Me too comrade

Deen, you were born to a mother as gentle as she is fierce. I pray that you live in a world shaped by that kindness. I hope, with all my heart, that you will not witness the oppression that I’ve known. I hope that you never need to chant for Palestine, because it has long been free with dignity and prosperity for all. Should that day come, know that it was ushered in through the courage of those who came before you. I am certain that in this new world, you and I will visit Tiberias together, drink from the river and marvel at the sea. There, in a free and just Palestine, you will see the fruits of our struggle.

The moustache on the squad leader was certainly something to behold

For those who don’t know TLOU Part 2 was explicitly written to be Israeli propaganda.

This was such an interesting piece of info. It makes total sense, but since I never played the games, I wasn’t even aware, and I do really like watching Bella Ramsey, so I was thinking this would be acceptable stuff. But hey, Israelis are prominent throughout the gaming industry, so I really shouldn’t have been surprised. Thanks for sharing, I’ll be sure to look out for how the show does it.

I was waiting for that the entire time and was glad when it didn’t happen. But let’s be real, Disney’s gonna try and milk this for all it’s worth, so we’re probably getting to see Cassian Andor Jr. in his own show very soon, playing long after the Empire has fallen, and then trying to retrace his father’s steps OR he’s gonna be a cameo in the 3rd season of Ahsoka, like a playmate for Hera’s son. And Bix then probably gets mainstreamed too.

I remember reading through a lot of interviews at the time and people on the set were literally saying that as soon as Disney brought additional writers in, it all came together. I think it wasn’t just Gilroy, but hiring him (&others) seems to have made the final act of Rogue One as good as it was.

When I watch it these days I’ll be patient until we meet Saw Gerrera, then get angry at how they butcher the character, and then enjoy the rest of the movie.

Unfortunately, it’d be a major doxx, so no

I wrote a fucking paper on the first season of Andor and I can confidently say I do not regret doing that. I opened the paper with Nemik’s manifesto, and I have probably listened to this one monolog so many times I could repeat it by heart. And then these last three episodes hit, and I’m glued to the screen, keeping it together, and they just play it again, and I’m a crying mess. God, academic writing will never again be this much fun, but also, Star Wars will never again be this much fun.

Because he’s a Sovereign lol. Kidding aside, tho, I’m not sure if I remember correctly but Spaw was pretty cruel about a few things too. It’s been a while since I played the game.

Don’t help Glut. Yes, yes, Sovereign Spaw not good either, but srsly, Glut just wants to kill everyone he doesn’t like / who disagrees with him on anything.

I think we could rewrite this list a couple of times and it would always feel right.

Only one modification: 5. Germany

Oh hell yeah, a meaningless death is absolutely fitting for him, don’t get me wrong. I just wish we could’ve seen him realizing how he fucked up everything. Idk, just a few more moments of utter confusion, and then have a stray blaster bolt hit him instead of it being an execution.

Absolutely agreed lmao he earned his death fair and square. I think I barked out a short laugh when I saw it.

Gotta say tho, I would’ve loved to see more of his confusion, the part Soller talks about. It would’ve been funny imo if we got to see him come to terms with the fact that nobody gives a shit about him. If anything, he got out too smoothly and too early.

Shrimp living in sin almost killed me the first time I read it

I love “Bit idea” followed by a long ass binary code. Took me way too long to check what it meant
