Why Darth Plagueis Was SCARED of Anakin in The Phantom Menace (LEGENDS)

[@DLR1997]

Which he was. Anakin was born because of him

[@hermansoberanis8885]

Thanks to channels like Retney’s Holocron is how fans have the knowledge of the Star Wars Lore thank you very much.

fr tho a year ago I watched A New Hope because I was so bored and began to watch the rest of the Star Wars movies. Back when I was in school my friends used to tell me Star Wars was for nerds and said to myself I would never watch Star Wars but now I like it so much Im more and more interested in all the different characters stories I can sometimes relate to them

babe wake up, new Retney’s upload

[@RetneysHolocron]

This is my favorite comment ever

[@novosprotos]

Why was Darth Plagueis not in the movies I wonder?

[@FrostedSeagull]

I completely agree with you. Darth Plagueis: Came to prominence after the novel by James Luceno. Confusion I had read somewhere that Darth Plagueis had been killed many years prior to the events of The Phantom Menace. More Confusion The author of Revenge of the Sith, Matt Stover, also strongly hints at this. Darth Sidious is hundreds of years old. We are told this as the four Jedi Masters including Mace Windu, prepare to take on Sidious. The clairvoyant Jedi Master 'senses' Sidious. Sidious is hundreds of years old and dressed in old clothes. The inference hear meaning that Sidious incorporates the essence of ALL previous Sith Masters. That's Sith MASTER'S and NOT just Sith Lords. Mass Confusion We are then told Plagueis was alive until Anakin was about 11 years old. Both Plagueis and Sidious had been throwing the Force off balance via their experiments with the Dark side of the Force and meddling with the midi chlorians.

Welcome to the terrible amount of retrofixes with star wars.

He was. Jar Jar Binks hahaha

[@jaymilo8425]

I guess this is why you should start with episode 1 instead of 4

[@brokenbridge6316]

Plaugeis's own actions coming back to bite him. That's how I see his reactions to Anakin.

[@ESowder24]

But wouldn’t that break the rule of two ? Dooku being the apprentice

[@the1nonly_481]

He wasn't an apprentice at the time Just a friend confiding in another as he said

[@PortugueseLMPAO]

But than what about Maul?

[@stephanwalters5963]

It's 00:00 and I'm watching this video, what a time🔥🔥

[@SaucyboyShaun]

This makes sense as to why the force gave anakin his destiny from the start

[@jowoman7799]

I hope Darth Plagueis is still alive in canon. Knowing that he was watching Anakin during the movie and terrified of him. Like how Tales of the Jedi did for Dooku during The Phantom Menace.

[@RetneysHolocron]

Who knows! He was definitely killed by Palpatine at some point, but the Legends version is definitely different.

[@jowoman7799]

​@RetneysHolocron I'd love if the legends novel became canon. But knowing LucasFilm, they'd like to do their own version again of him. Which I'm okay with. I just hope they do something soon because the time period with him and Palpatine is very interesting.

[@benengle9621]

@@jowoman7799 I'd love to see the Darth Bane trilogy

[@benengle9621]

(Protagonist perspective being evil would be something most moviegoers wouldn't be used to, but should succeed with expectation subversion)

[@dipperdandy]

@@benengle9621 I mean, Mafia movies do it all the time. The Sopranos is one of the most celebrated shows of all time and Tony is NOT a good dude.

[@joakimareskoug1437]

In canon tho, the story that Palps tells Anakin about plagueis ability to rezz the dead, was a lie. A bribe so to speak to push him towards the dark side; and a way for Palps to find out that he had nightmares about Padme, as Ani had about his mother.

[@benengle9621]

Sideous was the source of both those nightmares so he didn't have a need to "learn" about Anakin's dreams

[@RetneysHolocron]

Where is it stated that Palpatine caused Anakin's nightmares?

[@jowoman7799]

​@RetneysHolocron It's never stated, but it's the theory people use. Like how Palpatine knew that Padmé was going to die without Anakin telling him.

[@joakimareskoug1437]

@@jowoman7799 no he figured it out by bating Ani with that bogus Plagueis-story. Thats why he turns his head menacingly and says: "Not from a jedi." ... Palps then knew that Ani had both the dreams again and taken the bait.

[@benengle9621]

Wow

[@BobbyMoore2-mp8wb]

He became a Jedi Master anyway

[@JasonON]

Who? Anakin? Anakin never attained the title of Master.

[@magusmelanie828]

​@@JasonONonly a master of evil

[@jowoman7799]

Only in your mind, my very young apprentice.

[@jrlpixels421]

He's on the council but denied the rank of Master.

[@kiahrobinson5092]

He was ‘master’ to ahsoka 😊

[@darthqui-gon5986]

For one Darth Plagueis is my favorite EU book. It states at the end that Palpatine was the one that created Anakin. Now the real world explanation as from George Lucas from the making of Revenge of the Sith book, Palpatine actually tells Anakin that he was the one that manipulated the midichlorians and created him and he tells Anakin in a sense I am father. So I think that cements the fact who Anakin's real father is. Darth Plagueis taught Darth Sidious everything he knows. But Lucas cut the dialogue because he felt it took away from Darth Vader's revelation

[@slyktech1860]

Three there are a Master, an apprentice and an apprentice of the apprentice? Why did they break the Rule of Two?

[@RetneysHolocron]

Plagueis wanted to end the rule of two. He allowed Palpatine to train Maul as an assassin

[@dipperdandy]

Because evil?

[@benengle9621]

Maul wasn't supposed to be a full Sith Lord but Sideous trained him fully anyway. That's also part of the perpetuation of the Rule of Two. The apprentice challenges the master when they've found their own student

[@jaymilo8425]

Gotta love how star wars just randomly makes up crap to try and makes previous crap make sense and just creating more and more plot holes

[@user-zj7qd5dq4w]

To be honest, the legend books seem odd compared to the movie's.

Whys this guy talk like a CNN reporter
