Agreed. I would go even further and say that I got the vibe in Revenge of the Sith that when Anakin notices Obi Wan on Padme's ship he thought maybe they'd been fricking around behind his back or something.
>Because of Obi Wan.... >LIAR! You're with HIM! You brought him here to kill me!
I feel if that had been steered into a bit more it could've been really good.
Yeah, the love triangle angle would've made Anakin's resentment of Obi-Wan more believable. As it stands, he just hates his guts for poorly explained reasons.
There's no reason to think it wasn't part of his deluded thinking. It's not like Padme is alive to clear it up. He is arguably an equally appropriate age for her. Wasn't he like 19 in Episode 1?
There was a lot more Othello-like jealousy of Obi-Wan in the earlier drafts of the script and the novelization. It got cut from the movie, but you can still see traces like when Anakin sees Obi-Wan in his vision of dying Padmé and gets suspicious. In the novelization, Sheev strongly implies Obi-Wan is cuckolding Anakin.
Hello there little wan, your father was an ex pupil of mine before I failed him and was forced to turn him into a discount Warwick Davis. And he was a good friend.
Shitposting aside, did Obi-Wan have an attraction to Padme? He was also a relatively young man, Padme is beautiful, and she happened to be the one of the very few women he was in touch with to some extent. >inb4 Satine
TCWtards need not reply, I'm only talking about the movie timeline
Obi Wan is a cringe incel. that’s why he’s on Tattooine in a masturbation cave most of his life. No wonder Anakin turned out so fricked up Obi Wan sabotaged him out of incel jealousy
Didn't all the cartoons past and present imply that Obiwan actually knew Anakin and Padme were a thing but since he was a bro he just kept his mouth shut and pretended that Anakin be a gudboi?
He outright confirms it in Episode III it's just around the time Anakin goes Vader so everyone forgets about it. It's during this scene:
YOU JUST KNOW
He says something like: "I've known about your and Anakin's feelings for each other for quite some time now, and I've kept it quiet due to the affection I have for both of you. I ... I tried to convince myself that I was wrong, and I wanted him to be happy, but perhaps I should've said something sooner."
Also when he walks into the room and senses that Padmé is pregnant he immediately says: "Anakin is the Father, isn't he?" then when she asks how he knew he says "I've always known." followed by the rest of that bit
Everybody knew. Yoda knew, listen to when he talks about it in Ep3. Old EU had Anakin spending his "shore leave" at Padme's private lakeside villa alone with her and it being a standard topic of gossip in the Temple among literal children, that's how common it was. New EU shows Obi-Wan and all the senior ranking military/clones under his command or working with him knowing because they see him sneak off to make private comm calls to her in storerooms and give him shit for it after.
"Anakin Skywalker is giving Senator Amidala his lightsaber" was not new information to anybody at all. Nobody gave a shit.
I hate bratty teen characters, but I Leah would have been better if she was older and/or the actress didn't look like she was 6. Omega was annoying but she acted more like a kid than Leah does.
at 23:13 the stormtrooper closest to the heroes is clearly looking over and sees them. this is a great reference to boba fett in ESB when he sees our hero luke in the hallway at bespin the cloud city
>kills 6-7 stormtroopers with a pistol and bare hands >surrenders to a truck with 4 stormtroopers in it
no one is doing a sanity check on this production
"Yeah Leia, Padme was fine af ngl"
A compelling Padme/Anakin/Obiwan love triangle is something the prequels shamefully passed over if you ask me.

he cut him up and left him to die

Obi-Wan is 11 years older than Padme, while Anakin was 5 years younger

truly a missed opportunity
me on the left
literally cucked to near death into serving the dark side
obi wan is luke and leia's real father
Cuck fetishists.
He meant that he wishes he was married to Anakin

There is no suggestion he was attracted to her no. He seems to have utterly slain pussy across the galaxy though. Usually villains.
Obiwan has a sneedma male grindset. He's only ever thinkgen about jedying.
He was a good friend.
would you?
wouldn't you?
She's a senator
Without question
I'd cum buckets on her tummy
No, women are disgusting
I'd lick the blood from her Nexu lacerations, if you catch my drift
Would israelite?*
Would I breathe if I needed air? Yes.
He regrets not having a family and he regrets that her real father is an insane murderous cyborg.
Makes sense to me.

>the only people who thought it was secret were Anakin and Padme
>Commander Cody, fetch me some lube
>RIGHT AWAY SIR
cody was chill, he will be the first black clone in bad batch 2 I guarantee it
>oh good people out in tole they listen to the empire
lol
the leia kid seems pretty good for her age, the writing is just so unnatural and way too old for her
I hate bratty teen characters, but I Leah would have been better if she was older and/or the actress didn't look like she was 6. Omega was annoying but she acted more like a kid than Leah does.
This is such a sweet moment in reverse.
