Somehow she survived. Padme’s revenge.
Oh my God
Somehow Padme returned.
No one’s ever really gone
Except Rey’s Parents. They’re really gone.

Leia, do you remember your mother? Your real mother?
Just a little bit. She died when I was very young.
Talk about burying the lede, Leia. JFC.
If GL hadn’t sold, there would eventually have been a superduperhyperspecial edition that would have changed that line, among others, because he obviously didn’t mean it literally and it wasn’t his actual vision and only 1980s technical limitations forced him into permitting scripted lines that turned out to be bullshit. :-)
He probably just mixed up the line from when he saw it in theaters.
First time for me with that one. Awesome! LOL
Thanks for sharing!
I just assumed she meant her adopted mother, Mrs. Bail Organa. Or did I miss something here?
Edit: nevermind, just looked it up and Breha died on Alderaan when the Death Star blew it up. Lame.
I personally like the fan theory that Padme’s life force was transferred to Anakin with the help of Palpatine.
Do you ever get the feeling that all the right story beats are there, if only it were guided by a more masterful hand
Like some sort of invisible Force.
Oh definitely. It has the makings of an epic series, that gets dumbed down and ruined at every opportunity for greatness.

Didn’t Hamill wreck his Corvette and end up requiring facial reconstruction? I thought that’s why he moved to voice work back then.

Ah okay. It is a shame they never made it then!
Thrawn would have been such a home-run no brainer
Go back and watch one of the original trailers for the Phantom Menace. They cut that scene from the final movie and it gave him more lines than the entire rest of the movie.
At one point, Lucas admits to going back in to post-production and drastically recutting the movie to fit a more kid-friendly Disney-esque media market. Specifically, he was very excited to give Jar Jar Binks a bigger role. I’m convinced there’s actually an excellent film laying somewhere on the cutting room floor and Lucas’s own vanity was what stole it from us.
Also incidentally, the original New Hope screenplay was a total wreck. His first wife had to completely recut it before shooting began. She became good friends with Carrie Fisher, and Fisher learned the trade of script-doctoring from her masterfully. They both went on to work behind the scenes in a number of popular movies (Fisher even has a cameo in the first Austin Powers, where she tells Austin to quit all the silliness and get to the plot). There’s a good reason to believe that Marcia Lou Lucas was the hidden hand that made Star Wars a hit.
Oh wow. This makes so much sense. Damn, new head canon unlocked.
It’s the only explanation that makes sense. And “sense” is a very relative term, here.
That theory missed something that jumped my synapses right at the end. Palpatine killed Vader in order to revive. He pulled the same fucking trick, his love of Vader and his hatred at his betrayal mixed right at the end, and he used it to hitch a ride to his clone stock. Man, fuck, that just ruined the sequels all over again.
She’s sad cause she’s gotta wait till that dick is legal
I always though it was kind of Walrus

No, that would be bazaar!

Phantom Menace was 2/3rds of a good movie and 1/3rd of just doing A New Hope again, but worse.
