...thanks, you make me feel better about my spotty "TCW episodes watched" checklist XD (I have been avoiding a few of the Big Plot Drama arcs for months. I know what happens! I don't want to see it!)
the development of the war movie IS super fascinating! And so is the portrayal of war, armies and soldiers in SFF movies, because it reflects the same attitudes through different lenses. I mean I don't have any deep thoughts or unifying theories but it's just a very chewy topic.
Like for example, how the US army loans their equipment to Hollywood but in return has an input on how it is portrayed in the movies? MCU is a typical example. That's wild.

the Mina Bonteri episode is good in the politics sense, and Mina has kickass tattoos, but if you're not watching for Padmé or Ahsoka you're gonna be bored.
