Anakin Fights The MOST Powerful Jedi - DELETED FOOTAGE 

*The "Jedi Temple Guard" with their yellow double-bladed lightsabers only existed in the Filoni Clone Wars show - about 5 years or so AFTER **_Revenge Of The Sith_** was released.* *Those guards didn't exist during the time of filming - so if Cin Drallig's scenes were 100% restored in the movie, there still wouldn't be any "Jedi Temple Guards" and we wouldn't see Anakin fighting any.*

Cin was nowhere near Mace Windu respectfully. Dralling was good,but none of the other Jedi were in the same galaxy with Mace and Yoda

@@kwametodd6094 aside from Mace, Yoda, and Anakin, name a better duelist left in the Jedi Order

@@StarWarsAnalyst How do I enter for the giveaway?

​@@StarWarsAnalystI mean... Obi Wan for starters lol 😂 he was trained by Quigon who was trained by Dooku and both were fantastic duelists respectively.

Need a Snyder's cut of Episode 3

Me too

I think that's the real issue here - there was so much that Lucas had to cram into Ep III that he ended up having to cut a lot.

We need Nick Gillard to upload the full choreography of the fight on his RU-vid channel

@@pcmasterracetechgod5660 YES PLEASE!

Yes!

It does. The last half of the movie as always felt rushed.

I agree

It really did.

As long as they give us a longer mustafar fight lol

It was the moment everyone was waiting for… Newly anointed Darth Vader, obliterating even the most powerful of Jedi.

Would it have ruined the pacing of order 66? The weight and tragedy of that scene was perfect

We never really had a moment in the prequels where Anakin got to be more powerful than his peers. All Star Wars media since then has bent over backwards to show why Anakin was so special and Vader was so feared, but in the movies we only saw him strike down unarmed opponents. Making short work of a room full of armed Jedi, including a hypercompetent duelist, would have not only been shocking but established Vader as a threat.

@@lordskywalker7825get over yourself

Might have detracted from the Obi-Wan duel. Not really that interesting watching Jedi you don't know or have attachment to get killed. If you want to talk about "filmmaking" then just chopping through fodder isn't what film is about. Could have also been about age rating because they were probably on the limit with choking Padme and Vader burning.

Where is the original footage from this clip?

He seems like a pretty cool guy. He is a great actor that learns his role and perfects it.

Hayden was very adept physically. Having played hockey and taken dance lessons, he was the perfect saber combatant

How could any actor with a saber in Star Wars not want to just play with them all day? Let alone the guy who got the honor of playing The Chosen One He probably trained way more than that without the others too. When you have a passion for something, you don't even keep track of the time

@@MichaelHolmgaardthat’s actually crazy how perfectly that worked out

The version we have is the director's cut. Aside from some basic constraints of time and budget, Lucas made the movie he wanted to make and released it in the form he wanted it to be in. While I wouldn't object to getting extended editions, because I think they'd be fun, I think it's worth remembering that the stuff that was cut was cut for good reasons. A fun exciting duel would completely destroy the mood of the Jedi Temple destruction scene.

given its the director (lucas) that cut most of the good battle sequence, i want a "un-director's cut" :)

​@@Salsmachevnot necessarily, the entire duel could be tense, bro is facing down the Chosen One and watching all his friends die next to him

@@SonTaicario You could certainly do brief shots in montage showing Cin Darlig getting killed, sort of like the brief scene we get of Ki Adi Mundi trying to fight off the clones, but an actual extended fight scene would necessarily end up being too high-energy and exciting. I love the battle of the heroes fight. I think they did a great job of making it raw, emotional, and tense. It's not just a lightsaber duel. But at the end of the day I also watch it and say "woo lightsaber go brrr". That's the last thing you want people thinking when Anakin is betraying and massacring the Jedi. Look at what happened recently with the ATLA live action series. The Air Nomad genocide, which was super impactful in the cartoon, despite not being shown, was reduced to nothing more than a flashy action scene in the adaptation. Anytime you have people saying "wow that genocide scene was cool!" you've fucked up.

