Well he started early with the violence so it wasn't unexpected if you ask me.
I just realized that Anakin committed a mass murder in each prequel movie.
First one is the ship, third one is the childeren.
What did he do in the second one? Clone wars is a huge blank in my memory hahaYou are not alone in this, that movie is a total blank in my head.
Tusken Raiders
Sand people (I don't recall their actual name)
Sand people
Holy shit dude, it's 2024
I'm sorry! Anakin killed them all, so I couldn't ask what their preferred name is! 😢
Yeah the most polite thing to do is ask what specific tribe they are.
Of course, they're going to stab you with a gaffi stick, but you should ask
Anakin: I'm tired of you people
Tusken Raiders: What do you mean "you people"?
Dude, "sand people" is not the preferred nomenclature. Tatooine-American, please.
Inb4 "the whole Outer Rim is AmErIcA" group.
We’re all living in Amerika. Coca-Cola. Always war.
Isn't the original line "sometimes war"? Or am I misremembering the lyrics.
You’re correct, it is. But when has Amerika ever not been at war with someone?
pushes glasses well akshually....The US was not involved in an armed conflict from 1795 to 1798, 1805-1810, 1815-1816, 1828-1832, 1924-1939, 1961-1964 and finally 1975 to 1982. Out of the US' 248 years of existance, it has enjoyed 38 years of official peace.
The Tusken villagers.
Was the ship a mass-murder? It was droid federation. How many Nemodians were actually abord?
Droids are people too
Apparently memory-wiping people is okay
Were there any living beings on that thing? I only remember there being droids
There were Nemoidians controlling it from the central orb. Probably not very many but at least a couple dozen if not more.
They don't count.
I don't know why, but this comment made me burst out laughing. Well played.
I subscribe to the view that droids are people too. A consciousness is a consciousness.
Anakin also subscribes to that idea, given how well he treats R2D2 and C3PO
It's like Hitler loving dogs and being a vegetarian.
That's droidist.
Not to worry, they're still flying half a space station
His first time was shortly after he tried what those in the scene refer to as "spinning". All that violence happened while he was still high on the rush from that very first spin of his. It seemed like a "good trick" at the time, but like with many other a vulnerable youth before him and after him, it was nothing but a "gateway trick", that started him down a dark side-path in life, where he, hungry for more, would seek out dangerous knowledge on how to perform increasingly darker and darker "tricks". But that path inevitably leads to oblivion, for anyone who takes it. He ended up destroying not only those he loved, as well as many innocents who happened to be in the wrong place, at the wrong time, along the way, until his addiction to these tricks would eventually claim its final victim - namely himself.
And that's why you should always say "NO!" to spinning! It might seem tempting and harmless, when a friend offers you just a little spin, right? But that person is not your friend, and that spin is anything but harmless. So, take the Spin-Free Pledge with me and all of your friends today, and you will be able to take home your very own SpinNot™ diploma to hang on your wall. And when some hoodlum on the street offers you a spin, remember these words, which will surely make him reevaluate his own life decisions in quiet shame, as you loudly and proudly tell him:
Spinning - not even once!
