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.
The Kaonashi No-Face Piggy Bank is a money box that automatically takes your coins and saves them for a later date. Place a coin in Kaonashi’s red bowl and then the spirit will “swallow” the money as music plays from the movie (and he even finishes it with a burp). A must-have for Ghibli fans, now available at BuyAesthetic!
I threw his rock out the window and he waited for it to come flying back in for a solid ten minutes. #balancingskillsonpoint #itsnotcomingbackinside #dontchewrockskids
