See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

TLJ wasn’t the Star Wars we wanted but it was the Star Wars we needed.

Like Luke’s write-off pissed off a lot of fans but I wouldn’t call his behavior ooc I mean he’s still the massive gay drama queen as always.

But on a serious note the movie wonderfully delivers some very heavy and hard-to-swallow lessons (just like Rogue One did).

Heroes fail. Leaders fall. The ways of the Jedi were flawed. Everyone has their weaknesses. People become old and bitter and broken. Not everything has to mean something, sometimes your heroes are nobodies, abandoned on backwater planets by alcoholic parents. The movie rips your favorite characters from you and burns your hopes and beliefs to the ground. Luke and Yoda burn them to the ground. It’s real. It’s upsetting. But it’s real.

This movie scorched the proverbial garden so that greener plants may grow. So that new heroes may rise from the ashes of the ones that came before them. Stronger, better, wiser.

Anonymous asked:

why does mark hamill look so different from a new hope to the empire strikes back? he looks like hes a lot older or something, even though the movies are only 3 years apart...

I actually have an explanation for that! In January of 1977, Mark Hamill got into a pretty bad car accident. It wasn’t widely publicized because it was after they filmed A New Hope but before it came out, so no one knew who he was. He messed up his nose and cheek pretty badly, to the point where he had to have cartilage taken from his ear to reconstruct parts of his nose and cheek. It’s also rumored to be why Lucas wrote in Luke getting mauled by a wampa in the beginning of Empire Strikes Back, to make an excuse as to why he looked different.
