#and like I’m a Star Wars fan saying this

[neon-danger]

Okay so who knows how similar they are then. :v

Idk idc sims castaway concept was fun and silly and I think we need a fun silly spin off on the sims four engine and we could’ve had a fun and silly Star Wars spin off on the sims four engine but we got a fucking piece of shit game pack

have you ever wondered what captain phasma looks like without her helm? perhaps i have an answer to your burning curiosity…

in this i’d like to also discuss some headcannons for miss phasma because cappie phazzie is just so… 🥰😍🙏✨✨

- the scar on her eye is both a cut and a burn. when she fell in all that fire the only spot unprotected by her armor was the break in her helm, and now it's a patch of burned skin. the harsher scar pictured here is present as well because that scar comes from the initial blow from finn.

- i'm also willing to bet phasma doesn't wear makeup either. "there's no time for it nor is there a need". however she would, on free time/when she's training, wear industrial/cargo pants, thick military/combat boots, and a gray tee tucked in neatly with a simple black belt. the logo to accompany that shirt is a small first order sigil near the collarbone and on her pants she would wear patches with her name, rank, and perhaps home flag on it as well as the first order's sigil as a patch.

- she's not offended by the assumption of masculinity, because she takes on the role of forceful and brutal commander whilst maintaining a strong reputation amongst the ranks of the first order. secretly, though she sees him as freakish and only tolerates him for his status, she's quite amused by kylo ren and wouldn't have it any other way. “the first order is not the same without him." she would also quietly tease him for his inability to find the map to skywalker.

- she would also probably take great pride in how shiny her armor is and routinely keep it clean on her free time, desperate to keep scuffs and marks out of it. she doesn't like deformalities, especially when it comes to her personal items.

- in terms of where her loyalties lie , she is ultimately loyal to herself despite her position and rank amongst her fellows. she would never admit it out loud though, and keep to herself about that opinion, but if it came down to her or a few members of her troops, she'd be fine with the sacrifice.

- phasma would probably pretend her baton is a lightsaber on occasion, side training with saber combat on either opponents or training dummies. if she is caught doing so, she would most certainly threaten the life of whoever caught her playing pretend. "you won't tell a soul if you value your life. now get back to work.”

- she probably secretly drinks tea in her quarters as well because she's british and it's natural.

in my humble opinion , she is most certainly , ���gaslight , gatekeep , girlboss”.

i usually stay quiet because i don’t like to engage in fandoms of any kind anymore, but the things i’ve been shown from iwtv twitter is concerning. idk what assad/armand fans think they’re trying to achieve by disrespecting jacob, delainey, sam, and the rest of the cast by saying armand is the sole reason anyone watches this show and that he’s the best actor on the show etc, but yall are not doing yourselves any favors. this is not tvd. this is not the cw. using assad for agenda shipping purposes because you hate sam/lestat, and reducing louis to an object or a prize to be won, and trying to knock louis/jacob out of his lead position on a show where he is the best/most nuanced written gay BLACK male character in history is disgusting and so extremely disrespectful to jacob who is literally the cutest/kindest human being ever.

this show is a team effort. everyone involved with iwtv are master class actors, writers, set designers, etc and when it comes to acting—to credit one actor for the show’s success is very off putting. (especially when you take into account delainey had only two weeks to prepare for claudia and gave the performance of a lifetime.) there are many who do not engage with this fandom because of takes like this and all this will do is put people off assad/armand which is the last thing anyone needs. cast members of color and characters of color should not be pit against each other on the ONLY show on tv right now that allows them to be great.

Rebels has been a comfort show for me longer than I’ve actually cared about star wars (my grade 6 self loved watching Disney XD on tv what can I say🤷🏻‍♀️)

And the main reason is because of how much the ghost crew loved each other..they were a family and I loved that about them

Anyways, I haven’t felt that same comfort until The Bad Batch and I just love it so much

I’m gonna feel super empty when this season ends :(

Bad Boys

Yeah, I like bad boys.

Bad Boys like Anakin Skywalker who rebelled against the “Non Committal Attachment Styles” of his day was defiant by getting married and having a family. Yeah, that kind of bad boys.

[soleadita]

my dad being a diego luna stan was not on my 2022 bingo card but holy SHIT it’s my favorite thing ever. (i had to tell him the new season ISN’T starting soon. he was sad about that.)

[watchingtheearthrise]

Watching someone try to desperately argue that the Rey Skywalker movie is going to ‘bomb’ unless they hire/make Adam Driver a lead over on Twitter makes me laugh. A witchy cackle, if you will.

