I love how he took like 30mins to kill him, Wiley Vader just picked him up and tossed him in like 3 secs in comparison
😂😂😂
See he imagined Palpatine as sand
Mark M8 Vader once said that Sidious is not as forgiving as he is
Vader was more pragmatic 😊
@Juuso Kajan How often have you seen villains defeated by rambling on and on while the good guys find a way to beat them during their monologue? Vader just went in and got the job done with passion and prejudice, but didn't hang around to monologue. I think he was part Navy SEAL. Get the job done and get out and on to the next mission.
"Have you ever heard of the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise? It's an ancient Sith legend"
*Happened 13 years prior
bumblebeeeoptimus Well, to be fair, it happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away...

bumblebeeeoptimus yes
so what's the point of your comment?

I have the CC on... It's hilarious.
Palpatine was a politician after all. They love talking
and as Obi-Wan says they are not to be trusted
Oh thats not new info, he was a masterful politician and public speaker. His ability to manipulate others is unrivaled in cannon. However.....thats not what he was doing here. There was no audience to manipulate in this scene. This was Sidious giving intonhis dark, twisted blood lust and showing just how psychotic and detached he really was. Plaguies trusted Sidious and was nothing but loyal to him.....a mistake Sidious was eager to take advantage of. One of the darkest scenes in all of star wars in my opinion
True story
lol
This took way too long
Plagueis: Can you shut up and just kill me ?
Damian 😂😂😂
"Oh you sly dog! You almost caught me monologing!"
He is a typical villain explaining his crime 😂😂😂
Holy crap did Sidious love to hear himself talk...
“Your overconfidence is your weakness”
Blethering on about one's domination of another is a statement of both *personal insecurity* and one's overcompensation by way of *narcissism.* Witness T'Rump. But in a fantasy/drama system such as Star Warz, blethering on is a tool of exposition. It is constantly and consistently used in horror and bad guy vs good guy stories for the purpose of informing and challenging the thoughts of the audience while building their tension, suspense and emotion regarding the performance.
@@zunipus Palps fits the bill perfectly for the Dark Triad. EXTREMELY Manipulating (legit waged war with himself) charismatic and cunning, no empathy or remorse, obsessions over
grandiosity, hatred of everything but himself, takes pleasure in others pain, and unable to feel love. The epitome of a garbage human being

Soooooo, Palpatine/Sidious TALKED Darth Plagueis to death. Ok, then!
thechuckster22
Great Sith trick....talking people to death....
he almost talked me to death too. How BORING.
Yup it got sorta boring after the first 2 hours...
Plagueis got him monologuing!
So he has the standard Supervillain weakness. Luke was wrong. His overconfidence was not his undoing, his droning on and on and on was.
He did not Kill Luke right away less due to wanting to torture him, he was mentally working on a 3 hour speech. This is how Luke was to die.
...so powerful, and so wise, he could use the force to influence the midiclorianes, to create...

Well shit....
*Anikan breathing heavily*

horsemumbler1 Anakin then proceeded to kill the chancellor
Me in a bar: *sees an attractive woman*
Me to the woman: Have you heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?
uwu
Ironic
Tell her about the rule of two. And how to suck midi-chlorians from her Master.
It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you.
plot twist : she says *yes*
"Teacher? Yes, and for that I will be eternally greatful; but master? Never."
that line is so raw
palpatine was quite the monologuer
Well, evil people don't have much friends, so he speaks to himself :p

Haha, true!
Templar 2001 "yup" - Lana Kane
It took a long time for one such as Sidious to die in such a way. Might as well tell him off while he dies.
What if, right in the middle of killing him, Sidious says "Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?" ;-)
Plagueis: "No...?"
Sidious: "I'm not surprised... Its not a story that's complete yet..."
WashuHakubi4 that would be me saying that
WashuHakubi4 That would have been gay and irrelevant
wouldn't be surprised as he was probably planning to kill plagueis when he was still in the womb..as sidious liked the long game..

