@@user-gq5od5sh6o that would take years bro
Plz do more Old Republic Alot of ppl dont know who Emperor Valkorian is
Needs some better, more poignant writing, but my gosh, those visuals are on another level.
This is so gud
Dude the way this pays homage to the Old Republic trailers as well as being an inverse on Kenobi's dialogue in A New Hope, simply incredible. Also the voice work for Maul is near perfection.
I couldn't have said kit better myself
Ben has to explain what he did in the clone wars to remain after all were killed.
I don’t hear Peter Serafinowicz at all! The Clone/Rebels guy is American & does not posees Petes dulcet tone, see Pete character in Shaun of the Dead, it’s Maul!
Nice!
Kenobiiiiii!
Maul narration when he says "You were deceived, betrayed" is similar to Malgus speech as he approaches Jedi Temple during Old Republic. Absolutely stunning
I thought I was the only one who recognized that!
Definitely has to have gotten inspiration from that.
Lolll, I thought it was the Malgus speech
It made me want a Jedi to fall do the dark side and become his apprentice. "I can give you the power to take back what they've stolen, to restore the galaxy to what it once was. "
Another goosebumping moment
Ahsoka Tano was rendered up so well, just absolute chills seeing her having discomfort about Jedi being hunted down as she is meditating.
Fun fact: that was actually what the battlefront 2 ahsoka was gonna look like she is in game but just locked she was supposed to be the next update same with ventress they are both there but just locked deep within battlefront 2 files
0:41 I love watching the temple guard in the back dispatching clones. Please do some more animations with them in it.
First time you see them doing their job
@@wesleyt.8988 Well technically a tiny bit in rebels and clone wars, but not in high definition. Like they looked so sick swinging their very unique yellow sabers in the back.
The temple guards most likely got wiped by the grand inquisitor and a few remaining stood their ground
@@MrNonActive the shows had a terrible animation style i wish they all looked like this or atleast somewhat like it
@@stormbarnett5644 Wasn't the guy with shit teeth in Obi Wan a temple guard?
Before the dark times, before the Empire…
He didnt say it
Before Disney;)
How did my father die?
@@tripneon4981 Kenobi: He tried it
Luke: What
@@TKuhLiao03 What did he do?
Love how Maul is taking center stage in most fan works nowadays. How he went from a generic villain to such an icon. Best revive of a character in the franchise.
I know generally people complain about characters being brought back to life but Star Wars has done it really well so far I think.
Maul was brought back to be developed so brilliantly and become a terrifying presence with character motivations and arcs rather than just a scary apperence.
Boba brought back in Mandalorian became way more terrifying than he was in the original trilogy because he actually got to do things and became the character he was in comics and fan works for years.
Fennec was also kind of killed off but at least in that episode they end showing someone walking towards her - making it clear she was coming back rather than changing their mind later.
I have no defence for other characters who were brought back though >.
He was never generic, my dude. Always been the main attraction.
@@jovie311 you know it. The first time I watch Phantom Menace I was just waiting the entire time for the icon ignition of the second blade, and to have Duel of the Fates playing floored me. Then they made him incredibly deep and thoughtful, and if only Asoka teamed up with him...we can dream
i'll never like him because of what he did to kanan!
Yeah clone wars and rebels did so well with him, it was not just fan service, they really make this character so good
Maul's voice actor just nailed it.
This needs to be a movie. It's incredibly well done.
There technically is a game about this part of the star wars time-line
@@axelmerino1259 What is the tittle
@@darthstarkiller3248 jedi fallen order
I mean, that already exists? sorry it's odd to ask for a movie off of a fanmade montage/trailer of a franchise that had started out as a movie
@@Czarbucks6146 *14 “movies”, 3 series, and countless video games and books lol
omg what a masterpiece, I feel like this could be a trailer or a video game or unreal series 👏 btw the maul voice was so on point, absolutely killed it
Hi micheal Jae, I’m a big fan of yours! Loved this short
really cool to see you here. i love your stuff
it seems like it would be perfect for a story based around darth maul or something
Order 66 changed everything
@@Plumy-Diver4 Maul and Ashoka
I really like how Maul’s dialogue juxtaposes Obi-Wan’s
“For over a thousand generations the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the galaxy. Before the dark times.”
