#probably on the same level as hayden's anakin does tbh

Just started TLJ for fun because it was a Long Day and I wanted some form of distraction that didn't involve the current Ghost Crew kinda high stakes episode I was halfway through and I must say..... this is so strange to me

#the brief scenes with paige just gutted me #you know that post about the unnamed servant in king lear (i THINK it's king lear at least) that has that cs lewis quote #that's paige. like. that's literally her that's her role in the story that's what she chooses to do and that's why #poe's Personally Sanctioned mission to destroy the dreadnought or whatever it's called succeeds. it's because of her #not gonna lie i wish we saw more of her!!!!! #anyhow there are a lot of things that were little gems. like our intro to rose is her sitting alone in an empty space sobbing #because she lost her sister as she's clutching the matching necklace. that was a really good bit #and finn being like. WHERE'S REY. HOW CAN SHE GET TO US IN THIS CHAOS. #and the sheer intensity of rage from kylo ren #unlike many of my fellow tumblr girlies (please don't burn me at the stake for this) i don't find adam driver very attractive and am a bit #puzzled as to what makes people like him So Much (mentally i'm like ???? which is my reaction to timothee chalamet enthusiasm too) #but i can give him one thing. he's absolutely terrifying. the intensity and sheer out of control FORCE of his anger terrifies ME #probably on the same level as hayden's anakin does tbh #i jumped a little when he punched the elevator wall. that man has got Deep Seated Issues that he REALLY needs to work out at this point #there are also bits of this movie that REALLY confuzzle me #like leia's force hovering through space (????) and poe's anger/control/defiance (??????????) #and also LUKE GIVING UP????? i was like. well the video essay peeps on youtube were right about THIS bit being #the Worst Part Thus Far. a luke skywalker abandoning hope is a luke skywalker i'm struggling to recognize #anyhow more thoughts incoming...... class has started and media analysis brain is on #is it EVER OFF THOUGH LOL #tlj liveblog
