Nblp 7001 I'd like to think that look from Vader is retconned to him holding a grudge against Tarkin for prosecuting Ahsoka. It's not until 5 years later that Tarkin and Vader become allies since they started over at square one at the end of the Clone Wars.
You could tell Vader is unhappy with his new life. He lost everything he loved and I think it hits him when he is standing next to the Emperor and crosses his arms. He no longer has his beloved wife because he killed her when the dark side took over. He no longer has his full body and life force because he lost it during the fight with Obi-Wan when the dark side took over. The dark side ruined his life and he realizes that the only thing he has left is the very thing that took everything from him: the dark side. (@1:30-1:45)
Yes! John Williams score was the VERY BEST in episode 3...... Especially when padme and anakin are feeling each other's emotions through the city skyline! Also, in episode 2, when Darth Sidious meets up w/count dooku at the end as well as the IMPERIAL STORMTROOPER MARCH...... Breathtaking!!!!!
Darth Vestius, Luke didnt have a girlfriend, that would start talking about beaches and sand. Also, "as much" you mean one line for the entire trilogy?
Fuck the originals, the prequels are superior. Think which world you would really want to live in, oppressed by a fucking empire, or a liberating Republic. Besides the clones, vehicles, weapons, Jedi, politics and pretty much everything about the Republic era shits on the crappy empire era.
My favorite line in this movie...."you're gonna kill him, aren't you?" At that moment it's kind of like a huge slap in the face to how dismal things have gotten and how badly their relationship took a turn for the unbelievable worse. Especially considering the last convo obi-wan and anakin had.
+angelfire2510 there's an alternate mustafar scene that never got to be shot where padme was concealing a knife and was going to TRY and kill anakin, it's really tense and would've have for better with the scene, there's a CZcams video out there where the concept artist/writer goes on to describe this unseen scene, it's worth the watch
I've loved this movie since 2005, to me the whole of it fantastic. Like where Anakin's talking with Yoda and the lighting magnifique just one small part to the whole.
I haven't seen ROTS for a while but this ending is the same as I remember, what's different about this "uncut" ending to the one I remember? Genuine question.
Oleg P "Were there doubts? Any private, traitorous thoughts? Perhaps. But no one said a word. Not on the flight to Coruscant, not when we boarded the dropship, and not as we marched up the steps of the Jedi Temple."
Agree 02:49 Luke and the Lullaby song, That moment is soooo powerful, full of hope! and the background music kicking in with the sunset... Perfect. That baby will kick the shit out of the dark side, just you wait bitches!
Marcel Patterson disagree, I sooooo disagree, back in the day I loved all 5 star wars equally but when ep3 came out it left me in awe!!! astounding action, perfect plot, perfect villains, the soundtrack in this one will never ever ever ever ever ever be beaten, it's just too perfect, best ending in ep3 then any other , also darker then any other episode, it has the most colorfull and creative planets, the lightsaber battle in the end is superior to any lightsaber battle ever made, without this episode I probably wouldn't care for star wars at all
The original scripts for Padme were much better. She was proactive and had a lot more to do in the films, and in the end she actually attempted to kill Vader with a Knife, which leads to the line "YOU TURNED HER AGAINST ME!"
I got teary eyed knowing the story of Anakin Skywalker had come full circle. The story was over. And at the time it seemed as if ROTS was the final Star Wars movie to be made.
Hate on me all you want but I will always love the prequels more- I grew up with them and knew Darth Vadar was Luke's father long before I even knew who Luke was. I personally preferred the idea of an intergalactic tragedy on both romantic and societal levels over a happy go lucky adventure around the galaxy to save the princess and foil the one dimensional bad guy. But that's just me.
Jeremy Jenner that's all fine, like you said you grew up with the prequels while we grew up with the original so there is that bias I don't think we all want to admit.
I grew up on the originals and I gotta say I love the prequels more than the originals. The Light Saber battles by themselves make them better than episode 4, 5, & 6.
He was given to Anakins half or step brother and wife, so he was really still with family. I think that's how they wanted to do it. Kinda cool if you think about it. If Leia went there instead, there would have been a good chance she would have ended up a slave, or like Anakins mother did. They figured her best chance was with who she was given to. Makes sense really
BHaDizzle George Lucas directed episode 4 and 6, notice how the best movie of the original trilogy had the least amount of George Lucas. Also episode 6 was very average, not as good as a new hope
I'm sorry, but I think GL directing E7 would have been a disaster. His ideas are brilliant, obviously, as without GL there would be no Star Wars, but his actor choices for THE key new roles have been terrible. Jake Lloyd and Hayden Christianson were limited actors and the script dialogue was weak or even badly comical.
