"Jar Jar blew up an oven."
Is THAT what "boom the gasser" meant?!
Didn't think there were ovens in Star Wars.
I had no idea he was saying "boom the gasses"
Jedi Force ghosts are the Star Wars Universe's version of a bodhisattva, a concept from Mahayana Buddhism. Upon death, a Buddhist who has attained enlightenment may choose to remain in the world of suffering (the world of the living) rather than move on to nirvana, in order to aid others in attaining enlightenment. 😊☸️❤
I remember back in an issue of Star Wars Insider, they described it as a general "Gungan cooking device". They also made it seem like the incident with the Boss' vehicle was a completely different job (like he was working at fast food, then as a valet)
As in, "the oven's gas main exploded."
When I was a kid, the Phantom Menace was my favorite Star Wars movie.
As I grew up, that changed, but now it has come full circle again. It's a story that stands well on its own yet still has details that are relevant to the rest of the Original Saga.
Also, about the blockade over Naboo, Qui-gon said in the novelization of TPM, "you don't need a blockade when you control the ports."
And in Plaugeis, Gunray protested pulling so many ships away from their normal commerce operations. So, I imagine he was keen to disperse the fleet ASAP.
I know I shouldn't be, but I am impressed with the nuances of Sheev's plan. Talk about the long game!
He always had plans within plans within backups within "whichever side wins I come out on top" Which is why his slight look of panic is so great when the ship is crashing at the start of Ep III, like "I don't have a contingency for this"
@@Mike-the-JediNow THAT would be a good what if to explore!
@@Mike-the-JediYa know, Ive thought about that and I am half convinced he did. The guy always knows.
"I see plans within plans."
Guild Steersman
Definitely agree, Trevor. And, like, a really long game, at that. I think the prequel trilogy takes place over the span of 20+ years, doesn’t it?
I'm still impatiently waiting for Quinlan Vos to become the major player in Star Wars media that rumors from 20 years ago implied he was destined for. I remember when the rumor was he was supposed to be one of the main characters of that live action show in the late 00s that never got off the ground (him and a young Boba).
It will never happen.
They will never give us something good, only suffering and mediocrity.
Blown away by the C-3PO revelation of how old that idea was, but it’s not super strange for Anakin to build a droid based on a droid type that already exists. He’s only really going to have access to what he can find, so a template that is already around is logically all he can make. I do however think it would have made just slightly more sense for R2-D2 to have been the droid he built, while C-3PO should have already been serving Amadala on Naboo. Just my personal headcanon of what would have made more sense, especially given how unique and intelligent Artoo becomes.
I've been loving all the recent Phantom Menace stuff in the fandom recently. Watching all of this and TPM in theaters has reinvigorated my love for the movie
Panaka being radicalized by the events of Phantom Menace and manipulated by fellow Naboo Palpatine into being a Moff who dies a villain is pretty sad. It's an object lesson in war and occupation causing those who suffered through it to ultimately become as bad as their oppressors.
In Legends , Panaka told Palpatine about Anakin and Padme's marriage, and in Canon he found out that Leia was Padme's daughter and died before he could snitch to Palpatine. Panaka had a big mouth.
Its also sort of fitting since the actor who originally played Panaka, Hugh Quarshie, refused to continue the role because apparently Lucas would not let him read the whole script to Attack of the Clones (rumor) - so my guess is Quarshie rubbed Lucas the wrong way and got made a villain lol
But dying by an attack by Saw Guerrera is chef's kiss.
@@writingref I thought it was a money thing. Its grotesque Lucas replaced him. Disgusting either way.
