How Palpatine Became a Sith and His Childhood [FULL STORY] - Star Wars Explained 

Johnisgood Johnisgreat We fucking need it

Like the new joker movie kinda

The role Matt Smith was meant to play, and should in a movie or Disney plus show

Sean Brown I kind of feel u on that , but I think it all depends on the script

And you got 66 likes

True genius, doing his video calls with his hood up and making his voice slow and croaky, real genius

The chosen one still restored balance to the force at the end of the original films. So palpatine still had weaknesses of not being able to foresee that happening

@@Mattyj3388 I think it came down to not truly training Vader. Sidious believed in the rule of one and planned on ruling the galaxy forever with or without Vader. So he kinda laid down the basics of the dark side with his apprentice but didn’t truly teach him how to subdue his inner conflict and embrace his pain and anger.

It wasn't easily, it took years and he has been manipulating him since he was a boy. Lol

I wouldn’t say manipulating and turning anakin to the dark side was EASY necessarily. The movies definitely make it seem that way but there’s time skips an we only get a handful of scenes of the two of them together obviously. Anakin also a lot of trauma such as being born a slave therefore abused and beat as a child, his mother dying in his arms a slave, etc. Some other Jedi such as Yoda would likely be able to cope with these events better due to their lack of attachment, fear, anger etc. but we know that as a child and later in life Anakin struggled composing his emotions naturally. I’m not sure if this is true but maybe since he was kind of a product of the dark side (no biological father, basically created by the force by the sith as far as I know) he naturally had these tendencies and some dark side inside him?

Also Matt Smith in Terminatr Genysis. What does skynet have to do with Star Wars?

@@mojojojo9458 what does that have to do with anything...

Jacob ibarra because terminator>SW

Timothy Bell both franchises suffered from a similar fate. A dark fate ;)

@Ben Siener David and Matt were basically similar.

Legendary

You’re

Darth rectumus...

Sheev

you're*

Fahim Alvi just dew it

Now thats just amazing

@@someonesomeone4262 Nice lmao

Wtf ?

With a touch of... 'Unnnnlyimited PYOOOOWER!

Didn't we already have 3?

And it should be Rated R

@@connorallen1979 No it should be S rated for SENATE

Not a movie put a series on Disney Plus, give it to Favreau

Ya I don't think you can put the the bulk of the man's life in a single movie. A series makes more sense.

Not yet

Benedict Margolin well that’s just treason then..

@@benedictmargolin4181 It's treason then.

A Sith, lawd?

Omg really

In Legends, his name was unknown. In my headcanon, his name is Cosinga Palpatine II, after his father.

NEVER I MEAN NEVER MIX HARRY POTTER WITH STAR WARS UGHHH

Sheev came straight from George Lucas, in the canceled Star Wars: Underworld

@@Mister_Jay_Tee Really? I thought James Luceno came up with this name for the Tarkin novel. This restored my respect for Luceno! ;) He's too good an author to come up with such a stupid name! However, since Underworld was cancelled (which I'm glad it was in retrospect, because it probably would have fucked the timeline even more than TCW), this name isn't canonical in Legends. I'm thankful for what George gave us, but sometimes he has really stupid ideas.

@@wilhufftarkin8543 silly names are a staple of Star Wars. Who can forget such gems as Kit Fisto, Boba Fett, Bib Fortuna, Rey Skywalker...

I did too,it's ironic

Is it true that he can save others from death, but not himself?

@@dangasapos thats a bit tricky. He can save others physically but himself only spiritually.

not a history a jedi would tell you

The dark side of the force is a pathway to to abilities some would consider to be unnatural

I'll tell everyone what a winey bitch you was about padamommae , panda bear or whatever TF her name is lol

I’ll have a turkey clean club.

If they make an origin film, i could see Matt smith playing a late 20s early 30s palpatine

@@SkinnerNoah would be great

God forbid!!!! Disney would utterly ruin it, like they ruin everything! i like Palpatine, and that's exactly why i would NEVER want Disney anywhere close to him!

