A trailer for Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace to celebrate its 25th anniversary. I edited this and made a trailer-style remix of Duel of the Fates specifically for this. I hope you enjoy it!
I remember the first time I saw the Phantom Menace. Twenty minutes into it the entire row in front of me got up and walked out. It was one of the scariest flights I've ever been on!
I got to see it in theaters tonight with my brother. Missed the first few minutes but still a fun time. I've seen all the films at one point or another but seeing it on a proper BIG screen makes a fair bit of difference.
good edit, cant believe its been 25 years since this came out, i remember i was about 9 years old and my uncle took me to go see it, i remember how big the marketing was for the film at the time because star wars merch was everywhere at the time, i also remember being blown away by the Duel of the fates lightsaber battle at the end. was a truly memorable film.
LOL, I remember when the ORIGINAL trailer for this dropped (with Natalie Portman's real 16 year old voice, not what you heard in the final film). Two minutes and thirty seconds long, and it took me almost two days to download the whole thing :)
If you had been around to see the original triology in the cinemas like me and many other people, you would realise that nothing compares to that feeling or those memories. Phantom Menace pales in comparison.
I was born in 1993 and grew up watching the original trilogy countless times before i got to see this movie in theaters as a kid. I know that many people didn´t like it. I loved it and watched it up and down as a kid.
100% same 1993 born , loved this movie more than then anything . Watched the 3 OG movies with my dad about 1 year prior to the phantom menace been released . Darth maul double blade light saber and the scheme in attack of the clones when all the light sabers light up and it’s the first time we see bulk Jedi was something I’ll never forget
George Lucas’s Star Wars prequel trilogy, about how a republic falls to authoritarianism and loses liberty after a false flag attack and a war orchestrated by corrupt institutions, came out between 1999-2005. The man warned us.
I saw this at the theater in June 1999. I saw it at the theater with my sister and my Dad. My Mom was at work at the time, so she didn't get to see it until it came out on video.
Just got home from seeing it. Last time i saw it was back in 99 with my dad. Felt like a kid agian seeing it. Hope they do the same with episode 2 and 3.
This is just epic and your edit of duel of the fates just fits and hypes up that young Star Wars fan inside of me much more regardless of the fact that I’ve seen the movie quite a few times already. Wish you could make separate video with just the duel of the fates edit.
Omg go back 25 years no youtube no social media as such(msn) hearing little drips of a new star wars getting my sony Ericsson k800 all my mates standing round goosesbumps upon goosebumps oh my the world doesnt know what this movie did!
LOVED EDITING ON THIS. WAS GREAT. SOUND IN SOME AREAS NEEDED A LITTLE WORK BUT SAME COULD BE SAID ABOUT SOME OF MY VIDEOS BUT OVERALL GREAT WORK ON THIS.....
Great job with keeping the sith in the shadows until the end, and minimal Jar Jar. I haven't had much desire to re-watch this movie recently but now I want to, mission accomplished brother.
If only George had thought of Count Dooku before Episode 1 & had him involved in the film the way Tales of the Jedi portrays him. Less Jar Jar & more Dooku would've made the movie iconic & much more well loved. Christopher Lee would've been like a fallen Alec Guiness character to lead the Trilogy off & his death at the hands of Anakin would've been even more powerful
this is super promising. theres a few cuts that feel too abrupt- the first shot of palpatine at 0:26 and the cut away from amidala at 1:04, and the cut at 1:19. they break the viewer's immersion quite a bit. other than that? your work is incredible. my favorite segment in particular is from 0:52 to 1:03. you really feel anakin pulling the lever, obi wan's kick, and the explosion into palpatine. great work!
If you're gonna introduce someone to Star Wars or you're the one initiating a new journey and Star Wars is new for you, TPM is either the first one you start with or the 4th one; either watch it chronologically or release date order.
No. Both the prequels and the sequels suck. We only need four movies to tell the story, Rogue One, A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of The Jedi. These four movies tell everything we need to know, from start to finish. Rogue One leads into the original trilogy. Four parts, all great, done.
For many many years I always thought that Walt Disney and Lucasfilm should make a completely extended and restored cut of all of the live action Star Wars movies.
How did you make the logo transition thing at the end just like the trailers? Making a movie project of sorts and wish I could do that with the trailer I’m going to make for it
All the excitement and the HYPE for this movie and Trilogy 25 years ago…What a time to live and experience Star Wars…. If you were not there to experience it you really missed a great spot in time…. Everyone was so excited.. And now 😑. Over 3/4 of the true fandom despises the sequels and Star Wars in general. I am personally sad. I don’t think it can be saved…. People are just done with the bait and switch. What is so hard about giving 3/4 of the fan base what they want? “The journeys of Luke Skywalker “He’ll yea!!!! More Luke, More Vader, Heir to the Empire. Shadows of the empire. MARA JADE!!! . This was EASY!! So EASYYYYYY. And it was messed up with BILLIONS AND BILLIONS LEFT ON THE TABLE..
Sadly.. where I live.. we only have one movie cinema business.. they are overpriced and they never show these movies.. only like the new ones hey!! I even contacted them and asked if they would show The Phantom Menace on May the 4th and they had no clue or idea about it with no intentions to even show it hey!! Like it took them 2 months to even reply to my inquiry so they must also be short staffed too!!
