[@christopherpoet458]

Something that fascinates me about Star Wars is that George let the fans go wild with expanding the lore and history/future of the cannon. He told the story he wanted, could tell more even (we all know he had plans for more) but he didn't put down other talent from expanding his work. And in the end, we got Legends. Other writers who respected and honored George's creation but took it steps further into new directions and built up more lore. As someone who is an aspiring writer, I highly respect this. And all things considered, I would let the same thing happen. Though, unlike George (and in no way do I mean any offense at the man,) I would sooner let the devil possess me than sell my work to someone else. While I get "why" he did it. I honestly feel it was a mistake in the long term of the franchise. At least by keeping it within my influence, I can at least ensure the core of the story remains what it was and is intended to be.

[@obitwokenobi9808]

It's always been like that. Real Star Wars comes from the expanded universe. The movies are nothing by comparison.

Original trilogy is propably the best movies for obvious reasons, but they aged A LOT, Prequels are memed to death, and mentioning anything about Sequels will cause this entire poor excuse of a community to throw shit at eachother and scream like a bunch of primates about Rey being a mary sue and Disney being some company that is ran by devils all beacuse they made 3 terrible movies that rely on nostalgia and nothing else, (jesus christ, see im now turning into one of them lmao) Meanwhile the coolest shit often happens in tv series, comics and books, while the movies are usually pretty fucking terrible. Like an arc of Clone Wars is usually almost as long as a minimal requirement to be considered a feature film, and they still manage to convey everything WAAAY better than any of the movies did.

It seems pretty obvious that Palpatine would have him assassinated at some point even if the Jedi didn't.

True. But Vader was human and a brutal enforcer of authority rather than a caotic alien enemy rampaging across the galaxy. Even if Vader's kill count was higher you be surprised how many people would have less of a problem with the authority of their own government murdering people then some outside threat murdering just as many, or even fewer. In the real word there have been some pretty alarming studies done on people who were asked by an authority figure to inflict increasing amounts of pain, even risk killing the subject, on someone else. In other words, most people tend to be like sheep, doing whatever authority tells them to.

I like how Grevious' death is described as part of "the textbook example of a Jedi trap" in the Revenge of the Sith novel (Chapter 15: Death on Utapau). "The first is an irresistible bait... The second is a remote, nearly inaccessible location... Third, since it is a good idea to remain well out of reach when ploting against a Jedi's life - on the far side of the galaxy is considered best - one should have a reliable proxy" (page 281 - 282). "The final element essential to the creation of a truly effective Jedi trap is a certain coldness of mind... from any desire for a particular outcome. The best way to arrange matters is to create a win-win situation." (page 330).

@@jcerrano98 and the inquisitors

[@katitude-uk3635]

It is well documented that both the Sith Empire and Galactic Empire were highly racist against non humans. However leadership in both understood usefulness outweighed this in a few circumstances. Mas Amedda made sense, he was effectively the second most powerful person in the republic under Chancellor Valorum. As a Zabrak Maul paved the way for the fear of the Sith in the Jedi and terror that Grievous later causes. Cad Bane again was very much about deception, an alien doing the work of the separatists against the Republic. Thrawn was not only a link to an ascendancy that operated in the unknown regions but a tactical genius far superior to anyone else in the Empire. Let's be clear, Palpatine is not a racist or a supporter of Humanocentrism. He is a master of deception, and plays to the "passions and prejudices" of others. Fear & Hatred are key tools of the Sith and getting the humans of the galaxy to fear & hate non humans (and everyone to fear & hate droids) The galaxy becomes a play ground for him to do whatever he wanted and do it without gaining attention from anyone else. On a final note, the Jedi Order was one of the most diverse groups of people in the galaxy with members from most species within their ranks. With the Separatists being almost entirely alien or droid (bar Jango and Dooku [of which one was dead and the other often working from the shadows and being a former Jedi) having this fear and hatred of non humans made it all the more believable come Order 66 and the reports that the Jedi attacked the Chancellor, were behind the war and that Dooku was actually still a Jedi just controlling the Separatists on the Council's behalf. Remember the Sith were reported to be extinct. Very few people came into contact with Sidious or Maul to ever question that. Even in the Clone Wars series, Maul & Savage are mistaken for Jedi gone rogue.

God i love this genius, murderous and unkillable semi-robot psychopath

Unkillable......have you seen ROTS ?

[@gobthegreat7797]

First video I’ve seen of yours and I absolutely love that classic Battlefront zoom in. Subbing rn because of that 😂

[@BIGMatt-uu9kh]

You are the reason I fw Star Wars now✊🏾

[@askronaut]

holy SHIT that intro gave me an overdose of nostalgia.

[@deathislife3545]

2003 clone wars>2008 clone wars. Have 2008's voice, with 2003 animation, and we have a real General Grievous.

[@Sielnt_Mateo]

DEATH IS LIFE the 2003 voice acting wasn’t terrible though.

[@ChintzleMcGrundle]

Your intro from battlefront just brought me back YEARS.

[@Zodiac.]

Wow that transition in the beginning was amazing

[@apexia2317]

What did the CIS know about Sidious and what is his rank within the CIS?

