i was just talking to a qui-gon defender. so. here's my pre-prepared list of reasons I dislike him taken directly from the movie. if you wanna debate anything just keep it civil or whatever.

1. his padawan expresses that he feels something will go wrong on their mission (rightfully so, he's expresses this on several missions in the future after qui-gon dies and is right nearly every time). qui-gon immediately tells him to ignore his anxiety. obi-wan says that yoda told him to be mindful of these feelings (because they're Force feelings, not regular anxiety) and qui-gon says not to listen to yoda. (2 min into the movie)

2. suggests that him and his padawan split up after the people they were sent to negotiate with try to kill them and they realize they're about to walk right into in invasion (forgivable because obi-wan is 25-ish in this, but still) (7.5 min in)

3. acquired jarjar binks (~11 min in) and ignored him and left obi-wan to take care of/watch over him (this one's kinda of a joke)

4. didn't stop his padawan from scaring people into helping them with indirect threats to their safety (this just feels like kinda bad parenting so it's going on here, it happens multiple times)

5. makes his padawan (who hates driving/flying) pilot the transport they use to travel through the core of a planet. shows zero (0) concern when the local fauna decides they look like a tasty snack. (18 min in)

6. "don't worry. the force will guide us." they have no clue where to go. their transport lost power in the middle of a planet. they nearly died. (19 min in)

7. "my feelings tell me they will destroy you." his feelings/anxiety matter to him, but not his padawan's

8. "be wary. I sense a disturbance in the force." oh, you mean the one your padawan warned you about before everything went to osik? that disturbance that you told him not to worry about? okay. (30 min in)

9. rescues anakin (age 9) from slavery and then does not also rescue his mother shmi (this is not me being mad that the jedi haven't ended slavery, this is me being mad that he forced a little kid to leave his mother in slavery and expected the boy to be okay with that). also, only rescues anakin because he thinks anakin is the Chosen One instead of just wanting to get a child out of slavery.

10. places the date of their very important mission on the hope that a 9 year old will win a dangerous race that he hasn't won or even finished before. (~50 min in)

11. similar to the last one (same decision, different affect), enters anakin (age 9) into a very dangerous race and makes him compete for his own freedom. also, lies to him about being on tatooine to free slaves. (~50 min in)

12. takes some of the baby anakin's blood. lies to him about why he took it. never reveals the truth. (~50 min in)

13. dismisses shmi's concerns when she's scared about her 9 year old being in the Scary Dangerous Race that people have literally died participating in

14. "why do I sense we've picked up another pathetic life-firm?" quoth obi-wan, who was not informed that his master had acquired a child and he is about to be responsible for said child.

15. did not tell the child that he was going to be taken from his mother until he was actively leaving (1 hr 12 min)

16. runs back to the ship with anakin, but is a giant (6'4-6'7) and literally is like 10 feet in front of him

17. tells obi-wan (a 25 year old) that he "still has much to learn because obi-wan disagreed with him (asked him to listen to the council for once and follow the rules). (1 hr 29 min in)

18. tries to take Anakin as his padawan. when it's pointed out he already has a padawan (obi-wan), says that he's ready to be knighted. because he really doesn't truly care about his padawan at all evidently. says something about obi-wan being headstrong and still having something to learn, obi-wan looks embarrassed and ashamed. (1 hr 32 min)

19. claims that it's disrespect when the council and obi-wan say that Anakin is dangerous because of how strong he is in the force and how big his emotions and fear of losing people can be. (1 hr 35 min)

20. convinces his, say it with me, 25 Year Old Padawan that he was wrong for disagreeing with him on something. is (off-screen, but implied) cold towards him until obi-wan apologizes. (1 hr 38 min)

21. his last words before he dies are forcing his padawan (age 25) to take care of a 9 year old. never says he's proud of him, never says he's ready to be knighted. just forces him to take care of the child that qui-gon tried to replace him with. (didn't catch it because I'm cooking dinner)

*any cases of padawan endangerment are included because it's treated as normal and makes me feel like he would do the same to a child

At this point I think it would be less gay if they just kissed

Am I the only one who sees 'togruta' and reads it as 'tortuga?'

I always have to do like a double-take or check my spelling because every time I come across the word 'togruta' my brain just immediately reads it as 'tortuga.'

Like, yeah no, makes total sense. Ashoka's a turtle. Yup, that checks out.

Even while writing this my brain's going 'tortuga.' I've had to backspace a few times because I kept spelling it 'tortuga' instead of 'togruta.'

Verbally too! When talking about togrutas if I don't accidentally say tortuga I'll take like way too fucking long to over-enunciate it to make sure I get it right so I don't look like an idiot.

have some uhhhhh clone content based on sth from one of @tattycoram 's incorrect quotes :]

It’s been a while since cared about a M/F ship but these guys are the best

baby girl na'vena!!

she is eidami's other girlfriend! she's the mechanic and pilot of the group, she only allows eidami to help her fix stuff because lotti messes things up on purpose and valsi messes things up on accident.

so I've seen a couple posts about the 20th anniversary poster saying that crosshair was just looking away/didn't like his picture being taken

but have we considered instead that he's just looking at mayday

look at him, there's, like, no other reason for him to be looking up there unless he's stopping to look back at the brother who helped him finally see how terrible the empire was to the clones
