#REWATCHED THE SCENE JUST NOW

[tomicaleto]

I saw a post mentioning Ahsoka was originally assigned to Obi-Wan and I’m like ??? Like, yes Obi-Wan asked for a new padawan but the first thing Ahsoka says as she arrives is that she was assigned to Anakin

Edit: if you don’t want to read the tags: I rewatched the scenes from the movies and it’s said several times she was assigned to Anakin by Yoda himself and at the end it’s implied Obi-Wan helped. She was never assigned to Obi-Wan.

showing fabian and riz's scenes back to back was brutal

very often as a kid your friend group have varying degrees of financial stability and very different family dynamics, and to see fabian, with an accessible trust fund and a huge mansion and all the opportunities he wants in the world open to him, and immediately after, showing us riz and his single mother working herself down to the bone to keep her kid and herself afloat and struggling to get him to a good college is heart wrenchingly real.

and then on the other side, fabian who has two parents finds no one to listen to him and console him after he had a very hard summer, and at the end of the night finds himself all alone in a big house because they decided, in his most formative years when he needs the most guidance, to leave him and go for a vacation for a full year or more, uncaring ofc because they are both rich immortal beings (he isn't). while we watch riz and his mother love eachother to no bounds, we watch this exhaused mom wake up at 3 am and sit by her son and listen to him, and notice all the little details about how he looks and how he changed and how he grew, looking at her little boy like not all the riches in the world compare to his little smile, knowing that fabian, with all that he has, can never have that. heart wrenching.

just saw asteroid city last night, pls explain the proposed significance of the kiss!!

answering this publicly hope thats ok! cant do a readmore im on mobile *****asteroid city spoilers below beware*****

i dont remember anyones names so this is gonna sound partly unhinged. okay so the edward norton playwright and jason schwartzman actor (not character, in the black and white parts) are lovers right. tbh i thought this was kind of a gag and forgot about it. but later we find out that the playwright died 6 months into the production. i didnt make the connection that THAT’s why the actor-jason has to suddenly leave the stage and freaks out backstage about how he’s not sure he’s Doing it right. hes not talking about acting!! because he himself is literally grieving his lover while he’s playing a character who’s grieving his wife written by his lover so obviously it’s too much!!! actor-jason is trying to find meaning in his death through his writing but there isnt any meaning in death [gerris drinkwater voice] which is what the play is trying to say anyway. he doesnt think he’s performing grief right even in his own life!!! (and tbh it’s the 50s so he wouldnt be able to perform grief publicly anyway!!!!) the play starts with a car accident… anyone would search for some hidden meaning there, some sign…. so when he talks to margot robbie outside it’s not really about finding the CHARACTER’s motivations it’s about the actor himself being able to process the playwright’s death! and adrien brody director was probably also dealing with that too (him and norton seemed to be good buddies) so the whole “sleeping backstage” thing gets a bit sadder maybe? maybe everyone else got this in the theatre and im just stupid lol but crazy making stuff to me!!! the whole story is about sublimated gay grief that cannot be expressed?!?!

the tweet that caught me onto this was here which posits that the playwright’s death was a suicide but i think that’s pretty stupid and unnecessary because the whole thing about the play asteroid city is that death is random and meaningless. im pretty sure that’s what the alien represents— a shocking and absurd event that isnt outright evil or menacing, not something anyone can predict or make sense of, it’s just a thing that happens to you out of nowhere, it doesnt mean anything. he’s a little black figure, he’s death! giving and taking! aagh

don't you just love it when a series has a good ending that takes care of all of its characters, shows how their futures will look like, ties up all loose ends, reminisces about old times, references important moments from before, and brings back elements of the very first episode, giving a nice frame to the whole series?

↳one thing i love about farscape is how it embraces its weirdness, making it a very unique show and watching experience.

Something something about Simon always making sure Wille knew that it wasn't because of him that Simon ended things. That it wasn't their relationship, that it simply was everything else

When Wille said "I thought it would be us" and Simon replied "It has been us. And when it was us, it was good" at the lake

Or how he didn't respond when Wille asked how Simon could be over him, just like that

Or when Simon told him "I never gave up on us. I gave up on the royal family" during graduation/the closing ceremony

How there was an "I still love you" in every sentence, in every word

Even when he broke up with Wille. "maybe this just won't work" wasn't about them, it was about Simon and the crown and him realizing he could never be part of that.

It was never about Wille, and Simon never let him forget that.