@@thomasmuandersontheneousul4184 i thought it was a money thing too but I did some research to be sure and there really wasn't anything to back that up. Even the assessment that he was frustrated with not reading the script is hearsay
On the backstory of C-3PO being something George knew way back when, Star Wars has been pretty great at recycling old concepts and making them canon, a little contextualised. A few things I recall - Starkiller was Luke's original name before someone said it was a bit too menacing. It became Galen Marek's Sith name and the name of a planet destroyer base. The original script of Star Wars was "The Journal of the Whills", and teh Whills came back in Chirrut and Baze's monk Order, and the training Qui-Gon persued to become a Force Ghost. Ashla and Bogan were early script names for the Light Side and Dark Side of the Force. It has come back as names some culture use as such, and Ashla was the name of the the Togruta child in Yoda's Initiate class in AotC, and came back as a cover name used by Ahsoka. Early concept art for Chewbacca got turned into the Lasat race, the two biggest names of which are Garazeb Orelios of _Rebels_ and Jaro Tapal, Cal Kestis' Jedi Master, before Order 66. Also on concept art, early art while trying to work out the enemy of TPM, Darth Maul, got recycled and made into Maul's mother, Mother Talzin. In fact Maul's homeworld is a reuse of a Legends world, Dathomir, and even as recent as _Tales of the Empire_ has signs of using concepts from that, with the Mountain Clan Morgan found shelter with reminding me of Teneniel Djo's clan in _The Courtship of Princess Leia_ .
Even Palpatine using clones to come back to life recalls the Dark Empire comics, and Thrawn was notable a popular canonised Legends character.
So I am kinda not surprised George brought back an old idea about C-3PO's origin and tweaked it so the kid who rebuilt him is Anakin.
On Grebleips, I like to think his given name is Nevets.
I also have a general concept of how the story of "E.T. The Extraterrestrial" can be told from a Star Wars perspective.
The Asogians, a very long-lived race (apparently the novel of ET says that Elliot senses ET is ancient), and sent out a multi-generational extra-galactic exploration mission. This is more than just visiting the satellite galaxies (like Peridea's galaxy), but actually travelling to other large galaxies further away. E.T. who I give the name Sacul Egroeg (I know, it's awkward, but it matches Nevets Grebleips), was on a landing crew investigating a planet that yes, they know is a post-industrial, pre-interstellar human population, but when the locals get close, they have to leave, and Sacul, who is a Jedi, was distracted by the plants they were collecting samples of, and gets left behind. As a result, he takes shelter in a local building, gets taken into the protection of some kids, gets drunk and forms a Force both with one of the kids, gets pneumonia while out with his cobbled-together signalling device, he gets captured by local authorities who don't know how to medically treat him properly, but the Force bond helps him recover after a near-death experience, and his child friend and his friends gets him out to the bushlands to meet the returning shuttle to be picked up by his crew (yes, I am interpreting the crew as having a larger ship out hidden on the other side of the Moon, to keep from being picked up by humans).
In the novelization of Phantom Menace, when the group returns to Naboo, one of the characters asks why there is only one droid control ship left. I can't remember who replies, but I think it's the pilot, who says, "No need to blockade the port if you control it." or something to that effect. So that fits with your idea.
I’m surprised not many people have asked what r2d2 was doing before the phantom menace
I would assume cause it’s pretty clear he was just a regular repair astromech, and the events of phantom menace are what being him to notoriety
I have explained to people that Obi-Wan would have fallen into the hole or splatted on the wall when asked why he didn't speed through those red force field gates.
When do the Jedi learn about the actual Rule of Two then? Yoda definitely knows about the "capital" rule when he meets Bane's spirit later in TCW, but I can't remember it being referenced outside of that moment and TPM
Wow! This was so comprehensive that it answered questions I didn't know I had!
I am completely blown away by how little I knew about the background characters in TPM. Great job Alex!
This was my first star wars in the theater. It was my favorite SW movie for a long time. Hard to believe its 25 years old now
My first Star Wars viewing was in 1977 as a 7-year-old, and I'm still a diehard fan! 😊❤
@@user-zl9sh9mz6h lucky. I remember watching the original trilogy on VHS and falling in love then. I want to go see them in theaters if the ever re-release them.
Heck yes let's get this rolling with the TPM FAQ!
I was one of those that watched it in 99. Though I watched the OT on VHS and ANH special edition in theaters, it was so awesome to get a new Star Wars experience on the big screen.
