This movie is the gold standard for making a very unusual world immediately understandable by making everything look similar to things you already know or just having a character say it in two simple sentences.
While there are a few years between both movies, this must have been really noticeable to people who were used to Sci Fi movies (I know it’s technically Fantasy but…. Space) being quite the opposite because of 2001. I have seen that movie many times and I’m still not sure what the hell is going on for most of the movie.
Imagine how amazing this was to a 9 yr old in 1977. It was groundbreaking, revolutionary, and utterly amazing. If you are still impressed nearly 50 years later, you should be.
I don’t want to talk down the cultural importance of starwars but people tend to act, as if there weren’t any high value sci fi productions before it.
2001 came out 9 years before Star Wars and I’d argue it has superior effects and visuals overall. What this did was update the adventure Genres for modern audiences (modern in 1977) and redefining what a Blockbuster is.
I was 12 see this in cinema was wow👌👍😎
Han: "Great shot kid, that was one in a million!"
Luke: "Never tell me the odds!"
When you tell your dad that you just found a girl you'd like to marry.
Dad: "But Son! The probability of successfully navigating a marriage is approximately 4 to 1!" (3/4 marriages DO end in divorce)
You: "NEVER TELL ME THE ODDS!"
Do y’all know what is the leading factor to divorce????
Bet you didn’t know that it was Marriage 🤣 can’t have a divorce without a marriage
A couple of things:
*This was 1977. Even Disney was **_very_** different, back then, and this was ***_no_* Disney movie.
*Princess Leia was such a strong female lead, they had to insert two male leads (Han and Luke), two male sidekicks (Obiwan and Chewbacca), two male villains (Vader and Tarkin) and two "male-adjacent" droids (C-3PO & R2D2) for comedy relief, just to balance her out.
*You're watching the _Special Edition,_ which was "enhanced" by George Lucas for its re-release in the mid-90's, before the Prequel Trilogy came out...There is still a lot of 'controversy' over the SE, which I'm not going to go into here -- although I did go out of my way to find the original theatrical-release DVD's...Also: _Han. Shot. First._
*Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca) was 7'3". Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia) was 5'1". Their heights were so different, the original idea for Chewie to get a medal as well just couldn't be made to work on the set, so they just gave medals to Han and Luke.
*Note that it is estimated that virtually every single, little element of the Star Wars universe - characters, stories, tools, weapons, droids, worlds, etc. - have at least a 1,000 word entry on Wookiepedia.
....And this is just the beginning -- it gets seriously mental from here on.....
Not only did Han shoot first, but he was also the ONLY one who shot. Greedo never got a shot off in the original.
@@s.anthonyulibarri2488 ^ That, too. Thanks for the reminder.
As a twelve year old seeing it in the theater in 1977, I was shocked when Princess Leia first appears and she takes a shot at the storm troopers without trying to hide or wait for them to shoot at her first.
I was like, "Wow, that's ballsy"
This is the re-release of the series. Lucas’ special effects company revolutionized the film industry in 1977, but 20 years later, Lucas re-released the series with some alterations and cgi.
That makes much more sense 😂
@@NiaMakiReacts I’m having fun watching these with you. The story REALLY kicks into gear in the next movie. Lucas created these six movies himself (1977, 1980, 1983, 1999, 2002?, 2005) then sold the company to Disney in 2012.
The original release version is now worth a lot of money.
Yes, though many of the original visual effects are still in the film. Star Wars was not expecting to be a big hit so the budget was very small. The budget for the second film was much bigger so it has had the fewest changes made to it.
@@glennwisniewski9536 There are ways to find the despecialized edition to download online
This is one of the most wholesome things I've seen - it makes me so happy.
The Jawas made me happy… till… well… but they are my fav part of this universe so far
Hey Nia, When this movie came out there was nothing even close to it in scope, depth, and imagination. ----- I was 8 years old and It was a mind-blowing experience, to say the least, and it changed my life forever. ----- I wanted to make images and music that would impact people when they experienced it. ----- I wanted to do visual storytelling. The next time I felt that was when I saw, "The Matrix". Star Wars was the catalyst for my love of movies.
