I was unsure if this actually was a real dress she wore, given the AI enhancements to the image, but it actually seems to be real: PadmΓ© Amidala - Black corset dress (without shawl)

[–] WYLD_STALLYNS@lemmy.dbzer0.com 87 points 1 day ago (3 children)

You can tell based on her ears this was AI overkill airbrushing.

[–] Lumisal@lemmy.world 5 points 13 hours ago

Nah, she was just signalling she prefers Vulcans over jedi

Sad that every image has to go through the slopmachine nowadays. There's almost nostalgia for jpeg artifacts...

[–] NottaLottaOcelot@lemmy.ca 9 points 18 hours ago

I was wondering why she looked so messed up

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 52 points 1 day ago

Why did they have to use an image that's not actually padme?

[–] yesman@lemmy.world 152 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Even with the wardrobe, they couldn't pull off sexual connection. There is more chemistry in this scene than anything with Anikin and Padme.

[–] TheVoiceOfRaison@thelemmy.club 69 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Thats not Portman's fault.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 137 points 1 day ago (4 children)

It's probably more of a fault of the person that wrote those dialogs than anybody's else.

[–] spitfire@lemmy.world 71 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] ztwhixsemhwldvka@lemmy.world 52 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But you, you are not sandy and that is why I love you.

[–] Dzheyk@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

This. The only thing that has helped me digest the awful writing for anything romantic is that ol Lucus saw it as, and wrote it as, those sappy romantic drama daytime shows...I forget what the genre is called exactly...either way. Makes much more sense in my head now.

Edit: Soap operas. Overacting..terribly written..soap operas.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 8 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

i mean if you've never had these stupid conversations with your lover you just don't get it. but they are stupid conversations, not romantic ones. i feel like portman and christensen may have been a bit young for the roles as written.

as an example, my wife and i discussed flour for an hour the other day.

[–] Dzheyk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 12 hours ago

Flour for an hour? See that's what true love looks like

YES! Thank you!

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

And who directed, edited, and so on

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

fair.

but also it leads to my headcanon that Anakin was actually using the force to dominate her mind. (maybe subconsciously, but maybe not.)

[–] fantacyde@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 18 hours ago

Hmm I find that an interesting theory!

[–] spacegoat@lemmy.world 12 points 20 hours ago

Disturbing image

[–] TheJesusaurus@piefed.ca 114 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Why has her face been airbrushed to oblivion

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 16 points 22 hours ago

This has got to be AI, right?

[–] i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca 61 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It’s like someone described how Natalie Portman, Selena Gomez, and Kate Austen from memory and the artist said β€œlet me see what I can do”.

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 31 points 1 day ago

I hate your use of the word "artist."

[–] aaa999@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago

upscaling means more pixels which means more quality. why did this person start out with 320x240 jpeg in the first place? because hehe

[–] restingOface@quokk.au 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I ended up checking "albino" on the form

uh, that box doesn't say "albino", it says "capuchin". when's the last time you drank coffee or had your prescription checked?

[–] RaoulDook@lemmy.world 96 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The line between the boobs is to symbolize the separation

[–] its_kim_love@lemmy.blahaj.zone 37 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And the opening of the path Anakin would walk down to the dark side.

[–] bobs_monkey@lemmy.zip 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Y: Give in to temptation, you must not.

A: But have you seen that rack?

mischevious Yoda noises

[–] MeatPilot@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 day ago

Fuck her and forget her you must.

[–] tacotroubles@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

I think my depression started when I realized a space princess in a smokin' hot dress would never tell me our love is taboo and forbidden.

*space royalty actually

Not β€œtaboo and forbidden”, β€œnaboo and tatooine”

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah, that was after she was retconned to no longer be space royalty. She was at that time a space politician that started her career when she was elected to be the leader of a planet when she was 15 years old.

Because that's how you do great world building!

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

she was elected queen. because in space you vote for queen.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 11 points 21 hours ago

be quiet! i order you to be quiet!

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 25 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Will it help if I tell you our love is taboo and forbidden?

[–] tacotroubles@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

my dude, our love is forbidden and taboo six days a week. tuesdays, no holds are barred.

[–] tacotroubles@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

Fucking goosebumps bro!
