The prequels are weird; people used to hate them unironically, but we meme’d on them so hard that over time there’s now a certain fondness for them
Not to mention people loved Clone Wars so much that the bad scenes of the prequels are now only a minority of what "prequel era" means. This gives people the occasion to focus on the few things where the movies actually excel: the combat scenes.
Nah it’s not really that, like to an extent that’s the case, but really it was the fact that the kids who grew up with the prequels grew up and had the internet to show their love for it (via memes and other mediums)
Either that or our mutual hatred for the sequels made us appreciate the prequels even more
They're still garbage, as garbage as the sequel trilogy.
It also helps that the prequel trilogy is brilliant compared to the sequel trilogy!
So Anakin never cleaned the racks and Luke never picked up those power converters... skipping out on errands must run in the Skywalker family.
skipping out on errands is a path to the dark side I guess
being unable to control your emotions so much that you might go completely crazy is a Skywalker trait as well. But they are also super fcking strong with the force so its a trade off i guess
I got no idea why Obi One shouting "Nooooooooooooooooooo" and then CinemaSins calmly saying "No" was so funny, but it had me laughing so hard
He does it now for other movies where the character over-dramatically says no, and God, I look forward to it every time now.
my God how do you not know that was vader
As little sense at it makes, Padmé was apparently 14 when she met Anakin while he was 9, so their age discrepancy isn't as pedophilic as it initially seems
But Anakin's behavior when they meet again is super creepy.
Hayden Christiansen's acting is terrible AND the part is badly written.
She was 13 and Anakin was 9. 23 and 19 by clone wars. Completely illegal
So you're saying that she held an extremely important government office for her entire planet at the age of 14? Dang.
she was 17 thank you
Also Liam Neeson isn't killing anyone in this scene... most accurate cinematic assessment ever
56:14 *Due to its profuseness CinemaSins hates love scenes, the sight of love scenes sickens CinemaSins to such a degree it's sinned or skip it.*
56:46 *By saying "...good is a point of view..." Palpatine is right, just like beauty is (only) in the eye(s) of the beholder(s) therefore Anakin is easily manipulated because he cannot say Palpatine words are incorrect.*
I guess he didn't yet have that "particular set of skills"
@@jsprite123 Ah yes, a man of culture
Dude good Sin, how did we all miss that.
He used to practice his lightsaber skills with a bat back in ireland
“Execute Order 66”
**Jedi plot armor disabled**
Execute Order 16
What? No stormtrooper should appear on parade in a ginger toupe?
No, the one about killing all the Jedi!
Oh, Order 66.
Yes, that one. Why do you have to make me look stupid in front of everyone?
Based on a Red Dwarf "sketch."
@@ronnietexan thank god palpatine didnt accidentally say order 65 huh?
colman trebor....
It was a Cheatcode
@@iamjayrts1846 lol.
Now inwant to see That as a spoof!
Ewan McGregor is a treasure. Protect him at all costs. I love that man.
Don't forget Natalie Portman and Samuel L Jackson.
And Hayden Christensen too
@@jasonmonks8423 Are you kidding? His acting was AWFUL. It might have been the worst part of these movies and that INCLUDES Jar Jar!
He was inspired to play in Star Wars by his uncle who played wedge Antilles in episode 4.
I actually think it makes complete sense Shmi holding on to C3P0. Her son was gone, maybe forever as far as she knew, and he was something he had built, a piece of him left behind. There's no way she wouldn't have kept him, and Lars probably fixed him up because he realised he could actually be useful, speaking the binary language of his moisture vaporators. The exact reason why Owen buys him in episode 4. In fact, now I think about it, maybe C3P0 actually WAS the reason Lars bought Shmi, because he wanted the droid for his vaporators but she refused to leave 3P0 because he reminded her too much of her son, Lars probably found that endearing hence their eventual relationship.
Why didn’t Owen know 3PO in A New Hope though? He literally says tells him his name
@@randomnerdythings9094 Droids are dime a dozen, I don't think he would have cared enough to know.
@@corellioncrusaderproductio4679 I guess Owen is a lower life form
@@randomnerdythings9094 Why wouldn't Obi-Wan recognize R2-D2 if you have 7 seasons of Clone Wars where he saw R2 and 3PO together, knowing Anakin's attachment to the two, even getting ticked off when Anakin goes above and beyond to rescue R2?
Obi-Wan doesn't bat an eye at either of them in ANH despite all their history together.
@@corellioncrusaderproductio4679 he didn’t claim to have not recognized him. His exact words were, “I don’t recall owning this droid.” He never owned R2, Anikan did. So in other words, “What I told you was true. From a certain point of view.”
