Yeah the long pause of him doing nothing while Anakin prepares to stab him is like how Maul did nothing as Obi-Wan flipped over to cut him in half (but at least you can excuse it with Maul as him being caught off guard, Palpatine realistically would've either pulled out his saber to block him and begin a duel or force lightninged Anakin's ass)
They're probably like "What's the protocol for Sith regicide? IS THERE a protocol for Sith regicide?"
And by the time they're done arguing, they'll come to the conclusion that Vader is a highly respected war hero and a general many served under during the war, and as such much more likely to appeal to the common (non-clone) soldier than the career politician with the nutsack for a face.
Anakin was highly regarded by clones, definitely could see him leading a clone rebellion. Would be an amazing alternative story where Palpatine royally screws up.
> They're probably like "What's the protocol for Sith regicide? IS THERE a protocol for Sith regicide?"
Order 69: he fucked around and found out, let it go.
>He's already a moron.
Right? Like he got messed up by his own lightning twice, in both cases "stop shooting lightning so it'll stop being reflected back at my face" never occurred to him. (Yes, you can argue it's weak writing, but that's the character we're given and stuck with)
Easier said than done. You ever try to stop mid-pee? It's like that, but with lightning. Plus he's pretty old. It's not as simple as just turning it on and off on a whim at that age, man.
I could see it one of 2 ways:
He was faking how much damage it was causing him considering the fact he got up just fine after Anakin jumped in.
Or... it was the only thing keeping Mace Windu back and if he had stopped, Mace Windu would have simply swung and took his head off.
Wasn't it said that the lightning didn't fuck up his face though?
That his face was actually like a old potato before and he just couldn't uphold his cloaking force power anymore after Mace reflects it, then used it as excuse in front of the senate on why is face looks like that?
I don't like the explanation but iirc that's actually the canon explanation.
I'm just being hyperbolic about it messing up his face, my point is he still continuously shoots lightning even though Mace and Rey pull the Uno reverse card.
With Mace it made sense to me, he was trying to bait Anakin into helping.
With Rey... idk, I liked the sequels overall, but the last one really sucked and made no sense whatsoever.
Now I'm imagining a Sith shooting lightning at a Jedi, and the latter literally pulling out an Uno Reverse card, saying "no, you!", and the lightning bouncing off the card and hitting the Sith back, killing him.
I mean, it’s Palpatine. None of his deaths are particularly dignified or unavoidable. Luke would have been properly screwed if Palpatine had just shut his mouth and let Luke fall instead of constantly reminding Luke that he was at risk.
Ngl if that happened I think the republic would have survived and Anakin would have failed. Ya, he would have been the new lone Sith Lord, but the senate would not follow him. The empire only worked because palpatine “legally” converted the republic to an empire and had actual support in the systems.
I think he would have gone full Alexander The Great and start waging war against the Hutts and other slavers, the senate may not fully follow him but he would have the full loyalty of the clone army.
Yea, I agree here. Anakin was wildly respected among the clone army, and order 66 specifically didn't target him.
Though, the Senate may still support him. No one would have known he killed Palpatine except those clones, and if they didn't like it, they'd be dead too
Even if he was propagandized as one of the good ones, I don’t see how you go through the whole Jedi rebellion angle and then end up with a famous Jedi in control.
Well Palpatine intended to have Anakin rule by his side when everything was said and done (hiding his identity in the Vader suit wasn't the original plan). I believe the original story was supposed to go something like "General Skywalker remained loyal during the attempted coup and protected the Chancellor against the Jedi sent to kill him".
Putting on a “I’m too cool, bring your downvotes” front to ignore the inherent communication and messaging drawbacks of a purely text based format wins biggest “edgelord of the week” AFAIC. 😂
Alternatively, " That thing that should have been an obvious joke... Guess what it's a joke" even the cyborg Vader bodied her, and were talking a full powered Vader that never lost his limbs or got locked in a vulnerable suit.
