Star Wars Apologetics: Series 1 - The Phantom Menace - Episode 11: Anakin Says Goodbye to his Mother

March 01, 2021 by Justin Brady in Movies, Podcasts, Star Wars

Listen to The Credible Nerds discuss Episode 11 of Star Wars Apologetics Series 1: The Phantom Menace! This new series will address reasons why The Credible Nerds believe that The Phantom Menace is great Star Wars. Each episode will address one topic and how the topic is important and improves the Star Wars Skywalker Saga. This first series is about The Phantom Menace, then we will work our way through the rest of the films and end with Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker.

Justin and Harry talk about one of the most emotional moments in the Star Wars Saga. When Anakin says goodbye to his mother, Shmi Skywalker is just hearbreaking. Is it the right thing to do?

We talk about how this impacts the rest of the Prequel trilogy and how it contributes to Anakin turning to the Dark Side. Also, we discuss the fan expectations of Episode I Anakin vs what we got in the film.
