I think Ewan is supposed to return as a force ghost in the new trilogy. He was speaking to Rey in VII. I don't know how they'll explain him as being younger in a ghost form but hey, if anyone can do it, he can.

Seeing Ewan McGregor again in a spin off would be so awesome.

They could just make him appear older.

I would kill to see him reprise Obi-Wan. He was my favorite character and actor in the prequels.

Sean Dobbins Thing is though, he's like the perfect age for it to be set between episodes III and IV. They wouldn't really need to make him look that older.

Fuck yeah!!!!

Yes definetly. It explains how the jedi became the myth in the original trilogy they were hunted down.

I would add the podracer scene from the phantom menace

The Pod Racer is a good thing of the prequels? Really? That scene was created just because of a (very bad) racing game, only made to put much more money on George Lucas's wise-ass bank account!

That being said, it was still a very well put together scene, Tiger Robocop.

You're breathtaking!

You're also breathtaking

All trilogies have good music tbh. That's why I love them

No its Sammuel L Jackson as Mace Windu

Not just the music all the sound design is superb.

His acting was intentional too. Anakin was described to him as emotionally detached, dead inside, and struggled to find the right words to say. So all of his “bad acting” is actually intentional

Matt black, and to add on to that Hayden tried to mimic James Earl Jones’ speech pattern.

@@zehahahahahahahahaha677 Hayden when he wasn't talking in revenge of the sith WAS Darth Vader. The dialogue was a bit cringe but i think that was sorta intentional

Let's be fair, Lucas fucked up Heyden's acting by his direction, which was also fucked up because nobody dared call him out on stuff he could make better

Plus he’s an actor he’s there to get the job done and listen to the director on his lines and characters

I agree 100%.

He isn’t a well known character we don’t know much about, and blends in with all the other Jedi masters. You have to had seen the comics and tv shows where he has a presences to actually understand and feel the character.

It's now how believable the character is, it's how necessary they are to the narrative.

That's funny, then, because so many people claim Obi-Wan was boring and wooden in Episode I - does that mean they think Obi-Wan was boring and wooden in Episode IV?

i thought Obi Wan was the most interesting character of the prequels in terms of performance. i think people are just trying to make the prequels seem worse than they really are. sure they were terrible as hell, but not every single detail about them is bad.

@@matthewheywood8532 dude opinions change in regions, mass around where I live believe the exact opposite with the new trilogy with force awakens suxks and tlj is better

personally, the star wars fans in my area have the opinion that the prequels are pretty good save for a few unsavory characters (those being Jar Jar and Anakin in the first 2 episodes), the originals are great, and the sequels, as once said by Red Letter Media about The Phantom Menace, 'are a bigger disappointment than my son'

Also, Palpatine had already won when he executed order 66. At that point he's just having fun, like continuing a Civilization game after you've already reached a science victory.

Also the dark side feeds of emotion the same way as the light side feeds of being calm and collected.

The laughing is just very very great because it shows how evil and menacing he is

@@wtfduud I guess i can see your point... but how's that an ultimate Win Condition

@@xm_heecka.laddder.job_mx5962 because of how many Jedi were killed because of order 66! Yeah there were survivors. But I'm reminded of that one line one of the lizards in the good reboot to Thundercats once said when they invaded the cats capital about how they went from the Apex race to near-extinction in one night! Remember when it comes down to the Sith the end goal was the destruction of the Jedi. Their numbers are now low and they've now been defamed and he has become emperor permanently! A best Yoda was coming to kill him so at the very least that will put an end to his plans but even if he had killed him here and then the Jedi reputation was destroyed and their numbers low at best it took living under his tyranny for two decades before people wanted the Jedi back period but imagine if Yoda had actually succeeded! Palpatine already put down the groundwork that the Jedi have betrayed the Republic and tried to kill him already. This would just be seen as the remnant successfully assassinating him. Yes this also means that with his death that also means Vader would have died where he was left by Obi-Wan! But somebody would have taking the helm and in the end the Jedis reputation would not have been restored it would have been damaged almost forever because remember it took the Tyranny for people to basically start to ask where did Jedi really bad guys I mean it only took two decades for people to start believing the force was just fairy tales along with the Jedi if you had that one commander who is dumb enough to provoke Vader into Force choking him was an example alongside even Han saying it was a dead religion and not believing! There was time to cool down where in the worst-case scenario I'd have to say that people who look or are from the Middle East still get a bad rap as the definition of what a terrorist is to the point that people think terrorists means them instead of you know the actual description after what happened on September 11th even to this day!

