General Grievous vs Jedi (Full scene)

- General Grievous fights six Jedi in the original Clone Wars cartoon made by the Cartoon Network and Lucasfilm. I got the complete scene by piecing together other TH-cam videos. Anyway this is just my way of paying respect to the original Clone Wars cartoons that have been replaced by the animated Clone Wars (the new 3D series).

“Would you fight General Grievous for a Scooby Snack?”
YES WAGGY
cowlord Looks like the Jedi got no Scooby Snacks lol.
@@rexlumontad8078 well it was worth knowing him
raoh the king of fists Shame he didn't get to go down swinging but died unceremoniously.
imagine if he said zoinks when he was crushed
A reminder that Grievous was originally fucking terrifying. Wish they kept this up in Episode III.
I kind of find him hard to take seriously in this series with that voice. His current voice is so much better.
Spoiler: Windu damaged his lungs.
kartoffel Salat You forgot that the final episode of this series where Grievous gets his chest crushed takes place AFTER the Clone Wars series does. Grievous just has a better voice in the canon timeline.
Ben Merrill did you see last minutes?
@WILLIAM WEST yep. Cuz he was afraid that would be another one Jedi who could hurt his lungs. Unfortunately he found that guy😂
The fact that this was the character’s debut was so badass
In his first character appearance alone he killed half of the Jedi there.
It's a shame the Greivous we have now is so radically different from when he was first introduced.
I didn’t grow up with this series and I wish I did
@@firetools what’s the grievous we have now?
He reckt 3 members of the councel, space shaggy, space naruto and whatever the other one is
@@chscelebrity8325 the prequel grievous
Grievous saying he's merciful by granting the Jedi a warrior's death fits his character so incredibly well.
Remnants of his Kaleesh warrior heritage.
Indeed.
Listen I love this scene as much as the next bloke but that's one of the most common things a villain says. Ever. XD
I gotta say, Shakti holds her ground alone pretty well, and she avoided the fatal blow
@@wilder11Doesn't change how well it fits. Crying about it is weird.
2003: Defeats 5 jedi, 2 of which are on the high council, ends up killing 2 of them.
2008: Cant even defeat Ahsoka.
Defeats 6 jedi, kills 3
+Buğra Alparslan He killed K'Krukh, it just didn't stick because he's the Kenny of Star Wars
+Eli Burry-Schnepp But K'Krukh didn't survived the Disney Purge.
Conrado Javier That's what they want you to think. The glory of the hat will never die!
+Buğra Alparslan He was obviously far more intelligent, cunning, and even honorable in this series of the Clone Wars. in the new cgi series, hes sadistic, cowardly, and an idiot. should have kept him the way he was in this cartoon.
The fact that it took an ambush from an ENTIRE platoon, INCLUDING their aircraft, to make him commence a TACTICAL retreat really goes to show how much of a badass Grievous is.
And they had to immediately leave because if they stayed any longer Grievous would’ve monkey’d his way out to ambush THE SHIP
Not to the squad that pulled up were some of the first arc troopers just shows good Grevious was
@owenvanbokhorst4174 Then he casually with almost zero effort kills like 3 of em. Dude, just...killed...three of the best clones ever made, one man armies like it was a standered Tuesday....
2003 General Grievous: 🐐🗿🍷
2005 General Grievous: ♿🧠🚫
Don't forget his lungs 💀💀
At least 2005 has the excuse that windu crippled him
2008 General Grievous: 🦨💩🚮♿⚠️🚫
2024 General Grievous: 😈 😈 💀
@@Ale-dd3ek yeah but it feels... Kinda forced in. Windu crushes Grievous' lungs, and from quite the distance. Why didn't he think of that previously?
"General Grievous will run and hide like he always does - he's a coward."
UM...
Yeah cause challenging a jedi master with an army of super clones makes you a coward.
The force crush is absolutely no longer canon and he was just always like that according to Disney.
What a bunch a bullshit.
Pepe's Kebabs
To be fair, he kind of reedemed himself on the comics, killing Mother Talzin and doing pretty well against Asajj Ventress. But this Grievous is still badass.
TheAwesomeDarkNinja This cartoon is long before Clone Wars 2008.... Blame Dooku because he told grievous it best to run away
Since The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi & Battlefront 2 we no longer consider Disney canon.
Honestly the best part for me is at 4:32, something I never appreciated as a kid. At this point, if my memory serves, we didn't know Grievous had any organic material in him. He was just the Droid General. So when he turns and reveals an organic eye, meaning there's an organic brain in that metal shell calling the shots and performing those moves, it's terrifying. Also the fact that the eye betrays no emotion. No glee, no joy, no fear, no surprise, nothing. Just Grievous hunting Jedi like prey.
Honestly I think it would've been scarier (for the Jedi) if he was entirely a droid. The big contrast in the militaries of the Clone Wars was that the separatists had quantity, not quality. The Jedi and Republic overcame the overwhelming numbers of the droid threat by having better troops, better coordination, and the elite Jedi. Imagine the concern the Jedi have when see one droid absolutely annihilate an entire squad of Jedi. Now imagine their fear once they realize that droids are mass producible, and there could be more than one General Grievous.
@@wrongchew3423 Which was what originally made the IG-100 "MagnaGuards" so scary. A mere droid capable of going toe to toe with and even killing most Jedi. Ofcourse, retcons and bad writing have reduced them to a gimmick that even a novice can effortlessly destroy entire squads of in seconds. Similarly with what happened to Grievous.
