happy pride month to jack sparrow he gets free reign for the coming thirty days since he's homo supreme but after that we hunt him with knives again

Nobody is doing it like pirates of the caribbean was doing it. The first movie spends 20 minutes introducing us to every main character, their thoughts on piracy, and how nuanced and fraught the subject is in port royal, and then proceeds to introduce the most pirate pirate to ever pirate

Potc is crazy because it spends 90% of its time with wacky pirate shenanigans and then every so often it stops and stares you dead in the eyes and asks what it would take for you to abandon your moral philosophy and at what point the greater good outweighs the individual good and then it goes right back to wacky pirate shenanigans .5 seconds later

After so many pilots in star wars saying "i can fly anything" it's so refreshing to see cassian andor be just. absolutely incapable of figuring out the controls of a ship

honestly my favorite thing about andor was how important the women were to the rebellion. you don’t have luthen without kleya. their main agents are vel and cinta. you don’t have aldhani without them. you don’t have cassian without bix and maarva. you don’t even have the alliance without mon. none of this exists without the women and that’s so so important.

Also, despicable though she is, the Empire would have missed out on key observations entirely were it not for Dedra. The arrogance destroyed her, but it also was what made her effective for as long as she was able to do her work. She caught things that otherwise went overlooked by (most of) her male colleagues and superiors. Am not justifying her actions or motivations, just recognizing that the dynamic is present.

Andor makes me want to write a Star Wars fanfiction but it's so scary. What if I write "Glup Shitto was sitting on the balcony, drinking coffee and reading his favourite book", but someone comments "didn't you mean he was drinking glop-goppy and reading a holo-journal? 🤨" so I open wookiepedia to check it out and it turns out that they also never invented balconies in the star wars universe and Glup Shitto can't read because of the freak accident he suffered in the episode 10 of the 2024 show "Jar-Jar and Babu Frik". What then.

for every incel white man star wars dudebro there is a teenage lesbian with a slightly deeper and more obscure knowledge of star wars who will one day defeat him in battle