@@bluemoondiadochi what about the mandalorian? Clone wars season 7? Rogue one? I personally dislike the sequels, but dont think it being Disney would necessarily ruin it. I'd also mention kenobi show looking promising, with the director also having done two of the best episodes of the mandalorian in my opinion (3 and 7). So long as it had some passionate about star wars with a vision like Dave Fioni or Jon Favrou I'd be okay with it, and kept kathyleen kennedy as far out as possible

If disney does this, Palpy would have been born a woman and later decided to be a man and was angry at the galaxy for not understanding him

There would be no tragedy to Palpatine's life, in contrast to Arthur Fleck/Joker. Palpatine was just a young man/teenager who directly turned to the dark side, without being good/on the light side in the first place. He was trained in the dark arts from the very beginning. Besides, from what I've read, Palpatine as a young boy/young adult was already kinda psychopathic or lacking remorse to some stuff he did. So the idea of a Palpatine movie, similar to that of Joker, wouldn't make much sense. Palpatine/Darth Sidious wouldn't be considered a hero or a tragic figure as it is with Arthur Fleck. What must be said, though, is that Darth Sidious is the last true Dark Lord of the Sith. I would write a whole book about him. He has alot in common with the ancient Sith Lords (from the KotOR and the Old Republic games). I prefer Darth Sidious oger Darth Vader any day°

@@gabrielscarlat8592 I think they were on about how both a hypothetical palpatine film would be focused on a singular character as they become a villain like the joker, . It doesnt necessary mean he would be a sympathetic character, just the film like joker would focus on the villain as the protagonist, and you'd see this 'protagonist' commit more and more evil stuff as the film progresses, till eventually theyre the villain we knew they would become. Whilst you would see his lack of empathy and sociopathic tendacies at the beginning, he wouldn't have necessarily done anything evil. But as the film progresses, like in joker, u see what happens to the character to make them become the villain, and it would likely end with Palpatine murdering his father

Ho Lee Shi girl WHATTT he came back in legends/expanded universe YEARS before disney bought star wars

And then we find out the Sith Lords have been the same person they just keep regenerating right before they die

Giovanni L actually that would be very interesting, especially when Palpy said that the sith of the past live in him. And also the Rule of Two means there's only 2 sith that regenerate back and forth as they kill each other

Spoilers

@@NICKatronMC I honestly can't tell if thats a DW reference or not.

Yeah, this video just makes Palpatine look like a male Dolores umbridge. Who was pretty much BORN evil, or at least racist. Would you please care to further elaborate on sheev's abusive past with us? It would be very much appreciated if you did!😄👍

Palpatine was born evil . His abusive father didn't make him like this

@@dhdusidjdjso Go ahead and twist his tragic backstory around all you want. But it’s made clear that, while he did emotional and mental problems, his father contributed a great deal to his ‘present’ state. And it’s NEVER stated that he was born evil.

He should of just been Darth Plagueis *"The Wise"* Palpatine's Old Master.

@@Dylan_AlphaLoneKing Eh, they probably would have butchered his character.

@@greenbean2222 how if any character has been butchered it was palatine he legit was so overpowered for a couple mins then just died to rey by the most stupid way

"I MADE Snoke!!!"

YES! I LOVED that novel… As far as I’m concerned, it’s canon until further notice…even though there are inconsistencies with the current canon

@@electraking8856 should I read it

@@BinksTheSith absolutely!!

@@BinksTheSith YES!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

@@electraking8856 alr

The hills have eyes

And he used the tardis to travel to the future and thus rise of skywalker begins

@Doofenward I don’t think that that is true

A star wars/dr who crossover would be the ultimate sci fi nerd wet dream

Irl psychopaths usually are relatively 2 dimensional. Usually, it just involves piss poor parenting causing them to turn evil. They don't need a long list of a tragic backstory or a dissention into madness. And there are a decent amount of psychopaths who were just born evil and did not have to have any forme of trauma to induce it. It's more realistic whenever the villain is just psychopathic because they were born that way, than it is for them to have some kind of weakness or soft side to them. Hitler was just a piece of crap. His only soft side to my knowledge was he liked heterosexual, cisgender, non-Jewish, white males. Which isn't really a redeeming quality. A lot of serial killers' "good sides" are just chopped up as being a means of staying incognito.

​@@MegaJesseman Well you should see Hitler early life story before coming to power it was pretty tragic. He was abused by his father and his older brother ran and then his father abused him in place of him. His mother was already related to his husband. She was his 3rd wife. His father forced things on him. He fought war and was not able to become a artist. The war changed him completely. Before it he didn't hate jews

@@MegaJesseman Not to defend Hitler but you seem like you don’t know a lot about him

Nice concept but their faces are a bit different

Great admiral Smith. That would be fantastic!

@@ashjose7973 I think Anthony Starr might fit well

He was in the movie.