@@ForsakenDreamer7Were those the same model as Grievous' bodyguards in Episode 3? At least there that movie did them some justice. As a droid, to last any amount of time against the likes of Skywalker and Kenobi is impressive
@@baron3904 Yes, those two were the very first models in the IG-100 series: IG-101 that fought Kenobi and IG-102 that fought Skywalker. In the novel, which is based on the older version of the movie's script, the fight was much longer and had the MagnaGuards actually landing hits on and overwhelming the two Jedi.
@@ForsakenDreamer7Cool I need to read that again
When you realize that Grevious is the only being to defeat Shaggy:
He was so quick that Shaggy couldn't use 0,000000000000000001% of his power
I don't get it
@@uchihashuji3449 There's a youtuber who does star wars jedi stuff, and he looks exactly like shaggy from scooby doo.
@@uchihashuji3449 im pretty sure its in a reference to the popular meme a few years back where Shaggy from scooby doo was actually an insanely strong character with powers.

“And the others?”
“They are all dead, sir. Especially your padawan, like man is he dead. Grievous really, I mean really did him in. Nothing left but red paste... sir.”
"In all honesty, I'm surprised that not even the clothes survived. It was literally just a red splatter. It's a bit impressive, sir."
Except one who played dead
That first guy who ran in was a complete idiot
Nerd Dragon yeah he’s a joke character. His name is Sha’a gi, a reference to the scooby doo character shaggy.
@@Tokenlightskin_ Ironic, because this version had absolutely no chill
Dang man...almost 20 years later, and this still gets my heart racing from the suspense. Tartakovsky is a genius
😂
Yes, he is. He's just born in a time where he's not being appreciated because well, he refuses idealized characters and ideas. In short, his work prompts questions and not answers, which producers (propagandists) hate.
oh, it makes sense now. Dude is the GOAT.
@@Marcara081What is blud actually waffling about?! Tartakovsky is plenty admired today. The very comment you responded to was only 8 months ago as of this reply! No idea what narrative this is you've created here of his victimization.
@@Christopher-qq4dlright (July 21st,2023 and August 11th,2023/🙂).
The sheer awesomeness when he called for backup and the ship near instantly blows through the hull of the wreckage as the music cuts out and grevious stares down the ship… it’s unreal!
Gunship is best boi
Excessive fire power was not in Fordo’s dictionary
That’s why Tartakovsky is masterclass
I've realized this Grevious is so good against Jedi because he fights with a completely unique style. When Jedi are practicing or even fighting Sith, the opponent will have at most two lightsabers and will almost always be using a recognizable form. There's no way to prepare for an enemy who can spin their torso 360 degrees and wield 3+ blades at once while breakdancing
Also, sith and jedi use the force to fight as well which means they both know each others moves a little bit before its shown, not with grievous tho, he has almost no connection to it and that makes him 100 times more deadlier to those who rely on it. Same with magna gaurds and anti jedi droids
you can analyze the crap out of this fight just to see how Grevious fights. example
Fear tactics: 2:49 (more then once honestly)
Divide and conquer: 3:25
staggering opponents/keeping opponents unfocused: 3:39
also keeping opponents off guard by keeping tactics of fighting unpredictable
man i wish this Grievous was cannon....
He also used fear tactics, shown targeting the youngest Jedi here and overwhelming the rest. This Grievous was the best!
@@chimerical8746 him not having a force connection makes him weaker not stronger lmao all he can do is use sabers all they have to do is force crush his lungs like windu did
@@mr.angryman3599 I mean for sure he'd be way stronger if he could use the force, but just because he can't doesn't mean you can sleep on him either. Mace was able to do that because he got the jump on Grievous, but it's usually the other way around. And though hypotheticals probably don't matter much, it might be worth noting that most other jedi probably wouldn't do that if they got the jump on Grievous since jedi are only supposed to use the force for defense, but Mace has no chill.
Something to point out: Grevious isn't even using all his arms, he was still holding that ace up his sleeve while taking out several Jedi single handedly
He is one of my favorite characters in the entire series. Too bad that Grievous can't be animated properly because it would cost a shitton of money.
I think he didn’t have 4 arms at that point. He was later operated on by the guys that anakin killed, who gave him the 2 additional arms
@@keremtukel8178 He did. By the time he was training with Dooku before the battle of Geonosis he already had the split lines on his arms.
The fact grievous got kiadi mundi the absolute pllar of jedi orthodoxy pissing his pants in fear and demanding his clones that grievous be shot down is a testament to just how remarkable grievous is in his element.
His major downfall was taking a direct approach to combat , counter to door's teachings
Bro had him shook to his core
Also the fact grievous is not force compatible at all. Though there was a side story I read were it basically implied before he underwent the surgery to become the cyborg his body was force sensitive but it's now lost to him cause well he's 95% machine now
@@yesshh2952 That was in a Canon comic. In Legends it's a bit different. It's somewhat implied that Grievous was mildly Force sensitive and that it didn't change after he became a cyborg. He saw visions of the future, was able to sense Anakin's emotions and single him out among countless Republic starfighters during a space battle, and felt the essense of the Jedi he killed in their lightsabers that he collected. Altough it's really unconfirmed.
Grevious: "I will grant you a warrior's death."
Also Grevious as he squashes padawan Shaggy like a bug: "SIKE!"
Shaggy was a warrior bug
Grievous: "I said Jedi... And you aren't a Jedi yet, are you, padawan?"
A warrior’s death, indeed
Well he died in battle so that might count.
He just ran like an idiot,didn't deserve a warrior's death
Then they nerfed him
To be fair Obi Wan couldn't have killed him by himself if he fought THIS Grievous.
