It’s so nice to see how much the actors loved making these movies. Ewan, Samuel and Natalie all seem so excited and interested, but it’s also kind of bittersweet. I hope they know how much us fans love the prequels and their performances.
@G 84 nobody said watching these extras will make you like the movies, but they really show how dedicated lucas was on making the prequels. Its not fair to absolutely bash on smth that has so much love put into it. You can dislike them sure, everybody is free to have their own opinion but just keep in mind how much culture they added to the starwars fandom (clones, new planets, the jedi order, etc.)
@G 84 What do you mean the story wasn't coherent. He literally had the whole trilogy planned out from the beginning. It might be the most coherent trilogy in the saga. This is very clearly a man who had a vision for his trilogy. Even if you don't agree with his descisions, that's something that should be highly respected.
@G 84 Originals had simple story for simpletons like you. Prequels had more intelligent story that encompassed entire galaxy. You don't have enough of brain matter to focus on giant stories so simplified Originals had to be yor favorite because you cannot even understand what is happening in others
@G 84 Prequels are great films. And they explore more adult themes like rise of empire step by step and destruction of democracy. Also show fall of the Jedi and destruction. PT have hundred layers and all come around for spectacular finale. RotS perfectly portray corruption and fall of the Jedi with their plan to remove democratically elected Palpatine from office before they even know he is sith. Also show how Jedi have fallen and are not even different from the Sith because both deals in absolutes and both looking for their own interests Writing was excellent and film structure was excellent. Sequence of scenes and developing story was excellent. Acting was also excellent from everyone. Lian Neeson as different Jedi master and rogue in his own way. Ewan Mcgregor as young angry Obi wan who looks down on other species to wise master. Ian Mcdiarmid as Palpatine was master of puppets controlling everything.. Natalie Portman as young queen who fight for her people and later was senator and among first starting to talk about rebellion. Hayden Christensen was only one on planet who could portray Anakin and he portray tortured mind individual with arrogance for more power and being overconfident perfectly. Christopher Lee as Dooku preformed elegant diplomatic way of uniting powerful financial players trade federation, techno union, banking clan, commerce guilds, corporate alliance etc... into entity that rival republic forcing republic into war while also getting rid of his master Syfo Dias making clone army in his name using Jango as template to making sure that Sith are in both side and reform republic into empire plus destroying jedi portraying them as traitors so that no one would try to rebuild them. Samuel L Jackson as brooding leader of Jedi Council who was suspicious of everyone fearing loosing power after Jedi become generals in Clone War. Everyone was great. Each character was well written having right reason for their actions. Prequel trilogy is great and can stand alone unlike OT movies that never explain anything about universe or anything except that empire rule and rebels fight it. CGI is faaaar better then in modern movies and that can be seen in bluray and flatscreen with surround sound, unique experience You believe that stone age teddy bears defeated strongest imperial legion like in ep VI? That was comedy. Rebels could when arrive with fleet send soldiers down and that would be realistic while what ep VI done was joke. Ep I made better fight Gungans vs Droids and gungans had chance because they had some technology. How Rebel fleet even survive against Imperial fleet that had more and better ships on their side. And Leia being Skywalker was comic and put last minute so that Luke had more to fight for. Entire OT is just comedy repeat destroying death star in IV and Vi, great villians like Boba Fett was never used unlike Jango Fett and his battle strenght vs Obi Wan plus his excellent ship. Prequels: Ep. 1 We saw master student relationship with Obi Wan and Qui Gon What mean to be Jedi and their powers, Corruption in democracy which eventually led to rise of the Siths. Better look at Tatooine and their customs and their way of life Qui Gon gambling. Jedi and Sith and their prime Arrogance of Jedi council about Sith Queen that actually fights for her people Podracers The Chosen One Duel of the Fates Rise of Palpatine Ep. 2 Civil war in Republic. Separatist with leader Count Dooku which is one of best characters in prequels. Palpatine started his scheme to bring close Anakin and Padme to make him that eventuale choose between Jedi and Her making him susceptible to dark side. Palpatine worked on turning Anakin from Ep II asking for him and Obi Wan to protect her knowing how Anakin feels toward Padme.. Also on note that in Ep II Anakin was creepy in his approach toward Padme is easily understood because Anakin as Jedi should never be in position to make advance toward girls because Jedi lives in celibate and he was teen who didn't know better. Jedi is huge numbers. Creation of Clone Army and their first battle where they had many Jedi, control over air with those gunships and Capital ships. Ep. 3 Great space battle at beginning, great swordfight soon after. Palpatine started to pull strings to show that jedi planning something against democracy while he worked on Anakin to show him that he need to look force from all angles if he want to be most powerful to save life of his wife. We realize that clone army was trap because they was created by Sidious and Count Dooku to create conflict and had army loyal to Palpatine/Sidious. Killing of Jedi under cover of their rebellion against Republic Palpatine play with Anakin emotions and leading to moment where he choose between Jedi Order that doesn't trust him and Sidious who claim that can save his wife from death. Anakin chooses side that would I because he had no reason to be loyal to jedi because they don't trust him. While Palpatine put Galaxy under his control in senat, Anakin started to kill potential enemies to bring peace to his new empire. Leading to this Fight on Mustafar where Obi Wan won and didn't kill him because he still was The Chosen One and sooner or later Obi Wan knew that he would destroy Emperor. Before mask he wasnt full on dark side which show that he cried after he killed everyone on Mustafar. He just went on dark side to find way to save Padme from death. After cutting Mace Windu hand he didn't have any other option anyhow. Prequels develop cast and story in remarkable way. Just from beginning how Sidious become Chancelor, his manipulation of senate, both side of war and Anakin and ultimately leading to Anakin cut hand of Mace Windu to stop him to kill Sidious because Palpatine had knowledge how to save his wife. After being part of killing Windu, Anakin chosed his side and he cannot go back so he accepted, otherwise he would be also killed by Clones and his wife would die certainly. Great story connect prequels, and that is story of rise of Dark Side while story of OT is boring except Vader, Emperor