Holy shit the rebel kid spit at Vader. He had some balls.

"Spitting on Darth Vader's helmet" That guy has balls of steel.

That rebel had some serious balls to spit on Vader.

No one ever complained about the cold on Hoth. We never felt it. Even though we were blinded by blizzards, we could see the final end of the Rebellion in our blaster sights. Was it only a mirage? Perhaps. But on that day, on that planet, our blood ran hot with dreams of victory, melting the ice that stood in our way.

When I was a little girl, my dad would often tell me the story of him participating in this battle as a Snow Trooper. He would tell me the hardships he and his fellas went through, the cold of the planet, how cool he looked with a blaster, etc. Because I was little, I believed him and thought it would be cool to join the Empire. I later learned that it was all fiction, though, but it didn't matter, because in my book he was a really cool guy. Anyways, this is a nice memory from my childhood and I wanted to share it here. Thanks for reading, stranger (:

2:55 *sees Vader* "oh crap"

You should have mentioned that Jobin was the son of Mon Mothma in the video and how she received his message before the Battle of Endor.

The Jabin story should be made canon

Probably one of my favorite scenes of all time in Star Wars is when we get the shot of the Rebel soldiers retreating and the AT AT walkers in the distance firing upon them. It was so beautifully shot, and it gave a real sense of how powerful the Empire was. I hope we get something similar with the First Order in the new trilogy.

Rebel Soldier: "Imperial Troops have entered the base! Imperial troops have entered the- (static)" Imperial Trooper: "Uh, no we haven't entered the base... stay where you are... we'll be with you shortly."

battle of hoth POV star wars battlefront...

Did he get any recognition from the Rebel leaders for his great commitment and sacrifice? Like come on dude, I hope they at least knew what he did that day.

Actually han didn't destroy the probe droid it self destructed

Battle of Hoth from average Rebel Soldier's view: "Damn, I'm cold...and the only woman on this planet is a princess who won't even talk to me"

As the Rebels fled, the 501st gathered around a burning bunker and let out a cheer that shook the stars. The Rebellion was done. The Death Star was being rebuilt bigger than ever. Order had finally returned to the galaxy, and no small part due to the efforts of the fighting men of the 501st.

Jobin is a hero and has become one of my favorite Rebel soldier!

Never realised how big the battle of hoth was in the film. I always thought it was just a small thing but in actual fact it had huge impacts

What’s sad is despite their spirited defense of Echo Base. If you really think about it. This incredible sacrifice was little more than a delaying action. I’m sure many in the upper ranks knew most of those troops were not going to be coming back.

1:11 I love seeing turbo tanks

The emotions evoked from a simple comic shows that we as humans care for one another.

This made me realize how much I really want an anthology film based on Hoth. Maybe a type of war/survival style movie where it opens with the battle of Hoth and then follows a squad of rebel soldiers left behind as they try to find a way off the planet while surviving against the climate, creatures and pursuing imperials.

That nigga spat on vader lol what a boss

This would make an incredible single player mode for battlefront 2

I love the way these stories are treated like history and like a teacher teaching students about long lost wars in space, its so mezmorising

That 501st journal reading brought a tear to my eye. Of course that Rebel's story was touching as well, but the fact that I fought with the 501st from Geonosis to the assault on Hoth in BF2 turned this story to one of victory

I loved this comic so much. It was so emotional and the fact that he was Mon mothmas son is even better

These kinds of comics are some of the best to me because we don't just see some brave rebel leaders where everything is goes their way. We see a normal everyday soldier who willingly entered the Rebellion knowing that they could die. Their story doesn't always end with a happy note it can end with dispare, sadness, vengance, and sacrifice.

this is one of those channels where even if its legends i will still watch it cuz ur videos are so interesting

It would be better if Disney had a campaign of slowly choosing novels or comics that don't interfere with their new timeline and canonizing them individually, instead of trying to rush through in 3 years what the EU did in 30 years. Case in point: Death Troopers. That was a pretty good novel, doesn't interfere with the timeline, and has already been referenced in Canon.

Cool! Will you do this for other battles? Like, the battle of geonosis from a clone troopers point of view? Or order 66 from a Jedi's point of view?

DUDE! Learning Jobin's story was epic! Love things like this that just expand the stuff I've grown up with since I was a kid. Oh sure, the films focus on the main heroes and events, but if you want to learn other smaller stories and whatnot during, before, or after those events? Well, star wars has got you covered!

