501st veteran. Imperial defector. Professional spacer/Indiana Jones impersonator. What more could you want out of life?
Simple: he isn’t.

My personal interpretation is that they’re all separate people living in the same world who use James Bond as a codename at different times.

And unlike at least half of those people, George isn’t a piece of sh*t.

Brash, impulsive, sometimes flaunting the Code, but a good man with a strong head on his shoulders who always endeavored to do the right thing. That's who Anakin could've become, and that's more or less who Luke ended up becoming.

As for Qui-Gon, I think what George was trying to get across with his character is demonstrating what kind of Jedi Anakin could've been had he properly completed his training as a Jedi.
November 10, 2025 at 11:38 PM
Oh yeah. I'm not disagreeing with you there.

The point is Anakin himself f*cked up by doing so many horrible things for a good two decades before he finally fulfilled the prophecy.
November 10, 2025 at 11:36 PM
No. That's not how it works. The will of the Force is for Anakin to destroy the Sith and restore balance to the Force. That's it. What happens leading up to that is purely up to the people on the ground, not least Anakin.

He based Jar Jar on Goofy.

Unless Goofy is someh a racial stereotype, I don’t get how this assertion makes any sense whatsoever.
November 10, 2025 at 8:02 PM
That is exactly what you were implying though. And if it isn’t, explain to everyone exactly what you think Jar Jar is supposed to be.

Droidekas are pretty f*cking cool (and also terrifying).
November 10, 2025 at 7:33 PM
That’s actually more times than I expected they did in A New Hope.
November 10, 2025 at 7:32 PM
If you legitimately think that a cartoon rabbit/amphibian creature is some racist characature… that says a lot more about you than it does about George Lucas, my guy.

Boring how? Because people talked about politics? By that logic, every Star Wars film is boring (except for the Sequels, where politics is a complet afterthought).

It was George, right?

Do I get a prize for getting it right?
November 10, 2025 at 4:21 AM
I hear that. It is a b*tch. I know it's going to be great though.

That’s because they’ve been recycling the same sh*tty ideas in cycles ever since Nixon, repackaging it whenever people finally see through the BS.

I’m still very invested in the Athenian Empire series. It’ll be really cool to see your take on the Peloponnesian Wars.
November 9, 2025 at 3:56 PM
What the heck is this from?
November 8, 2025 at 6:51 PM
There’s an Austria outside of Vienna?
November 8, 2025 at 6:51 PM
That is exactly what I was talking about. Thank you so much for the help there. Much appreciated.
November 8, 2025 at 2:06 PM
This is only tangentially related to this, but I have never been able to pronounce the names of the pre-unification Numidian kingdoms.

What the hell was up with those names?
November 8, 2025 at 3:22 AM
How long has he been there again?

Denny Crane.

Thomas Paine would be proud.
November 6, 2025 at 12:03 AM
They might have, but anything solid got wrecked by the Gauls in 390 BCE, so we're kinda f*cked there.