Its a damn shame of all the negative reception and controversy that would hound this movie for the next decades, but thankfully it has (mostly) died down. Looking back on TPM especially after seeing the 25th anniversary screening, yeah its a lot more dragging then I thought, but thats the cynical inner movie critic. The inner fan who loves the universe and characters really appreciates all the new worlds and newcomers and new elements.
Maul should've had more lines.
Yeah he has like 5 lines.
@@MrTragedious986That's one more than Boba Fett had in the OT. 😊
He did have one very important line.
Straight through his abdomen.
This is why actor Benico Del Toro declined the Darth Maul role. Few lines & make-up. Del Toro was 6'04" so he'd match up well to Liam Neison.
That max katana statue retcon is awesome
I mean the only gungan with yellow eyes is quite telling. Lucas is on record saying 'Jarjar is the key to everything'
30:24 Yoda calls Darth Bane's spirit in The Clone Wars "the creator of the Rule of Two".
i love the voice of battle droids of this movie
Also, Reva has a giant Bacta Tank twelve feet away when she gets stabbed. And The Hidden Path only took what they could carry on their escape shuttle.
I never considered that! 🤯
I always thought it would have been more interesting if Jar Jar Binks had turned out to be, not a Sith, but _An Accidental Force User,_ That _The Accidents_ that kept happening about him was resulting from his accidentally/unintentionally/subconsciously using _The Force_ to make odd things happen around him.
Then they could have had a three movie story arc where he slowly learns to gain control of his abilities.
if nothing else it would explain the foolishness surrounding him.
So like accidental magic caused by kids in the Harry Potter series?
@@Compucles sure, why not?
The novels were so much more than the movie. Highly recommend reading the books.
Why does the Trade Federation even have an army? Like why was it acceptable for an organization like that to have military force? It’s like if Amazon or Google had their own seperate military.
Not sure about canon, but in legends it’s to help deal with the threat of piracy as the Judicial Forces the Republic had were not enough to keep all the trade lanes secure, so the Trade Federation army is more like the security force of the Trade Federation. So to make the analogy more apt, it would be as if the security of Amazon and Google were large and well equipped enough that they could take over an entire state through force
@justintaylor1713 yeah, also legally speaking the droids were security droids to stop Raiders in the outer rim
28:18
Urté- lived with the Gungans and did art and engineering. 8D
Rabé- Studied music in Theed. 8D
Saché- Tortured and scarred by the Trade Federation. 8D
I know she got better, but her torture being said with the same upbeat voice as what happened to Urté and Rabé caught me off-guard, heheheheheheheh!
Still, cool video! I love that Star Wars always gets around to answering all of these kinds of questions, even if you have to go digging for the answers.
Yoda is definitely shown in the Clone Wars to know Darth Bane by name and that he established the Rule of Two. I don’t think *how* he knew has ever been formally established
Which means KOTOR is canon. 😉 they accidentally did that without realizing.
Theres a deleted scene in clone wars where Yoda talks to Banes ghost
I'm really enjoying these FAQ videos and I look forward to seeing them for the rest of the movies.
The Rule of Two question is always something that baffles me that people ask because it's simple logic. If there is a Sith, someone trained them, much like the Jedi themselves. Every Padawan has a master so it just makes sense to assume there is at least one more Sith still alive. They just didn't know if Maul was the master who had left a student behind or the apprentice that left his master looking for a replacement, which he immediately does find in the form of Dooku in Tales of the Jedi and speculation by the Jedi as to who was who would continue right up until near the end of the Clone Wars in the Son of Dathomir comic, where the Jedi battle both Dooku and Maul working together and suspect they may have been the entire time because they don't know what we know.
Question for RotS: How does order 66 actually work? Did Palpatine have to manually call up every clone commander? Did he send a recorded message? Did the chip just activate for all clones without need for the verbal command?
I'm pretty sure the only one he made a personal call to was Cody. After that, they just broadcasted Order 66 over all the clones com units.
The final question was alluded to in shattered in s7 of the clone wars, the clones have radio in the helmets.
@@forsakenshadow9048 so then I guess a good follow up question would be why only Kenobi got that treatment.
@@sebmes7288well, the out of universe explanation is that at that point inhibitor chips weren't a thing yet.