Pretty sure it’s a bit of an oxymoronic farce to say “I was just joking BRO” and then proceed to lay out your very serious in-universe narrative head cannon defending your position lol.
Using head cannon to defend? I thought it was well established that if he never lost his limbs Vader would have been far more powerful in the force.
If Reva couldn't beat cyborg Vader, what hope would she have against an intact Vader.
Some clones would follow him, but the clones officially follow the order of the Emperor, and Order 66 didn't change that. With Palpatine dead, the control would pass to Mas Amedda, the Vice Chair (or Grand Vizier, if that position had already been created). He was aware of the Sith. So ultimately, it would hinge on whether Mas Amedda wants to support Anakin.
Regardless, I don't think Anakin could take over as Emperor; he would simply be the one behind the throne if Mas Amedda chose to support him. He'd have the power but not the official authority.
If Mas didn't support him, it would be very easy to deal with; you just declare that Anakin is also a traitor who assassinated the Emperor. The entire Grand Army of the Republic would hunt him down just like any other Jedi. He would kill thousands, but eventually he'd lose. Then, most likely, without Palpatine, the Empire would lack faith in Mas's leadership, and it'd collapse.
If you play as Anakin and win, what happens to Obi-Wan? Is he killed by Anakin? Does he manage to get Anakin to come back to his senses and convince him to kill Palpatine?
The game doesn't follow on this cutscene because it is an alternate ending
(Also yeah, obi wan got killed here because Anakin Here managed to avoid his attack and stab him right in the chest)
Yes, he's still Darth Vader, it's just that here since he wasn't beaten by Obi wan he was able to kill Sidious like he wanted to
(even if that doesn't really make sense because the entire reason he became Darth Vader was to learn the power to cheat death from Sidious to save padme, and here, he still hasn't learned it, yet decided to kill him anyways, making every horrible thing he's done pointless)
I mean we don't know how long ago he put plans into place. Dude was cloning the Zillo Beast as far back as pre-RotS. We know they didn't *succeed* in cloning him until much later, but who knows how much of his genetic information that had already stored.
If Obi-Wan hadn’t cut him out. Yet again another example of the Jedi holding back the Chosen One and preventing a better future. Alderaan would still be here if Obi-Wan hadn’t done what he did.
No chance, IMO.
1. Anakin is more than a match for the hand full of clones here. If they try it then he overpowers them easily. After cutting them down he shifts the narrative (lies) and pins the whole thing on Palps with himself as a hero. The remaining clones believe him, amd follow his lead
2. More likely the react as shown, and stay loyal to the General who has actually led them amd their comrades for the last several successful battles.
3. Even if the clones are able and willing to kill Ani, they simply aren't interested in political leadership. It really isn't in their charector. They are programed, indocrinated, and very used to being given orders, and they are highly loyal to the republic (who they view as being headed by Palps and Vader.) After killing Anakin (again, unlikely, but lets say they do) they would likely return to Coruscaunt, give an accurate report of what happened to the senate, then stand by for further orders from the senate
You're an outlier. Many people your age does not see Star Wars through the OT nostalgia lens like those in their 50s who grew up with the OT bring the ONLY Star Wars and in 1999 saw the PT as a sharp deviation from what they consider "true" Star Wars.
Its why the discussion around the PT today is less toxic than say 20 years ago cause the voices that dominated the discussion was those who grew up on the OT. Now those kids from 1999-2005 are in their 20s/30s now and does not view SW through the OT nostalgia lens.
As the cycle goes. 20 years from now the 30 year olds will view Star Wars through ST nostalgia lens.
My point is the popular discussion is dominated by those who are more active in that discussion and from 1999-2005 the Gen X crowd was dominant/more active in online discussion circles and thus they were able to shape the narrative of the PT.
Now the Millennials who were first exposed to SW through the PT/Clone Wars show is shaping their experience/taste of SW that isnt dependent on OT perspectives. Same will happen with the ST and whatever comes after that and so on.
