She is so sharp. She really understands all the nuances going on in the dialogue and gets things spot on.

Guys you two are amazing additions to our Star Wars family!!! so happy to have come on the journey with you both 👌🏻

this video had me smiling hard! I was taken to the movie Theater at age 7 to see this and was absolutely engrossed by the whole thing! it was hard for me to believe that this was a work of fiction because the story seemed so relatable and real. Thank you for the watch-along and commentary

If you watch the 6-episode tv series "Obi-Wan Kenobi" next, the story takes place 10 years after the events of Revenge of the Sith. After that, the events of the movie "Rogue One" takes place immediately before the events of Episode IV: A New Hope. In the beginning of the video, you spoke about the reason for Episode 4 being made first. George Lucas had written rough scripts for episodes 1-6 before doing any of the movies. He chose to begin with episode 4 because he felt that it was the most action-packed, but also because special effects were not good enough yet in the 1970s to do 1-3 in the way he wanted to. When episode 4 came out in 1977, under the title "Star Wars", it was not numbered. This was to avoid confusing the audience. The enormous success of the movie meant he could continue the story, and so they began to number them with episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back. The year after Empire came out, the first movie was re-released in theaters as "Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope".

The Sith are able to yield the dark side of the force to channel their anger snd hatred to keep themselves alive. A good example of this is in the old republic star wars expanded universe with a sith lord called Darth Sion. He was able to use the dark side to keep himself alive even after sustaining injuries that would kill a normal person. The only reason he died was because he eventually let go of his anger and hate.

What’s cool it that the last battle between Obiwan and Anikin the actors had become so practiced with the fighting that they were actually going that fast as they were fighting

Since the first time I saw Darth Vader in 1977, and the first moment I learned that he was indeed Anakin Skywalker, Luke's father, in 1980, I wanted to know his back-story. How did Anakin become Vader? This movie is my favorite in all the Star Wars franchise because it reveals the information I had been seeking for decades. The events of this movie make the rest of the franchise possible. Without this moment in Star Wars history, there would be no Empire, no genocide of the Jedi, no Darth Vader and no Luke & Leia. This is, in my opinion, the most important movie chronicle of the galaxy far, far away.

32:05 haha that's understatement of the century. They always push Anakin away and then he turned on them. Love that reaction hahahahah

I appreciate you two actually being into the fight at the end. Most reactors cut out almost all of the anakin vs obiwan fight since there's not much dialouge. And yes anakin is far stronger and the better duelist but his arrogance was his downfall. Obiwan baited him pretty hard with the "don't try it", knowing damn well his apprentice wouldn't turn that down lol

31:12 He only became a cyborg after an accident, so he still has parts of his original body left in his cyborg body.

I do gotta say I love the Sith names. Hego Damask = Darth Plagueis (Sidious' Master) Count Dooku = Darth Tyrannus (which is why Jango Fett said last movie he was recruited for the clone template by a man called Tyrannus). Of course Palpatine is Darth Sidious And double of course Anakin is Darth Vader. Only Darth Maul really didn't have another name, he was always Maul.

"We don't know why she has lost the will to live" Well... My guess would be that She has seen the sequel trilogy....

22:36 "He's Attacking On His Weakness, His Fear Of Losing His Queen" Good catch

Watching this in theaters was absolutely incredible

Awesome reaction and I can tell you loved it by your facial expressions hahaha. Also thank you for releasing this video so soon

I am absolutely enjoying y'all's reactions to Star Wars

_"Only_ a Sith deals in absolutes." -An Absolutist

Incredible reaction! I can't wait to see you watch more!

This just allows such a deeper interpretation of the story. Back in Episode II, Anakin said that people should be made to agree with powerful people by force - the chancellor was influencing him. Later after his mom dies, he sees how he sees the world as being unfair and dangerous and the only way to survive is to become as powerful as you can and use violence to force people to do what you want. The prequels do not blame Obi Wan as much as the original 3 movies do for not keeping Anakin more under control. You can always say that Obi Wan could not stop Anakins destiny from happening. He needed to get closer to the chancellor to eventually kill him.

Keep in mind that the sequels were not George Lucas's story. He had nothing to do with their creation. In fact, Disney actually rejected his story treatments in favor of letting different directors make up the story of each film as they went along. You can save these movies for last, last, last, they come last in the current movie timeline anyway.