The clones all knew about order 66 and were fully aware of what they were doing. That's also implied by Sidious telling Cody "the time has come", implying Cody already knows about the plan.
I don't think there's an in-universe reason for it. Sometimes when Star Wars retcons itself is can smooth everything over and sometimes it leaves a bump. This is just one of those cases.
There's been multiple versions tbh. Ive seen versions where he made one call. I've seen versions where he personally called every single commander that was with a Jedi General. I've seen versions where he only called important ones like Cody, or Yoda's commanders, and then sent out a mass transmission to the rest. Idk what's canon and legends, bit I've literally seen depictions that showed all of these.
Question about these FAQ videos: Do you read / watch every single bit of Star Wars content and have a trap memory, or are these answers a mix of your own knowledge plus online resources?
Love all these videos. The channel's name is one of the most accurate on RUclips.
Love these videos, great work!
Convenient how I'm watching the complete original trilogy compilation in this series when you upload the start of the prequel series questions
I love these!! Even though I feel very versed in star wars lore, you have taught me there is so much more to learn. Thanks for the great content
Great video! Love this series
Plus, The Grand Inquisitor had 2 stomachs and was only stabbed in 1 of them
EXACTLY so people shouldn’t complain about that
I keep forgetting that…
The Phantom Menace had aged like fine wineZ
Post whatever you want , I always enjoy your vids , I also learn a lot. So Im happy with whatever , thanks for your efforts. 👍
I'm dying with that foundation bit
This is of course fantastic and really interesting and you rock for putting it together... but it really does show us just now much other writers had to come and in and sort out the Phantom Menance!
YES IM SO EXCITED CANT WAIT FOR ROTS, U DA BEST
I always thought that the rest of the fleet was spread out looking for queen amadala, and that's why only 1 ship was left behind at naboo. Also once they landed and controlled the planets surface, a whole fleet blockading would be overkill
Cool. Waiting for the rest. Wonder why there are 3 hidden videos.... in the playlist. Great series. Thank you for creating it.
Thank you for addressing the Jar Jar “Sith” situation, it was getting out of hand. 😂👍🏻
Happy 25th Anniversary to The Phantom Menace!
It is my favorite of the Prequel Trilogy, and one of the best childhood films my parents would put on every vacation. ❤️
Can't wait for the rest of the Prequel and Sequel question videos!
Q&A: Hey, Alex. I did a rewatch of Ep.1. I noticed that when Padme, her entourage, and the Jedi escaped Naboo, they rescued a large number of pilots, too.
What happened to all those pilots? It seems like we never see them again. The Queen’s Yacht was not that large. We never see one pilot once the ship took flight.
The ship escaped the blockade and landed on Tattooine. Once the ship landed, there were no signs of the pilots.
They repaired the ship and departed Tattooine for Coruscant. Once they touched down on the floating landing platform, there were no sign of any of the pilots.
What happened to all those pilots. It was hard to get an exact count. Safe to say, though, there were at least a dozen of them.
I 100% believe George Lucas intended to make Jar Jar be a villain. But when he received incredibly negative reviews, he got cold feet
There is a Legends explanation for why Yoda knew about the rule of two. There was a single Baneite Sith who defected to the Jedi Order before being killed by his apprentice.
Thanks, Alex! 🧾
25:00 to add on, I don't think Sabine or Reeva's stabs were meant to be fatal.
Sabine was stabbed non fatally as a distraction for Ahsoka. Shin knew that Ahsoka would rather rush Sabine to the hospital than chase after Shin and the stolen map.
When Reeva was stabbed, the Grand Inquisitor said they were leaving her like she was in the Jedi Temple, which they knew wasn't fatal for her. Reeva wanted nothing other than to kill Vader, so Vader (after already toying with her and defeating her twice) further insults her by showing that she's so little of a threat that she isn't worth killing.
Great video Alex! Way to Geaux!
21:40 I said it before, and I'll say it again. They are just asking for Hell to come spilling out of there like Doom.
