That sequence killed me. My mom kept poking me cause my jaw was hanging open. It might have had a deal to do with being dressed in a Jedi costume too, he he.
That costume rocked. I totally want one. I thought about trying to get my mother to make one, but since she can't sew, and I'm thirty I figured I was out of luck. LOL.
The kids, gah...I was talking to kosiah about it over in one of my several rants on the movie in my LJ, and part of the reason I think it made me so sad was that the fanficcer in me put Celyn in that scene (man, that would be the ultimate Carth abuse)...which spawned a little Anakin-getting-his-ass-kicked story.
You know, ever sense I had a kid, I can't bear to watch children get hurt in movies or on TV. It never used to bother me all that much, but now, it's far more painful to watch.
Heheh... I'm about to go read the Anakin getting his ass handed to him story... It sounds like a lot of fun...
Another idea which I think is complete crap- what, was Sidious just walking around on Tatooine, saw Shmi sweeping, stuck out his fingers and said "BOOM! You're pregnant! Hurry up and produce that little midichlorian-laced freak so I can turn him into my apprentice twentysome years from now."
Yeah, that didn't make any damn sense to me. I mean, if he could knock people up with super strong force sensitive babies at will, then why didn't he knock up someone closer to him and raise the kid as his own? That way instead of taking the chance of Anakin turning him down, he could indoctrinate a kid from birth with his sithy ways?
It also seems strange to me that creating life would be a dark side power. I mean, I always wondered if dark siders could even have kids. Given how they seem to physically fall apart on the outside, you'd think that the same thing would be going on inside their bodies...
