a side note, i like that vadar used the force much more than his saber since Palpatine viewed reliance on a saber a weakness and a sith should be powerful with the force.
Personally I would also say it fits with the themes of the first movies, that it doesn't matter how skilled you are with the lightsaber, you still are no match for a true master of the force. Although I think this wasn't the intention of the scene. Still best Vader Scene of all time^^
Oh my god, I know something Erik Voss doesn't... the day has come. The droid at 4:25 is actually KP-1, the winner of the Star Wars "Build my Droid" contest. It was organized by FIRST and SW: Force for Change.
Seeing Vader in his prime stopping that transport and ripping it shreds is what every true Star Wars fan has always wanted to see.. even more powerful than in the original trilogy..
He's suppose to be more powerful than in the original. By the original, the lack of jedi to fight against has caused his power to atrophy, just like Obi-wan in this series.
He was kind of a joke in the OT. Not very scary at all. Anakin turning into Vader in Ep3 is scarier than any Vader in the OT for me and I grew up on the OT. But this Kenobi episode, this does put a smile on my face.
What I continue to love about Obi-Wan as a character is that he is known as The Negotiator. He always manages to negotiate trouble without escalating to more violence. That's why I appreciate the part when he relinquished the lightsaber. He is playing chess not checkers.
I love the Yoda-like syntax of Obi-Wan’s Jedi proverb “…until you overcome it, a padawan you will still be.” @16:10, as if Yoda once said this to Obi-Wan.
Seeing Hayden at Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim it was clear he was excited to be back in the Universe. And now I know why! The fight scene made me giddy.
One thing to note is that Vader has killed a third of the inquisitor's members himself. They truly are not sith, merely fallen Jedi. And he takes every excuse he can to murder them.
We don't talk about the Force Unleashed...with all the force BS talking to each other and sending physical objects to each other made that movie unwatchable.
One thing I noticed that I haven’t seen anyone talk about is the blaster that Tarla uses, is the same one Leia uses ANH (Tarla’s just had a scope) and if you recall, in chapter 3 of the series Leia says to Tarla, “Can you teach me how to shoot?” This was a really nice detail.
It’s what we’ve been waiting for! I’m so glad Hayden and the Fans are embracing. I saw him at Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim and he seemed clearly excited to be back in the franchise.
how does he look older than obi wan though no CGI just made it look cheap could you imagine if they never made Luke look younger in mando or fett there would have been uproar yet everyone is fine with this older Anakin Jokewars
Usually when force sensitive characters stop ships, they have to use two hands and they still usually end up getting away. But with Vader, he used one hand and absolutely smashed that thing to pieces showing how powerful Vader really is. I also really loved the Vader/Reva fight scene. It was so epic!
The hand gestures are just to help them direct their power, they're not needed to use the force. Vader has been shown choking people without moving a muscle. You must unlearn what you have learned
I really love how the practice duel between Obi-Wan and young Anakin mirrors what is happening in the episode at the time that the practice duel is being shown. Such an awesome way of telling the story.
I know a particular Naruto fight scene you would like. Too bad you'd ahve to watch like 500+ episodes before you'd get there while truly understand the story behind it
Anakin says “I was beginning to think you weren’t coming” which just so happens to be nearly exactly what Taun We says to Obi-wan when he arrives on Kamino! It made me smile because I quote that line all the time!
I honestly don’t think the de-aging of Hayden was as bad as some people have been saying. Sure it could’ve been done better, but I think it’s pretty solid overall.
idk i noticed it the moment he turned his head and couldn’t really believe the character the whole episode ngl. i still liked it tho it was fire overall. (n i couldn’t get over how like 50 stormtroopers only hit like 2-3 people out of at least 20 in that room)
For me, it honestly looked off because it was still present-Hayden Christensen's face. It just looked odd. Wouldn't have minded in anyway if they didn't do deaging on Ewan, his face looks very similar anyway.