@@hououinkyouma3864 But then again, this Grievous would be wounded by Mace Windu and have only 4 days before fighting Kenobi. With crushed lungs,
yeah.
@@hououinkyouma3864 i think it would have been cool to see obi wan single handly take this grievous down it would show how skilled obi wan really was in comparison to the other jedi...obi wan was also known as being one of the best defensive jedis and only striking when the opponent made mistakes or rushed so i think it would have been awesome to see
@@bensheldon4496
Well the thing is Obi Wan was excelled in lightsaber duels but Grievous didn't use the traditional styles. This Grievous almost killed 2 Jedi masters at the same time without breaking a sweat.
Well he did get his lungs crushed by mace
I don’t care what anyone says, this is the single greatest scene in all of Star Wars.
For me.... well, yeah, is a the best XD Close second, is Vader at the of Rouge One, that was.... magnificent!
@@euroanez998 If there’s ever a Grievous movie, it needs to have a scene referencing that.
Vader with 4 (or even 5) lightsabers. _shudders_
Lucas' biggest mistake was not having this version of Grievous in the movies.
@@euroanez998 totally agreed, that was amazing!
@@grendel3218 Grievous was only in one movie though, right? (Revenge of the Sith)
4:37 That second where he was utterly shocked at Grievous’ 3 lightsaber stance using his own lightsaber was so impactful. Yes, on its own it is a very simple very shocked expression, but the context of the reaction being from a master jedi realising he is fighting a complete monster of an opponent and that it matches perfectly with Grievous’ other blue lightsaber gave me chills. It shows how unbelievably powerful Grievous is and how he really is a monstrous jedi hunter.
At 4:49 he even looks back down in confusion, like he hasn’t even seen anything like that before
@@admiral_freeze7248holy fuck the leap and leg sweep he pulls ITS INSANE 🔥🔥
the leg sweep is cool but doesn't grievous have 4 arms?
@@Anunnamedtank yeah, he just uses them when shit gets real 🤣 in this faithful to the lore version of Grievous he doesn't need to use all his arms for the Jedi he fought. I'd say he'd need all 4 arms to fight people like Windu, Yoda, or a more mature Anakin. Cuz those 3 were powerful duelists
i feel like if you're fighting 6 jedi you'd wanna use 4 lightsabers
2:40 "zoinks! Like, gee Mundi! General Grevious is coming! Let's run for it!" -Jedi Shaggy
Rip in spaghetti, never forgetti.
His name is Sha gi
...Actually?
Yep, actually...
Evolved Turtle Productions
Yes, he was actually based off shaggy
If Ki-adi worried less about the droid attack on the wookiees & more on general grievous than maybe shaggy would have survived
Steel 74. W H A T. A B O U T. T H E W O O K I E S?
Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise?
No joke, character's name is listed as Sha'a Gi
*Wookiees
I fucking love this comment
I remember how terrifying this was as a kid. Watching Grevious mow through the Jedi shocked 5 year old me. Also the Arc Troopers are the real MVP's
Without the force to defend, guns do work.
@@guyver441Given how the jedi were wiped out during order 66, guns work even with the force as long as you’ve got enough of them
@@smolgobbo3826 I mean yeah, the lasgun is the most effective weapon in 40K too...when using thousands of them at once.
Poor Shaggy.... that's one mystery he won't ever solve.
As much as I love the 2008 Clone Wars series, this will always be the best portrayal of Grievous.
This is what he SHOULD have been like.
AdmiralOctopus- Agreed friend. I liked Grievous, but THIS is what we needed to see. A Jedi killing machine that's pretty much the Grim Reaper with Lightsabers. Even if it's pretty OP, this is how Grievous goes on a hunt.
AdmiralOctopus if he had the voice of the canon grievous he would be perfect
canon grevious's voice is shit
this voice is far better and fitting of the character.
+Finbar Brolly
2003 Grievous being OP actually made sense if you think about it. The CIS needed some kind of OP balancing factor against the jedi who effortlessly destroyed countless platoons of battle droids by themselves. It honestly made no sense that the CIS were even a threat with how ludicrously superior the jedi and clone army were in every way. Having a smart, powerful leader who could tip these scales would explain how the CIS were a threat; a role that Grievous was supposed to fulfill in this series.
joshua kim Well the Jedi got their asses kicked at geonosis before the clones arrived so I don’t think that is the reason, or at least the only reason. More like they needed a competent general and the Jedi killer badass was a plus.
What they did to him in the CG cartoon was unforgivable.
infamous chapter 25
Getting his ass handed to him by Gungans
What they did to Dukoo was as bad or worse. Or hell Thrawn portrayal in Ahsoka. At this point it's safe to sat Filoni can't write villians
@@vonfaustien3957 Dooku and Palparine were great in Clone wars and Feloni wrote them. But yeah since then he hasnt written any spectacular villians
@@vonfaustien3957as much problems i have with filoni, it was acually george's idea to make him weak, because in his mind he thought he would be similar too vader.
3:52 it's really impressive that K'kruhk survives from that strike and lives longer than all of them even joining Luke's new jedi order
What?
@@illseeyaonthedarksideofthemoon That character somehow survives this encounter(Don't remember how) and they appeared in other old EU stories.
@@SOMEGUY7893 Who the fuck look at some random folder and thought "we should really expand on this jedi that, for all intents, is dead"?
@@illseeyaonthedarksideofthemoon They didn't expand on a "dead" Jedi. K'Kruhk already had a huge presence in the EU by that time.