You added the Yoda Arriving to Degobah deleted scene to the actual ending. Which I always thought it shouldn't have been deleted in the first place. Good job putting this together!!! The circle is now complete!!
When Anakin (now Vader) walks across the SD and takes his place at the side of the emperor, the feels really get to me.Plus the sad and powerful score by JW playing. It is a tragedy that Anakin ended up as Vader.
Question: Does the "uncut" part go toward Master Yoda arriving on Daghoba? If so, that's good considering I don't think it was in the original home release DVD
Sabrina VanKirk It's because the Jedi were his students and his responsibility, when they were all killed he felt like he failed them, he even said that himself and that he's putting himself in exile, it had to suck for him being on that planet by himself for 20 some years thinking about the fact that almost everyone he once knew is dead
At the last scene with Vader,Sidious, and Tarkin they should had Sidious talk to a hologram of Bush saying "you've done well My Lord" "everything went according to plan"
You know, I used to think Return of the Jedi was weak sauce (except for the final duel between Luke and Vader), then I saw the Prequel trilogy, and realized how good it was comparatively. I used to think the PT was terrible, then I saw the Ep 7 from Disney™, and realized how good it was comparatively. Its amazing how a worse installment, somehow make the previous installment better. How bad will the future Ep's be to make me think Ep 7 is decent?
Rotwang72 I really hated the fact that FA had the poor writing of that mary su Rey. However I still liked the charecters etc. I think ep7 is going to be one of the best in the series. I hope they tone back reys skill and that her mary su moment was just her channeling the force or some kind of crazy force ability she could use in certain moments or maybe someone else helping her through the force?
I think the reason you liked the characters was because they were rehashes previous characters. FA invalidated the Original trilogy in that everyone of the main characters was right back to where they started before the trilogy, Leia is a freedom fighter, Han is a smuggler indebted to smugglers, the Jedi are destroyed and their master is in hiding, there is an uber Jedi to be in hiding on Tatooine with a bearded sympathizer watching over, and the enemy has built a large death orb with a serious defensive flaw. Ep 7 will go down and a reset so Disney could reopen the series. Not needed at all, not sure why I am surprised rather than having not expected it.
I really believe in EP.8 being a good movie not just a plot and character re-hash. It looks like a very serious movie with a somber tone. I really hope im not just believeing in the movie because I want it to be good.
I am a little bit hopeful as well. Ep 8 "looks" like they are creating something original for this story line. But movie trailers have deceived me before. That and that Ep7, was in my opinion, dreadful...makes me cautiously optimistic. But..."I gotta bad feeling about this". ha. Rogue One wasn't terrible but not exactly amazing either. Lets hope for the best.
The Streaming Advisor I doubt they'd done remakes but read the comics if you can, they really fix a lot of the problems even I try to pretend don't exist in the prequels
I would absolutely hate that, Revenge of the Sith was a masterpiece. I don't care if you like the prequels or not, they have a place in my heart and I'd hate to see them redone
Most of the spacecraft in Star Wars utilize auditory feedback in addition to visual displays. The sounds come from speakers inside the observing ships. This way the pilot of a vessel can use his / her/ its hearing to take in additional environmental data. A pilot can "hear" a ship coming up behind them or whizzing past, but only if the sensors can detect and display them. That's what they say in the books, anyway.
The interview was with Terry O'Quinn. Actually, I am not sure of that name. It was the editor of Starlog Magazine and it was an issue that was either late seventies or early eighties. I'm sure a regular combing of eBay may secure an issue, if your interested.
No thanks. Delete the birth scene. Obi wan didn't know about another sky walker. We aren't supposed to know. Obi Wan would have mercy killed his old friend if he watched him burn. My take is this... no birth scene. We do not know what happens to Padme. After Anakin and Obi Wan talk for the final time anakin passes out from pain and obi Wan mistakes him for dead. The emperor finds him brings him back to be rebuilt. The table tilts up and we hear him breathe for the first time. END SCENE CUT TO CREDITS. What we have instead is the idiots guide to Star Wars that makes ANH ESB and RoTJ just creepy because we know they're brother and sister.
Connor Dukenson like I said. The idiots guide if you watch Episodes in order 1-6, the last three movies (4,5,6) is you watching the cast try to figure out what we already know. It ruins the last three movies.
Lee Doron ok but if that's truly the case why even make the first three? Money of course, but usually I count 1,2,3,4,5,6. And trying to introduce someone new to these movies is confusing as heck going 4,5,6,1,2,3
Watching her having thing Anakin made for her in her hands was sad, especially seeing him in the suit afterwards. A young boy with so much love, only to be manipulated into darkness and pain.