A mini-movie about Darth Plagueis and Palpatine sounds really cool
MrFedoraFilm Episode 0: Palpatine's fall to the dark side.
Wouldn't be much of a fall when he's always been in the dark side. It would be more like Palpatine basking in the dark side and digging even deeper :D
MrFedoraFilm That's a spinoff movie I'd like to see made, much like the Obi Wan backstory movie and Han Solo origin movie coming out in the future. It would be cool to take a glimpse into the young, sociopathic Sheev Palpatine from his childhood on Naboo, to his training under Darth Plagueis, and the eventual murder of his master. I don't think they'd be able to get Ian McDiarmid to reprise his role but I'm sure another actor could certainly fill in the role of a young Palpatine.
Sheev - A Star Wars Story
Why would you want this? We need more Solo and Rose Tico movies
I could never imagine Palpatine drinking wine and just chilling out in his hotel room... Just couldn't imagine it..
He banged hookers my dude 😎
probably wears slippers and plays sudoku
its just so weird to even imagine him just relaxing im his room... can't picture it
He sat in his room drunk crying wishing he was better looking. Even the hookers wouldnt go near him. No im wrong about that im sure he had tons of girlfriends and concubines to play with.
@@jeffreyval9665 Force persuasion? Besides, some women find power more attractive than good looks.
So, Plagueis died from a full half-hour monologue.
Sound Author In Star Wars universe, sadness, tiredness and boredom are lethal
Pretty much
Death by PowerPoint would have worked too.
“Just give me a lightsaber, I’ll kill myself!!” -Plagueis (Probably)
I couldnt listen to this guy through the whole thing. Corny. Just explain.
0:15 5 minutes into Tragedy of Darth Plagieus and chill and he gives you this look
Josh Leonard lol
Josh Leonard Wow, nice dead meme
You know nothing, Jon Snow.
I think Plagueis died of bordem.
Loool
Plagueis died of sadness because his apprentice didn't like him anymore
I agree with this theory
Devendra Sharma he got so bored by Sidious’s monologue that he used the force to stop his hearts.
I think that you would have a lot more upvotes if you had correctly spelled boredom.

@@DMK5506 true
they really had a long chat on Plagueis's dying breath... jeez, he wasn't asleep, he woke him up with force lightning and spoke shit for a few minutes, and Plagueis was too wasted to defend himself, lol
blah blah What if he had death sticks
its funny how many will swear he's still alive.
:)
Sidious gave an EXTREMELY long monologue before offing his old master. lol
ahwayzcool Bad guys do love to monologue.
I would've died before he finished lol
The Muay Thai Paramedic that’s what she said?
Instead of his speech to a dying Luke which was only like 6 lines

Not from a Theater Major...
This is definitely the most Palpatine has talked lol
My friend then you may have never heard the speech palps gave when he converted republic to empire
Snoke to Kylo: " Did you ever hear the tragedy of Palpatine the traitor!"
Enter episode 9
Nobody ever talks about how powerful pluegis must've been for palpatine to kill him in the way he did. We all know how powerful palpatine was and for him to be scared. It just says a lot about pluegis
Plagueis*
Plagueis had spent about 20 years in self-imposed exile spending 24 hours a day 7 days a week studying the Force. He had long surpassed his body's need for sleep or rest and devoted his every moment to furthering his study of midichlorians in an attempt to achieve immortality. In doing so he literally unlocked ancient Sith secrets for unnatural healing and life extension that had been lost in Darth Gravid's purge of Sith knowledge 500 years prior.
Plagueis was mere years away from becoming as powerful as the Sith Lords of old, such as Naga Sadow, Ludo Kressh, and Marka Ragnos.
Joel Gawne I really want to see plaques come back.just to see how powerful he would be now.
And then imagine how strong tenebrous was to have to be killed by plagueis the way he was
Palpatine was not in his prime at the time if he was in his prime he was the most powerful Sith Lord of all time
The Rule of Two is always cyclical. The Sith Master will gain in strength, power, and cleverness until he believes himself invincible. That's the weakness of the Sith, they are consumed by their ego, their arrogance, their belief that they are superior to all things. And in their hubris, they will become blind to all threats, deluding themselves into believing that they cannot be destroyed for they are too powerful. It is at that moment that the apprentice strikes, not just because that's the best oppurtunity, but because that's when they ought to, as that's when the master is now useless to the Sith, as their confidence in their power makes them the weakest they will ever be. This is what Bane intended. He knew that the Sith were doomed to arrogance and hubris, so he created a system that their lust for power will be used to correct their weaknesses.
Plagueis deluded himself into thinking he was immortal, which allowed Sidious to kill him. Sidious deluded himself into thinking that Vader's spirit was broken and he had nothing to live for but to serve him, which prevented him from forseeing Vader's love for Luke to drive him to kill him to protect his son. Snoke deluded himself into thinking he had Kylo under his thumb like an abusive father has control of his children, so he didn't expect Kylo to suddenly grow a spine and cut him in half. And so the apprentice kills the stagnant master and grows ever stronger.
That was a really great example
Well Said
That's correct to a point. Bane wanted the apprentice to surpass the master in strength, knowledge and Dark side ability to be able to destroy the master in fair combat, ensuring the next apprentice will have an even stronger master thus making the Sith stronger. Not by deception but a true death match, like how Darth Zanna killed Bane when he was still strong with the force. He was the true and only Sith'Ari.
I'm down with the idea but then where does that leave us with who is the master and apprentice... for both sides really..?
But what happens when the master is a bad teacher or when he is way too strong for his apprentice and too old to teach a new one? I don't think that any sith but Kreia knew about the "cycle" the force is forcing upon the Jedi and Sith (the whole "the force is everywhere and there'll always be a new sith lord", ignoring midichlorian blood biology stuff).
Anakin be like: “this dude feels pretty awesome ngl”

