[@BainPlays]

15:26 I think it's important to mention that the original Jedi (those who founded the Jedi order some thousands of years ago) understood the importance of vulnerability and of humanity. In many cases they encouraged Jedi to meditate on their emotions. to get to the roots of their trauma and heal from it. They understood that for someone as powerful as a Jedi, emotional dysregulation could be incredibly dangerous to others. The thing is though, by the time of the late republic (when these films take place), the Jedi had been so isolated from the lives of everyday citizens. They sat in their ivory tower, contemplating philosophy with no way of truly living that philosophy. By this point, they were little more than a political tool of a republic that was succumbing to corruption and decadence. This is why I always loved Qui-Gon Jinn, from The Phantom Menace. He followed the teachings of those Jedi that came far before him. He understood that a Jedi must still care, acknowledge their feelings, and be in touch with their own vulnerability. That's why his death is so tragic. Had Qui-Gon been able to train Anakin, he likely would have turned out much different. Qui-Gon saw that Anakin needed a father figure in his life, and he was far more ready to take that role than Obi-Wan.

[@vatsalgaur1999]

This is literally why qui va maul is literally called duel of fates. It decides the fate of anakin

[@cdestroyer2180]

I think this is a perfect example

[@ljeans531]

Also, Yoda is a oldest member, but the Jedi are not a cult like some people like to exaggerate about. Many have different opinions and values on how to interpret teachings. They all have different ways of doing things. Some Jedi are more pacifists than others, while some think intimate relationships can be healthy. It's implied throughout the film and other Canon media that many people in the order suspected Padmé and Anakin were together and Obi-wan def knew, but it was a kinda thing they just let be.

[@ljeans531]

​@@vatsalgaur1999attachment and possessions become a problem when it turns into an obsession and that's what the original Jedi warned about. But the modern jedi interpreted that as "all connections are evil" instead of warning against unhealthy attachment. And many Jedi were fine with it, and some were not. Healthy attachment is knowing when you have to let go, If I love my child, but won't let him go to school because he might get hit by a car, that's an unhealthy attachment cause I'm overly worried about things outside of my control.

[@neil2444]

I think this was a failing on the part of Yoda. He gave the right advice without realizing that it was completely worthless to Anakin precisely because Anakin was too much in love with Padme. This is also one of the reasons why the jedi are trained so young (and perhaps why Anakin is perhaps more susceptible to this to begin with). It isn't because they lose potential with age, it's so that they can imprint the right set of values before they become rebellious and might actually consider going against the teachings. It's possible to live lives of celibacy, it happens with Buddhist monks all the time. They just keep themselves away from temptation.

[@jvar_DC09]

No matter how much prep you’ve had, watching Anakin fall to the dark is so shocking/heartbreaking 😢💔

It's incredibly sad and tragic how Anakin was always destined for this life. He was the chosen one, and he fulfilled his prophecy, but he had to endure the most excruciating hardships all throughout his life only to end with the feeling of love and comfort in the arms of his son. The one who saw through all the pain.

Whats worse is that the clones did not want to execute order 66 but the chips implanted on them at birth took control and made them obey without question (most of them anyways some tried to go against the chip). Some clones committed suicide as well afterwards.

[@superpaytonmars8852]

That's only in the new canon. Originally, they were simply engineered and conditioned to follow any order without question, and were never loyal to the Jedi. This further showcases how the Jedi fell to their own hubris.

[@Ginza92]

I know a lot of people don't like the romance in episode 2 but I like to think of it like two teens on their first date. They are attracted to each other but have no experience dating. Anakin is also immature, and this irritates Padme sometimes. Also, there love is forbidden so that adds more awkwardness and turmoil in the relationship. By episode 3 they are more comfortable with each other and have a system of how to behave with the outside world, so they come across as having better chemistry.

[@alanjohnson9240]

Anakin is still so misunderstood in these movies. As a child he grew up without a father, only being cared for by his mom. Then he gets taken away from her to become a Jedi who even from the beginning was looked down upon and was only allowed to become a Jedi due to qui-gon. Then when he starts getting dreams of her dying, all the Jedi tell him to ignore is feelings and that it’s better to let go. And when his mother dies he blames himself for not being able to stop it. His whole life as a Jedi he was told that he was the chosen one just for all the masters to treat him as a threat. In his mind the Jedi were already failing him. He looked up to obi wan as a father figure, wanting him to encourage and stick up for him, but obi wan saw anakin as a brother and someone who was able to protect himself. But the chancellor played off of a Anakins want for a father and tried to take that role so he could influence anakin. And when anakin had dreams of pademe dying the Jedi again told him to ignore and let go, where as the chancellor told him what he wanted to hear. Anakin knew what was right, but when he looked for someone to help him, he always felt abandoned, except for the chancellor. Anakin knew that what he was doing was bad, but he wanted someone there to tell him what was right and wrong until it was too late.