DuhAverageJoe they made it on purpose so people as in the inhabitants of Naboo would believe that she died while being pregnant and that she didn't give birth to Luke & Leia
ItsBritney Yup. All that is left is the possible scandal that the queen was "unmarried" but pregnant; no one (especially Vader) must know she actually gave birth.
Almost 20 damn years living in the harsh outbacks on a desert planet with TWO suns looming overhead and people STILL wonder about the extreme aging of Beru, Owen, and Obi (even more years for Luke's aunt and uncle).
@TrueLife90 To establish, to the slower Star Wars viewers, that Yoda did indeed fly to Dagobah in a spaceship. As opposed to magically teleporting there, or flying there like Superman, or being kicked out of an airlock from Bail Organa's ship and parachuting to a landing using a cute little umbrella. It also provided another opportunity to show yet another space ship landing, since we clearly don't get enough of those scenes in the Prequels.
5, 4, 3, Rogue One, 7, 6, 2, 1....this is a great scene in ROTS because its without dialogue, it flows, great score from the Master John Williams...visually great and the last shot of the twin suns of setting...great foreshadowing ....
2:56-the credits is when i started to cry because this was my most favoirte scene from the whole saga and if you take a look at Owen Beru and Luke its pretty much Lucas's say of saying thank you for watching the saga and please go home and watch episode IV and watch when luke looks toward the sunset
I remember seeing this movie the first day it came out when i was in 6th grade. I was just getting into Star Wars and I had no idea what was going on. Now i wish I saw this in the movies with all the knowlegde i gained from then until now.
About the same. The Yoda scene is removed though. That few seconds really explains how Yoda got to Degobah. In our version all he says at the end is "Failed I Have. Into Exile I must go." That really says alot!
@Scarecrow545 The sequence with Yoda landing of Dagobah was not in the theatrical, DVD, or Blu-Ray release. Lucas wanted to concentrate the endingf around the Skywalker family.
His mother died. Thats a HUGE reason to cry. especially in Anakins case, for his first 10 years all he had was his mother. She kept him during slavery and everything.
I'm glad that yoda was been cut away from the ending. There's no need to know what happened with Yoda, we know where he is from episode 5, and as a matter of fact, it surely destroys the sadness between padme and anakin(Darth vader) To have a green little monkey between those two this trilogy ( ep: 1, 2 and 3) is all about would make the ending wierd. but after all, you have done a great job putting them together :)
I hope they include the Yoda scene, its possibly my favourite scenes that never were out of the movies, my absolute favourite scene of what was in... Vader on the bridge overlooking the Death Star :)
@MASSEFFECTfan101 MBaxtonM allready answered, and Wookiepedia says: "it was built after the destruction of the first Death Star" and "Unlike the Empire's first Death Star, which, as a result of supply and design problems, took twenty-one years to be considered an operational battlestation, this much larger Death Star took far less time, approximately two to four years, to construct."
Yoda's kinda fascinating in that, if you watch his ep5 scenes very carefully, you can see how his character developed. He begins as a "stock" character- scratchy voiced little eccentric whose role is to fight with R2D2 "Mine!Mine!" while bashing him with a stick (hardly jedi master stuff, to get into an ego battle with a lowly droid) then he becomes a bit of a "wise uncle"- "...what he was doin'.Where he was goin' " (complete with accent) Then the music changes...and we realise he's s/t deeper..
I loved it that Ewan's final gesture playing Obi Wan is to twirl his beard like Sir Alec did in the originals- actually, I find this wordless ending more emotionally effective than the rest of the prequels put together- great stuff.
yes, Luke is honoring his father with a funeral pyre. He's not just burning the body, it's a symbol of respect for the fallen. They do the same for Qui-Gon in episode I. The Hindu, Sikh, and Viking cultures are historically noted for holding pyres.
"why did yoda go to dagobah?" Dagobah was one of the 5 I believe it was, planets removed from the Jedi Archive of planets in the galaxy. He knew he would be safe there from the Emperor's sensing until the time was needed to train Anakin and Padme's children.
@Timelord6661 i think what Vader meant in ANH is that he was a learner of the Sith back then, which is y he couldn't defeat Obi-wan. Now, he's a master or Lord of the Sith, which makes him highly likely to be able to defeat his old master.
Love the way Vader looks at Tarkin and says, "fuck off" without having to say a word.
Nblp 7001 I'd like to think that look from Vader is retconned to him holding a grudge against Tarkin for prosecuting Ahsoka. It's not until 5 years later that Tarkin and Vader become allies since they started over at square one at the end of the Clone Wars.