It was fun watching your reaction to Empire. I loved that you didn't blame Lando. People usually do but who would say no to "Vader". Enjoy your journey.
When this movie was made, there were no companies that could do effects like this. So they had to create their own special effects team. They became pretty much the industry leader in the special effects business ever since then.
24:29 I just want to point out the _leadership_ traits Han displayed, in this scene. For _years,_ I didn't _notice_ them.
Leia used a blaster to _open_ the garbage chute, but Han didn't respond to this change in circumstances by pushing everyone _else_ out of the way so he could _escape._ He's a _leader,_ and leaders think primarily of their _team._
As a leader, his priority became making sure no one was left _behind._ That meant bringing up the _rear_ and covering everyone _else's_ escape. The situation was dicey, but _courage_ is a leadership trait, _too._
"Did he just transcend into spirit form?" Well that's a neat way to say he died XD
😂 👻
28:11 Nia Ben Kenobi's body disappeared when he died because he learned how to transform into a Force spirit. This technique involves bridging the gap between the Living Force and the Cosmic Force, enabling an individual to effectively live on after their physical death.
I found your channel looking for Star Wars reactions. I was 13 Years old in 1977 when I saw Star Wars in the Movie Theatre. This Movie was exciting and ahead of its time with the special effects.
Thanks for watching! I was super impressed the whole time, I was constantly amazed with the film
I was fifteen, so I hear you! The movie came out the same year our summer vacation was to the Southwestern States; & I just happened to spot a movie marque from the highway! We saw the movie at a beautiful neighborhood theater in the suburbs of Santa Fe, New Mexico. It was "fun" trying to find our way back to the motel after dark...
Where did you see it?
@@cathyvickers9063 I saw it at a Movie Theatre in Wilmington, NC. I can't remember which one because all Four Movie Theatres were playing Star Wars!
3:22 yea Vader wear the black mask and breast play control panel in order to help keep him alive, .. he was wounded during the end of the Clone Wars, which is 19 years prior to this episode.
28:18 That's literally the best description I've ever heard from a first-time viewer. Yep, he essentially transcended. We call it 'becoming one with the Force'.

Even though I saw this at the cinema as a 10 year old kid, it never fails to impress me. The final battle for instance, has to be one of the best edited and scored sequences I've ever seen. It took me a few watches to spot little details, like the conversations between pilots cutting from the one speaking to the one listening mid sentence... they didn't need to do that, but Ben Burtt is a wizard who created so many great soundscapes over the years.
I was TEN in 1977 and this movie changed everything in the entertainment world. It was a quantum leap in visual effects technology, due to its perfection of Motion Control Photography, achieved with a computer-controlled camera crane. A few decades later, here we are with our cellphones, enjoying the computers made available by the boom in technology. Video games, music videos in the early 1980s, and new film editing styles all emerged from the changes ushered in by this film. There are also many parallels between Star Wars 1977 and King Kong 1933! That’s a whole other subject …….
You're right! The Droids SHOULD have gotten a medal! Everyone always notices that Chewy didn't get one (He got one. Just Wookie pride). But the Droids "don't get no respect." in this universe.
11:12 Incredible series! It takes place during the Prequel movies. The Clone Wars series actually fixes a lot of issues and plot holes that are in the Prequel Star Wars movies. Hope you do a reaction to the Clone Wars one day, if you have time though, I know it's alot lol
Plot holes? (excluding Sifo-Dyas mystery and Qui-Gon as ghostly voice)
The 2D Genndy Tartakovsky Clone Wars is much better than the CGI version.
I'm glad you appreciated how many surprises there are in this movie. The name "Star Wars" has become such a trope that people forget how good the original film actually was.