Like, sure, because all of Adam Driver’s latest films have been box office record setters /s

[simpforthebaron]

seeing ahsoka trending when i don’t watch it is like i’m happy for you/i’m sorry that happened

[mostly-megan]

I don’t know about y’all, but that was such a good Mando episode! I love it! We got so many cool reveals lore-wise that I’m frothing over! 💚💕✨

[thewingedwolf]

i watched everything i needed to in order to watch the new episode of the mandolorian and

man, they really just gave two whole episodes of boba fett’s solo series to din, grogu, and Uncanny Valley Luke Skywalker huh, and it wasn’t even a good two episodes, they just made Ming Na Wen and Temuera Morrison give up two episodes of their lil mayoral race slash planetary drug war tv show so The Mandalorian could remind them who pays the goddamn bills around here (it’s the puppet, the cute green puppet pays the bills) and shove like an entire season’s worth of emotional arc and plot into two tacked on episodes of someone else’s show. genius.

[bereft-of-frogs]

I’m sure this has been said many times before because I’m late to the party, but Timothy, love you man, great book, but I 100% guarantee if Heir to the Empire was written by a woman it would have been so constantly shit on for the last 30 years.

This is so tropey. Like I mean that as a compliment but also sometimes reading it drives home that I know certain segments of the fandom who dump on female fanfic writers and ‘Mary Sues’ eat this stuff up. Bonus points if they’re obsessed with Thrawn and yet made fun of the Sherlock fandom.

[dashiellqvverty]

everyone always wants to talk about jenny nicholsons video essays and i’m like does ANYONE want to talk about the art of the mattress aka the sleep song. bc it plays in my head every time i see anything about her.

[teememdee]

anyways if you followed me for Star Wars stuff I’m probably still gonna keep up with the wolfwren tag for a bit and maybe pop in to see what the fic authors get up to (and maybe write my own. if the motivation really hits me) but after that I’m likely never going to talk about the franchise again beyond “I watched this and thought it was ___” because despite liking it for years and years since I was a kid I am afraid of talking about Star Wars on the internet

[bieraser]

the internal problems inherent in disney infect and corrupt so many of their works simply because you can feel the greed behind the projects. fucking disneyland or disney world or whatever is so goddamn fucking expensive with cheap food and optimally priced souvenirs, literally bloated with too many rollercoasters for people to enjoy with a full nonstop day at the park, waving pictures and tours simultaneously trying to give you fond memories and leverage your nostalgia for profit. fucking dead projects with sequels that were never meant to happen just so we could feed an ever-more-hungry fan base. consume consume consume, here’s a fucking half-baked show with a new story arc for a character who was already finished. Here’s a sequel to this funny animated movie, didn’t you just love the first one?? come take a picture with these magical stories!! its fucking predatory and sickening that a company is allowed to exist like that. It’s also heartbreaking watching them destroy the concept of an independent story just so they can make a profit. We need to be better. we need to stop letting them get away with this shit.

[mistyunmoored]

I don’t particularly care about the wild tales coming from a variety of fans on trw BUT the funniest ones are people in genuine shock that something they like is not universally beloved. be it m*rcer as the dm, the cr brand, anything else, there’s just like… so many people surprised that everyone isn’t falling over in awe and joy at the things they like. it’s so funny

Things I Learned Selling Smutty Fan Art At A Comic Convention

The overwhelming majority of women at comic conventions are into smut.

They all feel free to be excited about seeing smut around their friends, but they sneak away from the group 20 minutes later to actually buy it.

The majority of men are horrified by the sight of a guy with his shirt off.

Something can be so gay that homophobes can’t linger long enough to spout their bigoted views, lest they be seen standing near gay stuff.

Tween girls LOVE offensive stickers. LOVE. THEM.

Dads will reluctantly buy tween daughters almost anything they want.

Those dads draw the line at stickers that say “fuck me like the government.”

I knew anime was huge, but Jesus Christ, I was the only person in a Star Trek uniform at a COMIC CONVENTION. It was like 70% anime cosplay.

For all the shit people talk online, Star Wars is still huuuuuge. The day I went as Obi-Wan I was stoically told “May the force be with you” all day long by fellow Jedi.

When your friend says “if you’re going as Obi-Wan, I’m going as a sexy Anakin” you are apparently not allowed to ask “Hayden Christensen or Jake Lloyd?”