JayAre Michael Good point.

@SavageGrenadier25 It is as well, misdirection. He also needed it as in the 2003 Clone Wars he used it as a weapon when he cant use his lightsaber.

No.. He was trying to claim disability

How does the force work like that?! It still would've affected his spine in some capacity.

It's to sort the evil from the merciful. Think about it. You would not assume that someone walking and limping with a cane would be so powerful. So if someone tries to mug Yoda and assumes he's weak, Yoda can kick ass when he needs to.

And that alone is reason enough to like them. Not as good as ANH or ESB, but let's face it, Lucas kinda topped himself with "I am your father" and his work started to decay from there. I mean, a powerful empire defeated by a primitive tribe of Teddy Ruxpins? Are you fucking kidding me?

That was the point though. Lucas wanted to show how innovation and dedication can beat all powerful weapons. He intially intended it to be Wookies, till someone (I think it was Harrison Ford) pointed out that Chewie is a master mechanic, and therefore people would generally assume that Wookies are too tech savy and it would end poorly, thus he pulled Ewoks out his ass.

HolyknightVader999 True, but well. That is what Lucas said happened during production. He also intended to have the primiatives beat the Empire in a David VS Goliath fashion, and he originally intended to use Wookies. However, as Chewie was shown to be techonologically advanced, and lore-wise Wookies were enslaved by the Empire to work as repairers and builders of starfighters it was felt that they wouldn't work well.

That's a bad thing.

MRR D exactly...AND if you read The Rise and Fall of Darth Vader, then you get a better and more fleshed out romance story between Anakin and Padme...then when you rewatch the movies, they seem so much better, because you can easily see what the writers and Director were aiming for.

And the cgi

I think when people say they hate the Prequels they generally mean they hate the dialogue and some of the bad humor. Episode 1 & 2 can also be very... very boring at points.

It boils down to almost everything you listed needing the suffix "at times". A successful movie can make you feel like that most, if not all of the time. I'm guessing the prequels didn't do so for most fans.

Out of the all star wars

@Merciless Freak All movies do, Revenge of the Sith is my favorite also. I mean you have to realize that three of the movies are utterly terrible, that being episode 2,7 and 8. 1 is medicore as well. So that leaves only half the movies on the good and great scale. The only one I'd put on par with 3 is 5.

@Merciless Freak well its just my own opinion

Thank you! It's actually tied with A New Hope as my favorite!

Except for the “she’s losing the will to live” scene. But other than that, Episode 3 is great

Joshua D I choose to believe that she actually died because the Emperor was using Darth Plagueis’ powers to keep Vader alive, while taking life from Padmè in the process to make it all work.

@@damainmane4765 The gender of Maul and Dooku doesn't effect what he's saying, and as I recall Anakin wasn't always a cyborg either.

It made us care more about the characters from the prequels. Even if I already cared about them before the series, the depth, backstory, personality, and overall persona of them was hugely expanded, it gave me reason to enjoy the prequels more than I did initially and give them another watch.

And gave us many new fan-favorite characters that weren't in any Star Wars media prior to the series.

I know it add up to be about two hours in the end but I still like the star wars mini series clone wars (the one that was in 5 min segments). It was fast paced but not rushed and filled in what happened between episodes 2 and 3 including why grievous had a breathing problem.

Clone Wars should've been Episode 2, just after Attack of the Clones (without the dumb romance scenes removed to explain what happened during Phantom Menace).

Thomas Grindol True. It gave us a better look in onto Anakin’s distrust in the council and a better look at other characters like Plo-koon and Kit Fisto

Ian McDiarmid seems like a great guy in real life. I haven't met him but in the behind the scenes footage of Revenge of the Sith he seems to be a very respectable gentleman. However, he clearly loved playing Palpatine so I wonder how much of his own inner darkness (everyone has it, it just takes different forms depending on the person) he was channeling in order to portray him? Every time he was onscreen, whether he was being subtle, cheerful, manipulative, charming, humorous, vicious or batshit insane, he was having the time of his life. Like Doug said here, you see him in every light a good villain should be seen in. Sometimes he was over-the-top but he also knew when to be quiet and just let you soak up how charmingly evil Palpatine was.

