The Real Reason Palpatine Sent Anakin to the Jedi Temple During Order 66

- In Star Wars revenge of the sith, once anakin cut off the hand of Mace Windu, and palpatine tested him out of the window, dubbing the chosen one as Darth Vader. He sent Anakin to the jedi temple, and then to Mustafar to wipe out the separatist leaders, ending the war.
Why didn’t palpatine just send anakin to Mustafar, while the clones took out the jedi at the temple? Risking Anakin against Jedi Masters all defending themselves at once might have cost Palpatine all he had worked so hard for with Anakin, losing him in a duel. Let’s look at the answer as to why Palpatine sent Anakin to the Jedi Temple first, from the Star Wars revenge of the sith junior novelization.
In the novelization, it writes ““Anakin Skywalker, you are one with the Order of the Sith Lords,” Palpatine replied. “Henceforth, you shall be known as…Darth Vader.” “Thank you, my Master.” Darth Sidious-Chancellor Palpatine-stood alone in his enormous office. He’d sent his new apprentice and a battalion of clone troops to the Jedi Temple. That would take care of the Jedi on Coruscant. He scowled slightly under his hood. He sensed that his apprentice was not yet as fully committed to the dark side as he should be. Well, destroying the Jedi
Wrede, Patricia C. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith: Junior Novelization (pp. 138-139). Disney Book Group. Kindle Edition. ”
It would seem that Sidious didn’t need Anakin at the temple at all. Rather, he just wanted him to prove himself, and thus cementing a theory I had on why Anakin had to kill the younglings. I don’t think he was happy doing it, I think he was just numb to doing whatever he needed to do in order to unlock the powers in the dark side to save padme. He had been fed a lie. Anakin taking Windu’s hand was what made him pledge allegiance to the emperor on the sole reason that the Jedi would never forgive this actual treason and murder he just committed. Palpatine, was welcoming him with open arms. This also tells me that Sidious knew Anakin’s heart wasn’t fully in being a Sith Lord. Much like Maul lived and breathed being a sith, and would rather die than become a Jedi, Anakin like being a Jedi, and he fought his whole career against those of darker deeds, so him becoming the very thing he swore to destroy must have devastated him. The reason he was crying on Mustafar wasn’t because of the deeds he had just done, but because of the man he was today was so far off from the man the little boy on Tatooine wanted to become all those years ago. In the novel the rise and fall of Darth Vader, it explains why he was crying, which I’ll quote here -
After killing all the Separatist leaders, Palpatine’s new apprentice had stepped outside the mountain fortress on Mustafar to gaze at the blazing lava rivers below. He would not mourn for the lives he had taken. But for the loss of his former self, the boy who had dreamed of becoming a Jedi, he was unable to hold back the tears that streamed down his cheeks. Anakin Skywalker was gone. Or was he? After all, Padmé had fallen in love with Anakin, not Darth Vader.
Right here we see how Anakin was callous and indifferent to the lives he just took, the betrayal he committed to the very jedi who took him in and made him who he is, but rather was sad because little ani was so far gone from the Vader that is today. This shows Anakin has the ability to still think of himself as Anakin, even though he’s now technically Vader. This proves that Anakin never fully is killed off within Vader. Only mostly, with a fragment always lingering, especially with the longing of Padme, and trying desperately to bring her back.
This is a scene I really want to see in the Kenobi show, or any show that has order 66 relevancy. A flashback of Anakin inside the Jedi Temple during Order 66, showing his new powers in the dark side and defeating all the masters and jedi just like it was described in the official revenge of the sith novel by Matthew Stover, as well as in the revenge of the sith video game. Anakin’s might in the Jedi temple was only briefly scene during the hologram image that Obi-Wan Kenobi pulled up when he and Yoda returned to the Jedi Temple. Anakin can be seen choking one jedi and battle several other. Dueling jedi master cin drallig who was the jedi temple’s lightsaber teacher. Meaning he was so good at fighting with a lightsaber, he taught the students at the temple. He could switch back and forth between all the different lightsaber forms mid combat without even thinking, and Anakin defeated him, easily. Anakin was strong and once he travelled over to the dark side, he entered a new level of power. Power he was only getting used to, and this is something Sidious wanted him to feel for himself while proving his loyalty to the dark side.
