I have to say this was a very awesome step up from Episode I! I was honestly a little worried it would lean into the same cheesy tone as the last installment. But they really switched gears here, and it worked.The story deepened in a way that pulled me in emotionally again. Watching Anakin's inner conflict grow felt very real. His desire to love, to protect, to feel everything so deeply was both heartbreaking and extremely fascinating. And even though I know where it is all heading, there is something so tragic about witnessing how it begins. His downfall isn't rooted in hate, but instead how much he cares. That nuance hit me harder than I expected.Also, the lightsaber fights and effects??? YES. Absolutely delivered. Visually stunning, with real weight and intensity behind them. I found myself fully locked in during those scenes and watching Yoda get in on some of that action was epic!This chapter had so much more momentum, and now I seriously can't wait for Episode III. Bring on the heartbreak, the action, the unraveling... I'm here for it. Thank you for your support on Patreon!Relax and enjoy 🍿🌿LINK: https://youtu.be/55LkfVYtYOII watched this on Disney Plus

Got my answer, from the loki comment section 😅 LETS GOOO

Russell Rutigliano

This movie is action packed and it’s one of the best positives for the movie. I’m glad you enjoyed episode 2. It’s hard for me to like episode 2 cause of the cheesy romance, I’m sorry but George Lucas just didn’t know how to write a romance story and that’s what this is at the end of the day so it’s what makes it one of my least liked films in this franchise BUT saying that part of me hopes someday you react to the animated Clone Wars series cause it’s bleeping awesome!!! The animated series makes episode 3 hit even harder. For someone who doesn’t like flying Obi-Wan just willingly yeeted himself out a window and catches a droid for a ride! Okay then LOL. “Why did her face turn into that lizard type thing” cause that’s what race she actually is. That was a disguise so when she died her appearance changed. That bounty Hunter said Murashani Sleemo which is Huttese for “Bounty Hunter Slimeball”. So Padme isn’t crazy older than Anakin she is if I remember correctly 5 years older than him cause in Phantom Menace she was 14!!! and now here she is 24 while Anakin was 9 in ep 1 and is now 19 here. Ummm so the silhouette on Luke’s home of Anakin having Vader’s shadow was a happy accident! It was not super imposed or done with CGI it is practical!

Dave Olden

Okay! Let’s do this! 🙏

David Fürstenberg

I know this won't work anyway, but I think you should watch The Clone Wars series before reacting to Episode 3. It takes place between Episodes 2 and 3, and it's a good addition to the prequel trilogy. I would recommend watching the series in chronological order, since individual storylines are spread across seasons. There are lists online for watching the series chronologically, or I could give you my own list if you prefer. But of course, this is just a suggestion.

Russell Rutigliano

Well both of us have said we hope it happens someday so maybe there will be more people who want her to watch The Clone Wars too. I really do think it makes stuff hit harder in episode 3 if you watch it before.

David Fürstenberg

Exactly. Some moments in episode 3 definitely hit harder this way.

Russell Rutigliano

And yeah I know it would add another TV series to the docket where we already have two going but they are what 23 min eps each (Except for special episodes) so she could watch like 3-4 eps at a time and it would be done quicker that way? I know people who do react to the animated series do them in chunks.

Richard

Yup that’s right, Anakin and Padme getting it on. Bet you didn’t see that coming lol. A very specific question for you Kali: if your man came to you and said he had slaughtered woman and children, how would you react? Padme’s reaction definitely seemed very understated compared to what you would expect. I suppose the only way she could justify it was if they viewed the Sandpeople (Tusken Raiders) as “sub-human” and therefore not worthy of the moral compass. Still pretty horrifying, and it would be horrifying in general to view ANY group of living creatures that way. Some cringe dialogue in this one for sure, but at least we see a lot of the seeds planted that would lead to Anakin’s downfall. Not getting the respect he thinks he deserves from Obi-Wan, mistrust both for and from the council, and of course his pain and rage over what happened to his mom. In this one we continue the long-standing tradition of someone losing their right hand to go along with “I have a bad feeling about this”. Stuff is gonna hit the fan next episode! Excited for you to see it.

