@dubs_thoughts He looks like a 36-year old looked in the 60s. Or a 28-year old from the 1800s

Unless the fuckin’ sweater smoked it, that’s a pretty fuckin’ regular-ass 44 y/o??

@plainrunner2 If you don’t think people can change this much in 30 years, you’ve never met a Boomer

Luke Skywalker becoming a fearful, forgetful, resentful man was not character growth. It was imposed change. A sophomoric stumble of artistic arrogance if ever there was one. Yes, the challenges of mid to later life are different from those of youth, but the qualities that reveal themselves as heroic at one stage will persevere to the other stages, even amidst pain or loss or uncertainty. Luke crossed the threshold. The growth comes from where he goes in that larger world. While this can include a type of deconstruction or reevaluation of youthful ideals, for the hero, this process is always to strengthen the foundation and advance in a wiser, more committed direction of service. The hero may retire as strength wanes and other heroes take up his mantle, captured by his vision, led by his example. He does not give up. He does not wallow. He does not feel sorry for himself. Those are the traits of a coward. Those are the traits of the selfish, the bitter, the shamed. That was never Luke Skywalker.

@Peter_Bukowski I’ll bet this would look amazing if you could see anything in it. The “light an entire movie with one candle” is still going strong I see

Holy shit

@BeSaintly The way weed smokers make weed their entire personality is the number one reason I don’t smoke weed.

This is a 44 year old man btw. Don’t smoke weed.

@AlexMakesSense @retneysholocron Google the word “chiasmus.” It’s an ancient literary device used in epic works where ideas or plot points or events are mirrored intentionally to create balance and tie a larger work together. That’s intentional.

@HRWaltermeyer @retneysholocron The sequel trilogy was a series of cliches. What are you talking about? Force awakens was a straight up remake of ANH. And TLJ was obviously trying to recreate the battle of Hoth.

By projecting his essence to Crait instead of going there physically and thus not harming Kylo Ren, Luke utilized Yoda's teachings: "A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack." This is Jedi Master Luke Skywalker at the peak of his powers.

@shikamaru317 @jondelarroz ROTS is the only good prequel and even that one is a slog.

@jondelarroz Never trust anyone who ranks the sequel trilogy higher than the prequel trilogy. Not a one of the ST movies is better than any of the PT movies.

IGN couldn't be more of a joke with this list. Also, there are only 6 Star Wars movies.

@MarkLazerus @UpdatingOnRome There’s a subset of SW fandom that can’t process anything that’s not 100% pew pew/laser swords/explosions. They approach these movies with the same intellectual energy as they would a Fast and Furious movie. I’m convinced they actually kind of hate all of them, too much thinky

@UpdatingOnRome I'm learning today that there are Andor haters out there, and I'm genuinely surprised by this. It's a miracle of a television show.

Star Wars, correctly ranked:

@AlexMakesSense @retneysholocron Yes, and that was the right choice for THAT MOVIE. Every movie in the saga was an exercise in breaking the rule of “a jedi never attacks.” 8 movies in, it’s a cliche. So doing something other than “yet another lightsaber duel” for once is really fucking cool

@HRWaltermeyer @retneysholocron Huh it’s almost like characters not adhering to advice and creating conflict MADE A GREAT MOVIE

@mattforney I live in a suburb but I also happen to live a 10 minute walk from a nice grocery store. Which means I fucking drive there because I’m not fucking dragging bottles of liquor and ice cream and shit with my dumb little cart like some kind of bag lady. I’ll take a walk in the park

How exactly does being able to walk to a grocery store help me, asshole? I can't carry eight bags of groceries on a mile-long walk.

@AlexMakesSense @retneysholocron It’s literally a line from the original trilogy. Luke running to save his friends was because he was undisciplined and untrained and Yoda and Obi-Wan were deeply disappointed that he went down that path

@retneysholocron the “Jedi never use their powers for attack” shtick is the DUMBEST Disney add on to the SW universe. Luke ran to fight Vader to save his friends, yoda walked into the imperial palace to take on palpatine after order 66. These were the most exciting moments of the franchise

@ChrisMijares7 @celinedionysus_ Everyone wanted to sound like these guys from ‘68 on. The Band was who the Beatles were trying to channel on Get Back/Let It Be

it's actually so funny how in 1967 everything was rainbows and psychedelia and then in '68-69 every band in the world goes sepia toned and puts out an album called like, 'jim barley & sons derbyshire music co.'

@celinedionysus_ It’s kind of sad. The crazy psychsdelia only actually lasted about a year but the drab sepia toned down home country thing dug its heels in for a good 6-8 years. It took funk and disco to shake it loose (to a lesser degree glam).

@BOltmanns5 @itmightbekd Yeah and I’m sure you never bitched about it then you dumb fucking hypocrite

@HRWaltermeyer @itmightbekd It was a record high under Biden so stfu

4.19 FOR GAS AND WE GOT YOU FUCKS CRYING ABOUT A FUCKING FLAG. GO FIND A BRIDGE

@skybridgerstan They really really need you to know that they hate it

You really can't say anything positive about the last jedi without people coming in your comments being like 'I hated that movie so how dare you don't hate it too'. And all I have to say to this is you gotta grow up

@BullandBaird Putting Lost above it should be “straight to jail” level of crime

Band of Brothers at 44 is a crime.

@Schneider_CM Yes, put them back in the AL central please. They’d probably have 8 World Series titles by now if they were still there

Can we get the Supreme Court to gerrymander the Brewers out of the NL Central

@BigRonInJersey Man that is a helluva sight.

These 80s powder blue unis might be the best in sports history.

@MistedTwister @itmightbekd That joke’s older than your underage gf

@itmightbekd I bet you wear a mask when you’re in your car by yourself

@Derrick85963796 @itmightbekd LOL fucking loser. You pricks are all the same, can’t make an argument to save your life so resort to “you’re gay”

@HRWaltermeyer @itmightbekd We know you’re gay

@kit5110 @YngviCom Queen doesn’t suck but they have like 8 good songs. They are very good songs though

@YngviCom Logged on to Twitter only to see people try and say queen sucks. I think we need another mass extinction event.

in the mid 2010s there was a conspiracy to try and convince people that bohemian rhapsody was the greatest song ever made
