  • i dont know how many times ive seen this but i know one thing, this video still gives me chills

  • that "Rissseee" was SOO F'ING AMAZING EPIC AWESOME!!!!

  • SPOILER ALERT!!

  • I wish I could have seen this teaser on the big screen when it first came out.

  • I do so love this teaser trailer

  • The best Trailer of Star wars

  • before i watched star wars episode 3 i was a jedi in many years...

    i came out like a sith.. fuck yeah!

  • This was the only Star Wars I actually saw in theaters during its official release and it got me into Star Wars in the first place. Best to Worst: IV V VI III II I

  • OK, this teaser is seriously the best teaser I've ever seen. I can't TELL YOU how excited I was when I first saw this! There was so much hype and expectation back in 2005 before this movie came out. This was the episode where Anakin turns into Darth Vader!!!!!

    There are so many gems in this... Anakin turns and his eye is pure evil... the Emperor tells Vader to rise... the 1 second glimpse of a crazy lightsaber-wielding Emperor laughing maniacally...

    ...holy shit balls nerdgasm to the extreme!

  • @fermie125 I agree. I hated Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones SO MUCH. But when I saw this teaser I actually got goosebumps. Seriously i was like "damn..okay, maybe Lucas got it right this time", and he did. Easily the best of the prequels by far, got me back into Star Wars again.

  • If you were a kid or teen in the 2000s I can understand mocking the prequels.

    With the stuff out there today SW cant compete with edgy & flashy film making.

    But they are still decent flicks.

    In 20-30 yrs Harry Potter might look lame to your kids too.

  • I saw A NEW HOPE in the theater in 1977 when I was 4 yrs old.

    Seen every SW film on the big screen.

    The original trilogy was great. The prequels were not as good in comparison but still good films.

    PHANTOM MENACE was  BORING. saber fight only thing worth watching.

    ATTACK of the CLONES was pretty darn good.

    SITH was freaking awsome. as good or better than JEDI.

  • i remember seeing this trailer in the theater when i was like 13, and the ENTIRE audience started cheering....chills man....greatest saga ever

  • @Evenflowist314 thats your opinion. I love it and enjoy watching it too bad you can't say the same I feel sorry for ya i'm not brainwashed by the critics.

  • @RockenDokkenlover91

    Yeah, you're brainwashed by the other 12 year-olds who can't tell when the movies poorly written, terrible dialogue, over the top lame action sequences... At least most critics know what they're talking about and can analyze a movie.

  • @Evenflowist314 psh I saw these as a kid when they first came out now i'm 21. My brother who is an original star wars fan hes 40 loves em too so do all of our friends and we're not just typical fans we're all nerds we go to every comic con/conventions and all that shit while people are busy crying about how "shitty" they are we're having a good time watching them. Don't call us idiots for enjoyin something that you can't. And for the record OT>PT by far but PT is still enjoyable and its SW man!

  • @RockenDokkenlover91

    Yeah, not calling you an idiot, I'm just saying that because you like something doesn't mean that it's good. Truth is as far as simple writing goes, plot, character development, etc. the prequels were pathetic and if you want to defend them by saying you like them, fine. Doesn't mean they were good, just means you've lowered your standards from the originals, that's all.

  • @Evenflowist314 I didn't mean you I meant it more like prequal haters in general end up calling us prequal lovers something for liking them and this is nothing personal i'm just tired of seeing people bashing the prequals on every video I go to its pretty annoying and I know they're not great but hell I like alot of movies that are cheesy shit I wouldn't say I have bad taste after all my six favorite movies are Episode 4 5 and 6 and the first 3 Indiana Jones movies followed by The Prequals

  • @RockenDokkenlover91

    Fair enough and for the record it's not so much that I hate it, it just lets me down.

  • It's time for a remake. The old Battlestar Galactica had the same Sci-Fi style as Star Wars (1977) and was remade into an excellent television show. The same can be done for this franchise ... except it doesn't have to be a television show. But if it were that wouldn't be too bad.

  • @scottdatplanetsave1

    Actually, there is a live-action Star Wars TV show in the works.

    It's supposed to take place between Episode 3 and Episode 4.

  • @slangshotstudios theres only 1 saga.  the other 3 are video games.

  • super!

  • when i first seen this trailer i got shivers down my back!!