and Luke final clash. Obi Wan from young angry padawan grew to one of the best jedi, Anakin from Teen with long crush toward Padme and having no control of emotion because Jedi teachings that emotions don't exist to great warrior, Padme become senator later and among first started to talk about rebellion which can be seen in deleted scenes. Haters like to joke about line I don't like Sand which is not bad as they make it to be because why would Anakin have any good feelings about Tattooine where he was slave. Still he return despite all that sand to try to save his mother. Luke's story was brilliant and I like him very much because of his point of view. He was last real Jedi after Qui Gon that followed what Force told him and not what Yoda and Obi want who told Luke that he must kill Vader. Luke went his own way and redeemed his father. Anakin story was darker and was forbidden for him to see if feelings and premonitions that he had about his mother suffering and dying making Jedi guilty for his fall in darkness. Later when he had same premonitions about Padme, he knew that this will come to pass so he acted. Palpatine played him from ep 2 asking for Obi Wan and Anakin to protect Padme from hitman knowing how Anakin feels toward Padme because Palpatine was only one who Anakin consider as father and he told him how he like Padme even before he saw her again in ep 2. Palpatine when he revealed that was Sith lord told Anakin that he can save his wife from dying and when Mace was ready to kill Palpatine, Anakin disarm him, didn't mean to kill him, but Palpatine used opening and killed Mace and after that Anakin chosed his side because he played part in killing leading member of Jedi council so life he knew was over so he went with side that had possibility to save Padme and Jedi constantly undermined Anakin not giving him recognition he deserved and was obvious that Obi Wan was jealous of Anakin power holding him back. Also love story between Padme and Anakin wasn't bad because we can see how Padme changed toward him when they went alone on Naboo making him jealous, starting to know him better and see how he care for others. When Anakin was in pain of loosing mother and murder entire tribe of Tusken raiders, he was in real pain claiming that he will become more powerful so that can save others from death at same time he was in horrible grief because killing Tuskens although they they were monsters, tortured his mother for month and killed majority of peoples that went search for her. Padme saw that he was good but made bad choice. Only funny part was Anakin approach to Padme at beginning of Ep 2, but he had crush on her 10 years and Jedi don't teach about that kind of feelings so he was just teen that didn't knew playing cool. And he was slave on Tattooine and later slave to Jedi order while Padme being Queen and later senator also having no relationship as she said that last crush was when she had 12 years. Also in extended scenes this was also mention. So they were both kids falling in love not having prior experience while their civilization was falling apart around them. As Dooku said in extended editions to Padme and Anakin: Republic cannot be saved. Prequels gave us better story of Fall, they explained universe better and had better action scenes.
I loved them then.. When they first came out and I still love them now. If not more. Disney STAR WARS is not STAR WARS.. to me, at least. It's not canon. The Skywalker Saga ended at the end of Return of the Jedi. Period!
You can say whatever you want about Prequels, but the world building was amazing; the planets, Corruscant especially, the Temple, Jedi ways and unifirms, how Republic operates its immortalized by the Prequels. The amount of games, comics, books that took inspiration from world in Prequels is staggering. George really expanded the Galaxy in it, at least 10 times more than Sequel trilogy. I, for one, am grateful for Prequels. PS: Revenge of the Sith being my favorite Star Wars movie also helps. 😂
I was never involved in the 'star wars community', I just watched the films on my own and I didn't know anyone else who liked them. So i always really liked all six of them, like you say the prequels were all about world building and I loved that, it felt like I knew the characters and galaxy so much more. I havent seen the Disney ones, just the trailers put me off and I didn't want Star Wars to be ruined for me haha.
Watched a video recently on just how insanely badass his life was. Descendant of Charlemagne, fought Nazis in WW2, accomplished singer before he ever started acting, and then a long and successful acting career, and even some heavy metal albums too, cause why not. RIP Christopher Lee
Personally although I grew up with the prequels and love ALL of the movies the second is my least favorite anakin just seemed like a stereotypical teenager and wined too much BUT it is the being of darth Vader I’m my unpopular opinion the third one is the best movie overall sorry but SO MUCH CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT ☺️☺️☺️☺️
Regardless if it was shit or not, he had passion in his work, as well as consistency. From how bad the prequels were you can't deny it at least flowed consistently. The newer films are more competent (at times) stories, but they didn't flow well at all and were extremely disjointed. Here me out, cut out the near pointless rebel shit, and tighten up the Jedi stuff a bit, the Last Jedi would make for a decent short film.
DrMatrix1231 Yeah I know, I’m cool with peoples opinions, and I’m cool if they dislike or even hate parts of the prequel’s or even all of it... however I am royally pissed off that we as fans didn’t also give him enough positive feedback for the good of his movies, some of the good which some people haven’t even realized until the sequels came out and they could compare. The prequel’s aged beautifully. I’ll be honest and no one can change my mind, the fans made him sell his work before he made the sequels in the Disney version is just completely devoid of life and is at best an OK science-fiction movie but nowhere close to being Star Wars, and yes I’m furious I loved Star Wars. Also, I’m pretty shocked and Willder that people can really except Star Wars from a different author. Like for example no one would stand for that kind of bullshit with stories like Harry Potter or Game of Thrones. Like if J. K. Rowling sold harry potter on the fifth book and told Disney they could just make up whatever they wanted for the ending and fuck her notes if they want.... like what? No one who actually is a fan would stand for that.... but when it comes to Star Wars we didn’t give a shit that George sold it, like all those brilliant ideas that made us love it weren’t his. All we cared about was that Disney bought it. We deserve shitty Star Wars or for it to die
@@youngknowledgeseeker well said my good sir, granted some of the ideas were "odd", they fact that Disney shat all over and never gave any thoughts to the better elements, it just sullied the star wars name. I love star wars but the extended universe, not canon. From what Disney has made of it it's now just another corporate brand for there image, just like Mickey Mouse. You know it because it's a Disney product, not because it's a vision of a passionate man.
