I have just found this channel and regarding the topic of another actor playing Anakin, I'm gonna leave this link for you to watch... ruclips.net/video/q0hqnMUi3NA/видео.html Is a vídeo called "In a galaxy far, far away, I was almost Anakin Skywalker" a mini-documentary about an actor who was almost cast as Anakin. Inlive Jale Lloyd's performance, but I agree that some of his scenes felt weird, but I think this other actor would have crushed it in the role.
WHY WHY WHY ? STAR WARS is getting watched in the order they have been made and this is a gold rule EPISODE 4 is first to watch EPISODE 5 and 6 are second to watch (both episodes are basicly one movie) EPISODE 1 is not getting watched first no matter what as it basicly the movie number 4 in the series EPISODE 2 is actually episode 5 EPISODE 3 is the last one to be watched
The Song that plays while Maul fights Qui-Gon and Kenobi is called Duel of Fates. The meaning of the title of that Song refers not to the Jedi or the Sith, but rather Anakin's Fate. Qui-Gon if he had survived most likely Anakin never would have went to the Darkside, but since he lost that battle, Anakin was fated to fall to the Darkside
I think one should add that this is (to my knowledge) just a fan theory but not confirmed by John Williams or George Lucas. I mean it is a nice theory though, but peoples already pretend its an official fact.
Thanks for sharing your favorite scene from the original trilogy. One of mine is the moment Luke tells the Emperor “I’m a Jedi, like my father before me.” He’s reinforcing the memory of Anakin over Darth Vader.
The pod race scene is such a special effects masterpiece and I feel it’s often over looked There are moments I can’t tell what is CGI and what is practical in a movie from 1999, that’s crazy. The special effects of sobulba’s racer getting destroyed is so freaking impressive.
Qui-Gonn is by far my favourite Jedi. Being a ”Grey” Jedi he listened to the living Force and not being ruled by doctrine. If he survived and trained Anakin, Vader would never existed. And Liam playing him is just awesome. But then again, the interactions between Obi and Anakin in Episode II and III is just plain awesome as older and younger brother. But Obi was far to young to train a wild card like Anakin. Either way, I still love how it turned out but theorizing is always fun. 😉
I believe George once said Qui-Gonn is the embodiment of what the Jedi were supposed to be. Whereas the rest of the council was an example of how they had fallen from that and lost their way. This is also why he is the first to become a force ghost (at least out of the timelines we follow) and even had to partially teach Yoda how this was accomplished, and subsequently Ben. There are a LOT of suggestions throughout the animate shows and George Lucas interviews that if Qui Gon hadn't died and been able to train Anakin himself he may not have fallen. Yoda even speaks on this a but in the formerly canon (pre-Disney) Revenge of the Sith novelization during the senate room fight with Palpatine. He realizes the Jedi are completely outmatched, they had already "lost" this fight ages ago and have lost their way, and were blind as a result to the dark sides machinations, who had been working in secret for centuries to grow strong enough for this moment.
Qui-Gon *isn't* a grey Jedi. A grey jedi is an umbrella term for force users that aren't committed to either the dark side or light side. Qui-Gon was absolutely a light side user and a Jedi, he was just at odds with conventional Jedi wisdom at times. This made him a 'maverick' Jedi, but he was still a fully-committed member of the Jedi Order.
I was lucky enough to get to see the original props and models they used and I was utterly amazed at what the people in the stands of the podrace actually are. They are different colored cotton ear buds. They used an air compressor to blow air from under that model to make them move so it looked like a living crowd. It's not till you see all those models that you get a sense of how amazing the people that actually created it all are.
I love the tradgedy and character of Maul. He has very little buildup in this movie but his character and story really fleshes out in (spoiler) the clone wars and rebles animated series.
Quick Character Breakdown: Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor, you eventually figured out who this was) Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson, Obi-Wan's master) Anakin Skywalker (Jake Lloyd) Padmé Amidala (Natalie Portman, Queen of Naboo who posed as a handmaiden numerous times during the movie) Sabé (Keira Knightly, one of Queen Amidala's handmaidens and the one who disguises herself as the queen for her protection) Mace Windu (Samuel L. Jackson (AKA Nick Fury) Jedi Master on the council) Senator Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid, Senator from Naboo that councils Queen Amidala and eventually gets elected Supreme Chancellor) Jar Jar Binks (Ahmed Best) Shmi Skywalker (Pernilla August, Anakin's mother) Supreme Chancellor Valorum (Terence Stamp, Supreme Chancellor until Queen Amidala raises a vote of no confidence in him in which he was then voted out and succeeded by Senator Palpatine) I think those are the main ones that confuse people and/or may need to know in the future. I did leave a few out that had sizable parts in the movie but I just deemed not as important.
Fun fact: On 34:06, Qui-Gon is the first Jedi to to duel a Sith lord in over 1,000 years. See, the Jedi Order thought the Sith were extinct, but one survived named Darth Bane, he created a law known as the "Rule of Two" which states that no more than two Sith Lords should exist, the master to embody power, and the apprentice to want to have all that power his/her master has for himself/herself. The Sith died out because when they were not fighting Jedi, they fought against each other, for supremacy as wielders of the Force.
Thank you! Just watched Episode 2 and will upload in a week or so. I will probably try and watch as much as the Clone Wars series before episode 3. Looking forward to Obi Wan tonight!
The scene where Padme reassures Anakin touches me a lot. It shows how caring she is. She's the friend we'd like to have. The bond between her and Anakin begins to develop. For now, I'd say Padme is playing a big sister role. 🙂
Oh My Young Padawan! If you cried with this one... Great reaction! You're going to enjoy Clone Wars! P.S: You're right, Anakin brought balance, but not in the way that everyone expected! C' Ya!
Hi Sarah, very glad to see you. You've chosen the right time for the video. On May 25, 1977, episode IV was released. Thus, the great saga of George Lucas turned 45 years old!!! May the force come with you, always.
Thank you and thanks for being one of the few to notice this!!! I recently found out about that and was hoping some knowledgeable fans would pick up on it!