[@LycanThrobe77]

I liked your friends notes on the duel of the fates song and scene but to take it one step further obi-wan defeating maul is also symbolism for how in the end Anakin was able to overcome Vader from light to dark to light again thus bringing balance to the force

[@ProducerJames91]

But you also need to note how the battle that Qui-Gon had with the counsel was different from the difficult Anakin seemed to have with the counsel....If Qui-Gon had won against Maul, and Obi didn't get killed in the process, Anakin's difficulty with the counsel might have been about substantive issues....But because Obi won and Qui-gon died, Anakin was trained by Obi, not Maul, or Qui-gon.

27:59 In the Episode III novel a bystander couldn't even see what was going on, only flashes of light, cause Palpatine and Windu were moving so incredibly fast, which is also why the 3 other jedi got destroyed pretty much immediately.

[@lordmortarius538]

The creepy scream Palps does at the start is a Dark Side move that confuses and sets their opponents off balance, which is how Jedi Masters fell so easily, they were disoriented. Mace Windu practices the Vapaad style which draws from the Dark Side as well so he wasn't as affected.

[@adriankuban3134]

​@@ariavengerAnakin's descent into darkness was well portrayed. Because some Jedi never completely loved him, didn't respect him, didn't trust him, didn't take him seriously and even despised him. As a child before Obi-Wan started teaching him, he was hated and psychologically bullied by other children "Anakin is a slave to his feelings" and that was only because of envy because he was much more gifted and skilled than them. . . .And many other things and sufferings he and his padawan, Ashoka Tano, the Jedi like to cause. Yoda during the Clone Wars, he met the spirit of Darth Bane in Sitt's tomb, which is created by the rule of two. And later in his visions he saw Anakin becoming Darth Vader and didn't do anything about it because I thought it wasn't worth it. Anakin was a slave all his life - Tatuine, Jedi, Love, Dark Side. He became a father figure to Qui-gon Jinn, during his stay in the temple he was psychologically bullied and called by others "Anakin slaves to his own feelings", he lost his mother, the Jedi never married him all the time and without proper evidence he accused Ashoka and caused her to leave and finally he was afraid of losing Padmé. The only and worst support given the events was Palpatine who was a fatherly substitute for Anakin from the beginning. When he used Mace Windu's hand and after killing the Jedi he was already in the dark as the dark side itself showed him to the planet Mortis The One Son. On Mustafar, Padme almost got him from the dark side, but Obi-Wan discovered him and screwed it up. Anakin "Vader" built his castle on Mustafar and thanks to the two sbosobs he tried to revive Padmé but he could not see it due to the fact that Luke and Leya were already born, they were the only ones preventing it with their existence. Too bad he didn't find "Word between Wolrds" on the planet Lothal. He would create an alternate Reality or go through all of history. ;) . . . You have to find out about the lost 20 Jedi like Count Dooku, about the fates of Jedi with the ability to see the future, young apprentices who were not taken by any Jedi masters to learn, who showed little talent for the force and were not shown to the temple which in some cases was quite drastic, . .. Blinded by ego, aronance, pride, absolute help to people and not following the path of forces. Honor to the exceptions and one of the true Jedi was Master Fey. The Jedi and the Fallen Jedi (Sith) have betrayed the memory and message of their common ancestors of the Je'daii Order by their actions and the endless battles of their Civil War. 😊 May the force be with you. And may you lead the force. 🖐️

[@Flitterquest]

They had concept drawings where they were gonna give Anakin a combination mohawk and ponytail for this film, so I'd say the hair they went with in the final film was a pretty good choice.

And mando and ahsoka

[@bobogus7559]

Ahsoka won’t make as much sense without both Clone Wars and Rebels since you wouldn't have a clue who any of the new characters are or how they are relevant. Not to mention, Clone Wars really elevates the prequels and makes so much of what happens in them far more impactful. I would argue that it's essential viewing alongside the movies. Just keep in mind there are two versions - the one that went from 2008-2014 and 2020 is the one that introduces Ahsoka and is considered canon. The earlier 2003 version is no longer considered canon, but is stylistically a very unique entry into the Star Wars universe and introduced an important villain that appears in the 2008 version.