DrMatrix1231 “odd” (jar jar? lol) yeah I’m not trying to say the prequel‘s were flawless, though the things that most other people had problems with I didn’t really at all, or I could completely ignore it. I know it’s not good marketing but if Disney had marketed the sequels as their “what if” stories, out of respect for George and Star Wars, I would have been so much more totally on board with the sequels, I think a lot of the fans would. But when you have creative license like that and make the story however you want it too with no respect to the fans, story, or original author without at least calling at “what if” you were on a sinking ship from the brginning
Been saying for years this is on of my favorites. The romance story was absolutely necessary in Anakin’s eventual fall. Plus finally seeing all the Jedi was great. Thanks for doing this.
G 84 I don’t know but now a days a lot people love the prequels and what he did in the prequels make senses unlike the sequels the prequels honestly are not bad movies and I don’t know how revenge of the sith is bad
@G 84 Prequels were never terrible, they just were not what OT poisonous fanboys wanted which was remake of Original trilogy. Prequels are better than 90% of movies ever made Prequels story of master plans of Sith to destroy republic Original trilogy simple story for simpletons and without prequels worth nothing
I don’t understand why they don’t just have someone kiss next to a microphone.....surely you can find two people on set or even grab two people specifically for it lmao....do you really need foley artists kissing their hands? Lmao
There are also a few hidden features on the bonus disc on all the Prequal films (Except for Episode 3) For episode 1: From the individual deleted scenes interface, there is a small button on one of the projector arms of the laser doors. To access this button, move up to the "Doc Menu" selection and press your Right button. This button can only be activated from the first two scenes and leads to introductory interviews and explanations that appear to beÉget thisÉinterview segments that have been deleted from the Deleted Scenes Documentary, which is almost enough to boggle the fanboy mind. Within the "Animatics and Still Galleries" section, don't make any selection and let the audio repeat twice. Wato will fly out and prod you to make a selection. Go to Television Spots / Tone Poems and let the menu cycle through. A holographic image of Darth Sidious will appear before Viceroy and say, "We must accelerate our plans." For episode 2 Disc 2 : your Enter button Dex's Restaurant. When you get to Dex, go to the main menu, then go to the left and highlight the poster behind Dex. It will take you to "Star Wars - Want Ads The College Campaigns". On the DVD menu for "R2-D2 Beneath the Dome", press your Right button from the "Play All" option. R2's "eye" will light up blue in the logo and about 3 dozen still images from all the"Star Wars" films show up, including publicity shots and scenes from the "bungee jump".
Watching behind the scenes actually adds to the magic because you start paying attention to smaller details in this universe that would have gone over the head of other viewers.
I’ve always loved these. I’ve always been interested in everything that has went into Star Wars, especially seeing the models that they made for the movies. Brings a new appreciation in how much the people that worked on these actually cared about the end product
Natalie Portman looks incredible, around the 25:07 mark. Boy.. Do I love the Prequels! ♥️ But I have absolutely no shame or regret in saying that *Attack of the Clones* is my no.1 STAR WARS movie. So much world-building, the Jedi Order in its prime, so much character development, introduction of new characters, the “calm before the storm” of the Clone Wars. It’s a seriously spectacular time period in the movie.. but an over-looked and under-appreciated movie, itself.
2 of my favorite sounds in Star Wars, are when Sidious force screams as he jumps at the Jedi to slaughter them, and the residual light saber sound that lingers after Anakin beheads Dooku.
"It's.... Very rewarding, very enthralling, and its magic." - Sir Christopher Lee The exact feeling every Star Wars fan feels when they experience a Star Wars film. 😭
The scene where Obi-Wan is fighting off the acklay with a spear was used to pay tribute to a shot from the 1961 Ray Harryhausen classic, Mysterious Island, in which a gigantic crab threatens a spear-wielding human.
This behind the scenes series is so enjoyable. I have those versions of A New Hope and Empire but didn't realize they were relics at this point. Why Disney gotta treat George like that. They just do not understand the fan base at all
I have these bonus discs stored away and remember watching them multiple times. Watching this after so many years almost a different life time ago takes me back "to a more simple time, before the dark times" before love
Obi-Wan: your clones are very impressive you must be very proud jango: they will do their job well he gave an odd smirk like he was hinting at order 66 to obi-wan
6:45 I think the reason Sir Christopher Lee has two lightsabers was because they needed some kind of reference for the cgi yoda in the fight scene and then he just used his own for his motion alone, I think that’s how it works, they do a reference take then a blank take I think, you’d know better than me about the process Theory lol 😂 I’m just speculating based on previous special features I’ve seen from films not just Star Wars
I absolutely agree with your response to being asked what you would ask George if you met him. The only thing I can think of really... would be to just say thank you.
This movie was a big part of my earlier childhood. The og movies as well as ep1. But this one stuck with me and watched it over and over much more often. Ep3 came out and then the same thing. I was gifted the movie twice, lol.
I have a great idea. React to Star Wars: A Musical Journey dvd. The dvd that came with the ROTS soundtrack. 16 music videos detailing the whole story with music, dialog and sound effects.
There are bloopers or gag reels on all the Prequal DVD but they are only on the 1st disc. To access the gag reel and outtakes, from the "Options" menu on the first disc, and on your remote of keyboard, you have to enter the number 1138 which is the name of George Lucas's first film THX 1138. First enter the number "11" (which will probably be "10+, 1" for most people, or possibly "1, 10+"), followed by "3", and then "8". If you are watching disc 2 on your computer an easier way to access these bloopers/gag reels is to put the disc in wait for the main menu to display, right click your mouse and go to playback-Titles and go to title 3. (I'm using VLC PLayer for my video playback so it might be slightly different depending on what your using for your media player.)
Anyone who thinks the prequels used too much cgi, need to watch this to see why it was necessary and how it made it better. The amount of work and dedication in everyone who worked on this is amazing.
Why Dooku had 2 lightsabers during shooting: There was probably a scene filmed that featured Dooku wielding 2 lightsabers against Yoda that was never used.
