The year is 2025

Revenge of the Sith is still the only actually good Star Wars film to date

"NOOOO THIS STUPID PUPPET GARBAGE FROM THE 1970s IS THE BEST NOOOOOO" just lmao boomer

A movie with acting this bad can't be good, zoomer, no matter how many epic lightsaber battles it has.

Gen X favors the OT. Millenials love the prequels. Zoomers don’t give a fuck about Star Wars because it’s nothing special anymore.

be Anakin

buy snake oil salesmanship pitch about a miracle cure for your healthy wife

proceed to slaughter children

meet wife, disagree on politics

kill her yourself

Great story.

Just because you're jealous of CHADakin Skywalker making all the ladies soak their panties doesn't mean it's bad acting, boomeroid.

Anakin.jpg - 1280x720, 41.37K

Reminder that Anakin going from "Le chosen one Jedi" to "school shooter youngling slayer 9000" happened in less than 10 minutes and made no sense

sigh. another failed prequel revisionist thread
every night you try this nonsense now. give it a rest you're not changing anyone's minds

millenials are basically zoomers and therefore their opinions amount to nothing

Narratively, there's actually nothing wrong with this. Anakin is decidedly ruled over by his passions. Obi Wan snuck onto Padme's ship and he believed she betrayed him for Obi Wan, so he did what any man wants to do when he believes his woman has betrayed him - strangle her.

rlm won
cope and seethe

It geniunely has the greatest story of all the films. 1 and 2 are thrash though and the sequels are boring.

The idea of the prophesy being misinterpreted was in the movie boomertard. If you weren't so fucking drunk all the time maybe you'd have the functioning brain cells to PAY ATTENTION TO THE MOVIE.

Anakin's arc is that he's a retard. Believes Shiv when he lies, believes he's cucked when he wasn't, ruins his life and everyone else's.

It does feel like it, even after you rewatch it multiple times. This nigga went from an inmature fella with anger issues to a full blown terrorist children slayer

The most successful re-released film of all time is currently Revenge of the Sith

Mike is on record saying JEW JEW Abrams should direct Star Wars

I think RLM has been vindicated.... FOR BEING WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING lmao.

Anakin giving into anger causes him to murder sand raider children 3 years previous

speed watcher speed watching

she came out from the same ship. Why would two people ever be in the same spaceship if they're not fucking?

Narrative excellence.

Yes, Anakin is absolutely a destructive figure. Do not leave out the part where he kills Sheev at the end too. The prophesy about a chosen one bringing about balance to the force wasn't wrong, just misinterpreted by the Jedi.

a miracle cure for your healthy wife

Was Padme even sick or dying in the first place?

Yeah but he had ties to them. Those people killed his mom. What did the younglings do to him?

He didn't kill Sheev.

somehow the sequels aren't canon

He literally talks about how he murdered the children of the Sand People for what they did to his mother. Prequel haters never even watched the movies, they seriously just watched the RLM reviews and pretended they had actual original opinions on these films.

And as Lucas said, Sheev can see the future. And he's the most powerful force user of all time. Sheev didn't consider mechanical Vader a threat.

No. Anakin had "visions" of her dying. Sheev convinced him to turn to the dark side by saying he can save her, and after he turns says "ok, I can't save her actually but if you continue to be my servant surely between the two of us can think of a way." Anakin continues to obey him.

Disney Star Wars literally actually isn't canon. Anakin killed Sheev. That is how the OT ends.

Yeah, but he did it out of revenge for his mom. The younglings did nothing to him and even saw him as a master, yet he cold bloddedly murdered them

Neither are the prequels.

Disney owns Star Wars. They decide the canon.

And Anakin goes to Yoda for help, Yoda was all like, Death should be pursued because the force is good and you become one with it at death. Hubris is a hell of a drug.

The circumstances were indeed different but don't pretend like he "killed children out of nowhere". He did it once before. It's easier to do it a 2nd time, even if the circumstances are different.

Anaking: AAAAAAA PLEASE SAVE ME MISTER SPACE CHANCELOR!! I HAD A BAD DREAM!

Space Hitler: lol lmao, ok fagget, go kill those kids and then I'll help you lol

ANAKUNG: YES MISTER PALPY!!

