You guys liked this one, did you happen to see the Darth Vader fan film Shards of the past? It’s supposed to be the first in a triology of fan films created by Star Wars Theory
Also look up Ben Schamma aka Maul Cosplay. He played Darth Maul here. He does great cosplays work including Kal Drago, Joel from the last of us and many others
The actor who played Maul also met Ray Park when he was a kid which is why inspired him to study martial arts and train. His wife is also who played the Torgruta.
The real greatest thing about this film is that not only it fits perfectly within canon, it actually serves as foreshadowing for Maul's lasting desire to have his own apprentice. We see it in Clone Wars and in Rebels with Savage Opress, Ahsoka and Ezra. In here, the reason he hesitates to kill the jedi chick is because when he feels her potential and her rage, he thinks "She could do it. I could make her my..." But then, he realizes Sidious is watching. And so he has no choice but to suppress that thought. It shows he's ALWAYS had that wanting, from the beggining. This film is basically canon at this point lol.
@@ReelRejects Definitely - according to one source it was named that way because people couldn't explain how it was formed (it was the ice age that split the rocks), so they thought it must have been the devil's handiwork. But I wouldn't be surprised if there was some superstitious lore behind it as well, after all these regions are full of stories about sightings of the devil, the headless horseman etc.
The thing I love about that final encounter is that it really shows how the people who made this are deep Star Wars fans. Maul new that this girl had a lot of darkness within her, and in that moment he felt power over her and knew that he could be twice as powerful if he took her in as an apprentice. But when he noticed he was being watched, he immediately knew that Sidious was denying him this tool, and that made him even angrier. That seen was so well handled, and only people who truly understand Star Wars lore would be able to pick up on it!
@Loyal Nguyễn if you didn't see him doubt himself, watch his eyes more closely at the end, his expression softens...he sees the drone...knows the emperor is watching...then resolves himself to the kill. For the briefest of moments, their was mercy in him. Whether or not he has no compassion in any other media, has no bearing on what the director was trying to show in this particular short film.
@@IndyMotoRider honestly - him not having compassion in other films could be directly as a result of this final ritual killing of his last bit of compassion. His true finalized owning up to his dark side.
I thought reel rejects reacted to this fan made film already. Crazy. It's honestly embarrassing that this is fan made, when Hollywood studios can't come close to this level of storytelling and just bad ass looks.
And here you can see what Episode 7-9 are missing. Awesome lightsaber duels! (and yeah, a innovative plot, good written characters and so on - but to see people who know how to use a lightsaber is really satisfying)
RTNANDEZ96 I’ve watched it, and loved it. I’m actually doing a Star Wars binge right now. Watched The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. Now I’m watching Clone Wars and then Revenge of the sith. Yes I’m one of those people who has to watch it chronologically. 😂
I love this film and also for people who are wondering the reason he didn’t instantly kill her is because he knows how it feels to lose someone important to you because he was taken away from his mother.
Nerdstorm Productions never thought of it like that before, pretty tragic when you consider Maul had basically lost everything by the time of Rebels. Everything except for his Hatred for Kenobi.
Ray Park met Ben Schema already multiple times and he is a big fan of this fan film. The togruta is Bens girfriend/wife (not sure at this time bc i met Ben over 3 years ago).
I LOVE how Maul shows expressions of compassion everytime he is standing over the apprentice, about to kill her. Like he feels bad for her, almost as if he sees a bit of himself in her
Another INCREDIBLE reaction video I've TRULY liked and enjoyed watching. This Fan-Film is the reason why I'm subscribed to T7Pro. The Reel Rejects, stay SAFE out there and stay AWESOME.
WAIT ! LIKE FOR REAL, I enjoyed this more than the last 3 movies combined! - The choreography was extremely good and intense : 9/10 - Camera work was very good : 8/10 - CGI : 7.5/10 - Music & sound effects : 8/10 - The acting was above average for the most part : 7/10
I was one of the people who suggested that you should react to this, I'm so glad that I finally got to watch you guys react to this awesome badass fan film
