Man....fuck war.

[u/Minimum_Apricot1223 → u/Jaronz]

My kid had to hold back the first time I showed ROTJ to him. I completely blocked that out from my memory until we got close to thet scene. I thought "oh shit, he's not gonna like that " he didn't but he handled it well.

[u/Melodic_Maybe_6305 → u/Minimum_Apricot1223]

Oi, crying over it is also handling it well tho T_T it's so sad

[u/DieselbloodDoc → u/Melodic_Maybe_6305]

That moment is literally how I learned that crying can be good for you. My first memories as a human are of the battle of Hoth in theaters during the digitally mastered re-release in the 90’s. I was more excited for ROTJ than I had ever been for anything g in my tiny life and it didn’t disappoint, but that moment came and I was crushed. I didn’t scream or sob or anything dramatic, but I watched most of the rest of the movie through tears. We don’t know much about those two, but we know what they meant to each other. It’s a children’s movie about space wizards, and I’m not sure there’s anything more important to us as a species.

[u/Minimum_Apricot1223 → u/Melodic_Maybe_6305]

I still well up a bit when I see it, but we know that no one really died.

[u/DogmanDOTjpg → u/Minimum_Apricot1223]

I'm showing my GF the star wars franchise in release order rn. She's never seen any of them and that's tragic cause she is LOVING it, but I'm so jealous that she is able to watch the whole thing with fresh eyes. It really has hammered home how much of a tragedy the story is cause my poor gf was absolutely sobbing at both the end of episode 6 and the end of episode 3

[u/TheFilmMakerGuy → u/DogmanDOTjpg]

Same here! We just started The Phantom Menace today, ending at Rouge One.

War… war never changes.

[u/seekthesametoo → u/Jaronz]

War. War never changes.

In the year 1945, my great-great grandfather, serving in the army, wondered when he’d get to go home to his wife and the son he’d never seen. He got his wish when the US ended World War II by dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

The World awaited Armageddon; instead, something miraculous happened. We began to use atomic energy not as a weapon, but as a nearly limitless source of power.

People enjoyed luxuries once thought the realm of science fiction. Domestic robots, fusion-powered cars, portable computers. But then, in the 21st century, people awoke from the American dream.

Years of consumption lead to shortages of every major resource. The entire world unraveled. Peace became a distant memory. It is now the year 2077. We stand on the brink of total war, and I am afraid. For myself, for my wife, for my infant son – because if my time in the army taught me one thing: it’s that war, war never changes.

My adolescent self was not ready for that shit 😭

[u/enabledguy → u/Jaronz]

Saw that scene recently while rewatching ROTJ. Legit a hard watch 😭😭

[u/theDukeofClouds → u/Jaronz]

Amidst all the cool sci fi space wizard action and laser guns and starships, we, or at least I, love to be reminded that the original movie came out right after Vietnam, one of if not the worst historical conflict the U.S was involved in, ended. The anti war sentiment was strong in the social culture of the U.S and that is at its core what Star Wars is about: that oppressive dictatorships are bad and that war hurts everyone, soldiers and civilians alike. Ewoks were cute and funny but that little scene of the ewok mourning the death of his little buddy on Endor is powerful for a relatively light hearted space fantasy about the classic Farm Boy Becomes Savior of the World and Defeats Evil Wizard and His Dark Knight.

[u/BallsDeepInARat → u/theDukeofClouds]

i always thought that the war on Endor was a not so subtle nod to ol' 'Nam: with all the heavily improvised booby traps and forrest dwellers living easy lives having to fight against well equipped soldiers in a probably hot, and moist climate. one of my all times favorite missions from the newer EA Hit-Game, Battlefront: II was the short, but enjoyable Endor mission in which you could see huge areas burned by what appears to be either flamethrowers or "Napalmish" bombs. a lot of the OG-Trilogies greater battles actually reminded me of real-world battles: the assault on Hoth was really similar to the Finish/Soviet winter war in a lot of cases. as someone from finland i can definetely see the similarities. Endor reminded me of Vietnam (like i said). The assault on the Second Death-star reminded me a lot of the Soviet assault on Berlin during WW2.

i bet there are many more examples, even more in the Prequel-Trilogie with Kashyyyk being heavily influenced by the well known invasion of Normandy, better known as D-Day, Naboo reminded me of the german invasion of france, and Geonosis was also heavily influenced by Vietnam, even better shown in TCW: heavy use flamethrowers and the attack runs on the seperatist ships.