It’s fair to say that this trilogy is what Lucas always imagined Star Wars to look like but in the 70s and 80s the didn’t have the technology to pull it off.
Clone Wars is my favorite star wars "story" I think it's the best part of the saga because of the development and enrichment George Lucas and Dave Filoni gave to both characters that came before the show and the badass new ones as well, especially Ahsoka, who I think has one of the best character arcs in modern media. I want to know what you think of it soon!! Great stuff Sarah 😊
I heard it's so GREAT! Also a few people now are saying I should watch the Clone Wars before Episode 3, so I will be putting longer cuts of reactions videos to the Clone Wars on my patreon channel when it's all set up next week.
But here Darth Maul did not expect that move from Obi-Wan, Anakin was very arrogant and let Obi-Wan know his intentions, here Obi-Wan took Darth Maul totally by surprise
@@rvelezbarreda I asummed that Maul is a "classic" Sith not a created by Palpatine with a hudge ammount of Middichlorians what could explain why Anaking/Vador are more instable regarding the dark side.
Sarah, I think Geoge Lucas would enjoy seeing your reaction. 😀 He would be so tickled when you screamed "NICE" as Sebulba's pod came apart! When George Lucas was young, he wanted to be a racing car driver. His first movie "American Graffiti" was set in the 1950s and featured teenagers and cars, including a young Harrison Ford driving one. In fact, because Harrison Ford had been in his other movie, Lucas decided not to put him in Star Wars, as he wanted a cast completely different from his other movie. As you know he ended up changing his mind and used Ford in Star Wars, and again in "Raiders of the Lost Ark". So as it turned out, Harrison Ford is in all of his stuff now. The story is that since he was not using Ford, he got him to help with the auditions by reading the part of Han, but Lucas then felt that Ford was the best choice for the role. American Graffiti's lead was played by a young Ron Howard. George asked Ron Howard to direct the prequels, but he declined. Ron Howard ended up taking over directing the movie "Solo". Ron's daughter, Bryce Dallas Howard directed some of the new Mandalorian episodes. George Lucas had a dispute with the director's guild, and this was a reason why some directors would not work with him. The guild would have penalized them, possibly expelled them for working with George Lucas. George ended up having to direct the PT* himself. The dispute began when the guild wanted the director's name to be put at the start of the film. George wanted to have his usual Star Wars writing at the start. If you are interested have a look at some videos about the stories about this. There is also the story that Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford were drunk when they met Lando on Cloud City. *PT - Prequel Trilogy
Absolutely loved your reaction to this! Your reaction to Qui Gon was very sweet! I love that character as well. He is one of my favorites!! I really look forward to seeing your future Star Wars reactions!!
The E.T. Easter egg is under the category of turnabout seeing as in Spielberg's movie the little alien comes across a kid in a yoda costume during trick or treating. Of course since Lucas and Spielberg are besties it's not surprising. In Indiana Jones movies there are a couple scenes where Spielberg slips in some star wars references such as in temple of doom one of the clubs they drive by in Shanghai while escaping from the Chinese mob has a sign naming it to be club obi wan and in raiders of the lost arc hidden within a wall covered in ancient Egyptian writing you can just make out the images of the most famous droid duo in galactic history.
Qui-gon Jinn's death was the catalyst that saw us go down the timeline to the original trilogy. If he had lived, things would have been VERY different. You'll see what I mean once you watch the next two :)
Yes, even though Obi-Wan was a great Jedi, he didn’t have the wisdom required to lead Anakin away from the dark path, which Qui-Gon might have had succeeded in doing.
@@Dinosaurs_with_laser_guns Not only that but qui-gon would have teached Ani how to Deal with his loses and helped him with letting go. Beeing more the father figuer he needed instead of the brotherly figuer he got as Obi-Wan
I have to say I am REALLY glad you are watching these on a big screen. It's really sad that so many reactors watch movies like this on computers. These films were designed to be seen on as large a screen as possible and they really pack a lot of detail into the frame. They're meant to feel immersive. If you watch it on a computer or tablet, you're really only seeing a fraction of the film.
Just a tip, the reaction to this is top notch all the way through but if you are short on time, from 26:49 on it gets particular amazing due to the pod racing scene reaction and all though it was really sad seeing the reaction to Qui-Gon
Great reaction. I really enjoyed the two different camera angles you had for watching the movie. Ngl I teared up watching you get emotional with Qui-Gon’s death. Can’t wait for you to watch the next two movies. Your doggo took a nice nap, he or she was so relaxed. Thx🎥😃
I know this is incredibly late but I still wanted to comment. I am a huge Star Wars fan and collector. I have a lot of the old figures and vehicles, just to name a few. I have 3 of the black series lightsabers ( Vader, green Luke, blue Kenobi) I also have a bunch of the black series electronic helmets( Vader, Boba Fett, Mandalorian, Luke xwing, Stormtrooper, Biker Scout)My favorite movie is Empire! 💖💖
Thank you so much for the videos. Your passion for the world of Star Wars is so nice to see. Your knowledge that grows with each episode is fun to watch. Thank you very much! Please keep making more content with this world! I think you’re great!❤
@@Progger11 Yes, but C3PO is so much more... He literally did not have need for a protocol droid, he had use for his extra functions(in this case translations).
42:26 (Duel of fates plays): Darth Maul activates his dual saber. Snaxan says, “Yooo!!! let’s go Mauuul!!! Me: (Yelling): I wish I had a girlfriend like youuu!!! -The Disneyland Neighbor
It's nice that you're able to watch on the big screen and not a tiny PC monitor. Not quite the theatre experience but the next best thing. I really believe it enhances the Star Wars experience.
So cool! SW EP1 is my fave all time for numerous reasons ~ There's always a bigger fish! If someone could take the moment when Qui-Gon is between the laser shields meditating and switch the picture out with Gandolf the Grey (with sword, hood, etc) and then take the moment when Gandolf the White is arriving at Helm's Deep on Shadowfax (look to the east) and switch that picture out with Qui-Gon (holding his green saber)...2 fave moments from fave movies, fave characters... that would be all time & I could die in peace.