[@no_rubbernecking]

​@Gimil38 To the contrary, the series explains how there could be a rebellion in full swing during that time and Obi-Wan would know Vader survived and was out there trying to crush the rebellion, but Obi-Wan would not see it as his solemn duty to continue trying to kill him, once he knew that Vader was still alive. From the films, we know that Obi-Wan's assignment in this episode III was to kill Vader, and that he couldn't bring himself to decisively end it, but that he inflicted enough damage to reasonably assume that Vader couldn't survive without help. But we also know from the films that: 1. Eventually, Obi-Wan learned that Vader had survived and had been "rebuilt" by the Emperor into "more machine than man", but that Obi-Wan had still spent many years avoiding him until leaving Tatooine with Luke. 2. That by the time Obi-Wan and Luke see Leah's message pleading for help, Obi-Wan considered himself to be "getting too old for this sort of thing." 3. That Obi-Wan and Yoda wanted Luke to train and then face Vader because, by the time of episode V, Obi-Wan and Yoda together were too weak to finish the job. 4. That there was a time when Obi-Wan was younger, when he and Yoda knew that Vader had survived, but that Yoda had concluded that only Luke or Leah would ever be up to the task of killing Vader. 5. That by the beginning of ANH, even with the rebellion in full swing and Luke way past the normal age for training to begin, Obi-Wan still needed convincing from Leah to lift a hand in defense of the rebellion. So we're shown a picture by these films that there is some yet-unexplained reason that Obi-Wan would not still want to go after Vader at that point and that only a mortal threat to Leah would be enough to spur him once again to action. That strong impetus against action by Obi-Wan is explained by the circumstances surrounding their confrontations in the series. And the series also explains why specifically the danger to Leah would finally be sufficient to change Obi-Wan's mind and convince him to finally take up the mantle once more. ANH has Vader tell Obi-Wan that when they'd last met, Obi-Wan had been the master and Vader "the learner", but that now Vader was "the master" in the relationship. This is the only hint we're given as to the nature of that "last" confrontation. We're not given a timepoint for it. However, this state of affairs applies equally to both the ep.-III fight, _and_ to the subsequent battle in OWK. But that being said, there's one other clue from the films as to the history of Obi-Wan's involvement with Vader post-RotS: Leah's message states, "Years ago, you served my father in the Clone Wars. Now, he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire." As we'll eventually learn, Leah has this account wrong. Bail's last involvement with Obi-Wan was not in the Clone Wars, but subsequent to them, with both men's participation in the rebellion. But Leah knows this at the time she records the message. She is leaving that detail out for operational security. She knows Obi-Wan well enough to know that he'll immediately understand the assistance that she's really referring to and that this reference can have the needed impact on Obi-Wan to spur him to action. IOW, she already knows when she records that message, she knows from her and her father's personal history with Obi-Wan in the struggle against the Sith, that that history has prevented him from rejoining the fight, and that only a personal reference by her to that history has any hope of changing his mind. But take a moment and reflect: what is it about that history that places such a strong hold on Obi-Wan? What would explain the known facts that Obi-Wan has long known Vader survived the first confrontation, but that Obi-Wan has never til then felt obligated to go back and finally settle it one way or the other? It lies in the fact that he HAD, in fact, confronted him again, and found that, as he told Yoda here in the present video, he could never actually do it *because he could not bring himself to accept the responsibility for it!* Leah knew this, and worded her message accordingly. She said the one thing that only she could have said, to convince him it was worth it for him to actually be the final cause of Vader's death. The series OWK, with the length and structure of an epic film trilogy, tells the story of the events that led Leah, and finally Obi-Wan (through her), to this understanding.

​@Gimil38 Absolutely nothing in what I've written overrides the fourth episode, as proven irrefutably by the fact you haven't cited a single thing that does.

@Gimil38 2/ Just realized your lack of reading ability has caused you to to think I speculated on the existence of the rebellion during the 17-odd years between the prequels and the OT. So you apparently believe there was no rebellion at the time of ANH, or it was not known to Obi-Wan, both of which are clearly refuted by that episode. YOU are the one who has overridden that episode, *and you are the one who's made up a new set of facts (sans rebellion) for that period!* What an utter farce that you want to strike at my supposed political beliefs rather than get your facts straight in your mind.