I love to watch people discover Star Wars for the first time and start to get a glimmer of an understanding of why so many of us became obsessed in our childhoods over this. There was nothing else like in movies OR in TV at the time. Sci-fi back then was cheap and plastic looking, with everyone in spandex and looking more like they belonged in a 70's glam-rock band than anything close to real life. But George Lucas wanted his galaxy to look like people _lived_ in it. The Imperial sets are all quite sterile; metal and glass and other shiny surfaces. But all the Alliance/Rebel locations are based in nature, their bases are made out of natural elements, and Han's ship _looks_ like the kind of vehicle where that character lives most of his life. It's his home, after all.
Glad you liked it, and I can't wait to see your reaction to the next one. Empire Strikes Back has always held the top spot for fans for the best movie, and I think you will love it.
20:31 Grand Moff Tarkin: "She _lied_ to us."
Sun Tzu: "All of _warfare_ is based on deception."
Hi Nia!🙂EXCELLENT reactions for the original Star Wars film!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽The creatures that look like CGI were added to the film years later. Also, the explosions of the planet, Death Star, and other things were enhanced years later too. The theatrical version of the original trilogy was only seen in theaters and on VHS tape. George Lucas chose not to release the original versions after VHS. George Lucas was an independent filmaker when the original trilogy was made. This is many, many, years before Disney acquired his company.
As someone who was only seven years old when Star Wars opened in May of 1977; I’m never ceased to be amazed when new generations of fans watch this film series for the first time.
I can’t wait to see you reactions to the later films; especially The Empire Strikes Back.
Something that should be noted here. As stated earlier in the thread, in 1997 this film along with The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi were given a Special Edition treatment of enhanced special effects; digital backgrounds and CGI technology were being used here as a test to see what could be done when they were going to make the prequels starting in 1999. For Empire, they didn’t do too much as far as new effect shots, but they did make changes to correct the original John Williams score for the film.
I remember also at that age how the kids on my street were berserk every morning at the bus stop exchanging Star Wars bubble gum cards.
Aye!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so glad you're starting this classic series! Star Wars is basically my childhood. Empire Strikes Back is the best movie of all time! Regardless, hope you like this one! 🙏🏽
They absolutely BOOMED the planet!
Congratulations🙏🙏🙏 you're the lucky winner of the ongoing giveaway text me on telegram to claim your prize;;;;;;;;;;;
When Ben said that R2 should be able to interpret "the entire Imperial network" ... think of it like the Star Wars equivalent of connecting to the Internet.
I'm 53, and I saw this movie when I was 8yo, in a theater in Eureka, CA... Eureka is in Humboldt County near the Redwoods... remember that as you continue to watch Star Wars ;)
Welcome to the Star Wars universe, Nia!
Thank you!! I like it here so far 😆
@@NiaMakiReacts I look forward to your reactions to the rest of the Star Wars movies!
1. Sir. Alec Guinness/Obi-Wan didn't want the part. Being a Shakespearian actor, he thought the entire idea was silly and was beneath him, but his wife talked him into taking the part.
2. The shrug Chewy gives Luke after he scares the tiny black droid is 🤪
3. These movies were put out in a certain order because there was limited technology and Lucas used and pushed forward the images needed to make a quality product. The best way to watch the is in the order they came out. We had to wait years for the next one. There was no internet where we had access to them whenever we wanted.
4. No need to go into anything after VI. Disney took over and the quality dropped. I realize you have to.
5. The only CGI was put in for the 25th anniversary package in this film are the critters the stormtroopers were riding at the beginning of the search for the robots, a couple of the huge critters outside the pub and the scene with Jabba the Hutt. Those were put in later after CGI was available. Otherwise, everything is what we had in 1977.
6. Obi-Wan sacrificed himself after he told Vader he would be stronger than ever. He went back into the force. He knows it's Luke's job to take over.
7. The awkwardness in the detention space is because Ford forgot his lines. It was kept in the movie anyway because it worked.
