Star Wars Episode III: The Chosen One Featurette

[milotickz]

George Lucas might deny it, but Anakin was clearly created by Darth Plagueis when he manipulated the midi-chlorians in Shmi Skywalker.

[ojlurk]

Now I'll have to see the movies all over again! :) I love star wars. Some people see it nerdy, I don't like those people who says that but have'nt even seen the movies. They are great! this is one of the best movies ever made! I say that because I think so, and because it's so well made, and that's nothing you can change! :) Love this movie!!!

[lordvoldemort578]

13;35 you've arrived

[comedycentral616]

@preludeincsharpminor Obi wan sucks balls

[preludeincsharpminor]

screw the chosen one. i love obi-wan. <3

[TheBestKlaas]

you need some accuracy for this but if you stop it correctly at 1:43 you see the name Starkiller OMG! TFU

[maskaryan]

@TheBestKlaas well, skywalker originally was going to be starkiller.

[mranderson00001]

@TheBestKlaas As mentioned by @TheBestKlaas Luke was originally to be called Luke Starkiller in the first draft of the then named 'The Star Wars'.

[cvelenba]

I just watched Episode 1 3D with some friends and some of them were like joking with some scenes how acting is bad and over the top. But they all forgot or don't know in the first place that SW is and epic space opera. So in my opinion it should look more like a theater acting or acting in opera where parts that are spoken are usually over the top. That's one of many reasons I like SW, even though it's a movie I feel like I'm sitting in my chair and watching these adventures happening before me.

[lordvoldemort578]

@cvelenba agree

[18isAlex]

i loved all the star wars films to be honest, they all have pro's and cons in my opinion but i totally geek out over them XD

[stengraf]

i got goose bumps when Hayden appeared as darth vader at 12:10

[MyHirogen]

@stengraf then you lost them and started laughing at the whole franchise the moment he said "NOOooooooooooo".

[Assaulter312]

Those 2 dilikes must be Count Dooku and Mace Windu afterall he did kill both of them.

[IlluminatingFilms]

Love George Lucas as a writer, but as a director...eh.

[TheAngelofmusic12345]

a man behind a mask...Phantom?

[MJJforever97]

i love his voice, i love his eyes, i love his smile.....i love everything about hayden ♥

[ComanderScar]

poor Vader! He lost everything! -cries-

[lordvoldemort578]

10::49 than it woull look like his legs were up iiot 1;34

[lordvoldemort578]

8:20 resolve their differences lmao nigga he made you a triple amputee

[agibbs19]

"Starkiller" mentioned in script at 01:44

[MattTC1028]

wait at 5:22 is the yoda from the new ep 1 blu ray. how is that on this featurette from the 2005 DVD?

[mranderson00001]

@MattTC1028 Wow. I've never picked up on that before. Impressive.

[TheVblogs]

@mranderson00001 Most impressive. ;) lol

[A113Pixar]

@MattTC1028 I believe it was one of the earliest "sneak peeks" thrown into this featurette before it was revealed to be for the Blu-Ray release of Phantom Menace (and now the 3D re-release).

[Biosynthnut]

@MattTC1028 I think that's from ATOC actually.

[MrJedabak]

Hayden didn't take this role to its full potential. Not saying it isn't good, but it isn't as good as it could have been. If Hayden had actually portrayed Anakin the way he was supposed to, he would be a superstar by now.

[guitarskittles18]

1:44 starkiller from force unleashed?

[MrJedabak]

@guitarskittles18 No. Originally, Luke's name was Anakin Starkiller. That script is actually the first draft of The Star Wars.

[obamacka2008]

Thank you Mr. Lucas for making my life better =)

[danybellefeuille]

12:57 is epic!

[Liton777]

makes me feel like playing a star wars game.

[MegaStar213]

how come this isnt avaible on star wars the complete series on blu ray i bought it i was kind of disaponted i spent 100 dollers on the series

[mranderson00001]

@MegaStar213 Well that sucks. I have the full blu-ray set but hadn't gotten around to seeing if these Webisodes and Featurettes are on there. Still, at least you can watch them on my channel :)

[1101millie97]

I never really liked Natalie Portman playing Padme -it just doesn't feel genuine enough to me.

