Next time leave out the angst American teen part. We come to this channel to escape. Not to have cheap shots taken at us over the mistakes of a few. Other than that good video.
I hate having a bulky wallet (mostly from gift cards I haven't used), but the idea of putting my cash on the outside of my wallet makes me feel uncomfortable...plus, why did you go to the trouble of wearing khaki pants for that? You literally chose the most uncomfortable pants with the most irritating pockets for that clip lol.
@@jordanhendrix2619 Yeah but this wallet is way smaller than any wallet you could have so they wouldn't be an issue with the pants I wear where a wallet twice the size would make it harder
Anyone else ever notice that when Anakin was killing the Separatists he literally saves Viceroy Nute Gunray for last? I believe he did that on purpose: after Gunray spent two entire movies trying to kill Padmé, Anakin wanted Gunray to squirm in fear and panic before cutting him down last.
To me it always seemed like out of all the Separatist leaders Anakin likely took the most pleasure in killing Nute Gunray for all the times he tried to have both Anakin and Padme’ killed.
Destroying his former friends was just cold hearted and messed up on so many levels! Condemning the Separatists after fighting them for his entire adult life was like icing on the cake. Imagine a mean guard dog finally sinking his teeth into a cat who had annoyed him for the longest time.
@@stunner9005 Chancellor Palpatine's propaganda is indeed potent. Let us not forgot who striked first and started the war, The Republic. Let us not forget that for years prior, the Senators of the planets were trying for a peaceful resolution and were ignored by the Senate. The Jedi also were blind to the plights of these planets, Star systems, and peoples. It was convenient for them to be blind to their plight. It was profitable for the other Senators to prolong the suffering of the Systems that became the CIS. The Republic were the Villians. Afterall. The CIS holdout survivors were the first to join the Rebellion.
Exactly. All the death and suffering and fighting he'd gone through, all that pain and anger was taken out in the killing of the enemy leaders. Basically the violent act became associated with his anger and also as a solution to problems he couldn't control. His anger was justified, this time. But it quickly becomes a subconscious habit to Always believe his anger and violent responses are justified, using the pain he suffered and this event of punishing those who were wrong as the foundation of this mindset. "Don't let the demons take you."
Sav3TheWorld yes, exactly. I have no idea what this dude is talking about with this “slaughtering of innocents” nonsense. These were the war criminals who had destroyed the entire galaxy under the guidance of the Sith for the last 3.5 years. They were NOT in any way “innocents”
His entire career in the clone wars campaign wasn't entirely an ordeal, there is clearly a progression of self-indulgence through destroying armies of lifeless robots which feed into his bad attitude and behavior. For all that Anakin is concerned, killing the council is like cutting down another battle droid.
I think the difference here is, that Kenobi always used his jokes for distraction purposes. He sure had this sense of humor, no doubt, but his jokes had purpose beyond just trying to be funny. Anakin on the other hand, I think he actually enjoyed the jokes as jokes and not for their potential tactical usage.
Vader murdering Younglings: Forced, pained, and heartbreaking Vader murdering Separatists: Exhilarating, hilarious, satisfying It makes sense as to why Vader enjoyed murdering the Separatists. Anakin had always had a deep distaste for politicians, and the Separatists were at the top of that list. Whereas, the Younglings were a mirror reflection of Anakin when his journey towards his destiny first began. Not only that, but they were looking to him for hope in a confusing and dark situation. I wish ROTS delved deeper into this stuff, but for pacing’s sake, it makes sense as to why George Lucas cut it out.
Unpopular opinion: ... I felt more sorry for the genocide of the separatists, than for the younglings Edit: To avoid future problems, I am going to clarify that it is not that I do not feel bad for the children, only that I felt more bad for the separatists. That does not means that i don't feel bad for then. Get it?
@@qExAi5 Yeah that's a very unpopular opinion. One group is a bunch of small children that didn't know what was going on and the other group was a bunch of politicians who commanded the droid army Anakin had been fighting
@@ulmo5536 Hey, i don't know those childrens, for the other way, i've seen the separatist even in the Clone Wars. At least, I have taken a liking to them. I never said that I didn't feel bad for the children.
@@vice4378 I know, maybe I should have measured my words. I didn't mean to say that I didn't feel bad for them, for the kids, it's just that I can't help but feel bad for the separatists.
According to the novel, the facility was very well armored, would be nigh impossible to invade it. Werent expecting someone just to waltz in with the right code.
I don't think they had any say in that. Sidious intended them to be pawns from the get go. Remember their dialogues in The Phantom Menace? They were likely more afraid of the sith than the Republic. They could have planned for their own security, but realistically it would have been useless against the sith.
"Anakin might have justified the killing of younglings as an act of mercy." Actually, he didn't have to justify it. Yoda already did that earlier in the movie FOR him! When Anakin was pleading for Yoda to help him save the one he cared for, Yoda told him he should rejoice in the death of whoever he cared for, for they would become one with the force. All Anakin had to do was take Yoda's lesson to heart. I thought it was pretty ironic when Yoda told him to celebrate his wife's death, and yet when the younglings died Yoda seemed in pain from it. Why was he not rejoicing? They're one with the force now!
And Yoda's stance of rejoicing when the ones you die also raises questions about him saying Padme surviving her assassination attempt warmed his heart.
The sad thing is, if you think about it, you can see where Vader's enjoyment of the massacre came from, especially after watching the Clone Wars. Gunray, Tambor, Poggle, all had been arrested at least once during the war, and they always seemed to escape, and continue to cause problems. I can imagine how frustrating that must have been for the Jedi, frustration that Anakin felt as well. Finally, having orders, and permission, to kill them, it must have seemed like a weight had been lifted. The fact that Sidious had likely ensure their escapes each time was irrelevant. Vader was only in the moment, enjoying a victory over an enemy that had caused him so much pain in the three something years of the Clone Wars. His actions were...an understandable evil.
It is because he ENJOYED it. He relished the murders and basked in how good it made him feel. He took his time, taunted them, tortured and mutilated them while listening to their pleas.
@@jasonbarnes1174 got this from the book actually and concurred with the video. Congratulations on reading my comment all the way through, don't know how you managed that either.
@@jasonbarnes1174 perhaps I wanted to ensure that even slow fellows like you could grasp a concept through repetition my dear boy. It is heartening to see you prove yourself not only capable of watching but even of reading as well.
Vader's cracking of jokes during this event isn't that different from Anakin's behavior, actually. He was cracking jokes and snide remarks during the Battle of Coruscant, and in a deleted scene even made an extremely bad, cringy joke that is very understandable as to why it was cut.