“For generations the Jedi brought war to the galaxy. Always fighting in the name of peace and justice. Before the dark times.”
Oh shit! Where was obiwan's dialogue from?
@@andresv.8880 A New Hope when he meets Luke and gives him the saber
Good catch!
Same
It makes sense to that maul would have the opasite opinion as he hates and is obsessed with obi-wan
I have to admit it - "The Force is strong with This One" - this is one of the best fan made Star Wars movies I have ever seen - pure epic! BRAVO!!! 100/100 !!!
The fact that you can click on almost any part of the video and use it as a backround speaks for itself. Absolutely stunning visually and the voice acting for maul was on point, Sam Witwer would be proud. Amazing work!
1:06 Definitely will be my new desktop wallpaper
@@toazethegecko 1:20 will be mine !
Christophsis? Umbara? The Second Sister? What’s not to love!
My favorite transition 0:49
Hello there
Dude am I the only one who thinks the 2nd sister needs more love? Like she’s the only real competent inquisitor since rebels really made them look very bad even the grand inquisitor himself 😬.
pretty good transition, but Abigail Thorn tho
@@OkIPullUp2915 That transition was so awesome. Exactly the same place, looking the complete opposite, with the good turned bad, all changed by one trooper moving from the left to right (Symbolism for how the Clone troopers committed order 66 and their armor became the symbol for evil? 🤔) was just *chefs kiss.*
@@master0fthearts894 I agree, but I think you may have replied to the wrong person
Why does this feel like a trailer for a game centred around Maul post-Order 66? This is amazing✨🙌
Probably because that’s the entire point
I wouldn’t mind it if wasnt
We need that
Omg imagine, that concept alone is crazy.
OMG yes, and like theyre hinting at him running into asokha again after SWTCW
Love how maul was narrating as he was the only one who really saw it coming
I mean not the only, u still had fives,kicks, technically some Jedi knew the order would fall soon like barris
And he was the one with closest link to Palatine who wasn't on his side (and KNEW, not just a guess it was coming).
THIS is what Disney Should have been doing with Star Wars - stuff like this. This video is gorgeous!
Yeah. George Lucas intented Darth Maul and Darth Talon to be the bad guys after ep. 6
Maul narrating while the galaxy falls apart is so epic man, your work always manages to give me goosebumps. Amazing job!
Woah! You're here too!!!
You really get the sense of dread and impending darkness!
He’s the perfect man to narrate this as he has experienced similar things
Amazing work!
general janobot !
Hello there
Hello Peter
Hello there
Hello there
This is incredible, the 240p reupload on some guys channel is how I found this but I'm glad your comment led me to its original place
Liked and favourited
This was a fantastic fan-film. To me, it almost looks like a trailer for a video game that is set to release ten years from now. Absolutely wonderful work!
Breathtaking shots! Really hoping the Kenobi series will capture this tone just as perfectly as you guys did with all the imagery here. Fantastic work 👏
I also hope. We need a dark Star Wars live action content.
I want to see a really threatening Empire
Americans seek to dislike anything that isn't sunshine and rainbows or that doesn't have a some political message.
People like us are actually a minority...the majority are just casuals who get excited by flashy things.
If you haven't lost faith in Disney you have not been paying attention.
Probably wont but we can hope
Hahaha Good one didint realise it was a joke, at first xD
Crazy to think out of 10,000 Jedi knights and masters only 100 or 200 survived the initial purge
remember the 10000 number only counts jedi knights AND masters ONLY, not padawans, younglings and initiates, so there would probably be a little more jedi surviving order 66, of course it doesn't change the fact that over the years only less than a dozen of these would be alive, and less willing to fight the empire.
Also there was the massive amount that died during the war too, so the Jedi were already spread thin when the purge hit
@@kylershahalami6453
If you’ve ever read or listen to the book, Darth Plagueis, he and Palpatine spent decades planning how they would exterminate the Jedi. It’s a really great book if you haven’t already read or listened to it.