I feel like we need a Vader series that adapts some of the comics, like Vader bleeding his crystal or some of the other badass moments. But tbh, I just want to here him say “All I’m surrounded by is fear and dead men” 😫 it gives me chills every time
Your need for victory Anakin, it blinds you...Anakin's EYES are so EXPRESSIVE at that moment, complete distress and frustration for Anakin. GOD it was SO GOOD TO SEE ANNAKIN AND OBI WAN together, I can't tell you!.
I picked up on this too. Seriously good screenwriting, as it shows that 1) anakin does learn some things from his master and 2) obi wans padawan is still in there under the layers of hatred and cybernetics.
I want to have a moment like when Ashoka fought Vader in rebels and saw anakin through the broken helmet. Kenobi and Anakin staring at each other face to face before fighting would be so cool.
Seeing Hayden as Vader without the helmet would rock. But sadly they wouldn't. Which makes you wonder why they even had to get Hayden to wear the Vader suit.
The enormity of Anakin's crime killing those younglings really hit me much more deeply thru that terrifying flashback. Also, Vader at the peak of his force powers, displaying them so viciously - is awe inspiring.
6:03 EC could actually stand for Eno Cordova from Jedi: Fallen Order! He's the only Jedi I can think of with those initials and a lot of stuff from that game is slowly seeping into other media, so I'm really hoping that it is him
Ohh true, his main mission was to rebuild the order so him protecting force sensitive kids fits surprisingly well. Maybe he even used the holocron to find some before the empire?
He was terrifying without his saber. He was ridiculously scary using one half of Reva’s saber. I would probably pass out if they showed him actually fighting with two sabers!!! This entire episode had me holding my breath from the first scene on Coruscant. I think I was physically exhausted after watching it lol
Bail Organa: *"Owen will need help with the boy..."* 8:51 - The Fulcrum/Ahsoka reference you made - who do you think Bail meant by needing help with the boy? Bail is going to bring Ahsoka. This is where Ahsoka and Luke will first actually meet.
I love how Vader duel wielding Reva's broken saber mirrored Anakin's fight in the temple with Barriss Offee from Clone Wars, brilliant bit of character continuity.
I LOVED seeing Obi Wan's original lightsaber in his hands again! My favorite hilt of all time. Such a beauty. I still don't know what happened to it between Ep II and Ep III.
Ah, but you do know! We can presume it was never recovered from Geonosis after his capture. Both Obi and Anakin (whose lightsaber was destroyed beyond function anyway) were disarmed when captured and put on trial.
I love this channel. You guys seem to put in a lot of time to get all info you can to give us the best things on what subjects your talking about. Thank you
I'd like to think one of those astromechs was flying the decoy transport that that Vader took down. It would be an interesting sacrifice if a droid gave itself so everyone else could escape.
They're written in aurebesh, it's the language they primarily use in star wars. People have figured out the alphabet a long time ago. He just translated it litter by letter.
I think that they left Anakin more "adult" on purpuse, it's like Vader would see himself if he didn't turned, but also to make his facial expressions more authentic when he get's emotional
One of the best parts of this episode was the sparring between Obi-wan and Anikin. It was nice to see them come together as far like that, like old friends. The only issue I had with that scene was that they were sparring with actual lightsabers. What if there was an accident? Someone could have suffered their limb or something.
Vader using only the force to fight Reva for a bit reminded me of your fight with him in Fallen Order, if you got to close to him he’d just force you back. He only uses it when he jumps you in the hallway before escaping.
I really believe there is no actors doing better lightsaber move than Maul and Hayden. I really convince they train to fight with it for their entire life xD
I wish they would've known the direction they were gonna take when they made the original series. Like Anakin's reaction to learning that Luke is his son would've been so much more intense in the first one.
He doesn't learn that Luke is his son in ANH. He isn't aware of Luke's last name until after his name is made famous for blowing up the Death Star. Technically, in the original series (before comics and stories were made between ANH and ESB), Vader isn't even aware Luke is a Skywalker until his meeting with the Emperor in Empire Strikes Back.