@@daddywarbucks81 No, just FUCKING no. To say that Anakin’s fall to the dark side is “abrupt” or out of “Nowhere” is simply not true and a failure of understanding. The entire movie’s direction is pinpointing to the act of Choices of you value the most. From episode 2, Anakin gets visions on his mother being endanger and being under stress. When he finally finds out where she is, she dies in his arms, and becomes enraged and starts killing in a mass rampage on the people who killed her. It makes sense to get pissed off and go enraged if you’re mom dies and ESPECIALLY if she gets killed. I don’t know what person who doesn’t love their own mother wouldn’t go on a killing spree if someone killed the person they loved especially when they easily have the power to do so. Do I approve of the act, no, but it makes sense given the content. At Shimi’s Funeral, Anakin promises that he doesn’t want anymore people the cares about to die anymore and desires to have the power to stop that from happening. Years later where in episode 3. The main plot device in this movie is Anakin’s vision of his wife dying in labor. Anakin already got a vision of someone he loved dies in his visions so him not accepting that someone else could die is just absurd and it makes sense for him to act. From that moment on Anakin is under a ticking time bomb clock for months on end on what he has to do. He’s constantly worrying about how he has he’s trying to save her throughout the film so much that he has to go to master Yoda for advice ,but even then, that advice is abysmal to tell someone to just let their wife die (granted he didn’t know that was the reason but still). And given the fact that he was getting conflicted feelings towards the Jedi order given the fact the council didn’t trust him and forcing him to spy over him friend for the council, things were only getting worse for Anakin getting to where his allegiance lies onto. Anakin as a person was always a character who submitted to his emotions and got VERY personal when things effected him. This is even carried over to the clone wars show. He chose to have a wife when he was the Jedi Order forbid to love, he chose to rescue Obiwan instead leave him when he had to save the chancellor, and he lunged after dooku after when he shot padme. Anakin's emotions were like a clock bomb. He clearly suffered tremendously from his childhood and the death of his mother, yet no one helped him in the order except for telling him to forget about his emotions, add that to the continuous stress of war and there you have it, a jealous, irascible and tormented man. Him doing hasty emotional decisions has always been ingrained into his character and he’s left into a emotional breaking point at the point of his wife’s inevitable death. And then Palpaltine, being someone who was always close to him, give him a promise that he could save his loved one. Anakin is left with a conflicting choice after realizing his options, either let his wife and children die and stay true to the Jedi order or do whatever it takes to save the people he love even if it means damning himself. At the moment, when he sees mace windu about to kill the Sith Lord who was unarmed (the thing that Jedi are not supposed to do) and have mace say the say line about “he’s too dangerous to kept alive” about sidious, the same line that sidious said about dooku, the line for Jedi and Sith for him gets blurred. He makes his choice, he slays windups along with Palpatine and choices to side with the dark side as long as it gets him what he wants. NOTING about this was “forced” or unconvincing. This was VERY well built up from episode 2 and onward. And what was he to do, huh? Ask the Jedi council/order for help? You mean the same order that says it’s wrong to love and say having emotions are bad and to just mediate your problems away? The same order that takes children from their families and have them never see each other again? The same order that publicly humiliates a 9 year old kid in front of it’s leaders for loving his mom instead of being a emotionless drone? The same order that doesn’t go out to save that 9 year old kid’s mom from slavery and allows slavery to happen instill caustrophes happen? The council clearly didn’t trust because he had “emotions”. Fucking EMOTIONS. That alone was enough for them to not be trustworthy of him, that’s insane. And it’s clearly written that way to highlight how arrogant and dogmatic these monks are with their views and traditions which are the REASON for why this shit even started. If the Jedi were more opened minded to things and ways of lives as simple as something as allowing someone to love and actually talked to each other personally instead of just telling them to mediate their problems out of the picture, none of this shit would have happen. If the Jedi order were capable of stopping someone from death, that would have been shown to do so and it clearly wasn’t and Anakin was in a ticking clock count down for him to find a solution to his problem and Palpatine, the person who always been at his good side and tells him what he feels isn’t wrong and tried to be his understanding friend, was there for him with a possible solution. This was about making a choice. An extremely difficult fucking choice to make for himself. The woman he loves or the Jedi Order. Love or duty. An individual or a whole foundation. And he made his choice on what’s the most important thing t o him. This is a question that most people have a hard time answering, these “what if” that people have a hard time answering and for Anakin, these “what if you had to choose you’re wife or thousands to innocents of people,” became reality. And Anakin commits a genocide, he slaughters innocents, and he allows evil to exist because Anakin killing children isn’t something he relishes on doing as there’s no evidence to say that he say that he did in anyway but He values Padme and his future family MORE than the lives of people who he doesn’t have any real attachment too. Does he enjoy it, no, but he does it regardless because that’s the path he does to attain power for who he values MORE than anyone else. He even acknowledges what he did was bad by crying a moment at mustrafar after killing the separatists leaders but accepts his decision by not backing down and knowing he can’t go back on his decision. Him chocking out Padme is his mind getting corrupted by the dark side as there is so much evidence to say the dark side makes you do irrational actions because the dark side is based on fear, hatred, anger and those traits NEVER make anyone do rational actions unless you’re palatine who relish on that shit. There’s a reason for why the rule of two was created, because the Sith are so illogical in the dark side to the point it resulted in too much infighting in mass scale that it would eventually lead to their own annihilation because power, insanity, and vice so they decided to only have TWO Sith because only two should be enough that continue their existence, and even then their STILL betraying one another for power. So it makes sense for Anakin’s insane decision making and ramblings. That’s what the dark side DOES, it makes you insane. Look at fucking Darth Maul how he got cut in half and got pissed at Kenobi for DECADES for doing so even though he doesn’t see the hypocrisy that he himself is slaughtering innocent people left and right in his life BEFORE and after the act. The dark side of the force warps your mind and makes you do crazy shit. These movies are from being pitch perfect, as the romance is horrid to watch and somewhat illogical to even being with, the dialogue is still atrocious, and too much CGI everywhere but Anakin’s development on what he values above all else makes sense and is done well.

