This Emmy Award-nominated documentary (for Outstanding Non-fiction Special, Outstanding Writing [Non-fiction], and Outstanding Directing [Non-fiction]) explores the mythological and historical underpinnings of the Star Wars saga, through interviews with scholars, artists, and politicians of our time. Produced in 2007, it highlights the depth and breadth of the franchise as created by George Lucas.

What I like about the Prequels is that they highlight political oppression's psychological roots in the individual: individual human weakness lays the ground for dictatorships and mob rule to take shape.
People criticized the prequels because of politics, and miss the point. Apparently politics are so easily taken for granted that it flies over our heads even when talking about it.
it is also exactly what trump is threatening right now. don't forget history is repeating itself ..twice in fact.
- and Jar Jar Binks was truly central to this
@@sharonbeckerle5419 My thoughts EXACTLY!!!!
54:13 -52:24. An emo kid with issues. That's definitely one way to describe Anakin's character in the prequels and I love every minute of it. People hate this but from a storytelling and writing standpoint, it makes perfect sense and works really well. If a character is gonna become darth vader, most likely he's gonna be a very emotionally troubled and stunted person with issues👍👍
Seeing Peter Jackson here is like watching an old friend before something life-changing hit them hard (like the making of The Hobbit). Its honestly a shame that for all the negative comparisons to George he drew for those films, I feel like cinema is a poorer place without him and George around.
Seeing JJ Abrams is like going back in time and seeing Judas after the betrayal.
Before the betrayal*
From a certain point of view, you're entirely deluded
I remember when this premiered on the History Channel back when I was 11/12. I had a friend who lived in the apartment building down the road that I'd frequently play outside with, and I remember us both dropping our plastic hasbro lightsabers to rush to our respective apartments to watch it so this brings back fond childhood memories. Thank you for preserving this documentary.
I was 27,damn I feel old🤣. The history channel was still really cool at that time,there was a great documentary a year later about Batman to coincide with the release of TDK
Same
I have it on tape
What did you learn about the jesuits?
I was 12 too, but I just found this toay😂
Rick Worley brought me back here. Thank you.

This Documentary really makes me (a big Star Wars fan) appreciate the franchise and the story as a whole so much more. You truly get to see how the story unfolds. Anakin’s rise, fall, and redemption was comprehended very well; and I think this documentary helps maybe some fans appreciate the prequel’s a little more. I certainly appreciate them a lot more than when I first saw them growing up. Sure the execution in aspects of the films weren’t there but the story itself was there. George Lucas truly is an amazing story teller and I appreciate his work on this Franchise so much!
BLOODY WELL SAID 👏 👌 😌
Yes. Lucas is my favorite story teller!!!
Finally a History Channel documentary where fantasy is welcomed
The fact JJ speaks so confidently yet made two raspberries is galling
Source?
@@starwarsprequelsandsequels7582 LOL you're asking for a source on an opinion?
JJ Abrams saw Star Wars as a kid and thought, I can't wait until I grow up so I can ruin this whole story.
Don't think that's particularly fair given that he had to rush-direct episode IX with a gun pointed at his back. It was going to be a dumpster fire no matter who directed it.
@@Danobot11Okay and whats your excuse for The Farce Awakens?
@@VadersFist95 your snowflake tears
@@VadersFist95force awakens made over a billion dollars and got people excited for episode 8. Tf u mean?
It wasn’t JJ Abram it was the rising political woke toxic feminist movement that was taking over that really ruined it