Have a great day! May the force be with you!

He had low Sith EXP and needed to farm a lot of it. Younglings dont offer a ton of EXP but in numbers it sure adds up quickly. The little squirt that he first killed called him "Master Skywalker" so that probably sent him into a feeding frenzy.
A mob farm
So true
Becoming a Sith lord is probably like prestige, lose all your instincts as a defender to become a killer.
he also killed cin drallig which probably drops like 10000xp, good grind Anakin! Keep it-
it was also double exp weekend
I also thought it was Sidious's way to flaunt at the Jedi, "Remember your Chosen One? He's my lacky sent here to kill you lot."
He needed time alone with the key to all of this - Darth Jar Jar

I don’t think the clones could have taken out ALL of the Jedi by themselves. I think they would have killed most of them, maybe like 80-90% of them in the temple, but ultimately I think the remaining Jedi would have been able to hold off against the remaining forces of the 501st. Until backup was sent in, of course, at which point the Jedi would have been eliminated. But I think what made the attack on the temple so successful - from a certain point of view - was not only the clones catching the Jedi off guard but Anakin catching the Jedi off guard. Everyone knew who he was so for him to march in with his clones would have been the biggest shock to the Jedi. I don’t think the attack would have succeeded without Vader
I agree. Especially with the help of the battle master, and Shaak Ti.
Hmm, I feel like if the clones went in to the Jedi temple by themselves without Anakin they could easily call in for support. Perhaps once the clones saw that their numbers were falling, maybe they would call in specialized units or the local units stationed in couresaunt already. The Jedi at the temple were at their absolute weakest with most of the council being stationed off world in different battles leaving a skeleton crew of Jedi who were not the most capable defenders. I assume it was mostly knights, padawans, younglings, and older masters who are too old to be sent into battle. This is not to say that there were no decent Jedi fighters at the time of the attack, but very few remained due to the majority of them being sent into the remaining battles of the clone wars.
I agree… Anakin was absolutely necessary for success
Anakin had to fool the Temple Guard at the main entrance too
In the Matthew Stover novelization the Gate Guard, believe its Master Jurokk, opens the gate because he sees Anakin. Anakin then ignites his lightsaber through his skull (which would have been amazing to see) and then leads them in. While I think the 501st would have sacked the temple anyways, the amount of time it would have taken them to get through the front doors alone probably would have let a lot of the Jedi escape.
bro going through the jedi temple as anakin in the revenge of the sith game ps2 game and straight up slaughtering all the jedi was one hell of a experience. one of my top games ever
Great video theory. I couldn't have explained it better myself. You are exactly right. When Anakin first bowed to Sidious and was dubbed Vader he wasn't exactly fully committed yet. He as Padme said is a good person. He didn't want to do this. He hated the Sith. He didn't always agree with the Jedi sure but for the most part he was on the side of the Republic. Palpatine sent him to the Temple to not only drive him deeper into the dark side but to change Anakins heart knowing thats what the dark side does. This is why Anakin is crying after he kills the Separatist leaders. He always hated those guys and killing them probably drove him even farther into the dark side. Yet deep down Anakin was still a good person but part of him was starting to like this new power he had. He cried because he was literally struggling with his Anakin persona and his new Vader persona which probably felt pretty good despite all the terrible things he has done.
