It's cool how it looks a lot like the jedi council tower

So the most hilarious thing I find about the "throne room" is that its just a modified Mooring Tower for Star Destroyers to dock hastily converted, either because the Death Star 2 had no accommodations for the emperor at that point or he demanded a room on the pole and the construction crews had only day to redesign the tower. I'm guessing its why is has all those capped off industrial pipes and that pit straight down to the reactor (I'm guessing for waste removal). Its so funny to think return of the jedi final act takes place in the equivalent of an airport's sky bridge.

A lot of stairs for an old Emperor.

"My Lord" "Stormtrooper"

TIL the Emperor of the Galaxy sleeps in a children's bed with no space for a lover, and does not go to the toilet. Or does he just drop one down the reactor shaft? What a miserable life.

I love that LEGO Star Wars nailed the meeting chamber, a place not shown in the movie but in the cross-sections books

I'm amazed no rebel ship tried taking pot shots at a highly exposed throne room.

"Your majesty, hum, my emperor, could you just explain to me again why your throne room needs to be directly connected to the reactor core? Please, I'm not questioning your intelligence or anyt..." (Imperial engineer right before being choked to death, probably)

The throne room seemed bigger in return of the jedi.

Had no idea all these years, the Emperor’s throne room was that boring ^^; Great animation!

Always loved the crosssection books. Awesome to see it brought to life!

Ah, the world's most pointless catwalk that goes nowhere.

Say whatever you want about palps, but he had atleast good taste in interior decoration.

No bathroom, but even worse, when you went out the airlock at the end of the video, you created one hell of an explosive decompression throughout the whole 100 stories of the tower. Someone is gonna get fired.😮

Dude this style/ genre of virtual tours of Star Wars locations is absolutely genius and idk why no one has ever come up with it. Make more .

I like that the tower’s absurd dangerousness could be in part due to, in whichever canon you prefer, Palpatine has cloning operations underway, and can use the force to transfer his conscious to a clone. It’s like an arrogant expression that he can cheat death. Or that building an empire was just his first achievement and it was a means to accomplish his next.

It's a good job Sith Lords don't need to use the toilet.

The hole down the reactor is a nice touch...not like anyone could falll/be thrown down it

The most heavily shielded part of the DS2. This was an awesome video that actually adds to the experience of watching Return of the Jedi instead of detracting from it. Very nice work, subscribed. 💯👏👏👏

Like everyone says, no toilet (how can you call it the Throne Tower and forget the most important throne!), no shower, no place to even wash hands or brush teeth. Also, no closet for spare robes. As much as I dislike The Rise of Skywalker, if that extra vault they put in also had a toilet, sink, closet, and shower then I say that's the new canon. I don't want to be thinking of the smells that Luke had to put up with.

Resistance: So I'm guessing the emperor is, what? in the fortified center of that planet sized death star? I mean where else would the leader of the empire be kept on the galaxy's giant death laser/ Military base Bullseye? R2d2: Uhh no. Resistence: No? Then where the hell is he? R2d2: Hes there....in the tower." Resistence: What seriously? They put the emperor, most important man in the galaxy, leader of the sith, at the top of a thousand foot spire, that if I'm not mistaken is most just glass, on the very top of the deathstar? R2d2: uhh, y-yeah, yeah I believe so. What it says in the schematics." Resistence: "I mean I thought this was gonna be a slug fest to get at him but, I mean...he's RIGHT THERE! R2D2: I know. Resistence: Its like he's dangling on a fishing line. R2d2: I-I know.I'm at a loss. Resistence: I mean does the empire want us to kill him. I was thinking we might have to lightspeed a few cruisers into the fucking thing to even get close, but honestly...1 or 2 blaster shots oughta do it. Admiral Ackbar: Suppose its a trap? Resistance: I mean...possible but how? We could hit that from a distance with the shield down I mean, Is there some kind of armada of cannons or a cloud of fighters surrounding the tower to cut through? R2D2: Uh , amazing uh no.... the tower isn't even independently shielded, No weapons on it at all. Resistence: Your shitting me? Why.... why don't we just....'Snaps finger' I got it. 12 HOURS LATER... Emperor: "Your fleet is lost...your friends on the moon will soon be dead and you-" Intercom beeps "What is it, I'm in the middle of my second monologue." Intercom: "Sir the shield is down and the rebel fleet have stopped attacking and seem to be repositioning." Emperor: Repositioning? Where?! Vader's sithy sense is tingling: Luke... we should probably leave this room... immediately. Emperor looks up: to see 100 ships surrounding the tower. Emperor: "...damn it. " Kaboom!

