what's up everybody? Today I'm here to talk about the prequels. Everyone loves
to make fun of the prequels, especially because they did not live up to the
standards of the originals. But let me tell you one thing, the originals is what
sparked the magic to begin with. It was in 77 that we were introduced to this
fantastic universe, with new and fresh characters, with innovating visuals and
with a story that was truly heartfelt. The movie was the perfect escapism.
Truthfully nothing can be compared to the originals. That said I have a huge
respect for George Lucas, I've always had because he's the genius behind it all. It
was because of him that we got this fantastic world called the Star Wars. Now
here is the question: Do I hate the prequels? No, no, no ..... I don't hate
the Prequels, I never hated the prequels. Obviously there were nothing close to
the originals, but I was able to overlook the awful CGI and even that annoying
character, Jar Jar Binks, because I was connected to the story. To me, even though
there weren't perfect films, they still felt like Star Wars, and I was able to
connect to it. And now I'm gonna share with you 10 things that I liked about
the prequels, because I thought they got a few things right. Number one the
fighting! oh my gosh we got to see the Jedi's in action, choreography and
fighting and so many lightsaber fights I thought that was super entertaining.
After all lightsabers is one of the best things in Star Wars so I thought the
prequels did a good job in showing the Jedi fighting styles we had plenty of it
one of the things that we hear a lot on the on the original system Jedi
Oh Wars and all these things that these powerful masters used to be so to me to
get to see the Jedi in action it was super cool so that's one of the things
that I enjoyed about the figures that leads also to my second thing that I
really enjoyed about the prequels which is to see the world of the Jedi we not
only got to see the Jedi in action but we also got to see the Jedi Council the
Jedi Temple we got to see like their training we got to learn a little bit
more about their philosophy and their way of living got to learn that role in
maintaining peace in the galaxy we also learn exciting different colors of light
sabers you know Master Windu for instance of her whole lightsaber and we
also got to learn about the downfall of the Jedi when Palpatine execute order 66
now that leads also to the third thing that I really enjoyed watching in the
prequels and that is puppeting Wow wasn't his character fascinating to
watch his incredible patient and intelligent scheme to take control fold
even the Jedi who was supposed to protect the galaxy his manipulation of
Anakin Skywalker was so thought-out he was smart enough to take advantage of
Anakin sphere and persuade him to the dark side I was always very intrigued by
the Emperor and I really enjoyed learning a little bit about his
background and how he actually build the entire empire with the help of Anakin
Skywalker truly a plan of evil did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth
Plagueis the wise number for Padme I loved learning about Luke and Leia's
mom I thought she was a strong female character who was not only a queen at
the age of 14 but after she also became a senator I believe she would have been
very proud or how Leia and Luke turned out and you know what I don't think she
died of a broken heart I think he was Palpatine I might be wrong I think it
was poverty because that way he would have full control over manipulative
Darth Vader because he would also have his full attention now that she's out of
the picture number five is Anakin Skywalker what I
loved learning about his origin story I loved this character I wish he was
introduced more as a teenager not as a boy but for some reason George Lucas had
that in mind he wanted to introduce him as a child and I don't have any problem
with it but I I would have preferred to see him as a teenager but even though he
was introduced as a child I thought that it was very interesting to learn how he
actually becomes Darth Vader and the fond memory I also have of the prequels
when I was watching with my dad he said that boy that little boy is Darth Vader
and I was having an argument with him saying there's no way that's Darth Vader
and he was like yes that little boy's Darth Vader and he took me a while to
believe that that was Darth Vader I thought it was very interesting to learn
about his origin story more and particularly to learn about his fear of
losing those that are close to him and also to learn about his weak points he's
arrogant and he has a lust for power which ultimately led him to his downfall
I thought his fight with Colby then you just it was truly heartbreaking
his mind was just so corrupted that he failed to choose the right path and
turned against his friend and his own wife
I really enjoyed when obi-wan turns to him and say you were my brother Anakin
you're supposed to destroy the Sith not join him yeah that phrase always got to
me and I was very connected to the character so yeah that's one of the
things that I like about the prequels that all also leads to number six which
is obi-wan Kenobi how awesome was to see the younger version of obi-wan Kenobi he
was really the right cast and he was one of the best things in the prequel you
know I love that we got to see him being a pod one becoming a master in himself
the other thing that I thought it was really cool is that obi-wan has always
this sense of authority and that was also portrayed in the prequels through
the performance of the or McGregor I absolutely loved his relationship with
anarchy and how like they would bicker at each other and be really friends and
save each other's life I thought obi-wan was a great role model - Aniki man it
