I listened to a podcast last night called Godawful Movies. They were talking about The Phantom Menace. I disagree with many of their points. One reoccurring theme was how creepy the relationship between Anakin and Padme was. They went on and on about it. What made it funny was, they kept talking about how hot Natalie Portman was. But the thing is, she was under age at the time also. So who was creepy? Lol
You can always use the Hive as a sounding board
Just saying, at least we share your obsession of tinkering with rpgās
For me, it wasn't so much as the age difference. At the beginning of the second movie, assuming 18 and 24, that isn't that much of a gap. I wouldn't have had problems with that. I just felt like the relationship was a little rushed and a little forced and because they had to fit it all into one movie, it just came out a little wonky.The thing with Padme & Anakin that some people seem to conveniently forget, while Portman was 17-18 at the time, the character Padme was 14. The age difference of the characters is mere 6 years, and by the time their relationship became romantic, Anakin was already young adult.
There was a time known as the Godswar, which is when the Caretakers (the collective name for the deities of the world) fought against the Great Old Ones. The deities fought in many instances against the Great Old Ones and lands were shifted, created or destroyed. Many wonders remain from that time and many horrors.If thereās not a huge meteor strike or āmagical nuke oopsā in the history of that world, Iām going to be pissed. That circular sea in the middle just screams for something like that.
Yep. Nothing in the ads or reviews- even by fans- made me want to see another SW movie. Phantom Menace was THAT bad to me.You haven't seen any of them since?
