Star Wars Questions

Padme dies giving birth !


1. The Emperor, when he first turns wrinkled, his voice changes to an
evil tone and he has yellow eyes and no hood. He’s on the screen for
several long moments looking awfully creepy.

Anakin kills the Younglings: When Anakin arrives at the Temple to kill
the Jedi, he walks into the Jedi Council chamber. Hiding behind the
chairs is a number of 6 or 7 year old children. They see Anakin, and a
boy comes out from hiding and says something like, “There’s too many of
them to fight, Master Anakin. What should we do?” In response, Anakin
ignites his lightsaber and the scene cuts away. Much like the slaughter
of the Sand People in AOTC, you don’t see anything, but the message gets
across that he kills them. Later in the film you see the bodies of
several children lying on the ground as Obi-Wan and Yoda survey the
damage. The kids have no obvious wounds on them, so they look like they
are sleeping. But our hero has killed children in the movie.

3. Anakin chokes Padme – Towards the end of the film, Padme arrives on
the volcanic planet of Mustafar to tell Anakin that Obi-Wan is hunting
him. Anakin then sees Obi-Wan emerge from hiding on Padme’s ship.
Thinking that Padme is yet another in a long line of people to betray
him, he flies into a rage. He raises his hand and starts to Force choke
Padme. She hangs in the air choking for about 4 seconds, then Anakin
releases her and she falls to the ground unconscious. It’s brief and
surprisingly understated, but it’s a bit shocking to see spousal abuse
in a Star Wars movie.

4. Anakin Burns – Towards the end of the final duel between Obi-Wan and
Anakin, Obi-Wan catches Anakin in mid-air and cuts off both of his legs
and his remaining arm. Anakin falls to the ground and proceeds to slide
down an embankment towards lava. As he gets near it, his clothes catch
on fire. He burns for a few seconds in full flame and you see his hair
and clothes burn away. He’s then left with red eyes and charred flesh.
You see it clearly in a couple of close up shots and a couple of far
away shots. It’s not shown on the screen more than a few seconds. Later,
as Anakin’s being turned into Darth Vader, you see him on an operating
table screaming in pain as robots poke and prod him with needles. You
see his full charred body in this brief shot.

5. Padme delivers the twins and dies – After the final duel, Obi-Wan
takes Padme to a medical center. Droids report that she’s physically
fine, but that she’s lost the will to live so she’s dying. (Would a
pregnant woman as strong as Padme lose the will to live? I doubt it.
Anyway….) They must deliver the twins to save them. Padme screams and
cries as the children are delivered by a robot. After she names them,
she says to Obi-Wan that there’s still good in Anakin, then she dies.
It’s not too hard to see that this could unsettle a child, especially
one with a pregnant mother.

6. Dooku's Decapitation - At the conclusion of the opening battle,
Anakin gets the best of Count Dooku. He cuts both of Dooku's hands off
and the Sith Lord is shown briefly staring in disbelief at his
cauterized stumps. Anakin then takes the two lightsabers and puts them
to Dooku's neck. He says, "I shouldn't do this", then scissors the
lightsabers to cut Dooku's head off. The actual cut takes place off
screen and you see the body fall over and the head briefly rolling off
in the background. To be honest, it is less graphic than Jango's
decapitation in AOTC.

7. The Death of Mace Windu - Just as Mace Windu prepares to finish off a
cowering Palpatine, Anakin steps in and cuts off Mace's arm in a
shockingly quick move. Mace stares at the stump in disbelief and is then
hit by Force lightning by Palpatine. He starts screaming as electricity
courses through him like in Return of the Jedi. It goes on for a few
seconds then Mace is violently hurled out a shattered window to fall to
his death.

Seem more like observations and spoilers than questions.

BD
Duct tape is like the Force. It has a light side & a dark side, and it holds
the universe together.

And all that is what got it an "M - (Recommended for Mature Audiences 15
years & over)" rating in Australia for "Moderate Science Fiction Violence" I
think the exact wording is. However, the operative word is *recommended*.


So much for PG 15+