Dude Longcouch

The Anakin / Padme dialogue leaves me in a cringe-coma but other than that, I suppose this movie is overall better than the first one. It's fun to see Obi-Wan in full swing as a Jedi Knight and see the continuous story of Anakin. And I will say, that moment when Yoda pulls his lightsaber was like a top 5 all-time theater moment. People went absolutely fuckin nuts when that happened, and the vibes were immaculate. Next one is easily the best though.

Grayson Vestel

Loved it, and I love this episode. I don't think she has said anything about the show, right?

ButtercupsTrueLove

Kali was able to follow the many twists and turns in the story much better than I did when I watched Episode II for the first time. I understood the budding romance but the whole clone army, Jango Fett, Trade Federation, Count Dooku, and Darth Sidious alliance was a hot mess. I saw Rose Byrne (Dormé, in Episode II) as a guest on a late night talk show a few years ago and she admitted that she was confused about the order of the "Star Wars" trilogies when she watched them at home with her kids. Her husband, Bobby Cannavale, had to break the news to her that she was in the prequels. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHcJN5D5yXQ&t=259s

Mayday

I think most people would agree that the dialogue for the Prequels aren't the best, especially when it comes to the romance plot, but this part of the timeline is my absolute favorite. For Palpatine's name, as of right now in the timeline he's known as "Chancellor" Palpatine. He won't be called the Emperor until the Republic turns into the Empire. And Darth Sideous is his evil Sith name.

Kristoffer

Kali i know you love watching things and playing games, in release order, i therefor suggest if you are to continue you're Star Wars journey, you should begin with The Clone Wars animated Show after Episode 3. The Clone Wars Animated Show, is the first Star Wars "media" made after episode 3, and is SOOOOO GOOD. It really dives into alot of our main characters even more in between episode 2 and 3, plus the highlight are the clones. They delve into the Clones so much and some of my favourtie characters in star wars are even some of the Clones due to this. Its important to watch since they do not remotely get explored enough in the movies, therefor you will almost have no knowledge of them if you dont watch it. Edit: And a familiar face will also appear in the show, and dare i say that face is prob a top 3 character in Star Wars due to this show...

Scott S

Palpatine is the general term that is used. With what was said during the outro, even more looking forward to Episode 3. Very fun watch-along, even though episode 2 is my least favorite of the prequels.

I.Have.No.Band

uh! as I thought I really didn't remember much of this one... Usually romance hits me in the feels, and not in a great way.. I tend to be envious and kinda sad, but here I'm not sure how it was managed but it just irritated me.. ( a little like sand would tbh..) It felt very.. very unnatural. multiple times it felt like we were just witnessing a daydreamed child's idea of love coming to reality.. And that actually made me wonder if (and that's quite dark if it's verifiable..) Anakin could have used the force to an extent, most likely unknowingly, to corrupt padmé's love and turn it into an attraction that mirrors his.. in my mind, it would make this romance more interesting, and meaningful, but obviously more tragic as well.. (EDIT : I just realized "used the force" makes it sound like it could be an intentional thing, or like it was a "jedi mind trick" (which most probably would not work on padmé since she is QUITE wise and intelligent..) but I was thinking more around the line of ""the disturbance" that surrounds him, as a powerful destabilized and confused vector could make things fall, ever so unnaturally, into place.. eventually, my whole point is, I'm in denial that Padmé could fall like that for him and maybe I'm trying to cope idk 😭) lots of great establishing scenes in this one though, and I agree the lightsabres fights are now quite exquisite to watch! I've read (but I'm not sure that's verified because a lot of the "lore" of christopher lee feels straight up like a mythical saga) that the tilted saber hilt was more or less inspired by one of charlemagne's swords, whom Lee is allegedly a descendant of..? hm.. real or not, that's a fire design =| I'm now certain I remember the third movie even less than this one except for one scene that's quite unforgettable.. so I simply cannot wait c:

I.Have.No.Band

oh also, it goes so fast but it's quite uncanny to see what's essentially the birth of boba fett in this arena.. as A kid I was such a fanatic about his ship (which I'm pretty sure is the very same his father had..) and I had a toy of it.. I'm sad I lost it :c