I don’t think Vader really slaughtered innocents on Mustafar. I mean, he had been fighting a war with them for three years and they had attempted to kill him on multiple occasions. Of course he enjoyed it, that’s his character.
You don't murder defenseless leaders lol, the leader could not even fight back so Anakin giving in knowing what he is doing is wrong. That is when he truly become Darth vader,.
@@Skydrag.V60 it does not matter if they were not inncoent Vader slaughtered defenseless beings with no chance to fight back, a very cowardess move but a very evil one.
Dooku didn't mask it as much as having a different goal as a Sith and giving in less to his hate. Skywalker also had no Sith eyes when he saw Padme on Mustafar (before being enraged by ignorance and Force choking her, that is). He wasn't truly a Sith until Padme and Obi-Wan "betrayed" him. And he wasn't truly a Sith after he encountered Luke on Endor.
i was thinking of this recently.... im not sure he was ever truly a sith. dark lord yes. but sith? possibly debating semantics here, but in his mind all of his behavior was just and necessary. he believed he was doing right. where as i think a true sith doesnt really care for any sort of morality, rather they enjoy causing pain and suffering for the sake of it. (so i thought prior to watching this vid, not having read the books, not knowing how much he relished killing the separatists.)
86sith according to many times in Legends (several of which are in novelization of movies and some directly approved by George Lucas), it is said that once the dark side consumes you, your iris takes on a golden glow with a blood shot eye around it. It might not be directly Sith, but is directly a result of pure dark side connection. The reason why all Sith in the movies, at times of true hatred, have these "Sith eyes" is because of that. Maul in Ep. 1, Anakin and Sidious in Ep. 3, and then in 6 Sidious does too. The reason Palpatine looks so screwed up is because of dark side connection, not force lightning. The Lightning merely took away his disguise hat he used to fool the Jedi, and he took full advantage of that. This is according to the novelization, of course, and several other Legends sources. A true dark side connection alters your physical appearance.
@@plutonium120 I agree with you. I feel like even though the galaxy saw him as a Sithlord, he was just a dark lord. Most Sith enjoyed their power and were always filled anger and hate but Vader even though was filled with those two emotions he was also filled with pain and sadness, since he had lost everything. He probably just went with the title of Sithlord because there was nothing he had left anymore. Until, Luke showed up and he realized he wasn't alone anymore.
Tide pods yall realize tht sith is just a title. You can be a sith who uses the lightside or a jedi who uses the dark, but both sith and jedi are just titles. Yes he was a sithlord. Was he the stereotypical sithlord? No
@@EliteHoopster2018 Not all light side users are Jedi, and not all dark side users are Sith, but it's literally part of the definition of both organizations that they use the light and dark respectively. All Jedi are light side users and all Sith use the dark side. That's the nature of the organizations.
I say Vader's slaughters were still a mercy kill. If Anakin didn't kill the younglings and the separatists. Then Palpatine was going to. And we all know how Palpatine executes loose ends.
@@eliasenriquez5736 Apparently there's some material that describes what its like to get hit by Palpatine's lightning. And its worse than that. For starters he can control all the pain and agony and the usual setting is hotter than the sun and colder than Pluto. At the same time.
@@The_preserver_x16 Do most lightsaber wielders even know this? I believe Boba Fett had to research the effects of lightsaber mutilation on his own. And I doubt the Jedi would allow such knowledge to be spread because of dark side. And the Sith don't care.
He has reason to want to do this to the counsel too. these were Anakin's and the republic's enemies. They had been fighting them throughout the clone wars, And now in a final act if indulgence to his dark transformation, he gets to deal with them the way he's always secretly wanted to. The way the Jedi would not.
The Jedi Order: “YoU cAnT cOmE bAcK fRoM tHe DaRk SiDe!!!” Anakin after having Jeffery Dahmered his way through the galaxy: *sees Padmé* Oh hey honey how was your day?
As for his duel with Obi-Wan, he was still very conflicted internally and so he couldn’t completely immerse himself in the dark side. He only truly did embrace his hatred of him when he got his limbs sliced off and that’s when the eyes returned. That also explains how Obi-Wan didn’t instantly lose since Pre-Suit Vader was already on the same tier as Sidious according to Nick Gillard and George Lucas.
There is a very memorable part in this sequence when Anakin is slaughtering separatists when he turns to face the camera and shows of his sexy new RIDGE wallet!!!!!
How Palpatine's arrest should have gone Palpatine: I have the power to save the one you love. Mace: I'll grant you the rank of master if you stay put. Anikan: Sold, Master Windu
It makes sense why Vader would enjoy slaughtering the Separatists as Anakin had spent years fighting them during the Clone Wars, so now he gets his final triumph over them.
I thought you were going to point out that the separatist leaders probably would have backed the rebellion and made them a significantly more powerful force.
I think thats why palpatine commanded anakin/vader to kill them. But i think the significance geetzly is going for is how anakin became vader in that moment.
Separatists Holdouts at least in Legends remained a nuissance and some of them actually became part of Rebel Alliance. Some of them even helped Jedi, because what happened in Clone Wars didn't matter anymore.
@@jamiecolquhoun1981 Well I don’t know about comics, but Cassian Andor from Rogue One, one of the most important players in getting the Death Star plans to the Rebels, was revealed in the movie novelisation to have been a former separatist. So it’s definitely possible there were many others out there too
Anakin didn't enjoy killing the Jedi in the temple. He had to justify it in his mind, especially the younglings. He had probably had fantasies of killing the Separatist council for a long time, especially Gunray. As viewers we even get a kick out of them getting what's coming to them until we realize "wait... we shouldn't be enjoying this."
Spectre N7 and pretty gore on some others. Glad he could at least show Anakin’s downfall in all its horror (damn, seeing him bathed in flames, his skin peeling, burning and melting... It gets me every time. And it’s not often you see that in a « kids » movie).
Another thing to point out is Anakin's treatment of war criminals. Initially in the prior 2 scenarios (Dooku and Palpatine), Anakin declared they be stood trial. But when facing the Separatist leaders as Vader he no longer did that.
First was instinct, second was reluctance, but third was gratification. You never mentioned his motivation for enjoyment here, but this is why; the Separatist leaders had, in his mind, started and maintained a war that he had personally fought in, and he found it gratifying to see suffering in those who had themselves caused so much suffering. Also, it seems that novelizations make Sith even more sadistic. Here, Anakin is gleefully killing instead of the movie where his enthusiasm was, if present, internal. In the Force Awakens novelization, Kylo Ren laughs when he kills Lor San Tekka, a big difference to his silence in the film. It seems small, but it really isn't to me.
