Chris Stuckmann reviews Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, starring Hayden Christensen, Natalie Portman, Ewan McGregor, Ian McDiarmid, Samuel L. Jackson, Jimmy Smits, Frank Oz, Anthony Daniels, Christopher Lee. Directed by George Lucas. - Zábava
My favorite scene is when Mace gets thrown out the windu.
ayyyoooo!
NaSir Osorno Mmm! That is a powerful Force Choke!
He went out like a sucka!
ayyy
+Colt Krieger Do you even force?
I think we can all agree that Ewan McGregor is the best part of the prequels.
Jake The Snake A Wan Wars Trilogy
Liam Neeson was also pretty good in Phantom Menace, mostly because Obi Wan was a whiny annoying character during that movie
Jake The Snake I love Obi-Wan in the prequels, he's my favorite character!
I think the music is the best part.
Jake The Snake Yeah along with Ian McDarmid
The reason why obi wan said “don’t try it” is because he knew anakin was going to use the same maneuver he did against Maul, and he knew how to counter it unlike anakin
That’s a stretch
@@jacookie9707 that is literally the reason? Obi wan was in the sinilar situation and caught maul off guard. Obi is in mauls place and is on guard, and he didnt want to kill him even though he had to
Only reason I say it’s a stretch because Obi and anakin were at different positions when they went for the attempt. It does appear that anakin went to flip over Obi which is what kenobi does to maul. Maybe not as much of a stretch 🤷🏻♂️
Annakin never faught Maul. What are you talking about?
@@Zino117 are you deliberatly trying to be stupid?
I disagree with the ending. I thought the ANAKIN vs. Obi-wan was the best/most emotional scene in star wars
It was. Period.
I loved them so seeing there battle on the big screen blew my mind. Luke vs Vader in return I also loved
Alex Zhoff yikes
Omar Gillespie the fight in force awakens was a joke 😂😂 looked like too desperate virgins having sex. Also what the fuck does MMA have to do with Star Wars 🤦♂️fucks sake 😂
Omar Gillespie I bet you think the guards vs kylo and Rey in last Jedi was good aswell lmao
I feel bad for Hayden. He did everything George wanted him to do, and still gets shit on.
Joseph Underwood same, In my opinion I like him way better than Luke
Yeah yeah... great actor. You can tell by all the great films he has been in since.... Wait....
He wasn’t even that bad it doesn’t rlly show it’s only his lines
Joseph Underwood anakin is one of my fav characters
Timothy Jahn jumper was a good movie he was in and don’t listen to rotten tomatoes you know it’s fake
You've gotta admit, good or bad, the lines from this movie were ICONIC and a MEME TREASURE TROVE lol
TzokoliT Hello there
FIYA THE EMERGENCY BOOSTA ENGINES
That doesn’t make the movie good though
DO NOT WANT
Not in a good way
I remember some kid yelling "the millennium falcon!" then somebody else "oh shit!". Everyone cheered afterwards. The benefits of watching the midnight showing for these movies. That kid was the man of the hour lol
I would say "and then everyone clapped" but you already had that part in there
@@user-xi8yh8qi9j Huh?
What
That happened to me too. I also screamed out "THERE'S THE MILLENNIUM FALCON!!!" and everyone laughed and applauded.
@@harrythesailor3622 Be
Hayden Christensen's reaction to Padme being pregnant was actually phenomenal acting, I thought. Very few words, but he conveyed how joyous and how much of a concern it was at the same time.
Anakin: You're so beautiful
Padme: It's only because I'm so in love
Me: What?
Funny.
Anakin:"No, it's because I'm so in love with YOU.
Me:"What? UUGGHH
+Bryan Leong
So love has blinded you! XD
+Alexander Lowery What? UUUGH
A+ dialogue from George Lucas.
The choreographing in the final battle gives me the impression of master and pupil who know each other’s strategy’s inside and out
Fully agree, that was how I saw it also.
All the choreographed lightsaber fights are way better than any from the original series. That is how lightsaber fights are supposed to be. The original trilogy fights look like me and my brother fucking around in the backyard. Not sure how you could think Anakin and Obi-Wan’s duel isn’t good.
@@jhupp8707 lol, the Duel in the original Star Wars is better than all of the Prequel Duels combined.
There is no emotional Weight to any of the Prequel Duels whatsoever.
SackAusStahl ok boomer
J Hupp I don’t think it’s good because it’s overly choreographed, and goes on for way too long.
The prequels have likely meme potential. Star Wars as a whole but the prequels is probably highest
The prequels themselves are treasure
The prequels themselves are shit.
@@shitstainman8231 Your life is sh.. Oh wait you don't have one.
@@wooshmeifurgay7452 Yeah. I don’t have a life.
Prequels r shit
Finally someone who voiced the weird looking Natalie Portman in that scene!! I've been thinking that since 2005. Thank you Chris you saved my sanity.
Basically just Portman with out her make up on.
I think it was a reshoot as Chris suggests. I heard Lucas say (in a commentary I think) that originally he didn't want any lovey-dovey scenes between Anakin and Padme due to the poor reception for the love scenes in Episode II. However, after viewing a rough cut of Episode III, he decided that he needed at least a brief scene of their relationship seeming idyllic before it collapses over the course of the film. So Lucas added the balcony love scene.
No, that’s just Chris making a silly observation that doesn’t relate to anything.
I liked Revenge Of The Sith
Captain Michael J. Caboose Don't ever go backwards
fun fact, force lighting is basically pure hate being thrown out, so Palpitene had his pure anger and hatred reflected back at him.