Star Wars: The Clone Wars {2008) next before Star Wars: Episode III

KJ

A lot to unpack with this movie. I *really* like the first hour which is basically a detective Noir mystery with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker on the case to uncover the plot to assassinate Senator Amidala. We kind of see the Jedi's role in The Republic as that of a police service - but more akin to the chivalrous Knights of old. I do find the wrong romance written for Anakin and Padme really rough going. I'm not sure if it was George Lucas's intention for Anakin to come across as a bit of a pathetic incel but it did for me. I do buy that Anakin is incredibly gifted as a Jedi on perhaps a genius level and that it is childhood trauma and arrested development that is his biggest obstacle, not helped by Palpatine filling his head with bad ideas and fueling his ego. As for Palpatine there are clearly parallels with dictators of the past. Hitler, before he became fuhrer and wannabe Emperor of the world, was first a Chancellor in the government, just like Palpatine. The supposed genetic perfection and purity of the Clone Army is very Third Reich-esque. Even German soldiers were known as Storm Troopers. Julius Caesar was granted emergency powers by the Roman senate and never gave those powers back, turning the Republic into an Empire. So yeah, the parallels are clear. And finally, as we've discussed before, John Williams score elevates these movies to the next level. I get goosebumps too! 😂

McShades

I saw you missed the connection between Jango Fett and his young son Boba and The Empire Strikes back with the Bounty Hunter who caught Han Solo. Nice catch with Vader's Shadow, i missed that myself until you pointed it out. I know a few viewers recommended watching The Clone Wars before watching episode 3, but I would recommend against that, only because the vibe of Anakin is consistent through all 3 movies, but in the animated show The Clone Wars he is portrayed as lot more mature than the movies. I do recommend watching The Clone Wars after Revenge of the Sith (episode 3), it's an excellent animated show that fills in a lot of the lore, plus the episodes are only like 20 mins long, so you could watch 4-5 episodes at a time.

kaliwali

I definitely felt that action energy throughout Episode II and it was definitely one of my favorite parts about it! The ambiance was really nice also ✨I definitely hear you on the romance tho lol. There were a few times where I'm sure you could see my face like "what... what does that even mean?" lol. It's like there's something trying to land emotionally, but it just kinda floats around there instead lol Obi-Wan yeeting himself out of the window sent me lol. That whole opening sequence had such chaotic energy and I loved it for that! And yeah I realized that she was a shapeshifter once Obi-Wan mentioned it to Anakin. Made sense after that. Very cool that the Vader shadow was actually not planned tho! I thought they did that on purpose lol And yeah! So many people have recommended Clone Wars animates series. I definitely plan on watching it :)

kaliwali

Thank you for the thoughtful suggestion! I've definitely heard from a few that The Clone Wars adds a lot of depth to the prequel trilogy, especially leading into Episode 3. It's super tempting to jump in now- but I've decided to watch through all the films first and then circle back to the series so I can experience the main saga as it was originally released. I've heard from a few in the Discord that they're watching it in chronological order! I think it's interesting that even The Clone Wars has it's own various order to watch it in. Seems like a theme in this series haha. Excited to dive into it eventually though! 💛

kaliwali

Lol yeah the Anakin and Padme romance escalated so quickly 😂🤣 and a bit awkwardly in all honesty And wow that's a good and intense question ha. Honestly, if someone I loved confessed to slaughtering an entire village I'd be horrified, obviously. I get that she sees Anakin's pain and trauma, but the way she accepts it was confusing for a minute. But maybe she knows what these sandpeople were capable of and that softened the story? But it did have me questioning what kind of worldview she must have or maybe even how much she is in denial. As for the cringe dialogue? Yeaaaah. Some of the romance lines had me questioning if George Lucas has even known true love or only pain lol. But yes like you said, the character work underneath is still solid. I loved the continuation of the classic traditions like with the "bad feeling" line and limb loss lol. Keeps the thread going throughout all of the films and that makes it very cool.

kaliwali

Hahaha cringe-coma is a perfect way to describe it lol. The fireplace scene was tragic 🤣😂 But yeah, even with the awkward romance, I totally agree that this one felt stronger overall. The pacing, the action, and seeing Obi-Wan in full Jedi mode was very satisfying. The saber fights have been picking up too and I'm totally here for it! Very excited for Episode 3! See you there!