8. Wookies don't take rewards. That's why Chewie doesn't get a metal.
9. The Disney products suck. The next two are the best of the series. Enjoy!
The attack on the Death Star is iconic and something you never forget. George Lucas lifted the scene from the 1955 movie "The Damn Busters" which is a war film based on the British WW2 Operation Chastise in 1943.
In Operation Chastise, the British dropped a special bomb from an altitude of 60 that would skip along the water over top of the torpedo nets, hit the dam and then sink before detonating. The lower hit increased the water pressure.
also the reason why they don't serve droids in the cantina is 1 what would you serve a droid at a bar and 2 the main reason cause a droid could have explosives put inside it by a living being and have the droid suicide bomb the cantina instead of the owner of the droid doing so as a precaution they don't allow droids in which is perfectly reasonable and understandable and it also saves the lives of the people in the bar

one of my favorite reactors watching my favorite trilogy.
Also I love how little you know!
It’s about to get crazy
Yep. Episode 4 just ignites the interest, then Episode 5 literally PULLS people in!
@@eliasshaikh2065 I’m gonna love watching how everything unfolds in her perspective
Yes! I’m so glad that you’re watching this series! I loved it ever since I was a little kid and still do to this day. The original trilogy is the best. You’re going to love The Empire Strikes Back.
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can imagine". ------ Just to clear it up Nia, when Obi-Wan is killed by Darth Vader. His life energy merges with the force. ------ The Force as mentioned by Obi-Wan earlier is an energy that surrounds everything in the universe. ------ Obi-Wan and Vader have learned to control and harness it. One of the more advanced lessons is to be in tune with the Force energy. ------ It gets deeper, but this is a condensed version of Force energy that Obi-Wan and Vader are controlling.------ And I'm sure others will correct the info in this post.
A young Padawan is boarding the "Tantive IV." What will she make of this "old, long, slow moving, character-centered, jargon-filled, no-DFX" movie? 4:54 Welcome to Tatooine, did you bring your own water? 5:35 A Jawa collecting scrap. 6:05 You are watching the George Lucre edition, with DFX not seen in 1977. 9:54 A Krayt Dragon call. 11:33 The Jedi Light Saber, enthralling audiences since 1977. 13:33 Dark Side Choke. 14:28 Imperial Storm Trooper interrogations can be...brutal. 15:27 The correct phrase is: "tied down, dragged through the muck, and FUBARed by Disney under Sith Lord KK." 15:56 Jedi Mind Trick. 18:21 In the non-Lucre version, Jabba the Hutt didn't appear until "Return of the Jedi" (1983). 18:53 Going to Light Speed, a modern marvel. 19:25 Full Power test of Death Star's main weapon. 24:47 A memorable "Burn!" line. 25:07 A Dianoga. 27:00 Incredible Space Heroics. 27:54 The Jedi consider Death to be a quaint concept. 30:58 World War II-level space combat. 33:22 One million Imperial Storm Troopers fried. 34:27 Chewbacca wasn't into medals, either.
Aw loved your reaction and so happy you enjoyed it, I think you're gonna love this journey.
Congratulations🙏🙏🙏 you're the lucky winner of the ongoing giveaway text me on telegram to claim your prize;;;;;;;;;;;
Watching this reaction warms my heart. To see you react to this for the first time takes me back 40ish years when I first saw it. So wonderful.
I’m so upset I was missing out on this whole world!
@@NiaMakiReacts Not anymore, now that you're watching it!
Good reaction btw!
And just to let you know this is Not the original version from a1977! They did a great job remastering it,but this is knot what I saw in the theater when it first came out.
I've watched like 10 people react to this movie, and I love that all of them call him Hans at first
Welcome to the Star Wars family!!! .. you have quite a journey ahead of you!!! but don’t worry!! .. we’ll all be with you.
Obi-Wan said....when I die...I go Wooooosh!