"Are you an angel?" :O Nah, but seriously. I also watched this one on cinema... the whole trilogy really touched some deep memories, I was just a kid then.... but man, it was so emotional!!!
Ayo we doing Star Wars Prequels? LETS GOOOO Loved your enthusiastic reaction all throughout. When you started tearing up at Qui Gon's fate, damn did I feel that. Duel of the Fates really hits hard. Looking forward to your reaction to Episode II and III as well as Clone Wars, because if this video is anything to go by, those'll be an _awesome_ react!
Happy you are reacting to Star Wars on ur channel now! The Force will be with you always :) btw there are some cool Star Wars games to play and check out like Star Wars Battlefront 2, Jedi Fallen Order and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic (the Remake coming next year) :p
The remake of kotor is exciting, I’ve always heard great things about the original, I’ll be playing fallen order soon, and also the quantified dreams Star Wars project is very intriguing!
@@SnaxanGaming Indeed..thats awesome! btw its not Star Wars but there is a game that you should definitely consider adding to your gaming channel which will bring in new legion fans of this world as subs ;p Personally i believe you will fall in love with characters of this Sci Fi action adventure rpg with its intricate plot, a multitude of story choices and outcomes, amazing voice acting and beautiful worlds. And you can play it now This game is Mass Effect Legendary Edition and its one of the best games ever made ;) there are a couple YT reactors playing it recently too. Enjoy your day and have fun gaming Sarah!
It's such a delight seeing someone who enjoys the Gungans. I first experienced them in 1999 and was confused a bit but ultimately thought they were fun.
The best part of these videos is your internal conflict, immersion, & emotion. …. Reflected by the close ups of your dogs blissfully unaware of your turmoil.
i remember seeing this movie in the cinema when i was 10 and it blew me away!!! and yes, 100% you HAVE to watch The Clone Wars series after you watch the prequel trilogy. it's some of the best Star Wars content ever made and my personal favourite part of the Star Wars franchise. just be sure to watch the episodes in chronological order, not air date, otherwise you'll get really confused. you can easily find the chronological order online. i'll leave you to it. can't wait for your reaction to Attack Of The Clones :)
Another point in star wars is that light saber colours matter. The hilt is generally crafted by the Jedi themselves to suit their style; but the kyber crystal inside which gives the saber its colour denotes their strength. A green saber user means that their connection to the force is their strongest asset. A blue user means that the user is almost certainly a better duelist than they are force sensitive. Which explains Qui Gon drops to his knees & meditates when locked out from Maul; also why Qui Gon believes so resolutely in the prophecy, and gave his life for it. It also explains why Luke initially trains with his father’s old blue sabre, but later on crafts his own to be green as his connection to the force is eventually proven to be stronger.
Fun Fact for you: If you'd ever watched "Whose Line Is It Anyway?", The pod race announcer is voiced by Greg Proops who has made appearances on "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" On multiple occasions
@@navybuddy1047 Yeah, he was on an adaption of "Hollywood Squares" and that prior to an episode of the gameshow, one of the other Stars in the Squares asked a trivia question about their fellow Squares and that was how I'd found out that Greg Proops was the pod race announcer, because he'd repeated the line "I Don't Care What Galaxy You're From, But That's Gotta Hurt"
@@MrZackavelli how is it spoiling the movie for her, especially when she's watching these movies in the order of their original release and that it's painfully obvious that actor Ian Mcdirmand, was the same person that played the Emperor in the 3rd movie in the original trilogy???
@@karlsmith2570 See, the thing is, it's *not* painfully obvious. Back when the prequels were coming out, no one knew Palpatine's exact deal. In fact, in Ian's ROTS interview, he begins with saying "I haven't been allowed to say this until now, but I play Emperor Palpatine." I remember the prequels' theater run. No one knew if Palpatine was a clone of the Emperor who was in cahoots with him leading both sides, a failed clone created by the Emperor who turned good and led the fight against the CIS, maybe he was the Emperor's twin who was a good guy, maybe the Emperor had a Jekyll and Hyde thing going on; it was a mystery. There's a reason that it's never spelled out for the audience in eps. I and II that Palpatine and Sidious are one and the same.
Two fun facts 1) during the parade at the end of you swap the boys choir out of a men’s choir you’ll notice that they are singing the emperor’s theme and 2) if you stick till the end of the credits you’ll hear the imperial march and Vader’s breathing
Yes you did just see E.T. This explains why E.T was so interested in the kid in the Yoda costume because he recognized Yoda. It also explains why E.T was able to help the kids fly, he just used the force. In other words E.T is actually a star wars movie.
Just watching this reminds me how adorable Jar Jar is. As for Anakin, I think the problem is partially with the sometimes blocky dialogue for which Lucas is famous, so naturally it was more difficult for a child actor to perform it. Still, I think Anakin had enough good moments, such as when he said goodbye to his mother. (I assume George Lucas wrote "yippee" into the script)
If you only saw the movies, you wouldn't notice this, but it's extra context and info from the novelisation. There's an extra arc with young Anakin before he meets Qui Gonn's party. He's sent out to trade with Jawas for parts, for Watto. He's caught overnight, camped with an injured Tuskan Raider. The Force drew him to those Nubian parts. This is why Watto had the relevant parts. Anakin firing the missile inside the ship to hit that exact spot; that was the Force. It sent him the signal, and controlled his aim.
Since you mentioned that you'd want to get into "The Clone Wars" after watching The prequel trilogy, you might also want to add "Rebels" and "The Bad Batch" to that list as well
You are the best reactor to the Star Wars prequels I have seen yet. Great reaction. Qui Gon waa my favorite too. But Obi Wan Kenobi is really great too.
First time viewer here. I really appreciated the shots of your TV from behind your back, it’s simple and looks cool. I feel it’s something that’s gonna catch on on other reactors’ videos.