The scene with the younglings always gets me, and I so appreciate that Lucas decided to go there. After that scene you know there's no 'easy return' for Anakin and it makes it all the more meaningful that in the end his redemption only happens 'in the eyes of his children' ... for the Galaxy he will remain stained forever by his deeds.

"I feel like Palpatine told him this on purpose"... Rewatch episode VI when the Emperor says, "Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen." He's been plotting and guiding all this for a very long time.

[@oxhine]

"The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural." Gives me chills every time. Love that opera scene. Hey, Ari! Well, you got wise to Palpatine before the reveal but still had a great reaction! Lucas provided visual and vocal cues since "Phantom Menace" that Palpatine and Sidious were one and the same. Ian McDiarmid plays the Emperor in all the Star Wars films in which he appears. He's the one character having a total blast throughout the prequels because he's pulling everybody's strings! His seduction of Anakin is masterful. The absolute best line of the Prequel trilogy goes to Natalie Portman: "So this is how liberty dies...with thunderous applause." Wookiees live for hundreds of years! In "Revenge of the Sith", Chewbacca is 181 years old! It is a popular belief that Padme's life force was drained out of her and channeled into Anakin by Palpatine which is why her death and his re-birth are juxtaposed by Lucas. Therefore, Palpy is directly responsible for the death of the person he convinced Anakin he could save prompting his betrayal of the Jedi in the first place! A very cruel manipulation. One of the Jedi Order's problems is that they had become ossified by dogma and had lost touch with their true purpose. This made them vulnerable to manipulation by the Sith and blind to their own shortcomings. Iconoclasts like Qui-Gon sought esoteric knowledge beyond ordained teachings to plumb deeper truths and were viewed as troublesome for suggesting the Order had become complacent and stagnant. The knowledge Yoda imparts to Obi-Wan at the end is his discovery of the path to immortality. His spiritual journey is chronicled in the animated "Clone Wars" when Liam Neeson returns as Qui-Gon Jinn's spirit to instruct Yoda in the deepest mysteries of the Force. Jedi immortality manifests as the Force-ghosts you see in the Classic trilogy. This was an ability unknown to the Order until Qui-Gon contacts Yoda which is why there are no Force-ghosts in the Prequel trilogy. The Jedi are all but exterminated by Order 66 much like how the Knights Templar were rounded up on a single day, Friday the 13th, in October 1307, by order of the French King Philip IV in a series of coordinated, simultaneous arrests. Emperor Palpatine initiated a smear campaign to vilify the Jedi and expunged any mention of them from the historical record. Philip IV did the same to the Templars demonizing them with false allegations of larceny, murder, sexual perversion, sedition and Satanism that led to their mass burning at the stake with the blessing of the Papacy! Palpy achieved control of a galaxy with his scheme while Philip was simply dodging the crushing debt he owed the Order! The clones are tragic pawns in Palpatine's scheme. They were bred by the Republic and were loyal to their creators serving through thick and thin with their Jedi Generals. The animated "Clone Wars" does a magnificent job of individualizing the troopers. However, they were engineered with a fail-safe to force them to obey executive decisions without question. Initiating Order 66 flips the switch in their brains forcibly turning them against the Jedi whom they previously would have died for. It's a horrifying betrayal not least of which to the clones themselves. Although the Separatist leadership was led by Count Dooku, they weren't privy to the collusion between Dooku and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Each Sith Lord led a faction in the Clone Wars to play both sides against each other creating chaos they could manipulate to their personal advantage! The populations of the worlds which aligned with one faction or the other truly believed in their respective causes which were socioeconomic and geopolitical. The layman had no idea he was just a pawn in Palpatine's grand scheme. With the Jedi exterminated, the greatest threat to his plan was taken off the board and he sent Vader to dispose of the Separatist leadership so he could consolidate power over the organizations they represented. The Separatist worlds relied on the support of those industries and institutions so those worlds would fall in line once those support systems were firmly in the Emperor's grip. The japor snippet pendant Amidala was buried wearing was the same one Anakin carved for her in "Phantom Menace". Senator Bail Organa orders C-3PO's mind to be wiped but R2-D2's CPU is left intact. Artoo REMEMBERS EVERYTHING! Your next stop is to revisit the Vader-Kenobi duel for an incredible update in SC-38 RE-IMAGINED by KZbinr FXitinPost!