The Imperial Purge was nowhere near the Sith Empire Purge.
until you add the fallen order sweats
Dude I literally thought this had to be a legit trailer for a game or something, incredible work! Best Star Wars fan cinematic I’ve EVER seen, by a mile!
i wasn't expecting this level of cinematic, especially for star wars. probably the only star wars fan made video i like so far
Wait. It isn't?
@@Melanesian-dudeshockingly no, it’s fan made
0:33 I love that one clone trooper next to the jedi slowly reaching for their weapon
I’m literally on the verge of passing out but I need to watch this.
Clone Wars Maul looks epic and also it does look like Clone wars maul
@@jobbieryan6662 it’s old master Maul
This is amazing. That shot of Alderaan near the end was astounding. Looks exactly how it would if this were SWTOR, and the woman looking up to see the Death Star... wow.
Looking up at the Death Star not knowing that she, the planet, and everything and everyone on it was about to die...
@@SkidMan_Jurej would they even know what it was? I thought only the Rebel Alliance had intel on the Death Star since the Empire suppressed any information about it.
Judging from the scene in the movie, the Death Star was further from Alderaan than our Moon is from Earth. The people there wouldn't be able to see anything, really, from the planet's surface. Military personnel would see it on their long range scanners, probably, and anyone with a telescope pointed in the right direction might see an unknown spherical object, but beyond that, almost everyone else was completely blindsided.
Hey princess let it goooooo.
@@detroitandclevelandfan5503 BABOOOOOOOOM! PSSSH POOW chunks everywhere
These 2 minutes are still better than anything Disney has put out in the last 2 decades. Great job guys! Chefs kiss
True that. Diesny is just producing crap except for rogue one....
The Mandalorian, Clone Wars, Rebels, The Bad Batch, Tales of the Jedi?
So this short trailer is better than the Mandalorian or clone wars season 7?
2 decades?
@@kayz.o1054 What do you think is good?
Just came from the stolen video posted by TheEmpire. Dude! This trailer was so awesome I generally thought I missed out on some recent triple A trailer but when I learnt you fan made it - I was completely blown!! You did a absolute fantastic job capturing everything and mood in this trailer!!! :')
Keep up the good work! You earnt my sub :')
Edit: gotta say, this is the best fanmade cinematic trailer I've seen so far
Me too, came from that video
@@Mateo27007 aha guess you saw this content creator's comment in TheEmpires stolen video?
@@Ghost.Hellbound yep. Also, the ending was abrupt and it was like…
I hate when they put on the comments “this is not mine, it’s for entertainment purposes only”, dude, you are still copying someone’s IP
@@Mateo27007 me too!
Was literally about to say, funny enough I never saw them crediting the original creator - they could have asked for permission to re-upload... I know yeah :/
Same original is amazing
This could be an actual triple A teaser for a game that would probably easily sell 100k+ preorders. Just mind blowing stuff, good job.
My thoughts exactly!
Absolutely breathtaking, imagine if the clone wars looked like this (yes I know the production cost would have reached the stars)
It would be amazing, but I believe one day we will get this. Eventually they will realize how valuable and how much the fans love the Clone Wars
@@the-77-ronin7 Star wars is owned by disney bro, think twice. If they are producing trash (sequels) by not listening to the advice George Lucas gave them, why would they listen to us and create something like this. DIsney do think they can make a better star wars after all than the original CREATOR, bc disney is arrogant. Look at how the sequels turned out bc they didn't listen to the directions George Lucas wanted, but they did there own thing bc again they think they can do better. Plus why would they do this, what does something like this serve to the story; it would cost to much and there is no need for it, but it would be cool to see though.
@@insultlk I agree Disney wouldn’t do anything like this but imagine what the future of Star Wars animation will be and how cool it will look
I could easily see this being it's own animation style in a new star wars tv show it's great
so well edited, amazing!
Incredible!!! I loved the temple!!! Masterpiece.
Amazing! I love how dark and real this felt. We really need a clone wars live action show or movie in that style.
Amazing! That detalization... Literally every frame of this vid I want to set as a wallpaper
Holy shit! Now this is something else! 😍
He Leute 👋
True
Well Thanks CZcams for atleast recommending good stuff once.
