be the reality. So, it's better to shut out all of the negative crap and just keep an open mind & have fun.
When Palpatine tells Anakin to leave Obi-Wan to die, Anakin replied "His fate will be the same as ours". Well, they all died on a Death Star and they were all killed by Anakin/Vader. So, yeah.
I mean Anakin did blow up the death star twice killing millions of innocent people just doing their jobs..... not that the death star didnt blow up planets killing millions of innocent people just living their lives 🤣thats the disney moral code... there is no bad side its just perspective... lets forget the fact they dont even know the name of the characters and how could LUKE blow up the second death star when he was on it fighting vader and then evacuating? i used to think that more content was always better but the fact that the people writing and directing now are just making a mockery of everything to push an agenda.... go look at the expanse.... bad ass female characters none of it feels forced. we dont need to be like "men are bad, make everything women" also how disney gonna keep attacking white men for sexism and racism..... you had a bada** character you fired because she expressed her freedom of speech but you didnt like her opinion.... you also photo shopped out the 1 black person on a poster for your movie when it was released in china because china apparently is more racist than america.... DISNEY did that.... not us..
@SoTOreo your comment might make more sense if you rewrote it..because it reads as if you think Disney had something to do with ROTS. Sentence structure is important when trying to communicate ideas.. also it's unclear based on how it's written whether or not you believe good and evil is only perspective or if you are saying that's what Disney believes etc. I for one believe that good and evil IS perception based...like for instance you have a morale code where murder is a crime or unforgivable sin...whereas someone else may be from a culture where it is not viewed in the same way...who is to say which is correct? And if those morales are based a religion or diety and you have never seen your god and they have never seen theres..then who is to say that either have any meaning? But also just to be clear I am the mind that murder is morally wrong except under very few and and strict circumstance. And I base that morale conviction on having gone to war and seen the effects of both taking life and seeing it taken has on a person's psyche. Anyways cheers and apologies if any of my reply reads as combative it's merely an attempt to understand what you meant.
They made General Grevious cough so the audience would know he's a cyborg and not a droid. And then everyone in the audience said "Wait, why is that droid coughing?"
@@minnesotajones261I mean Rex do know it. If the Clone Wars was created before ROTS than the whole episode 3 would be different I mean order 66 still happend but I guess the most known clones would not turned or if they are than the way like like Rex in season 7
@@minnesotajones261 Order 66 itself wasn’t programmed into the clones, it was a chip implanted into the clones that essentially brainwashed them into blindly following orders, or at least that’s the way I understand it.
Remember Palpatine has been grooming Anakin since he was a small child . The Jedi were very divided about him and I think some were even Jealous of him. Mace being the worst of all of them . Then they wanted him to spy on a Father figure to him. In a lot of ways the Jedi were just as responsible as Palpatine for his Dark Turn. He could not win.
It's easy to forget that Anakin met Palplatine hefore he met the jedi counsel and first impressions really do matter When Anakin met the jedi they forcefully read his mind, told him he was wrong for missing his mother and denied him of his dream to be a jedi While Palpatine welcomed everyone on the landing platform, was worried about the queen/ Anakin's future wife and showed more interest in Anakin than the counsel ever did
Mace Windu did not treat Anakin any differently than anyone else. Anakin was an unruly and overemotional Jedi student, what the actual f*ck did you want him to be treated like?
5:31 common misconception. He’s a cyborg and not a robot. He was once a dude then he got super injured and now all his important bits are stuck in a robot body.
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".
The thing is, particularly with hard core fans that really got into the books, comics and games, a lot of those minor Jedi had very deep and detailed back stories. To see all of those characters that we invested years of following and getting to know, seeing them die like that, it still is traumatizing. To this day.

The Jedi and their arrogance failed Anakin, as well as being groomed by Palps and the other things that happen. Anakin needed QuiGon. Also The Clone Wars series adds so much to the character of Anakin and his story arc. You see how as Ahsoka puts it “he was the best of us”.
@@Prince_the_One Yeah, if Anakin was advocating authoritarianism, had very little impulse and emotional control, and betrayed the freedom of trillions of people over a dream he had about his wife, he was definitely not "the best" of them.
@@rikk319 exactly lol, he always gave in to his emotions in almost every situation, everyone kept telling him what he was doing wrong and he just kept doing it, hes like Zuko without any improvement...
@@rikk319That’s because he wasn’t given an outlet for his feelings by Obi Wan and the Jedi. Also he didn’t have Qui Gon who was the only one who could’ve given him the emotional support and guidance that he really needed.
This movie is an emotional rollercoaster. First time I watched it on theaters, I couldn't speak during several hours until I re-watched the next episodes. Today, I can realize the great CGI and incredible ligthsaber battles. Thanks for your reaction, Cristy.
HaHa! No, people did not clap at the intro, they went absolutely insane! I had never experienced a theater roar like that, watching these in the theater was amazing. People would camp in lines outside movie theaters days before the release to be part of the first showing. Star Wars fans are pretty crazy.
A lot of people overlook this, but when Palpatine says "and we shall have peace", he was blatantly misleading Anakin already. The very first line if the sith code is "Peace is a lie, there is only passion"
Considering none of the Jedi say that about anyone else but Palpatine, that should have narrowed down their search for the hidden Sith Lord quite a bit.
Grievous was originally a Kaleesh, an organic being. He later became a cyborg, organic mixed with droid parts. He also had health issues, hence the cough.
"The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural." Gives me chills every time. Love that opera scene. Hey, Cristy! Well, the Palpatine reveal caught you by surprise which is a delightful rarity! Lucas provided visual and vocal cues since "Phantom Menace" that Palpatine and Sidious were one and the same. Ian McDiarmid plays the Emperor in all the Star Wars films in which he appears. He's the one character having a total blast throughout the prequels because he's pulling everybody's strings! His seduction of Anakin is masterful. The absolute best line of the Prequel trilogy goes to Natalie Portman: "So this is how liberty dies...with thunderous applause." Wookiees live for hundreds of years! In "Revenge of the Sith", Chewbacca is 181 years old! It is a popular belief that Padme's life force was drained out of her and channeled into Anakin by Palpatine which is why her death and his re-birth are juxtaposed by Lucas. Therefore, Palpy is directly responsible for the death of the person he convinced Anakin he could save prompting his betrayal of the Jedi in the first place! A very cruel manipulation. One of the Jedi Order's problems is that they had become ossified by dogma and had lost touch with their true purpose. This made them vulnerable to manipulation by the Sith and blind to their own shortcomings. Iconoclasts like Qui-Gon sought esoteric knowledge beyond ordained teachings to plumb deeper truths and were viewed as troublesome for suggesting the Order had become complacent and stagnant. The knowledge Yoda imparts to Obi-Wan at the end is his discovery of the path to immortality. His spiritual journey is chronicled in the animated "Clone Wars" when he is instructed in the deepest mysteries of the Force. Jedi immortality manifests as the Force-ghosts you see in the Classic trilogy. This was an ability unknown to the Order until Qui-Gon contacts Yoda which is why there are no Force-ghosts in the Prequel trilogy. The Jedi are all but exterminated by Order 66 much like how the Knights Templar were rounded up on a single day, Friday the 13th, in October 1307, by order of the French King Philip IV in a series of coordinated, simultaneous arrests. Emperor Palpatine initiated a smear campaign to vilify the Jedi and expunged any mention of them from the historical record. Philip IV did the same to the Templars demonizing them with false allegations of larceny, murder, sexual perversion, sedition and Satanism that led to their mass burning at the stake with the blessing of the Papacy! Palpy achieved control of a galaxy with his scheme while Philip was simply dodging the crushing debt he owed the Order! The clones are tragic pawns in Palpatine's scheme. They were bred by the Republic and were loyal to their creators serving through thick and thin with their Jedi Generals. The animated "Clone Wars" does a magnificent job of individualizing the troopers. However, they were engineered with a fail-safe to force them to obey executive decisions without question. Initiating Order 66 flips the switch in their brains forcibly turning them against the Jedi whom they previously would have died for. It's a horrifying betrayal not least of which to the clones themselves. Although the Separatist leadership was led by Count Dooku, they weren't privy to the collusion between Dooku and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Each Sith Lord led a faction in the Clone Wars to play both sides against each other creating chaos they could manipulate to their personal advantage! The populations of the worlds which aligned with one faction or the other truly believed in their respective causes which were socioeconomic and geopolitical. The layman had no idea he was just a pawn in Palpatine's grand scheme. With the Jedi exterminated, the greatest threat to his plan was taken off the board and he sent Vader to dispose of the Separatist leadership so he could consolidate power over the organizations they represented. The Separatist worlds relied on the support of those industries and institutions so those worlds would fall in line once those support systems were firmly in the Emperor's grip. The japor snippet pendant Amidala was buried wearing was the same one Anakin carved for her in "Phantom Menace". Senator Bail Organa orders C-3PO's mind to be wiped but R2-D2's CPU is left intact. Artoo REMEMBERS EVERYTHING! Your next stop is to revisit the Vader-Kenobi duel in "A New Hope" right here on YT for an incredible update in SC-38 RE-IMAGINED by FXitinPost! It is recommended that you see the standalone films prior to the Sequel Trilogy. Chronologically, "Solo" comes first beginning 6 years after "Revenge of the Sith", then "Rogue One" occurs just before "A New Hope".