People don't seem to realize but the dark side actually changes ones personality. Its almost like they get possessed by it. Anakin starts off wanting to save Padme to attacking her when she disagrees with him. Something he would not have normally done and you can even see it on his face when she falls. Yet that moment fades and he immediately blames Obi-wan for it. Another good example is Count Dooku. For years Dookus fall to the dark side never made sense too me. He didn't always agree with the Jedi either but he wasn't necessarily evil. Yet he goes from wanting to get revenge for Qui-gon to serving the guy who got him killed. He even kills his own sister which was the only family he loved at one point (in comics). So it just goes to show you that although you may have your own ambitions with the dark side in mind. The dark side may twist them into something else entirely. Finding yourself doing things you never could have imagined.
Sidious wanted Vader to go so far down the dark path that the jedi would never forgive him. Anakin may have believed that after helping to kill Mace the jedi wouldn't have him back but they certainly wouldn't after the murder of the younglings.
I think it was part psychological too. He needed Anakin to go so far down the Dark path that he would believe himself beyond redemption before he had the time to think things through.
Let’s all thank Theory for always providing us with videos when there’s a drought of good SW content.
I mean he’s uploaded this about 3 times before but ok.
@@RB-NZ2 and every time i watch it baby cuz there’s a drought of SW content I crave, especially Anakin.
@@Amplifymagic If you enjoy watching videos that you’ve already seen then good on you lad 🤙🏻
honestly bro
@@GazingTrandoshan hey you’re welcome to go watch that shit if you like.
That revenge of the sith novel really described the madness in the book.
Kenobi series please show us what happened I think its been long enough lol
It would be great to see Anakin in the temple, using more of Vaders abilities there, like in rogue one
He wanted to see if Anakin had the guts to dew it.
I'll see myself out.
Ultimate comment
You are so good at voices !
Your videos always provide so much insight into the star wars lore, man. Really thought this was dope.
I hope they show Anakan fighting the Jedi in the new obi one show
They should show order 66 occurring in the jedi temple. That would be sick!
It does state in the ROTS Novel that Vader "already had the same measure as his Master [Sidious]." Its when Vader is looking out over the Lava Lakes on Mustafar right after he kills the Separatist leaders and just before Padme lands.
It said "measure". Meaning he was already at the same power level as Sidious. That obviously DOESN'T mean he was at the same skill level as Sidious.
I loved the deep voice at the end saying "the force will be with you, always". Just like in the old videos
The 6th letter of the alphabet is F.
Order 66 also is Order FF.
FF in this case stands for Friendly Fire.
Underrated comment!
In music, ff is a dynamic marking that means "fortissimo". In Italian, it means "very strong".
It’s crazy how it took the DNA of only one man from Concord Dawn to almost completely wipe out the entire Jedi Order.
Jango Fett's Revenge.
Great video Theory! Didn’t the Revenge of the Sith novel also state that Anakin was able to behead Cyn Draleg or am I misremembering? Because if he did that’s even more impressive now, I knew he was the Jedi Battle Master but never thought of the fact that he could switch between all 7 forms. That’s pretty awesome! Oh and it was really good to see the old Theory logo at the end, brings me back. Have a great one!
IF Anakin beat obi wan, how long do you think he would actually wait to kill sidous? Can you make a video on this?????
Whatif Anakin beat Obi wan AND killed Palpatine!!!???
Immediately. The Revenge of the Sith game shows it
in the video game it shows what happens if anakin wins
I wonder if Sidious would have strung Anakin along a bit longer regarding Padme if he was unburnt.
More novelization lore, this is a good day.
Do a fan fic where anakin doesn’t kill the younglings bc they called him master skywalker and not Jedi knight skywalker 😂
Agen Kolar, kit fisto, saesee tin and mace windu were all killed in the office, ki adi mundi, yoda, obi wan kenobi, Coleman Kcaj, Stass Allie and plo koon were all off world. Thats the whole council. Anakin only had to get a sneak attack in on Shaak Ti (I think he canonically killed shaak ti, although who can keep track anymore). He probably didn’t even need to do that so sneaky: with mace dead it’s safe to say he was probably the 3rd or 4th strongest force user in the galaxy at that point. Really not that much to be afraid of at that point.