You know what is crazy, I had Dr. Carl Silvio as an English Professor for three semesters at MCC, different courses, but any time i look back on this documentary, its weird to see him so young in this
This documentary is great and gives you a respect for the whole story of Star Wars. The Disney trilogy was really rough to watch because all of the hard work the characters went through in the other movies- turns out it was all for nothing. It has been more or less revealed that the Disney movie did not have a story planned ahead of time and it shows. I personally don’t consider the Disney trilogy canon.
💯 agree
AGREE WHOLE HEARTEDLY 😊‼️‼️‼️
I said the same thing about the last Matrix movie. With Neo giving his life for peace between man and machine was all for nothing.
The themes of the sequels followed the themes of the first 6. This documentary should make watching the sequels better, you can see where TFA and TLJ built their themes from. TROS was when it went off the rails somewhat 😊
Finally someone says it the Disney trilogy devalues everything that happens in the original trilogy and they completely ignore the prequels trilogy everything was disconnected.
Real fans realize that this is the true Star Wars documentary, and that the story ends at return of the Jedi.
Thank you for uploading this, I remember watching this as a wee 10 year old. It was the first time I was given insight on the inspirations & foreshadowing behind Star Wars.
It was an awesome time for the franchise, the hype was still around even after episode III. Obviously people still had issues with the prequels, but it was no where near as bad as the derailed flaming Disney train.
I remember being so enthralled with the idea of episode 7 and onwards, I used to make up my own stories while playing with the action figures in the living room. Honestly I miss the feeling of being excited for anything star wars.
Same
Great Documentary! Loved the narrator... I for one hope that in another 20 seasons or so of Oak Island they get deep enough to discover a lightsaber and then for another 10 seasons drag out that it all did indeed happen a long time ago, but the galaxy was not that far, far Away. One can only wait... I live in Hope.
Thank you for this! I've been waiting for an HD version of this for years!
Ditto. Loved this and had on crap quality.
Wasn't this included on the Star Wars 1-6 bluray set from 2011?
@@AceLM92 Unfortunately, no. You may be thinking about Star Wars Tech.
@@bonorbitz ah maybe
31:28 It took me two decades to realize that Leia was mocking Tarkin's accent lol
Yeah I thought I was the only one that thought she had a not so subtle British or mid Atlantic accent accent on Tantive IV and her confrontation with Tarkin for the first 30 seconds
Carrie once said "I recognized your foul stench when I was brought onboard needed to be said as poshly as possible."
Thank you thank you thank you! This is my favorite documentary History Channel has ever dished out and to see it in non-potato quality has me giddy as hell!
Wasn't this included on the Star Wars 1-6 bluray set from 2011?
If you own Disney + and haven't checked it out yet, look up Star Wars: Empire of Dreams. It's another amazing documentary that tells the story of the creation of the original trilogy, and even has the same narrator as this one.
@@AceLM92 I'm not sure! What's crazy is that I had that collection but lost it in a move. I never checked the bonus feature while I had it :'(
Sith based from mythologies:
Darth maul = demon
Count dooku = dracula
Grievous = skeleton
Darth vader = grim reaper
Palpatine = lucifer
From my researchs I would assign them this way:
Darth Maul = Asura
Count Dooku = Asura
Grievous = Daeva / Ahrimanic Demon (fallen angel below Asura)
Darth Vader = Satan (Demon Kali, Asuradeva of materialism, compare to the west: England / USA)
Palpatine = 666 (Hiranyaksha, the Asura king, compare to europe i.e. nationalsocialism)
Jabba the Hood = Lucifer (Asuradeva of esotericism, compare to the east: Asia)
Luke Skywalker = Kalki (10. Avatar of Vishnu)
I love this documentary, it really encapsulates how and why Star Wars was so popular.
1:20:43 i'm willing to bet that by saying that, it's another hint of Anakin climbing his way to the surface because of how sincere he sounds. It sounds like he's given up and that he's trapped in the cycle forever after trying so many times to pull away, either as himself or as Darth Vader. Also the fact that he feels like he is unforgivable and irredeemable. He destroyed his entire world in the pursuit of power which began as a question save his wife's life. He has lost all hope.
Its truly great. You must believe you can reedem yourself to, well, redeem yourself and help others
I really miss the real stories of Star Wars: Original Trilogy, Prequel/Origin Trilogy, The Force Unleashed 1-2, and Expended Universe/Legends.
What about The Clone Wars?
That too.
@@kunlesanders Did you watch the series finale in May?
I did not. Because I was busy doing other stuff.
@@kunlesanders Fair enough. We don't have as much time as we'd like.
I miss loving star wars. My entire childhood it was my prime obsession. For all the faults of the Prequels, George captured my imagination and inspired my creativity in a way that it remains foundational to my core being. Nowadays....well, I miss when I loved star wars.
Get back into real Star Wars by reading and listening to the expanded universe and following eu content creators on RUclips
@@bigbird2240 I already do. Got the Revan audiobook at the moment that I'm working through. But everything I love is mostly considered non canon anymore.
We just lost James Earl Jones and has now become one with the force with Carrie Fisher
This is my favorite documentary, I just wish it was on Blu-ray.
Wish it was on Disney Plus, that'd do
