- Woo-hoo! Because I'm a hopeless fan-girl...
This vid actually took me a very long time to put together. I had to play thru 3 separate times: LS & DS female, as well as LS male. Then afterword, I suddenly decided I didn't want a particular mod in it - a re-skin for the Ebon Hawk, and as you'll notice, the inside & outside of the Ebon Hawk is in nearly every scene, so I basically had to do it all over again.
But I had a lot of fun making this, I'd been thinking about doing it since I first considered making fan vids for RUclips. Enjoy!

Yay! My very 1st vid to be favored over 1oo times! Thanks guys! :)

Atton: "Are you an angel? Just kidding. I just hope some poor kid doesn't use it."
3,918 Years Later...
Anakin: "Are you an angel?"
Atton used force sight and he didn't even realize it!
OH NO
REFERENCES
Audiences' responses in theater seats of the Phantom Menace hearing Anakin saying "Are you an angel": *facepalm*
+Gavin Lawrence lol hahahaha
I swear, Atton has to be a remote ancestor of Han Solo.
***** I think it's a matter of Han having had the chance to redeem himself, while Atton has been ignoring his past (at least up until you meet him.)
well the designers did make him to resemble solo right down to the jacket and stripy trousers, I mean they already had the Ebon Falcon I mean Ebon Hawk in K1 may as well go all the way :D
That was kind of the point. The devs wanted you to assume Atton was just a standard Han Solo ripoff so that the revelation that he was actually this psychotic Jedi killer was much more shocking.
LegendofLegaia929 I actually never stumbled on that revelation. I had it spoiled by others telling me about it. In fact, I didn't even know you could make your crew into Jedis until my third playthrough.

It's easy to imagine why you'd miss that on an initial playthrough.
While the game does inform the player about influence, it's never made out to be this crucial thing that you should 100% try to get with all of the party members and you don't realize that it can do anything besides give you access to your companion's backstories until you train your first Jedi.
You've also got the fact that some companions don't have a lot of opportunities to influence them and to train Atton, you have to randomly have him in your party while exploring Nar Shaddaa, so if he's one of your numerous bench warmers, it's pretty much impossible to train him to be a Jedi without some sort of guide.
I've always loved Atton's typing on thin air when sitting in the pilot's seat
DarkWingsAscending dude its best when he has dual swords equipped so he mindlessly has these two giant sword blades jutting through his face 😭
@@itwontcomeout5678 literally
@@universall__4973 hey he’s using the force early.
"Anybody here catch that? All I understood was 'very'."
"I think he wanted us to give up the General to his poorly trained collection of bounty hunters."
"Oh, that would explain it. Which one do you want?"
"I'll take the stupid one, who decided to threaten us rather than shoot us when he had the chance."
Bao-Dur doesn't get a lot of good shots in verbally, but when he does it's freaking amazing.
I wonder if Atton and Bao-Dur knew eachother during the Mandalorian Wars, in the Sith Tomb, Bao-Dur is extremely protective of Atton, and the two have the repoir in their few scenes together
"I have had enough of this- I will be in my chambers"- Kreia
"Yeah, me, too. I'll be in my chambers, but since i don't have any, I guess I will go back to the cockpit like I always do" - Atton
"I'll call you if I need someone useless." God that was soooo good.
"Yeah, and I'm also good at running and drinking, your majesty."
That exchange _alone_ cemented my love for this game.
"That's what I do. I drink and I know things."
Atton Rand; satirizing the Phantom Menace thousands of years before that movie even took place.
I am starting to see why Lucas wanted to remove this from canon. "Are you an angel? Aw, I'm just kidding. That's the worst line I've ever used. Hope some poor kid doesn't start using it." Yeah, Lucas is that arrogant.
Hell, why not remove the Phantom Menace from canon? We all know how epic (not) that movie was. Oh, then we wouldn't have Darth Maul. God forbid.
People like Darth Maul for the same reason why people like Boba Fett.
Although to Maul's credit at least he wasn't taken out by a blind Han Solo.
Solidus-Skully both of them survived their supposed deaths
Maul only lost because he got cocky
“Well at least we know it’s not a trap.”
“No Atton I think it is a trap.”
Couldn’t stop laughing
for a Republican Intelligence agent, he’s one dumb son of a bitch lol
1:42 If you have Kreia in the party with him, this becomes even better. XD
Kreia: Don't be a fool! Atris stole the ship and the droid!
Atton: Says you.
I love how everybody just keeps on ribbing Atton even though I'm pretty sure he could kill all of them within seconds if he wanted to.
That's what makes it fun.
Lol! Atton is so awkward! "It's distracting...I mean...for the droids..."
"why don't you go sit on a rocket"
I just got it. ROFL!