I have a different frame to offer you, looking at films I thru VI as an overview: - The Force has a Will of its own, and a Consciousness. It is a ‘hidden hand’ manipulating people and events - ultimately towards the Good. - The Force was aware that the Sith had gained ascendancy, and that the Jedi were not powerful enough to stop them. - The Force, in response, ‘engineered’ a long-range plan to defeat Sidious and to defeat the Sith. To do this, Sidious had to be ‘baited’ with the perfect lure - a prophesied Chosen One, whom Sidious believed, could be turned to the Dark Side, and to become Sidious’s new apprentice. Sidious would have been able to sense if Anakin was ‘faking’ or pretending. The only way that Anakin could be the ultimate savior (to defeat the Sith), was if Anakin was genuine and sincere: Anakin really did turn to the Dark Side, but the Force had ensured, by the circumstances of Anakin’s birth and his personality, that he carried the remnant of Good within him, even during his time as Vader: Anakin/Vader was always ruled by his attachment to family - by a tiny number of people who loved him, and who he cared about. First, his mother, then Padme, and then finally, Luke. So, when circumstances maneuvered Vader such that Sidious came between him and Luke, that remnant of Good, that animating love for family, would be awakened. This view agrees with the notion that the Jedi and the Sith both have a very incomplete understanding of the Force, and ‘the Will of the Force.’ Among other things… ‘The Force’ created in Anakin, exactly what it wanted: a being not only unusually strong with the Force, but also a wild card - a person wildly unlike any Jedi - in that this person was ‘allowed’ to grow to age nine outside the Jedi order, and to become attached to people, to have a great fear of loss. So, from the viewpoint of the Force, everything happened exactly the way it was supposed to: Anakin/Vader fulfilled the destiny for which he was created - a Jesus-like Savior figure, who was immaculately conceived, and condemned to terrible lifelong suffering, as the price for saving the rest of the universe from evil. Among other things, this renders Anakin, and all the events of his life, as ‘like a puppet on strings’ - not really having Free Will, only appearing to have it, while the Force is always the unseen Power, guiding events. (Yes, this does fly in the face of your and my established frame that all people have free will, and can choose the Good or the Evil.) While the viewpoint that I’ve described is consistent with films I thru VI, it does not necessarily work to make the reader feel ‘at-ease’ or ‘comfortable.’

You said at the beginning of this reaction that the films of the original trilogy were only later renamed episodes 4, 5, and 6. Actually, only the first movie was originally released without an episode number, and subsequently re-released as episode 4 once it had become clear that the movie was popular enough to warrant sequels; but episodes 5 and 6 were always episodes 5 and 6.

27:23 Fun Fact for you guys: Ewan McGregor, the actor who played Obi-Wan Kenobi is the prequel trilogy, is the nephew of actor Dennis Lawson who played Wedge Antilles in the original trilogy

My favorite moment during the final lightsaber duel is when the two of them are swinging and missing each other over and over :) They are both masters in the same style.

I definitely think it would be good to watch Obi Wan, Rogue One and Solo, and even The mandalorian before you do episode 7,8,9. You may enjoy 7,8,9 but they're rather unliked

If you want to go deeper into the SW world, i really suggest you to watch on your own the very good animated series “The Clone Wars” (NOT in release order but in chronological order by following the chronological list which is on the internet) and “Rebels”. Then you would enjoy even more the other TV shows (Bad Batch, Mandalorian, etc..). Solo was a flop and had been poorly directed (the director changed in middle of the production), it’s not that bad, but it’s not good. Rogue One is an excellent SW movie, maybe one of the best ! The sequels (7,8,9) have nothing to do with George Lucas’ vision (his original plan were cancelled when Disney bought Lucasfilm) and they ended up producing the movies with different directors and without planning the plot of the movies that follow…

Quoting directly from the Star Wars Legends novel Republic Commando: True Colors, this is the exact statement behind Order 66: _"In the event of Jedi officers acting against the interests of the Republic, and after receiving specific orders verified as coming directly from the Supreme Commander (Chancellor), GAR commanders will remove those officers by lethal force, and command of the GAR will revert to the Supreme Commander (Chancellor) until a new command structure is established."_ It's basically shorthand for "The Jedi have attempted a coup and must be eliminated". The Order on the list that immediately precedes that one is Order 65, which called for the Supreme Chancellor to be detained or eliminated if a Senate majority or the Security Council deemed him unfit for duty. Palpatine would _know_ that this order existed, and thus, would act as stable and in the interests of the Republic as necessary until all pieces to initiate Order 66 were in place. With the only major threat to his power grab gone, and Emergency Powers still in his grasp, Order 65 can no longer be issued and all remaining clones that received the order are mindlessly obedient, trampling any dissent without question. Depending on which continuity you go by, Order 66 could be activated remotely at any time or _only_ upon a verbal order from Palpatine (in person or over communicator is irrelevant).