@@SnaxanGaming *Yes! John Williams is amazing too...unfortunately I missed that show. I like your enthusiams to the Prequels. Most Star Wars fans have vitriol for them but I saw them with my Sister originally and they are my fav...especially Episode II and III. You have my support, keep up the great work!*
Hi From Ireland, its so weird but cool to see someone experience these films that i loved as a kid for the first time...every movie just gets better..R2's first words to CPO are 'you are practically naked' so funny, i never thought about how crazy that is..Hope u enjoy them all. U also look so beautiful, dope t-shirt😊
Hi Gary, welcome! I've finally completed the prequels and.... all amazing films really. I even enjoyed the 2nd one which people said was not good. Anyway thanks for stopping by. Ireland is a beautiful country by the way!
I feel like, if you like Jar Jar, his voice becomes iconic (although I would note that Ahmed Best seems to have toned it down slightly in Attack of the Clones and The Clone Wars tv series).
Well.....reaction youtubers are always liars when it comes to what they have seen or not! This girl reacted to Mandalorian series acting like he understood everything and now she is seeing ep.1 FOR THE FIRST TIME........c'mon.
Tears for Qui-Gon, very touching. Great recognizing E.T.! Keep going in your journey, Clone Wars will rock you! In the theatrical version, Yoda was a puppet, they changed to CGI for the DVDs and when Lucas modified the prequels.
As someone who originally saw Phantom Menace in the theatres when it was released I can verify that many of us took an instant dislike to Jar Jar when the movie came out. It had nothing to do with fan forums as those were mostly not a huge thing back in the day. We mostly thought he was bad comic relief and frankly a call back to a lot of blatantly racist tropes from older movies from the 1940s and 1950s.
I agree with you on Anakin. Everyone defends him out of sympathy for what happened to the actor, but I never really liked his acting. He wasn't the right kid for the role, in my opinion. It's hard to get kids to play a role just right tho, and I think GL decided to be rather lenient there(probably not a great idea when making a movie, but I suspect that in some ways, he's really a softy at heart).
Seriously, congratulations... most people who watch the prequels don't notice right away that Darth Sidious is emperor palpitating. You have proven yourself to be smarter than most. And, that's not a spoiler. You will still enjoy this. Continue the journey…
Around 1,000 years before these movies, the Jedi and Sith were in the middle of a great, galaxy spanning war. Both sides had ranks of Masters, Apprentices, and regular non-Force troops. Darth Bane changed this, and managed to end the war, leaving the Jedi to believe the Sith were now extinct. This let Darth Bane slide into the shadows, take an apprentice, and begin the Rule Of Two. As the only surviving heir of the Sith Empire, he used their massive resources to strategically ferment unrest, using proxies etc. This mission was passed from Sith to Sith, all the way to Darth Sidious, who is the end product of the Rule Of Two, and is in the lucky spot to be able to flip the galaxy on it's head. He's basically the final guy in a relay race, there to take it over the line. The end point of this grand plan, is the Clone Wars itself, which is designed to turn the Jedi into warriors, thin their numbers, and pin the blame entirely on the Jedi. The Darth Bane trilogy of novels is cool. If you're willing to jump into a completely different part of the timeline where so much is different, it's great. It's fascinating as Sith lore.
Qui-Gon was the Jedi that Darth Sidious feared the most. Mostly because he wasn't as bound by doctrine as the rest of the Jedi order. He was more attuned to the living force and what was going on around him. That's why he was able to sense there was something seriously wrong before the other Jedi were. Yoda had the order focused more on the future. Darth Plageius and Darth Sidious knew that if their plan was discovered prematurely by the Jedi they were in trouble. Eliminating Qui-Gon was important to their plans success.

I love The Phantom Menace and I appreciate all the talking, bonds, and funny moments.
The pod race scene is such a special effects masterpiece and I feel it’s often over looked
There are moments I can’t tell what is CGI and what is practical in a movie from 1999, that’s crazy. The special effects of sobulba’s racer getting destroyed is so freaking impressive.
Just another example that artistic skills and talent are more important than software and hardware 😉
I might be wrong, but I seem to remember that Sebulba's racer getting destroyed was mostly practical. It was a miniature.
Not to mention the sound mixing!
The Pods and grand stand were miniatures. The track, canyon & plains were cgi. I think the outcrop the Tusken Raiders were on was green screen.
Qui-Gonn is by far my favourite Jedi. Being a ”Grey” Jedi he listened to the living Force and not being ruled by doctrine. If he survived and trained Anakin, Vader would never existed. And Liam playing him is just awesome. But then again, the interactions between Obi and Anakin in Episode II and III is just plain awesome as older and younger brother.

This is also why he is the first to become a force ghost (at least out of the timelines we follow) and even had to partially teach Yoda how this was accomplished, and subsequently Ben.
There are a LOT of suggestions throughout the animate shows and George Lucas interviews that if Qui Gon hadn't died and been able to train Anakin himself he may not have fallen.
Yoda even speaks on this a but in the formerly canon (pre-Disney) Revenge of the Sith novelization during the senate room fight with Palpatine. He realizes the Jedi are completely outmatched, they had already "lost" this fight ages ago and have lost their way, and were blind as a result to the dark sides machinations, who had been working in secret for centuries to grow strong enough for this moment.
Qui-Gon *isn't* a grey Jedi. A grey jedi is an umbrella term for force users that aren't committed to either the dark side or light side.
Qui-Gon was absolutely a light side user and a Jedi, he was just at odds with conventional Jedi wisdom at times. This made him a 'maverick' Jedi, but he was still a fully-committed member of the Jedi Order.
@@MrZackavelli he was a “Protestant” Jedi rather than catholic. Heh.
QG is the most Jedi of the Jedi not some grey nonsense. *Qui-Gon was the Chosen One all along but he was too humble to see it.*

I was lucky enough to get to see the original props and models they used and I was utterly amazed at what the people in the stands of the podrace actually are. They are different colored cotton ear buds. They used an air compressor to blow air from under that model to make them move so it looked like a living crowd. It's not till you see all those models that you get a sense of how amazing the people that actually created it all are.