@@goldenstatewarriors9418 Thanks :) This character was soo important tp the plot, how could I ever forget about him -_- (the fact that they don't even mention his name in the movie probably plays a role. The fact that he's literally never referenced ever, even once, probably has something to do with it too. Though, there again, we cared about Alderaan, a planet we never saw from close by, and that was never referenced after epIV. A big mistake I think)
Vader fought a war against the separatist leaders and witnessed first hand the death and destruction they caused. Him enjoying their destruction was inevitable at that point...
I firmly believe it was a masterstroke by Palpatine. He put all his enemies and pawns in one place, made them think they were safe and that they would be rewarded for the war effort. They were rewarded by being cut down, and more so, by the very man they all had tried to kill for the past 3 years. This, as I stated, was a masterstroke by Palpatine because he gets rid of the CIS Council, his pawns, while forcing Anakin to join the dark side even more. It’s a win win for Palpatine. He’s a genius!
Not to mention he had been fighting the separatists for 3 years during the clone wars. While he may have enjoyed fighting, deep down he hated the war. It corrupted the Jedi in his eyes, he had to be away from padme, many of his friends were killed, and he sees the separatists as the ones who started it. So when he gets the chance to wipe out the people who have caused him so much suffering in his eyes, he does so with joy
My favorite scene from Episode III, but you never see what becomes of Shu Mai, her identical aide Cat Miin and San Hill after Vader closes off the hideout. This includes seeing them anywhere on the floor afterwards. Wat Tambor was obviously filmed (3 pictures of Anakin grabbing and stabbing him exists) and you later see him on the floor near the long table. The script says Shu Mai is hiding in the meeting room with Tambor but not sure if her CGI death was made like his. The Cat Miin action figure has a pre-made slash across her chest.
You can see Shu Mai's death in the movie. Just slown down the very moment when Anakin decapitates Poggle the Lesser, you'll see Shu Mai's head falling alongside Poggle's
I remember reading that part. When I was younger, I thought it was because they tried to kill Padme -his wife- countless times, were responsible for the ruin of so many planets and deaths of potential innocents, and dragging on the horrible wars of the Clone Wars for years, that he was ANGRY, and embraced that. Slaughtering them one by one, and enjoying it thoroughly.
Not only that... the separatist leaders inadvertently revealed the whole thing by addressing him as Vader. At the time only one person would have known that name... Palpatine. Anakin likely pieced everything together, and realized just how deep in it he was now.
Hard to reconcile this with Vader crying right afterwards though. Pure evil in the moment, sure, but he was still in there. It’s debatable at what point Anakin is truly lost (until Luke of course). I think it’s once he finds out Padme is dead.
It’s similar to how a stormtrooper killing rebels (who they perceived as terrorists) only strengthens their resolve and loyalty to the empire as opposed to slaughtering civilians which makes them doubt what their doing and desert. Would you say that’s an accurate enough analogy? It’s at least how I saw it to be
i'd say it's most important because even though Anakin enjoyed killing them and that is a big issue there , it also showed Anakin just who set up the entire clone war. though at that point he was far too enraged to think clearly about it . but it certainly was something he likely contemplated after the fact. It showed him palps duplicity and manipulative ways to him. In my mind while it also was the real shift in his "alignment" it was also the mission that planted the first seed of "light" in vader's eventualy return to the light. as he probably mulled over the information those councilors spewed for years.
Yeah their little walk too when they tried to shield the corporate leaders made me feel a little bad for them. They had no idea what they were up ahainst
Hello there! I'm a Jed'di Knight of the Jedi Order. May the Forse be with you always and the Prince of Peace. You must be talking about Anakin's twin brother. L.O.L.
I thought the canon was that Palpatine has a disfigured face from the force lightning being directed back towards him and melting flesh and bone, by Mace Windu.
One thing I must refute: You say Anikin didn't have remorse over the killing of the Tuskin Raiders. Read Tatooine Ghost. There is a part in there where one of Anikin's childhood friends talks about how he said "I failed" twice, once for not being able to save his mother, the other for having fallen pray to his emotions and killing the Raiders.
Jacob Parslow Star Wars Republic has a story centered around Anakin's hatred for Tuskens, at the end of which he states that he would absolutely do it again.
Jacob Parslow yeah, or je could simply watch epII again. He’s almost crying when he says he killed them, he fall to the ground when he sais that, and when Padme says to him that it’s human to be angry, he says he’s better than this. Wether or not he thought he was justified, he clearly saw that something was wrong with what he did and his anger at Obi-Wan.
In a way he realized what he did was wrong and was horrified to realize he didn’t regret and that he could and would do it again. He got to see the worst of himself in a way he could not deny
Vader definitely teetered a lot between light and dark and definitely made moral decisions. Sidious started to figure this out later but gave it no concern since vader was fiercely loyal. The separatists had committed war crimes and tried to kill him (anakin) and his wife padme along with his friends. Tambor, in specific, was directly responsible for capturing and torturing his troops (aka echo). It comes as no surprise that he enjoyed it. They were maggots always hiding and cowering. The younglings he probably killed just because he was forced to and didn't want conflict. It was either him or the clones and cutting off heads was a lot less painful than getting gunned down. Its still a horrific thing to do, but Vader always justified everything with his morals. Vader obviously is intrinsically dark, but he still had an internal moral compass which prevented him for being completely evil like sidious.
Nope, the dark side deforms all of it's practitioners. The stronger you are in it, the more it damages you're body. Palpatine used sith sorcery to disguise himself.
@@headstrongbachelor3152 Yes, and thus destroying his sith magic, dispelling his illusion of normalcy. Kid, you obviously haven't delved deep into star wars lore, " So do not cite the deep magic to me witch, I was there when it was written."
@@christianruvalcaba7788 Make sense. My first interpretation was that alone using the force lightening changed his appearance like Vader got his sith eyes when he used dark rage to survive after his defeat on Mustafa.
@@headstrongbachelor3152 in the books it goes more into details than the movies, like there are some parts of the movies where I get confused because you don't know what it means. So it's ok to not know. But if your interested in star wars, then reading the books would be a joy for you. From the books, you learn that the dark side actually disfigures your appearance, it can severely damage your life span and also slowly starts to destroy your body. Especially if you delve deeper into its embrace. Darth Bane in his early 50s was looking for a way to extend his life because of the damage the dark side caused him.
"Luke you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend on a certain point of view." How far we can convince ourselves we are acting for the greater good. Killing nominal allies who assisted our own aims and doing so knowingly may also make us aware of previous actions that may have been questionable. At which point the darkness takes hold............
Everytime I watch the prequel trilogy when I get to the part where Anikan falls to the darkside and order 66 is given, I get the goosebumps still to this day
I have NEVER wondered about that or "sith eyes" until I heard about people making a big deal of it on the internet. I always thought Dooku was strange because he seemed too nice to be a bad guy and I wondered why he was working with the sith. It's like people are beliving something irrelevant is important or is "proof" just because someone said so.