The actors didn't really deserve the hate they got in these films. The scripts, plot, direction and no secondary oversite on Lucas had a lot to contribute. People often forget the first Star Wars film's original script was a disaster before someone stepped in and held lucas back, cleaning up the scripts.
usually his wife lol
@@budakiel6450 God bless his wife
This is a world Lucas created...you can’t ultimately say his interpretation of his own world is terrible
@@thaiylooze8217 oh it was originally, the first draft of the Ep4 script was insane. What he created and what was reigned in are two different things. The prequels show his insanity left untethered.
bingo. honestly, there ARE great qualities in the prequels....... shame other parts of the film's construction failed them
The biggest reason that I appreciate the prequels these days is because without them we would have never of had Dave Filoni’s The Clone Wars or Rebels. Without those series, some of my favorite characters would have never been birthed.
@@dukeofthedance8062 Ah-soka
A true masterpiece
Mine's Bly and Aayla-Secura
@@dukeofthedance8062 Dont remember much from the Star-War's Movies I haven't seen them in years I just remember the character's and other bits and pieces just not the hole story line.
And the bad batch. Great show
i think the creative of the clone wars TV show really helped to make Episode 3 feel more natural, so now i actually enjoy watching it
also it really fleshed out anakin's character development making way more likeable than he was in the prequels
@@atiredail.e You mean retconned his personality completely and the personalities of numerous other characters
6:54 the fact that cinema sins added a sin for BIRDS FLYING is crazy.
HVAC professional here, yes I could make it to where you only send poison gas into a single room it's actually super easy barely an inconvenience.... A spaceship would have a zoned system in order to make each space comfortable meaning each room would have a damper in a duct that is fed by the main trunkline allowing the occupant to adjust the amount of airflow into the space. This means if you shut all dampers and opened just the one into the intended space you could indeed flood that room with gas through the HVAC system without risk to the other rooms. You wouldn't even need to invent anything new I could build this today...
This was the exact comment I was looking for! Thank you Plot Hole Detective!
In universe there's another explanation as well.
The vast majority of the ship doesn't have any living being in it. The crew is basically just on the bridge, so they only have air in where ever the Neimoidians are.
But that also just leads into "why not just expel the air and let the Jedi suffocate?"
Hey you could be on to something, but what about if zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
LOL!! This reminded me of way back in 2001 when I played "Star Wars: Obi Wan" for the Xbox. My cousin, another friend and I, already could barely play the game without busting out laughing, cause during the game, you're following QuiGon and QuiGon and ObiWan's leg movements (while running), looked like they were tryin' to run with corn-cobs up their butts. Of course the weed didn't help matters any.
But what actually ruined us for good that day was, I was playing and had made it to that room where the gas is going to be released. In the movie when the gas comes out of the vents, QuiGon simply says "Dioxin!!" and then he and ObiWan hold their breath. In the game when the gas is released QuiGon calmly says the word, "Dioxin!!" but right after, screams out the word, "gas" like a pissed off drunk person with a speech impediment.
It sounded like, "GAAHH YYYYUSSSSS!!". {0.o} I dropped the controller on the floor and we laughed I know for a half hour till our sides friggin' hurt. 😂 🤣 💀
all true but you seem worryingly keen to start this project, who are you planning to gas? did producer guy put you up to this?
Although the Prequel Trilogy has its fair share of problems, it also holds a special place in my heart, as I grew up watching these movies back in the early 2000s. The Prequel Trilogy helped to expand the Star Wars lore significantly, while also introducing us to the Jedi Order in its prime as well as multiple new planets and species. I love all three films, and Revenge of the Sith ranks second in my Top 3 Star Wars films. Plus, John Williams' music in these films is simply divine.
The intro to episode 3 with the drums banging as the Jedi starfighters fly by into that huge battle over corescant still gives me goosebumps.
attack of the clones is realy bad though. phantom menace and revenge of the sith i like despite all their flaws, but i jsut don't feel it's worth watching anakin and padmes "lovestory" and all the other bullshit just for that admittedly awesome arena scene
May be an unpopular opinion, but I really like the whole political aspect of the prequel trilogy.
Well... the Jedi Order in the very last days of its waning prime, at least. 200 years before the Prequels was it's real prime. Before the extremely long life of Yoda had, unfortunately, changed the Order in ways that he saw happening, but wasn't able to stop in time before the Sith latched onto that weakness. An unfortunate spreading of hero worship that had taken hold, and the Jedi who were utterly incapable of following the Force as Yoda naturally could had, enmasse, decided to actually make _rules_ for the Order that said that all Jedi had to try and act like Yoda. Banning things such as having children, Jedi being allowed to marry, trying to bury all emotion... You know - all the ways they'd failed Anakin, and were all obviously failing themselves. _(Didn't help that Yoda himself had become quite a bit rigid in his later years, and as such just assumed that once he was gone the Order would sort itself back out. Ontop of failing Anakin it also created other problems such as Darth Kryat - an emporer who ruled far longer than Palpatine, etc.)_
However... right? As much hate as these caught from shifting Star Wars away from a seemingly magical, mystical sort of story with some sci-fi tossed in... the novels had LONG ago already done that. Anyone who'd read them seems to have quite enjoyed the Prequels. Except, maybe, Jar Jar.
