Guess who is finally up to date with the entire Star War episodes?!
ME!
After almost 9 months(?) I finally finished all 6 episodes. Hehe.
I finished the prequel trilogy while I was in Brighton visiting Zoe because of jet-lag. Today, because I've been so busy since Christmas Eve, I decided that this Sunday shall be pyjamas-Sunday (no-pants-Sunday is a bit too "descriptive" in my opinion).. So since I've got time to kill today, I've decided last night (before I slept) that I shall watch Episode 5 (first movie of the original trilogy) and see if I like it before committing to it.
And I actually liked it. Though I am not going to lie that it was a bit slow for my liking, but you know, this movie was made ages before I was even born.. Things were much slower in those days I guess.
It was actually intriguing cause now I know who is Darth Vader and I am so excited to see how he reveals himself to his son and what does he feel when he finally meets his son..
Fun Fact: I first knew about the great Star Wars spoilers thanks to Toy Story Two when (Emperor) Zurg told Buzz (Lightyear) that he was Buzz's father. Before that, Darth Vader who?
Anyways, while I had to run quick errands today, I let Episode 5 and 6 download and once I was done with the errands, I stayed pun in my room til I was done with the other two movies and now I'm here!
AND OMG.... So much feelssssssssss.
Even after the 5th movie I was already feeling sad after Vader finally reveals himself :'( Haih, all this could've been avoided if Obi Wan didn't show up when Padme was coaxing Anakin. One simple misunderstanding and now the family is torn apart for years :'(
#FEELSOVERLOAD
And then Episode 6 ended and I basically teared guys. This supposedly "epic" Bollywood love story (Bajirao Mastani) couldn't even make me feel anything but Star Wars made me cry.
*please be warned the next paragraphs contain spoilers for those who have no watched Star Wars yet, if any*
It's so unfortunate lah, Anakin was born without a father and was a slave child. Then he lost his mother and he thought his wife betrayed him when he only want to protect her from losing her life during childbirth, and then he basically lost most of his physical body function and has to wear some ugly metal armour with even uglier headgear, on top of all that he thinks he killed his wife and his unborn child (i.e did not know she had twins!)
Then come his children, born without a father or mother and basically stuck in a sand desert. He finally meets a girl who is actually his sister whom she had a crush one when they first met and kissed! Then he found out this entire time the person the entire universe is fighting against is actually his own father, not only that, just moments before he found out, his own father cut off his hand..
Nothing sad to go on about Leia because she basically grew up a princess and well she has all her original limbs, but still, must be sad to remember your own mother as someone who was always sad..
So unfortunate lah these Skywalkers! Haih
But so happy that finally Anakin gets to redeem himself and well, he's all handsome again! Hehe