Bravo Lucas

he got filtered by classical acting

And I don't care. Star Wars ended when Lucas sold it. It's done.

What you think doesn't matter.

Yes it is, you Disney shill, and get this, Star Wars fans gave the Prequels BILLIONS of dollars from purchasing the prequel merchandise! Death to Disney!!!!!

They gave that money to Disney, genius.

from my point of view the Jedi are evil!

Do people seriously defend this garbage

Fans bought the prequel merchandise to the tune of Billions, anon. And I was one of them

t. Near 50 year old

I was there when Episode 3 came out. Don't fucking lie. Everything fucking loved it. The excitement was high from WORD OF MOUTH. Episode I and II were disappointments, but Episode III was the one where people were like "no, seriously, go see it. Lucas nailed it this time. Yup, this is seriously the best Star Wars." Star Wars was back and the reason why the brand remained so strong was because Lucas delivered his magnum opus at the very end.

It still feels abrupt. I mean the first time it was inmaturity, he got mad and did what he did. He felt bad about it afterwards.
The second time he thought about it and had more time to stop, and it wasn't just an anger outburst, he saw this as necessary and did not feel any remorse.
He was shown as a troubled guy with a "good heart" in episode 2. In episode 3 that was gone, and he was doing everything out of selfish purposes with no remorse or empathy for what he does

Demonstrably false.

RotS is slightly better than AotC. It's shit, mate.

What are you on about? George made that money 20 years ago and Disney makes a fraction from the old Star wars merchandise. Lucas owns most of the old stuff still. nu wars is 100% Disney doesn't make a dime.in.Merchandise.

turning darth vader into some edgy crying emo is not what I would call magnum opus but whareva

Wrong.

whats up with shitty bait sw thread spam

oh_n-.jpg - 900x800, 136.83K

It is one of the three worth watching

anh

tpm

rots

If you marathon episode 1,2, and 3 somewhat back to back, it doesn't really come out of nowhere. I mean, even in Episode 1, the Jedi council is like "yeah we sense something dark about this kid." In Episode 2 he murders children out of revenge for what the sand people did to his mom. In Episode 3, he murders children to fuel his Sith powers to save the one he loves (of course there is a price to pay for these actions, of course it all goes to shit-fuckery in the end).

The Order 66 scene is the only real worthwhile moment in the entire prequels

You weren't there zoomy.

nooooo Vader was supposed to be le badass superhero that puts on sunglasses and doesn't turn around to look at explosions noooooo

ok, child.

to fuel his Sith powers to save the one he loves

but padme wasn't really dying, and he didn't really got any new sith powers either

the whole thing felt so forced and convulsed

This is true!

he was prophecized to bring balance to the force, 10 minutes ago there were thousands of jedi and a handful of sith... after order 66 there are a handful of a jedi and a handful of sith

To this very day, I don't know why ROTJ is so hated. Say what you want about the little tribal koala bears BTFO'ing Imperial soldiers (allegory for Vietnam, c'mon) but Lucas absolutely nailed it with the throne room showdown. Luke vs Vader vs Palpatin was executed PERFECTLY. And that is the most important part of the story.

kek

*cries* I haaaate you Obi Wan!! I haaaate you Yoda!!! I HATE EVERYBODY!!!! *cries more*

What sort of a fucking manchidlren could like something like this

THE CONTEXT WAS DIFFERENT

Why do you think Disney's emphasis was on Nu Wars!

they all gang up on her and shoot her like 90 times as she lays dying on the floor

This shit is so beautifully brutal. I will never understand prequel haters. The imagery is so powerful it sticks with you.

NOOOOOOO THE SEQUELS ARE ACTUALLY BETTER THAN THE PREQUELS!

I have actually heard demented and delusional boomers say this

Well, I did not get the impression that he was gonna turn up like that to be honest. Yeah there were red flags all over the place, I just didn't expect it to be that bad

after order 66 there are a handful of a jedi and a handful of sith

Not according to the EU, just look at all those Jedi Survivors

Shows a propensity for killing children when under duress

Different Context

He doesn't say that though.

"where is ... padme..."
"nooooooooo"

cringe.png - 488x489, 308.37K

He wasn't under duress in episode 2 though, he just got mad

It's cheesy. It's corny. But by that point in the story you are either all in or you are checked out anyway.