My favorite line in KoToR 2 is "Jumping into the pit is a good idea. Get to the ground faster that way. ~jumps into the pit~"
The guy: “Why did you do that? Are you crazy? Now the Exchange is gonna keep hunting me down and sending goons until I give them their credits!!”
Exile: “That’s right, so now I’m going to kill you!”
The guy: “W-wait- what?!?”
"Meditation envy?"
"Why don't you go sit on a rocket?"
"are you am angel? Nah I'm just joking, that's the worst line I've ever used. Hope some poor kid won't start saying it"
Its funny because Annakin said that to Padme when he was a kid XD
an*
Jeff Miller Same! I think you have to be a female and it's probably a cut content
+Anakin Skywalker Don't
Atton: "Get the rocket launcher!"
"Find the emergency supplies?"
"Yes, and some clothes too."
"Damnit!"
The Atton romance was such a freaking tease - I seriously hate Obsidian for this!
It's not really their fault, lucas arts forced them to cut alot of content just so the game could be release game before Christmas
The handmaiden romance for male exiles is a tease to
the depth in character in kotor 2 is superior to kotor 1 due all the characters hidden secrets and back stories, atton i feel was the best example of this. if the game were given time to be completed i reckon it may have been regarded as better than the first
With the restored content mod I reckon Kotor 2 > Kotor 1 but without the mod I feel Kotor 1 > Kotor 2
i much prefer the darker tone in kotor 2, and the characters are better. but seeing as 2 is unfinished and kotor 1 has the cool revan twist, i suppose the first is better
DavidtheWavid and HK-47 is along for the ride too
It IS better than the first. No debate. KOTOR is full of surface-level ideas, tolerable dialogue, and mediocre characters. More often, the party members annoyed me, than intrigued, or entertained me. Carth being a whiny bitch 24/7 is a good example of that.
KOTOR II's characters are the best I've ever seen in any game I've played.
"Shutta" and "Why don't you got sit on a rocket?" makes me crack up every time.
when i played a male Exile, the one thing i found very useful from Atton was him teaching the Exile "how to play pazaak in the head.." This sort of thing wasn't a Jedi thing, nor did it take any special training to do. It was his own simple technique. You just counted things or thought of things to distract the mind. After being a former student of the Sith, he learned how to play cards in his head counting the total figures, counted star systems in his head, tried to figure out problems with a ship's engines, and anything else similar....all this was done simply to prevent a Force user from dominating one's mind during combat. It explains why Kreia referred Atton as a "fool" on many conversations....because she could not read his inner thoughts, fears,etc...all Kreia could do was read counting from Atton's mind, his surface thoughts. It frustrated her.
which led me to have better duels when confronting Darth Scion and Darth Trayus on Malachor V. On my first try against these two, i noticed i couldn't breach their will, saves and was getting choked easily. Mind you, i played as a LS to see how i could fair fighting in that alignment with defensive powers against the Sith Lords' full offensive arsenal.
and then i went back to the saved part just prior to going to back to Dantooine to meet the remaining Jedi Counsel after Onderon is saved. Aboard the Hawk, he teaches this as you talk to him in the cockpit. It increases your own will and saves, iirc and fortifies your character from being breached so easily and instead destroys your opponents' saves and will.
I thought that kreia was able to read atton when they were at the academy with atris and the handmaidens. It took a longer time then she thought because of the training atton did but eventually found out what he had done in his past and then he colapses in the cell. He is considered a fool because of his wise cracks and antics are generally round about and silly. Kreia is more of a manipulator and gets things done immediately. Much like a leader of the sith and also she cannot manipulate atton as easy as other people perhaps is why she considers him a fool or maybe that he turnt from away from what he had done chasing off some new way of living and such to play the fool and turn a blind eye to his past instead of embracing it.
We can all thank Atton for the birth of the empire in Episode 3 lol
what? the sith empire?
Grandpa of Han Solo
More like *Ancestor to Han Solo. ;P
whatever.
Darth Revan you guys have to excuse Darth Revan, he obviously had memory issues
+Kashif Khan that's not even revan in his pic. It's a Sith warrior from those cinematic trailers of SW:TOR. Guy clearly has issues
Leo no it's Revan
yeah, I ♥ how he says "laughing at me!" through his teeth. xD
They need to make a KOTOR movie. With Paul Rudd as Atton.
Yeah I see what you mean, they do look fairly similar actually.
that would actually prolly be awesome
Nope, they need to make it a Netflix series. A movie, even a trilogy, wouldn't do it justice
Holy shit yeah!
11 years later. this pops up in my suggestions. lol
My headcannon is that Atton is the great x500 grandfather of Obi Wan, guess he had to get his flirting and sassiness from somewhere.
