The clones are so bizarre. An army of identical men, but each one ended up becoming a unique man, thrust into a war they didn't ask for, but wouldn't exist without.
A war they were created to fight that was rigged from the start by the puppeteers in charge, they were created as part of a lie, must really play on a clones mind. They fought for years for a result that was always going to happen.
I think and thank Dave Felloni and the whole team around him for giving us such a masterpiece that has ever been made. Just look at how they introduced us to every single clone in the series. Put simply, you might see clones like oranges, they all look the same on the outside, but they differ in taste. Every situation, every decision they had to make along the way made them to a unique being.
That is the problem with using Clones for your Army. Without that chip in their brain, I doubt they would have followed Order 66. Honorable Soilders don't frag their Commanders.
@@tuellecke1339 dude there was the expanded universe. Books, video games, tabletop rpgs, and tv shows. There was an entire book series called Star Wars republic commando that focused on the clones and mandalorians. The older versions of both were very different. There is also older stuff like heir to the empire about the real grand admiral thrawn. This is part of why the Star Wars fanbase is splintered. There is so much there.
@@vathsalan1514S2 was already bizarre in some ways... some really cool episodes but Cid betraying them being foreshadowed from the start and the BB just not catching on like absolute dumbasses turned me off
they better give omega a reason to exist outside of aiding the movies of 7 8 9 plot holes because incompetence and stupidity are the laziest plot devices when it comes to further the story
It kinda makes me glad knowing it wasn't the wolfpack who killed plo Koon. I feel like they would have questioned the orders if they were with him, after everything they went through, Plo had genuine respect for them, even cared for them.
@@SOSO_CREPITUS Right so there in a middle of a firefight, chancellor has been taken, and because that one time obi wan said no means he instantly doesn't care🤣
Rex’s character development in the clone wars is truly incredible. He went from believing that a good soldier meant following every order they gave him, to believing that something more could come from acting on your own and doing whats right.❤
It was awesome to see him in rebels too. Seeing him fall into his old habits and faced with serious PTSD really sucked, but seeing him pull through and look past his pain was so relieving
There is nothing more tragic in Star Wars than the story of the clones and you did a phenomenal job of showing that tragedy, but also the clones resolve to carry on being good soldiers
"Gives us clones all a mixed feeling about the war. Many people wish it never happened, but without it we clones... wouldn't exist" one of the most emotional deep, meaningful sentences of the series. earned a sub man. STAR WARS FOREVER!
The Clones were the most tragic characters we've seen in Star Wars history. Originally were meant to fight and defend the Republic, giving their lives for others to live. But then, once Palpatine played a bonus card implementing the Stormtrooper Program, the Clones were all but discarded. Those who were forcefully retired ended up homeless, and what's worse, used as test subjects locked up in prison. The Clones do deserve a better life at this point after the Clone Wars.. It's sad that they all gave up their lives for nothing.
I agree partially. Mostly because there other characters who were equally tragic (Maul, Grievous, Vader, Kenobi, etc). The clones were so highly tragic.
They were all essentially slaves to the Republic and the Empire, no better then the clankers they fought against, as the clankers could not fight their programming, neither could the majority of the Clone Army, bred for one thing only, war and once won, discarded.
Not only that but were forced to turn thier guns on thier friends (Jedi, fellow troopers, civilians ect) as we saw in Bad Batch that's why alot of the clones started rebelling, even with the chips they couldn't rationalize and accept the lies. Star Wars is a tragedy opera with an eventual happy ending, but it was a rough road to get there..
7:42 "He's doing what a soldier does. Sacrificing himself for the lives of others." - Colonel Meebur Gascon I feel like this line and the scene in the Clone Wars (Gregor sacrificing himself) was one of the most powerful scenes in star wars history, accompanied by the absolute astonishing orchestral score.