[darkpro0031]

amazing vedeo :-)

[zmichalo13]

am i the only one who thinks anakin looking up at 11:42 reminds me of luke's face when he's first told that vader is his father

[TheFuneralPyre]

Everytime i see that scene..... the air tight squeak and the first vader breath.... i get chills down my spine!!!

[puckb96]

it this feature available on the complete saga on Blu-Ray?

[JohnnyDepp1198]

there is nothing to say, George Lucas has revolutionized the world of cinema! And then if we look at all the work behind these films frightened us! Costumes, special effects, makeup, actors, designers .... and many more! The legendary George has given birth to two fantastic sage .. fully connected with each other and so exciting .. I have done so much to dream, to become part of me! George Lucas thank you very much! ♥♥♥

[malagoni100]

@JohnnyDepp11-

[StarWarsUnited123]

12:15 no shit George! lol

[LOSGUERREROS619]

Love the sound at 00:18

[libbyrock123]

This guy is so freakin adoreable!!!!! 

[kiddcampbell]

YES! YES! Like This Comment! Good. Now, Go Slaughter Children Jedi!

[bierbuik]

10:28 Man Lucas looks like some kind of retard on that scene, ruining the spontaneous banter between Ewan and Hayden LOL

[LilyMoth12]

This movie was extremely depressing. George was lazy with camera shots. But somehow the movie is number 1 on my rankings of the word's most depressing films of all time!!

[GeneralErlend]

Lol, at 13:06. Every time I watch the movie, I'm like omfg, watch out where you're waving the lightsaber. What if you accidentally turn the lightsaber on?

[ShinjiroX117]

@GeneralErlend *imagines* Well....Rebellion is screwed.......ACTUALLY maybe not.....Leia is force sensitive too.....but it just won't be the same :(

[GeneralErlend]

I don't see why people complained about Hayden at all. He might not have given the strongest performance in EP 2, I'll agree, but in EP 3 he did a fantastic job with the material given to him. Don't even think Al Pacino could have done better (Not saying that Al Pacino suits for the role at all, just saying that if Hayden can take it to Pacino's level, hes one of the best).

[MeatDrums]

When i saw the people on set applauding when Hayeden entered in a full vader suit, i started laughing hysterically. Not because its funny in any way, but because star wars is so god damn awesome. There's so much story behind every little detail. The droids, the guns, the characters biography and the overall geniality of the movies.

[ASSBANG6969]

Beautiful story. I never met my Father. The story hits a chord....

[asumbudee23]

I love this. this proves to everyone that Luke didn't inherit the prophecy, and also that the story ends with Episode 6, there is no story after that. haters hate on Lucas all you want, you're still wrong.

[VDB567]

8:28 "Obi-Wan comes out with the better hand" What a lame pun!!! XD

[theempire00]

@VDB567 lol

[VDB567]

1:38 Lucas' neck floppy-thingy is hilarous

[Katinicnew]

@VDB567 I think that the purpose of his beard is so people can tell the difference between his head and his neck.

[Treesspotting]

I don't think that the prequels lived up to the originals.

[027220]

@Treesspotting I disagree.

[NixxGrimBlood]

dont think the jedi understood "balance" very well in the prophecy.

[youngboysnation]

@TheBeautician1 no. i have no idea why they chose jake but they chose hayden cause he has a presence of the dark side

[buffalo827]

i thin vader was more of a hero than anyone else. as he himself experienced evil instead of just destroying without learning about.

[donaldthescotishtwin]

Enough prequel bashing they are great films(maybe not phantom menace) but I loved 2 and 3 who gives about the acting or even script writing just feel the story and characters that's what I do so I advise you all to watch the prequels again and try to get attached to the story Insted of nitpicking every little thing

[sec0ndevolution]

@donaldthescotishtwin Who cares about acting or dialogue? You do know those are the most basic elements for a movie, right? Your whole post sounds like nothing but fanboy drivel.

[TheFuneralPyre]

@donaldthescotishtwin AMEN BROTHA!!!

[TheStarDeth]

@donaldthescotishtwin Phantom menace was cool

[lordvoldemort578]

@donaldthescotishtwin You said it best Plinkett is an Idiot

[CrainerEU]

wtf is like everything filmed on a blue-screen? so there aren't almost any decors in the making of starwars?

