Anakin's Deleted Scene during Palpatine vs Mace Duel Explained
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- In Star Wars Revenge of the Sith, there was the original concept of Anakin Skywalker being present during Palpatine's fight with the Jedi and Mace Windu, where he offers his blue lightsaber to Sidious. It was later deleted and changed to Anakin showing up when he did, to eventually turn into Darth Vader before Order 66...however before this, the concept was there and filmed to have him walk over Kit Fisto, Agen Kolar and Saesee Tin, the Jedi Masters that Palpatine defeated so effortlessly.
In the novel, it's also different, where Anakin shows up to walk over the bodies and view the speed of Mace and Palpatine as they dance in colors of red and purple, however he is NOT present during the initial arrest and does not throw his lightsaber to Palpatine to use.

*Anakin walks in*
Mace: "You're right about Palpatine, I grant you the rank of Master"
Anakin: "Alright, thank You" *Proceeds to help Mace kill Palpatine*
Palpatine: "noooooooooooo"
Mace Windu: if you help me defeat Palpatine I'll grant you the rank of Master...
Anakin Skywalker: Sold.
Sheev: Shit!
DIRECTED BY GEORGE LUCAS.
Say what you will about the prequels but you have to admit the character of palpatine was nailed by George and Ian
I'll say they were amazing!
I thought those movies were really good, even my dad who never watched star wars liked it
The story told in the prequels is great. The main characters were perfect. The problems were the dialogue, some of the secondary characters, and the fight scenes, apart from light saber duels, were boring.
@@moloko5 Yep i totally agree
Prequels > everything else
Anakin: he must stand trail
Mace: he is too dangerous to be alive
Anakin: he must live
Mace: what about dooku
Anakin: ...
This needs more likes.
Palpatine: he was too dangerous to be left alive...
Mace: Exactly what I thought. The oppression of the Sith will never return. You have lost.
Palpatine: No! No, now you will die! (zaps Mace Windu) He's a traitor!
Mace: (deflects the lightning) HE... is the traitor!
Palpatine: (gets deformed) I have the power to save the one you love. YOU MUST CHOOOOOOOOSE!
Mace: Don't listen to him, Anakin!
Anakin: I'm the one who has to kill him. I am the Chosen One! (kills Palpatine) It's over Master.
Mace: You are on this Council. We grant you the rank of Master.
Anakin: No way!
Mike Or I just read that in all the voices and it was so satisfying 😂😂😂

I wish there was a deleted scene where I was granted the rank of master.
That will never happen
Maybe if you stayed in the council chambers like what Mace Windu said you would have.
Not today

The fact that Ian never get an oscar for Palpatine its just crazy...
Star Wars doesn't get oscars because of George Lucas bad relationship with the academy.

:Star Wars Theory “NANI!?”
It actually wasn't George's idea to have Anakin to be there. I just showed up on the set one day and accidentally cut Samuel's hand. Turns out, George was filming the whole time..
I hate these memes
Brackzy Too bad.
I hate it when does that...
😂😂😂
not again ! Obi-Wan is gonna kill me
Ian mcdiarmid is the definitely the most talented in Star Wars In my opinion
Ewan? Alec Guinness? Liam Neeson?
Has to be Ewan McGregor for me. But that doesn't take away at all from Ian McDiarmids acting, he's fantastic.
austin bevis they are great yes but I feel Ian mcdiarmid really embodies palpatine amazingly not to say the other actors don’t I just feel Ian has that little bit more talent, expression and quality about him.
Him and Luke and Ewan
I totally agree! Ian McDermott is the classic actor of the prequels as Our beloved late Sir Alec Giuness was for the originals. Both have classical training and changes the whole of the film. Disney and Lucas were so fortunate to have him available. There were many great actors that were forced to decline due to prior commitments. He just oozes "class"!
“Pulls each string with charming, yet evil precision.” ~ Hayden
Anakin: "Hey, Chancellor! I have come here to warn you about...It's me or I am just seeing right now Kit Fisto's smiling decapited head?"
what really happened in that scene:
*anakin appears*
Anakin:what is going on here?
Lucas: hum, hayden...it'not your time to appear
Hayden:Oh shit, sry my bad
Damn we’re in the year 2020 and we are still getting new deleted scenes from revenge of the sith till this day
And yet we are probably gunna have to wait another 20yr for ep 9 deleted scenes lmao
thisis on the special edition dvd -deleted scenes from years back so its not new bro
maybe one day, the 4h cut