No one ever complained about the cold on Hoth. We never felt it. Though we were blinded by blizzards, we saw the end of the Rebellions in our blaster sights. Was it a mirage, perhaps. But on that day, on that planet, our blood burned hot with dreams of victory that melted the snow that stood in our way- 501st Trooper.

Can you do battle of geonosys from a clone trooper POV

Quick question, was the information (or parts of it) for the Imperial viewpoint taken from the Battlefront II campaign? I remember the final mission being the battle of Hoth, and the narrator saying things about the battle that are similar to what was mentioned here.

Dude was honestly brave for doing that to Vader and accepting death right there while saving his team.

that battle scene is by far the greatest battle of all time ever and ever will be in the history of battles.

why is there a turbo tank on the image? 1:11 and an more important question where was it during the battle?

such sick fanart

man those 501st stormtroopers are bad ass. I remember the battlefront 2 intros in every mission and it just made me feel like a complete bad ass😂

Rebel: *spits at Vader* Vader: *damn* Snow Troopers: *What a savage*

I miss the times where you uploaded every day a video

I hope we see an orbital bombardment in the next Star Wars movie!

Fun fact, the Rebel soldier Jobin is the son of Mon Mothma. She only received his message shortly before the Battle of Endor, where she finally learned of his fate.

Excellent Video, LM! 🔥💯🔥 Thank You for Creating and Sharing with us. I've always wondered about the fates of the rebel soldiers who heroically faced the full might of the Empire's land forces on Hoth. It was also good how you revealed the perspective of the Imperial troops who were burning with the desire to avenge their slain comrades from the battle of Yavin. 🔥💯🔥 From a storytelling perspective, it is important to note how easy it is to find Story Seams within the Star Wars Saga to dive into and explore such as with the tale of the young rebel soldier on Hoth. 💫 Building a massive, multi-layered story world defined by an epic conflict and populated by complex and heroic characters is the name of the game in professional storytelling now. 🔥👑🔥 Thanks again for this great video. May the Force Be With You!

"Imperial troops have entered the base" aw just imagine a animated rebels show where we follow a soldiers perspective or just a stromtroopers perspective or better yet bring us Kotor and go back a few thousand years not 400 years

He went out like a G.

Awesome narrator telling the soldier's story and him being brave.

I want a “The Martian” styled drama about a rebel stuck on both after the war.

Battlefront is where you get to see there point of view lol

I doubt I could ever feel sympathy for people wanting to avenge the destruction of a planet-killing superweapon. No one working on that thing was innocent. It's always nice to see the other side, but I still want them to lose.

I have never considered the battle of Hoth a slaughter. Echo base was meant to be evacuated on short notice. The thin screen of rebel troops defending the base did just what they were supposed to, as general Rieekan said: 'We gotta hold 'em until all transports are away'.

I wish we got to see more of this in the movies. To make it more clear that aside from when they are fighting a protagonist the empire had a terrifying army

The EU is so much better than the Mouse Monopoly's stupid "new canon". This story proves it.

Personally, as a Star Wars fan, I reject Disney's new cannon. The Legends stories are so much deeper and simply better. Jeez, I really wish Disney would have taken the time to go through and familiarize themselves with the lore rather than simply tossing all the cool stuff out and replacing it with shallow crap for a few quick bucks.

That journal from the snow trooper was from the star wars battlefront 2 campaign. (Which to me was fun and historic)

That was a brave Rebel to spit on Vader's Face.

I can tell u what it was like from sw battlefront , blooody unfair

it's not a star wars comic/book if vader isn't there choking or killing on of he main protagonist. :/

I remember how this comic made me respect Mothma so much, she gave everything for galactic Freedom, even her own child

"Believing that the Rebellion was finished and they had finally won the war." One year later it all went crashing down.

Battlefront 2 the last story mission :)

Wait, Jobin was Mon Mothma's son!?

I love how similar they made it feel towards WW1 and its trenches.

I never even knew jobin existed. Thanks fact free. These characters truly are amazing and should be given the spotlight. Jobin is now my new favorite rebel( it used to be porkins) and I really like his scarf. ( is there a significance to that scarf?)

What do you think about would happen if one troop got trench foot on hoth what would that even be like I wonder.

