The galaxy keeps bending around over and over again toward Tatooine. It is the planet that is furthest from the bright center of the universe but that doesn't stop it from being sand Rome.
The only thing that makes Tatooine special is that it was originally the complete ass end of nowhere, but the
hoot and holler when media shows them a thing they've already seen
That's one of the most offputting parts of Star Wars in general: it's bent into the gravity well of its fandom so much that the ass-end of space is also where more of its events seem to happen compared to other planets.
Does the Star Wars Fandom^TM^ discuss anything other than the latest conspiracy about evil witch Kathleen Kennedy building a time machine to go back in time and kill George Lucas?
There's still eternal "who would win in a fight" calipers-laden midi-chlorian-fixated dick-waving contests between the fandoms of numerous glowbat-wavers.
I am so tired
Also thank god you’re back, you don’t know just how much treatposting went unchecked in your absence
It’s got decades and decades of mythos built by countless artists and writers but the studios who run it, and George Lucas himself apparently, are so money hungry they reduse to take risks
That planet was meant all along to be an unremarkable sort of boring place to grow up on purpose with weird local problems but otherwise nothing that screamed SPACE ADVENTURE except the desire to leave it.
Not all of it :(
Trioculus begs to differ
Some of the old stuff was bad, some wasn't.
The ark of history is long, but it bends towards Tatooine.
Anakin's irritation at how coarse it is intensifies
Rey burying her postmortem-adopted family's lightsabers in the place that they both strongly disliked and had traumatic experiences in intensifies