I've always thought he was simply stabed by Palpatine with his lighsaber while sleeping..
bumblebeeeoptimus that's a cowards way, u fight ur enemy face to face and that's not his style
Damon Richter lmfao right. getting him so drunk he can't even move or see straight, so can't defend himself, and that's supposed to be honorable face to face and not a coward's way?
Sidious is a coward.
instead. palpatine and dooku are sith rivals, and plagueis appears to choose dooku as his apprentice. palpatine turns to the grey jedi where he becomes a hero and senator. only later is it revealed to him that he has been plagueis' apprentice all along: by making an enemy of his apprentice, plagueis has taught him how to crave the absolute power necessary to defeat his master. palpatine is seduced back to the sith when he understands plagueis plan is for him to be emperor, having already established palpatine in the republic as a ploy. palpatine "turns" to the dark side, which creates a disturbance in the force, which only gets balanced after anakin "turns" back. upon learning of leia, sidious intended on killing both darth vader and luke skywalker on the death star.
Dragma Plays maybe, but Sidious is indeed fearless.
he got him drunk waited till he passed out and killed him like a wuss
kenny neally Like a sith*
lol then plaguies is wuss.. look at how he "killed" his master tenebrou... xb
sidious just has a smart mind.. he doesnt care for phsyical confrontation... he prefers to use his brain.. thats why his lighter saber skill are ranked among the best with yoda yet sidious if he can help it.. will never lift his lightsaber to fight if he can just use his brain...
plagious on the other hand.. out right due to fear .. did what he did to tenebrous... cause a "accidently" cave in.. then pretended to help tenebrou... to further play off that he didnt "cause" that cave in.. just in case tenebrous got up... plagues could have been like "oh shit... that was close.. im glad u lived" 😂
this is how the sith pick up girls
It’s the sith way
Plagues didnt even kill his master a roof collapsed on him and he just didnt save him ok purpose
I was waiting for Palpatine to realize he had been dead the whole time.
Anyone remembers? We all theorized that snoke is gonna be plagueuis? Ahh.. good times.

Love your videos man, I wait for them each day when I am at work!
Also I am super early to this video!
Can I get a like
Maybe your should actually study directing and maybe talk to Disney to create a spinoff movie. Hell, its worth a shot
what happened to Nova is the real question
Ascend Dazs what if Luke joined palpatine
12:28 I believe Anakin truly did look up to and respect Palpatine before he revealed himself, but desperate to save Padme he agreed to do whatever he [Palpatine] asked. Then he finds himself manipulated into mass murder, trapped in a mechanical suit, unable to turn back to the Jedi, all alone in the Galaxy except his for new master and had literally no other options than to continue down the path of darkness.
No other options before his and Padmé's son Luke Skywalker and daughter Princess Leia Organa Skywalker came of age and battled against Darth Sidious's (yes, Darth Sidious was pulling the levers from behind the curtains from the very start) many hordes.
Still, how could Anakin Slywalker/Darth Vader possibly have not known that Padmé herself might be Force-sensitive and not been aware of it?
Bro do you know the song or theme that plays at this part
I have an idea.
‘What if Darth Plaguies survived and killed Palpatine?’
I don´t think he would have killed him rightaway, Sidious was way too valuable to him and also it wasn´t really his style, just letting people die. He probably would have tryed to figure out some way to get ridd of Palpatines mind and powers so he would be left with a nice chancellor marionette to use.
Well one, Plaguies is drunk and would wake up the next day. Then he would say what happened!? Then go up to Sidious's body and bring him back to life after fixing his breathing machine. Of course being a sith, he would lock Sidious up and probably torture him until he finally got his answers. Then you can add Darthplagueis13 idea on what happened next.
Then star wars would've ended there
No count
No Darth
No snoke it would be boring
Count would exist, just as a jedi
Palpatine going into classic villain monologue on a dying person.
At least he made sure that Plagueis was already dying instead of setting up a death trap like other supervillains.
To be honest, this long-ass monologue is too cheesy for my taste. Palpatine was chatty but never like this