My favorite easteregg is that in the flashback. At one point Anakin is hitting on Obi's lightsaber in the exact same whay that Luke does to Vaders when his anger takes over in Return of the Jedi.. :)
The part where Obi-wan requested to negotiate, it's a callback to Obi-wan been known as "The negotiator" back in the Clone wars. Also Obi-wan told Anakin "a Padawan you will still be" that's the way Yoda would have say it. It was nice to see live action stormtroopers actually hit something or someone. When Vader said "Did you really believe i wouldn't see it, Youngling" It reminded me that Vader had told Reva "I've been watching you, Third sister.
the deaging was not "rendered" de aging like this is simply an adjustment layer to smooth the footage, not a 3d replacement...the smiles are the hardest becasue you end up smoothing natural smile lines that you have at all ages if you;'re not careful
Genuinely can't get over how super hotter Hayden looks now that he has some life experience on his face. I don't even care that he's older than when they filmed the movies. The braid is enough. What a gratifying episode!
At around 2:30 in the video, Erik states how in the attack of the clones area flash back, Obi-wan uses one hand and Anikan uses two, while in the current events, Obi-wan uses two while Vader uses one, to me, this goes back to the line from StarWars: episode 4 in the line: Vader: When you left me I was but the learner, but now, I am the master
My interpretation of the "flashback" was that it wasn't a flashback. Like in Doctor Who, mental battles between two opponents could look like physical like a game of chess or a lightsaber training. That's why Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor weren't really deaged much for the scene: because it's happening in real-time in their minds with either their mental image of themselves or the mental image they have of each other. I dunno, just a thought. But everything else in the video was great! And if that was a hint to Corran Horn, that would be awesome!
the lesson that Anakin had to learn was "stop trying to prove yourself". You can see from his fight with Reva that he is definitely confident and self-assured!
Something i noticed watching this video is when Anakin says to Obi Wan "you are beaten", he delivers the line very similarly to how Vader said it to Luke in Empire Strikes Back.
I would have loved to see Hayden with Anakin's scar. Also, in that fight, "Mercy doesn't defeat enemies" ends up being a nod to his conflict with and about Luke in Return of the Jedi.
Interesting that everyone’s favorite episodes are episode 3 and episode 5 where in episode 3 someone gets burned and episode 5 there was a major fight with Vader ending in a plot twist
The hacking of the lightsaber that you caught was also an anakin move in the clone wars. It was one of his duels with count dooku. The arc where kenobi's death was faked to infiltrate dooku's scheme to assassinate palpatine
Reva’s gotta die now just like when maul found out in rebels and obi wan’s whole demeanor changed from his usual plan for saber duels to “holy shit well now I gotta kill him”
I doubt anybody noticed, but before his ship arrives at the planet. Vader is staring into hyperspace, something thought to be unhealthy, maddening, and it is said Bader enjoys this and how it makes him feel
Vader pulling the ship down reminded me so much of the level in the force unleashed game dlc where the apprentice pulls down the Millennium falcon on hoth before turning luke to the dark side
a side note, i like that vadar used the force much more than his saber since Palpatine viewed reliance on a saber a weakness and a sith should be powerful with the force.
Personally I would also say it fits with the themes of the first movies, that it doesn't matter how skilled you are with the lightsaber, you still are no match for a true master of the force. Although I think this wasn't the intention of the scene. Still best Vader Scene of all time^^
Palpatine didn’t use a saber until he was “trapped” by 3 master Jedis and the Master of the Order.

Seeing Vader in his prime stopping that transport and ripping it shreds is what every true Star Wars fan has always wanted to see.. even more powerful than in the original trilogy..
He's suppose to be more powerful than in the original. By the original, the lack of jedi to fight against has caused his power to atrophy, just like Obi-wan in this series.
He was kind of a joke in the OT. Not very scary at all. Anakin turning into Vader in Ep3 is scarier than any Vader in the OT for me and I grew up on the OT.

"THE NEGOTIATOR"
I love the Yoda-like syntax of Obi-Wan’s Jedi proverb “…until you overcome it, a padawan you will still be.” @16:10, as if Yoda once said this to Obi-Wan.