I didn't see it in the comments so sorry if this is a repeat but the mind probe was the floating droid with the needle in Leia's prison chamber. It's basically a mobile torture and intarigation unit. Leia is also very strong mentally so she wouldn't be a "weak minded" person like Obi-Wan said could be influenced by using the force to persuade them. Glad you enjoyed the movie!
I think of The Force as the ultimate expression of Chi where you can interact, direct and be directed with the lifeforce of the universe.
If you're the princess of a planet that no longer exists, are you still a princess? "Princess" is a rank in a system. That system was blown up. And is she still rich?
14:24 It's a defining trait of _every_ hero that their backstory be marked by _tragic loss_ that they have risen _above._ What we're seeing, here, is Luke's conception as a _hero._
19:32 And here, we're seeing Princess _Leia's_ conception as a compelling hero.
Thanks so much for leaving in the initial chase of the huge Imperial cruiser chasing Leia's small ship. When I saw this in the theater on the massive screen, my jaw dislocated and fell to the floor. So many reactors just cut that off in favor of getting right to the "human" action. :)
This was a nice surprise in my day. Looking forward to the next 2 Star Wars movies.
All your questions can be answered as you continue watching the movies as well as reading some of the novels and comics.. George Lucas signed off on many creations from other writers who added adventures and characters to his Star Wars universe. Sadly though, many of these stories have been retcon-ed officially. Still, there is plenty of 'space' for more heroes, villians and fascinating planets to visit. I hope your journey finds something new. I've been in the Star Wars fandom since I was six years old and have not yet seen everything. Here's a fun fact: We'd have no theater quality sound (THX) on video and DVD if it wasn't for Lucas' company making Star Wars. I should also suggest bookmarking Wookiepedia for descriptions and facts on anything Star Wars related. These days, reacting to Star Wars is a great starting point for new CZcamsrs. Best of luck and MTFBWY!
I'll be interested to see your reaction to the sequel, _The Empire Strikes Back._ It is widely considered to be the best Star Wars film in the franchise, and is considered by most film critics to be one of the best films ever made.
6:06 that is a post release addition. There is something called the Special Edition which Lucas film added new scenes/effects into the older films. Since then though it's been very difficult to find the original unaltered cuts of the films. Lucas film only sold them once on digital format and all versions you find on stores or online retailers are sadly the Special Edition versions. So you will see scenes/effects that sadly were not part of the original 1977 versions of the films.
8:05 “So Uncle? What happened to your parents?”
😳😳😳😳😳😳
I’m with you for the ride now
James Earl Jones did the voice for Darth Vader while another actor wore the suit. I forgot why Jones refuse credit for his role. If you look up the movie on websites, he's not listed. Obi-wan Kenobi is played by Alec Guiness. He was in another great, long movie called The Bridge on the River Kwai. It's loosely based on a historical story but mostly fictional. It's about POW's forced to buid a bridge by the Japanese in WWII.
Nia, I like how you reacted to the Jawas, now I' really looking forward to your reaction to the Ewoks!! Looking forward to the rest of the series!! I really hope you'll react to the Mel Brooks movie Spaceballs! You'll understand the jokes now that you've seen episode 4.
30 ships against the deathstar, As Luthen puts its “30 men plus Kreegyr” meant he saw what the scope of this war would boil down to.
In the Extended Universe, Wuher (the bartender at Mos Eisley) watched his family be slaughtered by an IG-88 assassin droid. That's why he didn't like droids.
The trash creature was a Dianoga. It went into another chamber under the trash which they can not get to.
Glad I stumbled on this channel with Star Wars. Excellent job!
3:27 "Is that a CD? Like a- Like a- a disk?"
😳 In 1977? Oh, no. For certain, it's _some_ kind of portable storage device, but Compact Discs were not invented until _1982,_ and even _then,_ they were largely _unknown._
Nia thank you so much for amazing review!! it’s seldom that someone given such electrifying review like yours, you awakened my joy while watching episode IV, can’t wait for you to do Episode V the empire strikes back
You've taken your first step into a larger world.