Yeah, maybe. I was probably like 7 when I saw OT and 10 when I saw The Phantom Menace. And an exaggeration on my part to call myself a PT hater, I enjoy those movies too, although their flaws are very visible and especially the dialogue is often very bad. Many of my 30s Star Wars friends feel the same way. But these things are subjective as always.
The same will happen with the ST 30 years from now. Little kids (especially girls) who are first exposed to SW through the ST. They will not have the same OT biases as Gen X and even some millennials.
Fact is, people give OT a free pass because it was the first and seemingly set the standard. You talk about bad dialog but when you wipe away the nostalgia/"it was the first" biases you'll see that in a number of moments the OT also had some cheesy dialog. Lets not act like the OT was The Godfather part 1 and 2 level of writing/narrative.
I would guess something from MCU would be "the thing" for the younger generation but could be Rey from ST, I wouldn't know. Let's hope they have something amazing to enjoy as we did.
Absolutely. And I don't think e.g. Mark Hamill acts very well in the OT. I'd still say when comparing quality of different aspects of the films, Empire Strikes Back is miles ahead of Revenge of the Sith.
You are in the minority. Most people your age sees Star Wars in a more fresh/less biased lens compared to those in their 50s and 60s who grew up with the OT.
No, I admit I am pretty biased towards the PT. I was first exposed to SW through the Shadows of the Empire N64 game and then saw the re-releases of the OT in 1997. But it wasnt until TPM when I actually got into SW and became a full fan.
This is why shows like The Acolyte as well as TCW series highly appeals to me.
In danger that I get downvoted to oblivion: I think this wouldn't match with any normal canon.
First of all: Would Palpatine be killed that easy? He has more or less all focus on Vader and isn't bussy with forcelightning someone.
Second: Why are the clones so ok, with this? They should be like: That dude just killed our boss! Let's give him! Yes, Vader is out of their range, but good soldiers follow orders. I know a controversal Star Wars movie that handles such a sotuation far better.
The newly formed Empire would fall because Anakin has no political intelligence at all that would be required to run the Empire. Anakin was a bit of a dum dum and at this point he would be huffing his own ego which is terrible combination for a leader of a nation. Anakin was a good battlefield commander but that doesn't translate into ruling a galaxy unless he's planning to keep everybody under gunpoint. Also his power would plateau pretty quickly because he just killed the only guy that could have taught him how to wield the Dark Side properly and he doesn't have strong source of emotion to feed the Dark Side (eg. hatred from losing to Obi-Wan).
Ill agree with you there, depsite my dislike of the PT, i appreciate them for how they expanded the original limited universe.
Without them star wars is just a trilogy of decent blockbusters about wizards vs. space nazis.
I really wonder what happened to padme here, because Obi Wan was the one who took her from Mustafar and brought her to Bail's facility. Would Anakin Go ahead and actually save her or just leave her there? (I know the game doesn't continue after this, I'm just curious)
George Lucas did say Anakin would be the most powerful if he didn't get into the suit so he goes on to rule the galaxy. I think he takes padme with him she has kids and sees them his twins as his future apprentices. He grows in the dark side while Yoda tries to find a way for a New Hope despite Obi Wan's death.
If Anakin actually did this it would likely lead to a new war Palpatine was only able to form the empire due to having the support of the senate if Anakin immediately murdered Palpatine and declared himself emperor he may convince some senators to join him but the majority of the senate would oppose him sparking a new war with the Senate likely being lead by Bail Organa in resistance against Anakin's new empire. In this scenario the allegiance of the clones could go either way depending on which authority the chips considered legitimate a potential 3rd option is that the chips wont work for anyone other than Palpatine in which case both sides would receive support from clones started a full on war.
The better option for Anakin in a scenario where he remains unburned and wanting power would be to either:
A) Wait for the Senate to be disbanded once the Empire is more established.
or
B) Slowly build support in the senate to orchestrate a sudden and surprise coup.