was truly sad to me when he turned against him but one of the things that
obi-wan failed to do is to spot the darkness in Anakin and reach out to him
in time maybe if he had noticed that earlier things could have been turned
around but again then we wouldn't have Darth Vader's so yeah I guess things had
to go the way they went and I'd also thought that though my god
that fight that he has it that the turd I've dissolved with Anakin Skywalker
though they use the force and then lightsaber than before is the lightsaber
that really got me excited I remember I was like
I had the time of my life watching that scene so that's another reason why I
have fond memories of paprika's number 7 the other thing I really enjoyed the new
prequels is the soundtrack when you think John Williams can come up with
something new he always surprises us I thought that the music of the score
involving voices as well as the Star Wars teams that we are so used to it was
pretty cool it really added to the action scenes obviously he's a master on
what he does and even though the visuals of the prequels are not very good so
there's too much CGI so I didn't think that visually the movies not very
beautiful I do one of the things that I love about the originals is the
practical effects so I think that really was the worst part in the prequels
however the music really got me connected to the action scenes number
eight Master Yoda I loved watching Yoda in the prequels what do we know about
Yoda in the originals that he was a great actor he plays this persona in
front of look where he's being all kind of fooled man but he's nothing like that
he's actually a true master Jedi but we just got to see a little bit of that and
I loved that inner Creakle's we actually got to meet the real Yoda and how he
used to be at the time the Jedi I had loads of fun watching Yoda in his
lightsaber fights I used to play that with my brothers at home as well because
even though he looked sometime to look a little bit silly with the whole flipping
and thing I still thought wow it's master we all do it with a lightsaber
that is so cool all the Jedi they have different
fighting style and I thought it was so fun to watch Master Yoda fighting style
obviously he's so small that how is he gonna use the lightsaber he's not doing
the flips so I thought that was unexpected and I really had fun watching
that and the other thing that I thought he was cool is that we get to learn how
he ends up in Dagobah system number 9 pardon me and
because I thought I'm a romantic okay don't don't blame me even though the
acting was not very solid especially on the second episode by the third I think
it was a little bit better but I still thought the story itself was very
compelling I loved how they got involved and I
think he was kind of poetic how he went against the Jedi and fell in love with
Padme you know which is against the Jedi Code that also led me to another
question which is how stupid could the Jedi Lee have a young unstable handsome
Jedi watch over a beautiful Queen I mean how could they not see them getting
involved that always blew my mind how could no one figure it out that those
two are gonna get together come on everyone could have seen that coming
it's just definitely a recipe for disaster but I don't know sometimes I
like to think that the force blind into Jedi so they could actually allow Anakin
Padme to fall in love because we needed to have Luke and Leia so again putting
the lame love scenes apart and the terrible dialogue I still think that the
story itself it's very compelling so I enjoyed that and finally number 10 Vader
is born my gosh I got chills when I saw him back on screen
of course forget about the know that was definitely a little bit seen
but Darth Vader is just the coolest feeling ever
I really appreciated seeing him back on screen I was deeply moved by his fall to
the dark side and I understood his reasoning even though I don't agree I
still understand the reasons why he decided to you know fall to the dark
side he was such an easy target - Palpatine and I think that the Jedi fail
miserably in reaching out to Anakin in time and help
you know anyways again we needed to have Vader so that was that was gonna happen
regardless but I was definitely very moved I really enjoyed episode three you
really got to me you know when he was falling down her knees and pledging his
allegiance to that evil Emperor I could even though like if you feel my heart my
eyes with tears I was like ah did you believe that he's doing that what an
idiot at the same time he wasn't very honest about his life he was scared on
how the Jedi would treat him so he turned to the wrong person to advise how
sad so these are the reasons why I did not hate the prequels these are the
reasons that I actually go back and watch them I don't think that they were
masterpiece but I think they were necessary to the story because I really
wanted to know about how Darth Vader become Darth Vader I really wanted to
know and learn about the Jedi in the training and obi-wan and the Clone Wars
I wanted to know all of that so it's I believe that the prequels serve the
purpose the only thing that I think they failed miserably is just too much CGI
you know the direction of the actors were not very good so sometimes the
acting is not very solid but I think that has more to do with the direction
and the blocking of the actors then it is within the actors themselves because
you know Natalie Portman is a good actors and I've seen all the words of
hey Dina I didn't think he was bad and then had more to do with the directing
of the actors Dani had to do with the actors
and we also had Jar Jar which was an annoying character for the most part but
you know what I'll take charger over a rose Tikal and purple hair any time so
that's it guys this is the end of my video if you enjoyed this video please