Hey bud
P.C. Principal
Me too it’s great!
I disagree.
Hayden isn’t a bad actor. He was given bad lines, and the way he executed them was the way Lucas had him do it.
And palpatine used the force to kill padme in order to complete anakin’s path to the dark side
Not to mention Palpatine also fed her life force to Anakin in order to keep him alive long enough to repair him.
Bad direction too. The delivery of his lines were also terrible for the most part. Especially “I HATE YOU!!!”
It’s a combination of all of the above. And yes. He’s a terrible actor. Show me evidence of otherwise.
I was rewatching them in preparation for episode 9 and I also thought Palpatine killed her. Cuz then how would he know that she's dead
Brad Bell How would you have said it?
It’s really George Lucas’ fault for telling him how to deliver the lines.
That fight on mustafar is still by far the best Star Wars fight sequence out of all the films
I mean, in terms of duel quality episode 1 is better and in terms of story telling ESB and ROTJ are better
@@maxotto9877 you’re going to talk in the middle of a heated battle? Not really realistic
Phantom menace has best lightsaber sequence

*Anakin:* Can you PLEASE stop monologuing and just kill me? This lava is really slow and painful
*Obi-wan:* Nah. I’m just going to leave you here, so you can be revived and terrorize the galaxy.
there's actually a theory that Padme died because Palpatine used the life-saving technique to siphon her life into Anakin's.
***** yep. Not saying if it's true or false, but it's a more interesting story than dying of a broken heart, AND it makes sense with the lore.
That actually makes sense. I hate to be that guy, but.......if we're looking at it from a purely medical standpoint, if a very pregnant woman was choked, that would cause serious trauma and possibly a premature delivery. But it wouldn't kill her.
I've always thought that Palpatine, as usual, was manipulating things behind the scenes. He obviously didn't want his new apprentice to be distracted by anything. So, even if Palpatine didn't directly kill Padme, he was still involved in using the Force to drain her life from her and, in turn, empower Vader more.
Yeah. Instinctively, the audience would assume that Palpatine would be referring to Obi-Wan's impending arrival. But it's a double meaning: with Padme dead and Obi-Wan soon to be exiled, the Emperor was no longer concerned about any more of his plans being derailed.
There's a better theory that it's because George Lucas had become a clumsy and lazy writer, and since he'd previously lied about having written out the back story of the originals before filming them, he now needed this fear of Padme dying trope to explain Anakin's turn to the dark side because he didn't actually have a reason. So instead of coming up with one that fit the fact that Leia in episode 6 clearly knew her mother before she died, he continued the prequels incongruence and took the lazy way out, and re-wrote the history of the character.
***** I thought it was bad that Star Wars was going to Mickey Mouse at first, but as long as it's out of George's hands, it's a good thing.
He doesn't care about the story of Star Wars the way the fans do. He only cares about the technology, and what he can do with it, and showing this great galaxy he can create visually. That's the big difference between Lucas and the fans -- his motivation for Star Wars and the majority of the fans' (especially the original fans) motivations are completely different.
After watching the beginning, does anyone else wanna see him recreate the movie?
That would be incredible
BBSNYPUR That would be awesome!!!
AtticWarrior1994 I was just about to post the same thing. I thought it was an actual clip until Anakin talked.
BBSNYPUR It'll be Oscar Winner for the Best Montage, Best Directing and Best Voice Acting))))) (I don't care the last nomination doesn't exist)
Сергей Лобов Don't forget Best Visual Effects...
I get hating the movies themselves, but come on, guys. Leave the actors alone.
Most them were pretty good. Hayden was not
Why? If you went to a restaurant and got a bad meal, you would criticise the chef and it would be deserved.
If you do a bad job, then take the criticism and make yourself better.
LobsterPuncher The chef would be the director which is more open to criticism imo. The actors are more like the waiters.
LobsterPuncher big difference between criticism and straight up harassment though. Daisy Ridley and Kelly Marie Tran wouldn’t delete their online presence because of some criticism, that was pure harassment
This is true. All the actors in both prequels and sequels did really well for what they were given
I'm gonna say it. The anakin and obi wan dual at the ending of this movie is the best lightsaber dual in the entire saga. These are jedi KNIGHTS. You want them to have some serious swordsmanship. Shoot me but in the original trilogy it just looks like 2 guys swinging swords.
The problem with the dual was that it felt like a ballet recital than an actual fight. Despite luke and Vader's fight not looking as choreographed, you could feel the impact of every blow. It also told a etter story with the expressions, the pauses etc... Anakin and Obi Wan's fight didn't feel real
@@travismccutchan3144 it's not that he didn't realize it, it's that the fight wasn't executed to look like that
Vincent 2099 except it was lol. The reason why Vader’s and Luke’s fight looked that way was because 1.) Luke was not a trained fighter and 2.) the technological limitations of the early 80’s.
thanks man, im agree with you, jedi knight battle or even lightsaber battle should be like episode 3, remember they are jedi knight n they know the flow of the force so they dont use brute strengh in battle, im actually like why they look like dance when in battle because they use the force to be aware of their surrounding, thats what make jedi knight and sith so fearfull, if you want mere lighsaber swing just give lighsaber to mere human, in the hand of jedi and sith lightsaber became nightmare weapon, can you imagine mere human block laser from droids? exactly
@@Vincent-ld2bp prequals are the reason why star wars is a space Opera rather then just another sci-fi
The best Star Wars prequel.