The dueling pace is at prequel speed, and the majority of the film from beginning to end is impressive, most impressive as a certain apprentice of mine would say to this. 4 years too late, but glad you guys reacted to it!
That was an amazing fan made film! The effects, camera angles and choreography could not have been cheap. Here's my question since I believe you guys would know the answer: since these characters are copyright by Disney now, do any profits from this get claimed by Disney or do the creators of this get any revenue?
Vi Dan Tran who was the stunt coordinator on this project, landed a stunt choreographer position on the AMC show Into The Badlands and now is doing stunts for the new Dune film.
Fun fact about this film this project took a year to finish this what I called commitment. Plus if this was cannon it would explain why the Jedi council didn’t know about Maul
You guys should react to Bucketheads next. It's a good short film about the Galactic Civil War from the Storm Trooper side, they even got the voice actor of Commander Shepherd to play a Storm Commander.
I can't believe you guys hadn't seen this before, its been on YT for over four years.!!! One of the first video's i put a 👍 on.! This is a great fan film, one of the best around, its like a Prequel to " The Duel of the Fates Battle".! Disney should get these guys in to fix their Star Wars.!!!
@@Sco3000 it's not better lmao. Just because there are more people fighting here than in the st doesn't make the choreography better. Have you actually seen TLJ? The Throne Room fight was one of the best fights in sw, it was amazing. The choreography in the fight between Kylo and Luke was mmm delicious. Also the fights in TROS, when Rey was on Kylo's ship, the choreography was a lot better than here. Not to mention the fight on the Death Star.
the people behind T7Pro are awesome. they've done tons of fight scenes, both for movies and tv shows like into the badlands (their best work, IMO, but i am biased).
Only just saw this reaction by you guys...love it. Would also strongly recommend the Star Wars fan film "Rescue Mission" if you haven't seen it. Also excellent.
The makers of this film are actually colleagues of my friend’s brother. And I did a lot of hiking through the devil’s gorge down in Bollendorf. Watching the fan film I was thinking „this must be Bollendorf“😂😂😂😂
I love the reaction from the rejects! I've seen this a few times now, and it's very well put together. It never ceases to amaze me the kind of stuff fans can create. The short films by fans nowadays are the kind of thing George Lucas would have loved to be able to make in the late 70s-early 80s. If he'd had the technology back then, I wonder what the original trilogy would have looked like.
There should be a live action Darth Maul TV Show where we see what happens to Maul between the end of Clone Wars and when we see him in Rebels and then have flashbacks to his life and origins before Phantom Menace. Darth Maul is a fascinating character. If you get Sam Witwer to play live action maul would be perfect.
Better than anything Disney could ever do (with the exception of the Mandolorian, Solo, & Rogue One) These people that made this short film should try to get the rights to make a Darth Maul TH-cam series. It would blow up!!!! 😍
"It should be a live action anthology film." THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING. Though I'd like it to be animated, call it something like Skywalker Stories where it details the skywalkers and everyone around them. I'd certainly like to see more of Qui-Gon Jinn and Ahsoka, maybe figure out where Ezra is...develop Rey more like Clone Wars did for Anakin oh so good.
I mean, considering that 7 and 8 are pretty much back-to-back, that isn't really possible. And 9 was pretty much shortly after that. There's just no place for such a show.
check out the Fan film Teaser Phoenix Programm - Cyperpunk. Its from the same team like Darth Maul Apprentice. The Darth Maul Actor plays Johnny Silverhand in the Movie
You guys should react to other awesome Star Wars fan films as well. There's literally an entire MENAGERIE of films out there! In fact, here's a recommendation from me right now: The Old Republic: Rescue Mission (2015). Give that film a reaction!
you gotta check out the SW fan film "Days Past" spoiler: there are no lightsabers… somehow it's still my favourite fan film... it's unique… the camera work, acting, Story, "character development" to me it's up there sharing first place with SWT's "Shards of the past" and "Darth Maul:Apprentice"
These people should've been contracted to work on a star wars film. This is the best star wars I've seen since the 80s. Also a anthology show that takes small events from side characters would be dope.