If you think about it, Obi Wans love for Anakin did that too. He loved him so much like a brother that he just couldn't bring himself to finish him off
@@yourlifeisagreatstory Hah! Omg 😂 I never knew my grandparents really but when i was young one of the things i remember mom used to yell when i was crying and she was pissed and it was "Come here and ill give you something to cry about!" She didnt really beat me (i think) but i always found that phrase so stupid. Like shes angry, im crying, shes more angry because im crying and the solution is to make me cry more? Hilarious way of thinking really. At least its hilarious now 20 years later
Yeah, that's how the average 10-year-old would look at it, making sure the teams are evenly matched. If that was the case, he brought the Force out of balance when he destroyed Sheev and himself, because then the Jedi were up 1-0 with only Luke left. Unless you count Filoni's fan fiction, with Ahsoka and the rest. Anakin brought balance when he destroyed Sheev, not before.
A bit of fun extra trivia. Although Palpatine was arguably holding back, Mace Windu was only able to defeat him in combat because Windu actually channels a bit of the darkside into his own unique lightsaber style. Thats also why he fights much more agressively (and angrily) than other jedi.
5:37, basically Mace Windu damaged his breathing system iirc. 6:35 btw fun fact, here Anakin says "my powers have doubled since the last time we met count", this wasnt after fighting Anakin in Episode 2, but his powers doubled after the Clone Wars animated series. So hes even more powerful than most people think.
That series wasn't even a thing when this movie was filmed. It's a retcon of the story and Ahsoka is the biggest proof of that. Nobody even mentions her in this movie or the OT. So, it's obvious that Anakin is referring to their duel on Geonosis, they simply hadn't seen each other in 3 years. Which actually makes more sense than Dooku being the Saturday morning cartoon villain. Another thing is when Grievous reveals to Obi-Wan that Dooku trained him in lightsaber combat. Why would he say that, if they already fought countless times, like they do in the series? According to Sam Witwer, Filoni even forgot that Padmé and Shmi met in Episode 1. The guy is a complete clown and he showed it fully with his Ahsoka series.
small detail i like: when anakin is about to kill the padawans he still has doubt about what to do but the little kid calls him "Master skywalker" a title he doesnt have but wants reaffirming his decision to join the sith
I liked at the beginning of Luke's journey (when arriving on Tatooine and given to Owen and Beru) they are in front of a double sun sunrise. One of the last scenes for Luke on Tatooine (before he goes off with Ben) you see look looking at a double sun sunset.
12:33 "That's really scary. Imagine training yourself to not care if you lose your... spouse." That's not exactly what he said, Cristy. He advised Anakin to train himself to let _go._ He advised Anakin to recognize that, inevitably, all life is temporary. The people you love the most will inevitably die, one day. That day might come tomorrow or it might come many _years_ from now. Yoda's advice, just now, was not to train oneself to be utterly _indifferent_ to the fact. It was to train oneself to recognize the fact as _inevitable._
I mean Yoda cant did this himself when his master died for exemple he cant let it go this is why he speaks backwards and this is because to honour hím but still its some kind of attachment. This advise more like that: If you loose someone grief him/her but do not let your grief take over you. This is what he said to Obi Wan as well. Think of death as something that sets people free
What you say is correct on paper and yes, inevitable but it doesn't make that moment any easier to deal with. When the film first came out, sure I understood what Yoda was saying was simply logical but jump 15 years later and my mom was wasting away with no hope of a cure and I ain't gonna lie, I would have done anything, paid any price to save her, no matter how terrible. When you're caught up in a whirl of emotion like that, it's so hard to think straight.
@@SentinelGigaExactly, Yoda gave up on attachments after seeing so many other Jedi pass on before him. He was wrong about attachments being a bad thing, the answer is to balance attachments and duty in a healthy way, not to have no attachments.
Before this movie was released in theaters, the animated series Clone Wars was released, several important events happened in it, Anakin's appointment as a Jedi, when Padme gives him R2 as a companion, when the Skywalker twins are conceived, when they begin to use the fighters with which they begin the movie, R4 appears several times, the attack on Coruscant, the kidnapping of the chancellor and how Mace Windu wounds the Grivieous, the series ends exactly where the movie begins and ties up several ends of the movie, Later this series was withdrawn to make way for CGI but I am very fond of it, because I had finished watching it the day before the day I went to the cinema. I loved that union that existed between the two.
If you like sword fighting you should watch Blade. He is the vampire hunter from Marvel comics. Blade was the first Marvel movie, and was successful enough that they made two more. Wesley Snipes was crazy good in the fighting sequences. Check it out?
Yes the theater went nuts when the music and Star Wars first hit. Then it was dead quiet during the opening crawl because everyone was reading it for the first time.
I believe the best way I ever heard the prequels explained was: Holy order gains control of their messiah and hands him over to the devil. Fits so well
In the Clone Wars series, there's one episode where Obi-Wan hinted at that he knew or hghly suspected that Anakin and Padmé was very close (though not knowing they were married) when he after Anakin was communicting with him in secret and he was waiting outside, he said "Tell Padmé, I said hello.". He wanted his former Padawan, friend and brother to be happy so he didn't snitch to The Council about it, which is probably why Padmé asks Ani if Obi-Wan could help them.
Hayden Christensen wanted to fully go dark side but gorge lukas said to him you cant do that there is still the light side in anakin that constandly asks "what am i doing?" and then you have the dark side in him saying "im doing this for padme to save her and for the republik, i will not betray the republik" and that is how he did have to play Anakin and thats why george whantet him to play Anakin
You do know women's bellies don't just go flat the moment they give birth. Padme has just died, her body is no longer producing the hormones to reshape her belly so no fake belly was necessary
Palpatine may have used the Dark Side powers to control and manipulate life to get the midichlorians to conceive Anakin. The dreams Anakin had about his mother and later about Padme were almost certainly caused by Palpatine. Remember when Anakin told Padme "Jedi don't have nightmares"? Also remember that Palpatine had an extraordinary ability to see into the future, so he may have seen what Anakin was going to become even before Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon met him. Palpatine was playing 5d chess the whole time (manipulating the separatists to create a droid army and invade Naboo, having ordered the clones, getting elected to the Chancellor's position, getting control over the Senate, getting more and more executive powers, starting the Clone Wars, and playing Anakin like a fiddle.