  • I SAY LUCAS SHOULD FILM A NEW SAGA BUT THIS TIME FILM THE KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC STORY THE STORY OF DARTH REVAN

  • @slangshotstudios his point is u said they were from the 80s

  • This was definitely better than Episodes 1 and 2. This one didn't have Jar Jar as one of the main characters, like Episode 1, and it wasn't filled with as much cheesy love scenes, like Episode 2. This was a very good movie, in my opinion, despite the fact that Hayden Christensen is a terrible actor

  • @slangshotstudios Well.... none of them is a masterpiece, and I just cant understand how in the world you can like them.

    I hate them, I really a trully hate them.

    But hey, everyone likes what he likes, right.

    All the best in the new year buddy :)

  • @slangshotstudios the thing is they both contradict eachother, its painful

  • the old obi wan looks just like my great grandpa lol

  • I was 13 years old when i watched this at the movies and i came out a changed man! :D

  • @Misaelito1991 :{D*

  • in my opinion, greates movie trailer ever!!!

  • 0:38 INCREDIBLE

  • WHAT THE HELL IS THE SONG THAT STARTS AT 1:08? IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR ^ YEARS!!

  • they should have stopped it at 0:54

  • Oh so

  • Everybody must see this /watch?v=6G24O0iHOVQ

  • i remember watching this back in 2004... those were the days

  • @ricardoriffoc Don't you mean 2005 ?, ha ha :D

  • @doctorwhoone The teaser was released in November 2004.

  • @ricardoriffoc I still have my ticket stub hahaha

  • @slangshotstudios I couldn't agree more. Each trilogy is separate in terms of actors, locations, story, and even interest. But they're BOTH star wars. Anyone who gives the prequels a bad rap is not a true star wars fan!

  • The Sith Lord Rises :)

  • I can re-tell/recite the whole of this movie back to front.

  • The Phantom Menace wasnt perfect, neither was AOTC, I understand and I agree that the original is far superior to the prequels, but honestly I loved this movie. It was probably one of the darkest and most emotional of them all next to "Empire". Die hards can hate as much as they want on the prequels, but I felt I got every inch of my moneys worth when I left the theater back in May of '05.

  • @Blackdragon52k sorry but episode 1 and 2 are awesome... perfect movies, they are the begining of the saga and can´t be the same like the other on episodes :)

  • anyone notice in the trailer when vader rises his hands are up by his shoulders but in the movie they are by his sides? lol

  • @slangshotstudios The prequels to me are far better than the originals, and I grew up watching both. They are much more compelling, interesting, and well written. Not to mention they are eye candy.

  • @slangshotstudios i pity thee, bro

  • @slangshotstudios .... the originals started in the 70s just sayin .... lawlz xD

  • whats the name of the theme that starts at 1:08?

  • @NCC1371 - It's from Episode I, when Anakin is flying out of the exploding Federation Ship. It's only heard in the Ultimate Edition of the soundtrack, and the track's called "The Tide Turns / The Death of Darth Maul."

  • @momoflakes thank you i have love that part of the soundtrack but i could never find it this helps me a lot.

  • Oh gosh, I am getting so giddy. I remember when I saw this trailer and was getting so excited. I was 12 years old and look at me now, attending conventions. I have come so far!

  • "Guardians of peace and justice MY ASS!"

    -confusedmatthew

  • @slangshotstudios

    They're all highly entertaining. Some of the SW films are weaker than others, each one with some flaws (including the OT). But despite them this Saga overall is still one of my favorite films series' of all time.

  • I was amazed with this trailer cause it had lot's of classic elements. A bunch of wookies (Original Trilogy cause of Chewbacca), Darth Vader (Original Trilogy), Emperor (Original Trilogy). When I saw this film, I loved it.

  • @slangshotstudios FInally someone understands

  • ...has it REALLY been 6 YEARS ?

  • @Eye2EyeIIIV we're almost at 7.

  • @Eye2EyeIIIV

    movie came out in 2005, and it's 2012, so it's about 7 years. Less than 3 months shy of 7 years from release...

  • I maintain that this teaser and the subsequent one are two of the best trailers ever. They just get everything so right in selling the film.

  • Why does the guy at 1:10 have such a tiny role? He looks like he would have made one of the better villains of the series.

  • @Jahoobano because he's a random Utapauan. There is a seperatist Utapauan in the Clone Wars cartoon

  • @slangshotstudios

    They are moving at places, and entertaining / well-made in others. Some "astounding" aspects like certain actors or special effects, as well.

    But I don't know how you can say they're "masterpieces" - I mean, if you think the dialog and acting (and the plot) hold up, like, say, you enjoy the romance in Clones and find it "moving", then fine I guess.

