Padmé Amidala in the Darth Plagueis novel

Feb 09, 2012 17:04

Even though Padmé is almost completely absent from the novel, it makes several major revelations about her or connected to her. Yes, this post contains SPOILERS.

- Now we know why she is so messed up. ( Lengthy meta, comparisons with the movies, and overanalyzing )

Next: TPM in 3D

Aaagh I was going to ask if you were going to see it in theatres! I'm almost embarrassingly excited for it. Along with RotJ TPM is my favourite as well as being the movie that started the entire Star Wars thing for me so the temptation to go with my hair in some kinda crazy Amidala-esque updo is huuuge. I'm gonna lose my shit watching this movie on the big screen again.

Also you should go to school and do a thesis on Star Wars or something. It'd be legit.

I don't think they are even showing it in my town. Certainly not in English. I'll have to go to Montreal.

Same. :D

I know someone who has done a thesis on Star Wars. But I don't see how I would have the opportunity while studying law or undergrad psychology. (I don't want to have to write a thesis on anything, ever!)

Hey, I resemble this remark! Well, I guess not really, because my thesis was more about the fanfic. But still. Academic theses on pop culture products FTW! I support this endeavor. Do you know if it's published?

I don't think he has published it. And no, I haven't read it. It's technical filmmaking stuff, not really my specialty.

Hey, look, notifications are working again … for now?

Hrrrm. Technical stuff … no, not my cup of tea, either. Nevertheless, I feel compelled to express solidarity.