All the Sith and Jedi are chatty like that.
It's ironic, because delaying victory is exactly what he chastised Maul for doing.
Mace Windu won the fight.
"His equally powerful apprentice"
This shows without a shadow of a doubt that Plagueis and Sidious were indeed equal. Then there is another paragraph in the book which indicates that Plagueis, like Sidious, could be a match for the best of the Jedi i.e. Yoda and Windu. Damn. No wonder Sidious chose to kill him in his sleep. Didn't want to mess with him.
Raghuvar Vasudev
He got him DRUNK!!!
He had to get him intoxicated in order to beat him!
Lmfao!
Which is smart. Why start a fight with an equal when you can get the advantage? After all, he abused the trust of Plagueis, a very Sith thing to do. Plagueis forgot the tenets of the Sith and Palpatine didn't, making him victorious.
Because he didn't sleep a lot for reasons.Sidious got him drunk so he would finally go to sleep
zaco21 Yep! With the amount of heroin he shot up there was no way he could have picked up the shotgun. Not to mention his fingerprints weren’t on the gun, the GSR didn’t match up & the handwriting on the “suicide night”. Courtney’s lawyer found a notebook in her bag proving that she had been practicing his handwriting. Fucking lying bitch murdered one of the greatest musicians of all-time.
Raghuvar Vasudev
Actually Plagueis was more powerful than Sidious as Sidious was so much weaker that he needed to intoxicate him to defeat him
Great video and point of view, but I have to disagree on why Darth Plagueis didn’t fight back when Darth Sidious attacked him. Plagueis may have been powerful enough to kill Sidious, and he may have been powerful enough to use the force to save his own body after his breathing apparatus was destroyed by the force lightning from Sidious, but I do not think he would have been powerful enough to do both at the same time. It would have taken a lot of focus for Plagueis to save himself and get to another breathing apparatus while avoiding detection of dark side power use from the Jedi, and maintaining that level of focus while fighting for your life against someone as powerful as Sidious would have been impossible. Plagueis was very intelligent and wise, and I think he knew that if he had somehow won the battle with Sidious, the Sith would have lost the entire war that had been brewing against the Jedi. While it may not be the Sith way to lay down and die without a fight, I think Plagueis KNEW he was beaten and chose not to fight back and not to hurt Sidious to keep the Sith dream of overthrowing the Jedi alive. If Sidious had force related injuries or light saber wounds and the Jedi found out, it would have been the end of Sidious and the Sith because Sidious didn’t have enough control over the republic to take on the Jedi alone without the clone army and all the power he gained bit by bit. I cannot think of any other logical reason a Sith Master would not even raise a finger to defend himself besides knowing that to do so would most likely utterly destroy the Sith and the transfer of knowledge from master to apprentice forever. That is how intelligent and wise Plagueis was. And also one of the few 100% selfless acts of any Sith Master in history I suppose. I have to hand it to James Luceno - it was a masterfully written book, but I think Plagueis chose not to fight back for the greater good of the Sith.
Palpatine is very talkative... normally it turns out bad to tell your full plan...
PowerControl this is Palpatine though, the sixth lord who fooled the entire order for over a decade. He didn’t get to where he was by making sloppy mistakes. I don’t think he’d have told him if he didn’t think that he would kill him.
That doesn’t count when you’re telling it to someone who’s suffocating under your watch
So sidious just monologues as he kills plagueis?
He monologues everytime he sees someone die
The man is a Shakespearean ACTOR!
Remember when he was killing Luke by slowly striking him with force lightning and trash talking him

With some people complaining about how you presented this story in terms of voiceacting and dramatization, I would like to say that I really enjoyed it and think that you did a great job.
Dramatization is and always was a big part of the SW universe, wether you like it or not. So the way you made this video definitely fits well into it.
You can't ever make anything so perfect that everyone is happy with it; some people will always keep nagging. I suppose the ratio of likes to dislikes says all there's to be said.

I love how Sidious is the greatest manipulator in the SW galaxy. Even his own Master he subtly manipulated throughout their partnership for his own gain before murdering him.