[TheJediJeep]

I think Anakin just needed a hug

[alixlaurenweaver]

@TheJediJeep Lol!

[LILGmoneyVEVO]

all my friends say star wars is gay but i these movies r my favorie ive been watching star wars sense i was 6 im adickted ive watched every single episode these movies r the best

[stephenson99]

I really don't understand why many people think the first 3 star wars films were excellent (which they were) but why so many people thought the 3 prequel films were rubbish, and didn't have the same great story and impact as the first 3. I think the whole saga is the best saga ever told, and the 3 preqel films told a great back story with lots of action which I thought the first 3 films lacked. Every single star wars film in my view is excellent and they all fit perfectly as a saga.

[chaven74]

@stephenson99 The recent 3, which I refuse to call Star Wars movies, were a cluster F of poor script writing and over the top directing. 3 was maybe passable, at best passable. These were by far the worst series of films to follow up any great movie/series of movies. Followed closely only by Indy and the Crystal Skull. "..they always believe they are doing good, even though they are not." could be the best line to describe what Lucas did to this franchise.

[stephenson99]

@chaven74 I can't agree with you there mate I thought the 3 prequel films were real good. They set the back story and the lightsaber duels were fantastic. I think some times nostalgia can become too much and cloud everything new that comes out, especially for the star wars saga. I think most people already made up their minds and said "These 3 prequel films won't ever beat the original 3 films" before even watching the movies themselves. But thats just my opinion.

[027220]

2:33 - :58 & 13:33 - :43 are also comparable to Mel Gibson's life.

[TEARFROST]

this was AMAZING!! to whoever posted it thank you

[jayce79]

One of my favorite Featurette. Star Wars III was terriffic.

[stereomaster11]

Glad this also shows how much work Hayden had to do in these movies... If people didn't like the image protrayed, blame Lucas... Hayden himself admits he wanted to be darker, but Lucas held him back purposely... Having him only do select scenes as pure evil (if you can call it that). Good job Hayden!

Mark Hamill also admitted he thought at in Return of the Jedi, he would become more dark, maybe even join the dark side for a bit, of course, we're happy that didn't happen...

[MyHirogen]

@stereomaster11 Don't worry, most with half a brain thinks Hayden was great but George Lucas is the retarded one and only him is responsible for destroying star wars.

[cucombre01]

if you watch closely at 1:01, anakins lips are shaking...

[TheBeautician1]

@Stellabillion finally a liget answer thank you

[027220]

13:33 - :43 Opposite of what Kiefer Sutherland says 'bout his character, Ace, at 0:37 - :41 on The Summer of Stand by Me 2 of 4.

[DromeG60]

@TheBeautician1 You didn't see anakin in episode 6 =S

Go to 3:48 to see why they chose him :) its not because of the guy at the end of ep 6

[thecommenter18]

i want to be like that director someday

wow im inspired

[TheDalinkwent]

Lucas is a great story teller, he just doesn't have the focus when it comes to directing.

[andymanportillo]

The scene were they are watching the construction of the death star gives me chills

[Tomfummel]

All I can say is... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­!

[Novinte]

Anakin is not a victim, only if you say because of what happened to his mother, because he made a lot dumb decisions after that.

[027220]

@Novinte He's a 'human being.'

[Necrophil89]

bullshit,thanks to george one of the greatest movie villans of all time has been ridiculed and undermined. srsly there is no way how he could undermine the meaning of vader and of the old movies more than he did with the new stuff.

there is no tragedy to anakins downfall,the new movies tell us that anakin was NEVER a good guy.... everyone who thinks thatt the pt is good should watch the plinkett reviews

[Stronghammer17]

@Necrophil89 Did you not watch Return of the Jedi?

[FAproduction1]

@Necrophil89

Dude, who said Anakin was perfect..His emotion and fear is what draw ed him to the dark side..Yoda told Luke..Pay attention ..

[libbyrock123]

@FAproduction1 Yes Yoda did tell Anakin about fear leading one to the dark side!

[MyHirogen]

@FAproduction1 Yoda also said the force is not a micro bacteria by which a jedi is judged. Strong is your Selective hearing and understanding I sense with you.