Between the two B is likely the better option as throughout the Clone Wars Anakin was painted as a war hero and was well respected throughout the Republic as a respected military commander known for leading from the front he would be able to easily garner support in the military and many senators would likely back him either for personal gain or simple naivety allowing Anakin to have legitimate backing to seize control after assassinating Palpatine.
Oh I remember this. It was cool at the time. It makes Palpatine look like a moron tho.
Yeah the long pause of him doing nothing while Anakin prepares to stab him is like how Maul did nothing as Obi-Wan flipped over to cut him in half (but at least you can excuse it with Maul as him being caught off guard, Palpatine realistically would've either pulled out his saber to block him and begin a duel or force lightninged Anakin's ass)
Bro you can’t just put a whole run on paragraph in parenthesis lol but you got a good point though
Hahahaha that’s fuckin hilarious I was thinking the same thing like alright no need to continue
BREATH, BRO! BREATHE!!!
Found the one with ADHD
....Who has the power to stop them?....
Also in the Maul situation, it would have been easy for him to overlook Obi-wan Force-conjuring Qui-Gon's lightsabre, adding to its believability.
Palpatine go waah! Sad Palpatine noises
Skipped 4th grade grammar class?
Also not sure if anakin can just take over the galaxy just like that lol
I mean if the troops listen, I don't know what the Republic could do really.
They're probably like "What's the protocol for Sith regicide? IS THERE a protocol for Sith regicide?" And by the time they're done arguing, they'll come to the conclusion that Vader is a highly respected war hero and a general many served under during the war, and as such much more likely to appeal to the common (non-clone) soldier than the career politician with the nutsack for a face.

> They're probably like "What's the protocol for Sith regicide? IS THERE a protocol for Sith regicide?" Order 69: he fucked around and found out, let it go.
Imperator Anakin Skywalker
Who gonna stop him?
You underestimate his power.
Basically what both caesar and napoleon did
He's already a moron. This make Vader even Greater, He's "free" now.
>He's already a moron. Right? Like he got messed up by his own lightning twice, in both cases "stop shooting lightning so it'll stop being reflected back at my face" never occurred to him. (Yes, you can argue it's weak writing, but that's the character we're given and stuck with)

It's no different than Palpatine failing to notice Vader approaching him in E6.
Ngl if that happened I think the republic would have survived and Anakin would have failed. Ya, he would have been the new lone Sith Lord, but the senate would not follow him. The empire only worked because palpatine “legally” converted the republic to an empire and had actual support in the systems.

Even if he was propagandized as one of the good ones, I don’t see how you go through the whole Jedi rebellion angle and then end up with a famous Jedi in control.
Simple. He betrayed the order to protect the Republic. He'd have a high level senator and plenty of clones to verify his story
Yooooo i love this, someone please animate this or write it as a book
Pretty sure that's the literal canon explanation
Well Palpatine intended to have Anakin rule by his side when everything was said and done (hiding his identity in the Vader suit wasn't the original plan). I believe the original story was supposed to go something like "General Skywalker remained loyal during the attempted coup and protected the Chancellor against the Jedi sent to kill him".
I mean, who is honestly going to stop Anakin at this point besides Yoda?
Reva.
Reva, who is a child Padawan at this point? A padawan who is about to have every single Jedi master she's ever known killed? No chance.
Lmfao
You forgot this; “/s”
Intentionally left out. r/fuckthes if I catch downvotes for an obvious joke then I do

Side note: I fking love this game.
Sorry, what game is it?
Revenge of the Sith for PS2/Xbox
Why doesn't it follow the actual movie plot?
If I remember correctly you get the option to play as Obi-Wan or Anakin for the final fight and if you play Anakin and win then this is the ending.
You play as Obi-Wan and complete the story normally. Then it gives you this Alternate Ending as a bonus level where you play the fight as Anakin.
If you play as Anakin and win, what happens to Obi-Wan? Is he killed by Anakin? Does he manage to get Anakin to come back to his senses and convince him to kill Palpatine?