He literally does

I hate you Obi Wan!

*proceed to burn himself to death while Obi Wan watches*

Also, why did Obi did nothing while he burning? weren't they good friends?

lol
lmao even

Because 2 Minutes of good imagery and music don't make up for 3 entire movies of crap

i remember watching it for the first time and i was honestly enjoying the film until this point

Bad acting

Wrong and the first móviles have fucking Hamill

It's probably the worst of the last 3. Imagine running out of budget for the sequence the whole three movies have been leading up to when you're original goal was surpassing titanic with phantom menace.

attack of the clones

That one was pretty bad also, it's close to the worst but it didn't have

nooooooooooooooooooo

I know the sequels never happened but what a wasted opportunity to not give rey a staff/double bladed saber

Disney's shill marketing strategy is to shit all over the founding movies of the brand

Bold

he wasn't under duress

No it fundamentally changed him. Dude was acting crazy and his speech to Padme before his duel with Obi Wan showed he peaked in arrogance. And that also doesn't come out of nowhere. In episode 2 we see his arrogance as well when he was talking to Padme about his grievances with the Jedi for failing to recognize him. It just goes full blown in Episode 3.

He still loses to Obi Wan and that clouds your judgement, but he does fundamentally change after Order 66.

Not film.

Nobody forced him to do it or persuaded him, he did cause he got mad

All 3 are absolutely GOATed now that Disney fucked up with the nutrilogy. Seriously

Episode I introduced Podracing and Darth Maul which was cool

Episode II had the clone and battle at the end

Episode III had the epic showdown

Light side just seems to be more OP than the Dark side. Doesn't matter how dark you go.

Anakin suffered from Hubris, as did all other Jedi.

Age up Anakin

Get rid of Qui-Gon

Focus on Anakin and Obi-Wan's relationship

Make Dooku the main secondary Antagonist for the entire trilogy

Make Amidala an actual Monarch

Make Palpatine Amidala's political advisor as Naboo's senator

Have Padme introduce Anakin to Palpatine

Have Amidala actively seduce Anakin in an attempt to make him her king

Have Palpatine orchestrate this relationship to turn Anakin

Have Padme and Palpatine convince Anakin that authoritarianism is a great form of government

Make the clones the antagonists that the seperatists use

Make the republic army composed of draftees to better sell society militarizing

Have the clone wars last longer

Have the Jedi Council officially protest the war to build animosity towards the order

Have Anakin and Obi-wan defy the council to fight in the war

Padme actively gets pregnant to lock in Anakin

Anakin now has visions of Obi Wan killing Padme

Make Palpatine attempt to kill Padme which Obi-wan foils

Palps convinces Anakin Obi-wan kidnapped Padme and the Jedi Council is going to execute her

Order 66 is now a percieved rescue op

Make Padme give birth during the jedi temple seige

Padme dies of complications because it's a temple not a hospital

Obi-wan and Yoda take the babies and Anakin can find Padme's dead body.

Anakin and Obi duel in the depths of Coruscant. You can have Anakin get burnt to a crisp at an industrial plant

Trilogy ends with Vader's Transformation and Yoda and Obi hiding the twins

I just fixed the prequels, you're welcome

Made more sense when Palpatine made Anakin suspect Padmé was cheating on him with Obi-Wan. Cutting it makes Anakin look schizophrenic

they knew about force healing before we did

he did it cause his mom got killed by the sand raiders

then again the Jedi not saving his mom and the rest of the slaves in episode 1 makes no sense either

uh well balance means both

except it doesn't, in fact the entire ending of the OT is the destruction of the sith brought balance and luke was going to restore the jedi order (at least until nu wars ruined that as well), and then we have word of god from Lucas himself were he stated the sith needed to be destroyed to bring balance, in other words no anakin going full school shooter wasn't necessary to the prophecy, which itself was a retarded narrative decision to bring in

Don't forget, Sheev could see the future and could cloud even Yoda's future sight.

6451.jpg - 373x500, 30.86K

Yup. Say what you want but the prequels showed new and inventive and creative things. New locations, new cultures, new ships, new designs. Some absolutely kino ship designs I might add. What do the sequels do? Rehash the OT, but everything is worse, and the story goes nowhere lmao.

