LEGO Star Wars: Bane of the Sith (HD)

[abelizer]

darth bane does not have a purple lightsaber did u read the novel or where did u get your information?????

[SmeagolStudios]

@abelizer Bane's lightsaber is red in the novels, but it was sort of an off-purple color in the comic books for years before that, and I thought the look was more unique and interesting so I went for that instead. I definitely took some creative liberties throughout this video.

[abelizer]

@SmeagolStudios cool. i haven't read the comics but this was great! and i hope they make a movie. :)

[legodarknight101]

@abelizer What does it matter, the trailer's still freaking awesome!

[JampotAnimations]

This is still my favourite of your videos.

[hellom12345]

hey hey now i thought this was awsome BUT! at 1:08 it should be revan just like it is in the book which this is undoubtably based on

[legoman9299]

you have real talent mr

999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­9999x9999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999999999999999999­999999

stars good job :D

[ackbarfan13]

I watched this video 2 months ago and have spent all this time tracking it down. I finally just went to my video history and went though over 500 videos then about 200 videos carfully just to find it. now that I did I have subscribed and liked. this is one of the BEST VIDEOS EVER!!!

[Lyciia]

Just do the film ! best lego trailer ever :)

[prophetofthefuture]

I bet if this dude made this into a movie he would get 2 million views and 1,999,999 likes

[dumie435]

oh yeah I knew that BrinkSquare is my cousins account I told him to post that because my main channel ran out of characters. And one thing I just noticed, you included sith troopers in your video, the ones with the grey armour, did you purchase them off of the internet or did you make the decal yourself?

[SmeagolStudios]

@dumie435 I designed them myself, but they aren't decals, they were added in photoshop.

[BrinkSquare]

All u hav 2 do is stop ur llama series, help the best FLAs in their vids, and unleash a volley of vids incessantly lik forrest101. Sorry if I wasted ur time, but i believe u can creates da new era. Think of something new;surprise us!

[TimRatner]

@BrinkSquare ... He already ended his Llama videos. They went on for a span of 5 days. And then the series ended. What on earth are you talking about?

[SmeagolStudios]

@BrinkSquare ...but I already finished the llama series over a month ago.

[dumie435]

there are many reasons why an FLA stopped making videos. Maybe they were working on a big film and gave up, maybe family problems, whatever. The point is, only few have claimed their seats in the renewing era, becoming more popular then ever. You, I think, have the pontential to become one of them.

[BrinkSquare]

The last and present era is the "renewing" era, where the seats of fame and glory are still vacant. How can you tell when an era ends? It ends with the ending of the FLAs in the era ceasing to upload videos consistently. The FLAs support each other, but once one FLA falls, the others fall too because they support each other. You, who were a major FLA during the beginning of the second era, contributed to the fall of the second era.

[BrinkSquare]

Sorry i ran out of space from my other account(dumie435). So far, there are three eras. The first animation era was low in quality and smooth animation with choppy transitions. ( sorry I don't have space to name examples an u probably don't want to know either). The second era kicked off with keshen and his high quality and smooth advancements in stopmotion.

[dumie435]

You see, every famous Lego animator ( I will refer them as FLA's because I will use them a lot) belongs to an era of popularity. For example, forrestfire, zackMG, fancypants, you, brickunit, and keshen all "reigned" during the same period of time, therefore created an era of popularity between yourselves, with no other FLA able to surpass your fame. To me, there are three eras, or otherwise periods of time, of fame in the history of Lego animating.

[dumie435]

Awesome. And really, I think you have the potential to become extremely popular among the most famous animators again (not saying that you aren't already are), but recently you've stopped uploading stopmations and started the llamas in Lima series. But, if you carefully examine the most famous Lego animators (forrestfire101, keshen8, xxxfancypantsxxx, pizzamovies, etc.) they are falling behind.

[dumie435]

Oh yea sorry for my ignorance I didn't read the full description and I have a question

Why did you need two layers for the malak ghost scene when you could only use one as seen in ur raw footage?

