the FBI raided donald trump’s lawyer’s office today and seized evidence about him paying hush money to a porn star and i just sometimes need to step back and think of how the republicans would have literally exploded if a single word of that happened during the obama administration
It’s the final battle, and urged on by Finn the Stormtroopers have rebelled (because that storyline *needs* to happen) and Poe’s shepherding them to safety like the warm, caring person he actually is.
But there’s a weapon, because there’s always a weapon in SW movies, and Supreme Leader Ren is about to use it. And so Finn and Rey have to take him down together, in an actually well choreographed fight with the Knights of Ren in an actual set that doesn’t look like the staging for bad experimental opera.
By the end, Finn has Kylo Ren at his mercy. And then it happens: Kylo cries – he begs Finn to understand that he never had a choice, that he didn’t mean to turn into this monster. And Finn, who has a soft heart inside of him despite all he’s been through, is taken in by it. He turns his back on Kylo for one second.
And then Kylo strikes, because of course he does. Only Rey’s been fooled once and she won’t be fooled twice – she won’t let the man she loves pay for making the same mistake she did. She intercepts Kylo’s blow and turns it back on him and Kylo Ren is killed at last, impaled on the light saber he used to kill his own father. And so we have a fitting end to the anti-redemption arc Kylo Ren started in The Force Awakens and continued, despite all its faults, in The Last Jedi.
And the force ghosts of Leia and Luke watch and smile as Finn and Rey walk off into their happy ending together.
LMAO. This would be the most generic thing JJ could do. And it would shit all over the Skywalker/Solo bloodlines (and it would render the OT pointless as there’s no joy in seeing anything the original trio accomplished because we’ll know their bloodline ends in tragedy). BTW, in response to your reply to me about Bruce/Selina, yes, Reylo is like Bruce/Selina. The enemies to lovers trope. Saying it’s like Bruce/Joker is idiotic as The Joker has zero conflict. Remember all those intimate convos between Batman and Joker where they gaze into each other’s eyes and plead with each other to switch sides? No, you don’t. Because it never happened. Remember all those articles post TDK about what great sexual tension Batman and Joker had? No. Yet even Vanity Fair wrote an article about Reylo’s intense chemistry. In addition to Bruce/Selina, Reylo is also a lot like Vegeta/Bulma from the Dragon Ball franchise. Oh, and I never said Nolan came up with BatCat. He’s just the first one to handle it that way and give them that sort of happily ever after despite all the terrible things Selina does to him. Clearly Kylo triggers you in some way that makes you fail to understand that he’s a fictional character and not a real person who can harm you in any way. And thank God you’re not a storyteller, you actually think the best friends to lovers trope that FinnRey would represent would be good for Star Wars. Best friends to lovers is the most generic, cliche, overused trope in Hollywood history. In total, I just find people like you to be sad. You want safe, generic, conservative storytelling. And it’s like you’ve never even seen the original trilogy. The 2nd movie in the OT ends with Vader cutting off his own son’s hand, making it seem like he’ll never redeem himself. Even Obi Wan tells Luke that Vader is lost to the dark side. Yet Vader does redeem himself because that is the point of Star Wars. A point you missed because you’re clearly not a real Star Wars fan. Let me guess, you didn’t even care about Star Wars till you watched TFA a few years back. Yeah. Blocked.
PS: And thinking Luke and Leia would be happy about their bloodline ending that way…. my god, it’s like you don’t even understand the franchise on even the most basic levels. Oh, and John and Daisy themselves root for Ben’s redemption. John in particular is a huge Kylo fan. He’s even said he hopes Kylo redeems himself and that Kylo is his favorite character. He’s even constantly taking pictures of himself with Kylo merchandise he owns. According to your logic, that means John loves a nazi.
Dude, I don’t know who you think I am, but we’ve never had a conversation about anything before and definitely not Batman, a subject about which I have literally no opinions.
Also I actually am a professional story teller and have been for more than two decades.