Attack of the clones is one of my.favourite movies only because there is so much to it, it shows the first signs of anakin struggling with his emotions and lashing out, it shows the beginning of the emergency powers being given to the palpatine it has some of the best action scenes and lightsaber duels, this is why I wish Lucas never sold the rights to star wars, as he said himself he always tried to do and show something new it would of been awesome to see what creatively he would of done in 7 8 and 9 vs Disney just trying to make essential clones of the original films to such a fault that they made the duels like the originals why wouldn't you take inspiration from.the fantastic lightsaber duels in every prequel movie
@G 84 He's seen good movie and that was ep2. You're some old fart that cannot accept new stuff With AOTC we finally got real SW film and huge galaxy. Obsolete OT can go into dump
Funny That Natalie Portman said her guns look like Hair Dryers, Cuz Marty Mcfly used a Blow Dryer as a Gun to pretend to be Darth Vader in Back to The Future.
When you said you haven't see the Love feature because "Love, whatever.." I honestly had to pause the video because LOVE IS THE WHOLE POINT! Hahaha at least from my perspective. Love is what dooms Anakin and what saves him and I think his arc is the whole point of Star Wars so for me love is everything. Loved this video btw!
47:35 I think it's amazing that when this came out the internet was still at a point where they were going to default to using Fedex to transfer data and only uploaded it to "the internet server" because they didn't have time to deliver a physical copy. But they couldn't handle streaming video, so they had to use a complicated system where they had 2 copies of video, streamed the sound, and used some kind of remote video playback control to have the video players on either end start and stop their separate copies. Meanwhile anyone with a chromebook can stream video on wifi from the walmart parking lot if they want to. Speaking of ancient streaming stuff, anyone else remember how "cool" internet radio was for a while and how much of a bitch it was to set up in winamp?

I love how Samuel l Jackson is just carrying around the lightsaber prop.
That lightsaber can actually be bought for about $10,000
@Magic Cookies nah that’s a replica/set prop he kept
Obi wan: *slices Maul in half*
Also Obi wan: not to worry you still have half a body
bwhahaha
Literrally Lol'd out loud at this
This got me spitting my drink out
Another happy landing
It’s so nice to see how much the actors loved making these movies. Ewan, Samuel and Natalie all seem so excited and interested, but it’s also kind of bittersweet. I hope they know how much us fans love the prequels and their performances.
i think Ewan & Hayden now feel appreciated by the fans which is nice to see.
Natalie made Love and Thunder so I’m sure she looks back on this fondly now
It's so hard to believe the prequels get so much hate after watching all these
yea, you can tell they all put love in this
@G 84 nobody said watching these extras will make you like the movies, but they really show how dedicated lucas was on making the prequels.
Its not fair to absolutely bash on smth that has so much love put into it.
You can dislike them sure, everybody is free to have their own opinion but just keep in mind how much culture they added to the starwars fandom (clones, new planets, the jedi order, etc.)
@G 84 What do you mean the story wasn't coherent. He literally had the whole trilogy planned out from the beginning. It might be the most coherent trilogy in the saga. This is very clearly a man who had a vision for his trilogy. Even if you don't agree with his descisions, that's something that should be highly respected.
@G 84 Originals had simple story for simpletons like you.
Prequels had more intelligent story that encompassed entire galaxy.
You don't have enough of brain matter to focus on giant stories so simplified Originals had to be yor favorite because you cannot even understand what is happening in others
@G 84 Prequels are great films. And they explore more adult themes like rise of empire step by step and destruction of democracy. Also show fall of the Jedi and destruction.
PT have hundred layers and all come around for spectacular finale.
RotS perfectly portray corruption and fall of the Jedi with their plan to remove democratically elected Palpatine from office before they even know he is sith. Also show how Jedi have fallen and are not even different from the Sith because both deals in absolutes and both looking for their own interests
Writing was excellent and film structure was excellent.
Sequence of scenes and developing story was excellent.
Acting was also excellent from everyone.
Lian Neeson as different Jedi master and rogue in his own way.
Ewan Mcgregor as young angry Obi wan who looks down on other species to wise master.
Ian Mcdiarmid as Palpatine was master of puppets controlling everything..
Natalie Portman as young queen who fight for her people and later was senator and among first starting to talk about rebellion.
Hayden Christensen was only one on planet who could portray Anakin and he portray tortured mind individual with arrogance for more power and being overconfident perfectly.
Christopher Lee as Dooku preformed elegant diplomatic way of uniting powerful financial players trade federation, techno union, banking clan, commerce guilds, corporate alliance etc... into entity that rival republic forcing republic into war while also getting rid of his master Syfo Dias making clone army in his name using Jango as template to making sure that Sith are in both side and reform republic into empire plus destroying jedi portraying them as traitors so that no one would try to rebuild them.
Samuel L Jackson as brooding leader of Jedi Council who was suspicious of everyone fearing loosing power after Jedi become generals in Clone War.
Everyone was great.
Each character was well written having right reason for their actions.
Prequel trilogy is great and can stand alone unlike OT movies that never explain anything about universe or anything except that empire rule and rebels fight it.
CGI is faaaar better then in modern movies and that can be seen in bluray and flatscreen with surround sound, unique experience
You believe that stone age teddy bears defeated strongest imperial legion like in ep VI? That was comedy. Rebels could when arrive with fleet send soldiers down and that would be realistic while what ep VI done was joke. Ep I made better fight Gungans vs Droids and gungans had chance because they had some technology. How Rebel fleet even survive against Imperial fleet that had more and better ships on their side.
And Leia being Skywalker was comic and put last minute so that Luke had more to fight for.
Entire OT is just comedy repeat destroying death star in IV and Vi, great villians like Boba Fett was never used unlike Jango Fett and his battle strenght vs Obi Wan plus his excellent ship.
Prequels:
Ep. 1
We saw master student relationship with Obi Wan and Qui Gon
What mean to be Jedi and their powers,
Corruption in democracy which eventually led to rise of the Siths.
Better look at Tatooine and their customs and their way of life
Qui Gon gambling.