kaliwali

Glad you enjoyed this one as much as I did! I can't wait for Episode 3! I'll be watching Clone Wars at some point, but no definite date right now. I'd love to get through the films first and then circle back :)

kaliwali

Thank you! I was hanging on by a thread at a few points lol. There's soooo much going on behind the scenes with the clone army, the Separatists, Dooku, and Sidious working in the shadows. It was definitely a lot to absorb on a first watch, but makes a second one very fun! That Rose Byrne story is hilarious 🤣 I honestly get it. If it wasn't for this community I would have watched them way out of order myself. See you in Episode 3!

kaliwali

Yeaaaaaah, the romance dialogue was rough lol. But I can absolutely see why this part of the timeline is a favorite! There's soooo much in it. Political tension, layered character development, epic saber fights. It was awesome watching all the pieces move into place. Thanks for the breakdown on Palpatine/Sidious naming! That helps lol. I guess as long as I don't call him Counselor I'm good. 😅

kaliwali

I am convinced now that John Wiliams is untouchable! His score elevates eeeverything, even when the dialogue or pacing gets shaky (or awkward lol). I'm constantly amazed by how much emotion and storytelling he brings through just his music.

kaliwali

I love your enthusiasm for The Clone Wars! A few others have also seemed very excited about it. I heard it really expands on the clones and brings them to life as characters which sounds awesome. That said, I do plan on sticking with the movies for now and then circling back to The Clone Wars later on. I want to experience the full arc of the films first, kind of like how audiences saw everything unfold in real time. But your comment and others definitely have me excited to get into it when the time comes!

kaliwali

Thank you for the clarification on Palpatine's title lol. It's interesting to see how he transitions from Chancellor to Emperor and it makes the buildup feel even more intense. I totally get that Episode II isn't everyone's favorite. That's how I feel about Episode I right now lol. But I'm really excited to see how Episode II wraps everything up. It sounds like things are about to get really intense and I can't wait!

kaliwali

I totally get where you're coming from with the romance feeling off lol. It did come across as super unnatural and kinda forced at times. Like it was written through a very particular, and somewhat dark, lens. Your idea about Anakin's force presence subtly influencing Padme's feels interesting and honestly adds a whole new tragic layer to their story. It makes me think about how much of their connection might be shaped by destiny, darkness, or confusion rather than actual choice. Wow. I feel like that mysterious "disturbance" around Anakin describes him perfectly. Everyone feels it, but they don't know why. It fits so well with the way the Force seems to have a will of its own in this saga. Sometimes it gently guides it. Sometimes it pulls apart what should be whole. The lightsaber fighters were my favorite part! I was so impressed watching those duels unfold. They're practically storytelling and the choreography is beautiful.

kaliwali

Excited for Episode 3 now! See you there!

Kristoffer

You should definitely do what you think is best! But Star Wars audiences did first experience this The Clone Wars after episode 3, you see it was made in 2008 first, the next movie was not until 2015, just saying 🤷‍♂️🫡

kaliwali

The first hour did feel like a classic detective noir lol. Obi-Wan and Anakin working the case gave the film a really cool vibe. You're right- The Jedi as a chivalrous police force really adds depth to the Republic world-building! I get what you mean and totally agree about the romance feeling off. It was super awkward and sometimes Anakin did feel a bit like a frustrated, socially awkward guy. It made it hard to stomach. But your point about his genius-level Jedi gifts being overshadowed by trauma and Palpatine's manipulation makes so much sense. It's such a tragic setup. The historical parallels you drew are fascinating and also very true. That shadow of real-world dictatorships definitely adds a chilling layer to his rise and the Republic's fall. The Julius Caesar comparison especially resonates! Power can corrupt a system from within. And yesss, John Williams' score. No matter the ups, downs, awkwardness, epicness- the music always hits those goosebump moments for me.

kaliwali

Totally missed the connection! I even remember thinking in my head Fett sounded familiar lol. But there was so much going on in this film that I think I was at max brain level lol. Such a cool connection that adds more layers to the universe, for sure! I appreciate your advice about The Clone Wars timing and plan on doing that. It just makes more sense to watch the movies now and circle back to the show! I'm looking forward to it when I get there, tho!