Hell, I'd be pretty scared if I saw him stare at me without a word, I'd just be like "Umm....yeah, mkay later."
I was thinking the same!
0:15 The key to all of this...
+Jay Martinezz what?
+zzginigzz He is a Sith Lord.
darth darth binks your havin a fakin laff
+Jay Martinezz and he didn't say a word... Jar Jar, we KNOW you're guilty
Only if Jar Jar didn't give emergency powers to Palpatine....
You could tell Vader is unhappy with his new life. He lost everything he loved and I think it hits him when he is standing next to the Emperor and crosses his arms. He no longer has his beloved wife because he killed her when the dark side took over. He no longer has his full body and life force because he lost it during the fight with Obi-Wan when the dark side took over. The dark side ruined his life and he realizes that the only thing he has left is the very thing that took everything from him: the dark side. (@1:30-1:45)
How good is John Williams' work here. JUST WOW
Yes! John Williams score was the VERY BEST in episode 3...... Especially when padme and anakin are feeling each other's emotions through the city skyline! Also, in episode 2, when Darth Sidious meets up w/count dooku at the end as well as the IMPERIAL STORMTROOPER MARCH...... Breathtaking!!!!!
I will forever love how the imperial march encroaches on the theme at 1:27 and 1:39.
Jordan Barkley and
So Leia leads a life of luxury and palace life. Luke lives in relative povery in the backwoods of Tatooine
drkinferno72 like his father before him... the story is so crual sometimes
Yeah but he gets to become a Jedi and rebuild the order so it works out
and I bet he hates sand too....just doesn't whine about it as much as his Father did....
Darth Vestius, Luke didnt have a girlfriend, that would start talking about beaches and sand.
Also, "as much" you mean one line for the entire trilogy?
He's a Wizard after all, and the only way to keep him away from the Dark Lord is to put him with his family.
When you feel the atmosphere of the Original Trilogy in 1:12 onwards.
The best part of the prequels is the part where the original trilogy happens
XD
Yeah all the themes from the originals were played at those locations with the characters.
Fuck the originals, the prequels are superior. Think which world you would really want to live in, oppressed by a fucking empire, or a liberating Republic. Besides the clones, vehicles, weapons, Jedi, politics and pretty much everything about the Republic era shits on the crappy empire era.
Just Chillin' t
My favorite line in this movie...."you're gonna kill him, aren't you?" At that moment it's kind of like a huge slap in the face to how dismal things have gotten and how badly their relationship took a turn for the unbelievable worse. Especially considering the last convo obi-wan and anakin had.
She died loving him...
Yeah and Disney better not change the fact that she loved him or anything related to that either.
if were talking about padme you guys hear the story of her trying to kill anakin
Lord Ewok when and why did Padme try to kill Anakin? Can you please explain that to me?
+angelfire2510 there's an alternate mustafar scene that never got to be shot where padme was concealing a knife and was going to TRY and kill anakin, it's really tense and would've have for better with the scene, there's a CZcams video out there where the concept artist/writer goes on to describe this unseen scene, it's worth the watch
Dane Tattersall where can I find this scene? Why would she want to kill the father of Luke and Leiah?
Say what you want about RotS, but it's ending was fantastic
TylerPierson "nooooooooooo"
Was fucking lame
I've loved this movie since 2005, to me the whole of it fantastic. Like where Anakin's talking with Yoda and the lighting magnifique just one small part to the whole.
I haven't seen ROTS for a while but this ending is the same as I remember, what's different about this "uncut" ending to the one I remember? Genuine question.
chris j the scene where Yoda lands on dagobah was cut from the final film
It's only good because there's no awful dialogue to ruin it, and it connects with powerful themes created by the original trilogy.
"What I remember about the rise of the empire is....how quiet it was"
Oleg P "Were there doubts? Any private, traitorous thoughts? Perhaps. But no one said a word. Not on the flight to Coruscant, not when we boarded the dropship, and not as we marched up the steps of the Jedi Temple."
Nick Van Riper not a word.
is this from the star wars battlefront 2 ? 2005
GOOSEBUMPS!! when obi-wan gives Luke
YAS!
Adams Torres that was so sad and happy😭
And Owen and Beru standing there watching the 2 suns set is very similar to Luke from that scene in A New Hope.
Agree 02:49 Luke and the Lullaby song, That moment is soooo powerful, full of hope! and the background music kicking in with the sunset... Perfect. That baby will kick the shit out of the dark side, just you wait bitches!
take the child Vader will never purposefully come to a world with sand.
So beautiful and sad, but full of hope too. John Williams score never better than in ROTS, think he put his heart and soul into that score..
