Keiko would show them Machete order (4,5,2,3,6) for sure. No need to talk about a background character with a few lines.
Wait until you hear about a character named Jar Jar Binks! It's well worth the wait.

I assumed this meant she showed them the Machete and Spy Kids films, aka the Trejo-verse.

Uhh, Jar Jar has a pretty key role in Episode 3…

So uh what’s the rationale behind Machete order? Keep you in suspense?

Ain’t nothing wrong with release order, IMO. The differences in cinematography, direction, special effects, ect. become distracting when the trilogies are broken up like that.
To really enhance the cultural zeitgeist of the early 2000s, the prequel trilogy should be experienced with a set of Taco Bell promotional cups and contest pieces from eBay. Alternatively, one could purchase a Pepsi from one of the surviving Phantom Menace vending machines.

But then we can’t see anyone cast summon greater fish! Best part of the trilogy

Responding to your deleted comment, I’m genuinely not sure how Jar Jar’s role in the downfall of the Republic in Episode 3 is the joke being made by this comment. Sorry.

Why respond to deleted comments? I deleted it less than 30 seconds after making it.

“He killed them. He killed them all. They died, every single one of them. And not just the men, but the women and the children, too. He thought of them like animals, and he slaughtered them like animals. He hated them!”

It’s not a story the Federation would tell you. It’s a Bajoran legend.

It’s call en media res and it’s classic

Sure, but The Odyssey doesn’t have Odysseus awkwardly stepping around Scylla’s tail.

CG was still very primitive in bronze age Greece.

Very few stories begin at the beginning of time.
Even fewer have to retcon the romantic tension of the first episode because that was all they wrote or thought out.
setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Even the movie being en media res is a retcon.
A New Hope was not called “Episode 4” until its re-release in 1981. Before then it was released and packaged as a stand alone story.

CMV: SNW is a sequel to The Cage and DIS is set in the future except the very start.
No, I’m with you. ST has way to many prequels. Each is ok for it’s own, but it’s just too much

And Enterprise is just a spin off of First Contact.
AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 11 months ago
At least she’s just telling them about The Emperor and Darth Vader. Not some genuinely terrifying people like Delores Umbridge, or Kai Winn