[027220]

2:33 - :58 "Darth Vader became 'such' an 'icon' in the first film, Episode 4, that that icon of evil sort of 'took over' everything, much more than I 'intended.' If it'd been '1' movie that 'wouldn't've' happened. He would've been revealed to be this pathetic character at the end of the movie. But now by adding Episodes 1, 2, & 3 people begin to 'see' the tragedy of Darth Vader. As - as what it was 'orginally' intended to be."

[472Colin]

@027220 Why did you write all that?

[027220]

@472Colin 'Cause a 'lot' of viewers don't take it 'seriously.'

[MrDavidFILM]

Are we actually to believe that Anakin the Ashole is Darth Vader... Long story short, Hayden was terrible miscasted

[benjebb]

no one who is evil thinks of themselves as evil , they always believe there doing good wow awesome and so true but who is to say what is right and what is wrong ? is there even a right and wrong

[eragon98031]

@benjebb thats exactly why no one who is evil thinks of themselves as evil because if you're evil and you dont know it, then evil people are not evil to you but the evil people are the good people? confused? :) yeah, me too

[Tempe1962]

@benjebb There is but this truth: Love and absence of love.

[AFTprods]

If you pause at 1:44 you can see "Starkiller" :o

[sinnvollproductions]

@AFTprods That's because Lucas at first intended to name Luke "Luke Starkiller" insted of "Skywalker".

[MrSimpleplain]

George lucas is very underestimated he is a great director and story teller and has a very interesting imagination for such movies star wars indiana jones ect... we need more directors like him hell it wouldnt hurt to add more star wars films about all the small things in the films and make sequels

[Yandrak991]

@benjebb @Cataclysm135 the books, games and comics are actually considered canon. most of the storylines are supervised by Lucas himself and he allows them or not to do certain things. anyways the sith in the academy and later sith are either secret organizations that palpatine didnt know existed or new sith that come up through their own training.

[darthgoku135]

George Lucas really is one of the greatest story-tellers ever. I think it is wrong for people to say that he is a bad director, cause I thought he did a good job directing the original Star Wars at least. I for one love all six Star Wars films. Even though the prequels had some mistakes in them, I still enjoy their overall stories, which is what I enjoy the most in a movie. Thank you George Lucas for creating one of the greatest sagas in film history.

[vinnielegostudios]

@darthgoku135 Yeah. Bit I don't understand why George Lucas make the Prequels almost relate to Obi Wan's Back story and make Yoda his master and leave the idea of Anakin falls into a volcano.

[vinnielegostudios]

@darthgoku135 Yeah. But I don't understand why George Lucas make the Prequels almost relate to Obi Wan's Back story and make Yoda his master and leave the idea of Anakin falls into a volcano.

[GoblinsnHobbits]

@darthgoku135

He treats his actors like shit. Listen to them talk about their experiances with him.

he's great when he gets feedback (origional trilogy) but when he's deified and given full control, well, you get Episode II...

[JediLadyMisty]

@darthgoku135 Amen my friend, amen!

[stfwho]

@darthgoku135 its not that the prequels had some mistakes in them... its that they completely raped the series and were god awful and full of horrible ideas from Lucas... Baby Greedo? Flying R2D2? JAR JAR BINKS? I will forever hate Lucas for making me aware that Jar Jar Binks is the one responsible for the creation of the Galactic Empire and the extinction of the Jedi. He was a racist clown cartoon! But I will stop ranting at you now.

[benjebb]

so he destroy the sith but there are more out there like on jedi academy, so i dont get it ?

[Erikootje]

@benjebb

wtf are you talking about? he wiped out the everybody in the jedi academy! So there are no jedi left!

[benjebb]

@Erikootje im not on about jedi im on about sith if he wiped out all the sith in return of the jedi then were do the sith come from in the game jedi academy!

[Cataclysm135]

That's called a game and George Lucas didn't write the story. It's not exactly canon. People may say it is and LucasFilm may have given permission to make the game, but I don't consider "Jedi Academy" as part of the original story, or any of the stupid books people wrote.

[sum41rockstomuch]

good video to bad not much people cant see this as much as i would lke
