Millie Bobby is short for Milton Robert. FYI

[–]Alienboy13 89 points90 points  (2 children)

Aren't you a little short to be a princess, Millie?

[–]jmbtrooper 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I may be exaggerating but that'd make her a Milliemetre.

I get the joke, but you should know Millie is short for Millicent.

Buzzkilling over

[–]ronsolocup 90 points91 points  (5 children)

So if she cosplays a disney villain, will she be Millificent?

[–]GetAllBlobbyThe Asset 47 points48 points  (0 children)

If she dresses up as a rapper can she be millififtycent?

Just like my friends Tim and Kim. Short for Timberly and Kimothy.

I have somehow now seen Kenobi spelled incorrectly by three different people in a Star Wars thread. Get your shit together guys.

In case you didn't already know, Obie Trice called himself Obie 1 in his early days.

Does that mean that R2D2 is Sancho Panza, the logical one who because of his low station in life hitches along for the crazy ride and basically saves the day all the time?

Oddly enough, I think that theory checks out.

OB1-KEN-OB

Friends with R2-D2

Not to be confused with 2B-or-Not-2B

[–]Cromanti 14 points15 points  (2 children)

There was an old fan theory back in the day that Obi-Wan's name was a corruption of "OB-1," and that his alphanumerical designation marked him as one of the clones that fought in the "clone wars" Luke mentioned.

Eventually debunked by the prequels, of course, but even then fans of the OB-1 Theory thought the inconsistencies with PT Obi-Wan and OT Obi-Wan (i.e. not showing any recognition of R2-D2, for example) were building up to some sort of clone reveal.

[–]VoxDraconae 6 points7 points  (0 children)

[–]BushWishperer 238 points239 points  (50 children)

Drake tried to groom Milly Bobby brown when she was like 16 years old by sending her DMs on Instagram.

[–][deleted] 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Bro he was straight up texting with her

[–]Pro-crastinator25 56 points57 points  (2 children)

What the hell man

Edit: thanks man

[–]monke1119 49 points50 points  (16 children)

Apparently drake messaged Millie Bobby brown and other minors, which he’s done in the past and he dated one once they turned 18.

[–]Kiloku 57 points58 points  (7 children)

when she was a minor

Isn't she still?

[–]monke1119 38 points39 points  (4 children)

Probably. Idk.

[–]Euphorium 43 points44 points  (3 children)

I would love to see a young Leia series. I want to see what life was like on Alderaan and how the Imperial Senate operated and how Bail Organa operated as a leader while maintaining a fledgling Rebellion.

[–]avalogsAhsoka Tano 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Read the novel "Leia, Princess of Alderaan" by Claudia Grey! It's a good one

[–]c4ntth1nkofausername 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Read Leia: Princess of Alderaan

[–]purpleslander 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As other replies have mentioned, the book by Claudia Gray is exactly about those things. It was a really great book, she writes Leia extremely well.

[–]Shadows616 33 points34 points  (9 children)

She would be an amazing Leia!

[–]TheFalconKid 34 points35 points  (0 children)

With a little bit of makeup, she looks exactly like a young Carrie Fisher. A perfect recasting imo.

[–]PainTrainMD 92 points93 points  (38 children)

Ever wonder why they are pushing Millie so hard when she has the acting range of a carrot in that show?

[–]kyo-dev 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I think that it was luck because her character in Stranger Things when it released was the most interesting because of her powers, so she became really popular in social media. It would have been the same to any other girl actress that was chosen for the character.

[–][deleted] 64 points65 points  (2 children)

I for one think she's playing girl who was raised in a bath tub her whole life pretty well.

[–]Most_Triumphant 90 points91 points  (8 children)

She’s a bit better in the Netflix Sherlock’s niece movie, but still really stiff. I’m sure she’s a fine person, but her acting isn’t as good as the hype.

[–]Brodogmillionaire1 73 points74 points  (2 children)

I think that part is better for her. She may be more of an expressive actor and not as good with a script that doesn't give her much. I think Portman was the same way in the prequels. Needs a director or writer who directs or writes for humans.

[–]thepipesarecall 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Padme’s dialogue is so awful, but that’s in line with most of the prequels.

[–]numba-juan 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You're going down a path I can't follow.

[–]Luke_starkiller34 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's also in the new King Kong and Godzilla movies

[–]SassyAssAhsoka 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Fuck I thought it was just me, I honestly don’t think she’s that good either

[–]Moar_Rawr 26 points27 points  (2 children)

I wanted to make sure Millie was who I thought she was so I googled her. Wikipedia says she has a brother named Charlie Brown.

Sadie is 18. Millie turns 18 in February. Its scary how quickly time passed between season 1 (2016?) and now. They grow up fast in Hollywood.

[–]ApfelTapirCount Dooku 217 points218 points  (2 children)

[–]Oswalt 156 points157 points  (9 children)

It’s important you add Millie. Bobby Brown is considerably different.

[–]James-VZ 28 points29 points  (2 children)

Bobby Brown as Leia would have been a huge hit.

[–]i-hear-banjos 6 points7 points  (1 child)

[–]lando1603 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[–]monsterlynn 68 points69 points  (1 child)

Or just Leia. Carrie Fisher was only 19 when she took on the role.

[–]derstherowerLuke Skywalker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Brown is 17 now, so by the time a potential Leia project got made she'd probably be older than Fisher was in A New Hope.