What?!
In reality, Anakin brought balance to the force. There were two Jedi in the original trilogy, along with two sith. For a time, it was indeed balanced
Except Ashoka, Ezra, and probably many more jedi were still alive
@@uhhhhhhh4040 non of them are a jedi
@@afonsoabreu5144 …….
@afonsoabreu5144 there was literally an entire core of people existing to hunt down jedi. Lots of Jedi existed still just in hiding
i think people misunderstand what balance in the force meant. the point is that the dark side is a perversion of the force, and inherently unbalances it. eradicating dark side practicioners is what brings balance, not making an equal number of jedi and sith. the force is not a ying yang
I agree with all entries except for one.
Dooku did sense Obi-Wan listening in on his conversation with Nute Gunay on Geonosis, but he decided to ignore him as he knew Obi-Wan would be captured soon as guards were already warned about it.
The first talk between the two reveals indirectly that Dooku knew Obi-Wan was there all along, but let him as he still hoped he could turn Obi-Wan to his side.
At this point, Dooku was not yet outright evil and he was simply battling what he rightfully saw as corrupt Republic, just like the rest of the Separatists. In Attack of the Clones, none of them, with partial exception of Nute Gunray, were outright evil.
I say "partial exception of Nute Gunray" because, as we all know from Episode I, Gunray was simply manipulated and used by Darth Sidious and was not evil by default, but by bitterness over the events of Episode I.
Dooku's duel with Obi-Wan, Anakin and especially his former master Yoda was what finally pushed Dooku to the side of evil and, by the time of third movie, he was a full villain.
To this day, I think that Dooku and members of Separatist Council did not deserve to die the way they did. They should have stood trial for their crimes.
Well Palpatine had Anakin kill Dooku to make room for Anakin to become his apprentice and to slaughter the Separatist council to tie up loose ends and to push Anakin further to the dark side.
I have to disagree with you. Dooku was teetering on being evil before Qui-Gon died. Qui-Gons death is what pushed him over the edge. He went to search for the Sith lord only to discover that he was leader of the Senate. Dooku was full blown dark side after meeting Sidous.
@@joshuabowen6919 Actually, that isn't entirely clear.
While we can say he was evil, Anakin's statement "From my perspective, the Jedi are evil!" might be part of it.
Dooku did see the Republic as corrupt bureaucracy to the detriment of the people. It's unclear if he wanted outright power (the typical "evil" thing) or legitimately disliked the corrupt (can we say "evil"?) government. He basically led a secession/revolution movement.
One could argue that finding out the Sith Lord was also leading the Senate - the thing you ALREADY thought was corrupt and evil - might rightly push someone over the edge into deciding the whole thing needed to be brought down. And lest we forget, Dooku tried making his own apprentices, meaning he had plans to take out Palpatine. Again, whether for power or to rid the galaxy of his evil is a question whose answer died with Dooku - who looked shocked and betrayed when Palpatine ordered Anakin to kill him.
@@joshuabowen6919 True but he did so because he saw the terrible state Republic was in. He was not fully evil during Episode II for sure. Having to battle his former master Yoda proved to him that there is no peaceful solution to the whole thing and that all out war to bring the Republic down was inevitable.
Careful, you’re sounding like a Separatist
It's crazy, in hindsight I have a real appreciation for the intent of the prequels in showing what the Jedi were like as top dogs, and how they fell into ruin. The worldbuilding is really neat, if not always well-executed...
Exactly. At least there was an attempt to build the world, even if the writing is flawed, at least they tried!
It wasnt just a soft reboot like EP7.
I would love to know how these turned out in the parallel universe where Lucas actually sought edits and criticism for the scripts before handing them over. I always got the impression he wasn't _that_ bothered about the Star Wars Universe he'd created - he was a bit of a hack, and it was the vehicle universe for those films he wanted to make that time, rather than a place he fell asleep thinking about. There were probably hundreds of scriptwriters who were more invested in the details than he was, and with a keener sense of what actually need go into a film.
the prequels still suck. The Jedi are just some boring, stupid cultists who fail at everything
It seems to come down to an age divide. If you were a boy in elementary school when Episode 1 released, you probably barely understood it and loved it. Further the movies aged with you, because by the time you were a preteen, so was your hero Anakin!