M1 Maz

Well you were looking for more action and this one definitely delivered! I loved getting to see the large battle between the clones and droids, on a scale that we really haven't seen before. And of course, seeing so many light sabers in the coliseum, and the fight with Dooku were awesome! Especially Yoda. Since Christopher Lee is in this, I'm going to draw some parallels haha. Jumping into these prequels feels a lot like watching The Hobbit series, where suddenly they start off very silly and with more kid-like humor. But underneath it all is such a deep story that's building. And I love that this one took things into a much more serious realm. Now I'm so excited for Episode 3! Probably my favorite one, for a bunch of different reasons This is also why I love prequels. Stepping into them knowing already what happens in the future, gives us that false sense of knowing what's going to happen. But what we're not ready for is *how* it happens. And that's where all the emotional power comes from. Just like going into RDR2 after the first game, there's just so many layers getting peeled back that we weren't expecting, and it makes for such a great experience Just have to also mention the sound design again real quick, because you know me, and you know I always will haha. I just love how everything has it's own unique little sounds. Did the ships all need to have their own special exhaust notes? Did all the beasts have to make such unique sounds, like the green 8 legged thing in the coliseum and it's high pitched screams? Probably not, but that's what makes this world so magical, and just feel so vast. Love it! And also you called it, the sound of that sonic grenade that Jango Fett's ship throws out is so amazing hahaha

PrincessLayup

The prequals get better with each one in my opinion. Episode three is by far my favorite Star Wars movie. I'm so curious where you would rank it after you watch it. I'd love to hear your rankings for them like you did with the MCU characters.

Wil Castillo

I remember when Episode II was in theaters for the first time. The movie posters read: "A Jedi shall not know anger, nor hatred, nor love." I think this movie is better than Episode I, but I think the next one, Episode III, is even better.

Bernie Zwicky

I hope you’re going to watch the rest of the Star Wars movies, including Rogue One. They all are a part of the overall storyline and are very entertaining to watch…the last few are among my favorites. 😊

BigBrain69

Ì generally like this one too, but the romance is so weirdly written, it's hard to get over. Anakin is literally a walking red flag. I just don't buy that Padme would fall in love with him after he mentions how he slaughtered women and chldren. Like normally you would call the jedi council and go like: "uh excuse me, my bodyguard is mentally unstable, could you pls send me new one?" Also the creepy stares Anakin gave her just was sooooo WEIRD, It always makes me cringe and think "RUN PADME". But otherwise the action and fights are really cool, so I still enjoy most of it. I also will just say as probably 10000 other people have mentioned that the Clone Wars series is very recommended after you watch Episode 3. Although it is for kids it is surprisingly mature and we see great character development for our favorite characters. There is some boring filler Episodes in there since there are 7 Seasons but I think it is definitely worth a watch.

Russell Rutigliano

Yeah after thinking about it it’s probably best to watch ep 3 and then do The Clone Wars cause as much as I love that show it did come out after Revenge of the Sith so it makes sense to circle back to it. Season 7 of the show alone is worth watching it’s some of the best Star Wars content especially episodes 9-12. Idk when we would fit it in but I also recommend the show Star Wars Rebels which takes place between episodes 3 and 4.

rubberkidney

the counselor, you know hes just behind the scenes, counseling people on things and gathering his power.

rubberkidney

if you watch anything you should watch the original 2d animation by gendy tartakovsky(power puff girls, dexters lab) its what they based the later 3d show off of, and it takes place between ep 2 and 3 and its actually awesome because it ends right when episode 3 starts and adds an awesome story for that period, probably some of the best star wars since the ot, never really cared to much for the 3d show, but it seems decent enough i guess. the original though is a masterpiece.

Kristoffer

The 3d is a masterpiece too come on now.

Robert da Spruce

Nice reaction Kali! I’m glad you liked this one better than ep.1 Yoda’s lightsaber fight is everything! I remember getting goosebumps when I saw it for the first time! Definitely have some thoughts about Anakin and Padme’s romance. But I think I’ll save those until after you watch the last episode of the prequels Looking forward to the next film!

