By the way, there IS still a way to watch the original Star Wars films without the bad edits: the 2006 DVD releases. They contain the Special Editions and the original cuts as bonus features. They are literally the only way to watch these now. Another victory for DVDs.
@@jorgerosado2087 please never spend $70-100 on a Star Wars vhs, you can find the entire set for like $10 and individual ones for like 25 cents. People try to inflate vhs prices but none are actually worth that much and should never under any circumstance be bought for that price
I'm already obsessed with this video. I remember this period of time so very clearly. Going to see the special edition re-release in theaters was one of the last things I did with my dad before he died and I'm so happy.
The sticky cup topper is probably leaking plasticizer. Rubbing it with baking soda will make it not sticky anymore, but I'm pretty sure that one in particular actually IS toxic now.
my one memory of being a Star Wars kid is playing with glowing lightsabers in a friend's dark basement and I cut my foot deep on something sharp because the lights were turned off to be in his words "more realistic" and it was a mess down there
I heard a rumor that by re-editing the movies into the special editions, George Lucas didn't have to pay his ex-wife anymore as the edits were significant enough to be considered a new cut that she wouldn't be credited for.
Fun story about how Kenner got the toy rights for Star Wars. Originally, the rights were offered to Mego first. As far as toys go, Mego basically owned the 70s with several successful toy lines (Worlds Greatest Superheroes, Planet of the Apes, Star Trek). They just knew Star Wars was going to be a stinker, so they turned down the deal and Kenner got them and was basically printing money in the late 70s and early 80s
just like what people tried doing with the Wii U when its service was shut down, then suddenly EVERYONE crawled from the woodworks saying "the wii u was always good ya'll just haters" when its a complete lie and there is a decade of evidence proving it always sucked unless you modded it for emulation.
I agree that there's bad revisionism for I and II, but honestly I don't remember people hate III at the time it came out. Or at least not as much as the other 2.
@@HughAverageHomoMan nah the Wii U wasn't bad at all, it just had atrocious marketing (and an unfortunate first two years). So many classic games came from that system like Mario Kart 8, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, Bayonetta 2, Mario 3D World, Pokken Tournament, Pikmin 3, just to name a few. It also was a considerable power jump compared to the Wii and even Switch which were barely stronger than their prior consoles, hell some games like Smash 4 look better than the sequel Ultimate. The modding only enhanced the console after it's lifespan, not just finally giving it value.
About a year ago I found one of those comm chips, the C-3PO one, lying on the ground at a park. It looked nearly pristine, despite being 20+ years old with virtually no dirt or scratches. I’m convinced a small tear in spacetime opened when a child from 1996 dropped their beloved C-3PO comm chip, sealing it away into the future, just for it to fall into my trash loving hoarder hands. A gift from Fate? The Universe? God? Its true origin will never be known.
My dad had an N64 with a copy of Rogue Squadron and he was so addicted to it that my mom made him throw it away because she thought he wouldn't be able to do anything properly around the house
Every time I watch one of your videos I just realize we're the same person somehow. The Creatures, YFM, the nuerodivergence, standing behind a cars exhaust, creepypasta interest.... just I have never had a unique moment in my life
You can’t watch the original trilogy as it was released in theaters because even VHS and DVD releases have some minor mixing changes, but if you want it without all of George Lucas’s later changes, you can find old VHS tapes and old DVDs and there’s a couple projects that sought to re-create them as close to theatrical release as they could.
Awesome video!! Is there anyway next year you could go “The OTHER Year Star Wars got Popular Again” and recount Episode VII The Force Awakens hype, toys, and media? You already know enough sequel trilogy lines to justify it! Either way I’ll watch whatever you upload.
Just some information for you: I'm a 32 year old straight black woman & I watched the whole vid lol. I woke up this morning & it was an hour in. When I got to work, I did indeed start the vid over & listened while I worked. Then finished the rest when I got home. Enjoyed all the chaos & info! 👍🏼
I just realized this video is over 5 and a half hours. The prequel times were different it was honestly intoxicating and basically impossible to not get excited even though the movies ranged from really mediocre to bad
I'm about to the make it to the halfway point of the video and the end of the Episode 1: Racer section, but I just have have to say that the number of references being said is incredible
i love this video bro it was genuinely really enjoyable and i had a nice time but i feel like i need a tv tropes esque list of the media youve referenced because sometimes i recognize it and other times its nothing but the rambling of a mad man
Watching through this when I can, but have you thought about spreading out the longer segments as highlights over the whole video? Like it would have been pretty cool if you were like, "okay this book is done, here's another part of my full Ep1 Racer playthrough".
I can’t believe Qui Gon murdered a spider. Maybe he was a Sith lord all along. Wish they had lightsaber shanks in the movies, that would be so sick, man
I don't know how you mentally take making this long and high-quality videos and barely getting the appreciation that people who do a fraction of the effort get
I’ll be “that guy” and say that most of the special edition changes you talked about are actually from the later 2011 bluray. The Emperor hologram, anakins eyebrows, the version of the ANH Jabba scene you showed were not in the special edition in 97. Macklunky didn’t show up until Disney+ 4K. Also the Episode 1 trailer was shown on Entertainment Tonight, so if you taped it, you could watch it
~ 3:53:19 The game was a disk image, an .iso file? Those need to be 'mounted' on another drive to access the contents. You could probably mount it on a flash drive or SD card.
We got a dvd box set with the original film releases on it (I assume they were packed with the movie, and a copy of the home movies from the 80s as they were then)
About the special editions: I honestly think no one would give a shit about the changes if George lucas actually gave people a choice instead of forcing them to only have one. (It's kind of like what happened with new coke. No one would've given a shit if they just kept the original coke, but they didn't and so coke suffered.)
I love when people say that Star Wars is dead, not because the sequels are worse than the prequels, but because they put out so much content that isn't good that it just doesn't feel special anymore. While I will say it's not as cool as the 90s and 2000s where we got nothing but a lot of cool stuff from star wars, this has ALWAYS been an issue, especially in the 80s. I don't even need to mention the holiday special, because everything that came out after Return of the Jedi for a couple of years was straight up some of the worst piece of star wars media even to this day. The Ewok movies, the Ewok cartoons, the terrible Droids cartoon (that one's my favorite), I would say that all of this is worse than any of the films released in theaters, yes even the Clone Wars film. Star Wars was always overbloated with endless trash, even when it was unanimously good.
I recall thinking Dash was Han. Dash got included in the films? That feels like an oddly specific and obscure cameo. In the N64 Episode 1 racer, they save Duel of Fates for title screen, pause screen but very faint, and final race. I've been wondering if the alien common language is the same or varies between races. Using "I'ma Jima Pumafa" or however the spacing and spelling is, Mars Quo sounds like a bully stole his toy or he spilled his ice cream, Bullseye Nevoir sounds like he's taunting you, and Neva Kee sounds like they are staring something. Now I am between "Do the Togepi Fire" or "Take a dump on it". As well as "Careful Donkey" or "Take a Dookie"

I like that he gave a warning for the hour of building legos but not the 2 hours of pod racing
three hours almost 💀💀
best 5 hour long star wars video essay that spontaneously derailed into a podracing lets play which then spiraled into mild insanity i've ever seen
I fell asleep and woke up and we were still pod racing. I'd want it no other way.