You guys liked this one, did you happen to see the Darth Vader fan film Shards of the past? It’s supposed to be the first in a triology of fan films created by Star Wars Theory
Watch Vader:shards of the past
Also look up Ben Schamma aka Maul Cosplay. He played Darth Maul here. He does great cosplays work including Kal Drago, Joel from the last of us and many others
Ima get me that mag 🤣🤣🤣
The Guy who played Maul did his own makeup. Its in the behind the scenes.
Damn haha, that's pretty awesome!

This film is basically canon at this point lol.
Yeah it's canon for me lmao
@@REYTRACER At this point there's no hurt in disney making it canon ... the choreography is better than anything they can put on a big screen lmao.
@@Jedilord882 there’s more to the story than just the obvious, use your gut to see it as canon, that’s where the truth remains.
The movie is just a scene of fight, it's not that hard to make it fit within canon... 🙄
I thought the same thinggg
It's a German project and was filmed in Germany and the Netherlands - one location is the so called Teufelsschlucht/Devil's Gorge.
Cool. Yeah I was thinking where they filmed it, as it looks like a lot of East/Southeast Ohio with the gorges where I grew up.
Damn haha, sounds like the perfect shooting location!
@@ReelRejects Definitely - according to one source it was named that way because people couldn't explain how it was formed (it was the ice age that split the rocks), so they thought it must have been the devil's handiwork.

@@ReelRejects it was filmed at the (volcano) Eifel at the rhineland and yeah, like mentioned some parts in the netherlands :)
yes it was Filmed by a Famus TH-camrs Brother the TH-camrs Name is Julien Bam But his Brother name is.... i Dont Realy Know

Disagree. He looked like he was going to show compassion. Then saw he was being watched and committed himself to kill her.

Jedi: We got you 5 to 1
Maul: I like those odds
Greg: "This is some great cinematography”
John: “Good shots too”
lol whoops 😅
And here you can see what Episode 7-9 are missing. Awesome lightsaber duels! (and yeah, a innovative plot, good written characters and so on - but to see people who know how to use a lightsaber is really satisfying)
Omg talk about a nerdgasm. If they made a Darth Maul movie I’d have the loudest nerdgasm ever. 😂
Is that a lightsaber in your pants or are you just happy to see this fan film.
Nethan Limongello maybe both 😂😉
They already kinda did, watch Siege of Mandalore
Well he is a big part of the Clone Wars animated series. Watch it if you haven't already.
RTNANDEZ96 I’ve watched it, and loved it. I’m actually doing a Star Wars binge right now. Watched The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. Now I’m watching Clone Wars and then Revenge of the sith. Yes I’m one of those people who has to watch it chronologically. 😂
I love this film and also for people who are wondering the reason he didn’t instantly kill her is because he knows how it feels to lose someone important to you because he was taken away from his mother.
True, although he also appreciates her fight to survive, and even beyond that, her potential as an apprentice is a huge part as well,
Nerdstorm Productions never thought of it like that before, pretty tragic when you consider Maul had basically lost everything by the time of Rebels.
Everything except for his Hatred for Kenobi.
Nerdstorm Productions he killed quigonn and would have killed obi wan tho
@@Fi_Sci_ and hatred for palpatine
I made a lightsaber edits that has a bunch of darth maul fights
This is 4 years late😄, no matter glad you guys reacted to it anyway.
I would absolutely love to see Ray Parks reaction to this.
Yes! The actor for Darth Maul in this fan film is amazing. His facial gestures are so realistic for Maul.
Ray Park met Ben Schema already multiple times and he is a big fan of this fan film. The togruta is Bens girfriend/wife (not sure at this time bc i met Ben over 3 years ago).
Still watch this all the time it’s just so good it just show Star Wars fan know how to tell a story...
Wow Darth Maul is always has been my Favorite Star Wars Villain of All!
I LOVE how Maul shows expressions of compassion everytime he is standing over the apprentice, about to kill her. Like he feels bad for her, almost as if he sees a bit of himself in her

Ok Zoom.
So dope u guys reacted to this! I actually count this in my canon movie Playlist of Star Wars... I start it before EP1 obviously💯
This has always been my fave fan vid!!! It's won awards.

