Would Anakin have fallen if Qui-Gon trained him?

It's a popular fan debate, but many believe Qui-Gon Jinn's unconventional, fatherly approach and focus on the Living Force would have better grounded Anakin, potentially preventing his fall by providing the emotional understanding and connection to the Force he lacked with the rigid Council and brotherly Obi-Wan, though some argue Anakin's inherent flaws and Palpatine's manipulation would have eventually led him to the dark side regardless, making it a complex "what if".

Why did Padme not wear a bra?

Padmé didn't wear bras (or underwear) in Star Wars because director George Lucas famously told Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia) there was "no underwear in space," a rule extended to other characters like Padmé, suggesting a sci-fi lack of undergarments for comfort or visual reasons, though Carrie Fisher found the rule odd and compared it to Padmé's frequent costume changes, as cited in Wookieepedia and Reddit. While Leia famously went braless under her white robes (using gaffer tape instead), Padmé's elaborate outfits often made bras impractical or unnecessary for the desired look.

Is Darth Plagueis technically Anakin's father?

No, Darth Plagueis is not Anakin Skywalker's biological father, but there's a strong theory (especially in Star Wars Legends and early drafts) that his experiments with midi-chlorians to create life led the Force itself to create Anakin, the Chosen One, as a reaction, making Plagueis the "unintentional father" of the prophecy. In current canon, Plagueis is a legend Palpatine uses to lure Anakin, and the exact nature of Anakin's conception by the Force remains a mystery, though he had no conventional father.

What is rule 37 in Star Wars?