"The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural." Especially when you know about the Extended Universe of Star Wars. That Darth Sidious/Palpatine's Master, Darth Plagueis knew how to manipulate midichlorians to... create life and cheat death. His master saved himself after Death (from being killed by his apprentice Palpatine). I was really hoping that Supreme Leader Snoke in the sequels was Darth Plagueis. This theory about Snoke, to me, was more solidified because of the theory that Darth Plagueis created Anakin and infused him with a high Midichlorian count that led to him being so strong in the Force. Ultimately, Plagueis planned Palpatine's takeover of the Republic and Anakin's downfall.

If you notice that's the last time r2 actually stays with the ship when he's told is when Anakin tells him in this one on mustafar. R2 doesn't make the same mistake twice 😂

[@simongodinez9411]

"The b!tch is fabulous" 😂😂

[@superpaytonmars8852]

31:59 Recall that Luke tells R2 to do the same thing in Empire, but R2 actively disobeys him. Because the last time someone told R2 to 'stay with the ship', it was Anakin, and he never came back.

[@Belnick6666]

Anakin did bring balance to the force when he saved his son and atomized the emperor.....bring an end to the star wars saga, which was a story about the tradgedy of Anakin Skywalker, the rest were just side characters, including Luke... Jedi vs Sith: Sith: "Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken." Jedi: "There is no emotion, there is peace. There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. There is no passion, there is serenity. There is no chaos, there is harmony"

[@Belnick6666]

tragedy

[@niklasriva7053]

Yea, Anakin fulfilled the Prophecy Qui Gon saw in Anakin. Lucas telling the story of how Anakin went from a SLAVE to a great jedi, to his downfall to a powerful Sith and to him fulfilling the Prophecy by atomizing(George Lucas word) the emperor and saving his son, bringing balance to the force.

[@user-kj5iu8bs1p]

Not sure you'll see this as it doesn't take long to be late to Star Wars or Star Trek comments. Your reaction & excitement to Ep 3 was great! In the end (just my opinion) the Vader helmet & suit (even tho needed as life support) were a prison for him. He was trapped by his own ambitions & choices & fears & then there was no redemption for him until Luke saved him. Star Wars is such a great story. It's so much more than just space battles.

[@sludgex9016]

I love how everyone gets excited when the clones arrive

[@LiveEvilProductions0]

[@balintkovacs4089]

I just binged all your Star Wars reactions and I have to say it was very cheerful to watch you fall into this rabbit hole with us ^^ Now there is only 5 more movies, 4 animated and 4 live action series to go XD (Also just an off note: Each video you're just getting prettier ^^)

I had such a good time watching this! Always nice to see someone enjoy this movie for the first time. You’re also hilarious! Can’t wait for more.

[@mrwatermelo50]

31:59 R2 got told to stay on the ship by Ani not just once. This is one of the saddest scenes for me cause it´s very impactful That´s the last time he saw his master The last time he will listen to stay on the ship later when Luke tells him he will not let that happen to his son Because we all now R2 could´ve saved the galaxy and Ani like he did many times before

[@Beardofdeath]

You make so many references to other nerdy and pop culture things that It's absolutely mind-boggling how you've never seen these. I love your reactions.

Greatest Star Wars movie in entire series

[@ragingsithmaster]

34:35 "What is he DOING?!" He can't control his rage anymore. His mind is poisoned and he can't see anything other than betrayal from those he was close to.

[@guggelguggel7491]

Apparently there's a cut concept/script of Padme at mustufar pulling a knife on Anakin. Honestly, I feel like that'd been more impactful.

[@austingray6885]

George also cut out a whole subplot of Palpatine lying to Anakin about Padme having an affair with Obi Wan which strengthens the context of some of their dialogue

[@jerrykessler2478]

I would like to suggest that you watch Episodes 7, 8 and 9 to judge for yourself the quality of the sequels. For me, Episode 7 in particular brought back all the nostalgic feelings of A New Hope. You're lovely and a great pleasure to watch.

[@wyatt7465]

i think Anakin himself explained in episode two, that the Jedi are encouraged to express their feelings. but they themselves couldn't hold on to those feelings, as they could cloud their judgement or force them to make decisions that would do more harm than good. like what Yoda said to him, attachment can lead to jealousy.