[SmeagolStudios]

@dumie435 You can see the wall behind him through him 'cause he's a transparent ghost

[dumie435]

Wow this never made any sense to me until I read the book darth bane path of destruction

And I think u mixed up malak and revan with the holocron

And I don't remeber bane cutting off a mando's hand

[SmeagolStudios]

@dumie435 The first thing is addressed in the video description. As far as the mandalorian, Bane had some part in fighting them at times over his long career, but I definitely took a lot of liberties as well.

[LEGOFILMLIMITED]

AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheKeyblade44]

YOU HAVE TO MAKE THIS A SERIES!!!

[JustaYardWorker]

I loove this book series, Darth Bane is the best sith ever, by the way, the miners should have been bald

[MrSurpomp]

Make a movie!

[Babydragon1997]

I'm dying of awesome!

This would make an awesome movie

[Spartandude98]

wow orange and yellow lightsabers at 2:00 ! Sweet!

[pigs1100]

i like 1:19 the best great job :)

[pigs1100]

may i ask how do you make the light sabers light up?



[crazylegoproductions]

I guess it isn't that important, but you left out Des's time as a trooper.

[crazylegoproductions]

Just finished the third book. Epic series.

[BoMb3rMaN1]

like no lie u should work for lucas arts and make this into a movie u r an amazing talented artist sides its said tht ther will b a star wars episode 7 in lik 3 yrs but not of skywalker and his family mayb han solo and his jedi kids idk but if they made this into a movie it wuld b # 1

[Avacnela]

Intriguing >D

[RobloxDarthSpeedy]

What did you use for the computer animation parts?

[legostarwarsguy0515]

1:08 is frigin awsome!

[Legoghost14]

Is that guy at 1:08 Malak?

[SmeagolStudios]

@Legoghost14 in force ghost form, yeah.

[BoMb3rMaN1]

@Legoghost14 no its revan b4 revan died he made a sith holocron to let future sith learn of their ways

[Legoghost14]

@BoMb3rMaN1 ok, you say that even when Smeagol himself said it's Malak?

[BoMb3rMaN1]

@Legoghost14 idk he may b right but i read the book on darth bane its called path of destruction and it tlks about bane finding revan's holocron

[SmeagolStudios]

@BoMb3rMaN1 Yeah, this isn't that scene. The holocron in this trailer isn't identified, but that is the ghost of Malak.

[Legoghost14]

@BoMb3rMaN1 was it called Dynasty of Evil?

[BoMb3rMaN1]

@Legoghost14 the book mayb cuz theres 3 of them sides i recomend reading them if u ever get the chance the first is called path of destruction 2nd is rule of two 3rd dynasty of evil im currently reading the 2nd

[Legoghost14]

@BoMb3rMaN1 well I asked because I have Dynasty of Evil. Is it good?

[BoMb3rMaN1]

@Legoghost14 i do not only the first 2 but im geting it soon

[BoMb3rMaN1]

@Legoghost14 idk i only hav the first 2 but im geting it soon

[zaandarbrow]

I have a question does anyone know what the first history of Star Wars is?

Like our first part of history was dinosaurs.

[SmeagolStudios]

@zaandarbrow I think it goes back a lot further than dinosaurs for us...

There was a proposed book that was going to talk about the origin of humans in the star wars galaxy (coming from earth and sent back through time) but it got canceled.  The Infinite Empire in "Knights of the Old Republic" goes back pretty far though, I don't know of Star Wars history set before that.

[AcceptanceLiving]

@SmeagolStudios The history beginning was Corotosis Blades, no such thing as lightsabers, or Bogan. (Sith.)

So, here's a mere descripton of what it would be:

A little enclave of what was "Jedi" who had magical powers and was used to protect the galaxy, until some Jedi felt like outcasts, abandoned the Jedi, making the Bogan side of the force. The Sith had little weapons, probably nothing better then a Corotosis Blade. When the lightsaber had came out, only Jedi had it until the Sith had stolen

[blodstainer]

@SmeagolStudios are you joking? the oldest history in star wars goes like... 60 000 years back... Dinosaurs are over millions of Years man. and Infinite Empire is the oldest recorded history, after that came he Hutt empire

[SmeagolStudios]

@blodstainer Not sure where the joke would be. But I meant that dinosaurs are hardly the earliest part of the history of the universe for us; even just Earth goes back at least 4.5 billion as opposed to dinosaurs being in the last 100 million years.

