Weird stuff on my mind

Did she say anything right then and there? If not, it clearly wasn't that big of a deal. He's focused on his role, not what someone behind him is doing. It would be the director's job to notice that.

So no assault or aggression there, veiled or otherwise. At worst, he was a bit rude.

Asking privacy during rehearsals isn't a thing exclusive to him, by the way.

And the whole thing with him getting people fired? Lies, as proven by the producers.

Believe victims, yes. When their story is clear on what exactly happened and doesn't contradict itself or immediately get proven false. An actual victim coming out would have details and wouldn't change tune the minute someone asks for them.

Fuck all you people who jumped on the cancel bandwagon because of translations by people who say they speak the language but every translation contradicts the others. Were you really fans of his in the first place if you were this quick to turn on him?

My thoughts on this.

I'm not saying she's lying. From what I've heard, she's a classy lady who wouldn't do something like that. Would someone on the internet looking for engagement blow something out of proportion? Likely. Wouldn't be the first time someone decided to start stirring drama.

As for the chair bit, sounds to me like he got frustrated about something, possibly cursed and kicked a chair. Professional, no. Understandable, yes.

Perhaps, as a proper lady, she found his behavior unprofessional/childish, not violent/scary. Why would she stay in the production if she was that scared of him?

And the prima donna bit, others have pointed out that extras not being allowed to interact with the leads outside of scenes is a thing people have gotten fired for. And really, is it that unreasonable of him to ask that people not directly involved with the scene not stand around and stare at him? If it makes him more comfortable and doesn't make other people's jobs harder, is it really him being a prima donna?

The Portuguese article I saw making rounds said he "behaved badly", which could mean just about anything.

Still pathetic and annoying, I see.

Blocked. Every. Single. One.

Going into TROS I knew everything and she knew nothing, other than the fact that I didn't like it. And I think I might've managed to convert her. At least partially.

The whole time she was questioning everything, like this doesn't make any sense why did they change that why did they do that are they stupid. Also, having the PT fresh in her memory, she was thoroughly convinced that the so-called good guys weren't so good after all. As in, she thought it was downright cruel of Obi-wan to leave Anakin alive on Mustafar since he was clearly suffering. Like, if you're gonna mutilate him like that, at least finish what you started.

We had a lot of fun laughing at Rey constantly abandoning her friends and like five minutes later Ben shows up. Every time.

She thought Hux's reason for turning spy was childish. She had no idea who tf the knights were and the fact that they didn't do anything but stand around menacingly didn't help. She thought reforging the mask was stupid. She thought throwing away the saber was stupid.

And one of the biggest complaints she had was everything about Palpatine. Why bring him back? Why make Rey related to him when Rey Nobody was great as she was? And it's stupid as fuck that Luke and Leia somehow knew and didn't hold it against her because she wasn't afraid. Yet they seemed terrified at the idea of Ben being anything like Anakin (even though they are just as much related to him as he is...).

As it turns out, she's all for Ben's redemption and saw no reason whatsoever why he couldn't have lived. She thought the previous films showed that he's never been all that evil to begin with and he doesn't even do much of anything in this one, besides keep asking Rey to join him. She thought it might've actually been not-bad for her to agree. Them both going and killing Palpatine together sounded pretty reasonable. Why spend half the movie looking for the wayfinder when he's offering to take her there right now. And since Palpatine was behind it all the whole time and was manipulating him, he's more of an anti-villain in her eyes. I, of course, informed her that the dudes on Mustafar weren't exactly good guys, and that he directly contradicts what he said in TFA re: kidnapping kids vs using clones. To name a few.

She thought the whole Force healing thing was stupid and contrived, and when Ben crawled out of the pit she was all "Is he now gonna heal her or something? Or like give his own life force to save her?" And I couldn't help but laugh. Exactly that, my friend. She compared it to Titanic. Reylo being confirmed canon she seemed to have no problem with.

She thought Rey taking the Skywalker name was as stupid as it gets. She would've preferred Rey go "Yes, I'm a Palpatine. So what?" and own it, since the movie was all "don't be afraid of who you are". She did think my joke, that if they wanted to go full Titanic on this, there was another S-name she could've chosen, hilarious.

At the end, she told me she didn't expect it to be that bad and that it had to be just my biased opinion. Now she agrees that it absolutely was horse shit. From start to finish. (You should've seen the look on her face when I told her that while this was bad, the Trevorrow script was worse.)

As for me, I knew it would suck and I was right to think so. I can't say I enjoyed myself. I could've lived without seeing that. Time to read some fix-its.

(And cherry on the shit sundae, the subtitles were constantly mistranslated. Not enough to be funny (ie Backstroke of the West levels) but enough to be annoying.)

I was 10 when Revenge of the Sith came out. To this day I've watched it maybe three times. I just can't bring myself to do it. It's too tragic.

Holy shit listen to this I'm crying again.

You speak to me through dreams

Your love transcends mortality, oh

The thread of life is barely in my grasp

For I crave to be with you more than anything

I'm longing ocean deep

There's no remedy

Chasing ghosts and dreams

Lost felicity

Somewhere ocean deep

In my memories

The wound inside won't heal

Until we join in eternal sleep

You reach to me so serene

From beyond, where you rest in peace, oh

You stay a while then fade away with a smile

Here I am at work, bawling my eyes out while scrolling the tag.

I got tickets for a showing in 5 hours but I don't even know if I want to see it anymore.

I don't know if I could handle it.

So, while browsing I came across this shirt. It says "Nothing will stop the return of the Sith", trying to be all edgy and shit.

Now who said to who "You're nothing"?

Note. The following images are from starwarsscreencaps.com.

This is right after the last guard falls. You can clearly see his lightsaber in the middle like three feet from where he’s standing.

This is after Rey runs to look at the fleet and then turns back to face him. The saber is now on his belt. The time she wasn’t looking at him was plenty enough for him to pick it up.

Still there.

STILL there.

Unless of course you mean to imply that it unhooked itself when the saber split and they went flying.

Also known as the tale of how I lost the last shreds of my sanity in a galaxy far far away.

Today’s topic is something that has been on my mind in general for 20 years and in particular for a year and a half. Star Wars. Specifically a certain ship associated with the Sequel Trilogy. You’ll see.

Warning. Long as fuck text-only post under the cut. Also I may curse occasionally. I apologize.