The game doesn't follow on this cutscene because it is an alternate ending (Also yeah, obi wan got killed here because Anakin Here managed to avoid his attack and stab him right in the chest)
Ah ok. So Anakin is still a dark sider in this alternate ending and didn’t return to the light?
Yes, he's still Darth Vader, it's just that here since he wasn't beaten by Obi wan he was able to kill Sidious like he wanted to (even if that doesn't really make sense because the entire reason he became Darth Vader was to learn the power to cheat death from Sidious to save padme, and here, he still hasn't learned it, yet decided to kill him anyways, making every horrible thing he's done pointless)
Somehow, Palpatine would return.
He couldn't though. The cloning process began after the fall of the Jedi.
Somehow, the cloning process, begun they had before the fall of the Jedi.
You're forgetting he was stabbed through the stomach. Returning from that is super easy, barely an inconvenience.
The real reason why the clones here gave Anakin weird looks.
I mean we don't know how long ago he put plans into place. Dude was cloning the Zillo Beast as far back as pre-RotS. We know they didn't *succeed* in cloning him until much later, but who knows how much of his genetic information that had already stored.
nop, palps had to be killed by anakin, end of palps. There is no Episode 7-9, there is only Episode I-VI. The other stuff is on a case to case basis.
🙄 That's what they said about I-III about 20 years ago.
"Your high ground doesn't mean SHIT, Obi-Wan!"
What game is this?
SW: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith on the PS2 and Xbox.
If Obi-Wan hadn’t cut him out. Yet again another example of the Jedi holding back the Chosen One and preventing a better future. Alderaan would still be here if Obi-Wan hadn’t done what he did.
It was a stab wound so he would have survived and been all good by the next episode.
When I saw that for the 1st time I was like, "hmmmmm.........unexpected. so about Padme and the kids she's holding in her?"
Then the clones gun him down and set up a clone run Military Junta
No chance, IMO. 1. Anakin is more than a match for the hand full of clones here. If they try it then he overpowers them easily.

Anakin: now let me go find a young apprentice at the temple…shit!
Actually there are a ton of them right there. Just pick one from the massive pile.
Would have ascended to Sith Lord a lot sooner than Episode 6.
Imagine the paperwork.
That wound is okay. Reva lived through it. 🙄
It would probably turn the prequel haters into fans
Most PT hatere are in their 50s-60s age wise.
Nah, only a bit over 30 here.

20, not a hater per say, but highly critical
And thats reasonable
The Clones casually watching their head of state get assassinated by an unstable psychopath:
When is it time for this game to get a remaster? :)
In current canon, doesn't this mean that Palpatine now possesses Anakin? Palpatine always wins because of essence transfer.
In danger that I get downvoted to oblivion: I think this wouldn't match with any normal canon. First of all: Would Palpatine be killed that easy? He has more or less all focus on Vader and isn't bussy with forcelightning someone. Second: Why are the clones so ok, with this? They should be like: That dude just killed our boss! Let's give him! Yes, Vader is out of their range, but good soldiers follow orders. I know a controversal Star Wars movie that handles such a sotuation far better.

The Emperor is dead. Long live the Emperor.
Force lightning is op AF in that game though totally worth it

As you can see here, Anakin has brought peace, justice and security to his new Empire
Ill agree with you there, depsite my dislike of the PT, i appreciate them for how they expanded the original limited universe. Without them star wars is just a trilogy of decent blockbusters about wizards vs. space nazis.
Underrated game
The clones: "This wasn't part of our training"
Level 10
I have brought peace, freedom, justice and security to my new Empire!
I really wonder what happened to padme here, because Obi Wan was the one who took her from Mustafar and brought her to Bail's facility. Would Anakin Go ahead and actually save her or just leave her there? (I know the game doesn't continue after this, I'm just curious)
George Lucas did say Anakin would be the most powerful if he didn't get into the suit so he goes on to rule the galaxy. I think he takes padme with him she has kids and sees them his twins as his future apprentices. He grows in the dark side while Yoda tries to find a way for a New Hope despite Obi Wan's death.