Jojo 1718 the score is better than the mooie.
Also in epi 1
It probably is the best, tied with Empire in my opinion :) love it, so many new themes mixed with old ones
The score is absolutely brilliant but I could do without the General Grievous bit
He probably thought it would be the last Star Wars ever and wanted it to have the best sound track.
...the prequels weren't THAT bad. the original trilogy was just too good.
Marcel Patterson this is my favorite out of all of them
Marcel Patterson disagree, I sooooo disagree, back in the day I loved all 5 star wars equally but when ep3 came out it left me in awe!!! astounding action, perfect plot, perfect villains, the soundtrack in this one will never ever ever ever ever ever be beaten, it's just too perfect, best ending in ep3 then any other , also darker then any other episode, it has the most colorfull and creative planets, the lightsaber battle in the end is superior to any lightsaber battle ever made, without this episode I probably wouldn't care for star wars at all
*@ Marcel Patterson*
Yep. You have a point.
And I feel the complete opposite way.
Marcel Patterson I like the episodes 1-3 better then the force awakens but I still thought that one was pretty good. I can't wait to see the last jedi
The original scripts for Padme were much better. She was proactive and had a lot more to do in the films, and in the end she actually attempted to kill Vader with a Knife, which leads to the line "YOU TURNED HER AGAINST ME!"
Death Jar jar is happy his plan work all long
Josh Kusiak I hope Darth jar jar shows up in the Last Jedi and kills everybody 😂
3:10 Owen: What the hell did you buy this time????????!!!!!!!!!!
Spacegoat92 XD
Spacegoat92 oh for fucks sake maru
Lmao
I'd like to think that Krennic and Galen erso are on site on the Death Star. :)
Alexis De leon Wait I thought Jyn was young during this event.
Frag Wall She was like 2.
Jyn was 3 to 5 years old.
Krennic was on a nearby ship.
Krennic was on a different ship and Galen was somewhere else entirely, he hadn't started his work with Kyber crystals yet.
yes and also those characters weren't thought up yet lol but ya
love this movie it's sad
Darth Power Depressing as hell indeed
i got goosebumps when it went to the credits
I got teary eyed knowing the story of Anakin Skywalker had come full circle. The story was over. And at the time it seemed as if ROTS was the final Star Wars movie to be made.
That Yoda scene made sense to add but I'm assuming they didn't because maybe of the amount of time the movie used up to that point?
Brandon Ryce Yeah but it was like 35 seconds.
So, just curious, how was it decided that Leia get the luxurious comfort and Luke get the hateful sand? Flip of a coin?
watch the movie again
Leia's adoptive father said in ROTS that he and his wife wanted a girl, so Leia ended up a princess.
In the OT they didn't originally plan for Luke and Leia to be twins.
1bigbeatlesfan one of the few times a girl get privileged for being a girl
MrHopeless Good question lol
Hate on me all you want but I will always love the prequels more- I grew up with them and knew Darth Vadar was Luke's father long before I even knew who Luke was. I personally preferred the idea of an intergalactic tragedy on both romantic and societal levels over a happy go lucky adventure around the galaxy to save the princess and foil the one dimensional bad guy. But that's just me.
Jeremy Jenner meh it's cool.
Jeremy Jenner that's all fine, like you said you grew up with the prequels while we grew up with the original so there is that bias I don't think we all want to admit.
Jeremy Jenner that's fine!
I grew up on the originals and I gotta say I love the prequels more than the originals. The Light Saber battles by themselves make them better than episode 4, 5, & 6.
The prequels got more characters, planets, aliens, ships, and thats what I like
Luke got so screwed. His sister got to be a princess and he was sent to a desert.
He was given to Anakins half or step brother and wife, so he was really still with family. I think that's how they wanted to do it. Kinda cool if you think about it. If Leia went there instead, there would have been a good chance she would have ended up a slave, or like Anakins mother did. They figured her best chance was with who she was given to. Makes sense really
Wish George Lucas wouldn't have sold Star Wars, imagine his episode 7? Would have been epic. Not a complete copy of "Star Wars 1977"
BHaDizzle makes me sad
even if he didnt he didnt plan to make make more star wars movies
frank grimes bingo
BHaDizzle
George Lucas directed episode 4 and 6, notice how the best movie of the original trilogy had the least amount of George Lucas. Also episode 6 was very average, not as good as a new hope

If and when The Obi-Wan Movie is made....bring back Joel Edgerton to play Uncle Owen Lars !
luie78lp by the way, Lord Vader said it is now ok to laugh at the little orphan Annie joke.