I agree with you about Infinite empire, there are a few vague bits of info that date back (much) further than that but not any major stories.

[blodstainer]

@SmeagolStudios The "joke" was the thing about earth, since it's from "a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away..." Because there aren't time travel in star wars, and no earth, that would seem strange...

[Stormorbiter]

@zaandarbrow The Big Bang.

[moleman9000]

@zaandarbrow im not sure but you can check on wookiepiedia

[dinocoking]

@zaandarbrow: The first part of Star Wars was...well, just look at the timeline I made: 25,000 BBY: Creation of Jedi Order and Republic 5,000 BBY: Creation of Sith; Great Hyperspace War 4,990 BBY: Fall of Sith Empire 4,000-3,996 BBY: Exar Kun War 3,956 BBY: Jedi Civil War 3,951 BBY: Sith Civil War 3,681-3,653 BBY: Great Galactic War 2,000 BBY: Creation of New Sith Empire 1,000 BBY: Battle of Ruusan; Rule of Two Founded

[Legoghost14]

@dinocoking I think alot more happened before Rule of Two

[crazylegoproductions]

@zaandarbrow Technically, our first part of history was the formation of Earth, four point five BILLION years ago.

[BoMb3rMaN1]

this was so good that they should hav it turned into a movie

[SuperBlackBiker]

nice!

[SuperBlackBiker]

is darth bane good or bad? because if hes darth, wouldnt he be sith? and also, if hes been named darth, why would he want to destroy the sith? sorry, i'm not disrespecting your movie (its so awesome!) its just i dont know the storyline. oh and who are the robots?

[SmeagolStudios]

@SuperBlackBiker I didn't make up the story, but basically Bane destroyed the Sith order as it was at the time, except for himself, to end all the infighting and created the "rule of two," where there is only one master and one apprentice at a time.

No robots in this, there are some Sith troopers (as seen in the Knights of the Old Republic games) that are sort of robot-esque

[gogman25]

@SuperBlackBiker Sith does not always = bad.

Don't listen to what Lucas says, the old fuckers gone nutty.

[legomen330]

@SuperBlackBiker darth bane was bad !!!! he was a sith lord!!!!

[LampLightZDL]

Haha, I noticed the sith holocron. Very nice, I havent watched this in ages.

[evilmage567]

Is Darth Malak Darth Bane's master?

[SmeagolStudios]

@evilmage567 No. Basically I just wanted to shoehorn Malak into the trailer.

[evilmage567]

@SmeagolStudios Malak would make a cool master for Bane though.

[ebrowne369]

@evilmage567 no. bane was at first trained by all the mentors on korriban, but when he got shunned he secretly only continued with kas'im the swordsman and githany, another student. however, after visiting the tombs on korriban, he made a revelation about the sith and rejected all of the brotherhoods teachings, I.E. equality/stability, except for practical lessons and knowledge, I.E force tricks, light saber moves, etc. he then also learned most of his stuff from salvaged holocrons from planets.

[noahdude9000]

@evilmage567 no darth malak isnt a master he is

darth revens apprentice

[evilmage567]

@noahdude9000 i no that but i thougt when Revan killed Bandon he secrectly got Bane as an apprentice but i no that now he didn't

[SuckMyCOG]

Wow that was pretty good...I think it would be an awesome idea for a movie for the Darth Bane series...

[Drex088]

love the CG it is awesome

[Nomuit]

The Sith weren't in control, it was more of a stalemate between the Republic and the Sith =/

[TehEpicPineapple]

you know my friends tell me that CG and green screen will never look good in films...but this has proven them wrong. I love it!(and by the way that shot with the army of light and the brotherhood of darkness clashing WASNT too dark!!! The darkness really brought out the lightsabers and it looked awesome!!!!!

[soundwavesuperior101]

WOW

[BrickmazeProductions]

Awesome

9.8/10

[mcclainjaneen]

why do people always have bane's lightsaber purple? In the books it says red.

