Tom Kobayashi, pictured here at the Manzanar Internment Camp in 1943, went on to become a respected sound engineer who ran George Lucas’s postproduction facility Skywalker Sound. After Manzanar, Kobayashi went on to serve in the US Army from 1946 to 1951, and later graduated from USC in 1953 with a business degree. His Hollywood career began inauspiciously as an accounting clerk at a film lab.
After over 20 years of running audio postproduction at Glen Glenn Sound, George Lucas recruited Kobayashi to his new Skywalker Sound division under Lucasfilm in 1985. Kobayashi finished constructing a 700,000-square-foot postproduction facility north of San Francisco equipped with top-notch technology developed by Droidworks (another Lucasfilm division), which was an R&D arm that would jumpstart Pixar.
Kobayashi passed away in 2020 but left behind a legacy of postproduction innovation that changed the sound and film landscapes.

Everyday I thank David Collins and the sound team at Lucasarts for the way they designed the Sith Stalker armour breathing. Like yeah, Vader’s is classic, 10/10 hot as fuck, dick throbbin and everything when you hear his respirator in your ear. BUT, there’s just something so #juicy about Darth Starkiller’s. It’s so metallic and wet and digital, clearly built from more modern technology but it still sounds equally as painful to breath. Whoever said “put some tremolo and a fuckin uhhhh bit crusher on that thing” it’s horrifying and so good

It’s been said before but the way people treat Luke has got to be one of the worst cases of infantilisation in media ever,, sometimes it feels like people aren’t even watching the same movies because how do you watch return of the Jedi and think “yeah what a stupid twink” bro straight up chopped off DARTH VADERS hand despite having crash course training in something Vaders been doing for the past like 30yrs.. if I were Vader I’d be so embarrassed. ALSO I’m so sick of people being like “Leia is so much smarter than him she was a senator and he was playing with toy ships” buddy idk how to say this but they had VASTLY different education levels, Leias’ parents were part of the rebellion and worked in politics where she was actively encouraged. Luke grew up in hutt space where his aunt and uncle were focused on making sure he didn’t turn out like his father or get himself killed. He’s also extremely skilled and crafty?? It’s always given me a weird feeling that people think that just because he doesn’t have a formal education that he’s dumb or something.
Anyways I <3 Luke, I think he’s one of the best Jedi characters ever

I think it’s so funny that Leia has developed a reputation in the fandom for yelling at Han, but also Luke. She’s become the ‘sassy bossy one’ while the boys are her victims.
However, we never see Leia yell at Luke. Not once in the original trilogy.
However, we do see them both yell at Han within the first 5 seconds of the them meeting in ANH.

Anakin gives off the vibe of someone just fucked up enough to eat you out on your period. Especially when he lets the whole sith thing finally take over because "You need him" and he "Just wants to make you feel better."
This is the face of a man that gives zero fucks about getting his face bloody if it means he gets to feel your thighs around his head while you beg him for more.
Tumblr media
There are very few guys I could imagine doing this, but even pre-sith Ani would give you period head.
If you try to tell him he'd find it gross, the little freak would just laugh and say "I think I'll be the judge of that."
I have this vivid image of him pulling away just enough to grin up at you all bloody, then leave a sticky red kiss on your thigh before diving back in.
He'd get off on it too. He gets off on eating you out anyways, but something about your embarrassment and/or getting to sooth that feeling does crazy things to him.

Congratulations to Lucasfilm's David Collins: '20 years of distinguished service'
Congratulations to David Collins for 20 stellar years at Lucasfilm.
There’s never a bad time to acknowledge impressive achievements and milestones in people’s careers, but it’s especially sweet when that person is such a gem. Huge congratulations to David Collins, a man whose list of accomplishments in the realms of both fandom and Lucasfilm are too long to list but easily summarised by an unlikely quote: “Impressive…most…