Vader went full Starkiller when he was stopping the transport!! What an episode!! 🔥🔥🔥
Yea it was sick
Vader is a Giga-Chad in this episode
IKR. Yeah his was what I was hoping for
Haha weeelll, starkiller yanked down an entire goddamn star destroyer from orbit. Darth wishes he had a feat like that ;)

I like how much they use the force and the way the use it in this series.
I feel like they refrain from using the force in most of the shows in movies because it is too op. The Force Unleashed for example.
This is exactly how I feel the force should be portrayed. They hold back too much, this is exactly how it should be
We don't talk about the Force Unleashed...with all the force BS talking to each other and sending physical objects to each other made that movie unwatchable.

That would have been cool but I don't think that's what it was supposed to be
If you watch this episode with the subtitles on, the only thing they translate on that wall is "the light fades but is never forgotten."
the lesson that Anakin had to learn was "stop trying to prove yourself". You can see from his fight with Reva that he is definitely confident and self-assured!
Something i noticed watching this video is when Anakin says to Obi Wan "you are beaten", he delivers the line very similarly to how Vader said it to Luke in Empire Strikes Back.
Anakin really has the best fighting style for real
I would have loved to see Hayden with Anakin's scar. Also, in that fight, "Mercy doesn't defeat enemies" ends up being a nod to his conflict with and about Luke in Return of the Jedi.
So we not gonna talk about how obi set up the third sister for failure 😂
In Vader’s duel with Reva he strikes a bit of an Ahsoka pose
Interesting that everyone’s favorite episodes are episode 3 and episode 5 where in episode 3 someone gets burned and episode 5 there was a major fight with Vader ending in a plot twist
Wouldn’t it be funny if The Emperor said “Wait you killed kids?” I just said “do what must be done” you really went overboard
The hacking of the lightsaber that you caught was also an anakin move in the clone wars. It was one of his duels with count dooku. The arc where kenobi's death was faked to infiltrate dooku's scheme to assassinate palpatine
When Vader force grabbed the ship then proceeded to toy with Reva SHEEESH! Thats the Vader we need more of.
This episode literally had my emotions everywhere
Those lightsabers wouldve made a fine addition to general grievous's collection
I feel like they used the ‘de-aging’ tech on Hayden but it actually made him look older. Still doesn’t take away from performance though
Reva’s gotta die now just like when maul found out in rebels and obi wan’s whole demeanor changed from his usual plan for saber duels to “holy shit well now I gotta kill him”
I think Disney is taking notes from The Force Unleashed and I’m all here for it!!!
With the force and the ship 🤣

4:23 did you know Daft Punk sampled the "yeah"-sounding beat in their "10 Minutes of Punk" EP?
when youre so early even erik voss hasnt broke you down
I’ve been waiting for this video since wendsday morning
He remembers ALL THE WOMEN, AND THE CHILDREN TOO
that got me
I’m glad you bigged up the writers, this was the best written episode so far, the timings of those flashbacks were *chefs kiss*
This episode was incredible
I doubt anybody noticed, but before his ship arrives at the planet. Vader is staring into hyperspace, something thought to be unhealthy, maddening, and it is said Bader enjoys this and how it makes him feel
Barf bader
When Vader gets Reva to yield, he holds the sabers with Ashoka’s stance.
This and Star Wars Meg are my favorite channels, always positive and always great content ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hayden Christen’s acting definitely improved, significantly IMO.
acting was always good, just better writing this time and yeh maybe better acting as the years have passed
A Star Wars Galaxies reference? LETS GOOOOOOOO!!!!
My favourite episode, I love it
Vader pulling the ship down reminded me so much of the level in the force unleashed game dlc where the apprentice pulls down the Millennium falcon on hoth before turning luke to the dark side
When Anakin was hacking at Obi-Wan in the flashback, it reminds me of Clone Wars when Anakin was hacking at Barriss
Imagine if general grievous jumps out of no where and steals vaders and obi wan light saber