@@YoungDen treachery is the way of the Sith after all
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
@Sweet Johnson not from a jedi
No
Its quite interesting this scene if you watch it again palpatine looks like he kinda regrets killing plagueis
@@peacefulknight0 He probably does but it's the only way he can advance.
@@peacefulknight0 I do not see that. He seems positively to gloat.
So this dude can fight off death, but not a wine buzz?
I think it was implied he spiked it. Also Palps refused to drink from it. Just sat and waited.
Wine buzz and not sleeping for 15 years prior to dozing off… basically at his most vulnerable state on top of past injuries
He wasn’t just buzzed, he was completely plastered. They opened and drank four bottles of wine before his body eventually succumbed to the intoxicating effects of the alcohol. Combine that with not having truly slept in over 20 years and his body was pretty much entering a shut down state.
@@gerrymcwilliamClassic murder tactic.
Idk why but the quick cut to Palpatine falling to his death had me in stitches
When I get gunned down by a terrorist.
My friend: 'your dying, what are you going to do!'
Me: 'right, I don't have long, so basically, there was this guy called Darth Plageuis...
Tom, is your head really made from wood?
I believe plaguesis purposely intoxicated himself. He was much to wise to not notice his students intentions but since he knew the pain he would feel of dying that night he become intoxicated. He in a way was proud of his apprentice. The same way he knew Vader was going to kill him as he shocked Luke. He knew the balance of the force was inevitable especially if he had obtained archives
im not sure sidious had actually planned to kill him that night or if plagueis falling asleep after getting intoxicated after having not slept in years just presented a surprise opportunity. Technically him killing his master like that was against the rule of 2 and one of the things Bane was looking to avoid in creating the rule to ensure that only the strongest most capable sith inherited the full power of the dark side, though plagueis him self was also provided a surprise opportunity when he dealt the death blow to tennebruas. As his master was trying to hold up the ceiling of a cave to help them escape though plagueis also felt the force telling him to end his master, and his master was happy he did so because he had been an apprentice so long without challenging his master that he was having doubts that his apprentice was strong or bold enough to inherit the title and power of Dark Lord of the Sith. So I'm trying to remember if sidious had the same calling from the force to kill his master when he saw him asleep
His intoxication wasn’t intentional. Like the novel says, Plagueis thought he was exempt from the Rule of Two because he thought he was the final culmination of it. So he dropped his guard to celebrate what he saw as one of the final steps of thousands of years of planning and work. Ego is the downfall of EVERY Sith that lets his guard drop around his apprentice, and Plagueis learned that the hard way.
You do a good Sidious impression.
It is crazy that the Jedi did not detect this massive disturbance of the Force.
They did sense something was wrong phantom menace. They had no clue what however, they assumed it had to do with the trade federation, which wasnt far off but still blind.
They were too blinded by self-righteousness.
My biggest problem with the whole he got him drunk thing is that Palagius never drank and then miraculously just decided to start that day. Palagius was also known to be so powerful in the force that he could even use his Force Illusions to convince Palpatine of things that weren't real. So my theory is Palagius convinced Palpatine that he killed him to truly end the rule of two. What could possibly be a better way to not have your Apprentice kill you than to make him believe that you are dead. I'm curious as to your thoughts on this theory?
Brian Rogers
THANK YOU!!!!
I've always said that!
He could create illusions so powerful that he could send them into both the past and future. He's used force Illusions on Palpatine many times before with him unaware.
Thank you for making this comment.
I'm glad to hear that someone appreciates my idea and agrees. I feel it makes the most sense.