@@daddywarbucks81 That's a massive misunderstanding of the film. No wonder you don't enjoy it with ignorance like that...

Personally I think that during fights he uses the force to compensate for his aging body, but when he's not fighting and not using the force to aid him he actually does need the cane.

Love that, seeing as during order 66 two stormtroopers figured Yoda would’ve been as easy to gun down as the rest of the Jedi 😅 before the swoooosh! And then no head!

Number 13: Obi Wan's "you were the chosen one!" monologue. How obi managed to cut anakins limbs just looked ridiculous, but the emotion put into that last speech was undeniably human and powerful. " you were my brother anakin, I loved you".

Except that that speech is rendered meaningless considering he was never "like a brother" to anakin.

Both the Prequels and The Clone Wars AND the comics shows how much Kenobi loved Skywalker.

PuppyStream true

You mean lazy story telling that ties up all loos ends and conflicts with the originals

100% agree, he adds so much more depth to the manipulative, extremely intelligent and talented puppet master character rather than just an old decrepit looking ballsack in the OT. Really loved the plot ideas- how the empire developed through political manouvering and his manipulation of anakin, seeing vader as a kind little kid contrasting with the huge menacing figure and then seeing how and why he became vader. The execution was absolutely atrocious though. so much potential all fucked up.

@Mammoth Supremacy 55 not yet

Finally someone said it.

Agreed! And Shmi... Aweful acting. I think the Darth Jar Jar theory could have fixed many of the problems with the prequels.

The Darth Jar Jar thing could have made everything so much better...

JarJar never bothered me. In fact, I think he could have been the answer to one of my biggest problems with the Prequels: There's no everyman. Seriously, every person in the Prequels is connected to either the Force or the Senate. There is no character is not bound by these restraints, someone who can actually say what the audience says like Han Solo in the original trilogy. JarJar could have filled this role but Lucas downplayed him after Ep1.

jar jar love scenes ? wtf where ? when ! noooooo.....now that you said it ..We demand a movie about JAr JAR origins ..his history ,his loves . the gungan city .which is awesome by the way .I wish we could build cities like that underwater.. wow

Sounds an awful lot like fan fiction to me. I much prefer the idea that while Yoda is quite frail in his state, his knowledge and mastery of the force allows him to overcome that by giving of a burst of agility and physical strength. It would explain why his fight scenes are so short in canonical fights as that wears off. It's even present when he lifts the X Wing from the swamp. If his staff was some sort of limitless force channeling device then he would not have looked nearly as tired as did after moving that.

