Welcome to /c/Tumblr

All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CursedThis isn’t your personal call-out post.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited

Rule 2: No Forbidden PostsSome things belong in the drafts forever. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
  • NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

He uses them plenty on clone wars.

Also I always wondered if he subconsciously used Jedi mind trickery to get Padme to fall in love with him

Well it for sure wasn't his dialogue...

If anyone would be immune to Jedi mind tricks it'd be Padme. I'd put her on par with Cad Bane if not higher and it took Anakin, Obi-Wan and Mace Windu to do anything to him

I don’t understand why people think padme is some genius who could stand up to a master Jedi mind trick.in phantom menace She was a teenager who had no idea what she was doing until different characters showed her what to do, in the other films she’s an emotionally stunted career politician who is politically intelligent but has the sense and emotions of a 13 year old

Tbf so do a lot of other politicians and she did rule a planet as a child. Child queen emotional stunting has to put child actor stunting to shame.

They still had free will. It's the kids fault for not paying attention during Master Windu's P.E courses on Force Run.

Though I also can't blame them, Anakin's thesis on The Tale of Dark Plageuis the Wise is absolutely enthralling, at least in academic circles.

I have read Skinwalker 3 times in this post. Skywalker is written 2 times...

I wonder if any of those kids were like, "Look, I know you're killing everybody, but if you let me live, I'll do what you tell me to do. Like, you don't have to murder me. I will become your apprentice."

Where do you think the Inquisitors came from?

The ones Anakin missed, it's a big temple