I love the tradgedy and character of Maul. He has very little buildup in this movie but his character and story really fleshes out in (spoiler) the clone wars and rebles animated series.
Quick Character Breakdown:
Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor, you eventually figured out who this was)
Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson, Obi-Wan's master)
Anakin Skywalker (Jake Lloyd)
Padmé Amidala (Natalie Portman, Queen of Naboo who posed as a handmaiden numerous times during the movie)
Sabé (Keira Knightly, one of Queen Amidala's handmaidens and the one who disguises herself as the queen for her protection)
Mace Windu (Samuel L. Jackson (AKA Nick Fury) Jedi Master on the council)
Senator Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid, Senator from Naboo that councils Queen Amidala and eventually gets elected Supreme Chancellor)
Jar Jar Binks (Ahmed Best)
Shmi Skywalker (Pernilla August, Anakin's mother)
Supreme Chancellor Valorum (Terence Stamp, Supreme Chancellor until Queen Amidala raises a vote of no confidence in him in which he was then voted out and succeeded by Senator Palpatine)
I think those are the main ones that confuse people and/or may need to know in the future. I did leave a few out that had sizable parts in the movie but I just deemed not as important.
27:57 The dog scratching and the pod racer sound combined 😂
This is the best TPM reaction I've ever seen
This reaction is everything I didn’t know I needed to see today! Love your energy!
Fun fact: On 34:06, Qui-Gon is the first Jedi to to duel a Sith lord in over 1,000 years. See, the Jedi Order thought the Sith were extinct, but one survived named Darth Bane, he created a law known as the "Rule of Two" which states that no more than two Sith Lords should exist, the master to embody power, and the apprentice to want to have all that power his/her master has for himself/herself. The Sith died out because when they were not fighting Jedi, they fought against each other, for supremacy as wielders of the Force.
This is my 1st time watching one if your reactions. Enjoyed your enthusiasm! Looking forward for episodes 2 and 3!👍👍
Thank you! Just watched Episode 2 and will upload in a week or so. I will probably try and watch as much as the Clone Wars series before episode 3. Looking forward to Obi Wan tonight!
You will enjoy Kenobi even more if you watch Episode 3 first
The scene where Padme reassures Anakin touches me a lot. It shows how caring she is. She's the friend we'd like to have. The bond between her and Anakin begins to develop. For now, I'd say Padme is playing a big sister role. 🙂
Yeah exactly. In this film, she cared about Anakin as a younger brother. It wasn't until Attack of the Clones that she actually fell I love with him
Oh My Young Padawan! If you cried with this one...
Great reaction!
You're going to enjoy Clone Wars!
P.S: You're right, Anakin brought balance, but not in the way that everyone expected!
C' Ya!
Hi Sarah, very glad to see you. You've chosen the right time for the video. On May 25, 1977, episode IV was released. Thus, the great saga of George Lucas turned 45 years old!!! May the force come with you, always.
Thank you and thanks for being one of the few to notice this!!! I recently found out about that and was hoping some knowledgeable fans would pick up on it!
Qui-gon is very much what a Jedi truly should be. He really was a father to anakin and as you know, something he really needed
It’s fair to say that this trilogy is what Lucas always imagined Star Wars to look like but in the 70s and 80s the didn’t have the technology to pull it off.
What he got in the 70s and 80s was better though
Clone Wars is my favorite star wars "story"
I think it's the best part of the saga because of the development and enrichment George Lucas and Dave Filoni gave to both characters that came before the show and the badass new ones as well, especially Ahsoka, who I think has one of the best character arcs in modern media. I want to know what you think of it soon!! Great stuff Sarah 😊
I heard it's so GREAT! Also a few people now are saying I should watch the Clone Wars before Episode 3, so I will be putting longer cuts of reactions videos to the Clone Wars on my patreon channel when it's all set up next week.
Darth Maul could say to Obiwan "Don't Try this, I have the High Ground"
But here Darth Maul did not expect that move from Obi-Wan, Anakin was very arrogant and let Obi-Wan know his intentions, here Obi-Wan took Darth Maul totally by surprise
@@rvelezbarreda I asummed that Maul is a "classic" Sith not a created by Palpatine with a hudge ammount of Middichlorians what could explain why Anaking/Vador are more instable regarding the dark side.
FIGHT scene with lightsabers are the best here. Ray Park as Darth Maul and our Jedi Duo just masterpiece
Sarah, I think Geoge Lucas would enjoy seeing your reaction. 😀
He would be so tickled when you screamed "NICE" as Sebulba's pod came apart!
When George Lucas was young, he wanted to be a racing car driver. His first movie "American Graffiti" was set in the 1950s and featured teenagers and cars, including a young Harrison Ford driving one. In fact, because Harrison Ford had been in his other movie, Lucas decided not to put him in Star Wars, as he wanted a cast completely different from his other movie. As you know he ended up changing his mind and used Ford in Star Wars, and again in "Raiders of the Lost Ark". So as it turned out, Harrison Ford is in all of his stuff now. The story is that since he was not using Ford, he got him to help with the auditions by reading the part of Han, but Lucas then felt that Ford was the best choice for the role.
American Graffiti's lead was played by a young Ron Howard. George asked Ron Howard to direct the prequels, but he declined. Ron Howard ended up taking over directing the movie "Solo". Ron's daughter, Bryce Dallas Howard directed some of the new Mandalorian episodes.
George Lucas had a dispute with the director's guild, and this was a reason why some directors would not work with him. The guild would have penalized them, possibly expelled them for working with George Lucas. George ended up having to direct the PT* himself.
The dispute began when the guild wanted the director's name to be put at the start of the film. George wanted to have his usual Star Wars writing at the start. If you are interested have a look at some videos about the stories about this. There is also the story that Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford were drunk when they met Lando on Cloud City.
*PT - Prequel Trilogy
Absolutely loved your reaction to this! Your reaction to Qui Gon was very sweet! I love that character as well. He is one of my favorites!! I really look forward to seeing your future Star Wars reactions!!