@@grizzl360 i do believe both of these are true, and used to be canon (in one way or another). the cane i'm not sure on, but i doubt it'd be limitless- it's more like a palliative. but i'm pretty sure him using the force to move his body and give him the strength of his youth is canon. but it's temporary- hence why after fighting, he immediately calls his cane back before walking. using the force does put strain on you.

Before his fight with duku he absorbed force lightning and he drops the cane, he is really old and frail yes but he is a true master of the force with no real equals so I can believe him using some technique that allows him to fight like we see

no.

Consider also watching CinemaWins' "Everything GREAT About..." videos on each of the prequel films. His analyses are fantastic and made me consider aspects of the story I've never thought about before. His videos helped me to conclude that the prequels are actually quite good films, and the only thing that held them back was the execution. Here's the video on TPM: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h9agfLF8lZqWfmw.html

Yeah me too

He does mention the music as his "11.5" early on :P

I think it deserved its own place in the list. You could tell John Williams composed his ass off for the prequels, especially for Episode 1. Whereas I thought his score for Force Awakens was boring as hell and just reused old themes from the original trilogy.

I think the music goes without saying... On the topic of Phantom Menace music though, you can't beat the cleverness of his inclusion of the "Sith" theme song at the end of the movie: At the big victory parade the musical fanfare is little more than the Sith theme play in a major, up-tempo manner. It took me a decade before hearing it in a documentary before I even noticed. Friggin' brilliant that he could put that there without any of us realizing.

@KayKo Sorry, but that's just what i think. Don't get me wrong, he is a great actor, but i never imagine him playing the Emperor. If you liked the casting, that's okay. I just don't think the new voice fit him. That's all. Also, i liked the reference there.

Funny that's the case, because Tim Curry and Ian McDiarmid used to be roommates in Glasgow a long time ago when, as Ian put it, they were much younger actors, "pre-Rocky Horror days." I thought that was one of the best/funniest things I'd ever heard in my life. LOL

@@AishaVonFossen Really? Mind blown! Either way, i still thought Curry was mis casted. That's just my opinion.

@@tylerfish2701 I liked the show especially the parts with the clones

PKMN Trainer Mark "Preach!"

*Mid-fight* "Oh, my back just gave out!"

Oh cool !

+Nathan Cleveland It's also edible.

+Nathan Cleveland I don't think Yoda wants to appear weak. He truly is old and tired when walking. But being a powerful Force user gives him ability to channel Force through his body to give him incredible speed and strength for a limtied time. He probably wouldn't be able to be like that all the time but when the need for action arises he can push himself to fast and deadly. At least that's how I see it:)

I always thought he did it to trick his enemies, but that makes sense too.

+Khanemis that is why he burns out so quickly?

😂😂😂

Me too

I KNOW RIGHT!?

Well in my point of view the PREQUELS ARE EVIL!! XD

No there just evil lol

Wonder what GOOD things Doug considers in the Star Wars Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels TV shows, or if he considers them to have any good things at all. I'm sure he'd make a swift argument about the whole rant between fans about what sucks in the Star Wars EU and what should or shouldn't be canon, ALL the Die-Hard fan complains

D. J. It's called hyperbole. If I say "the prequels are the worst thing since the holocaust" I'm not being literal. Also no, they do not compare in quality. Bland characters and cinematography, horrible writing and a major case of uncanny valley isn't excused by some over the top action.

Nobody really cares who you consider to be a real Star Wars fan, I for example don't think you are a real Star Wars fan

D. J.

It helps that a lot of people are likely applying hindsight to this trilogy after seeing the trainwreck that was the sequel trilogy. Nothing like a greater of two evils to make one bad product seem good in comparison!

The story of The Prequels is way more interesting than The OT's. The fall of a hero and the ascension of an Empire is better than the classic and generic hero's journey. In my humble opinion. Now the way it was delivered was the problem and that's why The OT's story is considerate better by the popular opinion.

+General Necromage well the anti cheese prequel edits that are on KZfaq are as close to that as were gonna get

+Sam Salem Most the the eu shit that went back that far was awesome a movie set in the old republic era would be great

I think the basic plot had some great potential but couldn't have been executed worse. I really do think if they actually had some good writing this basic storyline (a political figure creating an empire through pulling the strings in background) could have been better than the OT.

