The most iconic and fan favorite film in my opinion, we need a Lucas Cut of the film with a 3-4 hour cut of the film with scenes that weren’t finished and all that cool stuff
I'm not sure why people didn't like Hayden's acting, he absolutely nailed Anakin in his turn to the dark side. Many of those who were a part of the 6 Star Wars movies will attest to the fact that Lucas would cast people who he did not need to give much direction to in their roles. What you see is %100 the actor portraying their character with George only stepping in to give little bits of advice now and again with things like inflections for dialogue.
They were not expecting Anakin, everyone wanted to see Vader. They don't care about the character, just that he's a cool villain and kills people in a hallway in bad-ass mode. Hayden has made a great Job.
Nah the acting was kinda off. Anakin was made interesting through clone wars and EU, but his performance here was very off. I don't see how gen Zers don't get that. I liked these movies but man they were nowhere near the same ballpark as the og trilogy. Go watch the RLM vids to know how ppl felt.
@mania4270 exactly. I like Hayden. Met him in person, and he is a really nice guy but the acting chops are not there. But I dont completely blame him. Its a 50/50 contribution. Its half his bad acting met with George Lucas's inability to write good dialogue and direct actors.
@EpicGamer 2460 Though now it is considered legends, The novel "Darth Plagueis" really makes the prequels and the scope of Palpatine's much more interesting and grander.
1:30 "Special effects was great." Funny. I wonder why people didn't bash on the prequels for their "bad CGI" back in the day. Maybe it's because *the special effects in the prequels were nothing short of REVOLUTIONARY for the time!* It's really annoying how some "fans" nowadays conveniently forget we're talking about movies from fricking *1999, 2002* and *2005.*
The problem is the vfx doesn't hold up anymore. While the original trilogy vfx holds up. Which is also why people hate the special edition of the OT where Lucas edits bad cg creatures into the movies making them look way more dated
@@haveidonethisbefore I'm sorry. The special effects in the original trilogy *DON'T* hold up. We just look at them through some *REALLY THICK* rose-colored glasses because... well... we *love* the original trilogy. Are you *really* going to say that the stop-motion Tontons in Ep. V still hold up?! Or the battle against the Rancor in Ep. VI?! Or most of the green screen effects in Ep. VI for that matter?! Or practically the *entire* Ep. IV before the special edition, back when it was just called Star Wars?!
Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones premiered at Famous Players Paramount Toronto on May 16, 2002. Almost 2 weeks after Spider-Man came out. This is the same theatre that premiered Episode I.
I don't know about you, but I don't blame Hayden for his acting, as Lucas wouldn't let him use his acting skills to bring anakin to life. Lucas was a control freak.
Hayden Christensen is a decent actor. He was just handed a shitty script written by a lazy-ass director who didn't give him anything to work with (literally and figuratively). It's a shame his career never bounced back. It's kinda like Robert Pattinson after those shitty Twilight movies, but he's managed to get some great parts and prove himself over the past few years.
the script was fine, only geeks, neckbeards, critics and aging degenerate nerds made up that the script was bad, it wasn't. Star Wars is in a fantasy/ sci fi world.
@@Person-wz6iy ever seen behind-the-scenes footage from the prequels? He sat on his ass behind multiple monitors while any actors who hadn't already given up desperately sought any notes or direction. Lucas is a hack, and the only reason the original Star Wars worked is because his ex-wife saved it in post.
Cheryl Hikcey. She's married with 2 kids. Still looks amazing for a 44 year old 👌🏼👌🏼 Key words, married and kids - she seems happy with what she's got.
Fans like the so called "original" Star Wars fans ruined Star Wars. They made Lucas sell Star Wars to Disney and see what we have got from Kathleen Kennedy and co. stupidity, unimaginative stories and designs. Wow! George Lucas is the best!
took fans a few years to like the prequels but we r here now :)
ive always grew up with them :) episode 3 is still my fav

Amazing, a work of art and one of the best movies ever made.
Preach!!! All of the prequels!
Will Robins No Attack of the Clones is by far the worst
the prequels are vastly superior to the original trilogy.
@Nathan Cox i dont hate them but they arent amazing. There are way better trilogies. Including the ot
ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES EVER MADE WTFFFFF!!!!!!
1:38 "I din''t get who won in the end" - right on point!
Lol palpatine won because he got the republic into a civil war which granted him emergency powers to do what ever he wants.

Thank you Hayden best anakin ever
@Bonkeys different opinions bro.
Have you ever hear the tragedy of darth plagueis the wise?
@Bonkeys who’s Darth bader?

1:34 "IT SHOWED MORE EMOTION"
Man I MISS the 2000's.
Me to
Prequel Trilogy > Original Trilogy. Thank you Georgie.
No way bruh the originals are untouchable
Prequel & OT > sequel trilogy*
Yes!
The kids loved it and that’s all that matters
May The Force Be With You Always \m/ nice wholesome video
I don't know about you, but I don't blame Hayden for his acting, as Lucas wouldn't let him use his acting skills to bring anakin to life. Lucas was a control freak.
1M0RTAL_CH1CKEN I thought he did well. Given the script provided for him.
johnny rullie indeed. By no means an amazing actor, but he did the best he could
I thought he was great as Anakin Skywalker.
Lucas was great and so was Hayden and the film, you're implying the film was bad , when in general it was downright excellent.
Nah the dialogue is just awfully hilarious, nobody can make it sound normal
Ahh what it was to be young again watching this 18 years later. Cheryl Hickey was and still is hot.
1:12 Cheryl Hicke from ET Canada.
Respect! Real Canadian
1:23 what the fuck was her reaction?
Whose the nachor woman at the beginning?
Me just wanting historic footage
Journalist adding lame jokes
At least there's no sand.
Its course and gets everywhere.
1:23 Stormtroopers trying to fuck
Stormtrooper gang bang 💀
In time i have accepted the prequels a little more. But, there's no case with "Attack of the Clones", i think it's the worse of that prequel trilogy.
Unpopular opinion: Attack of the Clones is my favorite prequel of the 3.
@@greendaylover4771 All right, many people feels the same. I liked better Phantom Menace and Revenge of the Sith.
#davefiloniforlucasfilmpresident
Who the heck would pay 500 dollars just to watch this?
Patrick Lange I had the movie on home video.
Good movie,but if they cut that romance shit lol I loved the advertising of this film,I bought the figures and games. I missed 2002.
I do like that "shit".
If the romance was cut then Anakin wouldn't have become Vader
it showed more emotion 😐
Hayden Christensen

@koobmoon 745 Most people got it, even kids. The dumb were just playing dumb for the sake of it.
George Lucas wasn't lazy.

Mmmm. What to say?.......
I'd rather pay to watch the reporter ...

Funny thing is Hayden Christensen's brother was right he did ruin Star Wars
An opinion can't be right or wrong.
I blame Lucas.... He should have sold the franchise after the first 3 movies
He was great in Episodes II and III.
Fans like the so called "original" Star Wars fans ruined Star Wars. They made Lucas sell Star Wars to Disney and see what we have got from Kathleen Kennedy and co. stupidity, unimaginative stories and designs. Wow!
George Lucas is the best!
111horror how did he ruin Star Wars when he had no control over the movie? I don’t even want to argue with you. I hate people like you.