Revenge Of The Sith is the movie we’ve all been waiting for you to watch in Star Wars, and I still can’t wait for you to watch The Godfather: Part 2 and also continue more of The Sopranos
In the theatres, people would cheer at the 20th Century Fox fanfare, applaud when the text, "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away" appeared, and go absolutely insane when the Star Wars logo and the main theme began! Ahh, what great memories. I saw those 6 movies in the theatres, each so many times!! (SO MANY times, lol) 🥳🥳
Yoda is not saying not to care about losing people he's saying let go of the fear of losing someone because we have no control over it and being afraid to lose someone is just tormenting oneself
Padme's last words "There's good in him" lived on. Her spirit and compassion passed on to Luke that eventually saved Anakin. Funny how Leia despised Vader but was infact more like her father, passionate and resolute.
The prequels were misunderstood when they first came out. But this is the story of Darth Vader and I think George did an amazing job with pushing visual effects that simply weren't available in the original trilogy.
Something I am not sure you noticed. But the guy on the bridge with the Emperor when Vader shows up, is actually a younger version of Grand Moff Tarkin. And in Episode II there is a scene when one of the Separatists is handing Count Dooku (Darth Tyrannis) this hologram computer thing and for a moment you see the Death Star as a hologram. Those were the original Death Star plans. So the Death Star is actually Separatist technology. Only they didn't realize all their weapons that they were developing was for the Empire. Not them. In the original Canon, all the machines and property of the Separatists were taken by the Empire. Right after Anakin was told by Sidious to shut the Droids down. In Disney Cannon they changed things with Star Wars Rebels where a faction of Separatist Droids managed to escape the Empire. But from the beginning, the Super Weapons Palpatine had were being developed by the Separatists. And also many of the designs for the space weapons came from his Master Darth Plageuis. And his Master, Darth Tenebrous. Oh that leads me to one final thing you may not have caught. I didn't catch it the first time either. Someone from a Star Wars video explained it later. Darth Plageuis wanted to become a god in the Force. So he and Palpatine gained cosmic powers. And he tried to create a powerful force sensitive being. The problem is, the Force hated Darth Plageuis. Because he and Palpatine had caused the Force to go out of Balance. So the Force created Anakin. He was the Chosen One after all. He was always going to be good and defeat Palpatine. But Anakin's bloodline are all chosen ones too. Like Luke and Leia. Even a thousand years later one of Leia's descendants named who was a Space Pirate and a Jedi, became an even more powerful chosen one. So the Skywalkers are all created to be heroes. Palpatine was telling Anakin his own origin story. That Plageuis created him (by accident). Plageuis freaked out when he realized Anakin existed. Because he knew the Force created the Chosen One. And the Sith were done for. He wanted to kill Anakin as a child. But Palpatine wanted to turn Anakin into his apprentice instead. And Plageuis was alive until the night before Qui Gonn died. So Sidious was still the Apprentice until right then. Oh and Palpatine has looked like that since the end of Phantom Menace when he killed his Master. Not because of the Force Lightning. Apparently dark side users eventually start to degrade. And the strongest dark side users all look pale with yellow eyes. Darth Plageuis looked like that too. The reason he looked normal for so long was because he used Sith Alchemy to change his appearance back to normal. But he finally dropped it during the fight with Windu to horrify Anakin. To make it look like Windu was responsible for his deformities. Make the Jedi look like even bigger bad guys. And also because he's stronger in his natural form than he is in human form. But that's why Palpatine had that inhuman scream when he started fighting the Jedi. Because he already lost his humanity to the dark side a long time ago. Edit And I have to add this, I love hearing you go "Ay No" and talk in Spanish. Hawt Af 😂
Actually theres a theory that since his usage of the dark side, Palpatine has looked like that for some time, and in fact was using the Dark Side of the force to mask not just his presence as a Sith but also his true appearance, letting it down only as part of his scheming
for order 66 u have to watch " clone wars " anime show to learn how it was implanted in the clones , in the army order for the republic ( phantom menace ) ... :)
it was pretty obvoius in attack of the clones. the cloners literally said they were made with instructions to be totally obeident to take orders without question. and since the chancellor is essentially the Commander in Chief he is the highest commanding officer above anyone and so if he gave oan order they follow it blindliny an nobody below him could chage it
I was 14 when this movie released in theaters, I remember loving The Phantom Menace, and thinking Attack Of The Clones was really boring, so my expectations/knowledge going into this movie were less than zero. To make a long story short, this movie blew my stupid little mind, and no movie theater experience has matched it since. Avengers: Infinity War is a close second, but I'd say this movie left a much longer lasting impression.
While it seems that Palapatine/Sidious' face to be disfigured because of the Force Lightning, the disfigured face is actually his real face because it was disfigured from all the use of The Dark Side. The handsome Palaptine face is a mask created through The Force, a technique called Force Mask. When the Force Lightning is relfected back, it destroys that mask showing his true face. This make sense because neither Anakin, Windu, Yoda or Luke's faces were disgfigured when they got hit by Force Lightning unlike Palpatine/Sidious.
You also need to watch the two Ewok spinoff movies, as well as see the Droids show, the Ewok show, and both Clone Wars TV shows (the one from 2003 and the one from 2008).
I laughed out loud at 17:02, Cristy's humor combined with the editor's humor = chef's kiss 💋 I agree the Anakin flip was undercooked. I choose to believe Palpatine had mind control abilities, that's why he was able to hide under everyone's noses, and that's why he was able to "turn" Anakin rotten like an apple. Otherwise it doesn't actually make sense; his character is totally different after he's spontaneously renamed to Darth Vader. "The Jedi have tried to overthrow the Republic," he lies to his wife's face after killing children. And the delivery of the name change was also goofy and undercooked. I guess some things are better left to the imagination, lol! Still a fine movie.
I did a random wookie yell in the theater opening night before the opening theme came on lol. I wasn't even really a Star Wars fan at the time (my mom's the big Star Wars fan), but I pretty much casually knew the movies at that point. I was in this weird era of randomly imitating Chewie at home at the time, and I was actually really good at it lol. So, sitting in the packed theater with my family, and it was quiet while everyone was anticipating the movie to start. For whatever reason, I just impulsively did a big wookie yell right before it came on. The whole theater erupted with laughter and clapped. I wasn't even really hyped for the movie, but that definitely made me feel good 😄... I did get into Star Wars years later though, hence why I'm here lol...
28:05 Order 66 was a code word that activated an inhibitor chip in the clones' brains, that is, against their own will. This is explained in one of the episodes of The Clone Wars series. After episode 3, the Empire begins to replace the clones with conscripted soldiers, the stormtroopers, but the clones rebel against the empire after the Chip stops working. (Bad Batch, season 1-3)
During Order 66, that kid who speaks to Anakin/Vader, did you look at how he looked & what he was wearing? That kid represented Anakin/Vaders childhood innocence. Regarding Padmes death & Vaders rise; remember in the opera where Palpatine was telling Anakin about Darth Plagious' ability to stop those from dying? What he didn't tell Anakin is that for one person to live, another must die. After his battle with Kenobi Anakin/Vader should've died, his injuries were that severe. Palpatine/Sidious used that ability to steal life from Padme to give it to Vader. Luckily, Palpatine/Sidious didn't know of the twins. Lastly, the prophesy of the force. Anakin/Vader did in fact fulfill it, from a certain point of view. At the end of RotS there were 2 Jedi (Kenobi & Yoda) & 2 Sith (Palpatine/Sidious & Vader).
"So far, Anakin is a great guy" -- at first I agreed with that, and then I had an epiphany: I forgot about the sand people genocide. I think that's the fault of the happy ending of the second movie. It never reinforced the whole "Anakin is a monster" thing. I now see that as a fault in that movie. Thank you for your thought-provoking reactions as always, Cristy!!!