Sometimes he had in Clone Wars when shooting Lightning, when for example he was training and torturing Savage Opress. He was more of controlled, tranquil fury, than a raging cackling type like Sidious, a whirling dervish like Maul or walking tank like Vader.
*Geetsly's:* The tragic story of Anakin Skywalker's fall to the dark side is without a doubt one of the best to have ever been told. *Everyone:* Have you even heard the tragedy of Datthc Plagueis the wise, bro?
No his eyes were still blue during Operation Nightfall fall when he slaughtered the Jedi and younglings. Which means Vader saw it as nescary evil but didn't enjoy doing it.
7:14 No, Geet, the entire Council isn't full of living beings it's full of the most bloodthirsty war criminals the Republic never knew during the Clone Wars. You described how merciless Shumai was to her own people, you described how greedy Nute Gunray was and you explained why the other Separatist council members solidified their place as the bad guys in the Clone Wars. Isn't the whole point of Anakin's slaughter of the Separatist council not the act of killing but the sadistic pleasure experienced while killing them? That's what separated killing younglings out of a contorted sense of mercy and enjoying murdering people. Anakin let himself be consumed by passion, submerging him in the Dark Side.
Shu-Mai: We were promised a reward. A handsome reward! Anakin: I am your reward. You don't find me handsome? Truth...again... from a certain point of view
Star Wars needs to be violent as hell. No kid friendly bullshit, political correctness, feminism, gender equality and everything else. Just movies made with creativity, passion, dedication, love for the franchise, careful planning, excelent actors with badass choreography. Some fans make a better job than Disney. If someone does it to perfection like the Vader fan film Disney will get jealous and sue due to some copyright shit. By the looks of it they dont like somebody else doing something with creativity.
I didn't know you were the dude that made The Front!!! I'm subscribed to both channels! Really incredible work, my man--I'm mad that I didn't notice sooner!
The true hatred for the CIS leaders was this: How many of Anakin's friends, fellow jedi, and soldiers had he seen killed or injured by the Seperatists? It was him finally giving in to his hatred and desire for vengeance for the many who'd suffered because of the Clone Wars. It would have felt good. He would have loved it.
I believe it was the emotions Vader was feeling the very moments he was cutting through the people who had invaded Naboo, which he probably considered his home, add the assassination attempts on his baby mama and yea, I can see why he had sith eyes then and not later on. This is further proven when Vader gets sith eyes again while burning alive screaming "I hate you"...
It’s can be explained simpler than all this. The break was when he went against his beliefs and slaughtered the younglings. The cementation was when he killed the council because instead of feeling sorrow for his break, he embraced the evil and let it seduce him further into callously killing the people he had truly hated for years. Now it felt amazing to embrace the dark side.
You mentioned how the Sith rites involved killing someone close to them. What if the death of Padme, and not the Steps Council, was Palpatine's intended trigger for Vader's complete turning?
I thought palpatines face got messed up from eating the lightning mace windu sent back at him. Great video and content as always though, thank you for your work!
CheeseDude23 Yollman this is why I can’t count anything outside of George Lucas 6 movies as canon. They contradict the movies too much. Their still worth checking out tho
CheeseDude23 Yollman AFTER. Not 'from'. It was a moment of reflection he had to finally sink in what he had done. He enjoyed killing the separatists, hence the 1st appearance of sith eyes.
fzdreaddy so he goes from taunting and relishing killing people he would’ve killed regardless seeing as they were apart of the separatists to crying over his actions killing them? Man stop, you know that shits contradictory.
The one thing I never got is why did no one notice that skywalker pops up. Like if I was a leader in the war and 99.99% chance knew who skywalker was and what he looks like I'd be nervous from the getgo
I always thought it was because that's when Anakin felt the most betrayed when his eyes flared and I always thought that didn't this moment is when Anakin realized this entire war was because of the person who you trust the most who is Ben In This Moment he felt betrayed as well as the last few moments of him and Obi-Wan's battle also the battle against ashoka
I wonder if any of the Separatists were like "okay cool we gonna have protection from a sith lord.... wait is that Anakin Skywalker, poster boy if the republic?
Let's be honest. Anakin probably dreamed of slaughtering the trade federation leadership for years, thinking they were the sole cause of the war. All his frustration, hate and anger came out when he confronted them on mustafar. I don't think he viewed the killing of kids in the Jedi temple as anything more than a means to an end (at first at least).
The Separatist Council were hardly innocent, Nute Gunray did in fact try to have Padmé killed, not to mention the occupation of Naboo and how he was able to dodge justice after that incident. I think Darth Vader felt an immense sense of satisfaction at being able to finally cut him down, as well as all the others that had been branded his enemies for the last three years. I think he felt very justified in his actions, finally delivering justice to people who abused a corrupt system to get away with crimes (at least from his pow). I for one think that being a pawn of Darth Sidious, who orchestrated the war, would count as a mitigating circumstance which is why Darth Sidious needed them to die. It couldn't become public knowledge that he'd played both sides, so he sent Darth Vader to silence the few that knew too much.
I would only agree it has the BEST fights. But only best fights. This story really picked up when Darth Claimed to be Luke's Father. That moment in movie history is uncomparable...

Anyone else ever notice that when Anakin was killing the Separatists he literally saves Viceroy Nute Gunray for last? I believe he did that on purpose: after Gunray spent two entire movies trying to kill Padmé, Anakin wanted Gunray to squirm in fear and panic before cutting him down last.
Not to mention _TCW._ And your theory isn’t a theory; it’s confirmed.
Tambor was saved for second to last because of what he did to Echo.
To me it always seemed like out of all the Separatist leaders Anakin likely took the most pleasure in killing Nute Gunray for all the times he tried to have both Anakin and Padme’ killed.
Facts lol fuck gunray 😅💯
Destroying his former friends was just cold hearted and messed up on so many levels! Condemning the Separatists after fighting them for his entire adult life was like icing on the cake. Imagine a mean guard dog finally sinking his teeth into a cat who had annoyed him for the longest time.

Nute Gunray did nothing wrong

Sav3TheWorld yes, exactly. I have no idea what this dude is talking about with this “slaughtering of innocents” nonsense. These were the war criminals who had destroyed the entire galaxy under the guidance of the Sith for the last 3.5 years. They were NOT in any way “innocents”
Yeah exactly!!! I'd probably enjoy it too if i was in his position
and the clone wars sort of shows he hates them with a passion, (remember poggles interrogation?)