If you have the Stat Wars Complete Saga blu ray box set from 2011, this is a bonus feature on one of the discs
@@AceLM92It's not. You're thinking of Star Wars Tech.
@@zoetropeguardian Could've sworn this was included. Oh well
@@AceLM92 I wish it was but sadly it's not. There are a lot of other good features though. Like the in-depth look at the Lucasfilm Archives. It's always fun to see the costumes and designs in detail.
Not gonna lie, the fact they got Jim Raynor's (StarCraft) voice actor to narrate this was pretty amazing. From one sci-fi space opera universe to another!
This is a brilliant Star wars documentary probably my favourite opens up your mind I have learnt so much and star wars is very deep there is loads and loads and I mean loads to star wars it's incredible interesting I have studied star wars for years but there so much to learn and take in on many levels star wars is my passion I love it so much it has helped me and still helps me to this day it calls to me this is the way 💯💯
Damn you must be pretty disappointed bei the sequels then.
1:24:20 Reminds me of the Mandalorian S2 final
Oh my goodness yea
I'm still having a difficult time coping with Lucas selling to Disney. So much promise in this original made of mythology from this one man's brain. In Disney with all of their various executives and writers can't get a damn thing right. You're the one Lucas! You are the best.
Watch the Adventures version of Young Indiana Jones if you've not seen it. It helped me so much with the grieving process. It captures the wonder and love that Star Wars used to have.
James Earl Jones has become one with the force
The thing about Lucas' Star Wars, is that he had "Strong Women"... yet didn't "beat us over the head with it". They just were, and there were reasons WHY they were in the positions they were in. So we accepted it without question. We didn't NEED to be "told" that they were strong women and should be celebrated because they were strong women. Leia, we knew, had been raised in a political family, so it was natural that she was a politician. Padme', pretty much the same. But they were both "feisty", who challenged authority, and it seemed pretty damned natural. THAT is what has been lost these days.
It’s writing 101. Show don’t tell. We don’t want to be told women characters can do everything men do. We want to see them do it.
Also all Jedi have had to go through their trials and tribulations, whether they were male or female, even if it was off screen. Rey is just a Mary Sue who can do anything and fight anyone and we’re expected to love her because she’s female. Whether she was male or female I would have hated the character because you can’t just make someone invincible without training or a backstory, that’s just bad writing
Another key factor that seems to be lost on a lot of the modern day women of Star Wars - or rather, fictional women in general - is their femininity.
Leia was good but Padme was stale af
@@nomorelibsplease1975r Padme didn't start out that way, though, which is the sad part. She began just as bada** as her daughter, but deleting certain key scenes from "Revenge of the Sith" cheapened that a great deal. (11/18/2021)
Awesome Star Wars documentary along the lines of the phenomenal Empire of Dream Star Wars documentary.I. love how the commentators bring up the women of Star Wars & how they are not only integral to the story & the hero’s journey, but are strong individuals who maintain the femininity & maternal aura without being overt. They aren’t the insufferable in-you-face Girl Boss like Brie Larson IRL or her factuous on screen persona Captain Marvel. The Star Wars females are smart, clever, industrious & beautiful without being propagandized detritus. Modern directors & writers could learn a thing or two from Lucas who was always ahead of his time & a few steps ahead of others in myriad ways whether it was filmmaking, marketing or strong female characters.
So glad they did this documentary. It only shows how epically Disney failed.
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Ironic that JJ Abrams is in this program, acting as if he actually understands Star Wars and respects George Lucas's work. He would go on to make embarrassing subversions.
0:25 'star wars evolved into a SIX episode saga'
... exactly! That's what I keep saying.
Only 6 there are. No more, no less.
Yes sir 100 perfect. 1 through 6 is the real story.
I've said it many times - Kathleen Kennedy is a hack, and so is Rian Johnson. They both betrayed Lucas, filling the sequels with radical feminism and politically correct garbage. George never did any of that.
And the superior EU.
Nice. Would you like a cookie?
this is the best thing that happend to 21th century in media, may the force be with you!
For anyone who wonders why Disney Star Wars is so hated watch this documentary.
I’m watching this cuz it’s my homework for school and I have to fill out thousands of notes
I love this documentary… can never get enough of it 💯💯
This documentary is one of the best things I have ever watched.
36:16 I sincerely hope that we see a wedding between Han and Leia in which he reflects on this line and says "When we saved you on the Death Star, the kid - your brother- promised me there would be more than I could ever imagined. I told him"I don't know, I can imagine quite a bit." I don't have to say this, but I was wrong. The reward more than I could ever imagine. The reward was you."
Cringe 1000000000%
I love seeing JJ Abrams pop up in this opining about the depth and meaning of a story he would go on to help dismantle and cheapen.
@@Voltar Agree JJ was planning to put Luke in the force awakens more but refused saying he would up stage the new characters but that just shows he a terrible story teller.
@@jaieregilmore971 Indeed. Just ask any Star TREK fan.