Lucas himself said it best. Star Wars is about the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker and the eventual redemption at the hand of his son

You two are absolutely awesome. Thank you SO MUCH for doing this reaction.

Thank you very much !!! Remember how you took your first step into a larger world (in ep.4) ?? … now you’ve made it to know the Force, to understand the core issue. I can safely say now that you are officially part of the Star Wars family, most likely and most suitable from the resistance. Many probably advised you to stop here … and I will respect your decision if to continue watching or not. I will remind you only this - a true Star Wars fan does not dislike any of the episodes … have a favorite one, yes - but not dislike any. If you’ll watch the entire saga, in the next episode (7) there are some awesome surprises waiting for you. I watched it and I liked it very much. Still, my most favorite line remains the one in ep.6 (Return Of The Jedi) - “I am a Jedi, like my father before me”. After completion of all 9 episodes (3 trilogies), I watched also “Rogue One”, which is not part of the saga itself, but a very good film and also “Solo”. I hope you’ll decide to continue watching. Take care and stay safe. May the Force be with you. Salutations from a Romanian brother …

I love how excited you get.

They had to wipe 3PO's mind to keep things canon. In episode IV he didn't know Luke or Owen despite having worked on that very farm for a few years after Anakin's mom was freed. Owen probably just didn't remember since he probably went through a lot of droids since then

1:00:20 The emperor wasn't exactly lying to Vader about Padme... Him turning, his anger, etc. caused her losing the will to live which killed her eventually... But putting guilt upon Vader plays in the emperor's favor, because that will make him even stronger and his attachment to love and kindness fades

Revenge of the Sith was the first Star Wars movie I did NOT get to see at the theaters... all the others before I did. I am a burn survivor, and had I seen Revenge of the Sith at the theater, I would have had to walk out when Anakin started to burn (it was hard enough just to watch it on DVD on my TV at home!).

I binged watched your reactions are so enthusiastic and fun! I loved your insights and guesses and how involved you were in the story. Made me feel like I was watching it for the first time again, through you! Such joyous, lovely reactions videos! I'm happy and thrilled to have found your channel and you have a subscriber in me! You two are the BEST movie fans and so fun to watch! Thank you 😀 I look forward to more!

This was a great reaction and it was nice to see that you understood that Anakin was groomed by Palpatine from his childhood so that he didn't have a choice by the end. What the movie also tells you is that Palpatine's master created Anakin using the force. He was always a slave from before he was born until he died.

42:15 The war will end when Palpatine wants it to end. He basically created and is responsible for this entire war, so he can also stop it.

If you want to go to Tatooine visit Tunisia in North Africa, that is where the planet of Tatooine was filmed.

41:25 FYI: The other Wookie that helped Yoda escape, Tarrful, is Chewbacca's cousin

Tatooine is actually Tunisia. At least it was filmed for 'Episode IV A New Hope'.

I just want to give a big thumbs up for how fun it is to watch you two react. Thanks for the entertainment.

'you don't have volcano's at home' made me laugh haha

Great reaction guys, enjoyed you getting into Star Wars.

"I have the High Ground." "But he can also jump." Baap Baap Hota Hai🔥

Guys I “loved” your review!! your Star Wars journey is thrilling!! 👌🏻😉

35:40 Palpetine never said he had the knowledge to save people from dying. He said Darth Plagues taught his apprentice everything he knew, but he didn't say it was Darth Sidious or himself... We are only assuming he was his master... When you deal with Jedi or Sith, you have to listen carefully what they are saying and what they are not saying... Palpetine didn't lie to Anakin, he just keeps some details away

I suggest you to watch obiwan kenobi series and rouge one and starwars solo story and episode 7,8,9

"The sea is just a wetter version of the skies." ie: Titanic & spaceships sinking.