+Sam Salem It would be cool to see a old Republic movie with Satele Shan and Darth Malgus

Agreed. When given good material to work with Hayden is actually quite good. It is a shame he was not allowed to be as good as he can be in the prequels. Likewise miss Portman is a great actress, but what she had to work with in the prequels was not so good. Even Jake Lloyd is better than he gets credit for. The prequels were not as good as the original trilogy but it was not the actors fault.

This happens a lot tbh, Ben Affleck in Daredevil, George Clooney in Batman and Robin, Mark Walberg in The Happening, I could go on forever with this tbh xD

Yeah. Even Plinkett can agree on that one, which really surprised after watching Plinkett's reviews when he came out and said "Hayden's a good kid and ya shouldn't blame him". But by Jove he had a point.

Can show this attitude to Jake Lloyd?

Those two are my favorite as well. ☺💜

Same

Revenge of the Sith is definitely my favorite Star Wars movie just behind the og three.

Still my fav entry next to 7 and 9

My favorites also. Perfect ends to the trilogies.

Demon Rantz Me too.

why? Because he looked evil and had a double bladed lightsaber? I guess that makes up for him being a character with no character development.

Theo Local Loner And his development in the clone wars made him just the more cooler.

Kaagh178 YES! YOU GET IT!

Aayla Secura was mine. I honestly wouldn't mind a movie just about her adventures, maybe team her up with Shaak Ti and Luminara.

I hope Disney makes some sort of live action Clone Wars anthology film that gives Hayden one more chance to show us his real talent as Anakin

That would be awesome, but Disney doesn't want to go anywhere near the prequels.

They're understandably taking a break from them now, but I think they'll eventually tackle the era again.

Yep. I know it's the director at fault when I don't want to watch a scene with Natalie Portman in it.

Same here, same here. I was so glad when he made that point. These prequels made so many otherwise great actors look like shit.

There are no bad lines. If you've seen his work outside the Prequels, it's the same thing.

CeleryHunter143 But the sand is coarse and irritating.

Then again, anything's a better love story then twilight. EDIT: Oh, and to clarify, I enjoy the prequals so I'm not here to do that.

you fool twilight IS the sand!

No, not anything. 50 shades is far worse.

(Insert Final Fantasy X Tidus laugh here)

Mr Hole yep I agree

@@wmb1628 ok

Yeah... if only they managed to put that kind of complexity into the rest of the romance scenes.

Except for the part where Leia "remembers" her mother.

“The ability to speak does not make you intelligent.” Who’s the person her surname is from? Bail Organa. Who’s the woman next to him during the finale, showing where the Skywalkers went? His wife. Ergo, the “mother” Leia remembers isn’t her birth mother, but her adoptive mother. You have working eyes, you have Google.... but you don’t use them.

I know, right? It felt very Godfather-esque. It's such a big moment that later STARWARS productions still call back to it.

Really??!!

Oh sweet irony......

Only Season 6, which was unfinished. Only 13 episodes were completed and released.

+ajzeg01 Because Disney told them to pull the plug on that series and to make another shitty sequel series that matched disney's "standards". Disney really did ruin Star Wars. I told you it would come to this. I was right. Disney is taking over!!!

+ajzeg01 There were episodes of season 6 which had Ian Abercrombie (the rush clovis episodes) but Tim Curry dubbed a few lines in early season 5 (opening episode and the final line of "The Lawless") and did the finale (the Ahsoka trial), as well as season 6

Won't happen with the Disney stuff. The difference with the prequels is kid's who loved the prequels like me grew up and now are talking about the movie's. The prequels were deffently much much more fun to watch then the originals. The light saber battles ther are actual jedis and a shit load of them. A lot of people love the characters like mace and so on. The only thing that is really bad is the dialogue for the love story.

almir delic that same way of thinking is going to happen for the sequel trilogy. The people currently growing up on the sequel trilogy will defend it. I grew up on the prequel trilogy which is why I adore it despite the wrap it gets. The same will happen with the sequel trilogy and the fans who grew up on it regardless of how ass you and I may think it is.

@@thatoneshortboi Who is growing up with the sequel trilogy? I didn't see any kids when I saw them.