The clones fought for a cause they thought was right but in reality we’re used as pawns in a plan that cast them aside. You captured the story of the clones perfectly and that cut from Anakin to Vader walking gave me chills
One of the greatest star wars tributes ever. Everything about this video and it's editing is just perfect. Good work brother, the premiere was a real emotional roller coaster. You deserve the name CW Edits more than me after this😭
This video was an absolute masterpiece. It really made me tear up. Gathering clips from various shows to fit in with one another requires time and dedication. Well done. You've got my sub today 🔥
Good soldiers follow orders, great soldiers stick to their guns when it gets tough. I appreciate your service, I don't even care what military you're from. Some soldiers do horrible things in the name of their country, but one has to remember who put them there, who told them they should sign up, or who forced them into signing up. Who spreads the propaganda telling them what they're doing surely couldn't be wrong. So often soldiers are forgotten, discarded, and spit on. Most especially in America. You get sent off to war only to be called a murderer and criminal when you return. Well fuck that. War is complicated, war is hell, and most of all, war is bullshit.
Just like John Rambo what he said in First Blood it wasn't his war but he did what he had to do to win, and survive. Rambo: in the field we have a code of honor you watch my back I watch yours but back in the normal civilian life that means nothing 😢. The world is filled with both good and bad people it's the blind ignorance of those who don't understand things in times of war and only cared about what they think and how they see it especially their own opinions.
Unless those people been there and see it for themselves, they wouldn't be saying much would they. All those soldiers from every country give their lives for their country, freedom, justice and peace. Those on top sitting in their offices like a cheap politician and want to criticize those men & women in service and say they didn't do a good job or no thank you for time or service don't deserve their loyalty or service . It's sad 😔 😢
I grew up on the clone wars, I was born in 2005 and after watching the films my dad showed it to me. It has always been my favorite part of star wars and a big part of my life. This sounds a little cringe but I teared up watching, this was the best edit I've seen.
I get what you mean bro. I’m born in 03 and I remember watching it on Saturday mornings with my little brother when it first premiered. The Clone Wars was our generation’s Star Wars, right in between the prequels and the sequels.
trust me as a 29 year old... that LOVES THE CLONE WARS... manly tears are not cringe especially for our brothers. many wont write saying thecried but if you love star wars. you cant help but feel you want to fight side by side with the other CTs. man shit the army needs people just change the armor to clone armor and the mouth of enlisted that will come shhhhesh....
Let's be real for a moment, ALL active duty, reservists, and veterans can relate to this beyond measure. Star wars carries an eerie truth and ominous tone that's overlooked, but draws inspiration from our own reality. If you know, you know💯. This video was amazing, and well done. Hit right in the feels! Keep up the great work
Completely agree! This hit very deep. However, I would say this only scratched the surface. It gives civilians an idea of how deep the loyalty goes for your brothers and sisters in arms...and how you feel like a used and broken tool after the machine is done with you. Only those who have written a blank check to the US Govt, for up to and including your life, can truly understand. Keep the faith, my brothers and sisters.
This is what star wars should be what it always should have been what it once was. I watched it and got reminded why this universe is such a part of me. I wish the guys who produce Star Wars today could see this and get reminded like me what Star Wars stands for.
It has its fair share of filler episodes but it also has some good stuff. Between it, Rebels, and Tales of the Jedi I’m glad we’re getting to see the legacy of the Clone Wars.
Was/is it really that poorly received in the SW fan base? I started watching the show recently after S3 completed so I could binge it all and I am honestly surprised at how good it is. Yeah, the “monster of the week” style episodes suck sometimes but I felt that because TBB themselves are so likable, it still made them fun to watch and I like how dark the show could get. There was never really truly an episode that made me go “waste of time” Plus Omega is a delight, easily my favorite SW character now.
@@HappyPhantom668 I love seeing Star Wars fans who aren't out for blood at every little thing lmao Yay :D (also I loved TBB, more than Clone Wars, even)
The silent and subtle "good soliders follow orders" as Order 66 came in was haunting. That line will forever hold a cold, dark, and devastating place in Star Wars fans hearts.