HONOURABLE MENTION: the opening scene of The Revenge of The Sith was a pretty accurate depiction of the last fight of the Bismarck, with the "Invisible Hand" taking its place in the showdown and in the end, going down just like the german destroyer

[u/theDukeofClouds → u/BallsDeepInARat]

Very good points mate, and your so right, the parallels are definitely there. I guess my point is Star Wars really is inspired by modern conflicts throughout history, all of which share a mostly similar theme.

[u/BallsDeepInARat → u/theDukeofClouds]

thats exactly what i wanted to point out, thanks for clarification!

[u/Major-Ad148 → u/theDukeofClouds]

I always thought that the malevolence shared closer ties to the Bismarck, seeing how they both: defeated various powerful enemies (HMS hood vs trio of venators), were put on the run after core systems were destroyed by fighters (y wings destroying ion cannon and hyperdrive vs swordfish destroying steering gear), and both were eventually defeated in open, ship to ship combat (at least partly for the malevolence)

[u/yrunsyndylyfu → u/Jaronz]

Romba.

His buddy that died was Nanta.

[u/the_fuego → u/yrunsyndylyfu]

Needs to be like an internet Rule 66. If it shows up on screen in a Star Wars film there's a wiki page for it.

[u/GU355WH01AM → u/the_fuego]

Romba's and Nanta's story is told in the "From a Certain Point of View: ROTJ" book.

[u/Nicky3Weh → u/Jaronz]

Breaks my fuckin heart to this day. Ima go get a tattoo

[u/le_pepe_face → u/Jaronz]

The fact they added that scene is so great. Not like great cause what happens is great but because it really does ramp up the gravity of the conflict and the fact that everyone in this quote thread is in agreement shows the impact of those two unnamed furballs.

[u/UpUpDownDownBA_Start → u/Jaronz]

I can hear this scene in my head.

[u/beakster57 → u/Jaronz]

That scene makes me so sad :(

[u/ym_house → u/Jaronz]

Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru getting burned seems mighty painful

[u/aaronschatz → u/Jaronz]

That was devastating. Every time I watch Jedi I hope he gets up…..but he doesn’t.😢

[u/GlassCityGeek → u/Jaronz]

Oh my god, I always forget about that scene and it kills me every time 😭

[u/Lolaroller → u/Jaronz]

God why’d you have to remind me of that, the scene is so small but so universal, it always makes me sad to see it.

This one hits my son the hardest! He doesn't like to watch RoTJ because of that part alone.

[u/nickc9267]

Shmi Skywalker

[u/Crazy-Seaweed-1832 → u/nickc9267]

I swear everyone forgets she's a slave. Then has her kid stolen by the Jedi which breaks her even though she knows it's for the best. Sold to another guy as a wife. Stolen from him into worse slavery. Then tortured and worked to death.

[u/JadedResponse2483 → u/Crazy-Seaweed-1832]

Anakin wasnt stolen, he was given the choice to leave andshmi wanted him to leave

[u/sk1nnyjeans → u/JadedResponse2483]

While I don’t disagree with your interpretation or summary of the events, allowing a child as young as Anakin to attempt to advocate for himself and make such a heavy life choice is just utterly irresponsible and negligent of every adult involved, Jedi or not. Granted it got him out of being a slave, but damn.

