One more thing. During *that fight* between Vader and Obi-Wan in Part VI, when Obi-Wan begins gaining an advantage on Vader — he repeatedly struck him in the chest with the hilt-end of his lightsaber. He didn’t have to use the reverse grip though.

He didn’t have to use the reverse grip though.

He could have easily easily switched from reverse grip to normal grip and it would have been deadly. He had the chance to but did make the switch in his grip.

Sure, Obi-Wan had stepped foot on that planet with the mindset that he would either be him or Vader. And yet; when it came to it, even after acknowledging that his friend is no more — that it was Vader and no longer Anakin he was fighting — he could not let himself do it. He could not bring himself to kill what once used to be his brother.

And that was also why he left the fight with alive, because even as he was walking away, even all that’s been said between them in that fight — he still inherently believes part of Anakin is inside Vader. And he has reason to think that because Obi-Wan knew it was Anakin — his friend and brother — and not Vader who told Obi-Wan that it was not his fault but Vader that Anakin fell to the dark side. Vader would have no reason to want to make Obi-Wan feel less guilty or better about himself. It was Anakin. And that was why, even when he could have ended the fight, when he could have killed Vader that Obi-Wan didn’t.

Can we appreciate the fact that Mary Poppin Returns decided to stick to the old Disney style animation instead of stylising it like the modern Disney movie animations today.

Because it definitely paid homage to the original prequel movie!

What have thy done with my beloved son Luke Skywalker? @TLJ???!!!!

[wholockednicole]

This is true I was there as obi-wan’s stray eyebrow. ​This is the same guy who managed to woo a top naboo senator with his “I hate sand” and “are you an angel?” antics. Also the same guy to give a if-you’re-not-with-me-then-you’re-against-me-look-at-my-colossal-empire speech right before a fucking death match. So no, he did not learn that kind of social etiquette, responsibilities or reciprocities. And of course, he’s going to take every damn opportunity to be a drama queen about it. After all, he only learnt from the best, let-me-take-off-my-cape-before-every-fight-obi-wan-drama-queen-kenobi. So to have a self praise suffice as an “apology” is nothing less from what I expect from Anakin Skywalker.

Sudden Star Wars realization:  I’m actually kind of okay that Anakin never ACTUALLY APOLOGIZED for any of the shit he did even after he came back from Darth Vader and to the light. I’m okay with that he never once even said, “I was wrong.” or even so much as an “My bad, dude.” I’m okay with that we only ever got him saying, “Tell your sister you were right (ABOUT ME).” because, for one, that is objectively hilarious and completely on-fucking-brand for Anakin Skywalker, no apology or anything, nope, just HEY TELL EVERYONE HOW GREAT I WAS, OKAY, BYE, and dies. But, second, because even Anakin Skywalker knows that that the very first person he needs to apologize to is Obi-Wan Kenobi. Anakin dying without so much as a “oops mea culpa” is now because the very first thing he’s going to do as a Force Ghost is fling himself at Obi-Wan, start crying, and saying he’s so very, very sorry for all of it, for killing all those people, for making such shitty choices, for making Obi-Wan’s life miserable, for all of it. (Obi-Wan already knew, of course, and that’s part of why he helped Anakin over to the other side, but he’s so proud of Anakin for actually being able to finally admit to his mistakes.  Of course he forgives him and there’s a lot of soothingly patting Anakin’s newly restored beautiful hair.) ANYWAY, OBI-WAN KENOBI IS THE VERY FIRST PERSON ANAKIN SHOULD APOLOGIZE TO, NO, I WILL NOT BE TAKING SUGGESTIONS OTHERWISE.

One thing I noticed in Part IV is how much Obi-Wan’s emotions for Leia and Luke served to motivate him during his fight with Vader. He was stuck in the pit, drowning in regrets and grief of his time with Anakin until his memories of Anakin’s children gave him motivation and strength to break out.

This is very opposed to the whole Jedi ideal of being rid of attachment and meditating to maintain a clear mind in order to focus on ad use the Force — which was likely how Obi-Wan Kenobi, exemplary Jedi Master would have garnered his Force abilities from before.

The fact that Obi-Wan Kenobi in his interactions with Anakin’s children has allowed himself to break away from what is conventional Jedi ways of garnering the Force and instead use that attachment, care and love he has for his brother’s children to fuel him is one reason I’m not over that scene.

Everyday is the right day and every time is the right time to ask @starwars, where is my Obi-Wan Solo Movie starring nobody else but Ewan McGregor?!

I demand an explaination.

Being accustomed to pain is different from not having pain. Finding a way to work around the pain does not dismiss the fact the pain is still there, no lesser than before.

-When I told the army doctor that sometimes my period pains make me unable to function for days, he didn’t even write that down. -When I told my dad “don’t touch me, I’m in pain�� he backed down for a moment until my mom told him “she’s on her period”. Then he just laughed. -When I told my teacher before a big test that I was unable to do it because I was in extreme pain and could barely move at all, she said I was making up excuses and that it wasn’t a real reason not to do the test.  -Wenever I tell someone about how different I feel during my period emotionally they say I’m just “making up drama”.  We need to start treating people on their periods like actual human beings in pain. 