Very cool. Try attempting to resurrect not one but TWO deeply beloved, fanboy franchises like Star Wars and Star Trek. He did a better job than most, and he did it twice.
You utter ingrates.
@@That2J And both times he fucked up. L take
@@That2J So having a standard of quality and that not being met equals being an ingrate? Sure....
And you use that word "resurrect" as if everyone, everywhere WANTED them back and weren't content with what we already had. This is the main M.O. of major studios today: Member Berries. That South Park reference might be used constantly, but it doesn't make it any less true.
Here's a nutty idea for the so-called creatives making movies today: take the things you grew up on, like Wars and Trek and use them to spur your own creative ideas and characters. Like George Lucas and Gene Roddenberry did when they came up with their respective creations. Except ol' J.J. doesn't have any creativity. If he did, he'd be able to finish a story. Mystery Box = no real plan or answers.
People like Abrams are all the same. They claim to be a fan of something, but if it means a paycheck, they'll take that thing and do as lazy a job as they can with it. Star Trek '09 was an attempt to turn Trek into Star Wars, by their own admission by the way. Into Darkness was a hatchet job on Wrath of Khan, Force Awakens was a remake of A New Hope and Rise of Skywalker was a sloppy attempt to tie off a trilogy that never had a plan, again by Abrams own admission.
The Prequels were far from great. But at least they had a mapped out story that didn't trash what people had seen already.
No one will make a documentary one day called "The Sequel Trilogy: The Legacy Revealed". Because it is now just another thing that was once special and twisted into a generic product. But by all means enjoy.
You can eat McDonald's all day if you want. Just don't insist it's gourmet food. Because of people like Abrams, the soulless suits at Disney and FAR too easy to please "fans" that just accept anything with a particular logo on it, that's all Star Wars represents now.
That BLACK DUDE with the Dreds commentary was hilarious...on top of the fact we are both from Detroit. And his pimp complement was NOT untrue.😂🎉🎉😂
Finally! The gap in my Star Wars documentary collection is filled! I never understood why Empire Of Dreams and Star Wars Tech got released but this didn't!
Star Wars Tech is on the Blu-ray collection, right? Is it also on Disney Plus?
@@sambridgers9543 Yes, it was included in the 2011 Complete Saga set.
Sam Bridgers like Goku Black said it’s on the Blu-ray set, but you can also find it on Disney Plus under the Episode III Extras.
Yeah op, this most definitely should've been released in the Blu-ray set. It's a real nut-scratcher as to why it wasn't included.
Thanks for uploading this! 👍
The quality is, (surprisingly,) excellent, it's well worth the 👍 and subscribe.
51:32 it could also stem from starting out as a slave and having no control of your destiny. Then he is inducted into the Jedi order and is expected to conform to their way of life. And of course he rebels by allow yourself to fall in love with Padme and the frustration of having to keep that relationship a secret only adds to his disdain with the order and its rigid codes. Palpatine is also in his ear inflating his ego and planting seeds of doubt in the sincerity of the Jedi.
I couldn't agree with Kevin Smith more. Some people say that Anakin was; "too whiny." As if to question why the most Evil character in the Galaxy would have been some whiny teenager.
When that's EXACTLY who the most Evil character in the Galaxy would have been.
He would have started out as some petulant, arrogant, and whiny teenager.
Consumed by selfishness and drunk with power.
Because somebody risen above all that would have had the innate character qualities to avoid becoming so Evil in the first place.
That's precisely who Vader would have been, originally. Some; "whiny teenager." It makes the most sense possible.
It's arguable whether or not he could have ever been something else, someone other than an, "Emo kid," lol with some issues.
Vader was his destiny. Vader had to destroy the emperor. And you statement above couldn't be more accurate. Nicely said.
@@jasonvoorhees310 I know, right? A lot of people said the same thing about his grandson, calling him things like "CRY-lo Ren". (11/18/2021)
@@daniellemusella1594 technically Kylo didn’t really had a reason to turn the dark side at all.
Not gonna lie… this makes me really miss the old days where Star Wars was six movies… I dig Solo and Rogue one and a lot of the other content to come out of the Disney era… but I miss when Lucasfilm was its’ own entity…
Anakin KILLED all those who was COMPLICENT that killed his MOTHER. BUT he NEVER told the JEDI COUNSEL what he did.
Disney should be "Me Too'd" for what they did to Star Wars 😢
It's George's fault
And then Disney absolutely ruined it.
So true
Well The Force awakens was good then again it was just a New Hope retold.
I wish George would've told the haters to piss off and kept star wars
When Lucas tried to protect it in the contract he put his trust in the wrong person(Kathleen Kennedy) who took advantage of it for her own ends
2:58 - 3:16
One example, from me and from a historical viewpoint, of what she’s talking about is this…
Lucas may have based the Ewoks, taking on the stormtroopers, on the Vietcong, but I see from that scene is the Dayaks of Borneo and the Moros of the Philippines giving hell to Japanese troops in World War II.
The parallels between the rise of Palpatine and then hitler and now Trump are all the same. Amazing how that works and how people fall for the talk
True
27:23 Chewbacca is probably thinking "you called me a walking carpet a few minutes ago and now you're hugging me. Make up your mind." Lol
2007 and JJ was already talking Star wars
Sad