57:38 Maybe Palpatine was able to save people from dying and used it to save Vader from death.

You two are so entertaining you have me watching movies that I never really cared for!! 😂

Star Wars - A New Hope was always called Episode 4 since it was first made - not just because they made the others. George Lucas had already written the stories but could not find anyone to make episodes 1-3 into movies but they did like episode 4 so that was made - but the opening scene with the background story always said Episode IV - A New Hope. I guess he always believed they would end up making the other episodes.

If you two haven’t seen it already, consider watching the movie, Heat. It has a star studded cast, two of which are Robert Dinero and al Pacino. You’ll love it.

Anakin is a full Jedi Knight in this movie. He's no longer the apprentice of Obi-Wan.

Did she forget what Anakin's name or title rather is after turning to the Dark side? For a second there it sounded like she said "Darth negative person" LMAO I can just see Sidious now "the Force is strong with you....a powerful Sith you will become, hence forth you will be known as...Darth Negative Person"

Lucas added "Episode IV" to the re-release of the film a few years later but Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi both said which episode they were when they first came out. So Lucas made that decision early.

Fantastic Reactions, best I've seen for these movies. The Force is strong in you both.

A theory is that Sideous has always looked that way since his mastery of the dark side. The way we see him as "Senator" and "Chancelor" is merely a power of the dark side disguising his true nature. Fighting Mace Windu to such extreme forced that cloak to fall away then there at that fight.

ONLY a sith deals in absolutes "ONLY" is an absolute ONLY the Sith? i hear people all the time saying "this ALWAYS happens to me" or "ONLY happens to me" PLUS, Obi just said ONLY, which is an absolute......that's it, Obi MUST BE a Sith, as proven by his own words

The emperor is probably the strongest dark Sider of all time.

37:21 That's some major foreshadowing right there

Here we go...! :)

The Force will be with you . . . Always.

23:00 Palpatine was the apprentice of Darth Plagueis and also the one who killed him, btw.

I just love your reactions! Thanks for sharing your joy 😄

Obi wan actually got both of his legs and his arm. Count dooku took the other arm in episode 2. With that and his on board life support, Darth Vader is almost more machine than man.

I think Darth Vader being angry at his wife's death was the first scene I ever saw of STAR WARS.

I saw episode 1 in theaters when I was 11. I knew then exactly who Palpatine was.

Don't forget to watch Rogue One.

Curiois when Anakin tells Palpatine about rescuing obi wan he says "his fate will be the same as ours" all of them 3 dies in a death star xD

The Events in SOLO, a Star Wars Story, take place at about the time of this film. Han was, by the books, about 15-17 years older than Luke.

Self fulfilling prophecy. By Anakin trying to save padme, he ended up being the reason she died.

Y'all are the best episode 3 reaction I've seen! Keep it up!

The reason George Lucas chose to start with episode 4 was because he thought it was easier to make the special effects for it and because it episode 4 could almost be considered a whole movie on its own. So if it was successful they had money to continue.

Love got Anikan into the dark side and Love brought him back to the Light.

This is, by far, the best reaction video for this movie I have seen.

Technically anikan did bring balance to the force, 2 Jedi and 2 sith in the original movies

You guys are the best. Love your enthusiasm!

Loved your comment about how brave the cameraman was.

everytime i hear Starwars i get WHOOOH too sir!

The empire actually brought order and peace

22:44, 29:55 I think Anakin told Palpatine at some point about his realtionship with Padme.

I would recommend not doing 7,8,9. At least, not for awhile. It's not George Lucas who made, those ones. They are made by Disney, and generally fans are disappointed with them since they went into making them without a well thought out story. (they totally ignored Lucas's well thought out plans for 7, 8 & 9) You should watch all of the best Star Wars first. So next should be "The Mandalorian" TV show. Or if you are into animated stuff, you could do "The Clone Wars" TV show, which sets up some things in The Mandalorian, but it is very long, and not absolutely essential, so you might want to skip it for now.

see, even at the end, Padme is still saying, "there's good in him".....she hasn't given up......so, it can't be said that she gave up the will to live

"Anakin is the father isn't he? I'm so sorry." 😢

Are you strictly a movie channel? Because the TV series Obi-Wan Kenobi is a MUST watch/reaction!!!!! I would LOVE to see that.