The last 4 episodes of season 7 of The Clone Wars animated series show Order 66 from a different perspective. Some real memorable scenes that enhance the revelations in this film. Highly recommend. The Ahsoka character was being trained by Anakin and her feelings of betrayal really hit home. Just a great character.
Hello! Just a quick observation. I noticed that Vaders helmet is a stylized German helmet from WW2 and the caps worn on the men in the Death Star are Japanese caps also from WW2!
6:35 "My powers have _doubled_ since the last time we met, Count." Not really a necessary boast. The last time these two met, Dooku got away because Skywalker was too lost in his impulses to fight at Kenobi's side as part of a strategy. It was not a shortage of power. It was a shortage of _impulse_ control.
@@CristyReacts Kathleen Kennedy can! (She’s in charge of Star Wars at Disney) the only post Disney Star Wars that’s good is anything that has Dave Filoni or Jon Favreau listed as producers on it.
one note: Palpatine always was scarred and gross, he was using his dark side power to cover it up and then he used the fight with Nick Fury as an opportunity to stop wasting his efforts to hide his face.
22:57 actually that’s the exact opposite of the moral of this movie. The moral of this movie is that if someone will do anything for love, they will commit genocide for love and that attachment is a bad thing.
A different kind of teaching was necessary for Anakin, not of the rigid type the old Jedi order could provide. If he had been raised during Luke's order, he wouldn't have turned.
The quality of the lightsaber duels even makes sense in the storyline, not only because of movie technology. In the prequels, the Jedi are on their height of training and swordsmanship. 20 years later, in Episode IV, Obi-Wan was an old man, who has given up on training for years. And Vader was half a machine, still strong, but far from what Anakin was capable of. It were two beaten men fighting each other. And Luke had to teach most of the skills to himself.
26:47 Palpatine pretty much always looked like that, he hid his looks with the Force to keep his Sith identity a secret. At this point in Star Wars he’s the most powerful being in the galaxy and it’s not really close. If Anakin were to completely let go of all his emotions and demons ect he would be magnitudes stronger than anyone but he’s too immature ect. Now lightsaber vs lightsaber I don’t think anyone could kill Obi-Wan he is an absolute beast with his lightsaber defensive style he uses no one could get a killing blow against him, now Palpatine and Yoda and probably Mace and Anakin could destroy him with the Force but straight up sword skills Obi-Wan walks away from every fight *this only applies when Obi-Wan is alone and doesn’t have anyone else to worry about.
What you're saying is a complete retcon of what we see in the film. When hes electrocuted, we see his skin slowly sagging and melting. We don't see an illusion disappearing, we see the skin being melted. Also, your presumption that his own Sith lightning blasted back at his face and body did no harm to him at all..........thats just silly fanfiction nonsense.
Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor practiced that final light saber fight for several months to get it right. Interesting mistake, when Anakin tried to use Obi Wan's light saber to kill him, if you look closely, When it shows Anakin's face, it's Kenobi's light saber but then in the next shot showing both, it's different.
I watched this at midnight on a Thursday opening night east coast time (Atlanta) so I saw it as soon as pretty much anyone could. 75% of the theater was dressed as Storm Troopers, Leia’’s, Twilek’s, Vader’s, Jedi ect people screamed when the scroll came up, cried when Vader killed the kids and when the twins were born and Parnell died ect. It was the best crowd for a movie I’ve ever been to.
Seeing that lightsaber duel between obi and anaki in the theatre is a memory I will never forget also in the novelisation on this movie palpatine linked the life force of anakin and padme so the closer to death Vader became the more life he took from Padme
Alright I am sure a lot of people put this together, but I am sure some didn't for whatever reason. Whether it be because I missed certain scenes or just forgot certain lines. When Palpatine talked about how his master could influence the midichlorians it hit me. A bit of a refresher. When Qui- Gon asked Shmi who the father was. She responded there was no father. That she carried him and cave birth and could not explain it. Now I believe Palpatine used the force to create Anakin. I also believe Palpatine used the force to give Anakin the visions of both his mother and Padme dying.
42:16 "She just knows" I knew a girl who, as a sophomore, 16 years old, had already named her first 5 kids. Of course, she broke up with her boyfriend at the time during the next year, and I totally lost track of her, I don't know if she even has kids at all. (She would be about 50 now)

Hey friends! Thanks for accompanying me on another Star Wars movie, I love this world and its characters!
Been getting a lot of comments about this, so I'm just gonna leave this here: *yes, I do plan to watch the other Star Wars movies*. I know some of you feel very strongly about them, but please respect my experience as a first time watcher and don't try to influence how I feel about a movie before I watch it. I'd really like to make up my own mind.
After talking it out with my Patreon, next we'll do Solo, then Rogue One, then the sequels. I'm looking forward to it! Maybe we'll agree about those movies, or maybe we won't. But above all I hope we can stay respectful and friendly.
La verdad es que Rogue One es lo único decente que ha hecho Disney con la franquicia. Lo demás, francamente, es basura. Pero está bien que veas esas series y esas películas, y juzgues por ti misma.
Now the next one in the chapter is Kenobi it continues from this
The Obi-Wan show would be a good one to watch next
After you watch Rogue One you should definitely watch the show Andor.
I'm glad you aren't listening the naysayers and rather watch them and form your own opinions. I'm personally not the biggest fan of the sequel trilogy (*cough* The Last Jedi *cough*) but I still think they are worth watching and I know that there is lots of people who enjoy them and find them very entertaining. As you delve more into SW you'll notice that there is constant shitstorm in the fandom and there is ALWAYS folk who think they know what you should watch and like. I have no idea how so many people have missed the core message of this franchise, but somehow that seems to be the reality. So, it's better to shut out all of the negative crap and just keep an open mind & have fun.
When Palpatine tells Anakin to leave Obi-Wan to die, Anakin replied "His fate will be the same as ours". Well, they all died on a Death Star and they were all killed by Anakin/Vader. So, yeah.
I mean Anakin did blow up the death star twice killing millions of innocent people just doing their jobs..... not that the death star didnt blow up planets killing millions of innocent people just living their lives 🤣thats the disney moral code... there is no bad side its just perspective... lets forget the fact they dont even know the name of the characters and how could LUKE blow up the second death star when he was on it fighting vader and then evacuating? i used to think that more content was always better but the fact that the people writing and directing now are just making a mockery of everything to push an agenda.... go look at the expanse.... bad ass female characters none of it feels forced. we dont need to be like "men are bad, make everything women" also how disney gonna keep attacking white men for sexism and racism..... you had a bada** character you fired because she expressed her freedom of speech but you didnt like her opinion.... you also photo shopped out the 1 black person on a poster for your movie when it was released in china because china apparently is more racist than america.... DISNEY did that.... not us..
👀!!!
@SoTOreo your comment might make more sense if you rewrote it..because it reads as if you think Disney had something to do with ROTS. Sentence structure is important when trying to communicate ideas..
also it's unclear based on how it's written whether or not you believe good and evil is only perspective or if you are saying that's what Disney believes etc. I for one believe that good and evil IS perception based...like for instance you have a morale code where murder is a crime or unforgivable sin...whereas someone else may be from a culture where it is not viewed in the same way...who is to say which is correct? And if those morales are based a religion or diety and you have never seen your god and they have never seen theres..then who is to say that either have any meaning?
But also just to be clear I am the mind that murder is morally wrong except under very few and and strict circumstance. And I base that morale conviction on having gone to war and seen the effects of both taking life and seeing it taken has on a person's psyche.
Anyways cheers and apologies if any of my reply reads as combative it's merely an attempt to understand what you meant.
@@SoTOreo That was the dumbest comment I've read all week. Like every sentiment expressed was imoressively stupid and wrong. Congratulations.
Well done. You added something to the Star Wars core lore for me. Thank you!
