        I’m pretty sure it was written by a puddle of semi sentient goo, after ingesting half of the original scripts and a third of the Nickelodeon archive.

        Excreted. Not written, sorry. I meant excreted.

      Writers? Pretty sure the prequels were just Lucas doing what he wants with minimal oversight or editing.

      Movies are not made to show realism, specially not star wars.

    … is Padme a human?

    I think all bets are off because this happened in a galaxy far, far away.

      After very light research, it seems like Star Wars humans are the same species, although apparently originally it was intended that Star Wars was a story being relayed, and the “humans” in the story are only humans as a way to better relay the story to humans. Kinda like the aliens from Three Body Problem (the show at least, never read the books).

        I think the Bene Gesserit still had to be impregnated. I’m not that deep into the lore but I doubt they could just will themselves into pregnancy.

    I mean, she was a politician. She was probably experienced with suppressing her emotions and trying to remain rational in frustrating situations.

    Physically, though, the waddle should have happened.