Tom & Taha auch am Start sehr nice 👍🏻💪🏼
Ihr wollt doch genauso wie wir einen Film in genau diesem style 🙃🤫
I absolutely love this kind of style. This looks like it took a long time overall. And it just is amazing. And whoever voiced Maul did an amazing voice. sounds just like Sam Witwer.
Amazing!!! I miss StarWars so much, its been 8 years since we got any legit content, this was a breath of fresh air, thank you!!
Awesome short film! I love how you included some of the iconic Clone Wars battles and this film really reminds me of Maul in Clone Wars season 7. Fabulous job!
The scenes you created inside the jedi temple during the purge were absolutely amazing! Never before have we seen depictions of those events so eloquently captured, a fanfilm at that. We shall watch your career with great interest.
Maul's speech mannerisms are so hard to replicate, props to the VA!
This is incredible. Your hard work is appreciated, thank you for this.
Everything in this video is just absolutely stunning! The graphics are insane, the voices are insane, and the angles, and light shafts are fricking crazy! Keep up the good work great video!!!
INSANE STUFF
That darth maul art work looks so damn cool
“You were deceived, betrayed…purged.” Best part
This was incredible! Thank you!
Disney needs to take notes on y’all cinematography that scene when Vader’s choking the random Jedi with the stormtroopers standing at attention behind and the star destroyer in the background was just chefs kiss
imagine a whole show or movie like this. This is the true potential of star wars, not live action in my opinon.
Whoever created the cinematic trailers for The Old Republic needs to make a series. I felt more attatched to the characters in the short 5-minute clips than I did the entire sequel trilogy.
@@ChAdaMabe swtor’s cinematic trailers are top-tier star wars media
eh hard to do think about file size disney does not have 1000 trillion tb harddrives they had to have this video in 8k after all lol i can only imagine what they had to do for it
@@Nightengale537 i imagine it could be scaled down to 720/1080p or 4k, especially since a lot of people don’t have tvs/monitors/phones that support 4k or 8k anyways
I almost agree. This has an absolutely incredible amount of potential in Star Wars, but I still feel a gritty Band of Brothers style series during the Galactic Civil War would do an incredible amount. Follow both an Alliance infantry unit(Twilight Company(yes, yes, I know they're mobile cavalry)) and an Imperial unit. No Jedi. No Force, just a military show. Or something bringing the X-Wing book series to a screen would be amazing. I truly think the future of Star Wars lies in TV series.
Fantastic work to everyone involved!
Stumbled upon this randomly and it is an absolute piece of art! Very well done. Subscribed!
It such an amazing work like everytime ! Graphisms are incredible, the voice of Maul, his words very close to Obi-Wan speech in a New Hope. Beautiful !!
So Maul gets his own "Before the Dark Times" speech that mirrors Obi-Wan's. Neat.
The Malgus-Maul correlation, the connection to clone wars characters, the inclusion of games like swtor and fallen order, the music... Just pure perfection
(Also the "purged" line when a purge trooper is shown lmao)
This is unbelievably well-done. I am enthralled.
Incredible work man. You revived my love for this universe. Have a good one!
Your work is beyond incredible! This straight up looks like an official Star Wars production! I really hope you guys are aware and know how much these projects mean to the Star Wars community! This is something truly special!
Also seeing Obi-Wan’s perspective on Umbara with the 212th was just the cherry on top! I did not expect to see that, I hope eventually an official story does showcase it in Canon!
I don’t know, some of the shots look extremely professional, no part of it looked cheap to me personally.
I wasn’t saying that it was live-action, but something like a CGI trailer!
To be honest, your line " This straight up looks like an official Star Wars production! " nails it. It is insane, that we are really at the point of render quality at which you just don't know, whether this is live-action or not, or dare I say at the point, where you have to look twice. Give this technology a few more years and we might see CGI renders, that do look like a life action production.
@@siwa9878 I agree! Technology is only gonna get better, and the people who know how to use it are going to continue to make extremely great stuff!
@@generalskywalker5014 Oh yes certainly.