However if you were old enough to be a Star wars fan from before Episode 1 and to understand the movie, you thought it was hot garbage.
@@joew8438 Bold move to basically say "If you liked the prequels, you were just dumb and didn't understand it."
Quite frankly, George Lucas had said Star Wars was successful because it was made for kids, not adults. The prequels were right where they needed to be, but the demographic was growing up. it has nothing to do with a more sophisticated understanding, you just weren't the primary target audience anymore.
2 sins for cinema sins for not remembering that Jar Jar told Qui Gon that his life debt is "demanded by the gods" 5 minutes earlier
And fir completely ignoring the line they highlighted inphsbtom menace about padme being an ejected queen
@@jmurray1110 spelling is terrible lol but yeah ur right
@@agastyasharma2612 yeah speed does that at times
there are alot more sins for them here then that. lol like all their whining about cgi when each sequel had more cgi then all three PT films combined. its esp funny at 13:42 when they do that little rant/"joke" over a scene with no cgi in it. everything in the shot was real.
Another one for saying clone army when talking about the droid army. @ 5:01
Taking Baby Luke to Tatooine makes a twisted bit of sense (going by the film novelization): Anakin HATES that place and would never go back there willingly, especially given all the pain he experienced there. Palpatine wouldn't think another Skywalker would be hanging out there. Hide him in plain sight: it's actually kind of genius.
They knew perfectly well that it would be the last place Vader would ever think to look.
"Vader will never set foot on Tatooine, out of fear of awakening Anakin."
But that also kind of makes him less smart, especially now with the awful Kenobi series.
Also let's not forget how big planets are
Vader didn't go down to the surface when the empire was there.
33:28 this is actually explained in Tales of the Jedi. Count Dooku deleted Kamino during his transition to the darkside. But the fact you had to wait 20 years to know that should still be sinned.
I said it 20 years ago: The problem with prequels is that too many things HAVE TO happen in order for the original films to make sense. And some things become predictable, like C3P0 having his mind erased. Saw that one coming years before.
well most people dont think about it and like to know how things came to be, and they covered almost everything and didnt really have any holes which is hard as hell to do
so many things had to happen for your birth to make sense, you don't hear me complaining
this is a joke btw
@@dukeofthedance8062 I 100% agree!
The clone war series fills in a lot
I mean, you can have it be predictable as long as it's enjoyable to watch.
"Always two there are"
"Except when you kill one, right?"
Ironically the expanded Universe has by now given Sidious/Palpatine at least four apprentices/second Siths with the periods of training definitely overlapping.
Queens on Naboo are elected for ten years. But they had to cut that out of the movie, it only ended up in the comic to the movie.
Maul, Dooku, Anakin, and who would be the fourth?
@@9pepe7 don’t think he’s cannon but Starkiller
@@Vega01 Afaik, Starkiller is neither canon, nor a Palpatine apprentice. He was Vader's
I’m pretty sure they talked about Naboo Queens being elected in Episode 2. Otherwise Padme would still be Queen.
@@SunlightGwyn They said she was elected queen in episode 1... And it is even included in this video. But then he talked about the movie not mentioning it.
Regarding R2's ability to drive on the exterior of the ship - apart from the obvious answer of "magnets", as long as the moving ship isn't currently accelerating, even an astronaut on top won't slide off without air friction.
It’s the ‘yusa in big Dudu this time’ for me
General Grievous is not a robot, he's a cyborg and was once a humanoid.
You know that. I know that. Some fans know that. But I think General Grievous is a great example of exactly what's wrong with the prequels. You shouldn't have to do research, watch 7 seasons of tv and read a bunch of books for fundamental aspects of a movie to make sense to you. It's ok to have deep lore, but you gotta keep it accessible and the prequels are just so bogged down with it.

@@emiliou6898 then your taste in bad movies is far worse than Akmal's
I believe, though it’s definitely a sin that they didn’t explain this, but in overall lore the reason the jedi’s force powers were growing weaker was because the Jedi temple on corusant was actually built on a sith temple to dampen it but it did the opposite with palpatine in power
Didn't they use that to explain how Yoda was able to hide on Dagobah? In the first Thrawn trilogy, Leia explains that he fought and destroyed a Dark Jedi there, which resulted in the dark side cave he sends Luke into in Empire... It also shields him from being detected.
So again, the sin is Lucas only having so many ideas. 😁
Well first off the the sith temple also carried all lot of dark side artfacts.Those artifacts were probably dampening the jedi ability to sense the darkside.Also Dagobah is a darkside nexus which aligns more along with the darkside of the force.Allowing lightsiders like Yoda and Luke to hide their signature in the force.
don't you tell me that no one realize how close to 4 reefer that jedi temple look like???!!!! As soon as i saw it, i couldn't help but smile at what that 'means', somehow...
