  • Ice cream has to be at least 10% butterfat and 20% milk solids according to the FDA.

    DQ soft serve is 5% butterfat so would not legally qualify as ice cream, though it would qualify as low fat ice cream.

    I do believe that most soft serve is a similar fat percentage, and also has much more air per volume than traditional ice cream.

    Also, I must say as an ice cream aficionado, I do love me some soft serve and I would never disparage it by calling it “not real ice cream.”







  • I agree that a lot of the dialogue is bad. I don’t think this is a good example though. Quite the opposite, it’s a great scene. Anakin apologizes sincerely, effectively conveys his emotions and why he’s feeling the way he is, then both men tell each other how much they value their friendship. It’s some great emotional maturity and honesty.

    I think we could use more dialogue like this in movies and the real world, maybe we don’t have enough of it and that’s why it comes off as “cringey” to some.



  • Their last interaction before Anakin’s fall:

    ANAKIN: Master, I’ve disappointed you. I have not been very appreciative of your training . . . I have been arrogant and I apologize . . . I’ve just been so frustrated with the Council. Your friendship means everything to me.

    OBI-WAN: You are strong and wise, Anakin, and I am very proud of you. I have trained you since you were a small boy. I have taught you everything I know. And you have become a far greater Jedi than I could ever hope to be, and you have saved my life more times than I can remember. But be patient, Anakin. It won’t be long before the Council makes you a Jedi Master.

    OBI-WAN starts down the ramp, then turns back.

    OBI-WAN: (continuing) Don’t worry. I have enough clones with me to take three systems the size of Utapau. I think I’ll be able to handle the situation . . . even without your help.

    ANAKIN: Well, there’s always a first time.

    OBI-WAN laughs.

    They talk for a few more minutes before ANAKIN watches OBI-WAN depart.

    ANAKIN: Obi-Wan, may the Force be with you.

    OBI-WAN: Good-bye, old friend. May the Force be with you.
