All Yoda Scenes Comparison - Star Wars The Phantom Menace


A comparison of every scene with Yoda in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. The original puppet from 1999 looked awkward and weird and miscolored. So, in one of his more popular changes, Lucas decided to edit in a CGI Yoda for the Blu-ray release.

I, personally, am one of the few people in the world who prefers the original puppet. It was a sign of how Episode I was the perfect blend of practical effects and CGI, before everything went digital.

This also very subtly highlights one of my biggest issues with Yoda in most of the prequel trilogy, in which how serious he is constantly. I think this is best illustrated in the final shot of Yoda at the parade. The Yoda puppet looks happily enjoying the party, while the updated model looks pissed off. In the original Empire, Yoda was introduced as a jokester. He most certainly had a sense of humor, and all throughout the prequels that characterization was missing.

All Yoda does is act frustrated and confused. He doesn't even have many wise lines in all three films. At least with the puppet, there's an illusion of levity to Yoda. But I don't want to analyze too much, its just a comparison video.

This is the famous Richard Whiteley Gotcha from Noel's House Party. The Gotchas were basically hidden camera style practical jokes which were played on celebrities. During Comic Relief 1999, the Whiteley Gotcha was voted as the all time best one.

Adult beginner violinist - 2 years progress video


"I'm a 24 year old adult beginner from Norway, and I wanted to see if it was possible to learn to play the violin as an adult.

This video is a collection of all the videos I recorded since I first started to play the violin. From week 1 until today.

I didn't think I could get this far in the short amount of time I've played :) I didn't really expect anything when i started. I just wanted to try and see how far i'll get :)

I'm mostly self-taught. I had a teacher last year but only had a total of 8 lessons. Hoping to find a new teacher soon :) I hope you like this video. UPDATE: I got a teacher after 2 years and 5 months. I have one lesson every week. "