His entire career in the clone wars campaign wasn't entirely an ordeal, there is clearly a progression of self-indulgence through destroying armies of lifeless robots which feed into his bad attitude and behavior. For all that Anakin is concerned, killing the council is like cutting down another battle droid.
That "handsome" joke is very Anakin. Honestly even Obi-Wan might say that in different circumstances.
All these jokes are actually quite similar to ones he makes in OT, I'm glad his sense of humour survived the landing (limbless and burning).
I think the difference here is, that Kenobi always used his jokes for distraction purposes. He sure had this sense of humor, no doubt, but his jokes had purpose beyond just trying to be funny.
Anakin on the other hand, I think he actually enjoyed the jokes as jokes and not for their potential tactical usage.
Anakin helped me realize how queer I was. Handsome indeed!

It's understandable
Vader murdering Younglings: Forced, pained, and heartbreaking
Vader murdering Separatists: Exhilarating, hilarious, satisfying
It makes sense as to why Vader enjoyed murdering the Separatists. Anakin had always had a deep distaste for politicians, and the Separatists were at the top of that list. Whereas, the Younglings were a mirror reflection of Anakin when his journey towards his destiny first began. Not only that, but they were looking to him for hope in a confusing and dark situation. I wish ROTS delved deeper into this stuff, but for pacing’s sake, it makes sense as to why George Lucas cut it out.
Unpopular opinion:
... I felt more sorry for the genocide of the separatists, than for the younglings
Edit: To avoid future problems, I am going to clarify that it is not that I do not feel bad for the children, only that I felt more bad for the separatists. That does not means that i don't feel bad for then. Get it?
@@qExAi5 Yeah that's a very unpopular opinion. One group is a bunch of small children that didn't know what was going on and the other group was a bunch of politicians who commanded the droid army Anakin had been fighting

According to the novel, the facility was very well armored, would be nigh impossible to invade it. Werent expecting someone just to waltz in with the right code.
@@rishavbanerjee1371 who was exactly? The facility itself? Cause last I checked, b1's are NOT well armored
@@grandace2 sorry the facility was. It was supposed to be secure
I don't think they had any say in that.
Sidious intended them to be pawns from the get go.
Remember their dialogues in The Phantom Menace?
They were likely more afraid of the sith than the Republic.
They could have planned for their own security, but realistically it would have been useless against the sith.
It’s kinda scary how well Vader’s jokes would fit into the Clone Wars show.
My personal favorite was
"Don't do this...your a Jedi!"
"You fought a war to destroy the Jedi...congratulations on your success."
"Anakin might have justified the killing of younglings as an act of mercy." Actually, he didn't have to justify it. Yoda already did that earlier in the movie FOR him! When Anakin was pleading for Yoda to help him save the one he cared for, Yoda told him he should rejoice in the death of whoever he cared for, for they would become one with the force. All Anakin had to do was take Yoda's lesson to heart. I thought it was pretty ironic when Yoda told him to celebrate his wife's death, and yet when the younglings died Yoda seemed in pain from it. Why was he not rejoicing? They're one with the force now!
O Snap! I mean you’re not wrong🤷♀️
And Yoda's stance of rejoicing when the ones you die also raises questions about him saying Padme surviving her assassination attempt warmed his heart.
Yoda is a sack of ... . If everybody or a lot of people name him wise, that doesn't make him such by default.
Damn man, your parents must've dropped you hard as a baby if that's what you got out of their conversation.
The star wars fanbase is brain dead.
The sad thing is, if you think about it, you can see where Vader's enjoyment of the massacre came from, especially after watching the Clone Wars. Gunray, Tambor, Poggle, all had been arrested at least once during the war, and they always seemed to escape, and continue to cause problems. I can imagine how frustrating that must have been for the Jedi, frustration that Anakin felt as well. Finally, having orders, and permission, to kill them, it must have seemed like a weight had been lifted. The fact that Sidious had likely ensure their escapes each time was irrelevant. Vader was only in the moment, enjoying a victory over an enemy that had caused him so much pain in the three something years of the Clone Wars. His actions were...an understandable evil.
It is because he ENJOYED it. He relished the murders and basked in how good it made him feel.
He took his time, taunted them, tortured and mutilated them while listening to their pleas.

Vader's cracking of jokes during this event isn't that different from Anakin's behavior, actually. He was cracking jokes and snide remarks during the Battle of Coruscant, and in a deleted scene even made an extremely bad, cringy joke that is very understandable as to why it was cut.
When you started with the wallet ad, I honestly thought you were gonna transition into Palpatine needing to get rid of the Separatist leaders LOL
I died while reading this 😂
That would have been great. That's how you do a good sponsorship! Tie it in, give me a reason to keep listening.
When that sponcer advert started, I thought you were going to say that Anakins bulky wallet was the reason he lost his legs jumping over Obi-Wan
I don’t think Vader really slaughtered innocents on Mustafar. I mean, he had been fighting a war with them for three years and they had attempted to kill him on multiple occasions. Of course he enjoyed it, that’s his character.
well, he has tears afterwards. Which is why I don't think he enjoyed slaughter at all.
You don't murder defenseless leaders lol, the leader could not even fight back so Anakin giving in knowing what he is doing is wrong. That is when he truly become Darth vader,.
Being defenseless is an entirely different ball game than being innocent.
You can be defenseless and not be innocent.
@@Skydrag.V60 it does not matter if they were not inncoent Vader slaughtered defenseless beings with no chance to fight back, a very cowardess move but a very evil one.
Dooku didn't mask it as much as having a different goal as a Sith and giving in less to his hate. Skywalker also had no Sith eyes when he saw Padme on Mustafar (before being enraged by ignorance and Force choking her, that is). He wasn't truly a Sith until Padme and Obi-Wan "betrayed" him. And he wasn't truly a Sith after he encountered Luke on Endor.
i was thinking of this recently.... im not sure he was ever truly a sith. dark lord yes. but sith? possibly debating semantics here, but in his mind all of his behavior was just and necessary. he believed he was doing right. where as i think a true sith doesnt really care for any sort of morality, rather they enjoy causing pain and suffering for the sake of it. (so i thought prior to watching this vid, not having read the books, not knowing how much he relished killing the separatists.)
86sith according to many times in Legends (several of which are in novelization of movies and some directly approved by George Lucas), it is said that once the dark side consumes you, your iris takes on a golden glow with a blood shot eye around it. It might not be directly Sith, but is directly a result of pure dark side connection. The reason why all Sith in the movies, at times of true hatred, have these "Sith eyes" is because of that. Maul in Ep. 1, Anakin and Sidious in Ep. 3, and then in 6 Sidious does too. The reason Palpatine looks so screwed up is because of dark side connection, not force lightning. The Lightning merely took away his disguise hat he used to fool the Jedi, and he took full advantage of that. This is according to the novelization, of course, and several other Legends sources. A true dark side connection alters your physical appearance.