+Demon Rantz By fucking miles!
DFizzlio Yep.
...is not saying much.
+Ryan Golden Yeah that's true.
+Ryan Golden I actually watched the film now and I loved it.
I appreciate Chris's honesty; he acknowledges what he likes and what he doesn't like. Too many people want to just label the prequels as shit and never say anything positive, so Chris, my hats off to you.
He still can't give some of the deeper scenes the credit they deserve. The final moment between Anakin and Obi Wan deserves a lot more attention in any review for this film. The latest (episode 49) of Jedi Alliance here on yt brings that up beautifully. I had chills listening to them describing Hayden's acting and line delivery in those final moments.
Josef Hautala Also the higher ground bullshit. 15 minutes of lightsabre battle and all you need to win is to step on a slope before the opponent?
Adam " had chills listening to them describing Hayden's acting and line delivery ". I think you're the first person to ever complement Hayden Christiansen's acting.
TheMrBugio Are you knowledgable battle tactics?
*****
He was using Bonetti's defense, Anakin should have attacked with Capa Ferro. But then again Obi Wan probably knew Thibault which cancels Capa Ferro, unless of course Anakin knew Agrippa, which used many times during the duel anyway.
I actually really liked anakin immediately submitting himself to palpatine after killing windu. He was desperate and was forced to make a choice, Its as if he has no option left since he already killed the second strongest jedi in the order and he cant turn back on his decision.
blind tree man I love revenge of the sith don’t care what the haters say. I know there’s flaws and cheese but I saw he same in the originals which aren’t as flawless as people think. I think the story and the characters in the prequels were a great addition. Just the execution was poor.
Nice pfp
Gemma James honestly the story was the worst part for me in the prequels. It made no sense and everyone was a moron who didn’t know what they were doing
Atticus Smith the clone wars and rise of the empire is a great story. And does anyone really know what they’re doing that’s a pretty lame argument tbh
Gemma James I’m talking about the movies, I love both of the clone wars shows but the movies are just dumpster fires
I always guessed that the screwed up face is actually Palpatine's real face, and when he used force lightning on Windu, he drained the power to keep his disguise or youth intact.
Like Darth Zash.
@@xenon811711:31 That got me laughing the
way he said that!
"Special effects are just a tool, a means of telling a story. People have a tendency to confuse them as an end to themselves. A Special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing." - George Lucas

I love all the "Plinkett" references in the comments. Ha. Quality.

I find it hard to accept that this movie came out 10 years ago
***** I dont know why the prequals came out. Jk fkin greedy little pigs
Arkham Knight now I feel a whole lot older
Arkham Knight Ugh I was in middle school when RotS came out, now I'm out of college. God time flies.
warwatcher91 Yeah, I also can't believe it's been ten years. I was in Middle school at the time and a huge star wars fan.
Arkham Knight I find it hard to understand just how much of a predictable reveal you were.
This will forever be my favorite Star Wars film. It truly was the story the George Lucas wanted to tell. It came out in the perfect time in my life ❤️
The story Lucas wanted to tell was in A new hope, prequels were an addition to the lore ,
May 19th, the month and date, and 2005 is the year when it made it's debut up on the big screen in the box office. The actual movie in the prequels worth watching, and no more talk of
politics, senate delegations, or trade negotiations. Just the
real movie worth seeing.
I wish instead of yelling “NOoOo” at the end Vader tried to strangle palpatine before realizing it wouldn’t change anything. Would have been a much better final scene for him
James Merkle Padme should’ve chilled on Alderaan with Leia for a year being hidden by Bail Organa then get killed by Sidious’ goons as to A) live up to Leia’s speech in ROTJ and B) not tell Vader she is alive
And then Palpatine electrocutes him.
That's exactly what happens in the canon marvel vader comics #1
My view of the Anakin/Obi-Wan fight is that these are two Jedi who are perfect. They know exactly what the other one is going to do so it's basically choreographed to them. They are so in tune with the force they are probably almost viewing everything in slow mo.
Patrick Garvey agreed. thats how i always viewed that fight too. just wish theres was more dialogue
Patrick Garvey If they were "perfect" the duel would be as a Samurai Iai-do duel. They look at each other, analyse the others posture, energy, aura, everything. And all of a sudden they both strike at the same time and one of them falls. But Lucas isn't good enough to do that kind of scene and make it exciting and tense to watch.
Patrick Garvey Nah.
Patrick Garvey
I agree, I very much liked the action between the two. These are two highly skilled Jedi fighting who are both familiar with each other's fighting styles during the peak time of the republic for the Jedi order. Fast, constantly checking each other for weaknesses in their stances. Very fun to watch.
Patrick Garvey Well, for me the duel sadly looks like Luigi fights Mario with lightsabers, with all that jumping on moving platforms across lava...very much like the dreadful droid-factory-scene in Ep 2 its too videogamey and lacks all tension, due to visual overkill and lack of "restraint", dialogue and, well, proper build-up in the previous-movie to make one actually care ...
Ian McDiarmid kills it as Sidious/Palpatine in ROTS as well as Ewan as Obi Wan
Hayden is also good I thought
Pantera is shit.
But Ian needs to work on his lightsaber skills.
HorizonEngine05 episode 3 was the best of the prequels the duels were epic,soundtrack,effects Hayden was better in this one Rip Christopher Lee (count dooku) 2015
@@johnvincent1823 fuck off
Although Empire is the best overall, my personal favorite is still ROTS
Iv watched it more times than any other star wars movie
People slag of disney star wars and to large extent they're right but rogue one was awesome though
As much as the Sequel Trilogy is hated by most Star Wars fans, I still think the Sequel Trilogy is overall better than the Prequel Trilogy.