Rvenege of the Sith 15 years later still the ultimate Star Wars experience
As much as star wars brings me joy it causes me so much pain knowing how much great content has been cut.
Qui-Gon is the father figure Anakin should have had
Palpatine was the father figure Anakin ended up with
I still think Palpatine could be Skywalker's actual father. They have all but said it for canon. Can hope anyway.
@@gbrown932 quite an interesting premise indeed
@@gbrown932 I thought that was the point of the discussion at the theater. But then the sequels make Rey his descendant? With Ben being her love interest? Yeah, I don’t get the sequels.
@@alexisjankowski3281 disney didn't put that much thought into it.
@@alexisjankowski3281 Palpatine was a manipulator Qui Gon Jin should have been his Father figure. Heck I don't mind if he was his Father.
The choice anakin makes would be undermined if he tossed sideous his lightsaber and watched, because he would've already made his mind.
What happened with Kenobi, General Grievous?
Hello There
@@obi-wankenobi700 KENOBIIIIIIIII
do you want a new lightsaber for your collection ?
@@obi-wankenobi700 I recently played COD BO1 zombies and someone said "hello there" in the lobby and I immediately responde with "General Kenobi" we were both loved it. None Star Wars fans never get it but I can´t help responding with that when people say "hello there" but this was the first time someone actually got it.
General Grievous' theme: appears at the beginning of Palpatine's featurette.
The Emperor's theme: Am I a joke to you?
I love how Hayden in the interviews basically looks like Anakin from TCW.
Holy crap I just realized that
There is another deleted scene in this behind the scenes featurette, and it takes place right after Anakin sees Obi-Wan off to Utapau. Anakin goes to see Palpatine, who believes Obi-Wan might not be able to defeat Grievous because he’s “seeing a female Senator.” This flares up Anakin’s jealousy, and it makes sense why Anakin goes from appreciating his mentor/friend to becoming suspicious of him when Padme says Obi-Wan visited her. Then it makes even more sense why Anakin says to Obi-Wan “YOU TURNED HER AGAINST ME!!” on Mustafar.
Ian Mcdiarmid did such an amazing job. Even in the Sequels where his character shouldn't have been there and had no explanation for any of the things he did, Ian knocked it out of the park.
Dang last time I was this early the old republic was still new
It was before yoda was even born
Same
Same
Did that take awhile for you to think of?
No it just popped into my head
This is possible, as we seen in the Anakin vs Obi Wan fight, there are scenes (when fighting on the table) that they've swapped lightsabers, so it was intended that there be a switch in that fight too.
Though there might be an alternative explanation as to why Palpatine has Anakin's hilt, and I think it is to do with the CGI going on in the Mace vs Palpatine fight. It seems like there are points in that fight where Palpatine is pure CGI, and when you then think of another CGI character in a lightsaber duel in this film Grievous they have something in common. They both have Anakin's lightsaber hilt, in fact Grievous has both Anakin's and Obi Wan's Lightsaber hilts, and I wonder if it is because they only had a small collection of CGI lightsaber models, and had to keep repeating the same models over and over to save cost.
I’ve pointed the whole grevious thing out myself and tbh I think with grevious it was just whatever lightsabers they had to hand that they scanned in but I think in the case of Anakin and Obi it was just a genuine mistake that they forgot to rectify like Ewan just happened to be holding Hayden’s lightsaber from a previous take and that was the best take for that moment or something yet another take with Ewan’s lightsaber was better right after and they just cut it that way? I dunno I’m just speaking crap at this point
@@DarthSherm94 Another interesting thing to note about Grievous, the other two Lightsabers he has are the borrowed hilts Anakin and Obi Wan had on Geonosis in Episode 2.
hurmet I’ve noticed that myself previously as well I just didn’t see the point of mentioning those ones 😂 people only wanna know about the legit ones not the borrowed ones 😁
I was gonna say the same thing, but you said it way better than i could've. 100% right my man
The problem is the shots we see palpatine with anakin's lightsaber is not CGi, it's actually shot footage with a camera.
I also think that not being able to have a CG model of Palpatines lightsaber is unlikely considering the scope and budget of the VFX department, adding in palpatines actual lightsaber to a fight rather than some other random model would be no trouble at all.
Me: Just now sees clip from 15 years ago
Me: What? This is outrageous. It's unfair!
Meanwhile at Disney: Lets have Palpatine back, just cause.
Fans: How is sidious back?
Disney: We have no idea.
I’m so sick of everyone hating Palpatine coming back, there was a small comic series that focused on Palpatine coming back as a clone, where he was so powerful with the dark side he could literally move his soul from the underworld into a clone body, Luke discovers he’s back and tries to defeat him and fails, he becomes Palpatine’s apprentice so he can master the Dark Side and learn enough to eventually destroy him. I mean the idea alone is badass, Luke becoming his apprentice and becoming a master of both Light and Dark to destroy Palpatine forever...
Stop saying Disney has no idea, just look at the source material for his return and it’s easily explained there
EyeArDum Disney literally has no idea where they were going with that lol
EyeArDum loved that he came back. Was it explained in a clear/cool way? No
CB 1014 this is an opinion I can respect
I love looking at deleted scenes
@G 84 lol
@G 84 i am not creative enough to think of a good name
@G 84 haha i know right
I think the most important reason why this scene was changed was because it makes the Emperor look like much more of a victim. In the cut we got, Anakin walks in to see Mace threatening Palpatine with his lightsaber, giving the impression that the Emperor is defenseless. It makes Anakin have more sympathy for Palpatine and easier to be swayed rather than if he just walked in and saw an intense battle.
I've been watching your channel since the beginning of 2018 but didn't have a RUclips account until now. I am so happy to finally be able to voice my love for this channel. THANK YOU!!
How George Lucas was always like to himself. "You must choose!"
Thank you for getting back in to this content! I've been waiting for them to start back up!
Last time I was this early, PS5s were still in stock.
This disappointed me but I appreciate it at the same time
i used my break between school calls to watch this :)
You're strong and wise and we're very proud of you
Its my lunch break.
Me too!!!
Dude get better I’m in class haha
I’m just messing with you bro
I love that you cover so much of the prequels! Love to see more content on palpatine because he is such a wonderful feeling. I really enjoy your deleted scene series with the prequels. I wish that George Lucas could release an extended edition of Star Wars like Lord of the rings did.
I love that scene in the ROTS novel when mace fights palps. It's a great way to illustrate Anakin choosing his path, and how surprising it was that mace was able to keep up with palp. Then when Anakin had that "you just choose moment" the "weakness" of the Jedi was shown as mace actually waited to let him choose while papa palp was like "k force lightening time"
so early theres no youngling jokes
I was killing yuenglings while watching this video.
In the novelization, I seem to recall that Palpatine had hidden his lightsaber inside of a statue made of some really dense material. Neurodium(?)
During the fight, Windu had disarmed Palpatine of his lightsaber, and THAT is when he asked Anakin for help.
BTW, I feel Anakin went over the cliff, past the point of no return, when he disobeyed Master Windu and left the Jedi Council chambers.
He’s too dangerous to be kept alive
He must stand trial