Y’all walked threw every step of the activation of fascism. Palpatine said “they’re defenseless” while he armed the enemy’s of Nabu, justifying the need for a private army. Amadala claimed we need a galactic army to the senate. Palpatine already built both sides of the war to alienate everyone. Once they voted for a private army, a surprime ruler was needed. Once you murder every Jedi and claim rebellion, you now own the universe. These 3 movies are high level chess and I love them

You guys should watch the clone wars series it will give you so much backstory in to everything. i suggest watch it in chronological order would like to see your guys reaction to it

No one ever picks up on the emperor putting his hand on him on mustufar, he did have the power to keep life going and kept him alive. Didn't ever intend to help padme, coz he wanted him twisted and fully dark

The Obi-Wan Kenobi series was a little disappointing, since it was too inconstant with Star Wars Episode 1-6 && the writing is mediocre. You'll probably be too curious to not watch it, though, which is fine, but I would really recommend Mandalorian seasons 1 & 2 first.

After this I want to see them watch Backstroke of the West

You guys give such good vibes! Great reaction... 👍

Anakin could've eventually overthrown palpatine since he was far stronger than him. Obiwan cut off his limbs and he burned alive, losing a lot of his force potential forever. Nerfing him from ever reaching his full power.

check out( SC 38 reimagined) its short but powerfull

I loved finding your channel! watching Star Wars with you was so much fun. I hope you get to Rogue One. It's my favorite Star Wars movie.

The reason they don’t take Anakin is that he hasn’t earned his position yet. He also behaves like a whiny kid wielding a gun in the form of the force. He acts like a person who is self entitled. He allows his whims to control him and Palpatine sees this and easily manipulates and controls him. He is a big reason why everything falls apart.

Beautiful reaction to a beautiful movie, you guy's are GREAT value thank you😀

Yay” so guys the beginning of the downfall of Anakin was how he was taken from his mother in the first Star Wars movie, I mean; in the republic the Jedi were identified at very early age, however the practical means by which they were incorporated into the academy were a lot more considerate, .. although he was freed by the deal Ben Kenobi’s teacher (Qui gon Jinn) made with Watto, .. it was way he was freed, and the circumstance, .. to take this child away from his mother in such a way began the unreconcilable ripples within the force!! picked up on within Jedi council session via Yoda & Mace windu, these ripples intensified during Anakin’s enrolment and early training, causing slight contempt for the council, and especially when learning they’re trust in him wasn’t sincere because of his force abilities. So in conclusion the Jedi order actually helped with the early stages of Vader’s creation not only by principle but more so practice In light of episode III Palpatine was controlling nearly everything!! however slight/subtle his manipulation of Anakin was nothing short of perfect, again based upon the vacuum in his life of no parents, although Ben Kenobi was like a father figure to him, His loyalty was first to the council which was also an underline problem between them, so in many respects Anakin felt alone, and it was the subtle encouragement of the chancellor (Palpatine) to engage and continue in exploring his passion and of course personal needs .. enter Padme, so I’m certainly in the understanding that he also arranged for her to have lesser role in politics as to be able to submerge into a more secretive relationship with Anakin, all the while slowly edging him more and more to the chancellors wishes.

53:35 To the coast come out. Get together we will. A few laughs have…

43:20 Did you just call the Mouse Droids "Hot Wheels"? That's actually pretty funny! lol I could see that if you're not familiar with the Mouse Droid. They're just surveillance droids that crawl along the floor. A few of them actually appear in Episode lV: A New Hope as well.

absolutely loved your reactions fro all six movies. btw. lucas excels in a copule things when it comes to movies. he is extordnary at telling a story. even if dialouge is not always the best or some say acting, his story telling is 2nd to none. but one other thing is that he is so good at using certain schemes of colors and settings to create the right emotions for each thing as well as symbolism, combine that with john williams amazing musiccal scores and you get the most amazing movies ever. as for symbolism, in this movie for example. most of this is more at the ened mind you so when anikin looks up with his tear seeing the sun blocked out, it is symbolic of the darkside blocking out the light (which is simultaenously happenign to him yoda vs. sidious in the senate chamber and pods getting destroyed just after he declared the empire, is symblic of teh government being destroyed and the whole lava planet and reds and hot all that, and him burning at the end is symbolizing anikin literally descending into hell and the emporor himself (lucas said it himselff) is basically the devil