This was more entertaining that all three "sequels" combined.

Subbed!! Please do more videos like this! I’d love one for all the other buildings and ships in the complete cross sections book. One for Yavin IV Massassi base would be amazing.

Aww, the Emperors a traditional storybook Evil Wizard at heart; he's got a massive moon sized engine of planetary destruction but he still can't resist having a Dark Tower on it somewhere. Old habits die hard and the oldest habits die hardest of all, even if they DO come with one of those new fangled Superlaser thingies.

You just earned another subscriber! Amazing work!!!

This is so well made sound effects and everything great job

I love videos like this! I always was curious what was inside Palpatine’s Tower. More videos like this please!! Liked and Subscribed!!!

This video is absolutely incredible and captivating. Thank you. New sub!

Absolutely amazing video.

This is so incredible. I've always loved those cross section books but to see it in 3D is thrilling. I really hope you find the time to make more.

really... no bathroom? no shower? not even a closet? He must have been hella funky

Love these kinds of vids...Nicely done!

This is fantastic work. I’m sure Lucas had an idea about all of this but they couldn’t build it, of course - they had to keep costs down because he’s an ““independent filmmaker.”” You definitely put more thought into this than Lucasfilm at the time. Anyone else hear the holomap music from Mass Effect when you see the display? 🤣

Very nicely done!

I would imagine the red room hosting all of the Emperor's dinner parties. And Vader getting a special straw for his drink

bro what!!! :p that whole giant Death Star and the emperor lives in this LOLL not to mention his royal palace at Jedi temple

MAMMA MIA!!!! Bellissimo!!! Sei davvero Tanti bravo!!

This is so damn good! Legend for making this❤

Awesome job

Your intro and videos are extremely high quality and deserve a lot of praise. Awesome stuff!

imagine the elevator ride up the tower. how many minutes of elevator music and awkward shuffles

Very cool

Well in less than 4 minutes you've done Star Wars better than Disney have in 12 years.

Awesome video! Would love to see one of the full interior of a Venator. Love that ship. Keep up the good work!

Within a second of seeing this I was already imaging a military planner: one guy in a small craft with minimum power drift near the tower. Pilot space walks/floats/drifts to the window where the emperor is and attaches an explosive device outside. Kinda like what they used to do to British warships by swimming underneath and attaching a mine while in the harbour.

No bathroom or toilets ?

Wow tis was awsome

Y'know, it had _never_ clicked for me until many years later that this tower we see in the establishing shot was the actual place where the subsequent action was taking place. I always though that this was just a random greeble on the surface and the actual throne room was somewhere else 🙂

Sweet! Other than the Throne Room, it's a pity we didn't get to see these rooms utilized in Return of the Jedi.

Didn’t know about the sleeping chamber good vid!

More of these please!

Brilliant thank you

Awesome

How about a tour of the imperial palace from legends?

I really enjoyed this…. I’ve often wondered about how it might be laid out and this ticked the boxes. I’d love to see something similar inside other ships…. Like a sandcrawler or an AT-AT.

Great job

That's a lot of stairs for Papa Palpatine to deal with.

I would've tidied up if I knew I'd be having guess!

Wait wait wait, where's the super secret mirror room which was right off camera in the film the whole time? You know the one, it has the evil mcguffing in it.

Lot of good those guard rails did

it would be funny if at the end you could see the two royal guards get sucked out into space when airlock doors open

Haunting...

