The ONLY People In the Empire Vader Took Orders From & Why - Star Wars Explained

I imagine being in a room with vader probably felt like being in a room with Stalin

That was very nice to say. I hope you have a great day as well sir.

You don't want Darth Vader to be a human resource manager. Instead of a pink slip you'll be getting a force choke

I think Tarkin and Vader were equals. The rest warch out.

He's a lord !!!

..according to lucas imagination or..

Umm, there were not only two

There was a second Vader would work with and respected that was Thrawn

Rank....Lord Vader....Nuff said.

Darth Vader the elite

I think I want to learn more about Moff Tarkin.

I prefer to think of Vader as the Vice President.

They both also used fear as a tactic. Vader would kill anyone or anything as talking designed goofy ass weapons that were scary but sucked in large scale use

Imagine being the first person that insulted Darth Vader

How did Vader not feel anything about who Leia Skywalker was when he captured her and took her to the death star

You forget he also served Grand General Cassio Tagge and at one point another random Moff.

His rank is he does not screw around.

But they did refer to him by a rank, Lord!

He was all referred to as lord.

I suppose after he defeated sidious in return of the Jedi, vader was very briefly defacto the supreme leader of the empire

Vaders my field supervisor he comes to check my out post once a week,long live the empire.🎉

Quiet an over complicated video

Even I knew when I watched Star Wars the first time in 1977 at the last drive in theater in Louisiana at the age of 7 that Grand Moff Tarkin was the boss of the Death Star.

Don’t they call him Lord Vader in the original trilogy

He’s Lord Vader. The Emperors right hand. No one above him! He’s the boss when the boss is not around!

This may be giving the people responsible for Star Wars too much credit, but what if Vader's "lack of rank" was to make Vader on edge and envious and jealous of his reputation. He constantly had to prove himself to others and never truly "fit in." This kept him darksiding perpetually.

I mean he would technically be Moff Vader

Drop the background music level dude. Very difficult listening along having it going over your voice

Vader the GOAT

Darth Vader’s authority as the Emperor’s enforcer and Supreme Commander of the Imperial forces vary

In most situations he would have authority over most Imperial Officers

But in some cases like the Death Star, Tarkin who was given authority by the Emperor was given command over Vader

When Vader was temporarily demoted after Yavin, Grand General Tagge had command over him, until Vader proved himself over rogue scientist Cylo’s insurgency, and Tagge was seemed incompetent for allowing Cylo to take the Executor with the Emperor on it. This gave Vader justification to do away with Tagge and take the Executor himself

It really depends whether the Emperor gives an Imperial Officer the authority over Vader, which even then the situation may change and Vader may get the advantage

What about Grand Admiral Thrawn..? Just the same thing there or does Vader actually go to respect what he can do! Or are you thinking it’s just the same thing as there?

Tarkin was the only reason why Motti didn't leave the Death Star briefing room in a body bag.

There’s actually a historical parallel, Hitler set up a tangled command structure so that no one person or group could over power him, he also set it up so there was conflicting chains of command he did it so his subordinates would spend more time bickering than coordinating, I think he also just enjoyed watching the shit show.

His rank is "Bad motherfucker, who can choke the shit out of you from across the room".

I had no issue watching Star Trek and Star Wars growing up in the 80s and 90s. Whichever series ends up less Woke/Marxist will win out.

Given the way everything is set up it is almost along the lines of what you'd see in WWII with commanders such Eisenhower and Montgomery. Depending on the overall situation and campaign was who had the final say but Eisenhower held supreme command of U.S. forces while Montgomery held supreme command over British forces, yet the two didn't out rank each other so really it would depend what Roosevelt and Churchill ultimately decided on given the situation, much like if Palpatine have Tarkin the order he would have had to answer to Vader the same way we see certain commanders do in Empire and Return of the Jedi. But with Death Star operations Vader had to follow Tarkin's lead.

In Legends another person that, while Vader would not take orders from, was nonetheless able to at least "handle" Vader was Grand Admiral Thrawn. While Vader is easily more powerful than Thrawn in a physical sense, Thrawn was always a better tactician and knew how to win a war of wills with Vader.

Ok, so, just clarifying, it doesn't insult Darth Vader that we know that he's really little orphan Annie; or his opinions on sand, got it. Though, one thing confuses me, he hates sand because it's coarse, rough, and gets everywhere, but what about snow? I mean, it's wet, and cold, and it gets everywhere.

Vader always struck me as needing a shag 😂😂

The question of Vader's rank makes me wonder, what's he pulling down after taxes? :)

Tarkin, like Thrawn, knew Vader was Anakin and had worked with him before his fall. The mutual respect built there carried over to when he became Vader.

dont they say hes supreme commander? isnt that a rank?

You do video upon how Vader's suit functions in keeping his remaining body Alive. But, have talked about how choose design of helmet and face mask.

If looking at it in corporate terms Vader and Tarkin are peers or colleagues. Equal ranking in different departments. Looking into novels and stories, it's revealed they have mutual respect for one another dating back during The Clone War and during the Empire.

Tarkin is essentially a sith lord without force powers and treated as such. Vader and Palpatine respect him for being just as ruthless as they are and effective as a leader.

Vada was second to the emperor and everyone new it he was Lord Vada and everyone but the Emperor bowed to him .

Mr. Vader & Mr. Tarkin is a best friend like comolot each other

Grand General Tagg?

Robot Chicken skit where the Death Star officers had a meeting to show how to fake being choked to keep Vader thinking he can force choke people.