This channel's biggest sin is rushing through the information like it's a 30-second commercial! I hate that! Much of the funny remarks are lost because they feel the need for rushing through each video!
@@TheSoleProprietor thats the entire point of the channel though, if they spent a couple seconds showcasing every humorous part of a movie like Zombieland, the video would be longer than the movie. Also watch Cinema Wins for points added for humor, this channel focuses on sins as opposed to wins.
Why isn't Sidius wearing his Sidius face until Episode III?
"Hey, Sidius looks like Palpatine."
"He does."
The reason the trade disputes are so prominent and important is cuz Palps was using something like that to spark the greater war. He just needed that small bit to really get people fighting, so that he can later segregate planets from each other further by continuing poking and prodding in every direction to cause unrest and conflict. Then he swoops in and "fixes" everything so people cheer and wholeheartedly accept his leadership.
I know a lot of the people think these movies suck, but i love all the things palpatine sets up, they really made him an incredibly brilliant villain, one who worked decades to achieve what he did.
The problem is absolutely none of this is in any way apparent to a movie watcher
@@zingzingjr.4596it’s completely apparent. That’s the whole point of the name “phantom menace”
I can understand why Yoda still uses a cane. As I get older, and I back gets worse, I notice that I can still bust my ass at work. However, once I'm headed to the time clock, all that pain I was ignoring (or at least most of it...the best I could) comes rushing to me.

To be fair that isnt really explained at all. You can kind of see his eyes at times and possibly organy things that Obi-wan shoots, but if you didnt actually know his backstory he's 99.5% a robot and its something that could be easily mistaken. Film probably should have shown his organic nature a bit more
Notice how Qui Gon's lightsaber burns through very thick doors like knife through butter but in Rise of the Skywalker, Kylo Ren s lightsaber just clotheslines someone insead of slicing through the fleshy material.
let's just forget the sequels ever happened
Disney turned hot plasma laser weapons into pool noodles
The fact that Anakin and Qui-Gon Jinn are already running when Darth Maul attacks is not a sin. There is a deleted scene before that where Qui-Gon cuts down one of Darth Maul’s probe’s. The visual effects were never finished and what was complete of the scene can be seen on the 2011 Blu Ray Release. That’s why they are already running.

Yeah, out all the horrible sins, I never understood why Anakin didn't destroy Palpatine the second he learned Padme was dead.
It was the *one* thing he'd promised and that Anakin cared about!
Anakin loved Palps more than Padme. Saving Padme was a matter of guilt for him.
Jar Jar will always be the most powerful Sith ever known.
Actually, Qui-Gon used the Jedi Mind Trick on the Gungan boss like 3 times. I think he was guessing when he said, "Your gods demand that his life belongs to me now." because you see he does a subtle wave of his hand.
And I think you missed something. Naboo elects its queens. They explain it in there but you skip over it.
He's a damn trekie ... That's why
This guy manipulates scenes and info just to pad out the count. He didn't miss it
Jar Jar literally tells Qui-Gon he owes his life to him

@@user-lq7ct1fh5f yes and the gods demand it
Such a shame that the Jedi couldn't find common ground with Dooku. He wasn't outright evil, he just knew about how corrupt the Senate was. He really wasn't unreasonable and even hoped Obi-wan would join him. Imagine if he outted Palpatine before Anakin killed him, shit would have turned out pretty differently.

the most ironic part of the whole prophecy is anakin does balance the force, just not how the jedi skewed it. Went from hundreds of jedi against 2 sith down to 2 jedi against 2 sith (yoda, obi-wan against palpatine, vader) that is actual balance
That is not balance. George Lucas explained it. Anakin brought balance to the force in episode 6 when he killed the emperor and wiped out the sith and only the jedi were left.
The jedi are the balance of the force.

Luke, not Anakin, balanced the Force. If not for him, Vader would've remained enslaved to Sidious
Darth Jar Jar uses a style based on drunken kung fu which makes you look weak and stupid but intended to fool your enemies and to put them at ease.
And if you look at Jar Jar as the sith it explains a lot. He messed up the space ship, making them have to land to find Anakin. He is the one that gave Palpy all of his extra senate powers. You see him praying when Anakin wins the pod race. Did he cause Sabulba to crash? Darth Jar Jar was what we needed and were robbed of
@@inuhime313 Yeah, I am a believer.
If only George backed himself more. The fact we hated Jar Jar was proof that the initial plan was working, I so wish it was real
There's a comic where he uses a lightsaber like a boss before one of the clones takes it away. The soldiers think he just got lucky. But we know the truth.