It wont happen while Lucas is alive, i guarantee it. Lucas is still butt hurt about how the fans rejected the prequals even now, the contempt towards the prequals may has lessened somewhat in recent years, but in the end there still seen as "noble failures" by the majority of the real fans who supported and genuinely loved Star Wars all these years, not the "NPC" bots who are the only real fans of the debacle that is "disneywars"

Temple Guards weren't invented back then. So it would've just been Anakin fighting CinDarllig and his students

@@cloudmaster182 In the Rots novel the 1st jedi Vader kills is Jedi master Jurrok who was the Jedi Gate Master which was part of the jedi temple security. So they had some kind of guards.

@demonsdlood yea but the temple guards as we know them didn't exist. It seems like that guy in charge if the gate was pretty much the only security the temple had

😂😂😂😂😂

"Hmmm no, no-no. That's too dark. Instead let's show him go into a room full of children and then we imply that he's going to kill them all."

@@samuelelliott8453 "Only imply, right?.... Right?"

😂😂😂

Have you seen Ep. 5 of The Acolyte? Very good fight scenes, and some pretty dark stuff.

first time a yellow lightsaber was in star wars!

​@@-jank-willson The first appearance of a yellow lightsaber was in a 90s comic

@@TheWarriorsFromHellPretty sure the movie takes precedent over the novel

@@TheWarriorsFromHell I love reading, but the movie is literally the creator’s actual work and the novel is based around the creator’s work.

@@TheWarriorsFromHell I am eternal

Well it is canon as a split second of it is shown via hologram. We just don't get to see it

Cruel Irony

Vicious

Whie seen his death by Anakin in a vision.

Lucas told a very simple story. Everything people today like about the prequals was added in later by the Clone Wars cartoon or comic books. This is why the prequals were so hated when they came out.

@@ChiefDJS Lucas lost his ability to tell epic tales. His concept of the Clone Wars and Anakin's fall to the dark side was a far better product when he was finishing Return of the Jedi. He got vanilla after that. Made some terrible business decisions on top of that. That's why Star Wars is in the terrible state it's in currently.

@@paulharmon8947 I mean the story Lucas was going for was too complicated for a movie trilogy. So that's why the Clone Wars TV show is better because it fleshes out the charaters and plot better over longer periods of time. Lucas making the prequal trilogy is like Kishimoto making Naruto a three movie trilogy.

@@SamuelTatarian-tr1gi that's why it's vanilla

@@ChiefDJSNah, I straight up like the movies in and of themselves

I feel like this video just to advertise that he makes lightsabers

respect the hustle.

​@Xingularity respect but at this point it's like who is making a good product and who is just making cheap copies cause they saw another channel doing it? Like really, everyone thought to only make sabers and nothing else at the same time? Just feels like a Prime ad at that point

That's part of the deleted scene. After he defeats Cin Dralig, Vader takes Dralig's personal starship, flies to Yavin, passes the X-Wings on the way, does loop de loops around them while yelling "it's Vaderin' time!" Then he blows up both Death Stars without firing a shot.

Hopefully it’ll get a re-release/remaster for the 20th anniversary, next year. In the meantime, if you have a good enough PC.. You can play it upscaled and (kind of remastered) on the PCSX2 Emulator. It is also backwards compatible on XBOX One Series X or whatever that console’s called.

It is still on the ps3 playstation store, which is still up

Was it good like force unleashed?

@@cm-pr2ys I think it's better. You follow the story in episode 3 plus extra. And there's a lightsaber fighting mode, every character has their style of fighting. It's a great game

Dude I’ve been waiting for it, the duel mode is amazing and I still pull out my PS3 to play it. Feels like every Star Wars game but that one has come to PS5 lol

Both are from two different eras and directors. Not comparable.

​@@brucelee4357you forget that they're Star Wars fans. They don't care about context

@@brucelee4357What does it matter if they’re from different eras and directors. What does any of that actually have to do with his actual grievance.