I'm pretty sure that Shaak Ti was killed by Anakin during Operation Nightfall.
'Hence forth you shall be known as, Darth Vader...
... Which means Vengeance in the ancient tongue
I think this little addition improves the clumsy delivery of palpatine pulling the name out of thin air
Anakin's story is so sad. In trying to protect and save Padme I believe that he actually killed her. He delved so far into the darkness for her that she couldn't go with him and I also think that Palpatine might have taken some of her force essence when he was rebuilding Anakin in order to keep him alive. But I think the main reason she died is that her only love was gone because he was trying to save her. There also could have been some birth complications especially with twins.
Could you maybe do a few videos on Revan? there is so much lore about the old republic and not many people make videos about it. especially with the Kotor remake coming out next year. just a thought. I look forward to your next Revenge of the sith video.
I always thought Sidious wanted to rub Anakin's betrayal in their face.
Palpatine did want it
That too. Bonus prize.
Wouldn't be surprised if that was also a reason as sith are like that lol.
Loveing these ol skool video's on Anakin/Vader General Theory And Yes I would love to see Operation Knightfall in Flashback to ROTS in "Kenobi" Can't go wrong with Matthew Stover ROTS Novel 🔥 Awesome video as always love the ol outro music
He did it again, the deep voice at the end!! Hahaha great
It sucks that we we were spoiled by always seeing exceptional Jedi like Obi-Wan, council members etcetera because it doesn’t portray to casual fans how powerful they were in comparison to regular Jedi.
We need a flashback in one of the Disney+ shows of Anakin wrecking havoc, dueling Jedi 2-3 at a time like nothing and wiping Cin Drallig who was the lightsaber instructor so that we get to see how powerful he was.
A lot of ordinary Jedi died in the arena on Geonosis.
I don't think the attack on the temple would have succeeded without Vader. There were hundreds of jedi at the temple including masters, knights, temple guards and other jedi. Palpatine likely thought that the clones would take out many jedi but many would have escaped in their starfighters to reform elsewhere. Vader was strategic and knew the best points to attack and pin the jedi in. Some how Jo Costa survived thanks to Disney!
Anakin was crying because the Jedi betrayed him.
I love your content!
Love from the Netherlands
He's going to let the younglings go.
This is the way...
Amazing video!!! 👏
I miss your old intro when Anakin says: I NEED HIM! ... PLEASE PUT IT BACK! I need it . ...
Anakin: Master, wouldn't it better to hide my involvement and catch Obi Wan by suprise?
The Senate: Do not question the Senate's master plan.
*A few hours later*
Palpantine as he stands above a barbeque Anakin: Fuuuuuu-
Obi-Wan wasn't supposed to be on Mustafar. He was supposed to be dead, killed by his own clone troopers.
Seems if he was "disappointed" in his apprentice's performance against Kenobi and what he had to work with post Mustafar with classic cyborg Vader.. Sideous originally DID have much respect for Vader's abilities or least his power and potential. An making one become the very thing they hate and swore even to be against was a strong suit and loved long game tactic of Sideous. For a second almost thought Disney was trying to change something didn't need altering again. An no, apparently, even despite BOTH Sith trying, Anakin WAS NEVER FULLY gone an was ultimately probably impossible to fully be destroyed and expunged. Or he'd NEVER been able to return to the light and be redeemed and wouldn't have cared about saving his kids and by extension the Galaxy. He'd just let them die or woulda ultimately turned on them too even his own kids. Having been turned pure evil an just wouldn't cared if Anakin had been "destroyed" post suit Vader. In true Sith fashion.
Every time I watch a video I like it right away before I even watch the whole thing there hasn’t been a single video I haven’t liked in my 3 and a half years of watching this channel! Love the video buddy keep it up you make me love Star Wars more and more with every video 🤙🏼🤙🏼👍🏻
Love the video Theory. Great analysis!