They made General Grevious cough so the audience would know he's a cyborg and not a droid.
And then everyone in the audience said "Wait, why is that droid coughing?"
they didnt make General Grievous cough for that reason lmfao?? Mace Windu damaged his breathing system making him cough.
@@OfficialDoggyYTit also showed people that he was once a living being instead of a droid. 2 things can be true at the same time.

@@minnesotajones261 Order 66 itself wasn’t programmed into the clones, it was a chip implanted into the clones that essentially brainwashed them into blindly following orders, or at least that’s the way I understand it.
Remember Palpatine has been grooming Anakin since he was a small child . The Jedi were very divided about him and I think some were even Jealous of him. Mace being the worst of all of them . Then they wanted him to spy on a Father figure to him. In a lot of ways the Jedi were just as responsible as Palpatine for his Dark Turn. He could not win.
At the end of the Clone War, the people of the galaxy were even calling it the Jedi War.
Dooku told Kenobi to his face what was actually happening, as direct as could be, and Obi-wan with all his force still didn't see it.
It's easy to forget that Anakin met Palplatine hefore he met the jedi counsel and first impressions really do matter
When Anakin met the jedi they forcefully read his mind, told him he was wrong for missing his mother and denied him of his dream to be a jedi
While Palpatine welcomed everyone on the landing platform, was worried about the queen/ Anakin's future wife and showed more interest in Anakin than the counsel ever did
any day Anakin could walk and say: i am leaving jedi and will marry Padme .peace out. But Anakin want all thing
Mace Windu did not treat Anakin any differently than anyone else. Anakin was an unruly and overemotional Jedi student, what the actual f*ck did you want him to be treated like?
"The only thing he was afraid of was..."
"Taxes.."
You are magnificent.
And spiders!
Jup. I lost it too at that part. 😂😂
Taxes, but not from a jedi.
5:31 common misconception. He’s a cyborg and not a robot. He was once a dude then he got super injured and now all his important bits are stuck in a robot body.
Well put. I've seen so many ppl react to Grievous and not enough people understand that concept
I envision him as an early attempt to make a Vader.
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".
The thing is, particularly with hard core fans that really got into the books, comics and games, a lot of those minor Jedi had very deep and detailed back stories. To see all of those characters that we invested years of following and getting to know, seeing them die like that, it still is traumatizing. To this day.
i never read the EU but i was very touched and saddeed period . just seeing an knoing how and what was going in is very sad in its own right
Oh, but, but...so many "fans" will say all that matters is they were all so "arrogant"...

The Jedi and their arrogance failed Anakin, as well as being groomed by Palps and the other things that happen. Anakin needed QuiGon.
Also The Clone Wars series adds so much to the character of Anakin and his story arc. You see how as Ahsoka puts it “he was the best of us”.
And after that The Bad Batch!
Anakin was overemotional and undisciplined. Thats not the best of anything.
@@Prince_the_One Yeah, if Anakin was advocating authoritarianism, had very little impulse and emotional control, and betrayed the freedom of trillions of people over a dream he had about his wife, he was definitely not "the best" of them.
@@rikk319 exactly lol, he always gave in to his emotions in almost every situation, everyone kept telling him what he was doing wrong and he just kept doing it, hes like Zuko without any improvement...
@@rikk319That’s because he wasn’t given an outlet for his feelings by Obi Wan and the Jedi. Also he didn’t have Qui Gon who was the only one who could’ve given him the emotional support and guidance that he really needed.

This movie is an emotional rollercoaster. First time I watched it on theaters, I couldn't speak during several hours until I re-watched the next episodes. Today, I can realize the great CGI and incredible ligthsaber battles. Thanks for your reaction, Cristy.
HaHa! No, people did not clap at the intro, they went absolutely insane! I had never experienced a theater roar like that, watching these in the theater was amazing. People would camp in lines outside movie theaters days before the release to be part of the first showing. Star Wars fans are pretty crazy.
A lot of people overlook this, but when Palpatine says "and we shall have peace", he was blatantly misleading Anakin already. The very first line if the sith code is "Peace is a lie, there is only passion"
tbf while yes he lied Palpatine doesn't really give a shit about the sith code or their customs
20:20 "The Dark Side of the Force surrounds the Chancellor."
A fact that should tell you a _hell_ of a lot more than it does.
Considering none of the Jedi say that about anyone else but Palpatine, that should have narrowed down their search for the hidden Sith Lord quite a bit.
They took their sweet time to notice it.
Grievous was originally a Kaleesh, an organic being. He later became a cyborg, organic mixed with droid parts. He also had health issues, hence the cough.
‘You interrupted him! He was meditating!’
Mom! I was just washing it!!
What's more tragic is that Mace Windu told Anakin to wait in the council chambers so he could be promoted to Jedi Master.
He didn’t say anything about making him a Jedi master.

Hey, Cristy! Well, the Palpatine reveal caught you by surprise which is a delightful rarity! Lucas provided visual and vocal cues since "Phantom Menace" that Palpatine and Sidious were one and the same. Ian McDiarmid plays the Emperor in all the Star Wars films in which he appears. He's the one character having a total blast throughout the prequels because he's pulling everybody's strings! His seduction of Anakin is masterful.
The absolute best line of the Prequel trilogy goes to Natalie Portman: "So this is how liberty dies...with thunderous applause."
Wookiees live for hundreds of years! In "Revenge of the Sith", Chewbacca is 181 years old!
It is a popular belief that Padme's life force was drained out of her and channeled into Anakin by Palpatine which is why her death and his re-birth are juxtaposed by Lucas. Therefore, Palpy is directly responsible for the death of the person he convinced Anakin he could save prompting his betrayal of the Jedi in the first place! A very cruel manipulation.
One of the Jedi Order's problems is that they had become ossified by dogma and had lost touch with their true purpose. This made them vulnerable to manipulation by the Sith and blind to their own shortcomings. Iconoclasts like Qui-Gon sought esoteric knowledge beyond ordained teachings to plumb deeper truths and were viewed as troublesome for suggesting the Order had become complacent and stagnant. The knowledge Yoda imparts to Obi-Wan at the end is his discovery of the path to immortality. His spiritual journey is chronicled in the animated "Clone Wars" when he is instructed in the deepest mysteries of the Force. Jedi immortality manifests as the Force-ghosts you see in the Classic trilogy. This was an ability unknown to the Order until Qui-Gon contacts Yoda which is why there are no Force-ghosts in the Prequel trilogy.
The Jedi are all but exterminated by Order 66 much like how the Knights Templar were rounded up on a single day, Friday the 13th, in October 1307, by order of the French King Philip IV in a series of coordinated, simultaneous arrests. Emperor Palpatine initiated a smear campaign to vilify the Jedi and expunged any mention of them from the historical record. Philip IV did the same to the Templars demonizing them with false allegations of larceny, murder, sexual perversion, sedition and Satanism that led to their mass burning at the stake with the blessing of the Papacy! Palpy achieved control of a galaxy with his scheme while Philip was simply dodging the crushing debt he owed the Order!
The clones are tragic pawns in Palpatine's scheme. They were bred by the Republic and were loyal to their creators serving through thick and thin with their Jedi Generals. The animated "Clone Wars" does a magnificent job of individualizing the troopers. However, they were engineered with a fail-safe to force them to obey executive decisions without question. Initiating Order 66 flips the switch in their brains forcibly turning them against the Jedi whom they previously would have died for. It's a horrifying betrayal not least of which to the clones themselves.
Although the Separatist leadership was led by Count Dooku, they weren't privy to the collusion between Dooku and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Each Sith Lord led a faction in the Clone Wars to play both sides against each other creating chaos they could manipulate to their personal advantage! The populations of the worlds which aligned with one faction or the other truly believed in their respective causes which were socioeconomic and geopolitical. The layman had no idea he was just a pawn in Palpatine's grand scheme. With the Jedi exterminated, the greatest threat to his plan was taken off the board and he sent Vader to dispose of the Separatist leadership so he could consolidate power over the organizations they represented. The Separatist worlds relied on the support of those industries and institutions so those worlds would fall in line once those support systems were firmly in the Emperor's grip.