Incredible! Without a single word spoken...just amazing
You added the Yoda Arriving to Degobah deleted scene to the actual ending. Which I always thought it shouldn't have been deleted in the first place. Good job putting this together!!! The circle is now complete!!
I love every Star Wars movie!
So I thought until I saw Last Jedi
Wonder what Yoda did with that ship, also at 3:11 Those V-wings (Soon to be TIEs) sound kind of like tri-fighters.
Imperial Chibi Guard he took his ship apart so he would stay in exile
Imperial Chibi Guard He used the ship to build his hut.
the ship is his hut...all camouflaged ...sly he is
When Anakin (now Vader) walks across the SD and takes his place at the side of the emperor, the feels really get to me.Plus the sad and powerful score by JW playing. It is a tragedy that Anakin ended up as Vader.
That Death star scene always gives me chills
Tears. Lots and lots of tears.
You know I just realized how Obi aging badly has some people on their nerves, but look at Lars and Beru, they aged like shi7
Moisture farming accelerates aging, more o on a desert planet.... :D
Melvin Chong and living in hiding as a jedi from the empire ages you terribly too
1:34 "Now this is Pod Racing!"-Darry Vader
Can we just acknowledge the John Williams mastery at blending the Darth Vader theme with Padme's theme at 1:22?!?! Such haunting beauty!!!
Question: Does the "uncut" part go toward Master Yoda arriving on Daghoba? If so, that's good considering I don't think it was in the original home release DVD
Always remember the mighty empire were beaten by teddy bears with pointed sticks
Ayeeeeahhhh!!
Again, the editing in these films was just a masterclass.
the music during this sequence is just wonderful! the different themes for each character...
The last good Star Wars movie. Well it was a good run.
"So this is how Star Wars dies...with thunderous applause"
i dont understand why Yoda just gave up so easily. He could have trained so many more people meanwhile.
Sabrina VanKirk It's because the Jedi were his students and his responsibility, when they were all killed he felt like he failed them, he even said that himself and that he's putting himself in exile, it had to suck for him being on that planet by himself for 20 some years thinking about the fact that almost everyone he once knew is dead
Such an underrated movie IMO. Absolutely amazing story arc
1:20 - the most touching music in this movie. Mixing death march with that song is perfect.
At the last scene with Vader,Sidious, and Tarkin they should had Sidious talk to a hologram of Bush saying "you've done well My Lord" "everything went according to plan"
You know, I used to think Return of the Jedi was weak sauce (except for the final duel between Luke and Vader), then I saw the Prequel trilogy, and realized how good it was comparatively. I used to think the PT was terrible, then I saw the Ep 7 from Disney™, and realized how good it was comparatively. Its amazing how a worse installment, somehow make the previous installment better. How bad will the future Ep's be to make me think Ep 7 is decent?
Rotwang72 I really hated the fact that FA had the poor writing of that mary su Rey. However I still liked the charecters etc. I think ep7 is going to be one of the best in the series. I hope they tone back reys skill and that her mary su moment was just her channeling the force or some kind of crazy force ability she could use in certain moments or maybe someone else helping her through the force?
I think the reason you liked the characters was because they were rehashes previous characters. FA invalidated the Original trilogy in that everyone of the main characters was right back to where they started before the trilogy, Leia is a freedom fighter, Han is a smuggler indebted to smugglers, the Jedi are destroyed and their master is in hiding, there is an uber Jedi to be in hiding on Tatooine with a bearded sympathizer watching over, and the enemy has built a large death orb with a serious defensive flaw. Ep 7 will go down and a reset so Disney could reopen the series. Not needed at all, not sure why I am surprised rather than having not expected it.
I really believe in EP.8 being a good movie not just a plot and character re-hash. It looks like a very serious movie with a somber tone. I really hope im not just believeing in the movie because I want it to be good.
I am a little bit hopeful as well. Ep 8 "looks" like they are creating something original for this story line. But movie trailers have deceived me before. That and that Ep7, was in my opinion, dreadful...makes me cautiously optimistic. But..."I gotta bad feeling about this". ha. Rogue One wasn't terrible but not exactly amazing either. Lets hope for the best.
Eh, I liked Rogue One.
Never realized how beautiful Tatooine is, really makes you think how diverse the universe really is
I love how this and the other endings in Star Wars have the force theme playing.
Maybe Disney will be able to build all the way back to the prequels and build the back story the way it should be done. R1 was a great start.
The Streaming Advisor I doubt they'd done remakes but read the comics if you can, they really fix a lot of the problems even I try to pretend don't exist in the prequels
You are not a Star Wars fan... that said.. now back to your hole.
They're fine just the way they are.