16:02 IT IS. As a kid, I would watch these with my dad, and I would ask him, "But dad, wasn't that kid like 10 in the movie before this one? Isn't she supposed to be much older than him?"
Nowadays, I still don't know the answer.
She was like 14 when they met
She was 14, he was 9. Only a 5 year difference.
Obi-Wan and Anakin battled against Dooku numerous times during Clone Wars, so that is what Kenobi is referring to as "our speciality".
No. No. Stop trying to retcon stuff.
Obiwan is only one who fought maul the first public sith lord forever so that Makes him a expert i guess
@@SkySoFew its only a retcon cuz you never watched the damn series-
@@Daeneiracorn No, it's a retcon because they told you how the story ended and THEN went back and changed stuff.
@@Daeneiracorn ...The Clone Wars show is nothing but retconning. It came out long after the prequel films. When Obi Wan says they're our specialty, he's not referring to the clone wars because the episodes weren't written yet.

WW1 soldier: I think I will.
57:16 Ok, out of all the things that merited explanation, this is the one I finally settled on. Plagueis didn’t intentionally create Anakin through the Force nor did he have any direct knowledge of his conception at the time Shmi became pregnant. The Living Force actually spontaneously conceived Anakin as a response to Darth Plagueis’ repeated attempts to manipulate life through the Dark Side. Plagueis’ unnatural attempts to create life are actually one of the prophesied events that throw the Force out of balance and lead to the creation of a Chosen One. These movies might not exposit enough for the average viewer but the lore that they don’t explain is very deep and well thought out.
I don't know how someone could take the anakin vs obi wan fight and make it seem so hated
It’s such a bad fight
@thegoodreylo4749 it's the best fight in the entire series.

I'm a big fan of Star wars, but I love watching your videos ripping up inaccuracies. I really appreciate the attention to every little details, I feel like all movies should do that!
TBH you shouldn't trust Cinemasins for this kind of attention to detail...most of it is personal nitpicking for the sake of comedy, not valid points to criticize a movie
@@blue1133 enough of what he says is a sin is also not accurate by any means and can easily be explained by common sense. Such as sending Jedi in episode 1 it was clear the federation was afraid of Jedi and would have easily conceded to the republic if palps never interfered with their politics
Yeah I agree with the other replies, it is mostly for the sake of entertainment- it is not a valid criticism. It has a lot of inaccuracies, nitpicking, and a lot of just complete lies.
For example, he acted confused about the Queen of Naboo, even though it is clear in the movies what her role is. She is not the Queen of the republic, she isn't even an actual, "queen." She is more like an elected president, with a 4-year term. So, yeah.
Cinema sins do bring up as you say ''inaccuracies'' but I would say it's in the personality of the narrator of cinemasins to cry and complain all the time,I wonder how FUN he must be around other people
Nothing can beat that feeling the first time we encountered Star Wars - IN THE CINEMA! - the chase at the start of Episode IV. Methinks the sense of fun/joy was slowly & surely sucked out of every subsequent movie.
Empire Strikes Back was way better!!
25:22 Palpy was taken under tutelage by Plageus primarily because Plageus was impressed with his ability to hide his presence in the force as an untrained adolescent. An advanced dark side ability.
Hologram technology for meetings typically used either a hand communicator like in episode 3 or an area hologram underneath the caller (and both can act as receivers or Synced if positioned corrected)
For episode 1 yes sideous can see both of them around the table and darth maul was just outside of the floor projector and walked on it
but their true purpose is to allow Hasbro to sell the regular action figure and the special hologram translucent blue plastic version of the same figure.
When Shmi explains to Qui-Gon that Anakin had no "father", I read that as being she was raped because she is a slave, and she didn't know who the father was nor wanted to admit it to a stranger she had only just met.
Palpatine also insinuates that he created Anakin through midichlorion manipulation, in his conversation about Darth Plagious.
@@yaemz123 palpatine doesn’t say he created anakin he says plagious could manipulate life, palpatine isn’t strong enough to do that and it’s unclear who really created anakin
@@Cooz. said that plagious could manipulate midichlorions to create life, and that his apprentice (palpatine) learned that. So like I said, he "implied" it, since plagious was dead long before Anakin was born.
@@yaemz123 This is all wrong. Plagious and Sidious tried to create a weapon for the Sith, and the force, to retaliate, created Anakin, the chosen one, that would bring balance to the force by destroying the Sith, which, he ends up doing.
@@Agherosh I didn't say it was true. I said that Palpatine insinuated it was true. You're talking about expanded universe stuff I think, which is no longer canon.
You never removed a sin for the throwaway line "you're shorter than I expected" remaining accurate throughout the Clone Wars series. Doing such a thing before the multipliers at the end would reduce the sin count drastically.