I love all the small details we get with Grevious. Most comments note his tactics, fighting prowess, unique style, etc. but I love the small detail of him having 4 other sabers on his belt (we see when Ki Adi Mundi "steals" one) and that he takes the lightsabers as trophies from the Jedi he's killed in this battle. Such small details, but it tells such a interesting backstory that the audience and imagine. All in one short appearence
"Jedi....you are surrounded, your armies decimated, make peace with the force now. For this is your final hour. But know that I, General Grievous, am not completely without mercy. I will grant you a warrior's death. Prepare!"
when did shaggy became a padawan? oO
+TheHorreK2 ever since he decided to quit working with the gang and thought this would make more money. jk the reason he is in there I cause the creators wanted to give a nod to the Scooby do series thus putting him here and spelling his name sha'a gi
+airsoft community132 Sha'a Gii. I get it now....
+TheHorreK2 On Scooby's recommendation and on the condition he not say 'Zoiks!'
+NeidalRuekk Good thing he says Zoinks then! ;)
Atomic Robo Tesla I sit/stand corrected
The sheer terror and desperation in ki adi mundi’s voice when he says “shoot him down, shoot him down!” Is such good voice acting. He had just witnessed this monster brutally murder 3 of his friends and critically injure 2 others.
Exact mundi is a sociopath.
This isn't like him
Well he thought that the 2 were dead
Makes it even better when dooku said you must break them. He made ki adi mundi hysterical and anxiously fearful. Especially since he was trying to be the more level headed one in the group
Same with Fordo's "Backup NOW!" Line. Like it's one of the few times where is a hint of panic in his voice. Not even when he was being overrun on Coruscant did he have that hint of concern
The fact that I felt worried for the ship and the pilot when Fordo called for backup says a lot about how intimidating this Grievous is...
One thing that really exemplifies why this grevious is such a powerhouse is just how agile he is. Yes, he uses fear tactics and uses his cyborg body is significantly cooler ways than otherwise seen (My guy literally wall runs and uses his feet to both attack and hold things) but I think it wouldn't be nearly as impactful without his ridiculous amounts of agility. His unorthodox fighting style is only achieved due to the high maneuverability of his actions. If only 2008 allowed grevious to fight like this
It’s a bit unfortunate that the producers planned General Grievous to be cunning, but a coward. I didn’t mind it as a kid. But now, I wished they made him stronger towards the end of The Clone Wars, as this would have explained how he gained the strength to defeat Shaak Ti during Revenge of the Sith.
Not only that but he’s overly agile, nimble and fast despite weighing almost the same as an adult rhino, when he lands in the middle of the Jedi he makes the ground rumble and scatters dust around, my man heavy as hell yet he’s strong enough to be THAT agile and acrobatic, this iteration of Grievous is a freaking *demon*
Now THIS is how you introduce a villain.
I love how griveous shows some respect for the jedi and wishes to give them “a warrior’s death”, something very important to the Kaleesh people
And then he squashes Shaggy like a fly
@@yasininn76 yeah, it was more like a morbid joke, he doesnt see the jedi that help to slaugher his people as great warriors
Well to be fair, that was a cowards move on sha’gis part, grievous probably didn’t see him as a warrior
@@dreamerofryleh4016 of course not he's part of the gang.
@@dreamerofryleh4016 Lol, I see what you did there
I wish we could have kept this version of Grievous canon. Notice how he seems to fight almost impulsively. If you've ever seen HK-47's tips on how to kill Jedi, he'll tell you that you want to be spontaneous and make stuff up on the spot so that the Jedi can't predict what you'll do next.
Ooh, good point. Grevious seems very skilled at moving faster than one can think.
Aight this just reminded me that the Reason why Taskmaster is afraid to face Deadpool is because he's too insane and unpredictable so he can't copy his fighting style which is literally what he does to beat people...but since that doesn't work well can't do much against him
So basically give Deadpool two lightsabers and watch him kill Jedi for fun
Is it not Canon? I mean you can always pretend it's Canon.
So just be confusing and there'll be no survivors, gotcha.
@@lazarus9165
If you don't know what you're doing, then the enemy sure as hell won't.
The Kill at 4:00 might be the most brutal kill in any star wars media. Imagine Disney giving that the green these days.
He did the same thing in Clone Wars 2003, albeit EVEN MORE BRUTAL
I like how the Jedi are trying to hide in the dark while holding giant glow sticks! 🤣🤣🤣
I think they were heading to the center of the construct so that they could make defensive adjustments
So sad that Grievous wasn't as frightening in Episode III, and the later Clone Wars series had to base their portrayal on that :(
+Cybermat47 Grievous still kicked ass in 2008
+Kaiser Franz Josef I true, but he didn't kick as much ass. I liked the bit where he killed the Jedi with a blaster while they were in a sabre-lock, though - that was awesome.
i know that
+Mysterious Maximus cus he almost crushed his heart and damaged his organ's which is why he has that cough and breathing problem, which could effect his fighting abilities
+Ryan Im Not anymore. That's been declared non-canon. In the new version, he always had that cough and just sucks.
No one would survive if he used his other two hands
The two jedis that died protecting Palpatine can ensure that XD
They were lucky that Grievous didn’t have four lightsabers yet
Payden Haught actually, if you look closer, you can see that Grievous has at least 5 lightsabers in his waist
He was just entertaining.
He didn't have the other two arms at the time
I think the coolest thing in Grievous’ fighting style is the way he utilizes his feet, he’s so articulate and acrobatic and it reminds me a lot of Raiden from Metal Gear
There’s something haunting about the glare Grievous gives to Shaak Ti while he’s wailing on her with his sabers.