At TROS Sidious says to Kylo that he had died before. Anakin says to Rey to bring again balance in the Force like he once did. So,Anakin did kill Sidious and brought balance to the Force for some time after ROTJ.

I believe that the force must require balence every various years and requires a chosen one to do so. Anakin was the first and Rey is the second and no doubt another will rise when the force requires balence again

Exactly. Balance; Powerful Light and Powerful Darkness.(Luke) Darkness rises and Light to meet it.(Snoke)

@@SnakeRoadComicsOfficial3677 I don't think that's the case. Personally I don't like the Idea of Rey being a chosen one, but It's not a bad theory. There's nothing in the prophecy that says there's only one Chosen one forever.

No power in the universe can handle a Mary Sue :P

That Mary Sue as you call her(Rey) didn't beat palpatine bye herself she had every Jedi in existence in side her and have her the power too destroy palpatine

TRipleX just as palpatine had the power of every sith

@@DaG.O.A.T. the power? She just pulled up 2 lightsabers, and just reflected the lightning to kill him.

Maybe one reason ist that his son could not use the force. I don't know wether he could but if he couldn't Palpatine would have had a reason to kill him because he was disappointing. People often copy the behavior of their parents even if they think it's wrong

Family, an love for them, is a weakness, an a distraction from a Sith's ultimate goal.

What I wanna know is how he even had a son in the first place. Who did he get with

I wonder if he felt any love at all for the woman who gave birth to his son. Or was she just used to carry on the Palpatine name and legacy? I suspect the latter.

@@lindacartwright5100 his son may have been a young clone of himself, similar to the Jango and Boba Fett scenario but in Palpatines case his son was either non or minimally force sensitive or simply had a great dislike of his father

so did i. fucking clickbait, dislike.

@@twisted_nether373 Matt Smith was meant to have filmed scenes for rise of Skywalker as a younger palpatine in flashbacks but it was scrapped sadly

@@gavinhamilton4094 I couldn't believe that the first I was hearing of this was weeks after Ep IX came out so I had to search it, myself. Wow.

SAME. Matt Smith as Palpatine would have saved Rise of Skywalker.

The opposite

I trust the Andor directors with it

@@BinksTheSith I need to see Andor. Haven't had the chance yet.

He was the only Sith to become a Dark Side nexus.

A movie would not be enough. It should be some kind of show.

Mikołaj Pyka What book is this info in?

MrDishboy09 the Plagueis book

I agree a palpatine movie would be great to see his life as young boy to dark lord of the sith

@@csw1013 how bout a series about that

I think it would work better as a Disney Plus series

Assassin Kapkan careful, he’ll kick your ass with raiden

They did? Leia did at least so why wouldnt they?

That’s just the Palpatine “fanboys” trying to twist the story around. They feel like it somehow diminishes him as a villain if he’s humanized and not “pure evil” from the start. I deal with them all the time and their dumb leaps in logic.

@@sarahcook2818 A take that Ian McDiarmid has supported.

@@grimlord3181 Ian has confirmed on multiple occasions that Palpatine cares about Anakin, therefore he doesn’t view him as pure evil. “There is a moment-just one moment,” McDiarmid remembers, “It’s after Anakin’s been almost destroyed and he’s got little life in him. Palpatine has sent for a medical team and he’s waiting for them to arrive-and he just gently touches Anakin’s forehead. Sidious doesn’t have any qualities we normally associate with humanity, except he does have a master-servant relationship with Anakin. Anakin means something to him.” The Making of Star Wars: Episode III- The Revenge of the Sith J.W. Rinzler

YES!!!!!! Yes Star Wars DARTH SIDIOUS or PALPATINE. Which one you like ?

PALPATINE, something about it sounds best! He was much more than a Sith. He was a mastermind. The Phantom Menace. Took out all the Jedi, right under their noses too. Vader threw him overboard, and he still came back. Can’t help it, I like the guy!

Snoke is a Wil in my opinion look it up

my guess would have to be that he was a shadow in the force and thats why but other than that no clue

We know that he had interest in things of the Sith AND he is a very deceiving man. He probably used his father's blood or some other things to dodge the Jedi recruiting and was able to hide behind his shadow in the force so nobody knew he had force.

Plot hole

LOL

@Leewilldofine Pedro. P. Palpatine. p. That's about as much as anyone ever had with a Rey theory. they better have this in the high republic movies or I'll throw a fit!

@@_carljc Oh thanks, just read about the 3 versions of the movie. Disney totally messed it up.