Brian Rogers So what you're saying is Plagueis just gave up power and went into hiding. He decided to retire, leave Sidious in charge, and basically stop being a sith lord. I don't see how that could have happened, unless MAYBE Plagueis turned towards the light. Most likely, he was just old and getting senile and became too trusting and complacent. Even the Force can't save somebody from Alzheimers.
If I remember correctly, he never slept either. It's not uncommon for people that rarely drink to have a few to celebrate a big event, like when your conniving gets your man into the chancellorship.
Louis Laszlo if you think about it maybe plagueis was just waiting patiently and still growing stronger just waiting for sidious to die, maybe plagueis is snoke ??
I'd laugh if a Jedi was standing outside the door the whole time. The grand plan is officially BUSTED!
Noice bricks mission failed we'll get em next time
michael warner 😂😂😂😂😂
and it was totally Yoda: "Busted, your plan is, Sidious.... Or Silly-Gus, should I say?"
Say my name, did you?
Longest death ever haha. If I was Plagueis I would have been like "Holy shit just kill me, I don't want to listen to a novel first" lol
Earlier in the book, when an atempt is made on Plagueis' life, Sidious responded in a violent and emotional way to the people who set the assassination in motion. It made me feel that Palpatine really did care for Plagueis. I'm wondering if you agree. Or do you feel it was just anger for someone attacking the Sith?
I viewed it more of a fury that his knowledge and power resource, through which he saw his pathway to greatness, was being threatened. So his response was violent and emotional as you say, but in a way that they were interfering with his own Grand Plan, and that the assassination would have come too soon for him to be able to achieve what he wanted and set his pace in the Galaxy.
He cared for plagueis, but plagueis was no longer needed to carry out the grand plan. Sideous had his own designs on how to enact it. It was necessary, same as every other apprentice that killed their master.
I think Palpatine's response to the first assassination attempt was more anger that a useful tool and resource in his (or the Sith's) Grand Plan was being threatened before he was done with using it. As we see here, he would have cast Plagueis aside anyway once he had served his purpose, for, as Sidious himself put it, "No true Sith can ever really care about one another."
He was angry he wouldn't be able to monologue like this. He had spent decades preparing that speech.
I don’t think he cared for Plagueis per say but there are many examples in the comics in which he shows respect for Plagueis posthumously, to a Level he never did with any Jedi or even his apprentices :
As emperor he would often think about how plagueis would have dealt with the trivial day to day running’s of the empire and its politics.
He also surmised that Plagueis kept some of his knowledge about immortality a secret from Palpatine. Sidious inherited all of Plagueis’s work and knowledge yet couldn’t achieve full immortality and his transference left him weak and in pain… he figured it was karma for murdering his master and that plagueis was probably getting the last laugh
He always refers to Plagueis as wise and powerful when recounting him. Even when he highlights his flaws he always seemed to show positives
The night/morning he murdered plagueis; Palpatine had a full blown anxiety attack at the thought that Plagueis would return and extract revenge.
He was the apprentice for many decades for a reason. Plagueis was evidently a great teacher and very powerful figure who Palpatine saw as a mentor and useful (he was the one that got Palpatine connected politically and Taught him the dark side after all).
what if jango fett survived or what if jango fett killed mace windu
Your Average Human thanks
Kayleigh Inglis I second that
rhw Anyone can land a lucky shot. And i'd like to see what a lightsaber would do against a flamethrower. Jango Fett has killed tons of Jedi before Windu, he's not some random guy.
rhw he could tie him up and and shoot him just like boba done to luke
Jango Fett is hardly a "random-ass dude". If you watch the battle on Geonosis in Attack of the Clones, you'll see he does actually kill a Jedi. He's the most badass bounty hunter in the Star Wars universe at that point in the chronology.
Palpatine heard a voice that said, “Dew it!”
Lord Vader, can you hear me?
Darth Rainnzy NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Yes, master