The japor snippet pendant Amidala was buried wearing was the same one Anakin carved for her in "Phantom Menace".
Senator Bail Organa orders C-3PO's mind to be wiped but R2-D2's CPU is left intact. Artoo REMEMBERS EVERYTHING!
Your next stop is to revisit the Vader-Kenobi duel in "A New Hope" right here on YT for an incredible update in SC-38 RE-IMAGINED by FXitinPost!
It is recommended that you see the standalone films prior to the Sequel Trilogy. Chronologically, "Solo" comes first beginning 6 years after "Revenge of the Sith", then "Rogue One" occurs just before "A New Hope".
Exactly, you took the words right out of my mouth.
If Obi-Wan had finished Vader off Anakin wouldn't be around to save the galaxy later. Qui-Gon was right all along. He is the chosen one
Thank you for saying that he definitely was needed alive
If you think about it, Obi Wans love for Anakin did that too. He loved him so much like a brother that he just couldn't bring himself to finish him off
"Were gonna slap the dark side out of him" that line was gold.

Anakin did exactly what he was supposed to - àt the start there were thousands of jedi and only 2 sith - at the end, it was balanced to 2 of each.
The force is a sadistic bastard
That is not balancing the force. George Lucas literally said that was wrong as well.
Yeah, that's how the average 10-year-old would look at it, making sure the teams are evenly matched. If that was the case, he brought the Force out of balance when he destroyed Sheev and himself, because then the Jedi were up 1-0 with only Luke left. Unless you count Filoni's fan fiction, with Ahsoka and the rest. Anakin brought balance when he destroyed Sheev, not before.
"slap the Dark Side out of him". epic... I love that, Cristy!!
Every time I hear anakin take his first breath as Vader it gives me goosebumps every time

@@gumdeo SOMEHOW there are 3 other films, dark magic, secrets only Disney knew
A bit of fun extra trivia. Although Palpatine was arguably holding back, Mace Windu was only able to defeat him in combat because Windu actually channels a bit of the darkside into his own unique lightsaber style. Thats also why he fights much more agressively (and angrily) than other jedi.
5:37, basically Mace Windu damaged his breathing system iirc.
6:35 btw fun fact, here Anakin says "my powers have doubled since the last time we met count", this wasnt after fighting Anakin in Episode 2, but his powers doubled after the Clone Wars animated series. So hes even more powerful than most people think.
I mean is kinda funny cause if you think about it. His prime is in Mortis
That series wasn't even a thing when this movie was filmed. It's a retcon of the story and Ahsoka is the biggest proof of that. Nobody even mentions her in this movie or the OT. So, it's obvious that Anakin is referring to their duel on Geonosis, they simply hadn't seen each other in 3 years. Which actually makes more sense than Dooku being the Saturday morning cartoon villain.
Another thing is when Grievous reveals to Obi-Wan that Dooku trained him in lightsaber combat. Why would he say that, if they already fought countless times, like they do in the series? According to Sam Witwer, Filoni even forgot that Padmé and Shmi met in Episode 1. The guy is a complete clown and he showed it fully with his Ahsoka series.
Yes we clapped and cheered!
43:50 just knowing that Snips is somewhere in the crowd.
small detail i like: when anakin is about to kill the padawans he still has doubt about what to do but the little kid calls him "Master skywalker" a title he doesnt have but wants reaffirming his decision to join the sith
I liked at the beginning of Luke's journey (when arriving on Tatooine and given to Owen and Beru) they are in front of a double sun sunrise. One of the last scenes for Luke on Tatooine (before he goes off with Ben) you see look looking at a double sun sunset.
"[Palpatine] is out of control"
😂 ....yeah
12:33 "That's really scary. Imagine training yourself to not care if you lose your... spouse."
That's not exactly what he said, Cristy. He advised Anakin to train himself to let _go._ He advised Anakin to recognize that, inevitably, all life is temporary. The people you love the most will inevitably die, one day. That day might come tomorrow or it might come many _years_ from now. Yoda's advice, just now, was not to train oneself to be utterly _indifferent_ to the fact. It was to train oneself to recognize the fact as _inevitable._
I mean Yoda cant did this himself when his master died for exemple he cant let it go this is why he speaks backwards and this is because to honour hím but still its some kind of attachment.
This advise more like that: If you loose someone grief him/her but do not let your grief take over you. This is what he said to Obi Wan as well.
Think of death as something that sets people free
What you say is correct on paper and yes, inevitable but it doesn't make that moment any easier to deal with. When the film first came out, sure I understood what Yoda was saying was simply logical but jump 15 years later and my mom was wasting away with no hope of a cure and I ain't gonna lie, I would have done anything, paid any price to save her, no matter how terrible. When you're caught up in a whirl of emotion like that, it's so hard to think straight.
@@SentinelGigaExactly, Yoda gave up on attachments after seeing so many other Jedi pass on before him. He was wrong about attachments being a bad thing, the answer is to balance attachments and duty in a healthy way, not to have no attachments.

Before this movie was released in theaters, the animated series Clone Wars was released, several important events happened in it, Anakin's appointment as a Jedi, when Padme gives him R2 as a companion, when the Skywalker twins are conceived, when they begin to use the fighters with which they begin the movie, R4 appears several times, the attack on Coruscant, the kidnapping of the chancellor and how Mace Windu wounds the Grivieous, the series ends exactly where the movie begins and ties up several ends of the movie, Later this series was withdrawn to make way for CGI but I am very fond of it, because I had finished watching it the day before the day I went to the cinema. I loved that union that existed between the two.
If you like sword fighting you should watch Blade. He is the vampire hunter from Marvel comics. Blade was the first Marvel movie, and was successful enough that they made two more. Wesley Snipes was crazy good in the fighting sequences. Check it out?
30:54 Misremembering, only Qui Gon wanted to take Anakin on. They all sensed evil on the council.
Yes the theater went nuts when the music and Star Wars first hit. Then it was dead quiet during the opening crawl because everyone was reading it for the first time.
Cristy, your one liners are genius.
Padmé; are you going to kill him?
Cristy; No, we're gonna slap the dark side out of him.😂😂😂
I believe the best way I ever heard the prequels explained was:
Holy order gains control of their messiah and hands him over to the devil.
Fits so well
In the Clone Wars series, there's one episode where Obi-Wan hinted at that he knew or hghly suspected that Anakin and Padmé was very close (though not knowing they were married) when he after Anakin was communicting with him in secret and he was waiting outside, he said "Tell Padmé, I said hello.". He wanted his former Padawan, friend and brother to be happy so he didn't snitch to The Council about it, which is probably why Padmé asks Ani if Obi-Wan could help them.
Hayden Christensen wanted to fully go dark side but gorge lukas said to him you cant do that there is still the light side in anakin that constandly asks "what am i doing?" and then you have the dark side in him saying "im doing this for padme to save her and for the republik, i will not betray the republik" and that is how he did have to play Anakin and thats why george whantet him to play Anakin
When Padme was buried, you can see the huge belly. They tried to cheat the Emperor, looking like she had died pregnant.
They make the fake death of 🤰🏻
You do know women's bellies don't just go flat the moment they give birth. Padme has just died, her body is no longer producing the hormones to reshape her belly so no fake belly was necessary
they also had the thing ani carved out of a japur snippet from when they met, which was a nice touch
I mean its like 4-5 hours after she died so her belly would look like this whitout making to look like she was still pragnent
Palpatine may have used the Dark Side powers to control and manipulate life to get the midichlorians to conceive Anakin. The dreams Anakin had about his mother and later about Padme were almost certainly caused by Palpatine. Remember when Anakin told Padme "Jedi don't have nightmares"? Also remember that Palpatine had an extraordinary ability to see into the future, so he may have seen what Anakin was going to become even before Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon met him.
