So I made a The Last Kingdom discord! Anyone is welcomed as long as you are respectful and civil with others. No fighting
I hate when the music and sound effects are louder than the rest of the movie. I feel like I have to keep turning the volume up and down.
It is so vital to know that Obi Wan gave them the lightsabers and he continues to think it was his best decision.
Fox: *Hugs Thorn from behind*
Fox: *Tucks Thorn's hair behind his ear*
Fox, whispering: Eat all the frosted animal crackers again and they'll never find your body.
Guard shenanigans.
First attempt at a colored comic.
Hey have we considered that the reason that one guy in the Prequels was really chill about offering some Jedi death sticks isn't some massive conspiracy that the Jedi are all doing massive amounts of drugs, or even that he didn't realize they were Jedi, but instead that arresting people for non-violent drug offenses is fucking evil and the Jedi aren't cops? And the people of Coruscant generally know that as long as they're not killing people the Jedi aren't actually interested in fucking them over?
In The Clone Wars season 2 episode 22 "Lethal Trackdown"-- written by George Lucas, Dave Filoni, and Drew Z. Greensburg -- we clearly see Jedi Master Plo Koon and Padawan Ahsoka Tano use the Force to evade paying the public transit fare on Coruscant -- after checking to make sure that the transit droid isn't going to catch them. There's no plot reason for them to skip the fare, they just do it out of seemingly habit.
The Jedi do not give a fuck about non-violent crimes against the state -- they are actively committing those crimes themselves.
Deathstick dealers get mind-trick-rehab as a harm reduction tool.
Rewatching Desolation of Smaug and had almost forgotten about Thorin being absolutely unhinged and bullying Smaug into firing up their forge WITHOUT WARNING HIS COMPANY
I’ll never quite get over just how integrated kids are into daily Jedi life and the implications of that.
Dooku’s Temple "job" for years seems to have been “teaching lightsaber preschool.” Sifo-Dyas, the guy with the scary doom visions? Oh yeah, they have him working with infants, bringing babies to the Temple as a Seeker. Jocasta Nu is constantly depicted interacting with the younger generation of Jedi, teaching, helping, or mentoring. In TCW, she knows all the Padawans on sight.
There’s just something really ordinary and charming to me about this. Sure, Dooku is a terrifying 2m of spider limbs in a robe, but he’s still going down on one sinister knee to check out the little crying kid who got a finger crunched by one of those wooden training swords. How many of the TCW-era Jedi were once babies who played with Sifo-Dyas’s hair loopies or cuddled on his chest as he pointed his T-6 back toward the Temple after another successful Seeking mission? (Space is, after all, cold. 🥺) You just know Jocasta is in very reluctant possession of knowledge of every single teen Padawan drama, crush, or breakup. She tries to stay out of it, but she’s broken up fights and pulled particulars into her office for tea and a gentle lecture on the inherent self-destructiveness of gossip.
And these are not “just some” Jedi - they are all combat trained, politically important, at the top of their rank and even each sit on the Council at some point in their lives. The Jedi Order really went “super powerful space wizards with laser swords, yeah, but they should also all definitely know how to change a diaper."
First day of Master Dooku’s lightsaber class, probably:
Listen LISTEN I don’t WANT to be the guy who keeps laughing at their own jokes even though I absolutely am but I just re-read this bit on Snark Wars from this entry and I’m dying:
Just…
Anakin, Wearing the Exact Same Fucking Thing He Wears Every Day: Hi Master Obi-Wan, Eyes Narrowing: YOU SLEPT WITH PADME LAST NIGHT DIDN’T YOU
Affection™
How cute!!!
Aww...I need him to cuddle me so adorably!
And then do me dirty in every position my body is capable of.
Fox: Why are you doing that?
Vos: Doing what?
Fox: Treating me like a person
obi-wan: you let me oversleep?
cody: i didn’t want to wake you. you needed that.
obi-wan: cody, i had meetings scheduled!
cody: and i took notes.
obi-wan, sighing: …you’re too good to me.
cody: someone has to be.
Fuck the "Palpatine torturing Fox with force lightning" shit
I need more "Palpatine begging Fox to stop beating up and killing civilians in front of the fucking cameras and to please only do that where the media will not be able to find proof of that"
thank you very much