Kylo Helmet the force awakens was the only good one
@@dutchvanderlinde5218 Maybe, maybe not..but you could also say Revenge Of The Sith is the only good Prequel. The difference is The Last Jedi and The Rise Of Skywalker, despite being far from perfect, are still better than The Phantom Menace and Attack Of The Clones..those first two Prequel Trilogy movies are damn near unwatchable cringefests, snoozefests, and CGI filled slop.

I don’t care what anyone says Obi-Wan vs Anakin is the best fight in film

Dude... wow
Chewjacka it’s so fucking boring, just drags on way to long
@@Nickster88 it's still the best out of all star wars battle
In all of film? Lmao you haven't watched a lot of movies kid.
Honestly my favourite scene of any star wars movie was when Obi Wan confronts Anakin, I thought hayden actually did a pretty good job in his line delivery and the scene had so much climactic emotion. “You will not take her from me!” “You have done that yourself.”
Even the way he said it, you could tell he was still trying to somewhat restrain himself from absolutely losing it.
People also laughed in the theater I was at Vader's Nooooooo scene. Hell, I was one of them. The scene was great up to that point. A lot of tension, then all of a sudden that goofy cartoon Nooooooooo. Just killed it.
Gleep Wurp even though luke did the no in empire what’s your point that luke ruined that scene aswell with his nooooo
Gemma James Luke’s was way more cringe too
lil steez yeh ot fanboys are delusional pretentious freaks
lil steez No, Lukes single yell of horror was way more convincing of a display of horror and fear and more rational due to the circumstances. Hell, it had better acting than almost all of the prequels.
Mr. Guy Productions no it didn’t it was awful that’s why it’s been parodied so many times all the no’s were equally awful. And as for the acting in the prequels it was hardly better in the originals both had bad dialogue and bad acting it’s just people only cares about great acting and dialogue when the prequels came out when the originals was just as bad. Infact the best acting in any of Star Wars is from Ewan and Ian in the prequels simple as. The only bad shit in the prequels was anakin and padme their dialogue and acting sucked atleast together. They were fine with other characters.
Imagine this film is done by a more skilled director...
倪传历 He isn't the best director, but he a fantastic writer and coming up with story. If it wasn't for Lucas we wouldn't have SW, Indy, and Pixar.
倪传历 Agreed! I love the movies, but there´s room for huge improvements.
Lucas is good at coming up with ideas, but not at writing and directing.
***** Fantastic writer? Are you fucking nuts.
Senna Jordan My hands was going faster than my head. I meant to post average to good writer and fantastic story teller. There was some ok writing, but he doesn't like to write with others, that killed 1-3.

Revenge of The Sith is my favourite Star Wars movie. Period. It's just something within it's deep, dark nature that makes it so great...
Mirage only cause it's "dark" don't mean it's the best
I just love Anakin’s slow decent into frustration and darkness in the Clone Wars series.
Unfortunately it backtracked episode 2 back when he had already fallen
I would LOVE to see revenge of the Sith 4 hour cut
Me too
They should release an extended edition.
And I would love to see a 0.0 hour cut of the previous two films.
Have you seen the blackened mantel edit of the prequels? It's gives a glimpse into what these films could have been.
YOU WILL NOT TAKE HER FROM MEH 😬
Finally see the Wookie planet? No, we first saw Kashyyyk in a The Holiday Special! Please review that Chris!

Jake Tibbs What are you talking about. George Lucas came to my house and burned all my copies of the Star Wars Holiday Special. Then to snuff the fire he peed on the ashes. So I don't remember anything from that show.
No, that movie is worse than The Clone Wars film (not show). Even Lucas himself hates it.
Jake Tibbs Considering everything outside of the main trilogies ----except the Clone Wars movie and show/Rebels---- is not canon as deemed by Disney, it is technically the first time.
Jake Tibbs Shhhhh. _* whispers *_ We don't talk about The Dark Special.
Padme “Anni you killed younglings”
Annikan “I don’t like sand”
Ps: I actually liked the movie for the most part.
RE: Natalie looking weird in that “I’m so in love with you” scene- I think she filmed V for Vendetta right after this and shaved her head. So, it could be a reshoot and the placement of that huge ass wig? I’ve always thought she didn’t look like herself as well. 🤷🏼♀️ 😂

“Empire Strikes Back” may have been a better “movie” beginning to end, but “ Revenge of the Sith” is still my favorite Star Wars movie of all time. To this day, I still can go back and just watch epic scenes from the movie and not get bored.
Zero 8880 damn right I can watch the prequels over and over without getting board but I couldn’t do that with the OT (not disparaging the OT though)
@Andy Salter Agreed with the guys above. The OT are better movies but the prequels are much more entertaining. ROTS is my favourite SW movie.
@Andy Salter fix your fucking English
@Andy Salter I suppose so. I guess what i was trying to say is that the story and the world-building of the prequles were pretty entertaining despite them being worse movies than the OT. Still i though atleast 3 was good while 1,2 were average at best and even pretty bad at some moments.
