>Are you an angel?What was Lucas thinking?
Does that imply that Christianity exists in that world?
>>223601751If ducks exist, why not angels?>>223601765We already know hell exists.
>>223601751Angels are an species of interdimensional travellers. Since Star Wars is confirmed to exist in "the real world" it makes sense that the same celestial god beings that occasionally visit us, would also visit people a long time ago in a galaxy far far away.Also, ET's species makes a cameo appearance in the prequels so thay confirms that Star Wars takes place in the same universe as regular Earth.
>>223601751He was thinking about the toys and that sweet sweet sponsorship deal he'll get with Coke in Episode II
>>223601765>that worldit's our world you numbskull
it's a good line. Charming and romantic. Girls love it.
>>223601816>Star Wars takes place in the same universe as regular EarthI'm surprised they didn't make a Star Trek meets Star Wars crossover yet. Probably gonna happen when Disney eventually buy Paramount/WB
>kicks Jar Jar in the crotchTPM is so childlish
>>223601861Star Wars takes place in the distant past, Star Trek is in the future, they're not happening at the same time
>>223601878Both settings have time travel now.
>>223601765The Diathim,[4] also known as the Angels[1] as a result of spacers mistaking them for such beings,[4] were a mysterious species of winged sentients[1] who inhabited the moons[5] of the planet Iego, specifically living on the[1] largest moon,[6] Millius Prime.[1] Tall and beautiful, the beings called Angels had blonde hair, blue eyes, shining white skin and had a yellow aura.[5] The Diathim stood at 2.35 meters, or 7 feet, 9 inches tall, and were capable of flight, due to their six wings.[2]A species who were cautious around others, legends were developed around the Diathim,[4] with stories of their reputed beauty being spread from the Outer Rim Territories to the Core Worlds by deep space spacers. They were regarded as potentially being the most beautiful beings in the known universe.[5] When Anakin Skywalker first met his future wife Padmé Amidala, he compared her appearance to that of an Angel.[3] By 21 BBY[7] during the Clone Wars, the Confederacy of Independent Systems had conquered Millius Prime, forcing the peaceful Diathim from their homes. Skywalker and Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi would later meet an Angel in the midst of their mission to Iego, during which they liberated Iego and its moons by destroying the LaserWeb Defense Station left by the Separatists.[1]
>>223601903that's fine but that would be stupid
>>223601911Since when a stupid script is below Hollywood? Star Trek had Greek gods at some point, a portal to another galaxy in the past would not be that farfetched
>>223601751That Anakin had the Chad energy even as a kid
>>223601943What was Lucas trying to say?
>>223601905I love star wars autism
>>223601905>who inhabited the moons[5] of the planet Iegolego planet? eu is so fucking gay holy shit
>>223601973I always love that when people are trying to excuse Watto being a stereotype of a greedy foreign man that everybody thinks is supposed to represent a Jew they always say: "I always thought he was supposed to be Italian/Greek"Like that makes it any better lmao, if one stereotype is offensive then they all are. Personally I don't find stereotype-based comedy to be offensive at all as long as it's not overly malicious.
Lucas expects us to care about the Naboo situation just by throwing lines like this, without showing anything
>>223602042italians/greeks didn't participate in the slave trade
>>223601822Why is our world in another galaxy, then.
>>223601751God is real
>>223601751Why do Star Wars fans always talk about the bad parts of Star Wars films as if they are the funniest, most awkward things that have ever been put on film?Not that the prequels aren't awkward films, but you hear lines like this one all the time, so why is it so spacial when Star Wars does it?Even the infamous "I don't like sand" bit is not AS BAD as people make it out to be. It's an awkward piece of dialogue, most films have at least 1 weird or out-of-place line here and there.
>>223602170Name a few examples of dialogue as bad as the I Hate Sand speech in similarly budgeted/reaching movies.
>>223602076What was even the justification for setting a blockade around the planet? And I don't mean Palpatine's contrived plan, I mean what did the trade federation used as an excuse for starving the planet? "Nabooans are terrorists", or something?
>>223602001Very good reading saar
>>223602186Most of the dialogue in the Matrix sequels. Some actors try to make it work but there's just something so jarring about the line deliveries in those films.And that Architect scene, where he starts vomiting the entire thesaurus over poor old Neo...and yes, that scene got memed on too, but not as nearly as the dialogue from the Prequels and I think it's even more laughably bad.The original Star Wars itself film has the line: "Only a master of evil, Darth" when Vader tells Obi-Wan that he's now the master of the two....that's possibly the worst line I've ever heard in an otherwise excellent film, it seriously feels like a placeholder line that was just left there because George Lucas forgot to come up with something better
>>223601751jew or not prime portman was a 10/10
>>223602170Retards love their anti-Lucas memes, it makes them feel like they're smart. Insisting on those nitpicks is like their way to tell themselves "See? I'm right, George Lucas is objectively a hack and I know better than him what Star Wars is all about"
>>223601905>most beautiful beings in the galaxy>blonde hair, blue eyes, shining white skinWhat is Lucas trying to tell us here?
>>223601751"How do I explain the creepy sexual tension?"
>>223602820She's one of those women who are only attractive because they have a killer "face card". Her body, while definitely not bad, is fairly generic.There's a women who lives next door to me who's another great example. Great face and she has this weird, sexy charm to her...but her body is painfully average
>>223602226Naboo kept inflating their currency to buy cheaper shit from the trade federation
>>223602170I have not seen Clones for a long time, but I don't remember "I don't like sand" as particularly bad. A bit clunky, but to me it just showed Anakins awkwardness in the situation. I think it is just one of the many things that turned into a meme because if you zoom a bit out and take away the context you can make it funny. >>223602186"Somehow Palpatine returned"And to me personally "Assess the situation" in The Odyssey.
