Star Wars!

I know this is an ✨unpopular opinion✨ but George Lucas was right when he originally created Ahsoka to make Anakin a more responsible character so that when she died in Order 66, the audience would feel the full and horrible weight of that betrayal and massacre personally. He was right. Ahsoka was meant to be a player and casualty in Anakin's tragedy, same as every other Jedi in the prequels. She was never meant to stand beside a deep-fake rendering of Anakin's son. This is what happens when a character's sellability and popularity are prioritised over their narrative purpose. Ahsoka Tano as she exists in the Disney+ shows is no longer a character, let alone in character. She stopped being a character the moment Kathleen Kennedy and Dave Filoni decided she should live because people liked her. No, Disney+ Ahsoka Tano is a walking talking nostalgia-bait toy with no purpose other than being an in-house advertisement, and giving *alleged* transphobe Rosario Dawson rent money. Shame on Disney for Everything™

revenge of the sith is still so fucking funny, because, like, the separatists invade coruscant, and kidnap the head of state. that’s a war-winning action. at that point, they just motherfucking won the war, unless a miracle happens. and then you have half the jedi council and a bunch of other jedi just chilling in the jedi temple, on their fucking doomsday, feet propped up and relaxing, and the council still chooses to call anakin and obi-wan from the other ass-end of the galaxy in the “outer rim sieges” to come fix this shit, like yoda wasn’t right motherfucking there. yoda was sitting on the fucking couch! and they STILL called obi-wan and anakin from the OTHER END OF THE GALAXY. in no ways was anakin spiritually prepared to be a jedi master, but motherfucker i kind of get why he was pissed. i kind of understand that. if i got called into work to save the day and i walked in and the rest of the staff was just sitting, and i still saved the day, and then they denied me a promotion, i’d have fucking quit. he’s not spiritually ready by any means and in fact he’s deeply turbofucked, but i understand where he was coming from. i understand, man.

rots plot rlly is just anakin having what is in all honesty a completely valid crashout for a college student who’s gotten less than negative sleep in the past week. the problem here is that anakin also happens to be some kind of vaguely eldritch force entity with severe anger issues so when he has a crashout that bad it has permanent lasting consequences for the entire galaxy 😭 what he rlly needed was to just be able to have it out with obi wan until he tired himself out and then obi wan could put him back to bed with padme and he’d wake up in the morning like he was just really badly hungover. unfortunately chancellor groomer over here really wanted that eldritch crashout and was pulling the equivalent of scheduling all of anakin’s finals back to back on the exact same day and then when anakin complained to him about it he was like yeah it’s so messed up of your Other professors to do that. you should kill them about it

Jaina, Ben, and the Antilles sisters should start a groupchat to bitch about the woes of being the kids of the galaxy's greatest heroes.