[@eddieboncek2447]

I always find it crazy that Anakin basically becomes evil to keep Padme from dying, yet, ironically, it's the things he does and plans to do to "save her" is what causes her to lose the will to live! Essentially, his dream of her death, becomes self fulfilling, meaning that everything he does to stop the dreams from becoming reality is exactly what causes them to become true.

[@mainstarter3380]

Love you Ari, keep growing and doing your own thing.

[@valek005]

Life lesson. Art is never garbage. Watch the sequels. Embrace what you love about them and let what you don't fade into the background. 🙂

That was poetry 🫶🏽

I can't stand the sequels myself, but that's a wise perspective. Indeed, art is subjective. Take what you will from it, and let others do the same.

It was Palpoten's voice that gave it away in episode 1 for me & I watched episode IV in the theatre way back when.

[@igood45]

Been binge watching your reactions and you are doing such a great job. You do this channel how you want, it makes you unique and I have loved all of your reactions. As for the prequels this one was by far the best and hardest hitting. I can tell that you are not just doing this for the views because you are wanting to find out more about the lore from others and it makes these reactions even better in my opinion because I can see the real feelings you are getting from these absolute classics. I would definitely repeat what others have said and at least look up the essential episodes for the Clone Wars series as it will add so much to your Star Wars journey and it cuts down the viewing time by a ton. Plus you get to see everyone's favorite, Ahsoka Tano. Believe me they wrote her character to be annoying in the first couple seasons but she soon becomes an amazing character.

[@Kepora1]

I can confirm that there was no man with a dry eye in the theater with that final Obi-Wan and Anakin dialogue.

[@wick3dbandit]

Cutest reactor I've ever seen. Also, when you're a long-time fan and hear "What's order 66?" the Frozen meme "I'm going to tell him" comes to mind. I'd totally be down to see more SW reactions from Ari. I recommend doing the Clone Wars, Rebels and The Bad Batch now. First couple of CW seasons are rough but once you get deep into it you'll seen the franchise differently and why so many love Dave Filoni now. Also Socials?

[@roywilson4514]

Thank you!! Yeah I held in to not watching Star Wars cause the shock on people’s faces was so funny , but I had to give in eventually & I’m glad I did 🥺 & all I have is TikTok , it’s the same handle , but I RARELY post on it lol

[@Drudenfusz]

First time watching anything on your channel. Sure, Clone Wars is a lot of seasons, but there is plenty of stuff happening in it that still affects the franchise, but more important, I would say it shows greatly how Anakin and Obi-Wan really worked together and really had a friendship. Also, the Clone Wars series gets really good in later seasons. The sequels are kinda weak, but I can recommend Rogue One and the Andor TV show, which are incredible good live action Star Wars.

[@adityaakaul]

Anakin: "I'm afraid someone I love will die." Yoda: "Death is a natural part of life." Keep that in mind when you wonder what eventually made Anakin snap. He was responsible for his actions, but the Jedi didn't help the situation.

[@quellenathanar]

Yes. This played like a sci-fi version of a Greek tragedy, re: the Jedi and their abstaining from strong emotional attachments. I think that is Master Yoda's interpretation, and since he is the elder council member, the Jedi are trained under his direction, or at least his influence.

[@NuclearFridge1]

That was a big part of the problem with the Jedi... Yoda. He'd been around for centuries, leading the Jedi. He outlived thousands of people. I dare say the Jedi could not even imagine that anyone could take his place. The big thing is... A single person can make mistakes. Worse, not even REALIZE they make mistakes. Yoda did not, could not accept that he might be in the wrong. And that ended up costing many people everything 😢

[@brendacastillo3273]

Hola ari! Gracias por complacernos, te ves superguapa!! Cada vez que veo a alguien reaccionar a star wars solo espero a que llegue el episodio 3, este es el de las emociones de verdad..

[@mogwiawolf4354]

And yes we do know that but Anakin still brought balance to the force when he destroyed the emporer on the death star

[@kyWalker__09]

the reason why the clones turned against the jedi so quickly is cus they have an inhibitor chip inside their heads whichs a switch that makes all of the clones will go away and be basically droids

[@cheesemuffin8129]

Again you don´t react to the best parts you talking during the conversation with palpatine and anakin. For the future Please stop that and just listen and react to the scenes for god sake!!!

First of all, please do not tell me how to do my videos on MY channel. I cannot sit and just watch the movie and not say anything. That’s not me reacting to anything. That’s just me watching a movie.