@@thatoneshortboi see that's what won't happen kids don't watch it 🤷‍♂️ my nice and nephew are the age of what I was watching the prequels they and ther friends don't mention star wars one's. So no they won't kids are not fascinated by it. I would like to agree with you about this but simply can't ther is to much wrong with thise movie's. The prequels had some major faults but it kept true to the characters

Benny Boi Just cause you don’t see any don’t mean there aren’t any. Just cause I don’t see anyone being murdered doesn’t mean murder doesn’t happen at all.

except for the episode with Jar Jar Binks as an important or main character. They had to have one of those once a season.

two episodes actually

Best part are the clone centred episodes, I felt emotional when Waxer died, especially his manner of death

Lachlan Robertson Oh and Fives finding out about Order 66.

Like making Grievous a moron?

I definitely agree!

Exactly! The execution was the only thing holding them back. To this day I wish Lucas took Spielberg's offer to direct The Phantom Menace; I'm sure it would've turned out better in execution. If you're interested in watching great video essays on why the prequels were actually good films, check out CinemaWins' videos. Here's TPM: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h9agfLF8lZqWfmw.html

It's why I've always gone with the theory that he caused Anakin to be born

fyreoblar Actually, in the 2017 Darth Vader comic, it was confirmed that Palpatine was the one who created Anakin.

Angry Clone Face was it ever confirmed that Padme dies because Sidious siphoned her life force to give to Anakin while he is undergoing his surgery? I read a theory about that which if it was true it makes her death so much more tragic and credible

PantherMistress88 I’m not sure. You may have to do some digging on Wookeepedia to find out.

That isn't stated in the films, so when reviewing the scene in its original context, it isn't known that Palpatine is telling a story about himself.

i love all of them

Tbh jar jar was really cringy and how anakin's lines were also cringy so people are blaming the actors instead of the writers none the less I love them

Me too. Peace ✌🏻

Me to :)

I only liked part lll

That's like saying herpes is better than gonorrhoea. I mean, yes, it is, but...

@@sambeckett2428 Well, here's why I think that. As bad as Episode III gets with the terrible love dialogue and Hayden Christensen's performance being wooden once again, it at least had a focused plot. The Last Jedi had its moments, some of them my favorite in the franchise, but it was kind of a mess. And, I felt that it could have been shorter than 2 and a half hours. Yes, Revenge of the Sith was just over 10 minutes shorter, but there was a lot of stuff that I really liked. Ewan McGregor's performance, Ian Mcdiarmid as Palpatine, and I'll even give credit to Hayden Christensen. Like Doug Walker said, when he's allowed to just show his facial emotions, he looks damn intimidating. So, Episode III isn't perfect, but I don't mind popping it in once in a while. Last Jedi I'll still watch, but not that often.

I agree. I can't stand The Last Jedi. Revenge of the Sith on the other hand, I can watch from start to finish with no regrets.

Not an exactly high bar to cross there

Not only the last jedi. The entire sequel trilogy

Episode 3 was always my favorite, but watching the clone wars made it so much more impactful.

jrpludacrous agree agree agree

Episode 3 was always my favorite - and my favorite Star Wars Movie overall after Empire Strikes Back

2008 or 2003 My favorite is the 2003 Star Wars clone wars show

another boring channel so agreed! Way better!

also he doesnt use his powers to blow up hearts because the villains like count duko, are strong enough to give yoda such a hard time at it that its not worth the time.

plus he doesn't need to talk, most of the time if not all the time hes doing more force jumps then he does walk

But that would be deceit, which is part of the dark side.

Yoda uses the force to empower him briefly during battle, his actual body is frail and he needs the cane.

I thought it might be to preserve energy

I thought about it for a while & you're probably right (Spoilers) I think Palpatine should've stopped using lightning right before he died, & engaged in a duel with Rey with two red lightsabers (like he did in The Clone Wars) while a remaster of Duel of Fates plays

Nah, it's not even close. But Revenge of the sith is better.

@@sdog1234 no, anything in the prequels is better than Disney Wars...even Jar Jar.

@@Trazyn_the_Infinite_40K Both critics and fans disagree with you. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

@@sdog1234 critics are usually wrong, and the fans have their ot goggles on, meaning that nothing will never amount to good in their eyes. But the sequels have absolutely ZERO good things in it.