Jedi and Sith and their prime
Arrogance of Jedi council about Sith
Queen that actually fights for her people
Podracers
The Chosen One
Duel of the Fates
Rise of Palpatine
Ep. 2
Civil war in Republic. Separatist with leader Count Dooku which is one of best characters in prequels. Palpatine started his scheme to bring close Anakin and Padme to make him that eventuale choose between Jedi and Her making him susceptible to dark side. Palpatine worked on turning Anakin from Ep II asking for him and Obi Wan to protect her knowing how Anakin feels toward Padme..
Also on note that in Ep II Anakin was creepy in his approach toward Padme is easily understood because Anakin as Jedi should never be in position to make advance toward girls because Jedi lives in celibate and he was teen who didn't know better.
Jedi is huge numbers.
Creation of Clone Army and their first battle where they had many Jedi, control over air with those gunships and Capital ships.
Ep. 3
Great space battle at beginning, great swordfight soon after.
Palpatine started to pull strings to show that jedi planning something against democracy while he worked on Anakin to show him that he need to look force from all angles if he want to be most powerful to save life of his wife. We realize that clone army was trap because they was created by Sidious and Count Dooku to create conflict and had army loyal to Palpatine/Sidious.
Killing of Jedi under cover of their rebellion against Republic
Palpatine play with Anakin emotions and leading to moment where he choose between Jedi Order that doesn't trust him and Sidious who claim that can save his wife from death.
Anakin chooses side that would I because he had no reason to be loyal to jedi because they don't trust him.
While Palpatine put Galaxy under his control in senat, Anakin started to kill potential enemies to bring peace to his new empire.
Leading to this Fight on Mustafar where Obi Wan won and didn't kill him because he still was The Chosen One and sooner or later Obi Wan knew that he would destroy Emperor.
Before mask he wasnt full on dark side which show that he cried after he killed everyone on Mustafar.
He just went on dark side to find way to save Padme from death.
After cutting Mace Windu hand he didn't have any other option anyhow.
Prequels develop cast and story in remarkable way.
Just from beginning how Sidious become Chancelor, his manipulation of senate, both side of war and Anakin and ultimately leading to Anakin cut hand of Mace Windu to stop him to kill Sidious because Palpatine had knowledge how to save his wife.
After being part of killing Windu, Anakin chosed his side and he cannot go back so he accepted, otherwise he would be also killed by Clones and his wife would die certainly.
Great story connect prequels, and that is story of rise of Dark Side while story of OT is boring except Vader, Emperor and Luke final clash.
Obi Wan from young angry padawan grew to one of the best jedi, Anakin from Teen with long crush toward Padme and having no control of emotion because Jedi teachings that emotions don't exist to great warrior, Padme become senator later and among first started to talk about rebellion which can be seen in deleted scenes.
Haters like to joke about line I don't like Sand which is not bad as they make it to be because why would Anakin have any good feelings about Tattooine where he was slave.
Still he return despite all that sand to try to save his mother.
Luke's story was brilliant and I like him very much because of his point of view. He was last real Jedi after Qui Gon that followed what Force told him and not what Yoda and Obi want who told Luke that he must kill Vader. Luke went his own way and redeemed his father.
Anakin story was darker and was forbidden for him to see if feelings and premonitions that he had about his mother suffering and dying making Jedi guilty for his fall in darkness.
Later when he had same premonitions about Padme, he knew that this will come to pass so he acted.
Palpatine played him from ep 2 asking for Obi Wan and Anakin to protect Padme from hitman knowing how Anakin feels toward Padme because Palpatine was only one who Anakin consider as father and he told him how he like Padme even before he saw her again in ep 2.
Palpatine when he revealed that was Sith lord told Anakin that he can save his wife from dying and when Mace was ready to kill Palpatine, Anakin disarm him, didn't mean to kill him, but Palpatine used opening and killed Mace and after that Anakin chosed his side because he played part in killing leading member of Jedi council so life he knew was over so he went with side that had possibility to save Padme and Jedi constantly undermined Anakin not giving him recognition he deserved and was obvious that Obi Wan was jealous of Anakin power holding him back.
Also love story between Padme and Anakin wasn't bad because we can see how Padme changed toward him when they went alone on Naboo making him jealous, starting to know him better and see how he care for others. When Anakin was in pain of loosing mother and murder entire tribe of Tusken raiders, he was in real pain claiming that he will become more powerful so that can save others from death at same time he was in horrible grief because killing Tuskens although they they were monsters, tortured his mother for month and killed majority of peoples that went search for her. Padme saw that he was good but made bad choice.
Only funny part was Anakin approach to Padme at beginning of Ep 2, but he had crush on her 10 years and Jedi don't teach about that kind of feelings so he was just teen that didn't knew playing cool.
And he was slave on Tattooine and later slave to Jedi order while Padme being Queen and later senator also having no relationship as she said that last crush was when she had 12 years. Also in extended scenes this was also mention.
So they were both kids falling in love not having prior experience while their civilization was falling apart around them.
As Dooku said in extended editions to Padme and Anakin:
Republic cannot be saved.
Prequels gave us better story of Fall, they explained universe better and had better action scenes.
I've really learned to appreciate these movies since Disney star wars came out.
For me, the Prequels werent that bad, i dont know why people hate them.
@G 84 Then why are you on this video?
@G 84 Stop it, get some help
I loved them then.. When they first came out and I still love them now. If not more. Disney STAR WARS is not STAR WARS.. to me, at least. It's not canon.
The Skywalker Saga ended at the end of Return of the Jedi. Period!
Same. After the dumpster fires of the sequels. I have more love for the Prequels.
You can say whatever you want about Prequels, but the world building was amazing; the planets, Corruscant especially, the Temple, Jedi ways and unifirms, how Republic operates its immortalized by the Prequels.
The amount of games, comics, books that took inspiration from world in Prequels is staggering. George really expanded the Galaxy in it, at least 10 times more than Sequel trilogy. I, for one, am grateful for Prequels.
PS: Revenge of the Sith being my favorite Star Wars movie also helps. 😂
The sequels didn’t expand the story, they destroyed it, and they are eating 🍽 the leftovers.