​@@MisterPeckingOrder It has everything to do with his actual grievance, so how exactly are his grievances not being met with reasonable answers? Or can you come up with a better set of reasons to rectify the issue beside the two reasons that were already given as answers? You can't interject and creep into someone's offer when they give two good answers and not have anything better to offer as answers to his grievances. Otherwise you are saying nothing at all. We don't hear you. We don't know what you're trying to say. What do you mean by what you say? The facts are that there are real chronological differences within the Star Wars universe that do in fact affect the perception we have of Star Wars and therefore have a greater affect down the line of the product we get from books to prequels, new spinoffs and new series. So how are two different eras taking place in two totally different time periods not significant? can you answer that for us? Can you come up with a better answer than what was given that can help it along? Even if its speculative, you can at least entertain the idea instead of not offering anything constructive with your own critique and ideas. What would you have done differently if you were directing the movies but had limits to the screen time and a limited budget? There is also the fact that both film series have different directors with different ideas, and different ideologies between Star Wars the Acolyte and Star Wars I, II, and III. How does this answer not address the issue? Or what makes the answer not capable of reasonably addressing his concerns? I don't mean to bust your marbles here but come on, toss some tinder into the bonfire instead of complaining and whining about what goes in I'm sure you got something to say!

@@MANAOX To all of this all I have to say is, I don’t care.

You don't know the power of the dark side.

Your lack of faith disturbs me

Why have I never thought of that.

It’d have made the fight more fair since obi had been through a similar fight recently with Grievous. It’d have also helped show how much of an emotional wreck Anakin was by the time he fought obi.

I mean the fight did still technically happen, it just happened off screen. Safe to assume it still wasn’t simple considering the footage looks like a fairly contested bout.

True!

Jeez I'm so sorry to hear that; I just another yotuber say the exact same thing. You guys should report him so you can get credit

yup thats the whole reason anakin turned to the dark side...

Palpatine was dead right about Anakin all along

Not necessarily. Being a master is more a matter of leadership and dedicated loyalty than about anything else. You don’t make your best sniper your commander in chief just because he hits his mark every time.

@@-jank-willsonHe turned because he was terrified for his young wife and his unborn childrens lives and the Jedi told him “The hell if I care”. Otherwise he would have been perfectly fine with letting them take Sidious away.

@MisterPeckingOrder if he survived decades of extremely violent engagement and Is the best, then he should of been considered for a high rank frankly the grand Master who is older should of been defending the temple not a younger man who enjoys battle

he wasn't in the final movie, so how would we know what his lightsaber color could have been? Maybe it was yellow

​@@-jank-willsonwell actually he was. He's one of the holocron recordings yoda and obi wan watch in the archives.

@@fromryuk7785 but the holocron is blue and white only, so we can't tell the true color of his saber

“Based on behind-the-scenes materials, his lightsaber blade was originally to be rotoscoped in yellow. However, George Lucas would only allow either blue or green as the color of any regular Jedi's lightsaber blade, with the exception of Samuel L. Jackson's violet lightsaber blade he used as Mace Windu. Lucas would go no further with other colors, so Gillard chose green. However, a promotional image (appearing on Cin Drallig's Legends page) shows him with a blue lightsaber.” Source: starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Nick_Gillard

@@StarWarsAnalyst Well dang, that's cool. I stand corrected.

Aww, if only you were a somebody!

@@RoBot9491 if only I didn't have to kiss someone's ass just to get there.

the inquisitors weren't created until after the empire was already formed, they were made up of former jedi

@-jank-willson The Grand Inquisitor was the head Temple Guard at the time of Order 66. Palpatine had already gotten to him and turned him, promising him power and access to knowledge in exchange for his service and becoming the Grand Inquisitor. The original comment is 100% correct. Just because the Inquisitors hadn't been formed yet, doesn't mean the beings who became them didn't participate in events prior to their formation.

We can clearly see with the people that work on the comics that Star Wars can and did have an amazing story past the prequels. But it was sold off to the highest bidder, who never had a passion for the series The cinematic universe fumbled so badly, it was just handed over to the wrong people. The same greedy pigs who have ruined so much in the world of entertainment