Yeaaaaaa he gives off that "im going to kill you no matter what stare" i think he also does it to install fear into them as well to hinder their connection to the force
@@taejoonpark9613who WOULDN'T lose their concentration when a nine foot tall walking apocalypse is bearing down on them with murder in its eyes?
@@jeremyallen5974 absolutely 😂😂
This should be the canon Grievous, not the one in ROTS that dies from a simple *uncivilized* blaster.
To be fair, legends explained it pretty fairly.
Grievous didn't have the force and was a bad blocker, so it would have hit him regardless.
Not only that, but Kaleesh organs were said to be extremely flammable.
I don't know why Disney changed the second though.
Though I do agree this Grievous should be canon instead of 3d and ROTs
He had his lungs crushed, he couldn’t fight that well after that
@@oceanman964 also, his lungs were crushed by Mace Windu prior to 4 days before their duel
To be fair, there's no better way to die than by the hands of Obi Wan, especially after he says "hello there"
This makes me think of the recent epic Darth Vader scene in Rogue One. Brutal and terrifying
Both had no competition and both were slaughters
Victor M That Vader scene was disappointing, heard that Vader goes crazy, but we only see him for a few seconds
The real payoff of that scene isn't the combat, but the reaction shot when the troopers see Darth Fucking Vader ready to kill all of them. Fear incarnate.
Victor M actually the scene was only that. Btw when disney made the reshoots they added that scene because it wasn't in the movie before.
The scene was just Darth Vader fanservice
Have to come back to this moment from time to time, even 20+ years later. Tartakovsky really gave us the absolute best depiction of how terrifying and menacing Grievous was meant to be. Those multiple robotic arms and erratic movement perfectly being too much for Seasoned Jedi masters to handle.
Like this '03 show had Mace Windu Singlehandedly take out an entire army of Klankers just to follow up with several jedi murdered by Grievous.
"i will grant you a warriors death"
vs
"time to abandon ship"
God his pure white design as opposed to his dirty-yellow color in Revenge of the Sith is so cool, just this pristine white monster killing everyone is so rad
Rasamatazz Cleaner design makes more sense here too because this was before Grievous sustained heavy injury from a fight and was a constant asthmatic.
He wasn't yellow in Revenge of the Sith, he was still White, just not as clean as he was here. Since according to the message from the Jedi who asked Obi-wan for help, this was Grievous' first battle or so.
MZX Omega he was a tarnish yellow
MZX Omega tanish
I love his contrast with the background! Makes him stand out even more and shows how different he is from all the other darker, dirty looking characters. Shows that he hasn’t been effected by this fight like they have.
when youre a high level and you go back to the starting area
But you find a high level player too
tfw you're a high level ganking a starting zone, but then their alts and guildmates show up
No words can express my reaction when this episode released and my little 8 year old self watched it. I had no idea at the time, that I was gonna witness peak TV Star Wars.
5 Jedi, 19 arc troopers, a gunship. All to face one warrior. And they lost with 2 dead Jedi and 4 dead arc troopers, and injuring 2 council members. 2003 grievous was such a menace.
Grievous was fucking awesome in this cartoon.
Too bad Windu turned him into a bitch just before Episode III.
+SassySalt Man, fuck Lucas... After the original trilogy was released, it was almost as though he was doing everything in his power to ruin *his own* legacy, and it always makes me sad when I think about what the prequels could have been without his atrocious direction.
+SassySalt The problem is he already had that, he had it in Dooku! Just keep Dooku around longer and have Grevious be his attack dog like he was meant to be!
+VideoGameLova1 Because Grevious would somehow make the trilogy better? He would dumb down Jedis, so freakin' much.. He already does!. He's basicly 99% machine, there's no reason why every single Jedi wouldn't be able to Force Push this dude back to Oblivion.
+atomiicpunk A force push doesn't destroy a machine. It only worked on Battle Droids because their soo fragile. And as you saw from the series, he's too swift to keep down in one location. That's before his Space Asthma got bad.
zillafire101 Grab? If you can choke someone to death, I'm pretty sure you can hold someone down aswell. If you can lift a spacecraft, im pretty sure you can lift a cyborg.
If you can catch solid big-ass metal objects flying towards you, you should be able to stop someone jumping around , etc etc.
I’m seeing people say “why don’t you force grab him” they tried, bro is fucking faster than the force 3:37
Our first introduction to seeing General Grievous. Still sends chills down my spine.
Grievous in Clone Wars: wall-crawling whirlwind of death that can solo five Jedi.
Grievous in ep. III: "HANG ON A SECOND I HAVE ASTHMA!"
It's because Mace Windu crushed his lungs at the end of the 2003 series. Plus, they had to dial him back or he would be too tough to work into the movie (although with good writing they could have done it.)
If you’ve saw chapter 25 of this series you’ll know why he has a cough.
@@forgottenrights351 They should have had Palps take him out. Or Skywalker when he did the rest of the CIS leaders. He could have backstabbed him. Anything would have been better than the fan service that was Kenobi shooting him.
@@worndown8280 It would have been cool to see Anakin totally lose it on Grievous, releasing all his rage that he had been taught to suppress when fighting. He could throw some stuff with the Force to balance out Grievous' physical strength and speed. I completely agree.

Can't begin to express how much this scene changed my life when it came to drawing and writing. It's pretty much perfect. So many elements are at play, every character has a personality and every emotion they wanted you to feel, you felt it....all in like a 3 minute time frame.
This is the REAL Grievous. When I tell people that one of my favorite Star Wars characters is "General Grievous," this is the one I'm talking about. He doesn't make many appearances, but he's the best new villain of the prequels when he's living up to his full potential as a character.