  • this. is. AMAZING :D

  • this is such a great teaser. leaves you thinking: "holy shit"

  • Damn it Lucas you shoulda got Speilberg to wirte AND direct this one...in fact he shoulda done the ENTIRE TRILOGY. Just my opinion.

  • @arsenalrulez1000

    And Lucas should've directed people to their seats ;)

  • @twooffour LOOL Good Joke. But to be honest WE chose to go see this film, and we can only blame OURSELVES for buying into this I mean we've seen the first two of the trilogy and we HATED 'EM yet we STILL chose to go see it (well at the time I didn't I was only 11 and i LOVED Star Wars: CLONE Wars so I went to introduce myself to the Star Wars galaxy). Obviously I'm matured now and see why these films weren't received well and I see why we don't deserve a SEQUEL trilogy...

  • @arsenalrulez1000

    I've stolen it from RedLetterMedia, though :)

    I honestly don't even know why anyone should be "blamed" for anything.

    Lucas and crew made three flawed movies, we went to see it. Why not? I love bad movies :D

  • EPIC

  • Anyone can tell me which track is the music starting from 1:08?? Please??

  • Lord Vader. Yes master. Rye...Bread....

  • @Christrulesall2 LOL....you just made my day!

  • 1:08-1:25 what soundtrack is that

  • @JeffreyMLicano11 i don't know how it's called but that is in the scene in episode 1 when anakin blows up the driod control ship

  • I just noticed on the trailer his Vader's hands are cuffed up but in the movie they're down!

  • @StarWarsStory Ya dude! i noticed that a while ago but i always wondered why? i think cuffed up looks cooler

  • @StarWarsStory Yeah I noticed that too, maybe they released the trailer before they completely finished the movie, and the director thought of changing it!

  • OMG this brings back such awesome memories!!!! I was so hyped for this movie! I should have went opening night tho. So sad I didnt...

  • @slangshotstudios me too man

  • EPIC

  • Sorry I don't do Bandwagons, come back when you're worth $3.5 billion and have created the most influential franchise of all time and 3 industry leading companies

  • I'm not sure how any Star Wars fan could hate this movie. It had so much action, so much emotion, so much drama. IT was truly an intense film with so many awesome scenes.

    I don't see how anyone could call the prequels terrible. I'm sorry, but I watched the original three movies and they are not nearly as intense as the newer ones. Yes, they were great films, but I don't see how one could like the original films and dislike the new ones - if anything, it's vice versa.

  • This is just one of the most fun teasers ever, love the early Mustafar lava effects.

  • I love how they put the originals in this trailer:)

  • @slangshotstudios I agree

  • Awesome trailer, terrible movie!

  • @IstahilIB star wars episode 2 was not a bad movie, i mean if you think it was bad then fine, but don't label it like that.

  • @DarthXboxian Revenge of the Sith was episode 3........ and all three prequels films were terrible, I'm sticking to it.

  • What a fantastic tribute to Alec Guinness....oh i mean't the nostalgic trailer not Ewan McGregor he sucked he was WAAAYYY too cocky in this film him and his high ground loool.

  • @arsenalrulez1000 Ewan did like a perfect tribute to Alec Guiness. He studied all of his mannerisms and really tried to do him justice. Him and Ian McDermid saved this movie in a lot of ways, two very tremendously talented actors.

  • 1 > 2 > 4 > 6 > 5 > 3.

    Not everyone will agree, but, imo, this was the best Star Wars film. It was dark, intense, and surprisingly visceral. For any fan who felt cheated when Phantom Menace came out, this movie will make up for it.

  • @LetsGetHighOnMorris I agree. I'd say most of the people who still claim this was a "bad" movie simply closed their minds after watching episode 1. I agree with them Episode 1 sucked, and I can hardly watch it, but that doesn't automatically mean the others are bad. Episode 2 was a good sifi flick and this one was a classic imho

  • Ah, good times. This trailer was the best. If only Lucas could make the movies again with the cgi we have now. At least then Lucas could show how jedi really fight instead of just swinging lightsabers. There would be force blows and force lightning everywhere like the force unleashed. If only.

  • @Equistta Well I hear that later this year, Lucas will have the entire saga re-mastered and released on blu ray. Would that fulfill what you'd like?