[SmeagolStudios]

@mcclainjaneen A lot of the artwork, and also and comics predating the novels, shows a purpleish blade like in my trailer; I liked the look of it better than the red.

[goowy1256]

@SmeagolStudios yea the disclaimed all of that when they made the books, its red and curved

[crazylegoproductions]

@mcclainjaneen Purple's epic. XD

[s0ulberzerkr]

I hat how people believe there is only 4 colors for lightsabers all colors are for lightsabers lego should endorse that

[1manandhisdogpics]

I just finished reading path of destruction this is awesome and sticks well to the book cool job

[dinocoking]

If you're not making a full film of it, I wouldn't identifiy it as a trailer. It would more be like a short before a movie.

[SmeagolStudios]

@dinocoking Naw, a short film is a very different thing. This is edited and paced like a movie trailer, whereas a short film usually tries to tell a simple story with a distinct beginning, middle, and end in a more complete fashion.

[LEGO4Tobi]

Wow, this is just EPIC, all that animation and stuff must have been a great achievement for you! What software did you use to make those animations? How long did this take you?

[TicTocBOOM123]

@2:00 pretty colours

[NIKEo76]

This looks so epic in HD

[TheCaptJD]

Before watching the end I loved it!

[BoxOfficeBuddy]

thats awesome!

[44448a]

nice mandalorian!

[ionrocket]

hey smeagol studios at :24 is diesel (later darth bane) crying? just want to be sure

[SmeagolStudios]

@ionrocket Yes.

[crazylegoproductions]

You should make a movie of this

[LordBarrick]

So cool!

[MrSithlordvader]

1:09 that is lord malak from star wars knights of the old republic and 1:42 those are guards drom star wars knights of the old republic

[MrLegoguy9198]

it would have been a very good movie if you made the full thing. Why didnt you?

[SmeagolStudios]

@MrLegoguy9198 it'd take years to do it right...and I don't want to spend several years making another Star Wars lego movie.

[MrLegoguy9198]

@SmeagolStudios ok

[DeathGodRiku]

is this real?

[gradeygradeygradey]

whats the song called at 2:14 ?

[SmeagolStudios]

@gradeygradeygradey I don't know, it's from the Episode 3 soundtrack, though. It's been a while, the music in this is a blend of several pieces from that soundtrack.

[jediking12]

@gradeygradeygradey Anakin's Betrayal

[LordBarrick]

@gradeygradeygradey The music at 2:14 is from two different parts of Anakins Betrayal from the Revenge of the Sith OST. Hope this helped :)

[DarthBuddy96]

@gradeygradeygradey the SONG you are looking for is "Anakins Betrayal" from the "Episode III Revenge Of The Sith"

[DarthBuddy96]

@gradeygradeygradey you can find the SONG on the Episode III SOUNDTRACK the Song is "Anakins Betrayal" :)

[99JediDrew]

no! why won;t you make a full of this?!? its so awesome!

[ToxicDream916]

Holy crap, That was AWSOME!!!!!

[za5081]

man that be a great movie

[lexserrano1]

very well done!!

[fireguy789]

was the mandolorian colour corrected picture by picture, or via some video editing software. I have been wondering about this for quite some time now.

[SmeagolStudios]

@fireguy789 I used a color swapping function in VirtualDub

[fireguy789]

@SmeagolStudios ah, I was looking for a similar function in Adobe After Effects. Im pretty sure it might have one.

[bmjohnheath]

its episode 3 revenge of the sith

[supermariobrosx1]

u should make this a movie

[crazylegoproductions]

I was confused, I was thinking of Revan. : )

[Nycoful]

richtig genial :)

[tictacluvsff5]

This is SO COOL. Wish you would do a movie! I love the Sith! And the detail in your sets! Wow. The sith symbol above the door...can't get better than that!

[milkbonebuddy]

BEAST!!!!!!!!!!

[namchild]

great work, great cgi too, the night sword battle at the end was a sick idea.

[crazylegoproductions]

It's 3000 years, not 1,000

[SmeagolStudios]

You're confused I guess, Darth Bane was born in 1026 BBY, which is about 1000 years before Episode 3 / the rise of the Empire.