@@therealremedy I mean...I could see this as a trailer for a game
Wow. Love the shot of Anakin walking through the temple. The clone fighting looks right out of the movies!
need a full length movie from these geniuses. PLease make our dreams come true
chills bro. this is a masterpiece.
The fact that it's Maul speaking is just ... perfectly fitting in so many ways.
Magnificent. Bravo.
1:11 I love the reference to the old republic deceived trailer (one of my all time favorite trailers of anything)! 😎👍
The scene at the end with the Death Star was absolutely bone chilling
This is amazing. Very well done with all of the big characters shown. It seems the ability to make films using this medium is endless
i don't know what's more impressive. the amazing way you captured the sheer feel of Star Wars, the graphics. or how like Sam Witwer the Maul VO sounds
Maaan, how amazing is that!!!
This could very well be an epilogue to The Clone Wars, I’m actually a bit ashamed that it took almost two months for me to see this.
All the references, connections and little details, without mentioning the technical stuff of course.
Simply perfect!!
Literal chills! This is amazing!
This is insane. You guys crushed it. Honestly thought it was Sam Witwer doing the voice for Maul too. 🤯
That’s the best Maul impression I’ve ever heard
Incredible work, the alderaan shots, the purge trooper appearing when he said purge & all the connections to existing lore was amazing, this is coming from somebody who typically finds fan stuff like this quite cringey & hard to watch so I hope the compliments are felt there, great job truly
I want more of this!!!
I felt a lot of emotion in this 2 minutes. This was incredible
Especially at 0:41
@@sith_master_shaun7988 we need an animated order 66 series showing everything that happened to basically every known jedi and a full temple sequence with Anakin and the 501st storming the Temple
Every frame of this production is pure art
Your work on this is brilliant! Every frame looks like a painting!
My god...the music, the visuals, ungh!! ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!!!!
This was INSANE. Some of those shots really brought a grounding effect to a lot of the SW universe, and the mo-cap was fantastic
This goes to show that 2 minutes of excellence can easily out class ALL OF THE SEQUELS! Great Job!
Comparing this short film to the sequel trilogy is an insult to this short film.
More like all of the prequels LOL
Omfg we get it. Stop acting immature
well, it's called "art" and "talent".
lol saying this is better than a trilogy of movies is ridiculous
This is AMAZING dude. Very well done
Now I want to see the entire Clone Wars series redone in Unreal…
Dude, your team needs to be hired for more star wars projects, im just saying. that was phenomenal. F*cking masterpiece!
It is just absolutely beyond comprehension that something THIS professional and well made can come out of Indie projects. It's absolutely aw-inspiring and motivating. Thank you guys so much for the amazing amount of effort you put into each and every one of your projects. It's truly amazing
CZcams has been giving me a heap of fan-fiction Star Wars films of late and this one is my favourite by a large margin. Nice work.
This was amazing! Everything was great.
this is so crazy, are you using a thread ripper for this and if so what kind⁉️
Not the thread ripper but I am using a Ryzen 9 5950x and an RTX A6000 so pretty insane tech.
@@CinematicCaptures is that better then the thread ripper?
@@HunterTVbro The CPU isn't, but the GPU is pretty much the best you can get
@@CinematicCaptures Lmao did you invest in DOGE when it first came out to afford that card? That mf at LEAST $8k.

Chills, literal Chills.
I really like how you turned Qui-Gons Quote from TPM into this Monolouge of Maul
Simply wow! First time seeing this .. and I really loved this. May the Force be with you ALWAYS!
Absolutely amazing, i love it thank you for this.
The shots you display in this clip are simply breathtaking, especially for SW fans (of course). The Jedi temple battle right in the middle of it, a random Jedi hidden in a room in Coruscant, Death Star seen from Alderaan POV... Just, wow. I can't even pick a favorite scene from your trailer. Thank you for that!!!
Don’t forget the 212th and Obi-Wan perspective of the Battle of Umbara
Always a pleasure to work with you, man! The visuals in this short are absolutely phenomenal and is a credit to how hard you and the team work on these. Congrats to everyone involved!
This was so freaking amazing!!!