I disagree with your opinion on the Mustafar fight. The fight was heavily choreographed yes but the entire time I felt both of their lives were at stake. I didn't see two men just whipping around lightsabers like assholes. I saw two jedi in their prime fighting the best fight of their lives.
il100374 The way the fight scene flows and each actor wields their lightsaber is a far cry from the Phantom Menace which looked way more choreographed. This fight just feels heavy. It feels emotional and intense.
il100374 I agree with all of those points. Also adding on to that, Anakin and Obi-Wan have fought together for over ten years, and they just went through three years of intense war. They know each other's moves and fighting style, so it make sense that the lightsaber battle would be longer.
This is actually my favorite duel in the whole saga. It's heavy, emotional, intense, and I really feel like the fate of the whole galaxy is resting on the outcome.
Totally agree with you
il100374 It was way too fucking long. No reason it kept going and going and going, and getting more and more ridiculous.
Well, that's your opinion :) I love Revenge of the Sith, despite any problems I may have with it.

Anakins & Obi-Wan lightsaber duel is one the best dues in all of Star Wars, seeing them fight period was tense since we've seen how much they cared for each other in the past. George Lucas way of writing is great he let's us know how all characters really feel in other movies sometimes directors don't let us know & we have to make our own assumption that might be wrong or misleading.
you sound effects noises are hilarious XD
Your* (sorry xisuma 😂)
xisumavoid Hey look it's xisumavoid =)
You should read the Star Wars novels, X. They add alot to the story and makes the story much better.
LaminCookie Right. Chris might not be aware that Palpatine messed up face is actual real face and that gentleman face from before is just a mask using the force. Palpatine delved deep into dark side and those who do that usually get physical deformation. This is why he was not surprised. He no longer needed to hide from his facade.
xisumavoid WHY ARENT YOU PLAYING HERMITCRAFT
The way the Obi-Wan vs Anakin fight should've went:
-Anakin forces chokes out Padme.
-He and Obi-Wan begin their fight, which happens entirely on the landing pad that it started on.
-Every time there's an opening to land a killing blow, Obi-Wan hesitates, not wanting to harm his best friend.
-Anakin takes advantage of these hesitations and tries to retaliate.
-Obi-Wan barely dodges one of these hits, taking him out of the fight but still alive.
-Anakin savours his victory and announces his new empire before attempting the final strike.
-A shot is heard and Anakin's face grimaces. He turns around and sees that Padme, with tears in her eyes, had shot him in the back.
-Now fully consumed by the dark side, he feels nothing but anger as he makes his way to his former love to kill her.
-Just in time, Obi-Wan Force Throws his lightsaber, severing Anakin's arm. At the same time, Padme fires another desperate laser blast in self-defense, which grazes and scars Anakin's face.
-Anakin screams in agony, Padme falls to her knees in shock, and Obi-Wan limps away full of grief.
I love it. This is a great fight
I liked the way Anakin turned to Vader but here is what I would've liked it to be:
The Jedi Order realizes that Anakin and Padme are married, they confront Anakin in his home. (that apartment like place where Padme and Anakin lives )Mace Windu and 4 other Jedi tell Anakin that Jedi are not allowed to love, Anakin pleads for mercy but the Jedi Order refuses and they make them separate against his and hers will.
Anakin had enough, he was first not allowed to be a Jedi Master, he was told to spy on Palpatine, and now Padme and him were separated. Anakin refuses for this to happen and gets angry, he turns on his Lightsaber and duels Mace, and the 4 other Jedi. Anakin knocks 3 Jedi out by throwing a big metal thingy at them (IDK what he threw, maybe a statue of Yoda) And force chokes one other thus realizing he has new powers, Sith like.
He and Mace duel in Anakin's home, Padme watches. Anakin goes all out, using every skill he has with a Lightsaber, then he cuts Mace's hand off, and
+kar muts
Mace gets thrown out off the Windu (Ha get it? No?) Anakin just realizing what he done, he leaves his home and goes to Palpatine for help.
Palpatine notices something wrong with Anakin and he asks why. Anakin is nervous, so he keeps quiet. Then Palpatine decides to tell the Story of Darth Plagueis and tells them about how he can save lives and not himself blah blah.. He also tells Anakin that HE knows the force, even the Dark Side. Palpatine (just like how he says it in the actual movie) tells Anakin to join the Dark Side of the force so he can protect or save Padme.
Then Anakin is thinking in his head "screw the Jedi man, they don't trust me, they don't even want me to have a life man screw them, dark side gangster is where it's at". Then Palpatine does he is Darth Vader blah blah, Order 66, blah blah, kill younglings, eat Jedi burger blah blah...
IDK, I'm not sure if my story even made sense, :P
+Red Ronin IX Best fan version of a prequel scene I've ever heard
+kar muts I like that version too
16:20 Obi Wan knew Anakin was going to try the move he pulled on Maul, that's why he said that
I always interpreted Palpatine's trasformation as him revealing his true form. Like, his normal face was just a mask he used to hide in plain sight. I assumed he used the force to maintain the disguise. It melted away during the fight because he needed the force energy to keep fighting. Lightning would not do that to his skin anyway.
Ah...The Episode III opening. I love it so much, and is my favorite Star Wars opening.
Only because the music is so prominent and this was my favorite overall score in the series, but the first Star Wars has that scene in it where Leia has her back and forth with Vader and it recalls the feeling of heroism in those first three... Idk
My favourite too
Alex Bernal I don't really think it's that great, it's just that it's so much better than the other prequel openings.
The time people put into making CGI is equally as much as the time they do with practical effects.
.... actually revenge of the sithe is the only one that starts with combat... all the others are peaceful but building to battle... well revenge of the sithe as well as STAR WARS
You forgot to mention ROTS has one of the best move soundtracks in the star wars franchise (if not the best).