The E.T. Easter egg is under the category of turnabout seeing as in Spielberg's movie the little alien comes across a kid in a yoda costume during trick or treating. Of course since Lucas and Spielberg are besties it's not surprising. In Indiana Jones movies there are a couple scenes where Spielberg slips in some star wars references such as in temple of doom one of the clubs they drive by in Shanghai while escaping from the Chinese mob has a sign naming it to be club obi wan and in raiders of the lost arc hidden within a wall covered in ancient Egyptian writing you can just make out the images of the most famous droid duo in galactic history.
Qui-gon Jinn's death was the catalyst that saw us go down the timeline to the original trilogy. If he had lived, things would have been VERY different. You'll see what I mean once you watch the next two :)
Yes, even though Obi-Wan was a great Jedi, he didn’t have the wisdom required to lead Anakin away from the dark path, which Qui-Gon might have had succeeded in doing.
@@Dinosaurs_with_laser_guns Not only that but qui-gon would have teached Ani how to Deal with his loses and helped him with letting go. Beeing more the father figuer he needed instead of the brotherly figuer he got as Obi-Wan
maybe, from a certain point of view...
Where Oni Wan was more like a big brother to anakin, Qui Gon would've been more like a father
I have to say I am REALLY glad you are watching these on a big screen. It's really sad that so many reactors watch movies like this on computers. These films were designed to be seen on as large a screen as possible and they really pack a lot of detail into the frame. They're meant to feel immersive. If you watch it on a computer or tablet, you're really only seeing a fraction of the film.
its so good that new people actualy enjoing watch star wars movies and tv shows and i love your chanel
Just a tip, the reaction to this is top notch all the way through but if you are short on time, from 26:49 on it gets particular amazing due to the pod racing scene reaction and all though it was really sad seeing the reaction to Qui-Gon
Great reaction. I really enjoyed the two different camera angles you had for watching the movie. Ngl I teared up watching you get emotional with Qui-Gon’s death. Can’t wait for you to watch the next two movies. Your doggo took a nice nap, he or she was so relaxed. Thx🎥😃
Thanks! See you on the next one. Ps yeah the doggos are always trying to rest and chill ha
I know this is incredibly late but I still wanted to comment. I am a huge Star Wars fan and collector. I have a lot of the old figures and vehicles, just to name a few. I have 3 of the black series lightsabers ( Vader, green Luke, blue Kenobi) I also have a bunch of the black series electronic helmets( Vader, Boba Fett, Mandalorian, Luke xwing, Stormtrooper, Biker Scout)My favorite movie is Empire! 💖💖
I love your reaction!!! Not distracted and paying attention to small details. Keep it up and enjoy the Star Wars journey. Your dogs are chill! haha
Thank you so much for the videos. Your passion for the world of Star Wars is so nice to see. Your knowledge that grows with each episode is fun to watch. Thank you very much! Please keep making more content with this world! I think you’re great!❤
I think you missed the part where he said: "It's a protocol droid to help mom."
And Lucas missed when Owen said, "I have no need for a protocol droid."
@@Progger11 Yes, but C3PO is so much more... He literally did not have need for a protocol droid, he had use for his extra functions(in this case translations).
this is the cutest and most amazing star wars reaction in the whole galaxy < 3
42:26 (Duel of fates plays):
Darth Maul activates his dual saber.
Snaxan says, “Yooo!!! let’s go Mauuul!!!
Me: (Yelling): I wish I had a girlfriend like youuu!!!
-The Disneyland Neighbor
It's nice that you're able to watch on the big screen and not a tiny PC monitor. Not quite the theatre experience but the next best thing. I really believe it enhances the Star Wars experience.
So cool! SW EP1 is my fave all time for numerous reasons ~ There's always a bigger fish! If someone could take the moment when Qui-Gon is between the laser shields meditating and switch the picture out with Gandolf the Grey (with sword, hood, etc) and then take the moment when Gandolf the White is arriving at Helm's Deep on Shadowfax (look to the east) and switch that picture out with Qui-Gon (holding his green saber)...2 fave moments from fave movies, fave characters... that would be all time & I could die in peace.
I liked your reaction very much! You were really into it in the end ( ...and yes, the podrace was great too, especially the sound effects!).
The sound was amazing 100%!
Just happened across your channel. Absolutely love how enthusiastic you are for Star Wars!
It's such a cool universe, I love it :)
"Are you an angel?" :O
Nah, but seriously. I also watched this one on cinema... the whole trilogy really touched some deep memories, I was just a kid then.... but man, it was so emotional!!!
Ayo we doing Star Wars Prequels? LETS GOOOO
Loved your enthusiastic reaction all throughout. When you started tearing up at Qui Gon's fate, damn did I feel that. Duel of the Fates really hits hard.
Looking forward to your reaction to Episode II and III as well as Clone Wars, because if this video is anything to go by, those'll be an _awesome_ react!
Episode 3 is my favorite
Everyone seems to love the third!
Happy you are reacting to Star Wars on ur channel now! The Force will be with you always :) btw there are some cool Star Wars games to play and check out like Star Wars Battlefront 2, Jedi Fallen Order and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic (the Remake coming next year) :p
The remake of kotor is exciting, I’ve always heard great things about the original, I’ll be playing fallen order soon, and also the quantified dreams Star Wars project is very intriguing!
@@SnaxanGaming Indeed..thats awesome! btw its not Star Wars but there is a game that you should definitely consider adding to your gaming channel which will bring in new legion fans of this world as subs ;p Personally i believe you will fall in love with characters of this Sci Fi action adventure rpg with its intricate plot, a multitude of story choices and outcomes, amazing voice acting and beautiful worlds. And you can play it now This game is Mass Effect Legendary Edition and its one of the best games ever made ;) there are a couple YT reactors playing it recently too. Enjoy your day and have fun gaming Sarah!
Fun Fact~Actor who played Darth Maul also played the bad guy named Toad in the first live action X-Men movie...
It's such a delight seeing someone who enjoys the Gungans. I first experienced them in 1999 and was confused a bit but ultimately thought they were fun.
The best part of these videos is your internal conflict, immersion, & emotion.