[u/JadedResponse2483 → u/sk1nnyjeans]

Then to who shouldve the responsability be given to? Both Shmi and Qui-gon wanted him to go, they literally gambled to buy his freedom, so is not like its going to change much of the outcome

[u/sk1nnyjeans → u/JadedResponse2483]

You’re right. I guess I’d prefer qui gon and Shmi have the ultimate say in some grand attempt in getting her and anakin both out, fairly or not. I think my biggest issue here is that I was never a fan of anakin and qui gon leaving Shmi behind to begin with. I get that for plot or storyline purposes bad things had to go down involving his mom, but leaving her behind from the getgo seemed like total bullshit.

[u/CriticalHit_20 → u/Crazy-Seaweed-1832]

I thought her freedom was bought by her cousin or half brother or something? I'm probably misremembering.

[u/bokatan778 → u/CriticalHit_20]

Not her cousin. Cleigg Lars purchased her, then freed her, then married her.

Beru, who was Owen Lars’s girlfriend at the time, was heavily involved in the underground slave freeing movement.

[u/atypical_lemur → u/bokatan778]

underground slave freeing movement.

There is an idea for a TV show, or at least a mini series.

[u/bokatan778 → u/atypical_lemur]

I would love that!

They gave us a little taste in the Padme books, and that part of the novel was hands down my favorite part.

Also, I’m not sure if I am spacing out-is there a better term for what I’m describing that underground slave freeing??

[u/CzarSpan → u/bokatan778]

Emancipation is the word you’re looking for I think, perhaps liberation.

[u/Gilgamesh661 → u/Crazy-Seaweed-1832]

Anakin did the right thing. He’s right, those tuskens are animals. They didn’t even capture her to sell or ransom. They literally just took her so they could torture her for the fun of it.

[u/Crazy-Seaweed-1832 → u/Gilgamesh661]

Padmes response to his unhinged statement was kinda whack though. 'I killed all the men and the - women even the ... Children' and she's like damn rough day come here Im not judging. She doesn't even bat an eye like hmm that seems kinda fucked up for a Jedi.

[u/Vysce → u/Crazy-Seaweed-1832]

"Now I am complete"

[u/otirkus → u/Crazy-Seaweed-1832]

Not quite, Lars actually paid for her freedom instead of taking her as a slave. In fact, in the 1800s, well-off abolitionists used to buy slaves to free them as well. She did enjoy a few happy years with Lars, but that was after a lifetime in slavery.

[u/theDukeofClouds → u/nickc9267]

Ohhh man that was one of the first real hardcore death scenes I ever saw. I cant remember if I saw the Original Trilogy or the Prequels first, might have been the prequels as they were out in theatres when I was young. The actress killed it in that scene, and Hayden too.

"Ani...I...I love..." absolutely heartbreaking.

And then Anakins sorrow turns to rage and he slaughters the Tuskans with impunity. I was an angry emotional child and I FELT that. I thought if anyone ever did that to MY wonderful mother I'd be insurmountable inconsolable.

[u/MarkTheDemon → u/theDukeofClouds]

the actress for shmii is from my home country. i think thats pretty awesome

[u/Jabbas-Hookah-Frog]

Uncle Owen and his wife were burned alive that seems like a lot

Oh noo my aunt and uncle who were basically my parents got burned alive. Anyways let's go save this pretty princess yay lmao

Sweet home Alderaan

[u/Gilgamesh661 → u/Otrebur0]

I think he was just compartmentalizing and trying not to think about it.

You can see that he’s clearly in shock when he sees their remains. Not everyone breaks down crying and screaming when confronted with tragedy.

[u/TheKeeperOfThe90s → u/Gilgamesh661]

He's also very clearly hurting when he goes back to Obi-wan... and let's not forget that helping Obi-wan means thwarting the people who just killed them.

[u/SplodeyMcSchoolio → u/Otrebur0]

Now I'm really sad because this old hermit I never really talked to until like yesterday died, best express my grievance to this princess who lost everything she ever knew and loved a few hours ago

[u/dumb_potatoking → u/Otrebur0]

Luke: Relatives gone, carry on.