That or Star Wars is very sassy
Oh good lord, I've just imagined that, Kotor in Mass Effect technology... with Dragon Age companion interaction... I've just melted *.*
We can always dream....
Atton
Very different character. Carth is not as likable as Atton but still very interesting. Carth is more a sad one, a tragic one.
Carth sucks.
There, I said it
@@davidminor4213 I like Carth but I really wish his character was more than "family is dead, I've trust issues, will still die defending the republic"
It specially frustrates me how even if you make his own son stop hating on him, Carth still will be against you if you go towards the dark side.
@@iug5672 I used to like him until I played as a girl
I like Carth. He is actually a VERY well constructed character and is basically a complete deconstruction of typical BioWare characters who are usually head over heels for the player the moment they meet them. He is like a breath of fresh air. For the first part of the game, he lets you know right off the bat that he doesn't trust you and he is only working with you because you are the only "ally" he has at the moment. The mission comes first. It's sad that BioWare steered away from this type of character after KOTOR.
"I know your crushed" lol i love when he says that
Yeah, I even called Kreia good looking at one point.
Ok WOW. I just laughed for 5 minutes and 44 seconds STRAIGHT. Atton is definitely one of my fav Star Wars characters of ALL TIME
Are you an angel? The developers clearly did not like the prequels.
They didn't like Star Wars as a whole. actually.
FIMO Studios true
@@numberl6 how doesn't obsidian not like star wars? they read tons of the expanded universe to create KOTOR 2 and ended up creating one of the best stories and games in star wars.
Who did back then?
I think they liked Star Wars. Some people show love for a series or franchise by satirizing and deconstructing the hell out of it. You know, going into depth on its ideas and pondering them enough to create a whole new story based on that take on them. Of course, people also do that with things they dislike. It's tricky, but I still feel like it came from a place of love and respect here.
Awesome video! Hilarious ending! I loved that "I'm as Atton as Atton will ever be!"
"Also, in private, we will be mercifully free from the opinions of imbeciles and fools." -LOL
"Fool."
"Schutta."-ROFL
Another awesome video! Atton is no Carth, but he is hilarious, haha. That "it's distracting... for the droids" line is one of my favorites ever. Too funny!
I didn't realise the voice actor for The Disciple was Cullen from Dragon Age!
holy shit your right
Greg Ellis
Oh yeah I remembered him here first so when I played Dragon Age I was like “holy crap it’s the disciple” lol
The disciple should hate force users then.
Especially the ones that use blood.
Beat the game at least two times and, without deleting the save data from those playthroughs, start another game and get to Atton. He'll say that instead of what he normally says.
12 years later and this is still my favorite video of all time
This is uploaded on my birthday!!!!! Atton is so cute and badassed!
you know, i cant stop watching this video, thx for postiong it! :)
XD Atton is like, " schutta' hutt equivalent for bitch
Zachery Rancano It's Twi'lek, not Hutt.
Kitari oh okay thanks
Kitari language is huttese
***** Huttese is the native languaje of the Hutts. But "Schutta" is an insult used by the Twi'lek.
+Kitari I also believe I heard somewhere that Schutta doesn't mean bitch, it's actually the name of a species of weasel-like creature from the Twi'lek homeworld.
Nah, the best one when they got hit... the second time when piloting a shuttle over Telos: "You've gotta be kiddin me! It's not my fault!" :D
Or another, when Disciple said something about Atton not washing regulary, and Atton was like: "I bet you think about it the whole day." LOL
Also, one of Bao-Dur's very awesome too: when the gang ;) met Zhug bros outside Hawk:
Atton: So which want do you want?
Bao-Dur: I take the stupid one, that one who failed to catch the opportunity to kill us blah blah
OR (LOL):
Sion: Soooo I get the fool.
Atton: Funny, I was think the same thing (hehehehehhe).
As dark side, when you kill someone innocent, unarmed and helpless completely unprovoked - and Attons response is really casual and along the lines of: "yeah, good thing we got the drop on the guy before he could tell on us" or something really stupid and redundant like that. I really like dark side Atton, kek
Which Atton is more popular, light or dark side one?
@@vladimir.mojovic6728 Probably light side. I could be wrong though.
my favorite atton line is between atton and mira
mira: you see atton your an idiot and you dont shower enough and you scratch your "equipment" when no one is looking
I think I'm seriously becoming an Atton fan-girl.
Thank you for posting this!
"I'll call you if I need someone useless." Haha, Atton is the best character ever
"I hope some poor kid doesnt start using it."
he broke the fourth wall! xD
Jesus Christ nine years ago
great vid. Great to have all the lines in one place.
Yeah, for some reason the way he says "circus" just cracks me up! xD
This is a great video. You're the best thing to happen since Shem's videos.