Anakin would have been better suited having Mace Windu as his primary master instead of Kenobi IMO. Kenobi wanted to be Anakin's Big Brother more than he wanted to be his master and it showed in how he'd let Anakin slide and never called out Skywalkers lack of discipline. Mace would have forged Anakin into a pure weapon of the light whether Skywalker wanted it or not.
I’ve always loved these kind of videos man.
Your podcasts on Spotify keep me going at college, thank you theory 👍
Anakin used Kill!
Enemy Younglings feinted!
Anakin leveled up!
Hello there! Can you do a video related to this? Let me describe what I’m thinking. You’re doing a stand up job describing how Anakin/Vader was able to dominate every Jedi at the Temple during Order 66, including Master Cin Drallig and others simultaneously. How then can Vader later lose in a one on one fight against his old master? Was it because deep down he really loved him and he was very hesitant? Because prior to their fight, Anakin/Vader did offer him to join him. Then there’s the aftermath where Obi Wan couldn’t bring himself to killing Vader. What then was the deal as to why Darth Vader pre-suit couldn’t fully embrace the dark side and easily defeat Obi Wan as he did those Jedi at the temple? I’m curious as to your theory on this! Thanks
I think the easiest explanation is that while Anakin is all out offense, Obi is all out defense, and on top of that, obi trained him so I makes sense that he’d know his every move. I mean hell, even obi tells anakin that he was like his brother. They know each other too well. Anakins arrogance is what lead to his loss.
This is probably the best reason.
Anakin and Obi-Wan often sparred with each other to maintain their lightsaber skills, each knew every move the other was likely to use at any given moment. Obi-Wan used his knowledge of his friend and brother, to beat said friend and brother.
We better see Order 66 Temple action on the Kenobi show
I would if you did a video exploring what would of happened to Darth Vader if Luke and Leia were never born. Would he have eventually come back to the light? Decided to overthrow palpatine? Or continue alongside the emperor and eventually be killed by palpatine for a new apprentice?
Anakin Skywalker is my all time favourite Star Wars good guy.
I have a VERY hard time accepting your assertion the clones would have had no trouble killing every Jedi alone.
They did it with all the rest of the jedi lol
Nobody cares what you think
You know what I wish we had, a Kenobi and Vader parrallel series. They both run on opposite weeks, 1 episode being Kenobi, the other episode following week would be Anakin as Vader. For 12 episode series 6 each.
You need to make a what if? Of Anakin not being sent to the temple. In this scenario, Anakin would arrive at Mustafar and kill the separatist leaders much sooner than in the actual timeline. That leads to Anakin not going through his duel against Obi Wan, or at least not going through it on Mustafar, where he could be burned alive. It may end up being inconsequential, but I still think it’s a scenario with a lot of potential.
I mean it's pretty obvious why he sent him there, I haven't watched the video yet but in the scene after Windu was killed you can see it all over Anakin's face, he was horrified. He did what he thought was right but that doesn't mean it didn't wound him deeply. While Anakin was already unstable in his commitment to the Jedi Order he wasn't absolutely committed or ready to join the Dark Side entirely. Sidious didn't even have to sense it the way Anakin was behaving in his office. He sent him to the temple to commit a horrible act which would twist and bend him further to the Dark Side.
This would do one of two thing for Sidious in either case he wins. Anakin would fall further into the Dark Side which he did, or if he couldn't go through with it the Clones would have likely killed him on the spot there or assuming Anakin defeats them Sidious would have confronted him and killed him later. In either case he would have gained a new powerful apprentice or disposed of a very dangerous threat.
So Anakin can have some recreational time doing what he loves doing :) Slaughtering younglings, and being called Master Skywalker.
Appreciate all the content you have been putting out. Thank you !
It's over Anakin! I have the high ground. You underestimate the additional fortnight of power I have! 2 weeks? Damn.......
If only Anakin had ever found out about Force Heal then he would have never turned to the dark side. It's a shame that George never thought of that back in the day. lol
Who knows maybe it was in the restricted section in the Jedi Temple.