Outstanding. I watched this video so many times, but I was so focused on Ian and what was being said, I didn’t see Hayden behind him. Bravo sir.
This is epic. 😊
Some parts had me cracking up. 🤣
Samuel Jackson "Sometimes he would not be looking, and I whacked him." 👏🏼🤣😂
Palps looks at samuel: Do it!
I like the version that we got Except, I would have preferred to, at least, see Anakin's reaction to the bodies of dead jsedi on the floor of Palpatine's office. I think that would have given more tension and weight to the decision that Anakin had to make.
I actually would love to see that deleted scene.
It has always amazed me how Anakin just happens to show up right whenever Mace is about to kill Palpatine. LOL.
When Theory uploads at the time were i , in Germany, can watch it at a normal time.
A surprise to be sure , but a welcome one
The backround music in your vids is amazing!
You’re the best theory!! Thanks for the awesome vid!!!!!!
IM TOO WEAK
Ian did a good job being sidious. He really is the Senate!!
Hey theory. Something I just saw in the scene is when palps is electrocuting mace, anakin has his saber in hand all of a sudden when it wasn't just there. Never see him draw it from hilt. And then when he slices maces hand off it appears he draws it again from his hilt. Good evidence of reshoots and editing and adds weight to it actually being shot differently
Wow, I've watched this special feature on the ROTS dvd since it came out and never noticed that. Great catch.
It also explains why Palpatine is wielding Anakin's lightsaber hilt with a red blade in a few shots. They had filmed the "Anakin Tosses His Lightsaber" version of the fight before they decided to go with what we see in the film.
They have that in the DVD holy shit I need to get it
@@rigobertomartinez2461 - Oh yeah it's from the original dvd release of ROTS back in 2005.

Great topic. There's pictures online too of Anakin standing next to Palpatine in the chair when the Jedi come to arrest him. In fact, Hasbro's first wave of ROTS 3.75 figures had a palpatine with a blue Anakin lightsaber. I happened to get one of those before they updated it with a red lightsaber.
This is Outrageous!
Its unjust!

