fantastic mr fox says something about fatherhood that’s batshit insane and I don’t think the movie actually knows it’s saying it. it just takes you by the shoulders and makes you look square in its eyes and goes “some men should never have been fathers. they are. and they love their children deeply. and they try so very hard. but that doesn’t mean they should have been fathers.” and then just gets up and leaves you with that like you’re meant to be okay afterward

Meanwhile Todoroki is ready to fight Zuko for Iroh

Tell me a soft memory
"do you dream of mom" he dreams of this: a hospital room, quiet mornings on the beach, a toddler stumbling in the surf, ancient words whispered as a lullaby, a woman he's waited for for a thousand years, a life he cannot have, a life she will not take, a promise he cannot keep.
A lot of the portrayals of the gods have caught me off guard. Ares especially. And they’ve all been great!
But Hades is great in a very different way. Because the Hades as portrayed in the show is how I remembered Hades from the books even though it wasn’t how he was actually written!
A lonely, out-of-touch guy just trying to do his best with a terrible situation. Awkward, nervous, but also totally in command. Not entirely likeable, but not awful either. A sad little meow-meow just like his son.
Boba Fett’s reputation as the best bounty hunter in the galaxy comes from him pulling off an insane number of jobs throughout his life, some of which were even deemed impossible for a lone hunter to pull off
funnily enough, he doesn’t actually remember completing all of the ones people attribute to him, but after seeing the footage and biometric proof, he assumes that he’s been blacking out and entering some sort of exhaustion fugue state, or maybe he’s just had a few too many concussions
it’s not until he tries to claim a puck from the guild and is told that he’s already working that job that he starts to figure out that something more is going on, and decides to investigate who it is that’s been working this job
as it turns out, there’s actually like ten different escaped clones pulling bounties under his name, considering they all share the same DNA and face, who’ve put together a few fake versions of his father’s armor
many of them even work in teams, trading off who gets to ‘play Boba’ to the guild or clients
(they’ve also been using their shared DNA to access his space netflix account, which explains why the recommendation algorithm never seems to figure out what he likes and keeps telling him that he’s already watched shows he finds)
(strangely, he realizes that they haven’t touched any of his bank accounts, despite the fact that they could certainly have gotten through their security measures the same way)
after discovering this, he considers confronting them, killing them, even just turning them in to the guild
but then he’d lose some of his reputation if it comes out that impersonators can mimic him well enough to get the job done just as well as he could
so he just sends them all a message telling them to not fuck this up and continues with this life
Apparently jeremy allen white isn’t from chicago?!!!! This is a world of LIES!
Absolutely delighted about how Felony didn’t give any explanation for WHY Jacen would want to be a Jedi, WHY that was meant to be such a killer line, just absolutely no context about it whatsoever, not even Hera looking more than fondly amused that her kid wants to be a Jedi like Sabine, SINK OR SWIM IN THE NARRATIVE ON YOUR OWN, FILTHY CASUALS, HE IS NOT THROWING YOU A LIFE PRESERVER.
I FINALLY FOUND IT AGAIN