It’s… the best clone trooper tribute I’ve ever seen, no words can describe how much has happened throughout the years, I’ll say what everyone else is thinking… For our brothers
“Taking any order without question” RIP the great Pong Krell who was viciously mutineed upon for no reason after they’d been questioning orders for days
" Then perhaps some good has come of it. The Republic couldn't have asked for better soldiers. Nor I for a better friend. " This breaks my heart every time man. Brilliant work.
Just casually dropped the hardest Star Wars Edit ever. Outside of audio issues at some points, this is amazing. I hope you do an update on this once the final season of Bad Batch comes out next year
Thank you!🙏🏼 Regarding the audio issues, if you check my other edits they're not really a thing, and the weird pops weren't originally in this one either but the project in Premiere somehow glitched and I couldn't fix it but still wanted to release.
@@SWFT_editsYeah the only other edit of yours that I noticed it on was the original Vader one before you reuploaded it. Keep up the great work though man! You’re one of the few RUclipsrs who actually knows how to put together clean edits of Star Wars
@@SWFT_edits Had the exact same video concept planned -- but I didn't know how to handle the music. E.g. when Ahsoka is shot at by Rex, the original music played in Clone Wars at that moment I insisted had to be in the final edit. So, I gave up on the idea as unrealistic. But you did a good job, 10/10. Just wish we could use John Williams' music.. even remixes. Did you use any other software besides premiere?
This is the best tribute about Clones I've ever seen. And not just for Clones, but for the entire team who created Clone Wars. I believe George Lucas, Dave Filoni and specially the Voice actor for all all the clones, Dee Bradley Baker would be so proud of this! ❤️
Rewatching it while I was in made it cut so much deeper and made me connect with them so much more. It’s so easy to see them with their boys the exact same way I saw me with my boys. Even if we weren’t identical, there’s still that bond you develop with them. I still talk to guys I deployed with several times regularly.
Each clone started the same, expendable, cannon fodder. But as they grew and developed around each other they grew into individuals that were treated as lesser beings. They were forced into a war high they didn’t ask for but wouldn’t exist without. The clone wars makes it so sad for all the clones who died for nothing and then they were thrown away. Once the empire began they were forgotten. It is truly beautiful.
Star Wars is a Shakespearean space tragedy at its core. It takes notes from each and every tragedy including Romeo and Juliet, MacBeth, Hamlet, Julies Ceaser, and even Othello. Great stuff.
I am not going to lie about this, the scene of the homeless clone from the prequels made me tear up. As a die-hard clone wars fan, I did not remember that scene and it hurt, way too close to home for our current day soldiers. Very very well done, thank you for the hard work and effort you put into this.
And sadly, with the direction Bad Batch is going with what seems to be a systemic either mass execution or mass lobotmizing clones to become death troopers, being a destitute clone on the side of street is one of the better outcomes for them. I wish Rex could have found that clone. Bit by that point, something had clearly happened that lead him to give up the fight and flee with Wolff and Gregor to live a solitary life
I have no words to describe how perfect this is. All the clone tributes I've watched, this is by far the best I've ever seen. Even made me tear up. The clones deserve more.
Incredible job, my friend! I've never seen a better tribute to the Clones for years and you portrayed their brotherhood and comradery so well. Absolute chills!
One of the most heart-rending storylines in all of Star Wars is not about the jedi sith or the war but rather that which we caught glimpses of each time we saw it
It's amazing how even while all the clones share the same voice, you can differentiate who is talking at any moment in this video while having your eyes closed. Big props to the show for doing that, for giving OUR clones the individuality and uniqueness they deserve
This is incredible, seriously. The story of the clones in Star Wars is both beautiful and tragic. Honestly , I've been holding my breath during mando season 3, because any minute we're going to find out what happened to the rest of the clones, and it's going to be hard to watch
I really miss the clones. They were just as much victims as the Jedi were. They were used from the very beginning and no one knew it. I remember the Clones. All of them were heroes in their own way, and if there had been a way. They could have been saved. They could have helped the Republic.
