maybe c-3p0? i dont remember. anyway the big thing about the disney movies is that they're totally sexless and not horny at all. and don't give me that poo poo about the homoeroticism of the duddes whose name i forgot, that barely even counts. that smg post about sonic and chili dogs really said it all, does anyone have that handy?

you ever notice how the jedi are like, cops, priests and politicians all wrapped up into one thing? and that they go around the galaxy basically kidnapping children via manufactured consent? creepy

Bongo Bill posted:George Lucas strikes me as the sort of guy who likes to gently caress with people. Got a deadpan sense of humor and doesn't particularly care if nobody else gets the joke. yeah, i dont know how anyone can doubt this after the star wars blu rays.

qui gon may be part of a creepy cop/priest/child abductor cult but at least he gives anakin some recognition. anakin's all like 'look at me im a genius amazing prodigy' and everyone's like 'gently caress off and make me some money'

I dont even think Lucas was really thinking much about the old star wars when he was writing TPM. I think given the time he was probably thinking more about like, Jurassic Park

the last jedi isnt subversive. its about how we just have to deal with star wars being around forever and how thats a fact of life no matter how we feel about it, so might as well make the best of it.

its less subversive and more tricky, in how it fools people into thinking its very conservative heart is somehow radical

thats true i just mean their entire dynamic at the start of esb is kinda like trying to establish where they stand after some kind of implied off screen passion

i like rlm, but the thing i resent about them, and it never gets brought up, is how it contributed to this whole notion that star wars is somehow about the characters and the story. like, gently caress no it isnt, star wars has only ever excelled at one thing: design. without its visual and sound design no one would give a poo poo about its generic characters or story. so basically its all about the spaceships and the lightsabers