This is how it goes: God whispers in Cain’s jealous ear, drawing his attention to the Sin crouched at his doorway. Sin has haunted eyes and a mouth that has been kissed. Let there be no doubt that Sin has been kissed, with a wet-red mouth that may taste of blood or pomegranate or the electric crackle of a stoplight. Cain looks at Sin. He runs his tongue over his teeth.
This is how it goes: Cain leaves the house at one am in bare feet and a hoodie, careful to avoid the last stair that creaks, and treks out into the Field. There are many fields in the world but there is only one Field. Cain feels the difference in the grass when he crosses the border from field to Field, the way the grey-green blades stand up at attention in his wake, the way the dirt turns ice-cold and furious beneath his heels. The earth is good with foreshadowing. The tree of Knowledge has deep roots.
This is how it goes: God says, I will take you or your brother.
God says, You get to choose.
And Cain says, “When you split me and my brother in the womb, you did not divide us evenly. He got kindness, and I got longing. He got complacence, and I got ambition. I want to kill him sometimes. I think sometimes he wants to die.”
I have never made brothers before, God explains. That is how I thought they were made. What more do you want?
“I want to steal some of his kindness,” Cain says, and shakes his pocket knife out of his sleeve.
Back at home, Abel sits up in his bed with a start, heart racing. That was close, he thinks, that was a damn close one, and does not know why.
In the Field, the ground warms as blood seeps into the dirt.
me holding a gun to a mushroom: tell me the name of god you fungal piece of shit
mushroom: can you feel your heart burning? can you feel the struggle within? the fear within me is beyond anything your soul can make. you cannot kill me in a way that matters
me cocking the gun, tears streaming down my face: I’M NOT FUCKING SCARED OF YOU
Sometimes when I think about these images, about Ezra’s high key instinct to protect Sabine when it came to her family and the Darksaber and Mandalore, I head canon that that’s the reason he gave her his lightsaber. And his home.
Not just because he trusted her to protect them.
But also because he wanted them to protect her.
Because he knew. He knew something bad was coming. I think he knew that no matter what path won out, Mandalore would always fall.
Sabine even said that nothing but grief had come to her family through the Darksaber.
And Ezra knew that he couldn’t stay and she couldn’t go, that he wouldn’t be there beside Sabine when it happened. So Ezra did the only thing he could do to protect her whether she decided to fight or hide.
He left pieces of himself behind.
And then when I think about that, those weren’t just pieces of Ezra. Being a Jedi and Lothal were two of the three the most important things to him. They were all of him actually. His whole life.
So he gave them to her. Because she was that secret third thing.
By giving both Lothal and his lightsaber to Sabine, Ezra effectively laid down his life to protect her in his absence. He went weaponless and alone into the unknown, leaving Lothal to her care, so that when the worst happened, Sabine would have a way to fight or fly. Both a sword and a shield. She would have a home when there wasn’t one to go back to. He basically pledged that, no matter what she chose, he would serve her until her song was written, even when he was marching far away. And I love that about him.
i made a new uquiz to figure out what kind of guy you are
I can’t get over the continued thematic follow-through of this idea that Jedi aren’t truly Jedi unless they’re standing up in defense of the innocent and helpless, they have to be active in the galaxy, they have to spread kindness and compassion wherever they go, it’s an uncontrollable urge, it’s an itch, “They cannot help it.“
And also the idea that it’s FORCE ITSELF that is whispering to them, calling them back, calling them home, telling them to take up their swords again, reach out in faith and find that the Light never left you, it’s still inside you and it needs you because the galaxy is so so dark and bleak and hopeless and there’s so much evil everywhere and the galaxy needs them to stand up and step out of the shadows and into the light so that they can reignite people’s hope.
It’s the pauses of awe and wonder in even the most miserable and selfish of underworld denizens because that’s a Jedi, the Jedi are back, the Jedi are here, everything will be okay now.
It’s F knighting herself, cutting her own padawan braid and proudly declaring she is a Jedi to save a frightened exploited village bride.
It’s Kanan igniting his saber for the first time in years to protect his future padawan and a clutch of Wookie slaves and the rattled composure in the Imperials when they realize, “Holy shit that’s a Jedi.“
It’s Cal and Cere deciding they were done hiding, done running from the Empire, they were going to fight back, and Saw gleefully pointing to them to inspire his band of Rebels.
It’s Obi-Wan unburying his lightsaber even after being so hopeless and broken and full of guilt and self-blame because people still need him, he’s the only one they can trust.
The whole Dark Times as a sloooooowly turning eucatastrophe, tiny lights of hope struggling to hold back the darkness long enough. Holding out. Buying time until the twin suns can rise. Until Luke and Leia and the destruction of the Death Star and the death of the Emperor and the glorious return of light to the galaxy.
I love it.
The urban fantasy show I actually want to see is a hospital drama with a dedicated wing for supernatural illnesses.
Vampirism. Lycanthropy. Cheap spells gone wrong. A woman brought in for her prenatal has to be told her baby is a lindworm. Someone is literally being followed by the anthropomorphic personification of the Black Death.
Someone somewhere out there is having their perception of the world irreparably shattered by the knowledge that magic is real, and at the other side is a team of doctors who have to roll their eyes and pull out Grimm’s Complete Fairy Tales because some high school kid tried to go Carrie with a cheap spellbook and turn all the kids at prom into frogs, and the doctors have to wrangle a couple dozen teenagers into admitting if they have a true love who can break the spell.
Once the results are done, I'll multiply 255 to the decimal version of the percentage, and see what color we make!!
Ok actually genuine tip for new tumblr users: if you see a post you like and want to reblog but theres a bad/annoying added on bit in the reblog chain feel free to just reblog that post straight from op or the last person who knew how to mind their business

cassian never sees the death star plans.
he never knows that he was forced to build the very weapon that they used to kill him, kill millions of others.
he never knows that so many men died — were tortured, and traumatised, all so that the empire could kill millions more.
he never knows any of this, because they killed him with that same weapon too.
I have hope in Andor Season 2, not because I trust Disney, but because Tony Gilroy seems unhinged enough to rip Disney apart with his bare teeth if they tried to touch his show, like he’s completely off the rails what kind of man says “we are all living in a prequel, we are all going to die” he’s unhinged and I’m obsessed with that-
There is no sun, there is no sun, there is no sun, there is no SUN IN THE LAST EPISODE OF ANDOR. EVERYTHING IS DARK OR CLOUDY, NO SUNSETS OR SUNRISES. THERE IS NO LIGHT ON CASSIAN’S FACE EXEPT FROM THE TIME THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT MAARVA IN THE TUNNELS, BECAUSE THE LAST TIME HE TALKED ABOUT MAARVA THE SUN WAS HIDDEN BEHIND THE CLOUDS AND HE LEARNED SHE’S DEAD.
THERE IS NO SUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tony gilroy watched rogue one, laughed and then said “you think that’s pain? hold my b2emo”
