Was it necessary to mention the issue of pregnancy in SW RotS?

was it necessary for Padme to mention being pregnant to anakin. I found this issue not to be necessary! It was awkward to hear the issue of pregnancy in a Star Wars movie. I don't know, matbe it's just me, but these are the worst moments in the movie. I loved the way Ani and Padme meet in sevrecy in the dark, but to bring up the word "preggers"? I felt it WAS NOT NEEDED! we all know she is preggers, and she could have said it more poetically or literary finese. Padme could have spoken of flowers in bloom, renewal, and spring feelings, but not said, "Ani, I'm pregnant, because you are the most horny jedi ever!! You love to swing your thing, and because you swing your light stick, you..ummm...made me get pregnant. There was a 10 or 9 yr old in front seat of me. I was lost in thought of how he was taking it, Pregnancy? I thought SW was all about music and blasters and old Jedi Masters at the SW cantina. what the hell was that. also, to see Padme in a birth postion with a droid that I guess is programed in delivering and Lamas classes. the droid would say an alien word that I think meany, Breath!1 Breath!! What the freakin hell is happening? I LOVED THE MOVIE, IT'S JUST THESE MOMENTS THAT RUIN PERFECTION!! was it necessary to even speak of it. Showing less would have given it more.

I have a burning question.......WHO CUT THE UMBILICAL CORDS!!!!!!???

me

With a lightsaber????

Uhh, first of all the movie's rated PG-13, so let's not worry about how 10 or 9 year olds take it. It's not for them.

Second of all, she said "pregnent." What the hell is wrong with that? She was. She had to be for the movie to work. She had to tell Anakin for it to work. She didn't say a damn word about Anakin's sexual prowess. She just told her husband that she was going to have a baby. How anyone can take offense at that, I can't understand.

Furthermore, "[poetic] or literary finese?" You do realize this is a Star Wars movie, don't you?

Unno

no with the force it's a new power

The umbilical cords were cut by that freaking robot that was helpin her breath! The robot would say an alien word and she would breath. It was a lamas robot from the moons of Diegos , I think. lol. I really disliked all pregnancy related scenes and issues. I know lucas wanted to contrast birth(twins) againts Birth(Vader) againts death scene of padme.

Well, I just assumed you thought it was offensive, since you brought up the little kid in front of you.

Anyway, you're changing your story already. First you said you didn't like the "issue of pregnancy" being brought up, and now you say it would be fine if she told him she was having his baby. It means the exact same thing. If you're going to b*tch about semantics, don't talk about 9-year olds and "unneeded" issues.

Yea, evil troops on the march, plus a whole bunch of people being shot and having their limbs cut off. Fun, fun, fun!

Uh...but you've known for years that she is pregnant and gives birth to the twins...so why is it a big deal to mention it? Seems fitting since she has the belling and gives birth.

A hero we have followed since he was a child bursting into flames.

or

A woman mentioning she is pregnant.

Which would most people complain about?

You got issues. 😛 You some kinda babyhating pyromaniac?

That whole last line is a joke.

In answer to the question of the thread - yes. It is pivotal to the entire saga, this is how we get two of the main characters in the OT. I cant see how they could have not talked about it.

Then complain about the writing not the pregnancy. The writing and dialogue has been bad for most of the films.

What else do you say when you tell your husband your pregnant?

The only things I can think of sound much worse.

Lol I find it amazing that the most hotly contested arguement right now is over the word pregnant! doh