>>223601905kek why is star wars the only ip that does this shit
>>223603011Pretty sure there is other Disney stuff that gets this treatment. Avatar must be. And probably Harry Potter. But I don't care enough to look it up.
AGGHHHH THE LITTLE KID SAID SOMETHING CRINGE TO THE GIRL AHHH IM GOING INSANE
>>223603011strange
>>223603009I agree completely with what you said about Anakin's infamous line.What's funny is that I remembered him saying that completely out of the blue, which would make it VERY awkward and jarring, but his remark about his hatred of sand is actually prompted by Padmé, who says:>We used to come here for school retreat. We would swim to that island every day. I love the water. We used to lie out on the sand and let the sun dry us and try to guess the names of the birds singing.And that's when he hits her with his killer flirting skills, but the line actually has a reason to be there and as you said, it's not THAT bad in context, just an awkward bit of dialogue which is appropriate considering he's supposed to be a virginal teenager in the company of an attractive girl that he likes.Which is why it annoys me that Star Wars fans treat the bad dialogue in this franchise as if it's the funniest (or worst) thing in the universe The "Are you an angel?" line, too. Dialogue coming from children is rarely good in films, they always sound too dumb and childish or too mature, so this line is actually really tame compared to some other things you see in films featuring children
>>223603011That's always been so bizarre to me...I mean, something like Harry Potter, which is pretty much taylor-made to be prone to things like this, as both the books and films constantly shove weird names, creatures and spell in your face so you can go "What is that?"But Star Wars at its core is just a series of sci-fi adventure films, the whole "worldbuilding" aspect is just meant to give them a little more personality beyond being a "Flash Gordon meets Dune", so I have no idea why this simple, fun franchise has a lore as elaborate as the Bible...it was all just to sell toys, wasn't it?
>>223603521>"Are you an angel?" line, tootrue. when I first watched it, it just seemed like a normal "stupid kids" thing to say. Angels in scifi as a throwaway line were a bit odd, but not that bad. I think it is more that Star Wars had such a high cultural status for the older generation that the younger generation enjoyed pissing on it out of spite. Like the movie version of a madonna/whore complex.
>>223601765Angels also exist in other religions
>>223601905>Lego planetLmao
>>223601751let me check wookiepedia for what planet angels come from and their astrological sign
>>223603622>lore as elaborate as the Biblebecause it started with a little "fluff", but that fluff and those characters was so intriguing that the fans wanted more. So they kept writing and selling books and later video games.Ewoks and their spinoff movie and tv show were purely for toys though. But that is often how it starts. Someone writes something endearing and from that one or a group keep writing and it grows organically. See Cthulhu, Warhammer, Marvel and DC,...
>>223602820Her eyebrows are too far apart. And what's with those weird knee wrinkles? 4/10, would not bang.
>>223603622the coke thing is because star wars land in the theme parks was supposed to be canonso canon they didn't play star wars music because if you lived in star wars you wouldn't hear the musicand they weren't about to not sell sodas for ten dollars so they made coke canon
>>223601765remember when Han Solo said "I see you in hell"
>>223602131True, but if the Jews get cold feet from things like this it's their own fault lmaoAll I'm saying is that it's pretty black and white in this situation, either all stereotypes are offensive or none of them areI'm not at all bothered by them so I'd be perfectly fine with him being a caricature of a sleazy Italian guy (I'm italian and sleazy middle aged men aren't exactly rare over here)
>>223603941That's possibly the saddest, most cynical thing I've ever seen. It sounds like something you'd see in The Simpsons.
>>223602131>italians/greeks didn't participate in the slave trade>>223604012>TrueWHAT? Please Lord, let this be a samefag! Two people cannot be this retarded.
>>223603956Cue 35 manuals explaining how Star Wars hell is different than regular hell
>>223604049depends how you look at it. The alternative view is that a standard drinks stand would show that they don't care about immersion and it does not matter if the coke stand is in a baseball stadium, a museum or a theme park. I would argue that the extra effort to theme it is an improvement. "making it canon" is bs of course.
>>223604066>hell is a cavernous lava region on the planet Infernus and is run by Darth Satanus, a sith that was once a jedi called Lucy Pherr, who fell from the grace of the Force (who is female)
>>223604220And then fans will carefully explain how Lucy Pherr is actually inspired by the entity in Christian mythology known as Lucifer and how mind blowing that is
>>223604138I agree on that, it's just comical how they just HAVE to suck corporate cock so badly they have to introduce goddamn Coca-Cola into Star Wars lmaoJust sell some generic diabetes inducing drink (10 bucks a bottle, of course) and call it "Glub Shitto elixir", who cares if it's Coke or not
>>223601751its so funny he admitted to wanting to cast her after seeing her in leon
>>223604563how is that funny?
>>223604667because hes admitting to being a nonce
>>223604682>I like this girl's performance in this film is not the same as>I want to fuck this girl
>>223604220>who is femaleGot me at the end. Nice.
>>223604682Leon is an anti nonce film. I know it's hard not to project your own pedo mind onto others
>>223604451>who cares if it's Coke or notThere are people who go to Galaxy's Edge with their family who have no idea or care about Star Wars and don't want to say some stupid thing or have to ask a bunch of questions when they just want a simple drink. It's about pleasing both aisles of their guests. It's harmless, all things considered. They aren't shoving in Coca-Cola billboards or doing cringe product placements with the characters in all of their Star Wars shows or movies. It's literally just for the parks.
>>223601869it's a children's movie franchise designed to sell toys, anon
>>223601911I’m guessing you’re not that familiar with Star Trek or Star Wars then
>>223604062who gives a shit