Jedi not picking a fight with the Hutts made no sense

Just not having sheev controlling both the Senate and the trade federation could improve it

Yeah the dark side is not without its prowess. Sheev was very powerful. He ironically underestimates Anakin, believes him to be fully bent over to the dark side.

Yeah, this, the Jedi had nothing to do with that.

You telling me that the Jedi, the paragons of freedom, good, virtue and all that's good in the galaxy are afraid of fighting against some retarded evil slime alien mobster?

Who wrote that shit

Easily the best Star Wars movie and the only kino one.

The sequels didn’t just rehash the OT. They killed Luke, Han, and Leia to elevate new DEI characters. And then called the fans racist and sexist for not liking those wooden planks Finn and Rey.

Yeah but ROTJ suffers from the problem that it has both the highest and lowest points of the film edited together, the fantastic throne room climax and space battle keep getting interrupted by aliens introduced around 20 minutes ago instead of focusing on the band of rebels and characters we've had for 3 movies. To make it worse this problem is exacerbated by the fact that the already bloated cast has relegated Han, Leia, Chewbacca, and the droids to borderline uselessness in favor of Lando and the Ewoks. There's just so much shit going on, people lynchpin the Ewoks but they're just a convenient scapegoat for what is mostly editing and pacing problems unresolved in the ESB -> ROTJ transition and the really useless second act of ROTJ. I don't get the hate for the film as a whole, I agree, but I very much agree that it was rushed and not really how most people would prefer it be done. I don't thoroughly agree with Kasden's "everyone dies lol" but his tight focus on Luke's conclusion I think sort of peeks through and the film suffers from trying to compromise. But in the end, it's about family

In the end Sheev also suffered from Hubris. He thought he had Vadar on a leash.

Which is why so many systems abandoned hope and joined the separatist.

The Jedi were the Senate lap dogs.

It probably would just feel too familiar for Han to be in the Millennium Falcon assaulting the new Death Star. I mean, that plot point is already kind of a rehash of ANH (which is it's own flaw you could say) but I think it's elevated by having Lando there instead. This is his redemption arc. I kind of personally don't mind Leia and Han becoming sidelined because.... that is exactly what they are.... side characters. They have very little to do in ROTJ but.... so what? This is Luke's story. We started the trilogy with mainly Luke, and we are ending the trilogy with him too.

It has a lot of problems

the plan to rescue Han is convoluted and makes no damn sense

Boba Fett is killed in the most unsatisfactory way

Han is pointless for most the film despite how hard the characters work to save him.

the second death star is such a lazy rehash even if the space battle is fucking amazing

Endor is poorly paced and takes up too much of the run time.

The ewoks may be cute but they really aren't compelling enough to believe they could defeat the Empire

Yoda and especially Ben are sort of shoehorned in just to reinforce that Vader is indeed Luke's dad rather than to give any sort of last words of wisdom.

Endor is a rather visually monotonous environment and doesn't lend itself as well to the scifi setting as Tatoonie, Hoth, or cloud city.

I really hate that fucking Yub Nub song. It was Jedi Rocks before Jedi Rocks

Now to be fair just about everything revolving around Luke redeeming Vader is fucking peak star wars. Those scenes alone are what elevate Return despite all of its numerous problems.

The prequels would be 100 times better if they werennot held down by being Star Wars movies, they suck at being Star Wars and when they start getting good they are held back by being Star Wars.

the plan to rescue Han is convoluted and makes no damn sense

I agree with this. Would have been way more effective to have Luke go in there and BTFO everyone just to show "oh shit, this dude is like a serious OP Jedi now. He is ready to face Vader and Dark Emperor now". BUUUUUT we also got the leia slave outfit. I am not kidding, that shit is kino. It's kind of all worth it in the end. And shutup, you know I am right.

Boba Fett is killed in the most unsatisfactory way

I don't care about this. Fans have elevanted Boba Fett for no reason. He's a meme, and gets dumped like one too.

Han is pointless for most the film despite how hard the characters work to save him.

I agree with this, but I also don't think it's a very serious flaw for a side character to get sidelined in the grand scheme of things.

the second death star is such a lazy rehash even if the space battle is fucking amazing

The reveal that the battle-station is fully operational is actually kino. Like... it's a rehash but with a slight twist. The rebels believed they would destroy it before it gets built, turns out it is finished and they are being led into a trap.