ESB has the best. ROTS basically copied the music for the final battle
liam holloway dude what are you? 8? Lmao
liam holloway yeah he was speaking bunch of nonsense, but why so offensive?
Just calling it like it is he clearly isn’t a Star Wars fan just another social media cretin jumping on the bandwagon
liam holloway dude what are you? 8? Lmao
Obi-Wan’s emotional anguish over Anakin’s turn after their duel was done really well. Much better than Padme saying “Anakin, you’re breaking my heart”.
Fun fact if you listen insanely close when the helmet is being put on you can hear Anakin scream “ Padme help me”
MrNerdStrike nope it’s just the sound of his mask
Jeremy Reed no he does say padme help me
He really doesn't.
@@darthmortem585 You can clearly hear words being said in that scene.
@@gin.590 its clearly machine whirring
I agree on most points, however:
- Anakins turn to the dark side makes sense to me. Windus line "He is too dangerous to be kept alive" shows Anakin that the Jedi are not that different from the Sith. Palpatine said the exact same thing to Anakin after the death of Dooku ("He was too dangerous to be kept alive). Where is the line between good and evil? If there is no clear distinction between the two, why not choose the side that allows you to save your loved one? I mean, Yoda response to Anakins dream was "Train yourself to let go... of everything you fear to lose".
- The battle at the end was perfect for me. It showed how powerful the Jedi were in their prime. They are supernatural beings...I had no problem with the hole choreography. Luke and Vader had more emotional impact. That for sure.
- I think you missed a really cool moment during the opera scene: Palpatines smile while he delivers the line "How ironic...". He says that line as if he was talking to himself. Just to show how egoistic and narcissist he is. Especially because he was the one who killed Darth Plagueis. It was not just some old Sith legend. He was talking about something that he did.
- Another cool element: The rank of master allowed the Jedi to enter the forbidden part of the library, where all old Sith-artifacts were. Anakin hoped to enter that part of the temple to get some information on how to save Padme. So his anger and disappointment becomes even more clear, when the rank of masters was denied.
"If there is no clear distinction between the two" Bro, sure the Jedi's morals are questionable at best but even an idiot can see that Palpatine is evil and that the Jedi at least try to be good. He literally send Anakin to kill all Jedis in the Temple, including the younger ones in exchange for a power he doesn't even really know exists. He says he sees through the lies of the Jedi but is too blind to see that Palpatine is just using him. I like Episode 3 just fine, it's better than any Disney Star Wars, but Anakin is a total idiot in it. Who in their right mind would think your wife, who clearly is a good person, would stay with you after you fucked shit up so bad and slaughtered so many people? And I don't think there's anything wrong with Yoda's line, in life you are going to lose things you love and there is nothing you can do about it.
Also, from where do you got your last point? I watched the film recently and must have completely missed it, now don't tell me that it is from some expanded universe crap. I do agree with your other points though.
@Knavire At least they don't kill innocent people.
@Knavire First point doesn't count since we are talking about the prequels and Anakins decision to turn, so no death star. Second, do you have any examples? From the movies, no cartoons or books. And with Jedi I literally mean JEDI, no senate
@Knavire No, I specifically replied to the original comment (not by you) soley talking about Anakin turning to the dark side in Episode 3, you know, the movie this video is about.
@Knavire It doesn't exists in a void, nobody said that so stop pulling stuff out of your ass. This video is about Episode 3, the original comment only referenced story points from Episode 3 and so did my reply.
I think Natalie Portman's face looked different in the balcony scene because it had something to do with her also working on V for Vendetta around the same time.
GameStation3 That's........Not a bad theory.
Her head looks HUGE in sime scenes.
Mr X But hey, that's just a theory.
cormano64 A Natalie Portman Theory, thanks for watching.
cormano64 and welcome again to the SUPER AMAZING END CARD TOURNAMENT!
Anakin is emotionally damaged which explains his stiffness, so the ”bad acting” does not disturb me.
krumbergify yeah that's not why lol
Yeah but they could of made him kinda hesitate in a bit, after pledges the "what have I done" doesn't sound right
Kylo Ren is emotionally damaged and he isn't stiff at all. Adam Driver delivers a great performance. The stiffness is just bad acting, bad dialogue and poor directing by papa Lucas.
@@Isaactheking17 idk i can kinda get over the stale acting when i remember that anakin is a complete virgin who's never talked to a grill before and has always been taught to push away his emotions and doesnt know how handle what he feels which is why he sounds awkward at times
@@fontainus7302 kylo Ren is *NOT* as damaged as Anakin was not in any of the three movies he was in Kylo Ren is a student of Luke that turned his back on the light for the sole purpose of doing it because he wanted to. Anakin was someone who was born into slavery, left his mother, The only person who cared about him up untill that point l, Obi-wan ignores the fact that Anakin misses her, catches feelings for a girl, and knows he has to push it down, has constant visions of his mother dying in his arms, which he is forced to ignore as well, when he sees her finally it's against his orders so there's something else to have on his mind, then she dies in his arms after seeing her for the first time for a few seconds in 10 years, then gets married and has to hide it from everyone he knows, then has visions of HER dying and is conflicted every night with this
I disagree with your analysis on the end battle being more like a dance. These are two of the best jedi in the galaxy. Whom were best friends. It makes sense they know each other moves to a T. Allowing them to frantically block , and attack each other.
Sometimes they spin the lightsabers for the sake of looking cool and flashy without even attacking each other.