Almost a million views is still not enough. Every Star Wars fan needs to see this. This video has so much passion and emotion wrapped up in it. I can’t imagine a better way to commemorate the clones. This tribute gives me chills every single time I watch it. It is a true masterpiece.
This was Incredible. As Someone who grew up with The Clone Wars, It was My Childhood and this just made Me So Emotional. The Clones were the most Brave And Loyal Soldiers The Republic could have asked for. They were all Identical, and yet each one of them was unique. They Protected their Brothers, And They Gave Everything For The Republic, Only to be cast aside after being programmed to destroy the Generals they served under. I cannot express how much They Mean To Me. Thank You, For making this Wonderful Tribute.
Looks like tomorrows lunch break will consist of watching this video Update during lunch as someone who watched on Cartoon Network and watched countless times again and again on Disney+ you nailed exactly what it was like to be a clone wars fan and the story of the clones
“STOP FIRING! WE’RE FIRING AT OUR OWN MEN” What a wreck that put me in, makes me think that’s what’s going on in the clones head but the chip takes complete control
If someone told me a few years ago that I would care about those nameless drones with the same faces in episode 2 and 3 I would laugh in their face. Now here we are, Rex, Hunter, Howzer and so many damn others I love them all. Thanks for this great tribute to these great characters!
Sometimes i think we are unfair to the more new Star Wars content because this is what we compare it too. This is just so above and beyond in terms of quality (the show as well as the Tribute) that it just aint fair to compare it to anything. But than again it proves how incredibly good Star Wars content can be, it is an ideal to strive for.

That's what makes the clones in rebels so satisfying. They finally got to fight for what they wanted all alon
Just as the droids. So many clankers killed for nothing😔😔
They didn't die for nothing, they paved the way for the glorious Empire
For the empire, actually. But they didn't know that as well as Anakin.
Somehow Dave Filoni took millions of background characters and fashioned them into some of the most beloved characters in the franchise
Wonder if he could do this for a mass effect series
Don't know. ME has it's own vibe, more personal on characters. SW is more adventure rush.
People liked the clones before that kids show ever came out. He basically retconned everything about them to appeal to the children.

I want a clone rebellion so bad, but I know it’ll hurt.
Ya duele bro deker murio😢
Its likely not going to be that widespread or known since clones were allowed to retire like Rex.
@@CyberSonic-V3.0 unless it gets out about what’s going on to clones
Soldiers follow orders
But officially there never was a clone rebellion
"That is what soldiers do. We should be doing more." Now thats some chills
This tribute is just perfect.
Gavee goosebumps more then once, and the order 66 part with the "We are shooting at our own" gave me the chills.
“Taking any order without question” RIP the great Pong Krell who was viciously mutineed upon for no reason after they’d been questioning orders for days
" Then perhaps some good has come of it. The Republic couldn't have asked for better soldiers. Nor I for a better friend. "
This breaks my heart every time man. Brilliant work.
Just casually dropped the hardest Star Wars Edit ever. Outside of audio issues at some points, this is amazing. I hope you do an update on this once the final season of Bad Batch comes out next year
Thank you!🙏🏼
Regarding the audio issues, if you check my other edits they're not really a thing, and the weird pops weren't originally in this one either but the project in Premiere somehow glitched and I couldn't fix it but still wanted to release.
@@SWFT_editsYeah the only other edit of yours that I noticed it on was the original Vader one before you reuploaded it. Keep up the great work though man! You’re one of the few RUclipsrs who actually knows how to put together clean edits of Star Wars
@@SWFT_edits Had the exact same video concept planned -- but I didn't know how to handle the music. E.g. when Ahsoka is shot at by Rex, the original music played in Clone Wars at that moment I insisted had to be in the final edit. So, I gave up on the idea as unrealistic. But you did a good job, 10/10. Just wish we could use John Williams' music.. even remixes. Did you use any other software besides premiere?