Endor is poorly paced and takes up too much of the run time.

I agree with this.

The ewoks may be cute but they really aren't compelling enough to believe they could defeat the Empire

I don't really mind this. It's clearly meant to be a "David vs. Goliath" thing. Yes these unlikely little creatures completely BTFO the empire. It's kind of silly, sure.

Yoda and especially Ben are sort of shoehorned in just to reinforce that Vader is indeed Luke's dad rather than to give any sort of last words of wisdom.

No I think it's good that they are there. There is some explaining that is due.

Endor is a rather visually monotonous environment and doesn't lend itself as well to the scifi setting as Tatoonie, Hoth, or cloud city.

Maybe... yeah. I like Endor. In terms of a "visual feast" look no further than the Imperial Scout troops. (1/2)

Leia-cosplay.jpg - 538x960, 26.55K

Endor is a rather visually monotonous environment and doesn't lend itself as well to the scifi setting as Tatoonie, Hoth, or cloud city.

And yeah finshing my last point. Maybe Endor isn't visually super interesting (just a big fucking forest) we did get the Scout Troopers which are my favorite Imperial solider designs in SW. Still visually pleasing.

I really hate that fucking Yub Nub song. It was Jedi Rocks before Jedi Rocks

Yeah.

1) Anakin had already taken his first step towards being a genocidal maniac in the second film. He let his anger induced a murderous rage and slaughtered everyone in the vicinity. Yeah sandpeople aren't real people, but still. He had already begun to slide down the slippery slope.

2) Even when he wasn't going off the reservation Anakin's job was to hack things with his lightsaber. He spent his whole life in neverending conflict since he was a young child. He killed countless species of things on countless planets. He'd seen who knows how many people die. Violence was not abhorrent to him. It was his job. He just decapitated Dooku earlier in the film. Killing people was not some crazy heel turn, it was something he'd already done before, probably many times.

3) He'd been a padawan himself and knew they were armed, had aptitude with the force and had some training. We see them fight back with their own lightsabers. So in his mind it wasn't slaughtering innocent unarmed kids but more like taking out a regiment of child soldiers. Still unethical but not an act of pure unrepentant evil

4) He'd always been ambitious and frustrated with the rules of the Jedi anyway, Sheev had been grooming him for years and when he found Windu about to kill the chancellor it was an irrevocable moment. Either let the guy who had supported him most go down and live with the jedi forever or take the initiative and act on his desire to become more powerful and important. Padme was his excuse but he always kind of wanted it. And once the decision was made no point in half-assing it. If you're a sith you're all the way in. Sheev asked him to do the dirtiest duty first to confirm that Anakin was fully committed and he was.

I still say the prequels have a great overall plot, it's just the moment to moment interactions that are stupid

Made more sense when Palpatine made Anakin suspect Padmé was cheating on him with Obi-Wan. Cutting it makes Anakin look schizophrenic

I would prefer a that fan version of Star Wars in which Quinn Gon was Anakin's real father and Obi cheated him with Padme.
It would have a much more sense.

/thread

the only bad Star Wars movie is Attack of the Clones – and you can literally circumvent it by watching the Clone Wars animated series.

I thought I was the only one with that take on that garbage IP.

Watch the Plinkett reviews.

He could sense the raw power of the dark side from Palpatine and knew he wasn't bluffing. True sidious didn't have the whole technique but Hego Damas has pretty much done and he was witness to it. He simply didn't have time to fully perfect the power because of all the civil war affairs and other machinations.

Would not make any sense at all for Obi Wan to be a scoundrel and an adulterer. Would be an entire different character, jedi in name only.

This sounds like some kind of ridiculous exaggeration missing key information, but no, this is exactly what happens.

The bad guy.... lied??????? NOOOOOO HOW CAN THIS BEEEEE AAAAAAHHHHHHH DISNEY SAVE MEEEEE

The bad guy.... lied??????? I guess I'd better just keep killing whoever he tells me to rather than go keep my wife safe or whatever.

There was going back for Anakin.

prequeltards are ESL

lol

Where did I make a mistake? You're probably the brown stinky esl here, bub.

