one thing I noticed about civil war was this cut where they were all suddenly dressed in their suits so i can only assume
….good point
People don’t talk enough about how Padme made the exact same “mistake” her own son would make almost thirty years later.
Everyone remembers that time Luke was training/hiding on Dagobah, but the moment he sensed his friends were in danger he raced to help them, and risked all that they fought for.
“If you choose the quick and easy path…you will become an agent of evil.”
Padme was supposed to be in hiding while trying to prevent a war from starting. She was supposed to be lying low, but as soon as her friend Obi-Wan Kenobi was in danger, she raced off to help him and got captured. The Jedi were forced to intervene violently in order to stop the execution and rescue her little gang, and thus Padme (by no real fault of her own, save the ease with which a certain Chancellor could manipulate her) inadvertently started the Clone Wars.
Like Mother, like Son.
Flashback. Actor Chris Evans for Flaunt Magazine.
Rule 1. Always reblog Chris’ softcore porn phase.
The thing about this photoset is that Evans is a passive subject for the camera.
Most photos of a beefy blonde male have him staring aggressively. You know the type I mean – stance wide and shoulders spread, eyes lit with challenge, as if he’s about to punch or fuck the camera man. This set is the exact opposite. Evans glances away from the camera like a Victoria’s Secret model, or else peeks from behind a shirt like he’s asking for approval. The photos where he’s on his knees have his spine curved to show off his slender waist, elbows in to show submission. Heck, in one picture the curve of his torso mirrors the curve of the lady on the poster in the background.
Some photographer, when deciding to work with Evans, decided to shoot him in a way that women are often portrayed, instead of the traditional machismo alpha male bullshit. Thank you, photographer. Tumblr is grateful.
Oh wow someone added smart meta to this photoshoot. That means I can constantly reblog it without shame.
One of my favorite scenes in The Force Awakens:
Han: Is there a garbage chute? Trash compactor?
Finn: Yeah, there is!And not just because it’s a brilliant throwback to the original trilogy. I actually find the other two layers to this joke even better payoff than the throwback. In-universe Finn answers so gleefully not as a punchline, but as characterization. He’s intimately familiar with this answer and he’s about to exact revenge on Phasma, this high level controlling force in his life, by subjecting her to the very thing he’s had to live with, the thing Han and we as the audience found out about not too long before this scene: his job in sanitation.