@@viIden Audacity and an AI-audio cleaner for some dialogue but besides that just premiere! And thank you!
The clones deserve so much better, this is such a beautifull tribute!
Every choice you made let you to this masterpiece. Thank you in the name of all the clone's fans ! ❤
the best era in all of star wars. FOR THE REPUBLIC!
TCW is arguably the greatest series ever made. Thanks for this amazing tribute
That Tech’s last single shot executing the plan 99, that was one of the best shots I’ve ever seen.
This is the best tribute about Clones I've ever seen. And not just for Clones, but for the entire team who created Clone Wars. I believe George Lucas, Dave Filoni and specially the Voice actor for all all the clones, Dee Bradley Baker would be so proud of this! ❤️
goosebumps throughout the whole thing, this is absolutely incredible
“Clones You May Be, But In The Force Very Different You Are, For Inspiration Look Towards Yourself & Those Around You” -Grandmaster Yoda
I cried the whole video because it shows how unnecessary war is and how many lives it destroys, even in our world just because of one person's plan
Literally one of the best clone tributes I’ve ever seen. Top notch work. For the Republic!
The Clones story is a tragedy and you perfectly captured that here. Perfect tribute for Star Wars day!
Now I see why my friends in the military love the clone wars so much
Rewatching it while I was in made it cut so much deeper and made me connect with them so much more. It’s so easy to see them with their boys the exact same way I saw me with my boys. Even if we weren’t identical, there’s still that bond you develop with them. I still talk to guys I deployed with several times regularly.
Each clone started the same, expendable, cannon fodder. But as they grew and developed around each other they grew into individuals that were treated as lesser beings. They were forced into a war high they didn’t ask for but wouldn’t exist without. The clone wars makes it so sad for all the clones who died for nothing and then they were thrown away. Once the empire began they were forgotten. It is truly beautiful.
Star Wars is a Shakespearean space tragedy at its core. It takes notes from each and every tragedy including Romeo and Juliet, MacBeth, Hamlet, Julies Ceaser, and even Othello. Great stuff.
I am not going to lie about this, the scene of the homeless clone from the prequels made me tear up. As a die-hard clone wars fan, I did not remember that scene and it hurt, way too close to home for our current day soldiers. Very very well done, thank you for the hard work and effort you put into this.
It killed me in Kenobi when I saw that scene ans is still a gut punch
And sadly, with the direction Bad Batch is going with what seems to be a systemic either mass execution or mass lobotmizing clones to become death troopers, being a destitute clone on the side of street is one of the better outcomes for them. I wish Rex could have found that clone. Bit by that point, something had clearly happened that lead him to give up the fight and flee with Wolff and Gregor to live a solitary life
I have no words to describe how perfect this is. All the clone tributes I've watched, this is by far the best I've ever seen. Even made me tear up. The clones deserve more.
The clones were true warriors. Rest in peace! Honestly the clones who died before Order 66 were the lucky ones.
Rex shouting “stop firing! We are shooting at our own men!” Fits so Well with the order 66 scenes. Really hits man
That was a great cut. I think George and Dave would be happy to see people treat their content with such respect.
Incredible job, my friend! I've never seen a better tribute to the Clones for years and you portrayed their brotherhood and comradery so well. Absolute chills!
I have no words... This was beautiful.
This edit... made my skin crawl. This is actually the first edit I cried to and actually felt what those clones felt. They deserved a better fate.
I REALLY hope Dave and the rest of the crew who worked on these shows has seen this. I unironically think it would move Dave to tears.
Insane Edit! Makes you realize the brotherhood the clones shared.
Live to fight another day boys - live to fight another day!