@@plutonium120 I agree with you. I feel like even though the galaxy saw him as a Sithlord, he was just a dark lord. Most Sith enjoyed their power and were always filled anger and hate but Vader even though was filled with those two emotions he was also filled with pain and sadness, since he had lost everything. He probably just went with the title of Sithlord because there was nothing he had left anymore. Until, Luke showed up and he realized he wasn't alone anymore.
Tide pods yall realize tht sith is just a title. You can be a sith who uses the lightside or a jedi who uses the dark, but both sith and jedi are just titles. Yes he was a sithlord. Was he the stereotypical sithlord? No
@@EliteHoopster2018 Not all light side users are Jedi, and not all dark side users are Sith, but it's literally part of the definition of both organizations that they use the light and dark respectively.
All Jedi are light side users and all Sith use the dark side. That's the nature of the organizations.
I say Vader's slaughters were still a mercy kill. If Anakin didn't kill the younglings and the separatists. Then Palpatine was going to. And we all know how Palpatine executes loose ends.
@@eliasenriquez5736 Apparently there's some material that describes what its like to get hit by Palpatine's lightning. And its worse than that. For starters he can control all the pain and agony and the usual setting is hotter than the sun and colder than Pluto. At the same time.

He has reason to want to do this to the counsel too. these were Anakin's and the republic's enemies. They had been fighting them throughout the clone wars, And now in a final act if indulgence to his dark transformation, he gets to deal with them the way he's always secretly wanted to. The way the Jedi would not.
The Jedi Order: “YoU cAnT cOmE bAcK fRoM tHe DaRk SiDe!!!”
Anakin after having Jeffery Dahmered his way through the galaxy: *sees Padmé* Oh hey honey how was your day?
Good thanks
Vaders humor is absolutely awesome when he actually uses it. "The transmission was garbled. He said he would leave you in peices." 🤣🤣🤣
As for his duel with Obi-Wan, he was still very conflicted internally and so he couldn’t completely immerse himself in the dark side. He only truly did embrace his hatred of him when he got his limbs sliced off and that’s when the eyes returned. That also explains how Obi-Wan didn’t instantly lose since Pre-Suit Vader was already on the same tier as Sidious according to Nick Gillard and George Lucas.
I always felt like he really enjoyed oofing Gunray because of the Amidala assassination attempts.
There is a very memorable part in this sequence when Anakin is slaughtering separatists when he turns to face the camera and shows of his sexy new RIDGE wallet!!!!!
How nice
I love that part
How Palpatine's arrest should have gone
Palpatine: I have the power to save the one you love.
Mace: I'll grant you the rank of master if you stay put.
Anikan: Sold, Master Windu
It makes sense why Vader would enjoy slaughtering the Separatists as Anakin had spent years fighting them during the Clone Wars, so now he gets his final triumph over them.
I thought you were going to point out that the separatist leaders probably would have backed the rebellion and made them a significantly more powerful force.
I think thats why palpatine commanded anakin/vader to kill them. But i think the significance geetzly is going for is how anakin became vader in that moment.
@@ESOInTeNsE Nah, the CIS gained lots of bad reputation in space controlled by the republic.
Separatists Holdouts at least in Legends remained a nuissance and some of them actually became part of Rebel Alliance. Some of them even helped Jedi, because what happened in Clone Wars didn't matter anymore.
@@masterexploder9668 Not doubting this, but where is that information? Novels? Comics? I wanna know🙂
@@jamiecolquhoun1981 Well I don’t know about comics, but Cassian Andor from Rogue One, one of the most important players in getting the Death Star plans to the Rebels, was revealed in the movie novelisation to have been a former separatist.

Anakin didn't enjoy killing the Jedi in the temple. He had to justify it in his mind, especially the younglings. He had probably had fantasies of killing the Separatist council for a long time, especially Gunray. As viewers we even get a kick out of them getting what's coming to them until we realize "wait... we shouldn't be enjoying this."
"He had just killed children earlier that day" just another day at the office
When you have an amazingly detailed and graphic scene in mind but the studio needs you to keep that PG rating... *How could you do this? It's unfair!*
pg-13.... i think.
Oh yeah, Disney didnt take over yet...
its better, this would have been corny as hell
@Spectre N7 making revenge r rated would have been the worst of his bad ideas
Spectre N7 and pretty gore on some others.
Glad he could at least show Anakin’s downfall in all its horror (damn, seeing him bathed in flames, his skin peeling, burning and melting... It gets me every time. And it’s not often you see that in a « kids » movie).
Another thing to point out is Anakin's treatment of war criminals. Initially in the prior 2 scenarios (Dooku and Palpatine), Anakin declared they be stood trial. But when facing the Separatist leaders as Vader he no longer did that.
First was instinct, second was reluctance, but third was gratification. You never mentioned his motivation for enjoyment here, but this is why; the Separatist leaders had, in his mind, started and maintained a war that he had personally fought in, and he found it gratifying to see suffering in those who had themselves caused so much suffering.
Also, it seems that novelizations make Sith even more sadistic. Here, Anakin is gleefully killing instead of the movie where his enthusiasm was, if present, internal. In the Force Awakens novelization, Kylo Ren laughs when he kills Lor San Tekka, a big difference to his silence in the film. It seems small, but it really isn't to me.
Kylo isnt a sith
@@antonfj_2260 , technically, yes. He might as well be sometimes, but yeah, you're right, he isn't a member of any Sith order.

@@goldenstatewarriors9418 Thanks :)
This character was soo important tp the plot, how could I ever forget about him -_-
(the fact that they don't even mention his name in the movie probably plays a role. The fact that he's literally never referenced ever, even once, probably has something to do with it too. Though, there again, we cared about Alderaan, a planet we never saw from close by, and that was never referenced after epIV. A big mistake I think)
Vader fought a war against the separatist leaders and witnessed first hand the death and destruction they caused. Him enjoying their destruction was inevitable at that point...
"The tragic story of..." Me: "Darth plagues the wise?" You: "... Anakin Skywalker" me: :(
Anakin was just darkly hilarious in that moment, especially with Gunray.
I firmly believe it was a masterstroke by Palpatine. He put all his enemies and pawns in one place, made them think they were safe and that they would be rewarded for the war effort. They were rewarded by being cut down, and more so, by the very man they all had tried to kill for the past 3 years.
This, as I stated, was a masterstroke by Palpatine because he gets rid of the CIS Council, his pawns, while forcing Anakin to join the dark side even more. It’s a win win for Palpatine. He’s a genius!