[legoackbar]

@crazylegoproductions I'll have to look that up.

[legoackbar]

@crazylegoproductions he's right

[BKMPictures]

@crazylegoproductions I think you're getting confused with Darth Nihilus.

[thebetts]

what guys are at 1:42?

[SmeagolStudios]

Those are Sith Troopers.

[ultraprime501]

@SmeagolStudios Did you get decals for the Sith Troopers?

[SmeagolStudios]

@ultraprime501 Nope, I photoshopped them to look like they had decals on them (the Sith Troopers never move in this trailer, anyway)

[undisputedgreatest]

Oh...this is absolutely incredible. I love it. That is my favorite book.

[Noc2081]

Great work!

Cant wait to see more...

[Madmonkeythegreat]

very good cgi

[alexcstudios]

technically no the sith didnt rule the galaxy because in episode 3 they say we cant let 2000 years of deomacracy die with out a fight

[wesdarth]

this trailer alone is worthy of a TREKJEDI award make the fukk fill and i'll award you the o prize recognition its worthy of a movie award. keep up the good work.

[fireguy789]

why wouldnt you make a full film, I meen this is a great idea

[TheAnimatorEqualizer]

The most amazing use of CGI and Chroma Key in a brickfilm I have ever seen. Great job 5/5!

[THEMASTERFILMS]

sith holokron at 0:57

[DarthLego100]

woah

[sharkboy1107]

this is awsome

[JonahStudios]

do you do the voice acting or is this from a film

[SmeagolStudios]

I did it

[patryczek118]

please make full movie

[TheMattanAge]

To bad you can't make a full movie out of it, especially since such feat in itself has many benefits. But then again, this is an large accomplishment in itself and you should be commended for making such an epic trailer.

[sevthelgo]

they should make a real movie of it

[BKMPictures]

Awesome trailer!!! It would have made a great movie if you had made it. 5/5

[customlegominifigek]

please make this a movie!

[Gzillaman14]

Very good graphics how do u do that ?

[MadLibs007]

@Gzillaman14 green screen, cgi,

[revowii]

Why was it Malak talking to him in the holocron? The book said it was Revan.

[SmeagolStudios]

There's a note about this in the video description. It's Malak's ghost, not the holocron, that he's talking to in the trailer.

[Tobias407]

that´s great!

um... can you make a jedi vs. sith battle, please?

[Tobias407]

5/5

[fireguy789]

you no.. in all the star wars stop motions with lego ive seen, from squad 42, to bane of the sith to rise of the empire... not single one has a jedi hacking up soldiers with his lightsaber like in the movie...

[sokka454]

omg so awsome

[onehitok]

I though this was a trailer, Best star wars video ever!!!

[MrLegoteen33]

so cool

[fireguy789]

this is pure amazing but its not realy a brickfilm its more a CGI-lego hybrid....

AMAZING THOUGH....

[elwood272]

where can you download the soundeffects?

[riverbendjuniorhigh]

Bane NEVER told Kaan of his plan of destroy the Sith, Bane never entered the crystal cave, Bane never ever fought Kaan!

[SmeagolStudios]

Correct, as per the description I didn't closely follow the books.

[sokka454]

where did you get this information from because i want to learn more

[riverbendjuniorhigh]

Darth Bane: Path of Destruction the book.

[sokka454]

thanks so much but where can i buy it ? booksamilion

[riverbendjuniorhigh]

And who is that long hair mustache person? Kaan? Qoordis?

[SmeagolStudios]

Kaan.

[riverbendjuniorhigh]

Bane talked to Darth Revan not Darth Malak!

[SmeagolStudios]

Correct, the Malak bit is an embellishment, though to clarify it's not the holocron of Malak, it is his ghost.

[bigfoot343]

somebody should totally make a bane story in live action

[mitrode32]

Its so coooooool

[Websitecommissie]

What's the name of the soundtrack you used for this amazing trailer?

[SmeagolStudios]

I used various bits of music from the Star Wars Ep. 3 soundtrack