Palpatine was playing 5d chess the whole time (manipulating the separatists to create a droid army and invade Naboo, having ordered the clones, getting elected to the Chancellor's position, getting control over the Senate, getting more and more executive powers, starting the Clone Wars, and playing Anakin like a fiddle.
"The only thing he was afraid of was ..." "taxes" 🤣
Revenge Of The Sith is the movie we’ve all been waiting for you to watch in Star Wars, and I still can’t wait for you to watch The Godfather: Part 2 and also continue more of The Sopranos

Ahh, what great memories. I saw those 6 movies in the theatres, each so many times!! (SO MANY times, lol) 🥳🥳
Yoda is not saying not to care about losing people he's saying let go of the fear of losing someone because we have no control over it and being afraid to lose someone is just tormenting oneself
Padme's last words "There's good in him" lived on. Her spirit and compassion passed on to Luke that eventually saved Anakin. Funny how Leia despised Vader but was infact more like her father, passionate and resolute.
FRESHLY SQUEEZED PULPATINE!!! HAHAHAHAHA im dying lmao

Palpatine juice is something I never wanted to hear...
2:57 I went to the midnight showing and my uncle was dressed up in his Darth Vader cosplay and the theater was in up roar when the title came on.
Imo Anikin's walk to the jedi temple with an army of clones behind him is on of the best cinematic shots ever made.
The prequels were misunderstood when they first came out. But this is the story of Darth Vader and I think George did an amazing job with pushing visual effects that simply weren't available in the original trilogy.
Something I am not sure you noticed. But the guy on the bridge with the Emperor when Vader shows up, is actually a younger version of Grand Moff Tarkin. And in Episode II there is a scene when one of the Separatists is handing Count Dooku (Darth Tyrannis) this hologram computer thing and for a moment you see the Death Star as a hologram. Those were the original Death Star plans. So the Death Star is actually Separatist technology.
Only they didn't realize all their weapons that they were developing was for the Empire. Not them. In the original Canon, all the machines and property of the Separatists were taken by the Empire. Right after Anakin was told by Sidious to shut the Droids down. In Disney Cannon they changed things with Star Wars Rebels where a faction of Separatist Droids managed to escape the Empire.
But from the beginning, the Super Weapons Palpatine had were being developed by the Separatists. And also many of the designs for the space weapons came from his Master Darth Plageuis. And his Master, Darth Tenebrous. Oh that leads me to one final thing you may not have caught. I didn't catch it the first time either.
Someone from a Star Wars video explained it later. Darth Plageuis wanted to become a god in the Force. So he and Palpatine gained cosmic powers. And he tried to create a powerful force sensitive being. The problem is, the Force hated Darth Plageuis.
Because he and Palpatine had caused the Force to go out of Balance.
So the Force created Anakin. He was the Chosen One after all. He was always going to be good and defeat Palpatine. But Anakin's bloodline are all chosen ones too.
Like Luke and Leia. Even a thousand years later one of Leia's descendants named who was a Space Pirate and a Jedi, became an even more powerful chosen one. So the Skywalkers are all created to be heroes. Palpatine was telling Anakin his own origin story. That Plageuis created him (by accident).
Plageuis freaked out when he realized Anakin existed. Because he knew the Force created the Chosen One. And the Sith were done for. He wanted to kill Anakin as a child. But Palpatine wanted to turn Anakin into his apprentice instead.
And Plageuis was alive until the night before Qui Gonn died. So Sidious was still the Apprentice until right then. Oh and Palpatine has looked like that since the end of Phantom Menace when he killed his Master. Not because of the Force Lightning. Apparently dark side users eventually start to degrade.
And the strongest dark side users all look pale with yellow eyes. Darth Plageuis looked like that too. The reason he looked normal for so long was because he used Sith Alchemy to change his appearance back to normal. But he finally dropped it during the fight with Windu to horrify Anakin. To make it look like Windu was responsible for his deformities.
Make the Jedi look like even bigger bad guys. And also because he's stronger in his natural form than he is in human form. But that's why Palpatine had that inhuman scream when he started fighting the Jedi. Because he already lost his humanity to the dark side a long time ago.
Edit
And I have to add this, I love hearing you go "Ay No" and talk in Spanish. Hawt Af 😂
Her: “the chancellor is out of control”
Me: “damn…”
Actually theres a theory that since his usage of the dark side, Palpatine has looked like that for some time, and in fact was using the Dark Side of the force to mask not just his presence as a Sith but also his true appearance, letting it down only as part of his scheming
for order 66 u have to watch " clone wars " anime show to learn how it was implanted in the clones , in the army order for the republic ( phantom menace ) ... :)
it was pretty obvoius in attack of the clones. the cloners literally said they were made with instructions to be totally obeident to take orders without question.
and since the chancellor is essentially the Commander in Chief he is the highest commanding officer above anyone and so if he gave oan order they follow it blindliny an nobody below him could chage it
"Anime" it is not. Animated siries this is. Mistaken you will
@@kristof.demeter yes i mean animated sorry for my english.. but sure u understand... :)
I was 14 when this movie released in theaters, I remember loving The Phantom Menace, and thinking Attack Of The Clones was really boring, so my expectations/knowledge going into this movie were less than zero. To make a long story short, this movie blew my stupid little mind, and no movie theater experience has matched it since. Avengers: Infinity War is a close second, but I'd say this movie left a much longer lasting impression.
you should watch the clone wars since it takes place between 2 and 3 and introduces you to another character that is a fan favorite
Great series!
While it seems that Palapatine/Sidious' face to be disfigured because of the Force Lightning, the disfigured face is actually his real face because it was disfigured from all the use of The Dark Side. The handsome Palaptine face is a mask created through The Force, a technique called Force Mask. When the Force Lightning is relfected back, it destroys that mask showing his true face. This make sense because neither Anakin, Windu, Yoda or Luke's faces were disgfigured when they got hit by Force Lightning unlike Palpatine/Sidious.
Yes. People were clapping when this music started playing. After almost 50 years, hearing it still gives me goosebumps. 😃
Anakin: Liar!
Her face: 😱😱😱😱
"The only thing he was afraid of was" "TAXES." The ultimate enemy of the sith lol
"The only thing he was afraid of was..."
"Taxes"
CRISTY STOP! I'M DYING HERE XD
4:14 "Let's try spinning! That's a good trick" - Anakin, Episode I
You also need to watch the two Ewok spinoff movies, as well as see the Droids show, the Ewok show, and both Clone Wars TV shows (the one from 2003 and the one from 2008).
I laughed out loud at 17:02, Cristy's humor combined with the editor's humor = chef's kiss 💋
I agree the Anakin flip was undercooked. I choose to believe Palpatine had mind control abilities, that's why he was able to hide under everyone's noses, and that's why he was able to "turn" Anakin rotten like an apple. Otherwise it doesn't actually make sense; his character is totally different after he's spontaneously renamed to Darth Vader. "The Jedi have tried to overthrow the Republic," he lies to his wife's face after killing children. And the delivery of the name change was also goofy and undercooked. I guess some things are better left to the imagination, lol! Still a fine movie.
I did a random wookie yell in the theater opening night before the opening theme came on lol. I wasn't even really a Star Wars fan at the time (my mom's the big Star Wars fan), but I pretty much casually knew the movies at that point. I was in this weird era of randomly imitating Chewie at home at the time, and I was actually really good at it lol. So, sitting in the packed theater with my family, and it was quiet while everyone was anticipating the movie to start. For whatever reason, I just impulsively did a big wookie yell right before it came on. The whole theater erupted with laughter and clapped. I wasn't even really hyped for the movie, but that definitely made me feel good 😄...
