The Clone Wars show makes this movie 10x better

[@IdoloR]

It makes this movie make sense. Chest infection Grievous is because Windu crushes his chest with the force. The relationships between Jedi and Clone soldiers is developed. The Padawan graduation moment is dope. Damn, so good. Watch Clone Wars 2D by Tartakovsky (Samurai Jack creator)

[@NoSurprisesDrew]

Yeah both clone wars shows make this movie better, but that’s the case with all of prequel material. Better writers taking the basic good concepts of Lucas and actually...making them good

Nick lost me when he says "Clones that no one gives a shit about" I was like yeah he definitely hasn't watched the animated show. Clones were essential and though they are all the same, have their own unique personalities.

As much as I love the Gendy show, it's nonsense that this movie's plot is completely leveraged by it

[@Gabagu]

I can't be the only one that thinks the Clone Wars feels like so much filler, and Anakin and Obi Wan there just aren't the same, different vibe, Anakin is the generic war hero, and the writing is the most generic thing it could possibly be, especially in that procedural format.

This movie has the absolute best intro in my opinion. The standard view of space followed by the slow drums. We then see the two fighters fly in and fly over the Venator class destroyer (which is arguably one of the coolest ships to me). Then the camera pans over the destroyer and we see the chaos of war of Coruscant. So fucking cool. Just thinking about it gets me so excited. edit: Also the music in this part of the movie is great

[@soberhippy8240]

TBH if you watch Clone wars and then go into Revenge of the Sith it makes the whole "we were brothers Anakin" thing make a lot more sense.

He cuts his "rat tail" off, because he is no longer a padawan. In the novelization of the movie he gifts his cut "rat tail" to padme as token of something that is dear to him, a symbol that has some how defined his entire existence to that point in time.

[@cloudystorm7314]

[@vinnybastos]

Star Wars overall is awesome. I find it nearly impossible to hate it on any level. I used to despise the prequels, but this last rewatch was very cool and I found myself appreciating many aspects to some degree; I at least respect the effort and the concepts, even if the execution is lacking. And this one has the most going for it. Great action, good acting (in some parts), closure, Palpatine hamming it up like he should, and true darkness and stakes.

[@tarekahmed992]

Why should Palpatine be hamming it up? He is supposed to be the mastermind villain with awesome charisma yet comes across as a joke and a pantomime villain

[@vinnybastos]

@@tarekahmed992 To me he has AMAZING charisma. Up to the point where he reveals himself he is very subdued. His evil plan, many years in the making is brilliant and he pulls one over the entire Galaxy, and yet he plays the stoic politician all the way through. His entire scene with Anakin at the Opera is probably the best scene of the prequels, the surefire seduction of Anakin through his weaknesses, after years caring and grooming him for this moment. And when he wins, his unbriddled enthusiasm is a sight to behold, in my opinion. He goes up to eleven and is joyous!!

[@kingh6647]

@@vinnybastos You have a beautiful imagination, I'm jealous.

[@vinnybastos]

@@kingh6647 I just like liking things. I've known these films are terrible since the day they came out. This time I actually tried seeing what's good about them. Still a LOT of wrong. But some enjoyable things are there

[@LoganFerguson]

1. There were support braces under the walkway that landed on Obi-Wan. Took me a few viewings to notice that and wonder why Obi-Wan wasn't crushed. 2. Only Anakin and Palpatine know exactly how Dooku was killed. The half of the ship his body was on broke off and presumably burned up in the atmosphere or crashed into the planet (ouch) or just straight blew up. It could be stuck in a decaying orbit, allowing it to be searched and his body to be found, but considering the front half was dragged down by the gravity of the planet, I think it's safe to assume the back half was as well. 3. Palpatine heavily relies on force visions of the future to orchestrate his plans. However, it's NOT implied that he understands, and plans for, that the future is always in motion and visions seen may not come true. Or perhaps, the dark side of the force is better capable of seeing the "actual" future. 4. TBH, I stopped paying attention with about an hour left.

[@Epiousios18]

I don't understand watching a movie like this and trying to nitpick every single choice and scene. I just watch these movies and take them for what they are, and I usually find them enjoyable even if they aren't "great" movies.

[@tarekahmed992]

So why don’t you do this for the new ones then assuming you dislike them?

[@Epiousios18]

tarek ahmed TLJ is probably my third favorite Star Wars movie and I’d rank TFA above any of the prequels and probably Ep. 6 as well. I do like them. I don’t really think there is a “bad” Star Wars film (although AoTC comes close).

[@tarekahmed992]

[@johnsantisteban7362]

Kevin looking smooth and Watto 😭😭😭😭😭 just Watto 😭😭😭😭😭

[@TheDarman]

I truly unapologetically love this movie. I love the first act with Dooku, Anakin, and Obi-Wan. It felt like a Star Wars opening to me for the first time in the prequels. While the middle is rough, I think the ideas that they pursue are great. And, then, once Order 66 happened, it gets right back to the movie I love. But everyone is entitled to their opinion.

[@CrossOutBryce]

Kevin's hair looks REALLY good. Damn, dude!

[@amiadfredman]

Palpatine says plagus could influence the medichloreans and create life. I'm sure this is already a theory, but sounds pretty good for palpatine (who is either plagus or the podewan) actually creating anikan from the force (ie there was no father). Thoughts?

Plenty of Jedi survive Order 66 in Canon. A big part of Vader's responsibilities is to hunt down survivors. Yoda, Ahsoka, Kanan, Obi-Wan, Quinlan Vos off the top of my head.

[@TheRatsCast]

You have to remember that the Jedi and Sith can both see visions of the future. The only difference is; the Jedi don't put as much stock in those visions because the future is always changing. Whereas with the Sith; they try to use those visions to force the future into their own making. That's what the Emperor was trying to do. He could sense Anakin's power; then tried to see his future to manipulate it to his ends. The story is just so convoluted; it seems ridiculous that he knew what he was doing, verse it just being chance.

Honestly, as you guys are recapping the scenes...I can vividly remember John Williams score for the majority of the movie.

I have to say, has one of my all time favorite scenes in Star Wars and that is the scene where Anakin finds out Padme is pregnant. Say what you will about Hayden Christensen's performance but he's great in that scene. He manages to run the gambit of shock, fear, happiness and back to fear again in a couple seconds without saying barley any words. He's going through all the emotions he would be experiencing after that news.

The problems in continuity regarding Owen Lars, is that during the making of A New Hope he was supposed to be Obi-Wan's brother, not Anakin's, but Lucas inexplicably changed it for the PT. Again, Lucas makes a retcon for no good reason that causes a huge inconsistency in logic.