[u/Darkguide42 → u/gregmcph]

Yeah I never understood that and it always bothered me a little

[u/emmaa5382 → u/Darkguide42]

Leia does it too in the same film, I mean if I watch someone blow up earth I feel like I’d be upset for longer

[u/ReverendDS → u/emmaa5382]

My planet with my entire family and everyone I knew just got blown up, but let me comfort this hick who just lost his karate teacher that he's known for two days.

[u/Gilgamesh661 → u/Darkguide42]

He was in shock.

I’ve seen several wrecks where someone died and someone else survived, a friend or family member in the car with them, and sometimes they aren’t crying or screaming or anything. They just sit there, silent and blank faced.

It’s no different than a soldier getting hit by artillery, losing their arm, then getting up and wondering around like they’re at the park.

[u/Krazyguy75 → u/gregmcph]

Yeah this and Leia getting over her planet destroyed are the two biggest flaws in ANH, in my opinion.

[u/JexFraequin → u/gregmcph]

Almost as if he idk hired those stormtroopers maybe I mean probably not but he hated working on that fucking moisture farm and just wanted to fight the empire and maybe not being allowed to get the power converters from tosche station was the last straw and he was like “fuck man i’ll do anything to get outta here” like idk connect the dots.

[u/nsdmsdS → u/JexFraequin]

The Force works in murderous ways.

[u/Confirmation_Code → u/gregmcph]

Should've let Luke go to Tosche Station

[u/nnyzim → u/Jabbas-Hookah-Frog]

Nope, they died via thermal detonator in a domestic dispute.

[u/UsgAtlas1 → u/Jabbas-Hookah-Frog]

That's what they deserved for making the Little Orphan Annie jokes

[u/Dead_Purple → u/UsgAtlas1]

LOL

[u/SaltSurprise729 → u/Jabbas-Hookah-Frog]

It was actually because of domestic violence.

[u/StC_2844 → u/FryCakes]

That's the thing that mother fucker keeps you alive and digest you at the same time

[u/Gilgamesh661 → u/FryCakes]

Nope, it keeps you alive the ENTIRE time. And you feel every agonizing second of it. For countless years.

[u/robcwag → u/Gilgamesh661]

Unless you are Boba Fett.

[u/Minimum_Apricot1223 → u/Womz69]

Ah, you beat me

[u/CowboyNinjaD → u/Womz69]

Did Filoni or anyone ever explicitly confirm that the Return of the Jedi rancor WAS NOT Muchi? I've social media posts explaining that the RofJ rancor was male and Muchi was female, so Luke couldn't have killed Muchi, but I don't think I've ever seen anything official from Disney/Lucasfilm.

[u/WicketTheSavior → u/CowboyNinjaD]

Pateesa is the Rancor from RotJ. They're 2 different Rancors

[u/Fiyah_Crotch]

Darth maul probably. Taken away at a young age to be raised as Sith, cut in half, lost his brother, discarded by his old master, tried to warn the one Jedi he could speak to about order 66 but she wouldn’t listen, still focused on vengeance with his dying breath.

[u/tramborghini → u/Fiyah_Crotch]

Kinda stretch but anakin fits that description as well.

[u/criosovereign → u/tramborghini]

Wow I didn’t realize how many parallels they share, CW and Rebels did a ton of legwork on making a throwaway character into a true foil for the franchise main character

[u/tramborghini → u/criosovereign]

Mother talzin did the most leg work hehe

[u/MCD5000 → u/Fiyah_Crotch]

The Rebels end for him was actually kind of touching

[u/Gilgamesh661 → u/Fiyah_Crotch]

Even if he hadn’t been taken by Sidious his life would’ve sucked. The night brothers are basically slaves to the nightsisters anyway. Dude never had a chance.

[u/otirkus → u/Fiyah_Crotch]

Unlike some other tragic characters, Maul seems to have made a good life for himself though. First the apprentice to a Sith Lord, then basically became a mafia don for nearly 2 decades.