Oh yeah I see, I made a typo. Yeah English speakers do that sometimes, you brown stinky trash.

Lmao this nigger can't read

I accept your concession.

OT fags have to attack the prequels relying on Disney's mishandling of the sequels

That's a sign of weakness right there, boomer boy.

not directly related, but Padme dying while giving birth was the dumbest shit to me. i've had to headcanon that event as Palpatine killing her remotely cause she's the only person who could've convinced Anakin to switch teams again. as an adult i'm more aware that child birth can be dangerous, but it's fuckin' STAR WARS, NIGGA. THEY GOT SCI-FI TECHNOLOGY and ROBOTS DELIVERING BABIES. SHE SHOULD'VE BEEN SOLID. lol

I enjoy the prequels and I also enjoy the RLM reviews of the prequels. I do not necessarily have to agree with a critique of art in order for me to enjoy it. RLM encouraged a conversation which I think was nice.

I also think Mike has secretly warmed up to the sequels as time has gone on but he's kept it to himself. Maybe he'll admit it as a "deathbed confession" kind of thing one day haha.

I, SISSYcas, JOBBER of the film industry, humbly kneel to:

Iger-sama, my one true love and other master

Cameron-sama, who’s box office I will never surpass

Coppola-sama, who I will never have more Oscars than

Kennedy-sama, who beat the shit out of me so hard I started being attracted to femdom almost as much as I am attracted to men.

Spielberg-sama, whose incomparabily forceful punches crushed my ass-womb like I was Heather O'Rourke

Abram’s-sama, who abandoned my ideas for the sequel trilogy like a used condom (EVEN THOUGH Iger-sama promised that he would listen to my ideas)

Johnson-sama, who’s movie was so bad that it utterly raped the Star Wars franchise to the point of irrelevance

Filoni-sama, who molested the EU with his wolf cock

Lucas is just smart enough to realize there are worse pits of hell Star Wars can fall into outside of Disney.

Well said.

I also think Mike has secretly warmed up to the prequels*

I could honestly forgive a lot of Lucas' shortcomings but backing Disney like this was actually insulting.

Reminder that Anakin went to Yoda about his dreams of Padma dying first, and Yoda told him to let her die. He sided with Palpatin because he was completely convinced that his wife was going to die (like how he saw his mother die in his dreams) and he believed it was the only chance to potentially save Padma.
The Jedi failed Anakin.

andor wants a word

Holy shit all this posting and debating over a movie series for children.

I hope you all battle each other IRL with fluorescent light tubes and die from mercury poisoning.

Don't forget the Clone Wars that last 5+ years between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. Anakin fought on the frontlines in a war for years witnessing death and sorrow every day for half a decade as a young soldier before even finishing his training.

They didn't fail Anakin. He was never supposed to have a wife in the first place. Yoda telling him to let her die was setting his ass straight

Padme with that backless dress

umph, BOING!

How did that work out for Yoda and his Jedi Order?

I do not watch Disney Wars. I watched The Force Awakens, and I won't pretend it was a bad movie, but I will say it was enough for me to see this ship ain't sailing anyplace new. I watched Rogue One and I didn't really like it. I WANTED to like it and people said it was good, and although there were some kino moments, the pacing of the movie is so fucking terrible that I can't say it was a good movie. I did not watch anything else and I do not intend to. Disney will just ruin any good feelings I have towards SW.

look mom, i posted le hot take again, am i special yet? does this make up for all my friendless years?

Don't forget the Clone Wars that last 5+ years between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith.

Hey retard the wars only last 3 years. For fuck sake why is it every retard defending the prequels don't even know the fucking plot of these films?

liking Revenge of the Sith is a hot take

It's not the 2010s anymore you dementia riddled boomer

ROTS.png - 570x880, 319.04K

Doesn't episode 3 happen 5 years after episode 2?

I watched this video recently and it made it pretty obvious that the reason why George sold Star Wars was because he couldn’t get his TV show made, not because of plinkett or fan backlash like a lot of prequel fans say.
youtu.be/JOSkUkIt0QQ
It’s a shame because it actually looked cool.

only millenials like the prequels, faggot

He spent his whole life in neverending conflict

Episode 1 and 2 have a 10 year gap. In that time Anakin was going on silly adventures with Obi-wan, not randomly killing people. The clone wars lasted only 3 years. He spent 9 years as a slave. The majority of his life was spent in relative peace. Hell his slavery really wasn't presented as being that particularly traumatizing in the films.