@@eneak2518 that’s kinda what I always thought. Not to mention if he had the power to read the books of the master Jedi didn’t that give him access to the sith books or no?
The real reason why he was crying was because he remembered that the Jedi order was being messed up to him and were bullying him during his younger years so he was so disappointed he had to turn to the dark side and kill all of them.And palpatine sent him to the Jedi temple so anakin can help the clones kill even the skillful Jedi because most of them are strong force users, so palpatine knew he had to sent anakin to the Jedi temple.
This video feels like a re-run like most videos on the Stupendous Wave channel 😢😢😢😢
Killing of Younglings made his transformation final. There was no turning back after that. Killing of separatist leaders or even Jedi was still redeemable but killing of innocent Younglings was irredeemable
He had to start fueling Aniken with the Darkside of the force to fully solidify him and his loyalty to Darth Cydia’s Plus Aniken had a massive army of clones soldiers there was really no physical threat to Aniken none the only thing Aniken would’ve gained was more fuel and more power into the Darkside and fall that much more under the influence of Darth Cydia‘s and that’s absolutely 100% the motivation and my humble opinion he was perfectly safe even going up against those Jedi Masters because he already had massive massive incredible power and already proven himself in battle so I did not see that ever being a major threat for him not one bit

Love your vids the music is so relaxing
Awesome awesome video. Love your content as always.
May I suggest a video of how Obi-Wan Kenobi got a seat on the Jedi council.
I figured it was because he felt that everything that he had been told about what the Jedi stood for turned out to be a lie. As proved when Mace attempted to kill the Chancellor of the Republic without a trial.
The Jedi were evil. And even the Younglings had already been indoctrinated. Killing them he felt, was a mercy compared to living with such a loss.
It was shock. And anger.
Palpatine could feel that hatred radiating from Anakin, and having already planted such a mind set in him, knew what the boy must be thinking. So he sent Anakin to the Jedi Temple to act out with that, not only before Anakin would have time to come to his senses, but so that such acts would set within Anakin’s mind that he had slipped so far down the Dark path to feel himself to be irredeemable. And as a defensive action, Anakin would rationalize that his actions were justified, because it’s either that or jump into the nearest black hole.
Anakin went even further beyond to Super Sith-an.

In my opinion he looked to anakin as a living god. Sidious must have held it in not to bust a nut when anakin agreed to join the sith. It gave sidious the power to hit the nuclear launch codes essentially. That’s what anakin was to him. Except dumbass had to pull of a stupid move and try flip over obi wan when he could have just jumped onto land and continued the fight
Aaah the old intro! Love it
I think this is right. "From a certain point of view" I think palpatine wanted vader to discover the ability to bring back padme so he could take that power for himself. He consistently reminded vader that anakin is dead. He wanted him to keep doing it but he knew he needed to become vaders villain. Because if the sith hunger for power and they can't find that power themselves, they would find someone who could do it for them. Palps is quite the mind invader and is the first sith to attempt the removal of jedi in the 1000 year plot. Makes sense that palps is the villain in many generations of star wars because his power stretches far beyond any sith that we know of. I guess with everything they're doing, they're telling us that darksiders can come back. Even maul exists in the netherworld of the nightsisters. They imprinted old Magic for sure. Maybe the dark saber has become tainted with sith magic? Or nightsister magicks? Plus there is momin and his mask. I definitely feel like the world between worlds will be a big catalyst in upcoming stuff because it's the power that the sith want. The ability to come back young again and again.... but the jedi know that there time here is limited so the existence of it has always been kept secret.