…. Reflected by the close ups of your dogs blissfully unaware of your turmoil.
This is why I like watching it people's reactions from people who never seen things for the first time you can take it for what it is
loved this genuine reaction. liked and subscribed
i remember seeing this movie in the cinema when i was 10 and it blew me away!!! and yes, 100% you HAVE to watch The Clone Wars series after you watch the prequel trilogy. it's some of the best Star Wars content ever made and my personal favourite part of the Star Wars franchise. just be sure to watch the episodes in chronological order, not air date, otherwise you'll get really confused. you can easily find the chronological order online. i'll leave you to it. can't wait for your reaction to Attack Of The Clones :)
Looking forward to watching the clone wars too!
man when you see obi one hyping himself up before his solo fight with maul....i would have been freaked out, obi one pissed off is ruthless!
Another point in star wars is that light saber colours matter. The hilt is generally crafted by the Jedi themselves to suit their style; but the kyber crystal inside which gives the saber its colour denotes their strength. A green saber user means that their connection to the force is their strongest asset. A blue user means that the user is almost certainly a better duelist than they are force sensitive.
Which explains Qui Gon drops to his knees & meditates when locked out from Maul; also why Qui Gon believes so resolutely in the prophecy, and gave his life for it.
It also explains why Luke initially trains with his father’s old blue sabre, but later on crafts his own to be green as his connection to the force is eventually proven to be stronger.
Fun Fact for you:
If you'd ever watched "Whose Line Is It Anyway?", The pod race announcer is voiced by Greg Proops who has made appearances on "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" On multiple occasions
The minute I saw this, I now immediately hear it. I never knew!
@@navybuddy1047 Yeah, he was on an adaption of "Hollywood Squares" and that prior to an episode of the gameshow, one of the other Stars in the Squares asked a trivia question about their fellow Squares and that was how I'd found out that Greg Proops was the pod race announcer, because he'd repeated the line "I Don't Care What Galaxy You're From, But That's Gotta Hurt"
"Lord Sidious Reminds Me So Much Of Emperor Palpatine, Maybe They're One In The Same"
You're absolutely correct in this assessment
Way to spoil it for her
Kind of hard to miss.
Um, Matches, it's not a spoiler when it's incredibly obvious.
@@MrZackavelli how is it spoiling the movie for her, especially when she's watching these movies in the order of their original release and that it's painfully obvious that actor Ian Mcdirmand, was the same person that played the Emperor in the 3rd movie in the original trilogy???
@@karlsmith2570 See, the thing is, it's *not* painfully obvious.
Back when the prequels were coming out, no one knew Palpatine's exact deal. In fact, in Ian's ROTS interview, he begins with saying "I haven't been allowed to say this until now, but I play Emperor Palpatine."
I remember the prequels' theater run. No one knew if Palpatine was a clone of the Emperor who was in cahoots with him leading both sides, a failed clone created by the Emperor who turned good and led the fight against the CIS, maybe he was the Emperor's twin who was a good guy, maybe the Emperor had a Jekyll and Hyde thing going on; it was a mystery. There's a reason that it's never spelled out for the audience in eps. I and II that Palpatine and Sidious are one and the same.
Two fun facts 1) during the parade at the end of you swap the boys choir out of a men’s choir you’ll notice that they are singing the emperor’s theme and 2) if you stick till the end of the credits you’ll hear the imperial march and Vader’s breathing
I just love how the dog is in the background
I am excited for this! Really interesting to see you go down in star wars lore
Thanks for sharing my excitement!
Yes you did just see E.T. This explains why E.T was so interested in the kid in the Yoda costume because he recognized Yoda. It also explains why E.T was able to help the kids fly, he just used the force. In other words E.T is actually a star wars movie.
Now this is Pod racing! GREAT reaction, excellent video!!! My Star Wars question is what was the first SW movie you saw?
the crying over qui-gon but still trying to enjoy the awesome fight between Maul and Obi-wan hehe "*sniff* that's so cool tho"
Just watching this reminds me how adorable Jar Jar is.
As for Anakin, I think the problem is partially with the sometimes blocky dialogue for which Lucas is famous, so naturally it was more difficult for a child actor to perform it. Still, I think Anakin had enough good moments, such as when he said goodbye to his mother.
(I assume George Lucas wrote "yippee" into the script)
If you only saw the movies, you wouldn't notice this, but it's extra context and info from the novelisation. There's an extra arc with young Anakin before he meets Qui Gonn's party. He's sent out to trade with Jawas for parts, for Watto. He's caught overnight, camped with an injured Tuskan Raider. The Force drew him to those Nubian parts. This is why Watto had the relevant parts. Anakin firing the missile inside the ship to hit that exact spot; that was the Force. It sent him the signal, and controlled his aim.
Woah, that behind the back angle is pretty dynamic!
Since you mentioned that you'd want to get into "The Clone Wars" after watching The prequel trilogy, you might also want to add "Rebels" and "The Bad Batch" to that list as well
They are all on the list! So much to watch!
@@SnaxanGaming awesome
May I also suggest adding "The Mandalorian" to the list, if you haven't already added that to the watchlist
@@karlsmith2570 I have seen the Mandalorian also! :)
@@SnaxanGaming okay, I wasn't sure
I didn't see the videos listed in your reaction videos playlist on your channel, so that's why I had suggested it
The 2003 clone wars.
You are the best reactor to the Star Wars prequels I have seen yet. Great reaction. Qui Gon waa my favorite too. But Obi Wan Kenobi is really great too.
ET race in the galactic senate was my favourite Easter egg in this one
❤❤❤❤❤ya it’s very nice to see this through new eyes
First time viewer here. I really appreciated the shots of your TV from behind your back, it’s simple and looks cool. I feel it’s something that’s gonna catch on on other reactors’ videos.
*My client actually was the drummer in the Phil Harmonic show. You are going to love the prequels and the animated series*
Wow that is really really cool :) I've finished the prequels and they are amazing, episode 3 was heartbreaking and I loved episode 2 also.