How many villains live in towers? Let's see, there's the Emperor of course, and Saruman, Sauron, the Titans, and...

In the grand scheme of a station the size of a small moon a 100 story tower would stick out as obviously as you think. Factor in getting shot at by defense cannons and/or any star destroyers or cruisers in the vicinity and also guess whether the emperor was currently in the tower and it isn’t nearly as much of a target as you would think

Love this! I actually started modelling Palp’s throne room in 3D years ago back when I briefly entertained a career in digital animation. Never got far with that project, so it’s awesome to see a completed version, especially one that looks so great. Would love to see your take on Cloud City, the Rebel base on Hoth and Jabba’s palace, if you’re looking for ideas. Awesome work! ❤

Goooood gooood the force is strong with You.

Cool.

Well this adds more fuel to the fire on how badly they screwed up rise of skywalker. They added a whole new area that never existed when Rey is retrieving the way finder

"Somehow the Emperor's Throne Room returned.".......

Well at least now we know that the two Royal guards had somewhere to go when they left. Also... WHY would there have been a seemingly bottomless chasm near the entrance? What would have possibly been the reason for that insane safety hazard? Many believe it went straight to the main reactor... again... WHY?

This is way better than rise of Skywalker

It looks like Star Wars characters don't need to eat, go the bathroom, shower, or change clothes. I mean, they never seem to change outfits, so I guess the don't need a closest. A washing machine would be nice though. Except for the one table scene in The Phantom Menace, I don't think I remember anyone cooking or eating - must be nice.

I never realized that the throne room was in a tower. I thought one end of it just happened to be facing outwards

Important to be so high, so he could take a dramatically and very long fall …

All things considered, Emperor Palpatine is rather modest in his attire. He just wears a simple black robe, and even the throne room on the Death Star II is rather utilitarian.

He probably drops his deuces down the shaft. But sometimes levitates them and slaps Vader's lenses with the dookie ("Nooooooooo!") or if his ANGUH got the best of him, Vader's air intake grill.

You would be able to see the Death Star for literally 100s of miles. Even from that height

the exposed shaft with inward sloping guard rails looks a tad hazardous.

Fantastic guy masterstroke

I always thought the "emperor's thrown room" was nothing more than a spot the emperor chose to confront and turn Luke to the darkside. It's too utilitarian to be his official residence. That was also one of my issues with Rise of Skywalker.

You just know there was a stuffed teddy(Wampa)bear tucked into the bed.

Iunno. Feels like a real downgrade compared to that spacious office on Coruscant with a view of the city. I mean, how often is he even gonna use this anyway? I'd say this might be a case of architects promising a luxury apartment to sell the thing only to scale back.

"The Emperor's Tower stands 100 stories tall..." Wow, that must be one long boring elevator ride.

One thing I've wondered for some time is why the window behind it is shaped like it is. Sure, it's round, but it's the mullions that are shaped that pattern

That's a long ass elevator ride.

What's it on the market for?

You can't hide forever Luke.

There's no toilet up there. So, I guess that if you want to go, you either go in a corner, or take a lift a hundred stories down, and begin your search for one. Wait. Palpatine has the Sankara Stones? 2:44

Must suck having to take the turbo lift down to the bathroom every time , should have included an ensuite in the tower 😂

No bathroom? No kitchen? What, does he have to take a long elevator down when he has to take a shit?

After all these years still no explanation of what that blue thing was that palpatine fell into that made him explode

Where is the Wayfinder room?

Where is the secret compartment?...The compartment Rey discovered in Episode IX in the Throne Room?

There are many aspects of The Force that many would consider to be strange, bizarre, perverse and highly unnatural

Cool. Where does he crap?

There is a book by DK called Inside the Worlds of Star Wars Trilogy that depicted the throne room just like in this video

from what movie?

Where's the vault room?

This is so cool, but where is the bathroom?

This is awesome the only thing forgotten is the secret vault on the emporers left handnside while seated in the throne room.