1:46 you forgot the *HRrrrrmm*
Anakin was so good with the lightsaber that only him and Yoda were able to reach level 9 of lightsaber sophistication while being light side users. Ofc a big difference in their ways. Yoda was skilled from experienced gained hundreds of years Anakin was talented and he had made many mistakes over the last 3 years from the Clone Wars. He also had the chance to fight and learn from Dooku who himself is level 8 on the Gillard scale. But the downside of Anakin is his emotional state of mind something that other level 9 users who were only Yoda and Sidious didn't have weakness. It is said that Anakin drops level when he is too emotionally involved especially full with anger, hate and most of all sense of superiority. That's why Anakin never really had any problems fight as many Jedi at once in the Temple. The number doesn't really matter. There were no real peers. Anakin taking on 3 Jedi at once is not all that impressive considering in the Temple he is still level 9 while the best the Order had at that moment was level 7 Cin Drellig. The rest were even below 6 and 5.
Obi Wan on the highground is invincible.
You are so right he beats all the masters in the temple but loss to his own master he needed a little longer to get use to his new powers I think as well
The real reason was that General Pong Krell was working with the separatists and that’s why the 501st battalion was against him and Anakin knew about it because Palpatine his enemy was the Jedi.
Anakin hates the jedi coucil and the jedi order, so maybe an execise in the ways of the sith to unleash him - he has chosen the dark side by attacking Mace Windu and should now unleash all of his hate to the remaining jedi order at the temple.
Video idea - Would a Jedi mind trick override the clone inhibitor chip?
Anakin Skywalker / Darth Vader was clearly becoming more and more dark natured the longer that he was around Emperor Palpatine / Darth Sidious. This alliance was slowly killing the young Jedi within Anakin thus turning him into Vader.
Haven’t watched the vid yet, but I’d say it was probably to have Vader makes amends with (or to put it bluntly, eliminate) his past; to close the book on Anakin and open it for Vader. By doing this, it tapped into the dark side, likely making him stronger, and for there to be less reminders of his past. Perhaps also as a show of loyalty. “If Vader can’t do this, what good is he to me?”
Loving the return of the old intro
The march on the Jedi Temple served to push Anakin/Vader deeper into the dark side of the Force, and further prove his loyalty to Sidious.
I love your content
🖼
Overthrown sideous? You’re dreaming lol.
You missed the point during your commentary regarding the bleeding of the crystal in the Vader comic. Sideous is standing beside it not being bothered by it, Ochio is blinded from it and Vader is screaming in pain….that’s how strong Sideous is.
To help fuel his Darkside energy. The Jedi were almost like practice for Anakin. When fighting the Jedi, It was good practice for testing his new Darkside power. Testing It on the Jedi that is.....
Going with the old school intro are we
Plot hole, why did the clones not attack Anikin at the temple but did attack Vader in the comics?
It'd be kind of cool to see what would happen if the Jedi knew the clones were coming or if someone like Yoda managed to inform them about the clones betrayal and Anakin's turn to the dark side. Or another event could be that during the March towards the Jedi temple or inside the jedi temple the clones malfunctioned in a way and turned against Anakin this making Anakin fighting the Jedi and clones at the same time.
I dont believe sidious wanted padme dead. I don't believe he went out of his way to see she died. I believe he knew it would unfold that way though and he manipulated anakins fear of loss to get him to turn to the darkside. The reason padme died was because of anakins grief and failure to not mourn his loved ones. He was so consumed with mourning his mother that it led to his downfall and padme lost all hope and desire to live because of who he allowed himself to become.
You know how much deeper and more meaningful these Vader conspiracies or possible canon will go when we see the kenobi series
I think he sent them to the Jedi Temple to kill Jedi! Brilliant writing by George Lucas!!!
Another great theory vid
He should make a fan fiction if this. What if palpating never send anakin to the Jedi temple
What if Yoda took Luke to Dagobah when he was a baby and Obi Wan raised Leia as his own daughter?
What does Obi-Wan know about changing nappies?
I’ve always wanted to know this!
If anakin didn’t go I think the Jedi at the temple would’ve survived for the most part.
The REAL reason was because he needed Anakin to delete some risky holovideos of Palpatine and Secura
Man the CC for this video is all sorts of screwed up.
A prequel video Theory?
Another happy landing.
