Star Wars has been a huge topic of discussion on social media this weekend thanks to the latest episode of Star Wars: The Mandalorian. The new episode featured the live-action debut of Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels‘ Ahsoka Tano, who was played by Rosario Dawson. The character’s first appearance in the series has sparked all sorts of Star Wars chatter. In fact, certain characters who are not even in The Mandalorian are starting to trend on the social media site. You may have noticed a lot of people are chatting about Obi-Wan tonight, and he’s not the only one. Many fans have taken to Twitter to share some thoughts about Padmé Amidala, the character played by Natalie Portman.

It appears the trend began after someone tweeted, “Say something nice about Attack of the Clones.” You can check out that tweet here:

Apparently, most of the nice things people have to say about Episode II revolve around both Obi-Wan and Padmé. In honor of the mother of Luke and Leia, we compiled some of the best Padmé tweets from the night for you to enjoy. You can check them out below…

I don’t know why Padme is trending, but here’s a reminder that she’s the absolute best even with the OT seriously messing with her character sometimes. So few luxurious, ultra-feminine, whip smart, born-leader, justice warrior characters out there and she was fantastic. pic.twitter.com/UC6LzMhAI4

anakin was a completely different person around padmé, always happy and smiling and loving. and for her to watch him change into someone so dark and angry and completely different from the anakin she’d always known, in just a matter of days… pic.twitter.com/aZTvnGDUwo