“Teacher, yes and for that I will be eternally grateful. But Master - never.”
Very well done! Loved to see a re-enactment of one of my favorite scenes from that book!
That "mini star wars film" now has 9,5 million views. So much happened in a year for this channel. Keep up the great work man!!
"By the Force!! Even when he's killing me, this guy won't SHUT UP!!!"
-Darth Plagueis. Probably.
Palpatine: This lightsaber smells like strawberries!
Jeez... He sure did talk a lot when he killed him.

"You sly dog, you got me monologuing!"
To be honest, I do think Palpy might actually have been able to kill Plagueis in a fight. It is evident his main motivation for getting Plagueis drunk was so he could have the authorities think he died from a malfunction in his respirator and not have a murder scene
Make it look like natural causes even though it is not.
Sick and awesome.
Ive never understood logic behind Sith. You are Master. You deem learner worthy by dedication to gain unlimited power, same thing as you are, thus putting time constraints on your life. On one side, you are teaching him, on other you do not teach him because he could use it against you... Everything contradicts everything.
A master without an apprentice is a master of nothing. -Sidious
Isn't the dark side lovely
Breaking news: "Bad guy's evil plan makes no sense."
Darth Banes intent with the Rule Of Two was to make The Sith Stronger, not the individual, Sci Fi equivalent of Darwanism taken to an extreme.
The idea is that each generation of Sith become wiser, stronger and more equipped with the knowledge/resources of the past Sith. So in essence it’s almost like selective breeding to produce the strongest Sith.
The rule of two was also influenced by the Sith prophecy of “the dyad” with ancient Sith stories detailing the dyad as an almost symbiotic relationship between two force beings that was a gateway to potent force powers/connection between the two that could transcend space time.
Plagueis, the genius he was came very close to creating a man-made dyad with Sidious but ultimately failed which Sidious saw as his master not being worthy… until Sidious tried the same thing with Vader and flopped even harder 🤣
I've been waiting long for this... MY LITTLE GREEN... FRIEND.
What if Jar Jar Binks accidentaly killed Palpatine in his sleep...
Could happen, maybe. "Ooh Ani, looky whats me did by aksy-dentses, oooooooh boy, I stabby stabbyed his face-part overs and overs by totals aksy-dentses, oopsy doopsies"
I think the better narative would be if Jar Jar came CLOSE to face-stabbing Palpatine, but instead tripped over a side-table or something and woke Palpatine, which resulted in Jar Jar copping a max-powered bolt of force lightning causing him to explode into a million gungan pieces all over the room!
The great sith overlord does nothing by accident.
"Accidentally"
guess whos the new emperor
The tragedy of darth plagues the wise is my go to pick up line
That's funny,mine too 😂😂😂
*wet*
Taylor FuckYou explains why you can’t spell you’re properly
“Have you ever heard of the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise?”
Plagueis wakes up
Plagueis - “what?”
Sideous - “Oh Shit I’m too early”
Sideous Electrocutes Plagueis.
the tragedy was that he woke up and had to hear Sidious yapping his trap for an hour before dying
Is Count Dooku actually older than Darth Sidious?
Yeah by about 20 years
ΛNYHΛX I have no idea lol
Star Wars Lore Keeper no way
He is older.
According to the now non-canon novel Darth Plagueis anyways
What if Darth Maul killed Obi Wan and Qui Gon Jinn survived?
Katherine Page oh
Are you the real Trevor Philips?
Jonathan Hennessy Trevor Philips is not a real person for starters. it's steven ogg who portrays the character. so your question is irrelevant since Trevor is not even real at all
Christopher Douglas you must be fun at parties
what an angry fellow you are
It's upsetting that this fantastic novel is not considered canon.
Gabe P
yeah
I blame all of the garbage in legend's
I am pissed about that, I mean, why don't they just make everything bby canon (won't effect the new story much at all)
captainbro999
because alot of it was still a mess.
for example do we really need Jango Fett to be a member of some warrior death cult despite the fact that he seem's smart enough to avoid such suicidal groups
Gabe P Disney does not command canon, it's true in my mind.
Darth Plagueis the Wise
Well then it's a shame that you are wrong.
Putting your fingers into your ears and going lalala won't change anything.
The darth plagueis novel is one of my favourite sw books of all time,it's simply brilliant
In the movie Palpatine says he murdered Plagueis while he was sleeping.
Not necessarily. He drugged Plagueis into falling asleep, and started the process of killing him.
Well, he kinda did though, except Plagueis woke up while the murder was occuring
XDDD
j.tv I guess Palpatine cared so little for Plagueis after the fact, that the order or manner he killed his master no longer matters.
Plagueis dozed off during Palpatine's long monologue.
Palpatine is really monologging severely. How wise could Plagueis really have been to not take advantage of this?
His ass was really drunk
He put something into his wine. Plagueis was rather wasted t that point and really, getting roasted with such a hangover really isn´t very inspiring...
Wise only means knowledgeable, doesn't mean you are smart/good at analyzing or conniving
Knowledge is not intelligence.
Well being drunk, suffocating, and electrocuted... did not really help.
dude this takes monologuing to a whole new damn level. like seriously how arrogant can you be
in the book they are going over his speech that he is about to give the senate. He goes over the speech with Plaguis, pretending that hes just trying to get it 100% correct, several times...while offering to fill plaguises cup of wine over and over. Getting him drunk and in a sleepy state. This final monologue is just the end of his speech once again.