[u/Nof-z]

It still bothers me that he never asks about Fives

[u/KenYankee]

Bix Caleen

[u/badgerpunk → u/KenYankee]

Seriously. What they did to her was fucked up.

[u/timelordoftheimpala → u/badgerpunk]

It felt more fucked up because unlike Leia or Han, Bix was just a regular person with no training to resist that kind of torture, nor had she been exposed to war like they were.

Similarly, seeing Mace, Anakin, and Obi-Wan resorting to torture in order get Cad Bane to take them to the Holocron was also unsettling because that time, it was coming from the heroes.

[u/Nilekul_itsme → u/badgerpunk]

I really wish she could return to normal next season:( she doesn’t deserve this

After skipping every clone wars episode she or C-3PO were in … kinda okay with it

[u/Garchompisbestboi → u/Kylesexy584603]

I don't think she died of sadness (despite what the droid said), I was always under the impression that Palpatine killed her using some dark force magic and used her life force to keep Anakin alive.

[u/SpoofExcel → u/Garchompisbestboi]

The novelisation of the movie (which was ok'd by Lucas) very clearly states she died from their equivalent of broken heart syndrome. There's no doubt in what killed Padme

[u/Foxwolf00]

Luke Skywalker. He had a successful academy of Jedi, a smokin' hot redhead of a wife, a family, and a sister, brother-in-law, and so much more. To be relegated to a milk-drinking fethwipe by a Mouse.

[u/Baron_Duckstein → u/Foxwolf00]

Like a meme about waking up from a coma having lived an entire, fulfilling life, only to find that you're actually in The Rise of Skywalker.

[u/Foxwolf00 → u/Baron_Duckstein]

Exactly. If he wasn't dead already, he'd have killed himself. Hell, that's a theory: he killed himself through "Force exhaustion" in the Last Jedi. Damn the Mouse.

Anakin/Vader

Was a slave, was bullied, almost crashed a podracer, his future master died, his mom died, got his hand cut off, was scarred, lost his padawan (kinda), got MORE limbs cut off, burned, was put in a torture suit, then got electrocuted, then died.

I mean, does anyone really compare?

[u/Pella_kyler]

I would argue Padmae because she spent her whole life fighting for her and the galaxy’s people for democracy and freedom. She had to watch a man she trusted to rip it all to shreds and become emperor. She watched her own husband turn against her and be a huge reason why she refused to live anymore. She died before knowing her babies would live and she never knew that the empire would fall, her husband would be redeemed and return to the light, her children would grow up to be heroes, and never saw democracy rise again.

Pateesa (yes, Jabba’s Rancor had a name. It means “Friend” in Huttese) literally got a door slammed on its head and impaled through its skull.

Anakin, well… you know.

Luke came home to find the charred corpses of his uncle and aunt and also had to come to terms with the fact that the most evil man in the galaxy was his father.

Boba watched his dad get decapitated (and also watched him lose an arm in an extended cut) while only a child and got eaten alive by a Sarlaac, one of the worst fates ever (far worse than what C-3P0 described, if you know, you know).

Princess Leia had her entire planet blown up in front of her eyes in between torture sessions on a seemingly invincible space station. Then, after getting rescued by a bunch of buffoons (who, unlike her, were too slow to realize that they were allowed to escape,) had to console some kid crying because the mentor he met 12 hours ago just got killed.

Didn’t a side character grow up in slavery, hold his mother in his arms while she died, get indoctrinated into a war at like 19, get haunted with nightmares of his wife dying, get manipulated by an actual devil into turning against his best friend, get amputated by said friend, get convinced by the previously mentioned devil that he caused his wife’s death, and then got stuck in a suit that caused him immense pain constantly?

his back-story is that he was slated to escape jabba’s palace with the rancor and get off-world. that’s part of why he was crying. read Tales From Jabba’s Palace. it’s fun.

Emotional pain? Vader.

Through other people's pain to provide more pain to the people behind them? Also Vader.
