El Cascador I agree. It’s sad because what they’re essentially saying is that considered feminine is weak and bad. I always saw empathy, nurturing, and compassion as great things associated with femininity.
Topg1 It’s also not just feminine qualities that can make a female character strong for sure, but take Daenerys for example. She has abilities that are neither feminine nor masculine. She’s smart, calculating, intuitive. She’s one of my favourite female characters, mostly in the books because you know likely what happened with her in the show. I still love her in the show. Just a show. Anyway I’m getting sidetracked. My point is that combining these traits with feminine traits certainly makes interesting characters. The sad thing is that with Game of Thrones people tend to prefer female characters like Arya who is, at least, a tomboy. She’s rather masculine and people tend to prefer her to Daenerys.
@@bugs1285 I don't watch the show but I always thought Daenerys was the favorite character of the show with Jon Snow. Before season 8, I only heard about her, Jon Snow, Tyrion and Cersei (that I knew only because I heard she has incest)
@@bugs1285 Season 8 Daenerys did some questionable things tho.... I like season 6-7-8 Sansa Stark better. Although I did like Daenerys alot especially after Season 3... i guess it was in her nature though.
@Chris impressive, every word in that sentence was wrong. Leia is by far a more interesting and better character (RIP Carrie Fisher). the prequels while good (and sequels) NOTHING will top the original trilogy
@Chris "did not fight in the clone wars" no shit, she wasn't born yet dumbass she was a leader in the rebellion and lead the resistance. what does being in the clone wars have to do with this?
@Chris dude either you're trolling or full of shit. the original trilogy was groundbreaking in terms of special effects and filmmaking. without star wars there probably would be no ILM or pixar. not to mention they are timeless and are still enjoyed and loved for generations. the prequels? not so much
what I found so feminist about Padmé was in the end how she decided not to go with Anakin. She had a strong set of morals and when the love of her life breeched them, she drew the line, she was able to hold her own against the guys without losing her femininity. That's what made her such an important role model when I was a little girl watching these movies.
She didn’t decide not to go with Anakin really she tried to convince him and literally said there was still good in him. He literally choked her before she could really make a choice.
@@mehdiali9909 that’s not really a choice, she’s doing that to try to convince him to go with her. I mean I guess what I was trying to make a point for was that I don’t get why feminism has to be put into her trying to convince him, she’s just a strong person, it’s got nothing to do with her being a women or not.
That’s not exactly true either. She did draw the line at ruling the galaxy together, but if Anakin had accepted her plea to run away with her to Naboo, she would have totally accepted that. I always took away the exact opposite interpretation of this scene: it showed how much Padme loved Anakin that she was willing to leave behind her career and forgive all he had done if he would only run away with her. Her love for him was so powerful that she believed in his goodness until her dying breath. That’s what I think makes her and Anakin’s story so powerful and tragic. Padme’s love wasn’t enough to keep Anakin from falling, but it was enough to eventually redeem him.
I think something thats so important about Padme's character is how feminine she is. All throughout the second and third film she's always wearing very pretty and luxurious outfits, she also always has her hair done up, she is portrayed in a very feminine way. What's so great about this is that her being feminine isn't taken way, she isn't more masculine in order to have badass lines and scenes. She's in the arms of a very strong man but she walks away from him, she decides her own fate and she sticks to her morals. Natalies explanation is perfect. I love her so much
@@aisthetikos7721 what, we see one of the only correct portrayal of feminists in movie history with them being bad ass bit still very female and you disagree, how so
Objectively there is women who looked better than her like Aishwarya Rai, Hedy Lamarr... But she has a tremendously charming aura, her face is so comforting, how can you not fall in love with her seriously she's the perfect gf
Is that really true tho. The only costars that she dated that were love interests were jake Gyllenhaal and a french ballerina. Shes had alot Hookups with costars but thats just hollywood
I am amazed at how well they chose the actors for these roles. Natalie seems to mirror those values of equality, justice, and peace, just like Padmè! Loved hearing her thoughts. :)
@@dhilipans5412 Yeah, studios don't even want to hire her anymore. Honestly, she's a nice woman, she actually trained more in real life than in the movies.
I’m glad it wasn’t just me who imagined that haha. I mean hell, the bad guys are already going to win, why not just go all in. Darth Padme would’ve been awesome.
Thank you, Natalie. Feminism shouldn't be about women trying to become like men. Men and women are equal, but different. It would be a boring world if everyone were the same.
Anyone who says Padme’s character was ruined in Revenge of the Sith needs to watch this interview. If she was really just a helpless crying person with no sense of independence she would’ve went right along with Anakin’s plans but like Natalie says here, Padme stays true to herself and what she believes in even if it means going against the person she loves most. Hence, “you’re going down a path I can’t fellow.” And sure she’s sad about it but any sane person would be in that situation, yet she still refuses to give in, only trying to sway Anakin back to what she knows to be right. That’s independence if I’ve ever seen it
I been a simp for her since I was a kid watching the prequels for the first time 😂😂 (I was 5 when I first saw Star Wars, I’m 21 now) She’s so beautiful.
Back here after Acolyte... Natalie, you are missed. The writers and directors are missed and YOUR SENSITIVITY, intelligence and perspective is so rare and genuine
In my 19 years of life this is literally the only mindset of feminism I’ve heard of that I can actually get behind god I hope she still believes in this
Andrew Abdel I agree. I have nothing against women. I just think that in a home and family, it's best if there is one main leader, the husband. I think he should listen to his wife and love his wife, though. And I agree, few are more gorgeous than the beautiful Natalie Portman. 😍 😄
Padme is a real strong, smart, classy woman who always wears beautiful dresses, and fearless💪and Natalie Portman was the perfect choice to play the character, as was Hayden Christensen as Anakin and Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan🥰🥰I love the prequels and attack of the clones and revenge of the sith are my favorite movies😍😍😍😍they are so awesome🤩❤️💕
feminism is obviously equality for women but also men but lots of people especially on tik tok are twisting it so much, it’s actually sad and can be soooo annoying
Anakin turned to the dark side to have full-power because he wanted to save his loved-ones. By doing this, he lost everything... I love the prequels of Star Wars (Young Nathalie Portman was beautilful)
padmé is a really fantastic and interesting character, not to mention natalie who was excellent at playing her. So I don't understand why "both" received negative criticism when the films came out, does anyone explain it to me?
@A 23 M. since filmed V for Vendetta right before ROTS was released. They only complained about her acting after episode 1. She was just a kid then, her acting improve and she was loved in ep 2. Sadly they deleted her best scenes in ep 3

Dude she hit the feminism point spot on… She’s strong and dedicated and driven and smart, but she doesn’t need to make Anakin seem like a s.h.i.t to do so. Imagine if Padme came into the Count Dooku fight and just shot and killed him. That’s what modern movies do. I think Padme is the image of a strong female character who’s values regarding love and democracy make her the perfect person to contrast Anakin, an equally strong character but in different regards Also yea, men and woman ARE different, and express strength and character in different ways. Padme ain’t no She Hulk, thank god
“Hayden’s character is really the one going through the change and mine’s more just reactive to that” yeah because they deleted all the AWESOME scenes of her with the senate, the chancellor and her secret meeting of possibly starting the Rebel Alliance. They turned her character so dull in the movie.
Natalie's an angel straight up. Anakin was right