Jack Snowden I agree he played the act so perfectly. The deleted scene looked cool. But I liked how anakin had seconds to decide Padme or Jedi. And of course he chooses Padme over the Jedi Order
Jack Snowden Ok my good friend I have to go and Drive my car to see how it feels after I fixed the radiator problem May the force be with you always
If Mace and Palpatine were fighting at that speed, it makes sense why Qui Gon tells Anakin "You need to have Jedi reflexes to be a pod racer."
Damn that out the windu

I've been wanting to see the cut scenes from Mustafar - like Anakin killing Wat Tambor (only photos exist).
What did it look like happened to Tambor? I was always curious as to what Vader did to him.

I still remember when I first saw episode 3 in the theater I was 13 in 2005 and already a huge Star Wars fan for about 10 years. And I as a 13 year old boy cried from the moment Anakin turns and starts crying after taking off Mace Windu's hand because I could understand why he turned to the dark side, I could feel his struggle to resist this path, I saw myself in his shoes and tears ran down my checks until the credits especially when he had his falling out with Padme and Obi-Wan I was transfixed and the experience sticks with me to this day and occasionally when I watch it again I'll get a little teary eyed but more than anything else I'm transported back to that theater and I relive that experience that had such an impact on me... I am still a huge Star Wars fan, things like this excite me! ... The Disney Sequel Trilogy sucks it doesn't make me feel anything but disgust! ... Oh what more wonderful experiences I might have had but I'll always love the first 6 and assorted spinoffs if I deem them good too...
Palpatine: *Fakes American accent*
Ewan McGregor: *Fakes Tone of voice* (he has British accent, but it sounds different)
Anakin: *AAAHAHHAHHHHH*
Hey man I cannot express enough how much I love your videos I agree with almost all of your opinions on the universe, every time a star wars related video pops up in my feed from another RUclipsr I am so unsatisfied and try to find a video of the same topic on your channel. Please please please keep up the awesome work bro you always push out the best content and I hope I don't run out of videos of yours to watch any time soon haha can't even word how hectic this shit is lol I don't have any mates that are at my level of love for the franchise and you seem to exceed it!!😍
INJUSTICE GIVE US ANAKIN AND VADERS MORE SCENES!!!!!
Christopher Flood the whole trilogy is about the skywalker trilogy but yet we get nothing about Vader... agreed.
Other then Luke vs Vader and obi wan be Vader but that’s just not enough.
Christopher Flood we need to see some fights that are epic like obi wan vs anakin.
If they put more Jedi in Empire, we would have seen Vader have a badass moment, but Empire is still the best.
@@ReformedDeluge If you look closely at the love scene with Han and Leia, maybe you would appreciate Empire more.
"Anakin, lend me your weapon so I may defend myself"

I think I've watched episode III more than any of the movies.
One thing I always wished is he became Vader in the beginning of the movie and we got to see more of order 66 being played out with Vader in the actual suit
Or have it split into 2 movies
I really like the part of Anakin watching the master level fight at super speed, but I wouldn't have him throw his lightsaber to palpatine, first because I also like that "you have to choose" moment, it shows how Anakin hadn't decided yet which destiny he was about to manifest according to the force, meaning he still had the chance to be conscious of whatever he did, would change everything, it wasn't too late to choose a different path. Also, logically speaking, if Anakin only was able to percieve a blur of red and purple, I doubt he would be able to throw his lightsaber to palpatine, it may be in the book, but it feels unrealistic, if he cant percieve, even less do something about it. I really liked this curious data you shared with us, nice work!
the bonus discs are legendary!!!!
6:25 The Emperor being lint rolled is the best thing.
5:57 the scene
Thanks you.
Just wanted to say that I love your Cobra Kai cap :D
Rip that scene looks sick as
as..? (hangs on the edge of seat) Don't keep me in suspense 😮
In Dragon Ball Z as Yamcha was fighting a Siebermen, Piccolo was explaining to Gohan about the speed that Yamcha and the Sierbermen were fighting at. Piccolo says your not looking for them but the light thier bodies give off. Just like what you were saying about the speed at which Sidious and Windu was fighting. When Anakin was watching it was a blur of colors coming from thier clothes.
Proof that at a time, the humans were stronger than a Saiyan. And we must remember, Yamcha was killing that fight until he apparently defeated it... and then it pulled that sneak attack. Yamcha would've won that fight, though. It's just he turned away at a bad time, so it became a tie. Both lost.
It kinda makes sense that power levels - or rather Midichlorian levels - would exist in Star Wars like they do in Dragon Ball. As explained, it would've been awesome to see how fast Mace and Palpatine were fighting according to the book. The way their lightsabers were just streaks of power, all of it. And Anakin being unable to read them due to how he had yet to tap into his full potential, unlike Mace and Palpatine.