Phenomenal. You both are rocking it. You both are dope!
16:14
Subtitles: I let this n******* here for you. And every kid has made you stronger.
Thank you guys for the excellent breakdown!
There is a behind the scenes for Darth Maul: Apprentice.
BTW, the editing on this video is amazing. Keep it up!
man i got chills at the end, amazing
This was a fucking amazing throwback for me today and your reaction was even better! This film is excellent
PewDiePie did so good in this, I’m so proud of him
I cant unsee it 😂
Vi Dan Tran who was the stunt coordinator on this project, landed a stunt choreographer position on the AMC show Into The Badlands and now is doing stunts for the new Dune film.
That shot where Maul stabs the Pewdiepie looking guy has to be a callback to when Malgus stabs Ven Zallow in the SWTOR trailer
About time. I knew you guys would dig this.
Fun fact about this film this project took a year to finish this what I called commitment. Plus if this was cannon it would explain why the Jedi council didn’t know about Maul
I saw this years ago. An amazing short film
i like the way, how the jedi master looks down on maul, making an little hole in his jacket, after maul killed almost all his friends
I remember seeing this as a pop up video on I think either Facebook or Twitter a couple months ago.
If They Call Obi Wan With The High Ground, These Jedis Will Be Alive 😎
You guys should react to Bucketheads next. It's a good short film about the Galactic Civil War from the Storm Trooper side, they even got the voice actor of Commander Shepherd to play a Storm Commander.
I can't believe you guys hadn't seen this before, its been on YT for over four years.!!!
One of the first video's i put a 👍 on.!
This is a great fan film, one of the best around, its like a Prequel to
" The Duel of the Fates Battle".!
Disney should get these guys in to fix their Star Wars.!!!
i love this fan made film, and the guy who played Maul was badass. The first time I saw this long ago I thought it was Zachary Quinto playing him.
The guy who did Palpatine does a really great job with the impression.
The next fan film you should check out is Vader Shards Of The Past.
cole schubert they both didn’t react to it but one of them did. I’m assuming it’s almost a certainty the other has seen it in his own time by now.
You should check out Ryan vs Dorkman 2. It's an old video but genuinely some of the best light saber combat I have ever seen.
They shot that at the Eifel. In Germany. It is a place with lots of forests in Nordrhein-Westfalia. I hope that helps.
Man i watched around when it first came out and i haven't seen it in a long while i foget how fucking badass this is
I have been blessed by the entrance of this video into my life
This is the only video where the sponser is as interesting as the actual content
ST wishes its choreography was this good.
It follows the OT rough style
Everything Star Wars wishes it was this good. And that's saying a lot
@Static Gaming Not sure what your point is... my point is that the ST saber choreography is a regression.

@@bek8543 Unfortunately I have, the throne room fight in TLJ is the prime example of the terrible saber choreography from the Sequel Trilogy.
Hey Greg and John, I was just wondering if you could maybe tell us who your favorite star wars characters are? Mine personally is Darth Maul
Finally. this one is years on the ether….I love it!
the people behind T7Pro are awesome. they've done tons of fight scenes, both for movies and tv shows like into the badlands (their best work, IMO, but i am biased).
Most Star Wars fan films take place in the woods somewhere. It's a thing.
he smelt his hand hahahaha 7:26
How have you not seen this!
That “do it” at 15:10 was perfect😂
Wow. I had forgotten how good this was.
Only just saw this reaction by you guys...love it. Would also strongly recommend the Star Wars fan film "Rescue Mission" if you haven't seen it. Also excellent.

Yooo, thats awesome!
The hesitation in maul with some of the kills is interesting because it shows he’s still learning to not have compassion
Yo i liked this vid the moment Darth Maul did this... 4:21
Sick lightsaber play
If shipping for those Magazines wasent 32$ is buy both of them
Darth Maul is one of my favorite characters!
It was made in Germany boys you can see the making on TH-cam too
Never been so quick in my life
"It was cauterized I guess."
Maul: "So is this." *_activate slice and dice_*
Wait they never reacted to this lol 😅
"No one makes me bleed my own blood!"

Now you guys need to check out HFP Kenobi video another very well done Star Wars video.
The guy with the face mask realizing there's a bigger threat than maul.
Good catch, I've been waiting for people to notice more stuff like that, but it never happens
Jeez these guys are using force as invisible ball of stone 😂
Better than anything Disney could ever do (with the exception of the Mandolorian, Solo, & Rogue One)

Despite all being german their accents are incredible
so when's part two coming?!? I need this
Mauls one of the best star wars characters ever imo... and yes... so much better than the disney fights
Dude, how did you guys JUST get to watching this, haha?!?!
And, after we've been locked down for MONTHS!

The BTS for this are very interesting. Should go have a look
you gotta check out the SW fan film "Days Past"
spoiler: there are no lightsabers… somehow it's still my favourite fan film... it's unique…
the camera work, acting, Story, "character development"
to me it's up there sharing first place with SWT's "Shards of the past" and "Darth Maul:Apprentice"
You guys should really look at Galactic Battles. Its a fan-film with a $4000 budget that surrounds Star Wars, Star Trek, Halo, and Mass Effect
Watched this high as fuck; great reaction, man 🤘😎🔥💨💨💨 11:05 "use the force harry"???? 😂
These people should've been contracted to work on a star wars film. This is the best star wars I've seen since the 80s. Also a anthology show that takes small events from side characters would be dope.
Like how this one scene is better than all the Disney versions
They also have done a fan film for Cyberpunk -> cyberpunk 2077 phoenix program