I was never involved in the 'star wars community', I just watched the films on my own and I didn't know anyone else who liked them. So i always really liked all six of them, like you say the prequels were all about world building and I loved that, it felt like I knew the characters and galaxy so much more. I havent seen the Disney ones, just the trailers put me off and I didn't want Star Wars to be ruined for me haha.
@@pegleg2959 I envy you. Perfect decision. Mandalorian is the only thing I would recommend. Stay away from episodes VII, VIII and IX
58:24 The greatest clip of George Lucas known to mankind
That was hilarious 😂
RIP Christopher Lee. AOTC Fan.
He was seriously like a real-life Jedi
Watched a video recently on just how insanely badass his life was. Descendant of Charlemagne, fought Nazis in WW2, accomplished singer before he ever started acting, and then a long and successful acting career, and even some heavy metal albums too, cause why not. RIP Christopher Lee
And Jocasta Nu Australian Actor
I believe that he was good friends with Peter Cushing aka Tarkin.
RIP😭
*People gettin' JACKED in this movie*
Hahaha love that line
George: (I know this is wrong) This movie is.. a beautiful love story between Anakin and Padme Mace:
Good luck getting 52:07 out of your head whenever you watch this scene
😅
What the actual fuck
💋💋💋
Attack of the Clones has a lot of great stuff in it.
Personally although I grew up with the prequels and love ALL of the movies the second is my least favorite anakin just seemed like a stereotypical teenager and wined too much BUT it is the being of darth Vader
I’m my unpopular opinion the third one is the best movie overall sorry but SO MUCH CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT ☺️☺️☺️☺️
madog gg Star Wars Theory (me too) agree with that tho (ROTS #1)
Special Agent Dale Cooper it’s literally all great imho. I even think the romance was well handled and a perfect compliment to Han and Leia.
? True
Attack of the Clones is really underrated
Samuel in Purple bucket hat that matches the lightsaber its a mood
ObI-wan kenobi: I hate it when you do that
Anakin: my apologies master, I forgot that you were a wuss
Thank you guys for all of the likes 🙏
Now I want to see Natalie Portman on an interview with star wars theory.
I’m so mad everybody shitted on this great mans great work
Regardless if it was shit or not, he had passion in his work, as well as consistency.
From how bad the prequels were you can't deny it at least flowed consistently.
The newer films are more competent (at times) stories, but they didn't flow well at all and were extremely disjointed.
Here me out, cut out the near pointless rebel shit, and tighten up the Jedi stuff a bit, the Last Jedi would make for a decent short film.
DrMatrix1231 Yeah I know, I’m cool with peoples opinions, and I’m cool if they dislike or even hate parts of the prequel’s or even all of it... however I am royally pissed off that we as fans didn’t also give him enough positive feedback for the good of his movies, some of the good which some people haven’t even realized until the sequels came out and they could compare. The prequel’s aged beautifully.
I’ll be honest and no one can change my mind, the fans made him sell his work before he made the sequels in the Disney version is just completely devoid of life and is at best an OK science-fiction movie but nowhere close to being Star Wars, and yes I’m furious I loved Star Wars.
Also, I’m pretty shocked and Willder that people can really except Star Wars from a different author. Like for example no one would stand for that kind of bullshit with stories like Harry Potter or Game of Thrones. Like if J. K. Rowling sold harry potter on the fifth book and told Disney they could just make up whatever they wanted for the ending and fuck her notes if they want.... like what? No one who actually is a fan would stand for that.... but when it comes to Star Wars we didn’t give a shit that George sold it, like all those brilliant ideas that made us love it weren’t his. All we cared about was that Disney bought it. We deserve shitty Star Wars or for it to die
@@youngknowledgeseeker well said my good sir, granted some of the ideas were "odd", they fact that Disney shat all over and never gave any thoughts to the better elements, it just sullied the star wars name. I love star wars but the extended universe, not canon. From what Disney has made of it it's now just another corporate brand for there image, just like Mickey Mouse. You know it because it's a Disney product, not because it's a vision of a passionate man.
DrMatrix1231 “odd” (jar jar? lol) yeah I’m not trying to say the prequel‘s were flawless, though the things that most other people had problems with I didn’t really at all, or I could completely ignore it.
I know it’s not good marketing but if Disney had marketed the sequels as their “what if” stories, out of respect for George and Star Wars, I would have been so much more totally on board with the sequels, I think a lot of the fans would.
But when you have creative license like that and make the story however you want it too with no respect to the fans, story, or original author without at least calling at “what if” you were on a sinking ship from the brginning
@@youngknowledgeseeker that makes sense I agree
5:51 I'm glad someone said it. Attack of the Clones is a murder mystery.
Don't let this video distract you from the fact that Mr.Krabs sold spongebob's soul for 62 cents
CT - 3512 I love that you took the time to write this out
get back to work clone
@@thiswont-xw6bq no
CT - 3512 i accuse you of treason against the grand army of the republic
@@thiswont-xw6bq I accuse you of treason against the rank of master.
Been saying for years this is on of my favorites. The romance story was absolutely necessary in Anakin’s eventual fall. Plus finally seeing all the Jedi was great. Thanks for doing this.
45:24 needed to put on headphones for this part. Don't want people thinking I'm waiting something else.
😂
45:34 That zoom tho...😆
I don’t care what peolpe say I love the prequels George Lucas knew what he was doing
Agree😎👌👌👌man
G 84 umm how
G 84 I don’t know but now a days a lot people love the prequels and what he did in the prequels make senses unlike the sequels the prequels honestly are not bad movies and I don’t know how revenge of the sith is bad
@G 84 Prequels were never terrible, they just were not what OT poisonous fanboys wanted which was remake of Original trilogy. Prequels are better than 90% of movies ever made
Prequels story of master plans of Sith to destroy republic
Original trilogy simple story for simpletons and without prequels worth nothing
That kissing sound effect for the padme and anakin scene will NEVER and I mean NEVER leave my mind
I don’t understand why they don’t just have someone kiss next to a microphone.....surely you can find two people on set or even grab two people specifically for it lmao....do you really need foley artists kissing their hands? Lmao
Man, these episodes end in a funny way... Chad R2-D2, would watch that :D
That part where he was starting in the door way of the abandoned shack was amazing 😂
I love that natalie portman thought that conveyor belt scene was a prank george lucas was pulling on her.