[–]StrangeDoctorOf_JGeneral Hux 14 points15 points  (13 children)

[–]Joe_Doblow 2 points3 points  (1 child)

She gives me Carrie Fischer vibes. Is that her name?

[–]Singer211 86 points87 points  (10 children)

I’m just saying, if they ever want to do a young Leia appearance, Millie is right there.

[–]Brodogmillionaire1 10 points11 points  (9 children)

Yeah, but her daughter was in the sequels. Maybe she'll play her mom in the prequel.

[–]ironsoul99Obi-Wan Kenobi 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’ve always said that Millie reminds me a lot of Natalie Portman, both in demeanor and in looks. She is going to be such a big star!

[–]xenoreddit01 17 points18 points  (1 child)

Is it just me or does Millie Bobby brown really remind you of a young Natalie Portman?

[–]deadeyediqq 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought she was cosplaying Padme before reading the title.

Sadie does not look too happy when she wasn't fast enough to get to pick Leia

[–]audriannadew 49 points50 points  (7 children)

She could've done padme!! So I think she chose Rey.

[–]Oswalt 22 points23 points  (4 children)

Which Padme? Giant Hair Scrolls that break your neck Padme? Nepalese Queen Padme? Desert Rat Padme? Arctic Action Padme?

[–]W__O__P__R 22 points23 points  (2 children)

I'd go for ripped shirt showing torso, sexy but in danger, colosseum Padme.

[–]vancity- 25 points26 points  (1 child)

They always choose Sexy Danger Padme

[–]audriannadew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think her white Tatooine outfit would match the vibe of Leia's best!

[–][deleted] 25 points26 points  (3 children)

Rey’s a pretty good choice though.

[–]d1s4p01ntm3nt 20 points21 points  (11 children)

Who is Sadie sink? I've seen Millie Bobby brown before but I don't recognize the name or face of the other girl

[–]FlyinNinjaSqurl 71 points72 points  (10 children)

She plays Max in Stranger Things

[–][deleted] 23 points24 points  (9 children)

And also Ziggy in Fear Street Part 2 (1978) which is a recent Netflix hit.

[–]Kiloku 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I'm pretty sure she's a couple of decades too young to have played any character in a 1978 movie

Edit: nevermind. The title is actually "Fear Street Part 2: 1978"

[–]80MauroCamus80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Then the glove and green saber!!!!

[–][deleted] 17 points18 points  (4 children)

People in here saying they want a Leia prequel now. How about no more prequels? How about stories that aren’t just about the same five characters?

I’d be fine with stories that take place between 6 and 7, but not every little gap between 1-6 needs to be filled.

[–]macbookwhoa 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Cue Drake licking lips meme.

[–]frzbrK-2SO 196 points197 points  (98 children)

If they didn’t cast Millie as a young Leia in Kenobi, they made a huge mistake

[–][deleted] 358 points359 points  (36 children)

Leia would be nine (or maybe ten) in Kenobi. You can't have a 17 year old play a nine year old.

[–]KorbenWardin 124 points125 points  (16 children)

Look, if 30-somethings can play highschoolers, I say teens are good enough for playing little kids!

[–]josephsmalls 16 points17 points  (0 children)

[–][deleted] 15 points16 points  (9 children)

30-somethings can pass for high schoolers with some makeup. You can't have a post-growth spurt person play a pre-growth spurt person, without putting the necessarily CGI-ed face (and body) smack-dab in the middle of uncanny valley. You could maybe ask a 13-year old to play a ten year old, but a 17-year old as a ten year old would be ridiculous. The CGI wouldn't be worth it anyway, when you can simply cast another actor/actress.

[–]Conap 25 points26 points  (7 children)

No, 30-somethings cannot pass for high schoolers. Movies just like to pretend that Teens = Twenties and Twenties = Thirties.

[–]Elanor_the_Holbytla 17 points18 points  (3 children)

I think this is why real teenagers often look so young - we are used to seeing them played as 20's/30's actors.

[–]literallynot 7 points8 points  (2 children)

lol, last time I went to the DMV, after years of only being exposed to teens on tv. I was HORRIFIED. THESE ARE LITERAL CHILDREN. DO NOT LET THEM DRIVE CARS.

She’d be great, not only does she have the look but she kinda has the same energy that Carrie had when she was in ANH.

Wut? If they put young Leia in Kenoby, they made a huge mistake.

Man...am I the only one hoping Disney, one day, considers telling a Star Wars story that doesn't just shovel as much fan service as possible? Is there not an original, non-Skywalker saga story to tell?

[–]Gundam_Greg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

*Drake wants to know your location

[–]fireinthedust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MBM is my top Leia actress, for any future films requiring a Leia. She looks the part, and she's got the acting chops to do a good job.
Although I'd rather she get a role moving the timeline forward, but there you have it.

Sadie Sink: Wasn't thinking about it, but she'd be awesome in SW, too!

I can't hate on either of them.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She actually kinda looks like Billie Lord

[–]Wraith_FSC 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I chanced upon this post, but I have no idea who or what a Drake is, or why people are making strange comments about two under age girls.

[–]General_Grevious_25Grievous 10 points11 points  (3 children)

Millie said she’s never even seen Star Wars though…

[–]kingssmanHan 16 points17 points  (1 child)

I'm at the age where there's more and more people like that. Or they have never seen the original trilogy.

It's interesting watching reaction vids of people watching episodes 1 through 9 for the first time in their lives.

[–]elizabnthe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leia's a genuine icon. I'm sure she's seen clips here and there but just never sat down to watch it in full.