What is the book called

I just now noticed that the Battle of Hoth is almost a look-a-like battle of World War II. The trenches and massive tactics of the enemies. But instead of attacks of gruesome and brutality, it had freezing temperatures and unfair military technologies.

star wars goes so deep I love all these videos

This story often sounds like the First World War

Mesa is curios, what does POV mean?

lol, that moment when the trooper went oh crap, that made my day

I love that Star Wars battlefront two reference for the 501st troops

We still remember that day.... When we lost so many soldiers.... Jobin was a good soldier.... His mother broke down to tears when we told her that........He was gone....

I love the artwork in this comic!

Thanks for sharing! That comic from Legends really was worth a look!

It's things like this that make me know legends will always be canon in my heart

Wow that's really sad from the Snowtroopers prespective

As the rebels fled, we gathered around the burning bunker, and let out a cheer that shook the stars. The rebellion was done. Order had finally returned to the galaxy. There is no small part due to the efforts, from the fighting man of the 501st.

80s awesomeness! Wedge was a legend. Survived two death star attacks and took out a an AT-AT. Total baller.

That rebel trooper had some guts to spit into Darth Vader face

That was deep. Great work keep it up!!

That journal from the snow trooper came from the star wars battlefront 2 campaign (Which to me was fun and historic)

I discovered this channel 5 days ago.... Watched most of your videos

In canon, there is a book called Star Wars Battlefront: Twilight Company. It is a good book following Sergeant Namir in the rebel alliance's 61 infantry unit, Twilight Company. He visits High Command, just in time for the Battle of Hoth. It is a good book, I recommend you read it!

Holy shit a snow trooper getting his eye stabbed out is one of the most graphic thing I have ever seen in starwars

The rebel solider perspective "AAAAAAAHHHHH!"

The snow fight on Hoth is definitely my favorite scene in Empire Strikes back.

I remember back in star wars battlefront 2, the trooper of the 501st who talks about their "blood running hot" has the voice of a clone... Thinking that inexperienced rebels went up against veteran clones from one of the most successful clone legion really is horrifying.

I saw this in another comment down below, but Jobin was the SON of Mon Mothma. Let that sink in. This guy was just a corporal but could've become a general within the Alliance himself.

The novel: Star Wars Battlefront explains alot about other stations near echo stations. This gives you another point of view (also that of a rebel trooper). The novel is a good read and the second novel will come out shortly.

Poor Mon Mothma (she's the Rebel trooper Jobin's mother, by the way; I know, quite a shocker). At least she finally passed away before the Yuuzhan Vong showed up the ravage the galaxy. That would have been too much for her. Meanwhile, her Alt-universe counterpart sure is incompetent.

RIP Jabin, you were a hero and had you not been brave, the empire would have won. You will be remembered

I’ve always wanted to see Star Wars from a simple soldier’s perspective. Seeing how incredible the Jedi and the Sith were, using these behemoth war machines in battle, how much the war really costs in exorbitant money and lives. Star Wars is a huge galaxy, which makes a single soldier feel really quite small.

Those AT-AT's. The empire had some crazy armour in their deployment.

Meanwhile Dash Rendar was running around on the other side of the base.

Great video!

Wow, I really enjoyed listening to this video. , The is my Favorite Battle seen from all of the Movies and have recreated it several times in Mocks and Dioramas in the past.

I read this from a concept book a few years ago, it had a Grievous origin story too

I hope who ever is making the new Star wars comics makes a series where it shows the pov of imperial and rebel soldiers.

This would be great to translate on film, if the battle from the rebel soldier’s perspective is done like in “saving private ryan” with its opening when US forces stormed Normandy. In this case I’d like to see scenes where the rebel soldiers were fighting and trying to repel the attacking AT-ATs and advancing imperial troops, blood, guts, dead bodies, dismembered rebel soldiers everywhere as the imperial assault continues. As imperial forces advance and eliminate defensive rebel posts, you could see the rebels frantically scrambling, falling back from one defensive position to the next still trying to heroically hold back the assault until they get to the ion cannon station which would be the rebels last stand. This scene would be similar actually to the last battle in saving private ryan, only difference there would be no one to save the rebels that remained on Hoth as imperial forces eliminated the rebel forces one by one, inch by inch. This scene would be awesome in a darth Vader movie.