I saw this in the theater in 1977. I was 9 years old. If you want to understand Gen X, first you have to understand the original trilogy. It helped define us.
I'm guessing that movie pallet is Rogue One, based on where the light brown points are. They match up with the points in the story where Jedha and Scarif play into the story

Remember the line, "Only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise". And keep count of the arms cut off.
Even the Mandalorian made fun of the fact Stormtroopers can't shoot an elephant at 2 yards.
One of the best SW reactions I’ve seen. And you have a mountain to go through. I’m here for it!
.....and welcome to the family! 😀 Nia, take your time getting through the 9 Star Wars films. It's A LOT! BUT... when you're done with that I'd' recommend the sci-fi series Firefly. It only ran for 1 season (14 episodes) in 2002, followed by a movie "Serenity" in 2005. Great characters...drama, action, humor..
the mic coming in from offscreen almost makes it look like the movie is holding and talking through it
Obi-Wan tells Vader that if he strikes him down he'd become more powerful than even Vader could imagine and the moment of his death, he became one with the Force. It was that moment that Luke could finally shoot straight, because Obi-Wan was with him through the Force.
Great reaction! Welcome to Star Wars! It's quite a ride!
The red droid Owen buys at first is an R5, newer than the R2 series but made cheaply. Artoo is actually considerably older than Threepio despite the latter's pretense of wisdom.
Somehow when Threepio falls as the Sand Person attacks Luke, the restraining bolt the Jawas welded onto his chest disappears.

Imagine if they had bought R5-D4 .
Think about how long R2-D2 would have just drifted around Tattoine, from one owner to another?
So excited for you! Some of the best movies ever, and its honestly cool that you don't know too much. Can't wait for more!
Debating if Obi Wan vanished or died: answer- BOTH. We call it becoming "ONE WITH THE FORCE".

Return on the Jedi means Darth Vader finally turned away from the dark side and returned to what he once was.
A little easter egg to watch for in every episode, Ehn someone says, "I have a bad feeling about this".
my favourtite franchise I am so here for this! :D loved this univers since I was introduced to it at age 13 two decades ago :D
When you get to episode 3 have tissues at the ready.
"Don't they get a medal?" They got metal, but no medal. :(
Star Wars was truly a cultural phenomenon. Space Sci-fi had always been present, since the early days of visual media, but it was never as huge as it became, after Star Wars. Much of the effects techniques were pioneered, for that film. Now, I will say that the film does look spectacular for its time. HOWEVER, I should mention that there was a time, just before the turn of the century, when the creator took the original film, and made some [mostly] cosmetic updates, using the cutting edge technology of the time.
They made some of the space battle footage look a bit better. You can see the fighters hovering, as they're taking off, instead of close ups on the cockpits. Also, some of the creature footage you were talking about was added/enhanced. The most famous change was a bar scene, where the entire conflict with the lizard guy was changed, with a sloppy edit. Apparently, the creator didn't like the idea of Han taking a preemptive move against Greedo, when it became clear that his life was in danger.
I am glad that you are tackling this series. You are pretty insightful with your guesses, as you are probably aware, since you have already seen the second film. I am glad that you like this. I am also glad that you haven't had that much exposure to the franchise, and have been able to come into the series mostly fresh. Now, I will see what you thought of the next one...
Congratulations🙏🙏🙏 you're the lucky winner of the ongoing giveaway text me on telegram to claim your prize;;;;;;;;;;;
The killing of Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru included torture.
The fact that they were incinerated down to skeletons almost certainly indicates that the Stormtroopers used a technique called The Burning.
It was described in another book sanctioned by George Lucas describing the early adventurers of Han and Chewie.
The Burning involved setting a blaster on its lowest power mode and searing the flesh from the victim’s bones a little at a time. It seldom failed to get answers from the victim, if answers were to be had. In this case, Owen and Beru would have had little information to give.
As Han observed on the barbaric practice, those who employed such methods didn’t deserve to live.