Not to mention he had been fighting the separatists for 3 years during the clone wars. While he may have enjoyed fighting, deep down he hated the war. It corrupted the Jedi in his eyes, he had to be away from padme, many of his friends were killed, and he sees the separatists as the ones who started it. So when he gets the chance to wipe out the people who have caused him so much suffering in his eyes, he does so with joy
I like to think his last words to Wat Tambor were "Hey Tambor, *remember Echo?"*
7:49 was this supposed to be a school shooting reference??
Had to be
Idk, I'm not American
yeah lmao
Anakin was kinda a school shooter, or angry worker going postal. Consider Raid on Jedi Temple his resignation lol.
My favorite scene from Episode III, but you never see what becomes of Shu Mai, her identical aide Cat Miin and San Hill after Vader closes off the hideout. This includes seeing them anywhere on the floor afterwards. Wat Tambor was obviously filmed (3 pictures of Anakin grabbing and stabbing him exists) and you later see him on the floor near the long table. The script says Shu Mai is hiding in the meeting room with Tambor but not sure if her CGI death was made like his. The Cat Miin action figure has a pre-made slash across her chest.
You can see Shu Mai's death in the movie. Just slown down the very moment when Anakin decapitates Poggle the Lesser, you'll see Shu Mai's head falling alongside Poggle's
Whole video:
*zooms into darkside Anakins face*
I remember reading that part. When I was younger, I thought it was because they tried to kill Padme -his wife- countless times, were responsible for the ruin of so many planets and deaths of potential innocents, and dragging on the horrible wars of the Clone Wars for years, that he was ANGRY, and embraced that. Slaughtering them one by one, and enjoying it thoroughly.
You should do a video of why Anakin/Vader cried after slaughtering the Separatists leaders
Simple. He realized what he had become. That he had enjoyed it.
Not only that... the separatist leaders inadvertently revealed the whole thing by addressing him as Vader. At the time only one person would have known that name... Palpatine. Anakin likely pieced everything together, and realized just how deep in it he was now.
He cried because he ran out of Separatists to murder.
I find all 3 answers here valid
He promised you would be left in piece-
Kit Kat ad, where a Kit Kat bar is broken into pieces
Nice
Hard to reconcile this with Vader crying right afterwards though. Pure evil in the moment, sure, but he was still in there. It’s debatable at what point Anakin is truly lost (until Luke of course). I think it’s once he finds out Padme is dead.
It makes sense that he hated the people he'd been fighting since he was like 12 so much
It’s similar to how a stormtrooper killing rebels (who they perceived as terrorists) only strengthens their resolve and loyalty to the empire as opposed to slaughtering civilians which makes them doubt what their doing and desert. Would you say that’s an accurate enough analogy? It’s at least how I saw it to be
i'd say it's most important because even though Anakin enjoyed killing them and that is a big issue there , it also showed Anakin just who set up the entire clone war. though at that point he was far too enraged to think clearly about it . but it certainly was something he likely contemplated after the fact. It showed him palps duplicity and manipulative ways to him. In my mind while it also was the real shift in his "alignment" it was also the mission that planted the first seed of "light" in vader's eventualy return to the light. as he probably mulled over the information those councilors spewed for years.

I thought the canon was that Palpatine has a disfigured face from the force lightning being directed back towards him and melting flesh and bone, by Mace Windu.
One thing I must refute: You say Anikin didn't have remorse over the killing of the Tuskin Raiders. Read Tatooine Ghost. There is a part in there where one of Anikin's childhood friends talks about how he said "I failed" twice, once for not being able to save his mother, the other for having fallen pray to his emotions and killing the Raiders.
Jacob Parslow Star Wars Republic has a story centered around Anakin's hatred for Tuskens, at the end of which he states that he would absolutely do it again.
Jacob Parslow yeah, or je could simply watch epII again.
He’s almost crying when he says he killed them, he fall to the ground when he sais that, and when Padme says to him that it’s human to be angry, he says he’s better than this.
Wether or not he thought he was justified, he clearly saw that something was wrong with what he did and his anger at Obi-Wan.
In a way he realized what he did was wrong and was horrified to realize he didn’t regret and that he could and would do it again. He got to see the worst of himself in a way he could not deny

Vader definitely teetered a lot between light and dark and definitely made moral decisions. Sidious started to figure this out later but gave it no concern since vader was fiercely loyal.
The separatists had committed war crimes and tried to kill him (anakin) and his wife padme along with his friends. Tambor, in specific, was directly responsible for capturing and torturing his troops (aka echo). It comes as no surprise that he enjoyed it. They were maggots always hiding and cowering.
The younglings he probably killed just because he was forced to and didn't want conflict. It was either him or the clones and cutting off heads was a lot less painful than getting gunned down. Its still a horrific thing to do, but Vader always justified everything with his morals. Vader obviously is intrinsically dark, but he still had an internal moral compass which prevented him for being completely evil like sidious.
They (the Separatists) were all sadistic, ruthless, cowards especially Gunray.
I thought Palpatine's face was because of the lightening reflected back on him.
Nope, the dark side deforms all of it's practitioners. The stronger you are in it, the more it damages you're body. Palpatine used sith sorcery to disguise himself.

@@headstrongbachelor3152 in the books it goes more into details than the movies, like there are some parts of the movies where I get confused because you don't know what it means. So it's ok to not know. But if your interested in star wars, then reading the books would be a joy for you. From the books, you learn that the dark side actually disfigures your appearance, it can severely damage your life span and also slowly starts to destroy your body. Especially if you delve deeper into its embrace. Darth Bane in his early 50s was looking for a way to extend his life because of the damage the dark side caused him.
"Luke you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend on a certain point of view." How far we can convince ourselves we are acting for the greater good. Killing nominal allies who assisted our own aims and doing so knowingly may also make us aware of previous actions that may have been questionable. At which point the darkness takes hold............
Everytime I watch the prequel trilogy when I get to the part where Anikan falls to the darkside and order 66 is given, I get the goosebumps still to this day
Palpatines face was clearly scarred by his lightning being reflected back at him by Windu.
No... he face became deformed because he's a master of the dark side. He used sith sorcery to disguise himself.
I’ve always wondered why we’ve never seen Dooku with the yellow eyes
He uses the dark side but he doesn't fully embrace it.
He does have yellow eyes in the Clone Wars on the rare occasions he does embrace the dark side.
I have NEVER wondered about that or "sith eyes" until I heard about people making a big deal of it on the internet. I always thought Dooku was strange because he seemed too nice to be a bad guy and I wondered why he was working with the sith.
It's like people are beliving something irrelevant is important or is "proof" just because someone said so.
