My boyfriend knows absolutely nothing about the series other than that Natalie Portman is in the prequels. He wants to watch the prequels first - he likes her and is convinced you’re supposed to watch them in order.
I’m advocating Machete order (with pre-Special Edition VHS rips), but he really wants to watch Phantom Menace and I’m not sure where to put Rogue One/what other non-mainline material to include.
Do normies tend to like the sequels? I’ve told him upfront that I dislike them immensely, but I’ll tolerate them for him.
This may come across as ridiculous but please understand - I’m just trying to maximize my chance of a couples Han/Chewie Halloween costume this year.
Vader’s name being literally “father”
A complete coincidence, as Vader was not intended to be Luke’s father when A New Hope was written.
Heck, I’m pretty sure “Darth” was actually just supposed to be his first name. Sith titles weren’t considered at all. The concept of Sith didn’t even solidify until after Return Of The Jedi had been released.
The reveal in Empire is one of the biggest retcons in movie history.