Yep. I agree. “I love General Grievous” is specific to this version of him. I don’t acknowledge every other on-screen portrayal of him.
This version is far more in line with someone born from a littreal warrior race then the cringe dork one we get in the movies.
This will always be my favorite Grievous too, but given that every single other appearance is far less impressive I think we have to assume he just isn't this good. I wish they had done this scene with 5 unnamed Jedi and one council member, that would fit within the legends told about Grievous and explain why everyone is so afraid of him. But taking on 3 *master* jedi while they're backed up by 2 other knights? Even this Grievous should have lost, right? Idk this is such an amazing scene and such a fun Grievous to watch so maybe there's an argument that makes him the better portrayal, but a part of me feels like we're lying to ourselves.
@@SmokeyMountainSuccubus I think it's fair that he did what he did, because part of his tactics are fear and demoralization. He cornered them, psyched them out, then did a classic divide and conquer with overwhelming force and surprising tactics.
In some ways, their numbers worked against them because they were trying to defend one another and rushed in to fight. Every engagement was on Grievous' terms.
@@WokeandProud And from that cringe TCW series
Anyone else see the new Tales of the Empire clip? Glad to see our boy’s back in a action.
6:30 “And so it began”
2:43 I just laughed when shaggy just yelled and ran out 😂😂 man he's got some balls to just run out recklessly like that before getting squashed by grievous I sure never expected that from a jedi lol 😂😂
I interpreted it as him just losing it. Like, imagine if you had a sword in a dark room and a skilled assassin gave a speech challenging you.
At any moment, you could just get stabbed in the back. The safest option is to stay where you are.
That’s what that kid was going through.
I can only imagine a Star Wars game where you are the Padawan and live through a moment like this for your character to build up their experience in combat.
I love how Grievous used fear, intimidation, and surprise like Dooku taught him. Fear was from him stopping the droid assault, intimidation from his speech, and surprise was a by product of pulling the prior two off perfectly.
I love ❤️ lol 😂
And death from above to kill one of the jedi did not hurt either.
1:26 skubi doo
I mean he coukd have just used the droid army to finish them but he wanted to prove how strong he was (and to his credit very thoroughly accomplished that)
2:34 I love how well depicted the difference of stature between Padawan, Knight and Master is. The padawans sweating and jerking his head left and right with his saber drawn, the knight has his weapon drawn too but is steady and on guard, while the Master doesn't even have his saber on and is just listening.
except immediately after that it shows the master sweating too.
@@kreuzer9877 But you can tell the difference. The Master is on guard, and is listening, while the Padawan is terrified, and paranoid. Maybe they both are sweating, but there's a clear difference in their behavior.
This says a lot about society
It’s called Form zero of lightsaber combat
And is interesting how altered Ki Adi is by 5:52
Grevious is just amazing. He was my favorite Star Wars character for a while.
I wished we had this grievous in the live action but the fact they nerfed him is just sad I wish we had more time with this grievous
One thing I love about this fight is we get to see Grevious' tactical mind at play too. He opens up the fight in a demoralising way by killing the Padawan and quickly identifies Ki Adi Mundi as the leader.
There he ambushes them and tries to take out Ki Adi first but when he pushes Ki Adi to using his force abilities, he switches to evasive manoeuvres and avoids the masters until he has taken out the other lesser jedi. From there he uses his spinning blades and unorthodox fighting style to disoriente the exhausted jedi and isolate them. When he is ambushed by the arc troopers he quickly resorts back to evasion and tries to close the distance asap and calls it game only when the gunship arrives.
Your observation is rather impressive. May I assume some sort of prior combat training?
@@canderoussnurd4265 I wish. I wanted to join the navy but because I had asthma as a child, I was rejected. A bit pedantic but what can you do? Martial arts and HEMA are big hobbies of mine though.
@The “Meat Chopper” yeah. It begs the question why that droid army just let the gunships fly right over them though. I know it was going really fast but they didn't even try to shoot at it
@@scipioafricanus2212 grevious had them halt and hold fire assuming it was just the Jedi I assume the droids didn't fire because he never ordered them to
@@scipioafricanus2212 The clones blew up some bombs Which destroyed a part of the droid army giving them an opening to escape
"Do not despair, we are Jedi!"
The fact that you are Jedi is exactly why you don't have a chance.
General Grievous is absolutely the most badass character in the entire Canon. Dude came from a planet far beyond the outer rim, has all the reasons needed to legitimately hate the Jedi and managed to become the master tactician behind the Separatist Army. The guy is literally worshiped as a god in his home planet, and with just few years of training alongside Count Dooku, he manged to become a Jedi hunter despite not being force-sensitive in the slightest.
And to top it all off, he managed to create his own lightsaber form, combining four lightsabers, ALL STOLEN FROM JEDI HE KILLED. Dude is absolutely the GOAT.
and: „the party is over” one grab and crush ; D but that was Windu, normal situation haha 💜
he only uses 2 lightsabers in the majority of the scene, him using 4 was insane
I honestly wish this version of Grievous was canon. The fact that they needed a whole Dropship to finally get him to run away is just crazy and shows how powerful he is. In my heart, somehow, I like to think this is the canon version of Grievous :(
Agree. I still consider Legends as the true canon to Star Wars, not this Disney bullshit with it’s sequel trilogy (true, current Star Wars canon has some good stuff, but not as memorable or well known as Legends stuff).