Down with the Empire indeed.
Chewie : - "WHERE'S MY GOD DAMN MEDAL!!!"
I'm so glad you're starting with this episode, and will watch them in their release order. That's the order in which we saw them in the teacher. Can you imagine what it was like having to wait three years between each one? That's what we did. George Lucas took awhile to decide to do the prequel movies and show how Obi-Wan's pupil became Darth Vader. (BTW, the prequels are where I fell in love with Ewan McGregor, the best choice to play Obi-Wan Kenobi!)

Nia
Back then, no movie studios would not bill the budget for this classic. So, George Lucas created his own studio, LucasFilm. He also created different aspects of his studio such as Industrial Light and Magic or ILM, special effects company for the special effects on 1977's movie. Then Lucas shopped the movie for distribution. Only 20th Century Fox agreed to distribute the film. Rest is history. Lucas had group of companies until he sold them to Disney in 2012. But Lucas still advised other filmmakers in standalones and sequels, and series.
So glad you are doing Star Wars! You were suggested to me reacting to firefly. Loved your reaction so I looked to see what other videos you have. Star Wars was HUGE when it came out. You are going to love this series. I have subscribed and look forward to seeing more of your reactions!
You have taken your first step into a larger world.
26:52 Now what practical purpose could _this_ room possibly serve? I mean, I can see how useful it is for adding tension to the _plot,_ but what reason could the _Empire_ have for building a room like this on their _station?_
These first 3 movies were pre Disney. George Lucas was a visionary, it all started with his first film American Graffiti. He made Graffiti to finance his Star Wars movie, no movie studio to make it. It came out before my senior year of high school.
I cried watching this, thank you
That pallet looks to me like The Rise of Skywalker, based on all the black and blue in the second half
"Smithereens" Now that's a word I haven't heard in a long time. Popeye the sailor 1979. Kidding of course. Great reaction.
"Clone Wars" is an animated series that takes place in between episodes 2, "Attack of the Clones" and 3, "Revenge of the Sith" with exception to the later parts of season 7 which takes place at the same time as and just after the events of episode 3...
This series consists of 133 episodes, just under a half hour each, with exception to the "Pilot" special, which is an hour, 40 minute movie in itself. If you want to learn more about Star Wars, then this series will really explain not only the force better, but also develops and fleshes out many characters, good, evil, and everyone in between.
There are many great and memorable episodes, but also quite a few "Filler episodes" as well. Overall, The series gets better and better as it progresses. Just don't start watching "Clone Wars" until you have watched at least episode 2 and episode 3 before watching season 7... But first, watch the rest of this trilogy before starting the prequels...
Lol... droids have to wait outside because they don't eat/drink, hence the treatment.
Loved how Harrison Ford won't be able to help against the trash monster because it's a snake.
19:33 it went all ring-splodey and stuff.
33:28 it went all ring-splodey and stuff.
Ben became one wit da Force He is now a Force Ghost ...
Your reaction to 'Star Wars: A New Hope Episode IV' was very enjoyable! I would say the best one. Please do a reaction to the 'Lord of the Rings Trilogy, the Extended Versions in three parts because the Extended Versions tell the whole storyline of some of the characters. It took 8 years for Peter Jackson to complete 'Lord of The Rings Trilogy' and filmed entirely in New Zealand. I'll be looking forward to it.
One of the things that a lot of people forget because of the sheer number of films and Star Wars properties... is that at it's core Star Wars has always been about rebelling against an evil empire (fascism/authoritarianism). The reason for the rebellion and even Luke's heroes journey is the brutal and inhumane behavior of the Empire.
When people say "get politics out of my movies" they are basically ignoring why movies and shows exist... politics are always part of media, the two are intertwined.
I enjoyed your video and your reactions! Well done!
This was Pre-Disney Star Wars....in case no one mentioned it
Star Wars(1977) competed with The Other Side of Midnight, Annie Hall, Black Sunday and Damnation Alley.