I really hope we get one of these soon for episodes 2 and 3. :)
My headcanon: Anakin asked Padme if she was an angel because he could see her force aura. Yoda said as much when he told Luke "Luminous beings are we." Being the Chosen One, Anakin was able to tap into the force through sheer midichlorian count. Even without training, just pure raw potential, he was able to see Padme as she truly was. She stuck out like a sore thumb compared to everyone else on Tatooine.
For the entries that started with the clips of the trade federation, battle droids, jar jar and Boss Nass I assumed the I kept assuming the question would be ‘why the hell did they decide to give the characters those voices…’
I'm sorry I missed the question submission period. But here's one:
*Inside Watto's Junk Shop*
"How long have you been here?"
"Since I was very little. Three, I think.".
What's painfully unclear in this dialogue whether Padmé is asking Anakin how long he's been at Watto's junk shop, or how long he's been on Tatooine. I know Anakin's listed official birthplace (according to Wookieepedia) is Tatooine, but when he answers Padmé "Since I was very little. Three, I think.", it could very easily be taken as he has only been on Tatooine since he was three. If that can be the case, where was he before that?? Is it possible that Shmi gave birth to him somewhere else?
A crystal skull? In Star Wars?
Kitster was also featured in the Legends novel Tatooine Ghost.
The blockade reason was canonized in the Queen's Shadow book too!
YODA tells Darth Bane in the Clone Wars. "Create the rule of 2, you did." Therefore, Yoda did know about the rule of 2 established by Bane
Great video but I wish there were no spoilers for stuff that have nothing to do with the movie. The bad batch season 3 spoiler was a minor visual one, but Ashoka one was pretty damn huge, despite it being unnecessary to the explanation
Obi had a monster goon sesh the morning before fighting Darth Maul so he didn't have enough orgonnne energy to zoop through the energy gates.
17:42 "Cyborgs. Under. My. COMMAND."
When Yoda talks to the spirit of Darth Bane in the Clone Wars he explicitly mentions that he knew Darth Bane created the rule of two. I don't think its unlikely that the Jedi at some point learned that this was a Sith rule.
True but that's over 10 years later
A big fan of the FAQ hopefully we can get some for the clone wars movie, solo and rouge one along with the saga
Great list and answers!
One more: How did the Sith know that the queen and her party were on Tatooine?
Explained in the movie when Obi wan calls Qui Gon , the Federation let Sio Bibble send a message to the Queens Ship and then located where in the galaxy the signal went.
After re-watching star wars as an adult I started questioning things that I just never thought about before. Like for example, even though palpatine still was able to use the naboo crisis for his own purposes, the good guys still "won" by the end of the phantom menace, so what was Palpatine's original plan? I doubt that his original plan included maul dieing and naboo being liberated by queen amadalas forces and the gungans. Would it be as simple as just making the naboo crisis larger and gaining more power from it, or was there something more? (Really only asking in relation to the phantom menace and not what Palpatine's plan was our would have been in the subsequent movies)
Yes, but _HOW_ did Maul survive? Did he use the Force to push against the walls of the pit and slow his descent? What was at the bottom of that pit? How did he wind up on Lotho Minor? What are your theories if there aren't stories that explain this?
Legends comic had him dragging himself into a reactor waste tube disposal unit that ended up getting dumped on that landfill planet.
Keep up the great content ❤❤❤❤
How did Anakin fly his Starfighter into a Droid Command Ship with its Shields up ?
My new confusion from seeing it in theaters is how Maul tracked them to Tatooine. Right before the scene where Maul says he hopes the tracking was accurate, Obi-wan instructs the Queen to not respond to a distress call to avoid anyone tracking them.
the only thing about the origin of "wizard" is that I could've sworn they also said it in Path of Deceit, which is like 200 years before Ram would've even been born
Just checked, and I'm not seeing anyone say it in Path of Deceit. I think you might've mandela effected yourself or something
Also remember Uncle Owen described Old Ben Kenobi" as "that mans just a crazy old wizard"
Great video, although I'm not sure that the Rule of Two explanation makes sense, as Yoda specifically says no MORE and no less, which wouldn't apply to the ancient sith
What about the orb? What is the orb?!