No, it's 3 years
Attack of clones takes place 22 years before the Battle of Yavin while Revenge of the sith is 19 years prior.

TCW was garbage that did nothing that wasn't already present in the PT to further delve into Anakin's downfall.
Actual Star Wars fans know the peripheral Clone Wars media that released during the PT puts that sorry shit to shame.

You telling me that the Jedi, the paragons of freedom, good, virtue and all that's good in the galaxy are afraid of fighting against some retarded evil slime alien mobster?

I get the sense that there is a lot of fucked up shit in the universe. Yeah the jedi could spend time taking down the hutts, but there's probably millions of things they could do if we go down that line of thinking. Jabba merely represents a microcosm of the Star Wars underbelly in its totality.

Yeah, that wouldn't work. Why Palpatine putting the seed of doubt in Anakin's head works is that it allows Ani to start viewing Padme and Obi-Wan as possible enemies, when they haven't betrayed him. There are still hints of the suspected affair in the film

Anakin saying he senses Obi-Wan was just in padme's apartment

Deleted scene where Palpie tells Anakin she's hiding something

YOU'RE WITH HIM!

Yeah Sheev "planting the seeds" of some fake betrayal works 100x better than it actually happening.

wtf did padme even die of?

hmm.jpg - 336x210, 37.2K

Yes it does, because Obi and Padme would never do that. They loved Anakin and Palpatine's deception would make him more paranoid and mistrusting of the two people who care about him the most

NTA but why not convince Anakin that Obi-wan and the Jedi were going to be responsible for Padme's death?

A broken heart. Read Shakespeare before you comment, you uncultured swine.

Ophelia.jpg - 822x450, 423.91K

NTA but can you elaborate on what you mean by that?

If you're so above it all, just go to the thread talking about the movie you like lmao
Oh wait that's right, you're actually a SW fan too

saw her entire life's work crumble before her very eyes

was rejected and choked out by her lover for whom she was prepared to throw everything away to start over with

knew she was partially responsible for all of this going all the way back to the Battle of Naboo when she let Palpatine whisper in her ear, prompting her infamous vote of no confidence in Chancellor Valorum

People like to bitch about her losing the will to live but honestly it makes sense in the thematic context.

Also the original script called for her to be choked out and violently hurled into a wall, causing her to die of internal injuries. It actually got pretty close to being in the final product, as there's test footage of Hayden Christensen "throwing" a stunt double Padme into a green screen wall.

We see Obi-wan is present in Anakin's visions of Padme's death. If he described this to Palpatine then the best course of action for Sheev is to convince him that Obi-wan is responsible for her death.

Hey dingus. If Padme dies because she lost the will to live than Anakin should have lost it too and died as a result too. Don't use that bullshit excuse like it makes sense.

Anakin: I HATE YOU!

Obi Wan: You were my brother, Anakin. I loved you.

Nah. It's kino.

you are stupid

If Padme dies because she lost the will to live than Anakin should have lost it too and died as a result too.

No those two things do not necessarily follow each other.

Vader's rage and thirst for revenge sustained him. Well that and the suit.

saying its the best movie is the hot take, even for brain dead zoomers

lose your best friend

lose your home

lose your child(ren)

lose your wife who you gave up everything for

lose your limbs

lose your ability to live outside a fucking horrid suit

lose your fucking dick

If Padme lost the will to live because of muh democracy then Anakin should have given up after losing everything he faught for.

Vader's rage sustained him

Dude literally was told he was responsible for Padme's death. He was fucking broken and would have ripped the helmet off himself if "losing the will to live" is a legitimate ailment in star wars.

You're old and stupid. Get out of the fucking way unc nobody cares about literal grandpas Hayden and Obi Wan and bogged walled Hershlag like LMAO you fucking loser. Puppets are kino.

Found the scene. I imagine George may have opted to cut it because he thought it was over the top to the point of gratuity, but I would argue it was just over the top enough to make the drama and tragedy perfect.