@@fett333ok mister i repeat prequels haters mistakes
It's incredible, every single time that I re-watch this wonderful documentary on this part (47:47) gives me the goosebumps of awesomeness.
My favorite part is 57:23: the speech and music go too well together.
There actually were some female Imperials in the GL era, notably Mara Jade, Ysanne Isard, Admiral Daala, Admiral Leonia Tavira, and Juno Eclipse, among others, which were showcased in the old SW Expanded Universe! Mara Jade was the first one, revealed in the radio drama adaptation of SW Ep. 6 ROTJ as the deadly Emperor's Hand, trying her best to kill Luke Skywalker, and later going on to marry him!!
Amazing doc. Loved it.
I watched the video you linked. It was a fascinating discussion of the similarities between the Hero's Journey, as described by Joseph Campbell, and the Star Wars films.
Campbell's Hero's Journey is a universal pattern that can be found in myths and stories from all over the world. It tells the story of a hero who goes on an adventure, faces challenges, and ultimately returns home transformed.
The Star Wars films follow the Hero's Journey very closely. Luke Skywalker is the hero, and his journey takes him from his home on Tatooine to the Death Star, where he faces Darth Vader and saves the galaxy.
The video also discusses how the Star Wars films have been influenced by other myths and stories. For example, the character of Darth Vader is similar to the Greek god Cronus, who ate his own children.
Overall, I found the video to be very informative and thought-provoking. It gave me a new appreciation for the Star Wars films and the Hero's Journey.
Here are some additional thoughts on the topic:
• The Hero's Journey is a powerful story archetype that has resonated with people for centuries. It is a story of hope, transformation, and redemption.
• The Star Wars films are a modern retelling of the Hero's Journey. They have brought this ancient story to a new generation and helped to make it even more popular.
• The Hero's Journey is a reminder that we all have the potential to be heroes. We can all go on an adventure, face challenges, and ultimately return home transformed.
Thanks for posting this!!!!❤
I'd love them to make a movie or a live action tv series about darth vader hunting down the remaining jedi after order 66. To me its the most interesting period star wars I know they've made comics and novels about it but I'd like to see it on screen
someone did write the book "the rise of darth vader".
@@Voltar obi wan kenobi and yoda go back to the jedi council to change the message inviting jedi back to the council. Meaning some of them must have survived order 66