Krikites I laughed at that part so much
Then how come most their swings arent even aimed at each other? They're a good few feet away and are there just to get blocked?
I can honestly over look that but the fight is simply too long.
@@bruhvinski The fight has actually been deconstructed frame by frame and found to be mostly sound. Sometimes things are done for the cool factor that wouldn't work in a real sword fight, but so did the originals, even in Empire at times. The takeaway though is that it's actually a mostly accurate fight and the speed at which they perform these legitimate sword fighting techniques is somewhat remarkable.
If you ever want to see that breakdown, it's on Shadiversity here on CZcams. Very long though.
@@SkySoFew Most of their swings are aimed at each other and utilize legitimate sword fighting technique. It's been deconstructed frame by frame by Shadiversity. Worth checking out.
There's also explanations for some of the stranger moves performed within the Star Wars universe canon, it's just not ever explained in the movies.
"Holy crap..my face is FUCKED!!" 🤣🤣 That had to be one of the funniest line readings I've heard in ages. Absolutely hilarious!
Whats wrong with your faaaaace?
There's alot of lore Chris doesn't know about around this, the lightning didn't turn his face, it unveiled his real face. Can't remember exactly what it was but palpatine was hiding his real face with sith powers
I love the scene where Obi Wan said "Younglings" and covers his mouth trying not to laugh xD
Michael Perez Yeah blooper
Mikeylangelo always thought calling kids younglings was so stupid and pretentious. George Lucas dropped the ball with dialogue throughout the whole series but seemed to really amplify it for the later made movies.
xD
Andy Tihonow I love the wit in Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back. Rtoj is where his style got stale and we all remember the prequels. And I have to say, the past three directors have completely mirrored his mistakes. The amount of emotion from the actors is much higher in Rogue One, and the two new saga films, but good God, it's like they want us to watch these movies on mute. Almost to make us even more interested in that God awful CGI. Oh and just because I'm here discussing shitty George Lucas choices... Why in the hell would they not use the Yoda Puppet, even an animatronic would have been great. The beauty of the first three is the practical effects. When They're real objects, as obserd some are, the creature like the Wampa or Yoda suddenly feel like they might exist somewhere.
Mikeylangelo
Chris's prequel reviews are HILARIOUS. My favourite of all his videos
Yeah, because it's crystal clear that he absolutely HATES these movies and think they're worst Star Wars content. I completely disagree with him on that, but that's how he feels.
@@SpFlash1523I mean…. they are REALLY bad movies and I don’t even think Revenge of the Sith is the best one. I think Phantom Menace is better.
it is 2019 and i still underestimate your power.
That intro was the best.
Cesar Rivera when I say "lol" I fucking mean it in this case. lol!
i agree, it was funny and it made me laugh
Yessss!! I always thought that Natalie Portman looked weird in that scene too. I think it's the hair.
Ok, regarding Natalie and her odd appearance. I'll take a stab at it. This scene was definitely a pick up scene or reshoot well after principal photography had been completed. This happened late 2004 in London (Wiki). V for Vendetta had started it's principal photography. Yes, I'm saying she was already bald and had to wear a wig for this scene.
Troy EZ That makes complete sense. You may have solved the decade old mystery!
Troy EZ she's wearing a ton of make up in that scene too
Kelsey Merriam of
I always thought she looked awful in that scene! I always point it out to people and they think I'm crazy. I always thought it was unflattering lighting or something. It's the worst she's looked in the entire series. I'm glad I'm not crazy for thinking this. so weird.
Is it me or did Anakin in the opening skit screaming like Muscle Man from Regular Show?
Disagree, that fight was the best thing ever. Also padme dying is because darth sideous is using her life force to keep Anakin alive
Using her life force to keep Anakin alive? That’s just lazy writing
@@jakeengb How else should Sideous know about her death? I think it's a nice way to tie back into his previous training and murder with Darth Plagus.
NCR Trooper yeah it shows it in rise of skywalker, kylo gave his life for reys, like she was dead and he gave all of his life for rey, so he used that ability to take the life force from padme to give it to anakin
Or it was lazy writing
@@olleberglund6712 I agree that it seems more likely it was lazy writing
10:27 - Your impression of Palpatine fighting with the lightsaber was spot on! 😆
I've watched it so so many times
I couldn’t stop laughing at that part.
Yea he also just kills the first 2 Jedi so stupidly,it's like ur a Jedi and u can't react to that yet u block lasers
@@Maury_au_Arcos if someone just did a fucking 900 spin lightsaber dive thingy what would you do?
@@lancelorio1067 force push his ass into a wall.
So, what was it that you wanted to point out about the security hologram? I think I missed that.
MrBWhite88 Yeah, he never got back to that.
Or that there was a senate meeting where Palpatine was explaining why he is now emperor of the universe going on at the exact time Obi One was viewing the security footage... So Obi could show the whole senate the footage, expose Palpitine as an evil Sith Lord and prevent the empire from happening.
The Dashboard Pretty sure he wanted to mention how there's security footage of Palpatine being evil or something and how we only get this footage when it's too late. I remember some mention of it in the RLM review of this movie.
I think he was going to talk about how they are watching footage from palpatine's office when they are on the jedi temple
He never went back
I don't care what anyone says. IMO Episode 3 is the best of them all.
I love this film! How can you not love that final battle?
because he is a moron?
Right bro tripping this is the best fights scene ever
@@boogatikasino9978 its his love for the originals, nit picking the highlights of the movie, compare this review to his review of the originals and you'll see the issue
@@JimminyCrickettjIt’s not an issue. The Originals are just better.
