If you want to check out the version with John Williams music it is unlisted in the "LFP Animations" playlist on my channel. Due to copyright I am keeping Holst as the main soundtrack for the public version as it avoids copyright infringement. Thanks! Edit: John Williams version is now public on my channel.

If Holst was good enough for John Williams, he’s good enough for us.

i love classical music, so it doesnt bother me! 😁😁

What our parents saw when we were children: Young kid is making weird sounds with LEGO. What we saw when we were children:

[@camo6465]

I like how Tarkin said “the Jedi will be fine” because it can be ambiguously interpreted He’s seen what the Jedi are capable of, knowing they’ve survived a lot of crazy stuff, so he likely knows they can survive an attack on the ship Or, he genuinely doesn’t care about whether or not the Jedi can survive, so he says “they’ll be fine” as a hand-wave. “If they survive, they survive. If they don’t, they don’t.”

[@MrMultiRage]

Or he knew about the Chancellor being on board and being a Sith, and meant to say, that their actions are going to save the Jedi Order not just some individual Jedi. He's playing 5d Chess.

[@theliato3809]

He thought highly of anakin so he knew theyd be fine.

Tarkin speaking like someone who knows he can easily succeed the chancellor if anything bad happens to him…

[@MikeCordeiro666]

Nah, it's all part of Palpatine's plan. Everything was. The whole battle, the Grievous Ship attack, was all to test Anakin. To see if he was fit to replace Dooku as his apprentice.

[@stonethered]

Republic Officer: The Chancellor was aboard that ship. Tarkin, who discussed this plan with the Chancellor that morning: And very likely still is. I am heading down to the surface to assume command of the rescue operations immediately, Captain.

[@_MaZTeR_]

@@MikeCordeiro666 In Legends, Palpatine apparently ordered Grievous to begin the attack, because the Jedi were investigating his building at the Works (the one where Palpatine meets with Dooku at the end of Episode 2 and also in Tales of Jedi, where Dooku kills Yaddle), which was full of Sith artifacts and other incriminating items. So the whole battle was a huge distraction in addition that Palpatine saw an opportunity to test Anakin as well. In the Episode 3 novel, the Jedi still apparently manage to find some kind of tunnel leading to Palpatine's private apartment, which caused the Jedi to suspect that one of Palpatine's inner circle must be Sidius. Windu suspected that Palpatine can't be him, as he was already pretty much controlling the Republic, though he suspected that Palpatine was merely a puppet.

[@Warsie]

Tarkin couldn't succeed the Chancellor. A military coup wouldn't work. The vice chair (mas amadedda who I'm sure was on the Sith Plan) would become Chancellor then. The Senate was still in control even if it was full of Palpatine supporters.

[@ToonBros]

This is a fantastic brickfilm! The CGI was incredible! It was really great to see a different perspective from the Battle of Coruscant.

[@mariosbrother6845]

the shot at 3:08 is just something special, it looks flawless. fantastic job with the whole thing

[@Aidan-es5wk]

The blend of CGI and stop motion is incredible! I can’t imagine how long this would have taken

[@BlayneFX]

It never occurred to me before that the republic took town general Grevious' ship despite them knowing the Chancellor was being held captive on there, not to mention two Jedi generals. I guess it could have been self-defense but they really unloaded on them lol, they had to have known! Nice animation, the 3D renders look really nice, a lot going on in each shot.

[@kennyroberson5726]

If it was Tarkins ship that fired on it, then it was very much on purpose. He had his own Grand Design and hated the Jedi and current order which is why the Empire worked out for him so well.

[@Trispefear]

I wouldn’t be surprised if the chancellor made the order

[@_MaZTeR_]

In the Episode 3 novel, Needa (yes the same guy who Vader choked in Episode 5), the captain of that Venator, was hailing Grievous, who told him that Palpatine supposedly was on the ship, but Needa didn't believe it, so he gave Grievous 10 minutes to prove that he isn't talking bs. Palpatine already had escaped at that point and I'm pretty sure Grievous at that moment figured out Dooku had died as well, so he basically cut the call short and Needa then opened fire on the ship.

I really like that some minifigs used in this are from 2005, when EP III and its sets were originally released!

[@toldham1234]

Honestly the opening made me think about something new, how many ships crashed into the planet?? Like how much collateral was there truly

[@subzero8644]

Dude, if I’m being honest, this is the absolute best recreation I have ever seen on the topic of the battle of coruscant. The effects, the CGI was just on point and the extra scenes were honestly needed for that little bit of extra.

[@johnathanclayton2887]

I love the holst's planets Mars music! Great fit, and definitely inspired the John Williams score.

[@mrxsatyr8459]

This was amazing, I loved the slow falling pieces of lego that came from the republic ship in the beginning

[@MessyRook09]

2:10 just wowed me like it did the first time i watched the movie. Well done mate. Also the music was a great choice, as apparently John Williams was inspired be Holst when writing music for Star Wars. Also quick question, are the Venators mocs or real sets?

[@LFPAnimations]

Im glad you enjoyed it. All the big ships are MOCs and you can see the credits for the creators in the description or at the end of the video! Used with permission.

[@dankmotionsstudios5161]

The production value of this film was REALLY great in terms of visual polish. Everything CGI felt really grounded, and it was composited very well. I feel like it DEFINITELY could have benefited from some more defined sound design. Felt like it could have carried more intensity just like the original battle of coruscant, and a few of the sfx choices puzzled me. CGI elements are a 10/10. Practical elements are a 5/10. Sound elements are a 6/10

Edit: halfway through watching i also clocked the soundtrack. Using Mars instead is cool. It actually fits star wars so well.
