you know what screw it i'm gonna say it:
every time i come across a post claiming that andor is the only good live action star wars content we've gotten since 2005 it makes me want to fight someone. i'm ready to start throwing box sets of the hobbit lotr and the silm at people. i am going to Scream
#gonna rant in the tags#turning off the reblogs bc i hate confrontation#'all the other series have been hollow corporate--'#WHAT EXACTLY ABT OBI-WAN KENOBI FELT HOLLOW TO YOU#the narrative about hope and healing and letting go and forgiveness and grief and learning to live again????#'there's no jedi and no magic so there are no cop-outs'#star wars is science fantasy!!!#there has always been magic and it's not some deus ex machina that ruins the plot!!!!#it's woven into the very fabric of their universe!!!!#complaining about cameo-driven plots in the mandalorian makes no sense to me!!!!#it's called tying it into the larger plot/universe!!!! bc it's literally abt a side character!!!!#'it's the only overtly political content we've gotten--'#MEDIA DOES NOT HAVE TO BE INHERENTLY POLITICAL IN ORDER TO BE VALUABLE#star wars has always been about hope and love and family with a side helping of revolution#but some of y'all are acting like it was always the main course#the biggest problem being that i actually LIKE andor#but good and important do not mean perfect#they aren't exactly doing great with their female characters#most notably dedra in the finale#'i should be saying thank you'????#girl should be hitting him over the head with the nearest heavy object and getting back to her base#i feel like there's a lot of trivialization of fantasy of a genre and escapism in general woven into this as well#don't make me quote jirt at you#every time i see one of those posts i'm like#have you maybe considered that you don't like star wars all that much actually#you just like what a specific part of the fandom has chosen to interpret from it#and they aren't necessarily wrong#they're just focusing on a relatively small selection of the story and themes#anyway i'm ready to throw hands#tumblr better not ruin this show for me

The thing is, when you take Rebels and Ahsoka together there is a very clear pattern of Thrawn making perfectly sound military decisions only to have Weird Force Bullshit smash into it, so after getting warped to another galaxy by Space Snow White and his whale friends he decides enough is enough and teams up with the Weirdest Force Bullshit he can find. Like, these women can bring back the dead and have ominous coffins and pull swords out of nowhere. Even Ezra, previous conveyor of Weird Force Bullshit, seems to avoid them. So of course Thrawn thinks he’s finally won the Weird Force Bullshit arms race.
The thing he doesn’t realize is that Weird Force Bullshit is a spectrum, not a ranking system. He hasn’t even gotten to the teleporting fairy wolves or the dead owl goddess or the flashback dimension or whatever Luke is digging up on his Jedi archeology missions. Sorry Thrawn, it’s the GFFA, no one is safe from Weird Force Bullshit.

My latest newsletter is about Hollywood constantly going back to the same heroes (Luke Skywalker, Captain Kirk) instead of expanding their universes. To get more perspective, I talked to the wonderful @okbjgm about creating new heroes in old universes.

Sometimes to save the world, you've got to punch a few dragons…
When the planet is being eaten by interdimensional parasites who literally tear holes in reality, what do you do? If you're Charlie Chase, you dive headfirst into an interdimensional adventure. Charlie knows her calling is a weighty one, but she trusts her mentor’s orders: Travel to another dimension, fix the tear, and get home to do it all over again.
But when she gets stuck on an alternate Earth, she has to turn to the most unexpected of allies: a younger, more eccentric, more infamous version of the brilliant mind that sent her on her mission. This version of Vera Baum is as much socialite as scientist, who seems to embrace the notion that curiosity killed the cat, in the way that means she's determined to use up all nine of her lives blasting through a kaleidoscope of genre-bending realities. Things are going to get a lot worse before they get better, especially when they’re pursued by reality-eating parasites and a biomechanical hound hellbent on killing Vera.
Ladyhoppers by Sarah Thérèse Pelletier and Scott James Taylor, a casually queer, genre-hopping, multiverse-spanning, madcap buddy comedy packed full of flaming zeppelins, coffee shop romances, car chases, dragon punching scientists, and more pirates than you can shake a multi-limbed death machine at, is available for order now!
