Hey everyone, so what you're about to see is pretty much one of my favorite pieces of cake from the episode eat cake on the anniversary panel
I left some cake in there that I felt would just be nice to eat but mainly there is a piece at the beginning and
At the very end Orion MacDermid very strongly eats cake upon his return in episode 9
So I thought it would be interesting for those. Who care to eat lots of cake
I hope you enjoy it and leave a like on this video if you did also, sorry for the shaky camera
the cake made me nervous
courtesy to all those on my patreon and the join button who donated and are helping support me getting new stuff for the channel which
Allowed me to get this delicious cake for you and I was actually sitting pretty far away. So it's a pretty sick piece of cake
So thank you to all those who have donated in support of the cake
Before I keep going on enjoy it leave a like and may the cake be with you. We stop you
I realize we're here today to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Phantom cake after seeing your surprise appearance here at celebration on Friday
For the episode 9 camera, I do have to ask her do you ever think to tell us I
Just happen to be in the area. I thought I should just go
Now when we're at first filming on return Jedi those years ago, did you have any idea that 16 years later
You would be McCoy's Eagle role again. No
Because as you know, um, Darth Vader shut me down that tunnel
And I thought well, that's the end but I can say to George, you know when I came up for air I
Said well, this is he and before I could finish the sentence he went. Yeah. Yes
Well, couldn't he perhaps no
He's dead, but it wouldn't it be interesting if forget it
So all those years later when the peoples became a reality I got that phone call again
and I had a very brief meeting with George as I did the first time and
He said, you know he wants to play an emperor my support might be
And we said well these two characters in the movie does this sort of hypocritical politician I thought I could do that
And then this other guy who we don't really get to know
until later, but he's very dark and mysterious and kind of scary and I thought oh
That's the part I'd like but I'm going to be a boring politician. So like everybody else
I didn't know that only two they were going to be Wow
Now I understand. You won't give a much background when you play the Empire Return of the Jedi
That's true when so very much, you know met with all the mischief that I didn't even know. He was called the Emperor
When they first got the part besides a very brief meeting was George one lunch time and I went home
The phone was ringing in my agent was sort of screaming of them. Don't say you've got the part
What's the pond and
he consulted his notes very thorough and
He said oh, he's called the Emperor of the universe
Well, I guess we'll be doing it then
So the facts of menace was the first installment of his background sacks, right
Yes, and well as we all know, I mean the Veda took over the world in terms of interest, you know and evil
George I think maybe it all was Flannery but decided to tell his story I
Had no idea how much my character would be part of it
And on the move year, it's the nature of these movies and I love it
You know, nobody knows anything and all the way to remove it Liam
Didn't know that I was playing
And
You know just inflict the pages of systems
You know think I'm in those scenes anyone
that
And then at the premiere
When we said hi again, it's it it was you you master
Now as you mentioned there, you know not everyone including some of the bands knew that you were playing both characters
That's right, and I didn't know myself I should say until until that first day and I thought they made a mistake
You know, all those actors characters get numbers and I thought and they don't make these kind of mistakes
But I thought Harvey give them the wrong number that I'm playing this senator, you know
I don't know who this sidious person is at all and
Then I realized but to this day
Nobody told me that the two people with the same, you know, I had to work it out for myself
And then how did you approach that see different personas differently especially saw them as different characters totally yes
Well, of course, you know Sidious was voted like the Emperor. He was the Emperor fully achieved
physically, although certainly in
Intellectually, but George said a great thing one day on the set that you should think of your eyes ian's eyes Albertine. I
have
Contact there
So when you play the scene
you'll be
Shouldn't really see real and that was a fantastic note for a night and it really made sense. So
It was difficult to shake off
So when I went home, you know
I felt I'd be going around in this terrible mask and people kept saying you were right. I used to having it everyone
This is practicing
Brilliantly
Now right Darth Maul is a man of few words
So movement has become important as your language basically yesterday
We heard Dave Filoni tell us that more action and fighting scenes creative with motion capture
Tell my kids
As well to their phone how did you originally create this sort of body language that wall has
Well, as a teenager is very shy anyway, you know, that was a very good a chat up girls and 20 hit
you know, wasn't that kind of guy but I was it my body is what I knew and
Originally when I was brought in by Nicky lives, I solved our development scene storyboards and the scene the images
I saw more as like a when a distinguished kind of like
Master the you would see the Chinese movies that doesn't really say much there wouldn't look at you when he was doing action
But he was in full control
And I think just through my
background of gymnastics and
I've been a big kid if I want to be a Jedi it was just a dream come true for me
I'm working with Nicky's will own andreas and all the other guys have really helped bring everything together
Basically as we were playing games like Tekken and so legend, you know, we were like copying things like that. Look
So we will having fun the rehearsal and that's what we were just playing and
We want that one thing was we wanted to make sure because it has been much like fans watch in movies
We want to make sure the fans didn't see any faults in the fights. There was no loopholes everything was technical and
Rapidly and once has to be
super powerful
Absolutely. Now, there's one iconic moment in the movie when those doors open and you ignite your lights tell us about
Well, it was great because I was listening to prodigy at the time
Why I started was my feet for Darth Maul and
the new album phantom and is dropped and
Andreas was brilliant sitting with both breakdowns suspect. When were younger
so I was kind of like give myself up I
Was thinking was when that door was open was thank God I got that cloak off
It was heavy beautiful and it looked good and
The sleeve get in the way. So I added a different texture to the fire and it desert were live, which was really really cool
but um
There is so much more I can do without the cloak so that little smirk when you see when I'm opening those open. That's me
You're never gonna see it on again
That's why it's a little smug
I'm very grateful. I never thought when I was a kid seven years
I've seen Star Wars and Empire Empire was the movie that changed my life and
I'd rather I decided I'm going to do martial arts
I'm gonna be a Jedi and I'm gonna do gymnastics and I didn't as a kid I think Rob say hey
I'm gonna be the bad guy, but I love it
And so I have to be here but never I would never change it
My life has changed because of Star Wars. I've met so many wonderful people
It's wonderful, man, you know, of course, you just met so many great people along the way
Oreos makutsi in dip in 20 man, I think about you post some you guys
I've gotta be dog more steak last get out mature. Come on
It keeps me motivated
happy
Here does it keep you away from the Oreos?
You Dobie - well
It's kept me young and happy
The thing that's which is wonderfully ironic. I mean when I was 37, I think I started out by playing 120
Went back to my own age which was why I was able to do the part as the senator in in the first movie that
Throughout my life since I was 32 7 every now and again and into what the Star Wars movie came along
While I was doing other things other movies other TV things with maintenance stage work and also running a theater
in fact when we were doing the Phantom Menace
I was very pleased that we were at leaves done
which was just about half an hour's drive from
My theater so I could go in and do a bit of work in the morning and then go and do a bit of filming
So it's been very much
sequentially
Part of my life. I
Was only very disappointed of course that at the end of Jedi he was as George said now he's dead
so I
made the assumption that we never ever see him again, and I guess that's
Remain with us for the time being Star Wars is about both the dark side. And of course the heroes
whoa
Cake cake cake cake cake hehe I love cakeeee
We need a big cake
Destiny IS Cake. A chocolate cake.