@@boogatikasino9978I loved it.
The reason Sidious dosen't react to his face is because he always looked like that. He was using force ventriloquy to disquise his force corruption.
EG Productions What? Where does it say that? In the animation??
holamoco17 no the visual guide did I have it
Yup. It is widely known that extensive use of the Dark Side of the Force corrupts not only the mind, but one's flesh as well.
Revenge of the Sith > The Last Jedi
Alvin Elmore Haha I said the exact same thing 😂
The upload wizard. CZcams. ca Revenge Of Sith is alright 6/10 but Last Jedi was mediocre 5/10
Revenge of the Sith is my favorite Star Wars movie.
Alvin Elmore Its has the best score and action scenes but still has flaws and cheesy dialogue imo
Alvin Elmore TLJ is the worst SW movie ever
8:59 its from Bruce Lee's movies, its a reference. If you add Bruce's kick scream at the end it make sense.

You notice how the part that was missing in the front of millenium falcon in all the movies but was there at the beginning of solo was not even there then which was far before lando persumably got it.
I still remember getting chills from seeing Darth Vader's mask being put into place and then the breathing started.... Damn! And I even remember people laughing in the theater when Yoda knocks down the two Imperial guards in the Emperor's office Lol

I always hated when Anakin said, “From my point of view, the Jedi are evil!” That really doesn’t seem like something a Sith would say.
@Hassan Syed "fuck the jedi order, it makes no sense to me"
From my point of view your comment makes no sense
Vader wasn't ever really like all the other Sith Lords.
Lol exactly it’s not that Vader is in the dark side because he thinks he’s on the good guy side lol
To everyone who replied, I feel like a Sith would be intolerant of other viewpoints. I feel like he should have said, “No, the Jedi are evil.” I just don’t think that a Sith would give credibility to another viewpoint by specifying his point of view from someone else’s.
Oh the reason palpatine wasnt surprised about his face changing is because its always been like that.
He was using a dark side power to mask his face (I forgot what its called) but many sith users used this power to hide in plain sight
That's why windus face didn't change after being struck by the lightning
jonathan khan force mask
the scene where padme's dying because she "lost the will to live" and then the childbirth being intercut with the death of anakin was supposed to show that palpatine was sapping padme's life force in order to save anakin's life. just moments after padme's death, when darth vader stands up, palpatine tells him that padme was dead, and there was no other possible way for him to know that she was dead while being that far away unless he was the one behind it. why else would he introduce the tale of darth plagius the wise and the ability to stop those you love from dying?
I can't remember where i saw it, but i saw a review on youtube that delved deeper into this idea but i can't remember what it was called or who the uploader was.
I remember seeing this idea first in CinemaWins Everything Great about ROTS
That is crazy! If that actually is the truth of what happened, the entire ending of ROTS makes so much more sense.
It may have been Star Wars Theory. He’s made a bunch of excellent and compelling videos.
this theory has a great weakness. palpatine must have known about anakin's children if he had access to padme's life force. he most likely didnt know. anakin strangulating padme left bad injuries on her body and soul. i think palpatine told truth at that point. anakin killed padme knowingly or unknowingly.
Thats an AMAZING idea sadly not what we get in the movie!!!!
"SHE'S LOST THE WILL TO LIVE? WHAT IS YOUR PHD IN? POETRY?"
5 years later, medical science now says that's actually a thing.
@@CMonty yeah, I think it has been known for quite a while now, people just giving up on live inside war-torn or besieged cities for example during the World Wars.
Dr ball
@@dardo1201 actually its true
@@CMonty yeah my father actually loved that idea, and well rattled on for 2 hours after the film lecturing us about how that really exists
i just realized that the technique anakin was interested in learning that would save people from dying is the technique rey just learned. If only anakin was a mary sue and learned how to force heal simply because he wanted to just like Rey
XD
13:26 THIS will always be the most BAD ASS Anakin maneuver!
Actually (and I think it's even canon)- it was explained that Palpatine looked like this because of the dark side and that the lightning just destroyed his disguise.
that's what I always assumed, but I wish it was a little more explicit. there should have been earlier scenes where we see that face and wonder what the fuck we're looking at, and then he turns around to address someone and looks normal. and then in this scene, both mace windu and anakin should have been horrified to see him.
Honestly I didn’t think it looked like Natalie Portman either
She has the look like she just had a good fuck
Np is sexy
It's because she's not wearing makeup. Girls tend not to wear makeup at home you idiot.
I hope nobody seriously thinks any actor is ever in front of the camera without any makeup on. Of course she was wearing makeup. It's the terrible curly hair and accentuating her ears, her face looks wider than usual. Maybe she gained 2 pounds before a reshoot.
I loved this movie. I never understood all the hate and I feel like with how poorly received the Rise of Skywalker movie was a lot of people will appreciate the prequels more.
maybe they don't like it because its mediocre, maybe because its unfocused narrative skips past important plot details for pointless fight sequences that add nothing to the plot. I swear to god if the prequels were just a random Sci-fi trilogy of movies it would get just as bad reception as something like Jupiter ascending, same thing i say to the sequel supporters, same thing i say to predator 2 supporters, same thing I say to terminator 3 supporters. Do I need to continue or do you get the point?
My God, I've watched Chris' Star Wars reviews like 100 times, I love them!
He just burned an Anakin Skywalker figure that's worth $90. rip
1plus0neistwo he probably made like 3 times that on this video alone
Grow up and get a life.