  • @ryhorn100 Even if he did that, the footage would be the same. I'm talking about redoing the fight scenes, the stories fine but the fight scenes is basically two men with swords. It's not two jedi fighting. If two jedi were fighting, the aftermath would look like a nuclear bomb. I'm for real too. The jedi were suppose to be powered beasts. That's what i want to see.

  • @Equistta The thing is, that by this point in the Jedi's History they'd lost alot of their power. They weren't the unholy powerhouses they were in the Old Republic. They had been peacekeepers for so long that the call of war wasn't there anymore and it made them weaker. before the Separatists, they Jedi hadn't faced a real opponent since the old republic era. The Sith had been hiding in secret for the past few thousand years building their power, and Palpatine was the result of it.

  • @Equistta They are powered beasts but lucas made sure to differentiate their power from magic, in the end they are just men. Powerful men fighting on a level we couldn't match. They aren't just gonna run around using the force to blow things up, that's not how the jedi are envisioned. It's the retarded EU that makes them too much like superheros or something

  • who else here thinks that "Vader", the suit himself, should have had more facetime in the 3rd movie?

  • Audio's running a tad fast, thumbs down

  • We Want The Episode V-I-I!!!

  • @JohnLufyros Episode VII? No point in that. You'd have to find other actors to play the roles of Luke Skywalker and the other surviving main characters. But there's no one who could do a better job than the original cast, and they've all grown old. Besides, all kinds of stories have been illustrated in Star Wars video games and books set after Episode VI. What more do you need?

  • @ryhorn100 Well that just was my opinion and the opinion of Many people, i know that nobody can be or can acting like The Original Characters, i mean, if it's possible, make another history, but by the way, is just my opinion....if you don't like my comment, just put thumbs down....

  • @JohnLufyros I'm not going to give a thumbs down to your comment. It's not like it's abusive or retarded. You have a genuine opinion on the matter. In fact, I think a new history in Star Wars would be a good idea. But it would take an immense amount of thought and creativity to compare with an epic story that sci-fi fans have bonded with for decades.

  • @ryhorn100 I agree with you, make a new History is going to be something hard...even for George Lucas..but who knows jaja. Ahm i want to say that i'm sorry if my english is bad...i'm in learning of the language

  • @JohnLufyros Don't worry about it. The vast majority of people don't type in perfect punctuation anyway, so I wouldn't notice if you were someone learning English.

  • @ryhorn100 Get JJ Abrams on it (he got me to like Star Trek, he can sure as hell take Star Wars even further).

  • I saw this trailer for the first time when I was 12, and it shellshocked me to the core. A truly brilliant teaser.

  • I remember seeing this trailer on the big screen a few years back. I was only 10 years old, and my eyes were glued to the screen, and I leaned to my mom and said "Can we see that?!" Haha, the nostalgia value to this movie rises every day....

  • Personally prefer the Phantom Menace's Teaser Trailer(but not the movie obviously)... that was awesome.

  • Yes Master?

    Wanna smoke a joint?

  • 0:54-1:06 Epic....the best Darth Vader suit ever

  • the best star wars trailer . period !

  • 0 people hate star wars XP

  • I remember when i saw this trailer, its before The Incredibles. After the movie ends everybody talks "OMG Star Wars trailer OMG", even the children. I watched that movie again just because of this trailer xD

  • I don't think I ever got so hyped for a film b4 when this was coming out. Also say what u will about the prequel trilogy BUt the 1 thing that was absolutly consistent with the older films was the quality music

  • Earl Jones did the voice of Vader? :l

  • Is Earl Jones did the voice of Vader? he sounds different :l

  • You know what offends me most about these trailers is that Lucas has the gall to use John Williams' best Star Wars scores to promote UTTER SHIT!

  • What's the name of the beginning song?

  • Emperor: Lord Vader...

    Darth Vader: Yes Master?

    Emperor: Now You Sound Evil.....HAHAHA!

  • the first time i say 0:36 i was freaked when i was a kid

  • i dont care what anyone says about the prequels this is my favorite star wars of all time it had so many fight scenes and that all i always wanted to see in star wars growing up with it 

  • I remember 5 years ago the first time I heard Vader's voice on this trailer, I was completely hyped for this movie at it didn't dissapoint.

  • @ILLSTATEMOBSTER I've been searching for the end track for ages! It's not on the Revenge of the Sith soundtrack (at least not on the iTunes version!) and I can't find it anywhere! :( Let me know if you find it. ;)

  • @edwardchelski & ILLSTATEMOBSTER That song is from the Phantom Menace. It's on the two disc soundtrack, on the second disc track 28.

