[@John-ct9zs]

It's amazing to think that in 1999 the original Star Wars was 22 years ago in 1977, which felt like an eternity ago at the time. Now we're in 2024 and we're 25 years away from 1999, and to me the late 90s and 2000s doesn't feel all that long ago. But I guess to kids or early 20s people it must feel like a long time ago.

[@MidwestWind]

Omg. I am in an existential crisis now

[@boonnathan]

Dude smoke a bong. Haha.

[@bozotheclown169]

ikr, i remember obsessing on Phantom Menace (the build up to it) throughout 99 downloading the trailers on early internet (that it was reporrted ppl were going to see movies like Meet Joe Black and The Siege just to see TPM trailer then leave) the posters, the vanity fair issue etc (and thered been the OT SW re-releases with new FX in cinemas the previous year), and back then the SW trilogy seemed an eternity ago (actually only 16y. i saw Jedi at the cinema in 83 and then ANH/ESB later on tv/vhs)..now TPM is like 25years ago!! hell even TFA is coming up for 10y and that literally feels just the other month!

Natalie - intelligent, beautiful, graceful, well-poised, humble, and interesting. One in a billion woman in 2024.

[@natalieportmanfan1817]

[@TOFKAS01]

Ask Sarah Lane about the "humble" part.....She has zero chemistry, full stop. Think about it: she’s been in films with lots of sexy actors - Hemsworth, Eric Banna, Vincent Cassel - and she has NO chemistry with any of them. Natalie has an amazingly beautiful face - it’s pretty much perfect - but your average shop mannequin has more sex appeal and charisma than she has.

Her correcting Seth and saying "football". The world thanks you 💞

[@GD-tt6hl]

It isn't called football because you kick a ball with your foot, it was called football because it was done-on foot-rather than a sport on a horse which was much more common around the formation of football. People get the origin wrong all the time, the name has literally nothing to do with kicking a ball. Whenever people say handegg it drives me crazy and reminds me of their ignorance.

[@RubenWillems1]

@@GD-tt6hl you handegg fanatics always make me laugh

[@GD-tt6hl]

@@RubenWillems1 an obvious fact isn't always correct. Just like the world's ignorance of the greatest sport. American football. We understand soccer better because we play basketball and hockey, those sports are basically a rules altered soccer like game. So we understand soccer better because of our familiarity with those sports. But the world has nothing like American football and is completely ignorant of the complexity and the elegance of the game. The world has nothing like it. Even rugby and Australian rules is closer to soccer than American football. There is literally no sport in the world like it. That's why American are more informed on the topic.

[@neildurbin]

This dude stands in front of elevators screaming and crying at everyone leaving, "Its called a lift! its called a lift!!!" 😂

@@GD-tt6hl That's likely also a sign of its limited global appeal. If more populations were interested in the sport, the awareness of that etymology would be higher.

[@chamamemestre]

She is 43 now. She is still young, which is why she looks good. She was 18 in Star Wars.

[@phobos258]

healthy choices have a lot more to do with it than her being that age. There are 30 and 40-year-old women who look twice her age.

[@nighthiker]

​@@phobos258Privilege has a lot more to do with it, you mean. Most people, regardless of genre, don't even have access to these "healthy choices" you talk about, be it for financial reasons or simply lack of education. That's not a knock on her, it's not her fault we live in a pretty unequal society, but it's important to understand privilege is a thing.

[@keve4253]

her being vegan is why she looks good, people who are lifelong vegetarians/vegans are always looking younger

[@nighthiker]

@@keve4253 Not eally. It so happens that usually vegans have on average a higher social economic status, better healthcare and pair their diet with other lifestyle choices that help with their health, like regular exercise. Studies which control for such outside influences and properly isolate the effects of vegan, vegetarian and omnivorous diets find no significant difference on health indicators among the participants, all else being the same.

[@wyomingsioux]

⁠@@nighthikerit’s an excellent point that concurrent factors like socioeconomic status should be considered. That is not to say that a vegan lifestyle is not without benefits but a more balanced view is that it comes with potential risks as well. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10027313/
