My kid saw phantom menace for the first time today. He said, “That’s the greatest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.”
. . . And the Insta-Death of the narrative.
Well. We’ll always have the first one.
Honestly never understood the hate for midichlorians. It never bothered me or struck me as stupid, silly, whatever people call it.
Wait, why do we hate them?
I mean, they were fairly unpopular among the fandom when the movie came out, and I think they are still somewhat unpopular.
The criticism is that in creating the midichlorians the force became less metaphorical and more literal. Before TPM the reason the Emperor lost wasn’t because he had fewer “force points” than Luke or Vader it was because of a grander poetic narrative that some felt was cheapened by having the bigger number go brrrr
Awww such a cute pic of baby Darth Vader with Obiwan /s