I would absolutely hate that, Revenge of the Sith was a masterpiece. I don't care if you like the prequels or not, they have a place in my heart and I'd hate to see them redone
I couldn't have said it better myself *Clap clap* :D
1:11 - 1:43 should have been the final shot or went after the tatooine scene
Vincent Arceo Totally agree. It is called Revenge of the Sith and it should have ended with the Sith.
You end with the binary sunset
Nah, ending it with hope makes the transition to A New Hope better.
Most of the spacecraft in Star Wars utilize auditory feedback in addition to visual displays. The sounds come from speakers inside the observing ships. This way the pilot of a vessel can use his / her/ its hearing to take in additional environmental data. A pilot can "hear" a ship coming up behind them or whizzing past, but only if the sensors can detect and display them. That's what they say in the books, anyway.
i actually cried, so strong
For some reason at 1:39 the Emperor looks like Data.
Jacob Hoss that's Data's side job.
So is this different than the theatrical version? I didn't notice anything different.
Greg R We have the rocket landing on Planet Degobah (sp?) and Master Yoda facing his exile.
Dagobah*
Close enough though
The interview was with Terry O'Quinn. Actually, I am not sure of that name. It was the editor of Starlog Magazine and it was an issue that was either late seventies or early eighties. I'm sure a regular combing of eBay may secure an issue, if your interested.
Dat binary sunset tho... POW RIGHT TO THE FEELS EVERY TIME
The prequels could have been so much better
They could also have been so much worse
No thanks. Delete the birth scene. Obi wan didn't know about another sky walker. We aren't supposed to know. Obi Wan would have mercy killed his old friend if he watched him burn. My take is this... no birth scene. We do not know what happens to Padme. After Anakin and Obi Wan talk for the final time anakin passes out from pain and obi Wan mistakes him for dead. The emperor finds him brings him back to be rebuilt. The table tilts up and we hear him breathe for the first time. END SCENE CUT TO CREDITS. What we have instead is the idiots guide to Star Wars that makes ANH ESB and RoTJ just creepy because we know they're brother and sister.
If anyone would edit the movie to this I would buy the crap out of it.
Connor Dukenson like I said. The idiots guide if you watch Episodes in order 1-6, the last three movies (4,5,6) is you watching the cast try to figure out what we already know. It ruins the last three movies.
jonsolo32 I firmly believe that the movies should be watched in the order that they were made. True for almost any series.
Lee Doron ok but if that's truly the case why even make the first three? Money of course, but usually I count 1,2,3,4,5,6. And trying to introduce someone new to these movies is confusing as heck going 4,5,6,1,2,3
Watching her having thing Anakin made for her in her hands was sad, especially seeing him in the suit afterwards. A young boy with so much love, only to be manipulated into darkness and pain.
@spidey8vader
Thank you for the excellent comment!
It is great story of one man's life, greatly told. "Every man has its own war"
The only thing about the Ep. III ending that bothers me is that Padme STILL looks pregnant even after having given birth. :/
DuhAverageJoe they might have done it to try and keep luke hidden for longer???
They ACTUALLY make her look pregnant, so Vader will not find out about his kids.
She would still appear pregnant, since it was immediately after giving birth. It would actually be unrealistic for her not to look that way.
DuhAverageJoe they made it on purpose so people as in the inhabitants of Naboo would believe that she died while being pregnant and that she didn't give birth to Luke & Leia
ItsBritney Yup. All that is left is the possible scandal that the queen was "unmarried" but pregnant; no one (especially Vader) must know she actually gave birth.
Almost 20 damn years living in the harsh outbacks on a desert planet with TWO suns looming overhead and people STILL wonder about the extreme aging of Beru, Owen, and Obi (even more years for Luke's aunt and uncle).
I remember watching this for the first time when I was 13 years old and being a bawling mess at the end.
@TrueLife90 To establish, to the slower Star Wars viewers, that Yoda did indeed fly to Dagobah in a spaceship. As opposed to magically teleporting there, or flying there like Superman, or being kicked out of an airlock from Bail Organa's ship and parachuting to a landing using a cute little umbrella. It also provided another opportunity to show yet another space ship landing, since we clearly don't get enough of those scenes in the Prequels.
thx 4 adding this scene ... it`s absolutely magnificent ....
The Prequels were masterpieces
that surpassed the Original Trilogy.
5, 4, 3, Rogue One, 7, 6, 2, 1....this is a great scene in ROTS because its without dialogue, it flows, great score from the Master John Williams...visually great and the last shot of the twin suns of setting...great foreshadowing ....