  • @maynrocks Thanks yeah I've found although I wish there was a track that put it in the arrangement of this trailer! :S

  • Possibly the best star wars movie of all time (along with Empire Strikes Back).

  • STAR WARS 3D 1-6 coming 2012-2017, can't wait.

  • Best. Trailer. Ever. (Besides Deathly Hallows, of course!)

  • E P I C Fail

  • @manolousi, everybody knows that the originals are the best, being The Empire Strikes back for instance.

    However these movies made alot of money and young kids today, this is there

    star wars, not so much ours....so therefore don't complain. I like all the star wars

    movies as one whole story.

  • @manolousi

    People who use the phrase epic fail have already failed at life.

  • @betterthanbooks People who have time to read and complaint about the comments on youtube are in desperate need of geting a new life

  • Le vi en el pre-estreno en Enschede.....jamas pense verla tan lejos de casa y estrenando un proyector cinematografico digital

  • Lord Vader... Riiiiiiiise

  • @tplusk1 dude episode 1 and 2 were bad, boring, (2 was a bit better) but come on episode 3 was fuking epic

  • @krisvader I totally agree withy you. Episode three was amazing!! the saber fighting at the end....legendary

  • and if you all are trying to say that i've lied only to try to fuckin cover the shitty situation then you better stop blameing me and check my fuckin' channel and see to what is dedicated for!!!!

  • first time i saw this teaser trailer i shit my pants

  • @malcholeric4 nothing compared to the teaser of return of the jedi that i witnessed in cinemas in 1982 !! ... you havent lived trust me

  • What is tha song at 1:08 it's too fuckin epic I've been searching for it since 04 help me Ben kenobi ur my only hope yes I am a part of the rebel alliance and a traiter take me away!!!!!!

  • @ILLSTATEMOBSTER The Tide Turns

  • @tplusk1 dont worry, im a filmmaker and if i make it to hollywood im gonna convince GL to let me make a star wars film based on a story i wrote

  • This trailer is one of my favorit trailers of all time!

    The movie kinda sucks tough...

  • what is music 0:03 0:24

  • My favorite movie trailer of all time.

  • I felt that nostalgic excitement watching this again. It was only 5 years ago, but I got nostalgic either way. I was a senior in high school, and I the anticipation that my friends and I felt was palpable. This teaser makes it feel like non-stop brooding epic badassery, but the movie itself isn't so serious. I still love the film franchise anyway.

  • @RedIV haha Nostalgic ?... this was literaly a few years ago ... i feel that remembering watching empire strikes back and return of the jedi on original cinema release.... ,all the prequel star wars movies were shit compared to the hype and buzz that was around at the time of the originals in cinemas ..... when those special effects were outstanding and ground breaking compared to everything else at that time,everything is just cgi now,so nothing dazzles anymore

  • @RedIV agreed this was by far the best out of the 3 prequels it was actually a pretty good depiction of anakin's rage and jealousy. however i just didnt like episodes 1&2 or the new pointless 3d clonewars(hell Star Wars: Clone Wars 2003 TV series had a way better explanation leading to episode 3 than episode 2 did)

  • @RedIV i feel the same things too with my friends, i was 21 years old last years in college

    what do you mean about the movie isnt so serious ??

  • sorry! but the comment was for another vid! i dont know what the fuck i've done! sorry! sorry to all of you! im a big sw fan and i dont think i would intentionally make such a mistake! i even have the dvd where the trailers is! sorry again!

  • best star wars trailer ever ( even for being a teaser )

    Alec Guinness sequence at the beginning telling the story of annakin is just too damn awesome

  • Comment removed

  • @leadspot : Correct. Despite the fact I am a fan and follower of the Old Trilogy, I keep watching and re-watching the specific trailer. Magnificent job.

  • @PsychotronicWar agreed

  • i remember seeing The Incredables in theaters just to see this trailer...so worth it.

  • I thought the third was the best prequal but I wonder how much better they could have been if Hayden Christiansen wasnt playing Anakin? The little kid in episode one was a better actor then him.

  • Obi-Wan: For over a thousand generations the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times. Before the Empire. A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was pupil of mine until he turned to evil, helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi Knights. Vader was seduced by the dark side of the Force.

    Emperor: Lord Vader.

    Vader: Yes, master.

    Emperor. Rise.

  • FAvorite trailer for episode 3, especially at the end when the imperial march starts playing :D

  • Absolutely brilliant.

  • what are those animal thingys at 1:36?