[@jasonravenscroft3333]

Apexia I think only a few within the CIS knew about Sidious, aka Dooku, Grievous, and the Separatist council.

[@marrqi7wini54]

@@jasonravenscroft3333 Those few new of Sidious but only Dooku knew Sidious was Palpatine.

[@fitzgerald297]

Nute Gunray knew

[@arthas640]

@@fitzgerald297 yeah, i think a few of the heads of state knew about Sidious, Nute Gunray (one of the main financiers of the war) being one of them, but i think it was mainly the few who met on Geonosis just before the start of the Clone Wars that knew about him. Most people in the CIS just thought it was Dooku running things himself.

This is a really good video, really enjoyed it!

[@Vikingr4Jesus5919]

I am now even more fascinated by the first Trilogy. The more you find out about it, the more you know and the more of a masterpiece it becomes. In fact, it's almost scary; if one has thought this up, it is not unthinkable something like the Trilogy may one day happen. I mean, we have lightsabres-on-backpacks, Robots, lasers, high tech stuff close to matching Star Wars' Sci Fi...

[@burnttoast26]

"The only known person to surpass him in killing Jedi was Darth Vader" *Darth Nihilus, shortly after eating the Jedi conclave at Katarr* : Am I a joke to you? It feels like this channel gets so much wrong when talking about Force users.

[@ianm5686]

Pretty sure he was going off canon

[@RobinSwede]

So who killed Grievous? Surely General Kenobi couldn't have; because he's a jedi, and jedi are evil.

[@DerrylHopkins]

I think it'd be fairly obvious for the Empire to not only say that the clones killed Greivous along with the Jedi, as the general did die from a blaster shot rather than a lightsaber. And, of course, there were tons of clones already on that planet.

You know I'm new to you're channel so I have to say that intro was sick af!

[@StonewallTitlow]

Started as a sketch, turned into a legend. True Story Of Grievous.

[@electronicmolesteroo4424]

Can you make a video about what would happen if Grievous survived his encounter with obi wan, like what would the chancellor do with him?

[@generalgrievous4674]

Most likely send him to mustafar and get anakin to kill him

[@baronfantomeproduction5499]

You mean : what would the Senate do with him ?

[@robertagu5533]

Funny the Rebels were the Separatists of the Galactic Civil War BUT they were actually the "good guys" most them anyways. An they actually won... with alot less of everything

[@draketurcotte4760]

Robert Agu well, the CIS were the good guys really, trying to leave a corrupt government, but the Confederacy itself got corrupted by the Sith. It started as a noble cause until the Sith corrupted it.

Honestly. I usually i press the like button simply because of the intro of the Battlefront galaxy zoom in thing. Brings back some memories

[@tev1ta_f773]

He was actually my favourite too I just loved the way he looked

[@akuladoctor7355]

This video reminded me to the Jade Empire game. A short but very good game. In there the Emperor uses an extremely powerful warrior to carry out his bidding. As he says. The obvious threat masks the real one. General Griveous is an obvious threat, that masks the threat behind the scenes.

[@Astropoliy]

How many Jedi did Darth Vader kill

[@LAV-III]

Over 200 or 300 I believe

[@ShadowJedi527]

People who sacrifice liberty in the name of security deserves neither.

What do you think of the CoronaVirus Pandemic rightnow? Although we are fighting a Virus,not an inter-galactic War

[@chad_bro_chill]

@@SIVAmemSIVAmemcode I think that various governments have been seizing as much power as they can under the guise of saving lives, and that they will not relinquish all of that power once the crisis passes. Just like after 9/11. Sure, some lives will be saved in the short term by shutting the economy down, but a Great Depression will cost plenty of lives on top of greatly lowering the standard of living worldwide. Is one life worth a million dollars? A billion? A trillion? (I'm not talking out my ass, either. The UN's World Food Programme predicts an extra 130 million people facing starvation in developing countries due to economic issues relating to this, that is, about double the norm).

[@xpawishtrapoodx2964]

Grievous is my favorite character in Star Wars and I wish they would make a movie dedicated to his backstory and some about his incredible battles

[@girth212]

That intor brought me strait back to star wars battlefront the first

[@amidark6518]

I thought he was made as a cappuccino machine or his whole purpose was to say "General Kenobi."

[@jamescustodio3094]

Love that joke about Generation Tech being Xenophobic.

[@wiseguy01]

not really a joke, it's true.

[@ray-0249]

0:29 that brings me fucking back to when I was 6-7 playing Star Wars battlefront on the original Xbox, good times :)

[@TatsuMurasaki]

I loooove General Grievous, he is tied in the number 1 position with another favorite character. As much of a monster as he his, his Tragic backstory makes him such an fascinating character.

[@-UROKI-]

I wonder how suck a legendary warrior died? By a blaster really?

[@PanzerIsDead]

The fucking intro brought back... let’s say a few memories

[@kaleeshguy]

I love the comlexity of the Clone Wars. I only wish that it was explored more in the movies and shows.

[@Moshuun]

So, Sidious is Bush? Greavous is 9/11?

[@odinphantom7337]

I can’t believe how wrong this video is. God, doesn’t anybody else know that Grievous was just a sick man trying to take care of his space hospital full of survivors of the Singularity Engine?