“You sly dog! You’ve got me monologuing!”
shotgunslayer02 And what do you mean by arrogant
How does this even point to even suggesting he is arrogant? Fucking dumb ass. If you dont care about the shit hes talking about why dont you just leave
shotgunslayer02 this does not even point to arrogance . If you had a problem with this then you should not have said a damn thing at all period and leave
I find it funny that Sideous is considered the strongest sith lord to ever be, yet he had to use wine to overpower Plageus. He was only the smartest perhaps. And we all know that Yoda would have won the battle with Sideous if not for the force explosion that blew him to the bottom of the senate. Yoda clearly was more powerful, and so was Mace Windu. Stupid Anakin...
In that lies the brilliance of sidious. He was the most powerful because of his cunning and manipulative nature. Bane was certainly a stronger sith in terms of raw strength and perhaps force abilities and yoda is wise but none other played the game of chess as well as sidious had.
Power isnt just measured in strength. Hes easily the most powerful of the sith but i highly doubt he has the most raw strength
In eu he is the most powerful. In cannon he's not though. There are ancient sith much more powerful in cannon.
@@ThePerfectBalls In terms of force abilities, kaan, or bane were more destructive. Kaan wiped the floor of several planets just for fun. When was having a bad day built and set off a thoughtbomb. Sidius could just bairly make and control a force storm. Revan could be argued to have even more raw power because of being well versed on multiple aspects to the force and thus a vastly more complete force user than palps could even dream about.
How ironic Sidious dies by the hand of his own apprentice...
This is the nature of the sith. One to embody power and one to crave it. The sith become stronger when the apprentice becomes strong enough to defeat his master.
..... The whole entire point of the Rule of two is the apprentice kills the master
KB - Stacks, honestly I don’t remember why I found that ironic, because you’re right 😂 only thing I can think of to defend 8 month ago me was I was thinking the rule of two is supposed to be “over” with Sidious. He’s supposedly the one that rules forever as the ultimate sith no? I’m grasping at straws honestly
It’s called the rule of 2
The last three movies never happens and you can't change my mind
Everyone’s going on about how long-winded his monologue is but I loved everything about this scene
Based on how the story was portraying him by that point, and on what we know of him to come soon after, I think Palpatine may have already surpassed Plagueis in raw power and fighting prowess. Palpatine just didn't want to take any chances, nor exert himself more than necessary.
Fan theory, I think before he died he took some of that DNA from plagueis and created snoke as an backup plan.
Fan theory Snoke is just some rando alien homeless dude who walked in and started LARPing as a Sith
Plaegous knew how to manipulate the midichlorians to create life. He taught his apprentice, Sheev Palpatine éverything he knew. So Sheev 'Sidious' Palpatine knew this too!
Thats how Sidious created Snoke. A force-born prodigy.
I think Sidious' physical form did die on the Deathstar, at the end of ROTJ, when Vader tossed him down that ventshaft. If not the fall, then the explosion of the superweapon killed his physical form. Yet Sidious knew how to survive in the living Force, as Jedi's did! He mentored Snoke like that? Then when he had manipulated his puppet Snoke, enough he 'withdrew' to Exogol where he took controled of a cloned body of himself and preperations of his Planet-destroyer Fleet were well underway?
Its a 'Sith Legend', we should get told sometimes: How did 'Palpatine actually somehow survive'? How did he create Snoke?
And if he was destroyed by Rey, how come he's never coming back again? Simply because his cloning facility on Exogol got destroyed? Sidious seemed to have found a pathway to immortality, just like Qui-gon Jinn did, alongside Yoda, Obi-wan Kenobi, and Anakin, at the end of ROTJ...
@@thegreenreaper6660 No, Sidious never became a force ghost. Which is why he cloned himself.
Heh.
Heh.
Sidious fight me
Darth Vader Fuck you
Darth Sidious Fuck you too
Anakin old friend remember I was also turned.
Then betrayed(lets see the milkdrinkers who gets offended by me breaking lore)
He is the Senate
maistromann ha. Ha. Haa. Ur so funny man
maistromann Not yet
I am the senate!
Chancellor Palpatine you are under arrest, my lord.
MrAutobot390 it’s treason then
Wow I didn’t realize that Plagueis was still alive so close to the beginning of the Star Wars saga...I’d always had the impression that Palpatine killed his master years before The Phantom Menace
He wasn't. That is just an EU book. The EU stuff tells rather laughable stories most of the time. Never once did I consider the murder of Plagueis to be so recent, not until the silly EU said so. Palpatine looked like he was remembering back to a far more distant past than just 15 years or so. An ancient Sith Legend...not according to the EU!!!!
So my question is this, how would the Jedi have known about this story? Because senator Palpa teen tells Aniken it’s not a story the Jedi would’ve told you, implying that they knew and were withholding this information, yet the appearance of Darth Maul was the first sign of the Sith in hundreds of years.
I think the Jedi had no idea of Plagis, it was just a way to seduce Anakin more to the dark side and make it seem like the Jedi hide a lot from you
@@Darthdeedee91 also how he calls it ancient, even though it happened 13 years before rots
@@mirandalockey7334 it’s almost like sidious is manipulating anakin to the dark side