kaliwali

Ahhh yes! This movie really kicked up the action and scale in a way that felt like such a huuge shift from Episode I. And in all the right ways, honestly. The Coliseum sequence with all those sabers igniting at once!? YES. And seeing Yoda flipping around with that lightsaber was sooooo epic. Just for him to pick up his cane slowly and hobble over afterwards 🤣😂 What a legend. I love the parallel you made to The Hobbit! That whimsical-to-weighty tone shift is such a great comparison. The humor can definitely be goofy, but there is such real emotion still underneath it all. Especially now that things are shifting into full darkness and getting more and more serious. I could actually feeeeel the energy in this episode and I just know that it's going to explode in Episode III. Your hype has me even more excited now! I got some SERIOUS reaper vibes with the sonic grenade scene 🤣😂 And I definitely agree! The sound design just keeps getting better and better! I can't wait for the next one :)

kaliwali

I can totally see that after Episode II! I was a little nervous after Episode I's silliness and whimsical nature. But this one brought all of the emotion and action back into it and I loooved it for that! Can't wait for Episode III And I'd love to do a ranking afterwards! That sounds like fun :)

kaliwali

I agree, I loved this one much more than Episode I and it definitely has me excited for III now. And that's an awesome movie poster quote 👀✨

kaliwali

DEFINITELY planning on watching all of the Star Wars movies I can! I'm excited even if there are a few duds in between. I still love the world building and storytelling in these and they honestly keep getting better and better.

kaliwali

Hahaha yes, I was definitely making some crazy faces during the Anakin-Padme love scenes lol. The romance was so strangely written and it swings between intense, awkward and downright concerning a few times 😅 There were honestly some HUGE red flags between the both of them. But someone else mentioned that Anakin could have Padme responding to the force that he is inadvertently using against her to keep her sucked into him and honestly.... that makes a lot of sense and I feel bad for Padme. But YES the action was great. The scale of it all is so epic and I really enjoyed the second half of this movie! It was super entertaining despite the odd dialogue here and there. Thank you for the Clone Wars rec also! A ton of people in here have mentioned its worth a watch so I'll be circling back around to it eventually once I get through the films :)

kaliwali

Yoda's lightsaber fight was EPIC haha. I definitely got goosebumps and was glued to the entire scene! I loved the action and shots in this one with the darkness and glowing sabers coming in lighting up their wielder's face. Soooo good. I also feel the same about the romance lol. It was... a little disturbing to say the least. But I'm still really excited for Episode III now!

Bernie Zwicky

For me, there weren’t any duds…hopefully you’ll feel the same after you watch them. You may want to watch Rogue One, before going into the rest of the movies, as it gives some insight into some of the previous movies, which I personally appreciated 😊

rubberkidney

he takes the counseling to the next level in 3. ultimate counseling power!

Russell Rutigliano

Hopefully you see this before you watch episode 3… I’d like to give the names of some of the Jedi that you see in episode 2. I’ll start at the 4:33 mark of the movie so in Chancellor Palpatine’s office the Jedi (Not Yoda or Mace) sitting in the chairs are Ki-Adi Mundi (The one with the cone shaped head lol), Plo Koon (The one with the mask on his face), and the one in the back is Kit Fisto (The one with the green tentacle hair LOL), during the arena battle there is one important Jedi and that’s the Greenish/blue lady with the two Tentacles for hair? and her name is Aayla Secura (Time code for her so you know what she looks like going into Episode 3 is 156:06 she’s right between Mace and Obi-Wan) Edit: Oooo actually there is one more important Jedi in the battle arena scene and that is Shaak Ti (Has a Red and white face with two tentacles/braids) who can be seen a couple times throughout the movie once being the Jedi high council chamber at 24:54 & again at 1:57:07 getting into one of the ships.

Kirill D.

I laughed so hard when you realized that Anakin must’ve had a love interest for Luke and Leia to exist. And of course, he somehow found the woman with the strongest pelvis in the galaxy (she took that fall from the pillar onto the back of that beast like it was nothing!).

Oliver Jayawant

Most of the Imperial Stormtroopers in the original trilogy are conscripted civilians. Most of the clones have been decommissioned and phased out after the fall of the Republic between episodes III and IV.

Hera Lux

I’ve seen this movie so many times now, yet one detail I missed was the shadow on Tatooine — so glad you pointed that out! One small detail you might have missed is that, after Anakin slays the Sand People and tells Padmé he hates them, it might be the first time the score plays the Darth Vader theme. In the animated series The Clone Wars, where Anakin’s dedication to justice and goodness is emphasized, this also happens a few times. That series takes place between Episode II and Episode III.

Padmé Amidala is five years older than Anakin Skywalker.