"Evil isnt just pure evil a lot of times it comes from good." Dang dude, that's actually true.
The sound from those bombs in the asteroid field was THE COOLEST sound in all of star wars imo. One of the top ones, at the very least.
Honestly watching the love section of this video made me want to cry. Their love arc is truly truly so tragic.
1:01:46 if he only knew how iconic this single sound effect would be. To see the thought process behind it is very cool.
22:00 "guys will be excited because Anakins character is exciting"
I thought he was gonna say something else haha
Say what lol
@G 84 ?
@G 84 excruciating?
@G 84 how
@G 84 ok.... I disagree but ok
There are also a few hidden features on the bonus disc on all the Prequal films (Except for Episode 3)
For episode 1:
From the individual deleted scenes interface, there is a small button on one of the projector arms of the laser doors. To access this button, move up to the "Doc Menu" selection and press your Right button. This button can only be activated from the first two scenes and leads to introductory interviews and explanations that appear to beÉget thisÉinterview segments that have been deleted from the Deleted Scenes Documentary, which is almost enough to boggle the fanboy mind.
Within the "Animatics and Still Galleries" section, don't make any selection and let the audio repeat twice. Wato will fly out and prod you to make a selection.
Go to Television Spots / Tone Poems and let the menu cycle through. A holographic image of Darth Sidious will appear before Viceroy and say, "We must accelerate our plans."
For episode 2 Disc 2
: your Enter button Dex's Restaurant. When you get to Dex, go to the main menu, then go to the left and highlight the poster behind Dex. It will take you to "Star Wars - Want Ads The College Campaigns".
On the DVD menu for "R2-D2 Beneath the Dome", press your Right button from the "Play All" option. R2's "eye" will light up blue in the logo and about 3 dozen still images from all the"Star Wars" films show up, including publicity shots and scenes from the "bungee jump".
I really don’t like ruining the magic with behind-the-scenes footage, but hearing from the actors adds so much more to the story and the characters.
Watching behind the scenes actually adds to the magic because you start paying attention to smaller details in this universe that would have gone over the head of other viewers.
This movie got to much hate.
The only problem I have is the lake scene. Other than that Idk what’s wrong with it.
The first half is pretty boring and the love scenes were pretty cringy.
Yoda with a lightsaber was hella badass tho
@@unnaturalmma I don't like sand...
Not really it’s a terrible movie. Like come on
Sam Lince explain yourself or just shut the fuck up. His post has nothing to do with showing negativity to the movie.
I’ve always loved these. I’ve always been interested in everything that has went into Star Wars, especially seeing the models that they made for the movies. Brings a new appreciation in how much the people that worked on these actually cared about the end product
I genuinely love this movie
The scene at 24:51 is more profound if you think about anakin talking to Luke instead of Padme when he says “stay here, you’ll be safe here”
Natalie Portman looks incredible, around the 25:07 mark.
Boy.. Do I love the Prequels! ♥️ But I have absolutely no shame or regret in saying that *Attack of the Clones* is my no.1 STAR WARS movie. So much world-building, the Jedi Order in its prime, so much character development, introduction of new characters, the “calm before the storm” of the Clone Wars. It’s a seriously spectacular time period in the movie.. but an over-looked and under-appreciated movie, itself.
52:07 that scene will be totally different now😂😂😂
Don’t underestimate how brilliant your content is. It’s so welcomed. Thank you.
2 of my favorite sounds in Star Wars, are when Sidious force screams as he jumps at the Jedi to slaughter them, and the residual light saber sound that lingers after Anakin beheads Dooku.
"It's.... Very rewarding, very enthralling, and its magic."
- Sir Christopher Lee
The exact feeling every Star Wars fan feels when they experience a Star Wars film. 😭
@G 84 the OT of course... It was an anomaly that'll never happen again. Still get chills when I hear that John Williams intro
I love how passionate you actually are it’s always Star Wars before profit and that’s a rare sight nowadays. So thank you Star Wars theory !!!!❤️
I love how you can see how much the people who worked on these really cared. It's a stark contrast to the prequels.
Loving these man can't wait for the next one🔥🐉👊👍
The scene where Obi-Wan is fighting off the acklay with a spear was used to pay tribute to a shot from the 1961 Ray Harryhausen classic, Mysterious Island, in which a gigantic crab threatens a spear-wielding human.
Padme looks cute in these interviews without her weird hair hats and queen face paint.
Natalie Portman is truly gorgeous 🥺
@@rachelrose7073 amen
And her voice 😍
She seems cuddly
When Zam Wessel is killed by Jango Fett, her last words are in Huttese. What she says translates to "Bounty hunter slimeball."
24:21 “star-crossed lovers,” “Across the Stars;” how did I never make that connection before?
“People gettin jacked in this movie” love it Jackson lol
Thanks for sharing these! Cinema Wins and your channel have helped me gain a new appreciation for the prequel trilogy!
This behind the scenes series is so enjoyable. I have those versions of A New Hope and Empire but didn't realize they were relics at this point. Why Disney gotta treat George like that. They just do not understand the fan base at all
I have these bonus discs stored away and remember watching them multiple times. Watching this after so many years almost a different life time ago takes me back "to a more simple time, before the dark times" before love
the sound guys were absolutely incredible, created legendary feelings through sound
Under The Dome was one of the best bits 😆👏🏻
Obi-Wan: your clones are very impressive you must be very proud
jango: they will do their job well
he gave an odd smirk like he was hinting at order 66 to obi-wan
6:10
Yeah It was pointed out to me last year and now that scene always gives me shivers.
😖😖 now whenever I see kissing in the prequels I know it's just two women kissing their hand 🤣
@@blazetastic146 52:10
This makes it so much more cringey.