One of the most heart-rending storylines in all of Star Wars is not about the jedi sith or the war but rather that which we caught glimpses of each time we saw it
Man that plo koon line always get me teared up
It's amazing how even while all the clones share the same voice, you can differentiate who is talking at any moment in this video while having your eyes closed. Big props to the show for doing that, for giving OUR clones the individuality and uniqueness they deserve
This why I love the clones so much
The survivors of this incredible army will reach their conclusion in Bad Batch Season 3.... FOR THE REPUBLIC!
This was incredible. The clones will always be my favorite part of Star Wars. Thank you for this tribute!
This is incredible, seriously. The story of the clones in Star Wars is both beautiful and tragic. Honestly , I've been holding my breath during mando season 3, because any minute we're going to find out what happened to the rest of the clones, and it's going to be hard to watch
Spoiler we don’t
The clone wars TV show added so much to the clones, their story is so sad but so intresting
Last shot with 99 was PERFECT
This should be the intro before the next starwars movies in theaters. People should see the legacy of the forgotten Grand Army of the Republic
I’m not even done with the video yet. I haven’t cried like this since Coco.
“He’s doing what a soldier does…” And here it comes again!
This was amazing. It perfectly captured the tragedy of the clones and everything that happened to them.
I really miss the clones. They were just as much victims as the Jedi were. They were used from the very beginning and no one knew it. I remember the Clones. All of them were heroes in their own way, and if there had been a way. They could have been saved. They could have helped the Republic.
Almost a million views is still not enough. Every Star Wars fan needs to see this. This video has so much passion and emotion wrapped up in it. I can’t imagine a better way to commemorate the clones. This tribute gives me chills every single time I watch it. It is a true masterpiece.
why is this not a trailer to a movie or something its amazing!!!!!
Got tears in my eyes watching this. Ever since I've finished the clone wars. Cant explain how many tears this brought.
I love how even though they are clones, we can tell who said which voice lines
This is the best clone edit i have ever seen. Wow amazing. Mark my words this edit will be very popular and will reach a lot of people.
This is one of the best Star Wars animation videos in the world.
This was Incredible. As Someone who grew up with The Clone Wars, It was My Childhood and this just made Me So Emotional.
The Clones were the most Brave And Loyal Soldiers The Republic could have asked for. They were all Identical, and yet each one of them was unique. They Protected their Brothers, And They Gave Everything For The Republic, Only to be cast aside after being programmed to destroy the Generals they served under. I cannot express how much They Mean To Me. Thank You, For making this Wonderful Tribute.
This is literally the greatest tribute I’ve ever seen anyone make! Literal chills
I almost felt it in my soul man this made me cry..
8:32 99 being the last shown clone(before the final shot)...he really was one of the best
8:02 is my favorite moment, all of the emotions built up release with “You made me remember who I am!”
Bro is going to knock our socks off as he always does.
“It’s just a kids show!”
SWFT: Hold my beer.
Looks like tomorrows lunch break will consist of watching this video
Update during lunch as someone who watched on Cartoon Network and watched countless times again and again on Disney+ you nailed exactly what it was like to be a clone wars fan and the story of the clones
These all feel like movie trailers! Good talent
“STOP FIRING! WE’RE FIRING AT OUR OWN MEN”
What a wreck that put me in, makes me think that’s what’s going on in the clones head but the chip takes complete control
Absolutely amazing, really shows the struggle the clones went through. Everything they stood for, forced to turn on
The amount of work that goes into these videos is astonishing
If someone told me a few years ago that I would care about those nameless drones with the same faces in episode 2 and 3 I would laugh in their face. Now here we are, Rex, Hunter, Howzer and so many damn others I love them all. Thanks for this great tribute to these great characters!
Man that was perfection.
So much emotion in so little time...
Sometimes i think we are unfair to the more new Star Wars content because this is what we compare it too. This is just so above and beyond in terms of quality (the show as well as the Tribute) that it just aint fair to compare it to anything. But than again it proves how incredibly good Star Wars content can be, it is an ideal to strive for.