Mace Windu nerfed this man so hard he completely changed his personality
Bro made him russian
I love bad writing
severe emotional/mental trauma can do that
Maybe that's why
He underestimated jedis but after getting crushed by mace he got ptsd
@@stefdiazdiaz7067more like bad writing
Sha'a Gi, no! What will the Jedi tell his childhood friend Vell Ma now?
Montesama314 Or his talking vornskr Skubi'du?
Banchoking and what about D'aph ni, and Freid Hi?
Montesama314 its Ve elle Ma I think ..
+Montesama314 Took me a second reading to get this joke. XD
+Montesama314 i mostly feel for his wookie friend scooh bedooh
What I like about Grevious is that he isn't force sensitive. He has no supernatural powers or advantages, yet he beats jedi. He's a better swordsman and he needs no sorcerous tricks to win.
Instead he needs wildly superhuman attributes and durability.
Artificial super powers, but super powers nonetheless.
Still gives me the chills 10+ years later.
Single handedly fights 2 jedi masters 2 knights and 2 padawans AND swiftly killed like 4 ARC troopers. Truly a badass.
Still my favorite iteration of General Grievous.
Z
It took a whole ass gunship for him to consider retreat
2003 general grievous: That asian guy that’s dominating the other team without saying a word in chat
2008 General Grievous: The trash talking 7 years old who just installed the game and mic spammed everytime he died
Yes
Best analogy I’ve heard lol
The accuracy is scary
So true lmao
Ok but why are the Asian guys always so good
So good. No time have we ever seen a villain punish a Jedi so badly, let alone 5 at once.
And shakti using the force to block his blade, but the force of his stroke was so powerful it knocked her backwards into rubble. She got hit with that “impossible he withstood my almighty push!?”
Sha'a Gi underestimated Grievous, it's why he only used 0.2% of his real strength.
But this time, he wasn't very lucky.
I think the scariest thing about General Grievous here is that he's just toying with them. He's only using two arms and two lightsabers in this fight. If he used all 4 arms, he would've wiped them all out
Grievous didn't have 4 arms yet in this battle
@@fall_comic6985 He did.
@@ForsakenDreamer7 I'm talking about the out of universe explanation.
In canon he did but because the character wasn't fleshed out enough he didn't have four arms
@@fall_comic6985 He still wouldn't be using them here, even concerning the meta. There is content created with 4 arms in mind about his earliest battles, and he still wasn't using them.
Fr?
Damn aight can you tell the when he first used 4 arms?
What I love, the creator von samurai jack was able to put his style in star wars, and while being sometimes diffferent, it is still pretty lore canon
i understand how mace windu crushed his lungs in causing him to cough a lot and move slower but that doesn't excuse his cowardly behavior in the clone wars. all in all I wish this was the grevious we got in later media
"SHOOT HIM DOWN!! SHOOT HIM DOWN!!"
Man for the one to say steady and stay calm to end up like this, he actually looked desperate and a little traumatised
Everyone is gangsta till Grievous comes in.
Aris Aris well he did just witness Grievous take down all his allies with such ease.
Pretty sure even a Jedi would be unsettled by such quick and ruthless massacre.
@@Laserbeak316 plus everyone has always wanted to say that.
I mean, he was right. He recognized that Grevious was a huge threat and this might be their only shot at him by himeself. if they actually were able to kill Grevious here it would have probably shortened the war by years
@@Criminalupper2200 Only lasted two years tho, more or less.
Can we just talk about how OP this guy is? Come on. He killed all the padawans, took out several clone troopers and almost killed the rest. He would have if the gunship didn’t come in. And what damage did he take? Just a ripped cape. This is the General Grievous I know. Also can we take a moment to listen to the music that’s playing through this? It’s horrifying.
He looked like he was gonna launch up and slice the gunship too, his footing looked like he was gonna rush at it not run.
The crazy thing? He's isn't just simply OP. He's a smart fighter. Agility and reflexes aside, that is the genius behind Grievous' unorthodox fighting style. He's intimidating the Jedi by keeping on them and storming them with unrelenting force to make them break their guard.
Moreso, he adds to it with his entrance, scaring the Jedi by abruptly ambushing them and stomping Sha'a Gi into the dirt. His unpredictability makes him scary.
Dooku taught him this particular style to throw the Jedi off their game, demoralize them, and take advantage of their wavering state to cut them down.
If you can see he does unusual moves during the fight so as to not look predictable to the Jedi managing to confuse them and catch them off guard
Also known to the Jedi as " _Why do I hear boss music?_ "
Also consider the fact that he held lightsabers with his feet (didn’t once have to resort to the four arms) and he CAUGHT A LIGHTSABER IN MID-AIR
I need a survival horror game with this Grievous 🙏
2:46 Can you imagine if THAT was his introduction in Episode 3... (*shiver*, *shiver*)
I love how Grievous is basically just posing in the end, standing in 1 foot and holding a 3rd lightsaber with his other foot, while we all know he has 2 extra arms hidden.
Gotta flex on the jedi master.
Why did he hold it in his foot ? To make it more interesting?
@@Narge. As the man himself says: "For practice". That's what dabbing on council members is for him. Just a training session.
@@ForsakenDreamer7 Oh I see and they're considered to be some of the best jedi. I love how after the jedi were rescued by the clones in the gunships Ki Adi was screaming in terror to the gunners to shoot Grievous down while he was running on the ceiling
@@Narge. Oh, yes. Shaak Ti especially. Quite tough, that one. But as Qui Gon says: "There's always a bigger fish".
This is like samurai Jack's animation and grievous reminds me af Aku the way he looks and stands cool asf
This was peak hype back in my day. All of my friends and I sat and watched this on a widescreen tube tv in my mom's basement wondering what would happen afterwards. I didn't get to see it until we got our cable box back. This was beyond intense.