Also, the fact that Naboo's Queen is an elected position was made known in the first movie in this series.
Yes. Padme actually comments that she was elected and she didn't think she was old enough when that happened.
The funny thing is, after we hated on it so much, this is now the second best Star Wars trilogy. The Sequel trilogy now occupies dead last, especially the Rise of Skywalker.
The prequels failed. They sucked. Live with it.
@@yusefendure no
@@sulkel Then live in denial. Those movies paved the way for the Disney garbage out today, and they defy logic. Why did Count Dooku leave the Jedi Order? Why didn't the Council investigate the presence of the Sith on Coruscant, Tatooine, and the Senate in Episodes I or II? How and why did the Sith split from the Jedi in the first place?
The Prequels failed because they couldn't answer those fundamental questions, and they gave us stiff, lifeless characters that existed w no motivation
@@yusefendure balls
It's also the 2nd most hated.
The reason Palpatine is stronger against Yoda is because Yoda was the most powerful force user, whereas windu was the most powerful duelist in the order and was the only jedi (in the Disney canon) to perfect his particular style of combat, which was created to specifically counter dark jedi.
I have never watched the movies, but remember playing the prequels LEGO games as a kid and I'm now thankful that they didn't have any dialogue
Another point to make that shows just how blind the Jedi were is all those statues in Palpatine's office in episode's 1-3 after he becomes chancellor are all Sith statues. They had a whole section in that library seen in episode 2 and 3 within the temple full of all information gathered on the Sith. Would think one of those Jedi masters who were seen more than once in that office would look around and go hold on a sec I recognize those statues.
It's like having antifa not know what the deaths head or black sun is. We know what those things are, and you really have to be blind to not recognize them.
After those awful sequels, these are freakin’ masterpieces.
I disagree they are master pieces by themselves
@@agastyasharma2612 in comparison to the sequels it’s freaking Gone with the wind.
@@agastyasharma2612 in comparison to the sequels it’s freaking Gone with the wind.
They always such been.
The prequels at least tell a coherent story that gets better as it goes along and finally ended up in the right place. The sequels got worse and worse until the Skywalkers were all dead and a Palpatine usurped their name.
"Why do we trust this Force anyway?"
How dare he not take a sin off for “hello there”
They needed to show Amidalas dead body with the pregnant belly just in case there was empire spies to keep the illusion that the babies didn't survive either
I was born a few months after The Empire Strikes Back first came out, so the prequels sort of helped me enter the Star Wars universe...well, that and the Ewok stuff. So I did love Jar Jar Binks, never knew he was so hated until years later.

It's an injustice that a sin wasn't removed for Ian Mcdiarmid's performance as Palpy. He ate every scene he was in
With one exception....
@@bartoszl5082 "No...No... you will die" yeah ok

“Shhh quiet I’m trying to watch the electric bubble show, dude!” Is my all time favorite single sin.
Wait. The council changed their mind about training Anakin because of the droid ship thing? I never knew that. I always just wondered why they changed their minds.
if u read the books the 5 Force Priestess' predicted and had a hand in it. though never stated in film, SW fans knew. it was predestined for Anakin to be trained. nothing to do specifically with the droid control ship. though it helped. just like Qui-Gons force ghost voice. where do you think he was learning it from. the 5 force priestess'
Yoda said he still did not approve and only allowed it for Qui Gon's death wish, it's a whole scene in the movie.
I didn't even pay attention to that since you knew he was gonna get trained no matter what due to the plot requiring it.
Prequels we're legendary. Episode three still holds the record for longest cinematic sword fight
Fun fact at 46:06 they originally were gonna have the head fall out of the helmet but they decided to not to
If you look closely at 45:38 you can see the shadow of the head flying too
@@MolkoKillStyle was about to say that
29:02 watching this on 0.5% speed is like listening to a stoned conversation lol
You dwell way too long on the "queen not being part of a successional monarchy"-thing despite it being clearly stated in EP1 that the queen of naboo is elected. You even included the scene when Palpatine introduces Padme to the senate as being "recently elected" earlier.
The problem is that the word "queen" specifically refers to a member of a hereditary monarchy and not an elected leader.
There are different names for elected positions like president or prime minister...
Well maybe in a galaxy far far away the word has different connotations or the historic Nabooians had reasons to want a head of state with more absolute powers without the restrictions of checks and balances yet still with the limitations of election terms. Ultimately it's just a word and there even is an on-screen explanation.