@@iceblaze3043 r.i.p.
6:45 I think the reason Sir Christopher Lee has two lightsabers was because they needed some kind of reference for the cgi yoda in the fight scene and then he just used his own for his motion alone, I think that’s how it works, they do a reference take then a blank take I think, you’d know better than me about the process Theory lol 😂 I’m just speculating based on previous special features I’ve seen from films not just Star Wars
I love how George is basically always there for all of it.
I'm going to say thank you Theory, every one of these videos lol. Love this sooo much!!!
Anyone rly excited for episode 3?
I absolutely agree with your response to being asked what you would ask George if you met him. The only thing I can think of really... would be to just say thank you.
11:09 He's in, boys! He did it! He said it!
Anakin: feels little angry
play Imperial march on full volume
This movie was a big part of my earlier childhood. The og movies as well as ep1. But this one stuck with me and watched it over and over much more often. Ep3 came out and then the same thing. I was gifted the movie twice, lol.
I was hoping for something with Grant Imahara in the R2D2 bit, not what I expected but it was hilarious
I couldn't keep a serious face if I was doing the "Beneath The Dome" segment 😂😂
“It’s so dense. Every single image has so many things going on”
I have a great idea. React to Star Wars: A Musical Journey dvd. The dvd that came with the ROTS soundtrack. 16 music videos detailing the whole story with music, dialog and sound effects.
Yeah that dvd is pretty awesome
There are bloopers or gag reels on all the Prequal DVD but they are only on the 1st disc. To access the gag reel and outtakes, from the "Options" menu on the first disc, and on your remote of keyboard, you have to enter the number 1138 which is the name of George Lucas's first film THX 1138. First enter the number "11" (which will probably be "10+, 1" for most people, or possibly "1, 10+"), followed by "3", and then "8". If you are watching disc 2 on your computer an easier way to access these bloopers/gag reels is to put the disc in wait for the main menu to display, right click your mouse and go to playback-Titles and go to title 3. (I'm using VLC PLayer for my video playback so it might be slightly different depending on what your using for your media player.)
I always wondered why Theory looked odd in the intros and then I realized, it's because it doesn't have him in his hat.
Across the stars was so well done
I am loving this series! This was such a great idea.
Anyone who thinks the prequels used too much cgi, need to watch this to see why it was necessary and how it made it better. The amount of work and dedication in everyone who worked on this is amazing.
They made a whole segment making a meme about r2
Why Dooku had 2 lightsabers during shooting: There was probably a scene filmed that featured Dooku wielding 2 lightsabers against Yoda that was never used.
*IMAGINE IF THEY MADE A SKYRIM STYLE STAR WARS GAME*
dude that would be awesome
Attack of the clones is one of my.favourite movies only because there is so much to it, it shows the first signs of anakin struggling with his emotions and lashing out, it shows the beginning of the emergency powers being given to the palpatine it has some of the best action scenes and lightsaber duels, this is why I wish Lucas never sold the rights to star wars, as he said himself he always tried to do and show something new it would of been awesome to see what creatively he would of done in 7 8 and 9 vs Disney just trying to make essential clones of the original films to such a fault that they made the duels like the originals why wouldn't you take inspiration from.the fantastic lightsaber duels in every prequel movie
@G 84 He's seen good movie and that was ep2.
You're some old fart that cannot accept new stuff
With AOTC we finally got real SW film and huge galaxy.
Obsolete OT can go into dump
Christopher lee was so correct... Immortal he made himself
Love your content and am watching it during a hurricane
In first draft, Count Dooku pulled Anakin's lightsaber and used two to fight Yoda. It would be cool...
Just found this channel recently, thanks so much for doing these.
Dex's Diner is an homage to American Graffiti where you can see a restaurant like it
Funny That Natalie Portman said her guns look like Hair Dryers, Cuz Marty Mcfly used a Blow Dryer as a Gun to pretend to be Darth Vader in Back to The Future.
ANAKIN IS A SIIIIMP!!!
the Idea of having multiple styles for each jedi is so good, non of that disney bullshit
"I have been looking forward to this"
George has now pronounced Geonosis 2 ways I don't know which to go with at this point lol
i could watch the modeling dept at work for days!
When you said you haven't see the Love feature because "Love, whatever.." I honestly had to pause the video because LOVE IS THE WHOLE POINT! Hahaha at least from my perspective. Love is what dooms Anakin and what saves him and I think his arc is the whole point of Star Wars so for me love is everything. Loved this video btw!
Let down of this movie was not letting Samuel L Jackson say "Die, motherfucker"
I watched these years ago on the original dvd release. I'm sure there's a scene with Anakin talking to Padme's father in the garden?
47:35 I think it's amazing that when this came out the internet was still at a point where they were going to default to using Fedex to transfer data and only uploaded it to "the internet server" because they didn't have time to deliver a physical copy. But they couldn't handle streaming video, so they had to use a complicated system where they had 2 copies of video, streamed the sound, and used some kind of remote video playback control to have the video players on either end start and stop their separate copies.
Meanwhile anyone with a chromebook can stream video on wifi from the walmart parking lot if they want to.
Speaking of ancient streaming stuff, anyone else remember how "cool" internet radio was for a while and how much of a bitch it was to set up in winamp?
This brings back so much memories.
BRUH THE KISSING SOUND AFFECTS I WILL NEVER WATCH THAT SCENE THE SAME
0:50 IDK why but for some reason I REALLY LOVE THIS SCENE
love these videos so much, Theory. Thank you, and may the Force be with you.
The biggest lesson of the movie is "Don't fall in love or you will certainly suffer"
Finally
enjoyment from this movie
that isnt the memes, of course
hehe
i watched beneath the dome yeaaaaarrrsssss ago and it was one of the funniest mockumentaries ive seen from starwars
when Anakin uses the force to send Padme the fruit the cutlery they use is the same that is used in 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Don't forget to like and comment. I'm not a TH-camr, so I didn't realize how important it is. But rest assured I won't forget again. This is the way.
That R2 documentary at the end was better than the entire sequel trilogy.