Oh, and I’m in my late forties, btw. I fell in love with the original trilogy after I saw them in the cinema when they first came out. I daresay I’ve seen them more times than you have.
All that aside, can I just say that hijacking someone else’s post in order to be extremely rude to them, then saying ‘blocked’ as if you’re the one who’s been offended AND THEN FORGETTING TO ACTUALLY BLOCK THEM is by far the funniest thing any of the many Reylos who’ve hopped onto my posts unasked has yet done.
A++ would recommend
interracial couple: *exists*
the joker in your mentions: ”this is safe generic conservative storytelling”
Yes, precisely. Plus I forgot to mention how much I love it when goyim lecture me on who I’m allowed to call a Nazi analog.
Abrams said that he saw the FO as a neo-Nazi analog. People can deny it all they want but that doesn’t mean he didn’t say it. That also doesn’t mean that it’s a knock on Boyega (or anyone else’s) morality to like an FO character. If so, I’d be worried about all those little kids with Darth Vader helmets running around. The Terran Empire in Star Trek Discovery is a fascism/Trumpist populism analog too and Empress Georgiou is still a beloved character. People are complicated and that’s why I wrote what I did about not assigning real world political beliefs to people solely based on the characters they like.
Earlier this month,
CNN’s Brian Stelter broke the news that Sinclair Broadcast Group, owner
or operator of nearly 200 television stations in the U.S., would be
forcing its news anchors to record a promo about “the troubling trend of
irresponsible, one sided news stories plaguing our country.” The
script, which parrots Donald Trump’s oft-declarations of developments
negative to his presidency as “fake news,” brought upheaval to newsrooms
already dismayed with Sinclair’s consistent interference to bring
right-wing propaganda to local television broadcasts.
The
net result of the company’s current mandate is dozens upon dozens of
local news anchors looking like hostages in proof-of-life videos, trying
their hardest to spit out words attacking the industry they’d chosen as
a life vocation.
Not that any of it matters to Sinclair, which,
with the help of a friendly federal government, is about to swallow up
another 40 television stations — increasing its reach and its lead over
competitors like Hearst and Scripps. The script, as transcribed by ThinkProgress based on the KOMO (Seattle) version, reads:

More alarming, some media outlets publish these same fake stories…

I’m concerned this video is being shared on the internet without that added context and might even push people into being more supportive of Trump because they think it’s an attack on him from his opponents in the MSM.
No, because they barely exist outside major newspaper op-ed pages, and there are maybe two or three of them that are actually bothered by his policies. Most of them are fascists who basically agree with him on everything, they just don’t like his particular vulgarian aesthetic. I really don’t care that editors of segregationist magazines call him a cad.
What people are also forgetting is that most of the conservatives who denounced Trump in the primaries are fully on board with him now. Dana Loesch signed an open letter denouncing him in The National Review, and now she makes agitprop videos calling for violence against all who oppose him.
So no, there is nothing comforting about Erick Erickson writing articles against Trump because he’s insufficiently theocratic in between rants about David Hogg being a crisis actor, every conservative under 70 freely joined a nihilistic white supremacist death cult of their own free will, and fascists pouting about the corrupt demagogue because he didn’t go to Yale doesn’t move me at all.
hey, did y’all know in addition to this, one of the companies that make fentanyl ALSO make the drug to try and save people from ODing on it? it’s narcan but for fentanyl specifically
so, they’re making profits ON BOTH SIDES!!!
also the pharmaceutical industry and the DEA artificially created this “opiod crisis” together, so there’s that too
yes i saw that in a movie on netflix how evil is this fucking world
Drs. Gordon Freedman, Jeffrey Goldstein, Todd Schlifstein, Dialecti Voudouris and Alexandru Burducea were indicted on conspiracy and other charges that carry up to 20 years in prison.
All pleaded not guilty and were released on $200,000 bond each.
For some reason I doubt this is who Trump had in mind when he said he would execute drug dealers @jxhniarty