One of major issues I have with this trilogy is the treatment of Nute Gunray. He was the main villain of Episode I, despite serving Darth Sidious, but he was the lead villain in the movie itself. In Episode II, he became nothing more then a supporting villain at best. In Episode III, he was nothing more then a background villain. Despite this, he is one of only two villains - the other being Darth Sidious - who appeared in all three prequel movies. They should have kept him as main villain and have him killed by Anakin as such. While I am huge fan of both Christopher Lee and Dooku, Dooku to me was a totally unneeded addition to this trilogy.
You forgot about Jar-Jar, who is a main factor in ep1, and then barely in 2, and doesn't even get a voiceline in ep3, yet is a huge factor if not single-handedly responsible for the downfall of the senate after all making the Chancellor the Supreme 'Emergency Power' Overlord Emperor. And that's not counting plans to have him be the big manipulative villain. A lot of characters set in episode 1 and large things got completely shafted and should have been properly kept to the end for the impact they had. (No, actually sincere there, regardless of how sincere you are about Nute, both should have had more planned, but I suspect the fact both ended up racist charictures made Lucas shift gears without clutch and dump them out the side of the plotbus)
@@j.a.8224 Main reason Jar-Jar's role was diminished was all the negativity fans had for him.
Why are you a fan of lee? You know he lied about his service in WW2. He lied about most of his life.
@@user-ef3nr1cn4r That is absolutely not important for his amazing acting career.
I can tell the CGI aged real well when I turn back to my computer after not paying atention and thinking its the CGI cartoon until I see Obiwan with a pan over shot.
When you look back at the romance between padme and anakin you realize how terrible it was. It was really creepy seeing how he acted around her
Creepy, but made sense. This was a guy sheltered all his life and literally was encouraged to do the exact opposite. Of course he's going to be extremely awkward and borderline creepy lol, most would in that given circumstance. But people always seem to brush over this.
@@sentinal_entity Sure. What doesn't make sense is that Padme is not creeped out by his behaviour, but instead falls for him.
@@glykera I'm more creeped out by Padme, it's like she was a closeted pedo not trying hard enough to just say no. For reference, Anakin was 9 in TPM and Padme was 14. In AotC Anakin mentions that this is the first time he's seeing her in 10 years; so since TPM. And they get fucking married by the end of the film. How do you harbor feelings for a 9 year old boy strong enough to last 10 years AND get married almost immediately after seeing him again!? Anakin the slave child turned repressed monk warrior was emotionally stunted, it's not that surprising he's thirsty and awkward at 19. Padme the Queen of Naboo has no excuse.
@@glykera Sidenote: I did rewatch AotC recently and there is a scene where Anakin says something like "I've never stopped thinking about you" and Padme said she thought about him often too, reciprocating his feelings. But also that she's a senator, and this wouldn't be right. It's not like she fell in love starting at the beginning of AotC.
Lucas really should have hired some writers/advisors with experience writing romantic dialogue and story lines. The "nobody would ever say that" sins hit the nail on the head as far as Anakin and Padme are concerned.
What bothers me the most is how each movie has it's own major villain that we've NEVER seen before, they just pull Dooku and grievous out their ass with no explanation
Maybe jedi and sith can hide their presence from each other the same way dragon ball characters do it, by repressing their aura.
Easter egg. It has everything to do with the Jedi Temple, mainly wjat it was built over. An ancient Sith temple, that lessens their force anilities, while boosting Palpatine's abilities.
This allows.him to hide.in plain sight.

"Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose". That's good advice for anything, of value to lose.
Poor Jar Jar. The actor who played him really poured his heart into the character just to get mercilessly bullied by the fan base.
ah man, i saw that video of him talking about the turn his life took after the movie... really heartbreaking stuff, and i have gone way easier on jar jar as a character after getting a glimpse at the human being behind him. similar thing with the kid who played anakin.
i know every fanbase has a section of really entitled, toxic, downright abusive zealots, but i remember the initial reactions to the prequel trilogy, and now having seen the reaction to the sequel trilogy... i think star wars has some of the worst. what used to be a safe haven for scifi nerds all over the world to come together over their shared love for this universe has become more and more hostile, to the point my girlfriend and i were afraid to talk about star wars even with each other, because were just that accustomed to having everyone lash out at us just for, you know, having our own opinions about it. id rather have the snotty "youre not smart enough to understand it" rick and morty fans (who still suck, by the way) over some of the things ive seen with the star wars fanbase.
#notallstarwarsfans, etc
Bravery isn’t having no fears, it’s overcoming fears
Finally getting round to this. First movie - Talking about Padme waiting until Anakin is old enough to see his Japor Snippet made me laugh more than it probably should have.
I've never understood why "a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away" alien robots would use American slang created in 1941 during WW2. "Roger, Roger" was derived from the original military phonetic alphabet. "A" was Alpha, "B" was Bravo, "R" was Roger. Roger was used by radio operators and stood for "received" as in "message received."