I did get into Star Wars years later though, hence why I'm here lol...
RotS is the most liked movie. I'm just finishing up something else and when it's over, I'll dive in with you!
Most liked PREQUEL movie certainly
I mean, yeah... I guess. Everyone seems to love that saber fight, but I suppose it's not the "best" loved.
The Obi Wan Kenobi mini series is SOOOOOO good and emotional
I blame Palpatine for using Anakin's love of his wife against him to make him turn.
Awesome reaction of my favorite Star Wars movie!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊
28:05 Order 66 was a code word that activated an inhibitor chip in the clones' brains, that is, against their own will.
This is explained in one of the episodes of The Clone Wars series.
After episode 3, the Empire begins to replace the clones with conscripted soldiers, the stormtroopers, but the clones rebel against the empire after the Chip stops working. (Bad Batch, season 1-3)
Another fact this is the only time that light sabers of the same color fight each other.
STAR WARS 3: Palpatine's calculations of manupilating Anakin into Vader, Clone Wars into Imperial vs Rebels and Jedi Purge.
During Order 66, that kid who speaks to Anakin/Vader, did you look at how he looked & what he was wearing? That kid represented Anakin/Vaders childhood innocence. Regarding Padmes death & Vaders rise; remember in the opera where Palpatine was telling Anakin about Darth Plagious' ability to stop those from dying? What he didn't tell Anakin is that for one person to live, another must die. After his battle with Kenobi Anakin/Vader should've died, his injuries were that severe. Palpatine/Sidious used that ability to steal life from Padme to give it to Vader. Luckily, Palpatine/Sidious didn't know of the twins.
Lastly, the prophesy of the force. Anakin/Vader did in fact fulfill it, from a certain point of view. At the end of RotS there were 2 Jedi (Kenobi & Yoda) & 2 Sith (Palpatine/Sidious & Vader).
"The only thing he was afraid of..." Taxes. Lol
"So far, Anakin is a great guy" -- at first I agreed with that, and then I had an epiphany: I forgot about the sand people genocide. I think that's the fault of the happy ending of the second movie. It never reinforced the whole "Anakin is a monster" thing. I now see that as a fault in that movie. Thank you for your thought-provoking reactions as always, Cristy!!!
The last 4 episodes of season 7 of The Clone Wars animated series show Order 66 from a different perspective. Some real memorable scenes that enhance the revelations in this film. Highly recommend. The Ahsoka character was being trained by Anakin and her feelings of betrayal really hit home. Just a great character.
Hello! Just a quick observation. I noticed that Vaders helmet is a stylized German helmet from WW2 and the caps worn on the men in the Death Star are Japanese caps also from WW2!
6:35 "My powers have _doubled_ since the last time we met, Count."
Not really a necessary boast. The last time these two met, Dooku got away because Skywalker was too lost in his impulses to fight at Kenobi's side as part of a strategy. It was not a shortage of power. It was a shortage of _impulse_ control.
"Rouge One" is next to watch. No need to watch 7,8 or 9.
I'm watchin' em all, no one can stop me! :P
@@CristyReacts Just bear in mind these ones are not Lucas made...
@@CristyReacts Kathleen Kennedy can! (She’s in charge of Star Wars at Disney) the only post Disney Star Wars that’s good is anything that has Dave Filoni or Jon Favreau listed as producers on it.
I appreciate you sharing your opinion but I'd rather watch them and find out for myself! :)
OK!
one note: Palpatine always was scarred and gross, he was using his dark side power to cover it up and then he used the fight with Nick Fury as an opportunity to stop wasting his efforts to hide his face.
22:57 actually that’s the exact opposite of the moral of this movie. The moral of this movie is that if someone will do anything for love, they will commit genocide for love and that attachment is a bad thing.
Anakin never learned to control his emotions, he always let them control him.
A different kind of teaching was necessary for Anakin, not of the rigid type the old Jedi order could provide. If he had been raised during Luke's order, he wouldn't have turned.
@@nightelfuser yeah, no. Anakin ignored his teachings and that’s why he turned. If he was willing to follow his teachings, he never would’ve turned.
@@miked.7245 That rigid kind of teaching is what got all of them killed, btw.
@@nightelfuser no. That would be Anakin’s choices. Because he didn’t listen to the teachings.
The wiled memory covers why C3PO is clueless in episode IV.
The quality of the lightsaber duels even makes sense in the storyline, not only because of movie technology.
In the prequels, the Jedi are on their height of training and swordsmanship. 20 years later, in Episode IV, Obi-Wan was an old man, who has given up on training for years. And Vader was half a machine, still strong, but far from what Anakin was capable of. It were two beaten men fighting each other. And Luke had to teach most of the skills to himself.
26:47 Palpatine pretty much always looked like that, he hid his looks with the Force to keep his Sith identity a secret. At this point in Star Wars he’s the most powerful being in the galaxy and it’s not really close. If Anakin were to completely let go of all his emotions and demons ect he would be magnitudes stronger than anyone but he’s too immature ect. Now lightsaber vs lightsaber I don’t think anyone could kill Obi-Wan he is an absolute beast with his lightsaber defensive style he uses no one could get a killing blow against him, now Palpatine and Yoda and probably Mace and Anakin could destroy him with the Force but straight up sword skills Obi-Wan walks away from every fight *this only applies when Obi-Wan is alone and doesn’t have anyone else to worry about.
What you're saying is a complete retcon of what we see in the film. When hes electrocuted, we see his skin slowly sagging and melting. We don't see an illusion disappearing, we see the skin being melted. Also, your presumption that his own Sith lightning blasted back at his face and body did no harm to him at all..........thats just silly fanfiction nonsense.
I love how sometimes I can't tell if you are saying "Ay, no!" or "I know." Usually I can figure it out pretty easily.
I pretty much never actually know anything 🤣 so it’s typically “ay no!”
Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor practiced that final light saber fight for several months to get it right. Interesting mistake, when Anakin tried to use Obi Wan's light saber to kill him, if you look closely, When it shows Anakin's face, it's Kenobi's light saber but then in the next shot showing both, it's different.
He did not get fried. This is his Sith Face. Through the force lightning his facade crumbled.
I watched this at midnight on a Thursday opening night east coast time (Atlanta) so I saw it as soon as pretty much anyone could. 75% of the theater was dressed as Storm Troopers, Leia’’s, Twilek’s, Vader’s, Jedi ect people screamed when the scroll came up, cried when Vader killed the kids and when the twins were born and Parnell died ect. It was the best crowd for a movie I’ve ever been to.
Not Parnell 😭
@@CristyReactsstupid iOS corrected Padme to Parnell :P
Seeing that lightsaber duel between obi and anaki in the theatre is a memory I will never forget also in the novelisation on this movie palpatine linked the life force of anakin and padme so the closer to death Vader became the more life he took from Padme
When I seen Episode I the audience cheered and clapped when the text started rollin
Alright I am sure a lot of people put this together, but I am sure some didn't for whatever reason. Whether it be because I missed certain scenes or just forgot certain lines. When Palpatine talked about how his master could influence the midichlorians it hit me. A bit of a refresher. When Qui- Gon asked Shmi who the father was. She responded there was no father. That she carried him and cave birth and could not explain it. Now I believe Palpatine used the force to create Anakin. I also believe Palpatine used the force to give Anakin the visions of both his mother and Padme dying.
27:10
Borat voice: “My Wiiiife!”
42:16 "She just knows"
I knew a girl who, as a sophomore, 16 years old, had already named her first 5 kids.
Of course, she broke up with her boyfriend at the time during the next year, and I totally lost track of her, I don't know if she even has kids at all. (She would be about 50 now)
Yoda: Miss the bus, do not...
*For that is a path to the dark side*