Says yoda mightve just been talking about the master and apprentice method of sith then proceeds to show the clone wars scene where yoda acknowledges bane being famous for creating the rule of 2
I have 2 other questions:
1- What is dioxis composed of?
2- Jar Jar talks about crashing Boss Nass's Heibiber. Wtf is a heibiber?
His personal yacht
I’d like to think that the Crystal from Qui-Gon’s saber was kept as a keepsake for Obi-Wan Kenobi and eventually when Luke makes his new saber in Jedi, he found the crystal and used it for his saber.
I've always preferred the explanation that the momentum from using Force Speed would've sent Obi-wan falling into the central pit.
I do remember that clone wars episode on the moon of Iego always wanted to see what happened to the character Jaybo Hood.
The real reason people survive the stab: plot
Yoda knew about the rule of 2 because when he went to Moriban he acknowledged that when he confronted Darth Bane!
Cant wait for the AOTC and ROTJ vids, some of my fav SW films ❤
Have you ever noticed that Soo Bibble knew exactly who Padme was? He spoke directly to her via hologram, insisting that she must call him, while Padme was still disguised as a handmaiden.
Padme was watching a recording.
That was the exact same message he transmitted earlier in the film when Obi-Wan told Queen Amidala to not reply.
With that being said, he was most likely aware that Padme was a decoy and actually the Queen.
I have one more Phantom question. I kind of hoped it would be in the video, but it isn't. *What was the sith plan here?*
Obviously, Palpatine was supposed to became supreme chancellor. Mission accomplished. But there is other side of the plan. Several times during the whole movie Sidious insisted queen must be captured and forced to sign a treaty to legalise the occupation. Which didn't happen, this part of the plan failed. And his apprentice was killed (supposedly). So what was the plan with Naboo? What would Sidious do next with Naboo under full and "legal" Trade federation control and with full-sized Maul?
Just thinking about it... How would you call a later meeting of Sidious, Tyrannus and Maul?
Two and half Sith?
I think it’s very clear from TPM that Qui-Gon saw through Padme’s disguise.
Pod racing? Never heard of it. Swoop racing on the other hand...
The ET guys weren’t in the theatrical release, nor were they in the original VHS release. They were added in for the first DVD release
I think Wookies are in 1 panel.
I’m just curious how Maul was physically able to survive. Can we eat? How does he go to the bathroom? He didn’t have his legs cut off he was cut in half. Half of his organs are missing so?…
I always liked to imagine that there were other human Podracers who were undiscovered force-sensitives
Jar Jar's lips move to match what another character says on Tattoine. You don't just accidentally animate that. I think he actually was meant for something more but that got cut after fan backlash against the character.
the explaination about why Qui-gon dies is nothing assosiate with that, it is only because the thick plot armour.
The inability to let go is very dark side
30:54 Ahmed Best has confirmed it, I'm not going to list the evidences the reddit guy pointed out here, but just the fact that Lucas says "he is the key", him been misteriously feared by his people and at the same time seeminly too lucky in a universe where "there is no such thing as luck"... well, you can connect the dots. Officially he isn't any of this, but it's abovious that there was a plan for him to be and this was abruptly changed and rewriten.
What happened to the other half of Maul's lightsaber? Did the jedi pick it up because he fell down the shaft with the one half....
How can one of the most asked questions not be "how did the Sith track the group to Tatooine"?
Will you be doing these videos for The Clone Wars movie or series? Or is that too large and nebulas for a comprehensive video?
Hellll yeah
the videos on the sequels are gonna have to be feature-length ☠️
Since some of the Star Wars comics are coming to a close like Bounty hunters and doctor aphra, can you do a recap of the events of those comics from beginning to end cause I don't remember most of it
If Qui Gon had survived, and the Council still refused to train Anakin, would he have left the Order and taken Anakin as a kind of adoptive son/apprentice?
Why does Boss Nass look SO different from every other Gungan?? 🤷🏻♂️
Why did the gungans flee in terror when quigon obiwan and jar jar arrived if he was only banished for being clumsy? Why was the droid that tried to shoot jar jar get confused when he dropped
