Remember how the overriding conflict in Phantom Menace is TRADE TAXATION?

Yes, I’m watching the prequels JUST to see if I have the same reaction I did in theatres

Wow Jar Jar Binks is actually worse than I remembered.

On Attack of the Clones now, seriously how did they get Anakin SO WRONG. You took one of the greatest villains of all time and just made him a SAD BOI

Also Anakin is like so horny for Padme right out the gate, sir, you were a child when you met.

Ewan’s Alec Guinness impression is literally the only good thing about this trilogy.

Padme is literally in a different elaborate get-up every scene, girl, this is not traveling light, aren’t you supposed to be in hiding.

I have visceral memories of seeing this in theatres and literally laughing out loud at the “romantic” dialogue and it’s JUST as cringe as I remember.

Also I CAN’T GET OVER everyone calling him “Annie” AGAIN THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST VILLAINS OF ALL TIME.

WHY IS PADME IN ALL THESE MIDRIFF BARING OUTFITS WHY.

“Stay with me mom” Hayden says in a COMPLETE MONOTONE.

Soooooo much cultural appropriation in soooooo many of Padme’s costumes though.

My FAVORITE THING: when Padme’s white outfit gets RIPPED IN HALF making it a belly baring top AND YET her intestines aren’t spilling out of her.