-The fact that it occurs monthly doesn’t make the pain less real. It should be treated seriously and with respect. -The fact that the hormones effect the emotions doesn’t make your sadness less painful or the anger less valid or that terrible feeling of being lost less terrifying. Guess what? Hormones affect everyone. Feelings aren’t always rational. It should be also treated seriously and with respect.

Please stop mocking people with periods. Please stop dismissing us. Please stop violating our boundries. Please respect people with periods.

In which I showcase how the MCU has once again, subjected my son, Tony Stark, to his worst nightmare and let him die in space (again).

At the end of Avengers 1, we see that in his attempt to save NYC, he flung his stubborn self-sacrificing ass into space where he was ready to die then and there — in space.

3 movies and years later, his suffering has not only been escalated by multitudes due to falling out and traumas, but he’s also, yet again, DYING IN SPACE..

Now we’ve seen in the subsequent Iron Man movies how the alien attack on NY triggers Tony’s anxiety. I’m willing to bet that being alone in space, having the entire cosmos and universe in front of him is both a reminder of his worst fears and anxiety-inducing for him.

Arguably, he did visit space again in Avengers:IW with Stephen and Peter. But he wasn’t alone then and they had quickly found themselves within the four walls (“security”) of the space ship. Thus, in that scenario, he didn’t need to experience the same desolation he experienced in Avengers as induced by the emptiness of space.

In Avengers: Endgame’s trailer however, we see Tony not only running out of food, water and oxygen, but forced to confront the fact that he’s once again, alone, in the vast abyss of space. This serves not only as a reminder of his first trauma in space in Avengers, but also reminds him that he has not managed to secure Earth from his worst fears (i.e. the very reason he co-created Ultron as a preemptive to safeguard Earth).

In essence, the scene featuring Tony alone in space, not only portrays him in solitude and with zero means of survival, it demonstrates his hopelessness because we’re talking about the same man that created a whole badass armour in order to save himself from the shrapnel in his heart.

To make matters worse, the scene that depicts Tony in lost hope and solitude, also showcases my son experiencing the same feeling of anxiety and fear induced upon him in Avengers. Moreover, he is possibly also reminded of the fact that he has failed to save the people he cared about (which is an additional toll he has to bear on top of the losses following the decimation in IW).

TLDR: can you even imagine the pain, desperation and guilt that my son, Tony Stark has to bear even in his dying moments alone in the very situation that he found himself in in Avengers 1, while being reminded that the very reason he was up in space dying again was due to his failure to safeguard Earth. No? Me either. I’ll be right back after I’m done crying.

Look I love Thor and all, but for a guy named “God of Thunder” he sure as hell generates more lightning than “fnckxjnajajznzooah” sounds in the movie.

Let’s be real, if Loki was so adamant on claiming the surname Odinson because he didn’t want to be recognised as Odin’s child, he could just have dropped the drama and called himself “Loki Friggason”.

But no, he’s the God of Drama

Their friendship is heartbreaking because anakin’s fall was so clearly inevitable if only they both had been clearer in communicating their love for his one another. They just both deserved so much more.

I cry everytime .. they shoud just go fight grievous together, like why anakin you are always disobeying.. like why didnt you disobey the council in this and go with obi-wan !!!.. but what angrers me the most was that the main problem was lack of communication D:

It would have been so easy for Anakin to watch Obi-wan with his soft smile and his tired eyes saying he’s proud of him and saying goodbye like they’re not going to see each other for a while and deciding “fuck it, I don’t like you being alone, you need me and I’m going with you” and of course Obi-wan would have been annoyed and uncomfortable to go against the will of the council, but also reassured to have Anakin with him.  The lack of communication sometimes drives a wedge between them, or rather, Anakin not talking about what’s bothering him and Obi-wan’s private nature making him think than giving Anakin space will make it easier for him. None of them are more responsible than the other, Anakin had the right to keep things to himself and I’m sure Obi-wan truly believed that Anakin knew he could come to him about anything. Palpatine, of course, knew how to take advantage of this and played on all their insecurities.

No offence but if Loki and Dr. Strange shared a scene together. This means tom hiddleston and Benedict cumberbatch got reunited once more. How cute is that.

I must add that he downed a shot of vodka(if I’m not mistaken about the drink) before proceeding to kill the vocals! What a Queen

So the story behind this song, is heart breaking and heart warming at the same time. Brian May, the guitarist for Queen, wrote this song for the 1991 Queen album Innuendo. The song was written about how even though Freddie Mercury was slowly dying from AIDS, he was still doing shows, writing, and making music with the band. When they were recording the song, they were worried the Freddie would not have had the strength to do the vocals, because it was getting much worse, and was bed ridden, but he recorded it, and killed it. There will be no one like Freddie Mercury. I don’t care what anyone says, Queen was and still is the best band ever to exist.