@@SnaxanGaming *Yes! John Williams is amazing too...unfortunately I missed that show. I like your enthusiams to the Prequels. Most Star Wars fans have vitriol for them but I saw them with my Sister originally and they are my fav...especially Episode II and III. You have my support, keep up the great work!*
Wow, watching her cry when Qui Gon dies really got me. It was really sad :c
That is because this era or episodes reflects the best or Golden Times of the Jedi before their extinction.
These episodes were also known as 'The Dark Times' because of the bad and sad things that accorded during that era.
30:02 that pupper tongue is killing me 😅
Hi From Ireland, its so weird but cool to see someone experience these films that i loved as a kid for the first time...every movie just gets better..R2's first words to CPO are 'you are practically naked' so funny, i never thought about how crazy that is..Hope u enjoy them all. U also look so beautiful, dope t-shirt😊
Hi Gary, welcome! I've finally completed the prequels and.... all amazing films really. I even enjoyed the 2nd one which people said was not good. Anyway thanks for stopping by. Ireland is a beautiful country by the way!
I love how you really like Qui-Gon Jinn. The Duel of the Fate of Anakin.
The little dog side shots had me dead XD
"The speediest way is through...the planet core."
"That seems fishy."
"I love how Jar Jar Binks speaks!"
Don't worry... That feeling will wear off soon enough 🤣
I feel like, if you like Jar Jar, his voice becomes iconic (although I would note that Ahmed Best seems to have toned it down slightly in Attack of the Clones and The Clone Wars tv series).
Qui-gon-jin death in the theater's as a kid broke my heart for the first time lol 😂
It's always funny how a queen who says she won't condone a path that leads them to war also has guns hidden in her throne.
The long-distance shots of the pod race crowd was created by colored q-tips filling the stands.
WTF?! I LITERALLY CANT BELIEVE THIS! THOUGHT EVERYONE HAD SEEN STAR WARS AT LEAST ONCE!! I'M SHOCKED!
Well.....reaction youtubers are always liars when it comes to what they have seen or not! This girl reacted to Mandalorian series acting like he understood everything and now she is seeing ep.1 FOR THE FIRST TIME........c'mon.
The force is telling me things would have turned out differently For anakin if qui Gon Jinn had lived
90's to early 2000's... Take me back to that era...
love your real enthusiasm.
You gotta play Falllen Order soon Sarah, you just gotta on that beastly PC of yours.
After her episode 3 reaction
Tears for Qui-Gon, very touching. Great recognizing E.T.! Keep going in your journey, Clone Wars will rock you! In the theatrical version, Yoda was a puppet, they changed to CGI for the DVDs and when Lucas modified the prequels.
Seems like he has a nice habit of inserting new CGI for the dvd releases :)
I just stumbled across your channel and I have to say, that over the shoulder camera angle is pretty cool.
Thanks! I'm sure at some point others may start to do it too :) Appreciate you stopping by have a good one!
Thank you for not hating Jar-Jar at once, most fans did, but only because it was what they were supposed to do according to forums it felt like...
As someone who originally saw Phantom Menace in the theatres when it was released I can verify that many of us took an instant dislike to Jar Jar when the movie came out. It had nothing to do with fan forums as those were mostly not a huge thing back in the day. We mostly thought he was bad comic relief and frankly a call back to a lot of blatantly racist tropes from older movies from the 1940s and 1950s.
27:56 omg, the doggo synched with the movie in that precise second xD
How else is the pod racer gonna go that fast? lol
I agree with you on Anakin. Everyone defends him out of sympathy for what happened to the actor, but I never really liked his acting. He wasn't the right kid for the role, in my opinion. It's hard to get kids to play a role just right tho, and I think GL decided to be rather lenient there(probably not a great idea when making a movie, but I suspect that in some ways, he's really a softy at heart).
On the dvd special features they showed the last 2 boys up for the role the other was better but Lucas went for the American moppet.
First time to the channel and love it already. Never seen a reaction video with a camera behind the person. Nice
"Palpatine Looked Good In The First One, What Happened?"
That'll be explained in Episode III
Another awesome video again by my number one favourite youtuber ever
Thanks for the support!
Seriously, congratulations... most people who watch the prequels don't notice right away that Darth Sidious is emperor palpitating. You have proven yourself to be smarter than most. And, that's not a spoiler. You will still enjoy this. Continue the journey…
10:15 Sarah forgets about the force and their training. XD
Around 1,000 years before these movies, the Jedi and Sith were in the middle of a great, galaxy spanning war. Both sides had ranks of Masters, Apprentices, and regular non-Force troops. Darth Bane changed this, and managed to end the war, leaving the Jedi to believe the Sith were now extinct. This let Darth Bane slide into the shadows, take an apprentice, and begin the Rule Of Two. As the only surviving heir of the Sith Empire, he used their massive resources to strategically ferment unrest, using proxies etc. This mission was passed from Sith to Sith, all the way to Darth Sidious, who is the end product of the Rule Of Two, and is in the lucky spot to be able to flip the galaxy on it's head. He's basically the final guy in a relay race, there to take it over the line. The end point of this grand plan, is the Clone Wars itself, which is designed to turn the Jedi into warriors, thin their numbers, and pin the blame entirely on the Jedi.
The Darth Bane trilogy of novels is cool. If you're willing to jump into a completely different part of the timeline where so much is different, it's great. It's fascinating as Sith lore.
Thank you for posting this on the real Star Wars day. Happy 45th birthday Star Wars!
BTW thanks for being one of the few for noticing!
@@SnaxanGaming I celebrate Star Wars everyday...but May 25th will always have a special place in my heart.
Qui-Gon was the Jedi that Darth Sidious feared the most. Mostly because he wasn't as bound by doctrine as the rest of the Jedi order. He was more attuned to the living force and what was going on around him. That's why he was able to sense there was something seriously wrong before the other Jedi were. Yoda had the order focused more on the future. Darth Plageius and Darth Sidious knew that if their plan was discovered prematurely by the Jedi they were in trouble. Eliminating Qui-Gon was important to their plans success.