Edit: Sha'a Gi actually has a good explanation for why he panicked. Good on Wookieepedia.
General Grievous making his entrance by killing the Star Wars universe's version of Shaggy Rogers? Awesome *and* terrifying at the same time.
Maximus4587 Shaggy's last name was Roger's? who would of known
And his first name is Norville.
He is name is Shaa'Gi.
irkenus it actually is
3:44 That Jedi’s name is K’Kruhk. And believe it or not, he actually survived getting cut down by Grievous.
His species can apparently enter a comatose state in order to heal themselves. This state also slows down their vitals, and makes them appear to be dead (hence why he was not recovered along with the other surviving Jedi, as they assumed he was dead).
K’Kruhk came back later on in the Clone Wars and was even strong enough to survive Order 66. Hell, he was able to survive both the Galactic Civil War and the Yuuzhan Vong Invasion.
Laserbeak316 he also became a Grand Master in Luke Skywalkers Jedi Court
I had no idea about this. Thanks for the information!!!
you know maybe no one died there. the one guy with the bandages is probably alright as other people survived getting slammed against walls in this fight. also shaggy might have just used ultra instinct to dodge Grevious
@@liamdalemon1525 perhaps, but that dude with the bandages is definitely dead. You could hear his neck snap when Grievous face-planted him into the ground with his foot.
Legends. In Canon he dies here
4:08 that kick is awesome
3:51 is EASILY my favourite scene here, her expression is not one of anger nor sadness, but pure shock and confusion, seeing death right in front of her eyes and not breaking down, continuing to fight holding that expression and potentially beginning to have thoughts of "theres one less of us now, i could be next" brilliantly done in building tension and dread
Everything about him is terrifying in this scene, he’s easily 9 feet tall plus the style he was built with is angular and inspires the look of wickedly curved Africa tribal blades or the scimitar. Plus the fact that he can easily wield 4 blades is especially horrifying.
actually 5
@@Memelord1117 It's 6 in total with repulsors.
His toes are his weapon
Bro he s 16 feet tall here 💀
Still shorter than Anakin expected
"You must break them before you engage them."
5:34 My dude looks like a raccoon you just caught in your trash can
Its sad. Grievous could've easily become the darth vader of the prequel trilogy instead.... you know.
I know, right? they had the best fucking design ever and This is what I always envisioned whenever I saw this almost insect like cyborg creature, with lots of arms to wield lightsabers, a relentless assassin. It's like they had all the best design ideas and forgot all the ideas with this guy..
Well, leave it to Genndy Tartakovsky to show you what makes action so sweet and a character genuinely threatening.
Who's that? The new producer?
Actually, Grievous IS a character that foreshadows the rise of Darth Vader.
Oof the clone wars grievous is very cowardly
Actually, if you look at his legends history, he WAS Anakin Skywalker. The guy lost nearly everything. The love of his life, his will to go on out side of kill every Huk in sight. Got blown up and put into a cybernetic body, used by his Sith master to hunt down and kill Jedi, all in that order. Grievous was pretty much the Prequel's Vader. And when I say that, I mean, I'm sticking to his Legend's lore. It might not be canon, but then again, after the shit that Disney pulled, it nearly destroyed my love for the Star Wars Universe as a whole. So, in conclusion; Fuck Disney. And fuck the people who made him a coward in particular. 😅
Grievous casually no diffing Aayla Secura, Ki Adi Mundi and Shaak Ti
What I love about his first encounter with the clones is that he only runs when he knows he's outmatched.
Gendy Tartacovsky’s 2003 Clone Wars had the most accurate portrayal of Grievous. A ruthless, efficient Jedi killer who used fear tactics and aggressive attacks to overwhelm Jedi. This show is what made me fall in love with General Grievous as a character. He just doesn’t live up to his reputation in any of the other films. Wish we saw more of him in the 2003s clone wars show.
I genuinely wondered how 2008 grievous even got the job done, man out here losing to anyone slightly above Padawan level. Then losing to crackhead pirates, snail-amphibian people, and a rather unprepared Ahsoka. There's also that one exploding ship part where plot armor saved his metal ass because for some dumb reason, obi wan decided to warn grievous the ship was going to explode instead of being smart and letting him die. Too much plot armor, not enough evidence to support the whole jedi-killer part of his story.
Press Factory Reset on your phone, I dare you. He lost to Gungans!!!! Like how??? He’s killed so many Jedi but can’t kill like at most 20 gungans
He seemed to genocide the night sisters pretty efficiently in the 2008 clone wars
@@kevinvassago lost to ventress, which is fine I guess since ventress is a pretty dangerous threat, but then needed an entire army to deal with brainless zombies and a few archers? I guess it's somewhat impressive but it's not exactly like a thing you hear and makes you say "Woah, that's pretty neat!"
@@accountforasupertubularguy7166 yeah, true. I'm watching the clone wars right now and I just saw that episode last night. I was honestly kind of happy Ventress kinda won that fight tho, because after all the bs she's been through, she needed a win. Idk, 2003 clone wars will always be canon to me as well, so maybe that's why Grevious doesn't bother me as much as others, it is what it is I guess.

“We must try, padawan!” 2:12 This was Ki-Adi-Mundi’s and his Jedi groups first mistake. Do or do not, there is no try.
Man, the first kid I feel bad for: but he should have listened to his master. While Jedi are not meant to feel love, it is clear that most masters want to keep their padawans alive, and become slightly distressed when they’re about to make a fatal (literally) mistake