Sometimes he had in Clone Wars when shooting Lightning, when for example he was training and torturing Savage Opress. He was more of controlled, tranquil fury, than a raging cackling type like Sidious, a whirling dervish like Maul or walking tank like Vader.
*Geetsly's:* The tragic story of Anakin Skywalker's fall to the dark side is without a doubt one of the best to have ever been told.
*Everyone:* Have you even heard the tragedy of Datthc Plagueis the wise, bro?
I wish we could have gotten these first Vader Jokes on screen.
His eyes turn yellow before he kills the separatists, you can see they’re yellow before/during the attack on the Jedi temple
No his eyes were still blue during Operation Nightfall fall when he slaughtered the Jedi and younglings. Which means Vader saw it as nescary evil but didn't enjoy doing it.
in the intro i looked down at my food while i ate, then i heared the battlefront loading screen sound and its safe to say ive never looked up faster.
Revenge of the Sith is my favorite movie. Sheev Palpatine is epic in it.
Literally every line my boy had is quotable.
I really have to say that I enjoy those videos that dive into the meaning of events that is not always apperant at first glance.
7:14 No, Geet, the entire Council isn't full of living beings it's full of the most bloodthirsty war criminals the Republic never knew during the Clone Wars. You described how merciless Shumai was to her own people, you described how greedy Nute Gunray was and you explained why the other Separatist council members solidified their place as the bad guys in the Clone Wars.
Isn't the whole point of Anakin's slaughter of the Separatist council not the act of killing but the sadistic pleasure experienced while killing them? That's what separated killing younglings out of a contorted sense of mercy and enjoying murdering people. Anakin let himself be consumed by passion, submerging him in the Dark Side.
Shu-Mai: We were promised a reward. A handsome reward!
Anakin: I am your reward. You don't find me handsome?
Truth...again... from a certain point of view
Star Wars needs to be violent as hell. No kid friendly bullshit, political correctness, feminism, gender equality and everything else. Just movies made with creativity, passion, dedication, love for the franchise, careful planning, excelent actors with badass choreography. Some fans make a better job than Disney. If someone does it to perfection like the Vader fan film Disney will get jealous and sue due to some copyright shit. By the looks of it they dont like somebody else doing something with creativity.

Anakin: You don’t think I’m handsome?
The true hatred for the CIS leaders was this:
How many of Anakin's friends, fellow jedi, and soldiers had he seen killed or injured by the Seperatists?
It was him finally giving in to his hatred and desire for vengeance for the many who'd suffered because of the Clone Wars. It would have felt good. He would have loved it.
After the wallet ad I thought this was going to be about how he killed all these economic power leaders, but this was so much better
I believe it was the emotions Vader was feeling the very moments he was cutting through the people who had invaded Naboo, which he probably considered his home, add the assassination attempts on his baby mama and yea, I can see why he had sith eyes then and not later on. This is further proven when Vader gets sith eyes again while burning alive screaming "I hate you"...
You can't quote the Jedi on the "dark side". They are ignorant and superstitious. There is Nothing more sentient than emotion.
It’s can be explained simpler than all this. The break was when he went against his beliefs and slaughtered the younglings. The cementation was when he killed the council because instead of feeling sorrow for his break, he embraced the evil and let it seduce him further into callously killing the people he had truly hated for years. Now it felt amazing to embrace the dark side.
Those jokes were... kind of hilarious.
Anakin kills a bunch of children: "What have I done!"
Anakin kills the separatists: "Lol that way he fell"
You mentioned how the Sith rites involved killing someone close to them. What if the death of Padme, and not the Steps Council, was Palpatine's intended trigger for Vader's complete turning?
I thought palpatines face got messed up from eating the lightning mace windu sent back at him. Great video and content as always though, thank you for your work!
But why did anakin cry on mustafar? (a singel tear before be enters the room with the tecnojunion guy)
CheeseDude23 Yollman this is why I can’t count anything outside of George Lucas 6 movies as canon. They contradict the movies too much. Their still worth checking out tho
ngpdreamteam2k4 Your response makes no sense to what he said. He's crying from killing the Jedi/Younglings...
@@fzdreaddy bit he cryed on mustafar from killing the sep generals..
.
CheeseDude23 Yollman AFTER. Not 'from'. It was a moment of reflection he had to finally sink in what he had done. He enjoyed killing the separatists, hence the 1st appearance of sith eyes.
fzdreaddy so he goes from taunting and relishing killing people he would’ve killed regardless seeing as they were apart of the separatists to crying over his actions killing them? Man stop, you know that shits contradictory.
The one thing I never got is why did no one notice that skywalker pops up. Like if I was a leader in the war and 99.99% chance knew who skywalker was and what he looks like I'd be nervous from the getgo
I always thought it was because that's when Anakin felt the most betrayed when his eyes flared and I always thought that didn't this moment is when Anakin realized this entire war was because of the person who you trust the most who is Ben In This Moment he felt betrayed as well as the last few moments of him and Obi-Wan's battle also the battle against ashoka
That book sounds so fkn good! I wish we could get a movie or series that dark!
At the time-marker [3:43], the VOLUME DROPS SIGNIFICANTLY!!! Just an FYI so you can check out the project file to see what happened. :) Hope it helps?
I wonder if any of the Separatists were like "okay cool we gonna have protection from a sith lord.... wait is that Anakin Skywalker, poster boy if the republic?
Let's be honest. Anakin probably dreamed of slaughtering the trade federation leadership for years, thinking they were the sole cause of the war. All his frustration, hate and anger came out when he confronted them on mustafar. I don't think he viewed the killing of kids in the Jedi temple as anything more than a means to an end (at first at least).
I'm very happy for you doing that job as a sith lord
I'm so high up that I was watching the video one minute early 😎
Not early
The Separatist Council were hardly innocent, Nute Gunray did in fact try to have Padmé killed, not to mention the occupation of Naboo and how he was able to dodge justice after that incident. I think Darth Vader felt an immense sense of satisfaction at being able to finally cut him down, as well as all the others that had been branded his enemies for the last three years. I think he felt very justified in his actions, finally delivering justice to people who abused a corrupt system to get away with crimes (at least from his pow). I for one think that being a pawn of Darth Sidious, who orchestrated the war, would count as a mitigating circumstance which is why Darth Sidious needed them to die. It couldn't become public knowledge that he'd played both sides, so he sent Darth Vader to silence the few that knew too much.
Revenge of the Sith is the best Star Wars movie(imo)let's be real it has the greatest fight scenes as well
Agreed!
I would only agree it has the BEST fights. But only best fights. This story really picked up when Darth Claimed to be Luke's Father. That moment in movie history is uncomparable...