2:56-the credits is when i started to cry because this was my most favoirte scene from the whole saga and if you take a look at Owen Beru and Luke its pretty much Lucas's say of saying thank you for watching the saga and please go home and watch episode IV and watch when luke looks toward the sunset
I remember seeing this movie the first day it came out when i was in 6th grade.
I was just getting into Star Wars and I had no idea what was going on.
Now i wish I saw this in the movies with all the knowlegde i gained from then until now.
I still get chills at the ending of this movie, it's a perfect ending for not only this film but also to a legacy.
The theme at 1:26 is so epic
i can never get tired of that
@DoubleGlog Yup. Fun Fact: Young Tarkin is played by Wayne Pygram, who also played Scorpius, the major villain of Farscape.
I love how Tarkin just fucks off as soon as Vader shows up.
i cried seeing that even as she died she never let go to the man she once loved. star wars is LEGEND
.. just had a starwars marathon.. makes me wanna se em again!
John Williams, your music always makes me emotional
What the ever lovnin hell is with Uncle Owen. "I'll stand here, majestically staring out at the sunset while Beru brings the boy unto me."
Amazing uncut star wars episode 3
About the same. The Yoda scene is removed though. That few seconds really explains how Yoda got to Degobah. In our version all he says at the end is
"Failed I Have. Into Exile I must go."
That really says alot!
love that yoda's just like "fuck this shit I'm out"
best bit is when u can hear the engines of the TIE fighters with the star destroyers in the background, then u get a feel of the originals
@Scarecrow545 The sequence with Yoda landing of Dagobah was not in the theatrical, DVD, or Blu-Ray release. Lucas wanted to concentrate the endingf around the Skywalker family.
I am always amazed by the score John Williams put together
Just listening to this damn music makes me tear up
His mother died. Thats a HUGE reason to cry. especially in Anakins case, for his first 10 years all he had was his mother. She kept him during slavery and everything.
The ending gave me chills that I haven't experienced since first seeing the ending to rouge one
I'm glad that yoda was been cut away from the ending. There's no need to know what happened with Yoda, we know where he is from episode 5, and as a matter of fact, it surely destroys the sadness between padme and anakin(Darth vader)
To have a green little monkey between those two this trilogy ( ep: 1, 2 and 3) is all about would make the ending wierd.
but after all, you have done a great job putting them together :)
I hope they include the Yoda scene, its possibly my favourite scenes that never were out of the movies, my absolute favourite scene of what was in... Vader on the bridge overlooking the Death Star :)
@MASSEFFECTfan101 MBaxtonM allready answered, and Wookiepedia says: "it was built after the destruction of the first Death Star" and "Unlike the Empire's first Death Star, which, as a result of supply and design problems, took twenty-one years to be considered an operational battlestation, this much larger Death Star took far less time, approximately two to four years, to construct."
Yoda's kinda fascinating in that, if you watch his ep5 scenes very carefully, you can see how his character developed. He begins as a "stock" character- scratchy voiced little eccentric whose role is to fight with R2D2 "Mine!Mine!" while bashing him with a stick (hardly jedi master stuff, to get into an ego battle with a lowly droid) then he becomes a bit of a "wise uncle"- "...what he was doin'.Where he was goin' " (complete with accent) Then the music changes...and we realise he's s/t deeper..
I loved it that Ewan's final gesture playing Obi Wan is to twirl his beard like Sir Alec did in the originals- actually, I find this wordless ending more emotionally effective than the rest of the prequels put together- great stuff.
I love how Tarkin walks off the screen.
yes, Luke is honoring his father with a funeral pyre. He's not just burning the body, it's a symbol of respect for the fallen. They do the same for Qui-Gon in episode I. The Hindu, Sikh, and Viking cultures are historically noted for holding pyres.
I didn't always remember that Tarkin was on this, but that is how i felt then at that time
"why did yoda go to dagobah?"
Dagobah was one of the 5 I believe it was, planets removed from the Jedi Archive of planets in the galaxy. He knew he would be safe there from the Emperor's sensing until the time was needed to train Anakin and Padme's children.
Grandmoff Tarkin 1:29 is such an epic character/villain this movie is great
@Timelord6661 i think what Vader meant in ANH is that he was a learner of the Sith back then, which is y he couldn't defeat Obi-wan. Now, he's a master or Lord of the Sith, which makes him highly likely to be able to defeat his old master.
phenomenal character.i love drath vader because of his comlpexity and the different stages he goes through.
It's funny that the very last seen in the prequels is the only bit that really feels like Star Wars with the music and the backdrop
The scene with Yoda landing on Dagobah. Had this truly been uncut and unedited, the music would have seamlessly blended from Padme to Yoda.
