Our year-long series analyzing Revenge of the Sith for its 20th anniversary begins with a look at the Jedi arrival at General Grievous’s flagship.
Every year we celebrate a Star Wars movie celebrating a milestone anniversary by breaking the movie down in 10-15 minute segments. This year is the 20th anniversary of Revenge of the Sith, and it is a natural selection for this year’s series.
The discussion begins with an analysis of the opening crawl before the action kicks off with Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi’s arrival at the Battle of Coruscant. They have a mission to rescue the Supreme Chancellor from the clutches of General Grievous. The action ramps up quickly and does not relent. Join us as we dive into the details of the first eleven minutes of the movie.
Ryder Waldron from Idiot’s Array and Star Wars School of Dentistry joins us for this episode.
This segment of the movie starts at 00:00 and runs to 11:21.