This documantary make me realize. If we want to create great masterpiece fairytale story neither its scifi, fantasy, movie, anime, game, or comic. We need to learn deep detail knowledge history, and scripture of good and evil. Unlike disney who just want it become sjw
I love this documentary but find it kind of funny having all these politicians on here discussing the significance of Star Wars. But thank you for this, all I have is a VHS copy I taped off the TV when it was first aired.
One must remember that a good majority of politicians were scholars before they became politicians. I feel they chose the ones they did because of their scholarly expertise not because they were politicians.
These are historians and filmmakers, not politicians.

Totally agree, Disney is the worst thing to happen to Star Wars.
So true
This documentary is what brings Disney and especially the Acolyte to total shame.
Thanks for the prequels bashing flashbacks
Stop getting rid of this documentary, RUclips and Disney
Talk about a Judas - they have JJ Abrams in here when he has as large a hand as anyone in helping Disney ABSOLUTELY RUIN Star Wars. This was before his crimes though. I'd seriously like to ask him why he hated Star Wars and was it like a fantasy of his to destroy it or what.

@@brucecrawford4948 no they didn’t. I can make connection to history and ancient mythology to the sequels too. And the sequels even follow some the same connections as shown in the video

With respect, Disney produced Star Wars films, but George Lucas created modern mythology.
The man is wrong about the Cold War analogy. George Lucas himself is a socialist and was reportedly sympathetic to the USSR; Lucas was actually comparing the Rebels to the VC and the Empire to the US.
Governments SAY they"COME IN PEACE". ALTHOUGH it produces the MOST genocide.🤦😂😂😂
George Lucas is an amazing storyteller. He never just slaps the sticker on, and sends it off. He funded The Empire Strikes Back himself so no body would mess with his vision. In a galaxy far far away.... cheesy dialouge is intergalactic basic. Written in Arabesh.
He didn’t directed it
@@starwarsprequelsandsequels7582 he never stated that Lucas “directed it”- he posted that Lucas “funded it,” and Lucas did invest his own money into it rather than having the studio - in this case 20th Century Fox bankroll ESB as it bankrolled ANH so Lucas could exercise complete freedom from the studio exes - it was a tremendous financial risk and rarely ever done especially at the time before franchises were a bankable investment model - Irvin Kirshner of course directed it in conjunction with Lucas as executive producer and the late Gary Kurtz as the other producer overseeing the completion of ESB

Star wars should have never been sold by Lucas it should have remained the way it was intended
Vader's voice in A New Hope is the best version.
@@Voltar Yeah? The voice in a New Hope, I can believe is feeble old man. The voice in Empire made me think of someone more robust, stronger or at least someone more monstrous. And he had a British accent!

The hero's journey throughout all 9 movies is felt throughout, and I feel so nostalgic that I found this in HD.

1:09:35 I'm going to bed the papa teen deliberately let mace get the upper hand because he could sense Anakin coming. Another psychological maneuver employed to vilify the Jedi in Skywalker's eyes and justify the dark side as a more appropriate option for him.
Star Wars is dead. Disney murdered it with the sequels. Disney brought it back to life only to torture it again with all the shows. Then they killed it permanently with the Acolyte, making it the final nail in the coffin for the once great saga. There is nothing we can do to bring it back!!!!

So awesome
