Did U like Padme and Anakin's relationship?

Hey Anakin and Padme fans! Did U Anakin and Padme's relationship? I loved AOTC but U see Anakin and U know he's in love w/ Padme but she has 2 much pride and is 2 caught up in politics to notice and when she does she is in denial. Then out of the blue, she professes her love and then they get married, just like that. We should have seen them together kissing maybe between Geonosis and when they get married. I also think the relationship was rushed from Padme telling Ani she loves him and them getting married.

 

Did U like Padme and Anakin's relationship?


In the way it was portrayed? Nope, nope and more nope.

 

Did U like Padme and Anakin's relationship?

Yes, yes, and more yes.

 

Yep, seemed good to me.

 

I also think the relationship was rushed from Padme telling Ani she loves him and them getting married.

It's a doomed relationship, anyway. I really did like the Anakin/Padmé romance, but I don't think it's supposed to be the formula to follow if you want a nice life three years down the road.

 

No.

 

Yes.

 

I liked Anakin and Padme's relationship very much-It was portrayed quite well in AOTC, IMO. It is a doomed romance-You don't need to see the OT to know that-but it is also a beautiful one.

How sad the one time Padme actually listens to her emotions and follows her heart is actually what spells her downfall in the end.

I think it's shown that Padme does care about Anakin-There is chemistry between them from the moment they meet. Look at the outfits she wears & her body language; She's definately giving mixed signals. When they get to Naboo, even her family can she she quite likes Anakin and gives her some ribbing for it. By that point, as Lucas says in the introduction to that deleted scene, she liked him but she wasn't going to admit it. By that time, she's already fallen for him.

After the fireplace scene (where her head wins over her heart and she tells Anakin that they can never have a relationship), she willlingly seeks him out-She isn't letting go of her attraction to him even though her head tells her to, but she isn't going to admit it.

By the time they get to Geonosis, the odds are pretty slim that they're going to survive; She doesn't have much left to lose. It's only then that she can really admit to him she loves him, and that she finally lets her heart win over her head.

 

I'm with Sophita,I like their relationship
very much.

 

It was good, but there was to much of it in the movie. They didn't need that much of it.

 

Yes

 

I like TTT's romance. I like the romance in TESB and Moulin Rouge as well. I'm a sucker for romance stories, that doesn't mean I don't have any taste.

 

I am trying to think of a romance that I liked less than Anakin/Padme but the only thing that comes to mind is the "Spiderman" romance.

I guess I just do not like anything where one of the couple obviously has NO interest in the other, but yet at the end they get together because they do not know anyone better to be with.

 

It was fine.

 

i agree the romance was definitly rushed and not thoroughly explored - but i would have been fine with me if it wasn't. the deleted scenes at padme's home touched on her denial (her feelings for anakin).

I liked it. The only thing, was that it was a bit rushed. But that was probably because there was more than the Anakin/Padme relationship going on in the movie. Lucas also had to address the clones, and lots of other stuff, and he only had a limited amount of time to do all that. But I would have liked it better if their relationship had been explored a bit more. I can be such a sucker for romance... Wishful thinking, i guess.

 

Liked the love relationship between Padme and Anakin I did.

I thought that their relationship was very nice and yet at the same time very tragic, and it reminded me of Romeo and Juliet. Across the Stars also enhanced all the love scenes it was played in, IMO.

 

It might have been rushed, but as other people have said: the relationship wasn't the only thing that the movie focused on. Somehow George had to combine that, the clones, Jango Fett, Dooku, etc. etc. into one 2 and a half hour movie.

Although I do think that the relationship was realistic and tastefully done. And I agree with YodaJediMaster12: John William's score did add to it a lot.

It wouldn't have to be rushed if Lucas didn't waste the first film on Pod Races and dumb antics by CGI characters

 

i wish they hadnt of meet in tpm, the more rushed the relationship the better

anyone read romeo and juliet? same deal cept no nazis


?_?

this marks the first time even I dont know what I am talking about

 

I loved their relationship. I think it was portrayed beautifully and made me really want these two people to make it(even though we know they wont)

 

I liked it even b4 I saw it if you know what I mean. the music pulled me in, that love theme really did hit all the right spots.

Anakin was still 9 in that movie. What else could they have done for the love story besides what was already established?

These jaded comments get more and more vague and confusing.

 

The Love story was greatly succeeding to me. I loved it, better than han adn leia romance in my opinion. You guys complain about how anakin and padme fall in love, but its funny, Han and leia fall in love in the same time as anakin and padme. The love story is filled with great symbols and visuals to tell the story. The beautiful love theme expresses their love but at the same time the doomness of it. the love story was very very beleivable and beautifully executed. Their attraction, the way anakin treats padme, the way he makes her feel free. Padme is Anakin's light, she is the water to cleanse him. "YOur presence is soothing." The Dialouge i think is great, george works really hard to get a style that sounds like courtly love. i think people just dont give george enough credit

The Anakin and Padme Love story holds a lot of symbolism, some of it was very light but at times it was dark symbolizing their forbidden love. John Williams created a Love theme for Episode II, to symbolize the relationship between Anakin and Padme. The Love theme is very beautiful, but you can hear a tragic element to it because we know they will not end up together in the future. When they first meet in Episode 2, you hear the sweet Anakin theme play in the background symbolizing that he?s still a little boy and innocent, but throughout the movie Anakin wants to prove to Padme he has grown up.
When Anakin and Padme leave for Naboo, that?s when you start seeing beauty in their relationship. They go stay in a segregated place to keep Padme safe. When they first kiss, its beautiful outside, the sky is blue and between them are roses. The music is light; a lot of flute and harp in the beginning but when they kiss the Episode 2 love theme plays in forte. This symbolizes the beauty and love between them. The rose is a motif in their relationship; it?s the motif of love. Whenever we see the rose, we see them being sympathetic and caring to each other. We see them getting married right buy it and how it is still fresh and alive.
Another great scene in the love story is the meadow picnic scene. The first thing you see in this scene is that it?s very open and the camera is panning to both of them showing that they are together, in earlier shots only one of them were in the shots. The open space Symbolizes the freedom of being together, not having to worry about their careers. While in Coruscant where they have to work, it?s a lot more vertical and Closter phobic, there?s very little room. You also see water and grass which symbolize cleansing, Anakin feels comfortable around her, his Jedi cloak is off his body in this scene. Symbolizing his comfortableness with Padme and being free of the Jedi, and Padme is wearing a more comfortable style of clothing. They feel at peace with each other, and whenever they are together they are themselves. They get to laugh and smile with each other.
After they have a picnic Anakin rides on a nice herbivore animal, no predators to worry about. The Love theme is more upbeat, and the notes are higher symbolizing their happiness with each other. They have a fun time, Anakin jokes around with her making her smile and laugh, something a senator doesn?t often do. However, on the horizon you see clouds which aren?t where they are yet but are moving to them foreshadowing there future. There are clouds also when they are wed in the end of the movie. The clouds are a constant motif in star wars episode 2 and teh star wars saga forshadowing.

Theres so much depth throught the romance. It's like a haiku, short but powerful, and it is. The whole love story reminds me of th elove story in seven samurai and many mythic love stories.

 

Yes, I did like their relationship. Admittedly, it had to grow on me a bit. It does seem rushed, but I think that's the idea -- they're doomed, and one of the reasons they are is because they rush into things, get married in the bloom of their romance, before they're really ready.