You rock tehPrincessJ :rock:
THANK YOU THIS IS HILARIOUS :D
I love the ending between Mira and Atton!! Thats funny! Right now I am playing that and all he keeps doing is arguning with Mical! its FUNNY! But he is really sarcastic!
Great video
"distracting, for the droids i mean"...you totally messed that excuse up XD
hahaha that's freakin' awesome!
i've never heard the stuff at the end...
i guess i gotta play through light side and actually listen to wat mira and mical have to say
Atton owns even more on the dark side though
Awesome lol!
"Yeah! Me too Il go to my chambers"
This character maked me laugh so much when I played.
Very good! *applause given*
Thank you, this was great.
My favorite,".... I'll let you know when I need someone useless."
Good stuff! KOTOR was the game that started it all for me. I love the mods!
The red lightsaber joke is my favorite.
I can imagine Meetra and ugly Sion having a party together lol.
XD Atton, I begin to love that guy !
4:53 Pretty much why this game is so fucking great.
The end was awesome!
love the last bit! 'Did you take all day to make up that joke?? Maybe you and Bao-Dur should start a circus'
I like how he says "Laughing at us... Laughing at me" through his teeth
hahahahaah the ending made my laugh my butt off! xD wait...that was the whole video that made me do that. Oh Atton...where would the world be without you and your hot face and hilarious jokes?
I. LOVE. THIS. VIDEO.
i love Atton he has sense of humour...i was like wanna laugh it out while hearing to his quotes!!!
That last bit was pure gold.
Lol, thanks for posting, I haven't played the game in ages and it's great to see my favorite Attonisms.
IG
10/10 video for a 10/10 character
VERY GOOOOOOOD!
I LOVED this game and Atton Rand was a great comic relief element. This along with many other characters in KOTOR 2 made it one of the richest games I played.
Strange...this video emits a great powerful stench.
Best line. :)
Haha this was brilliant lol, I have never seen half that Dialog Atton says, I always liked the 1st KOTOR more tho. Awesome Vid all the same =D
Attons always been my favorite companion for a reason
YEEES, A GREAT POWERFUL STENCH~
I like how you had Atton and Handmaiden going head-to-head
"yes, a great powerful stench." hahaha!
that second one at 0:16 is one of my favorites, too..and 4:07
lol he's pressing imaginary buttons at 0:38
nice vid, i'm an Atton fangirl, too! He's awesome! Although i also really, really like Carth..
a great powerful stench xD, i've NEVER heard it, tho i played the restored content mod
Just run only Atton and Visas on Korriban. No one else says anything meaningful, anyway
Atton- "Well, good thing it's not a trap!"
Mical- "No, Atton i think it may be a trap"
and that is why Atton will always be welcome in my crew ^.^ WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
hey great video....this is probably my favorite star wars game....atton is my favorite character too
GREAT VIDEO, fave and 5/5! BUt I must say you forgot my fave atton line. How he describes sion:
Sleeps with viroblades!
lol
Atton more than compensates for his lack of heroism with wit. Awesome vid. xD
Love it!
thanks for the vid it mustt have taken a long time
lol excellent choice with yes, a great powerful stench line i laughed my head off when i heard that
Awesome compilation tehPrincessJ!
Fav:
"Why don't you go sit on a rocket" xD
Great video!
Thank you, Shem :)
Omfg Im laughing out so loud, these characters and their dialogues are so damn well written, god!!.
Omg I regret so badly playing this game as a male character ffs rofl
damn i played this so long ago i never got much of the humor in this game because i was like 10 and didnt really understand alot lmao xD
the disciple and Boa-Dur starting a circus?
EPIC
"Yeeeees, a great powerfull stench."
LMAO!!! dat was awesome nicely done...XD
Attons one of my favorite video game characters.
yeaaaah a great powerful STENCH!
The initial "Dammit!" cemented him as my favorite character in my party. I've not had that "are you an angel?" line before.
You unlock that particular line of dialogue after you've beaten the game at least twice. There's also a secret line with the Handmaiden where she recites Echani poetry.
One of my favorites for sure was when he was talking about T3-M4 joyriding through the galaxy. It produced such a funny picture in my head.
Picture this, the Ebon Hawk spiraling out of the docking bay at a high rate of speed, narrowly missing two patrol cruisers and purposely smashing into a satellite dish on top of a house.
The patrols begin to give chase and the camera switches to inside the cockpit to find T3 making a sound similar to R2D2 when he gets shot. You know, that "WHOOOOOOO!".
lmfao, just love the end of the video
Yes, the great powerful a scent!
Are you an angel? lmao that line is too priceless. anakin just got pwned in the face.
