“I don’t know.” George Lucas admitted during the films production. “I just put it there. I think Anakin got it from slipping in the bathtub, but of course, he’s not going to tell anybody that.”
I can’t believe this. I can’t believe this was in consideration for Anakin’s Ep III look. I can’t believe what he ended up looking like in that movie was the subtler alternative to an even worse look.
I can’t believe we almost had an Ep III where Anakin runs around with his bare chest, black leather deep-v-neck jedi tunic, and mohawk while all of his allies are completely blindsided by his fall to the dark side

I knew George Lucas had some issues writing dialogue, and yes the thing about early drafts is that they are bound to be pretty terrible, but Jesus I had no idea it’d be this bad??
Can you imagine Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher trying to read this with a straight face? God bless editors
(From How Star Wars Conquered The Universe by Chris Taylor)
Mark, Harrison, and Carrie have said in interviews that they improvised most of their lines, because GL’s scripted dialogue was so bad
oh dear god
note to self: never feel bad about anything you write. never ever ever.
there is a mutant

how does anyone ever blame the prequels on any of the ACTORS. i will never understand it
