I’m fairly certain the quote was from Bush’s’ speech the night of 911. If you watched it and were above the age of like 12 it was a pretty blunt reference.
he's referring to the line being directly inspired by george bush saying "if you're not with us in our war against terror, then you are against us", and lucas admitted at several points that the bush administration influenced the writing of the prequels as they were being made
it's standard prequelgay coping paradox >THE PREQUELS ARE FOR CHILDREN YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY >ACTUALLY NO THE PREQUELS ARE ACTUALLY GENIUS THEY HAVE SO MANY PARALLELS WITH REAL LIFE POLITICS AND DRAMA >UHH WHAT? THEY DO A SHITTY JOB AT IT? WELL YOU KNOW THEY ARE FOR CHILDREN YOU ARE TAKING THEM TOO SERIOUSLY
I'm with you brother but before we pop off I want you to take a hit of this spice and see if you're still so goddamn angry afterward. Deal my nerfherder?
>Was the OT this on the nose?
The OT is just a fantasy Hero's Journey fairy tale but with scifi space swords. George Lucus openly admitted that it's just every beat of the monomyth structure deliberately shoehorned into a trilogy.
IF YOU'RE NOT MY ENEMY... YOU'RE WITH ME
the good ending 🙂
Don't lecture me, ankain and obi wan. I see through the lies of this meme guys.
Trust nobody not even yourself.
IF YOU’RE NOT ME, YOU’RE MY ENEMY
I find it hilarious that zoomers can watch scenes like this and then claim that the prequels are apolitical
what
It’s a direct reference to George W Bush and the war on terror. Audiences got the reference at the time
Oh yeah I forgot when Dick Cheney cut off all of George Bush's limbs and left him on a volcano planet.

Yeah, everyone knows that. And the OT was inspired by the Vietnam war. Why bring it up?
when? who? what??
I've literally never seen anyone claim the prequels are apolitical.
I don't think anyone's complaint about the movies in which the "Trade Federation" are a major antagonist is that they are apolitical lol
I forgot that zoom zooms think of “politics” as just culture war bullshit. My bad
People back then didn't get offended by jabs at right-wingers.
People back then WERE right-wingers, it's different when you're making jokes at your own expense for the entertainment of others.
>jabs
More like constant barrage of bullshit
Trump lost
yeah like that

What the frick are you talking about?
They just don't seem political because Lucas doesn't have a consistent political philosophy.
This is how I feel when people dont agree with me on Cinemaphile.
IF YOU TURN HER AGAINST MY ENEMY, YOU'RE ME

Was the OT this on the nose? I don't remember an equivalent of Newt Reagan in them.

i love prequels
>only a sith deals in absolutes
>says as an absolute
bravo lucas
he was describing a Sith, so the Sith is responsible for the absolute
