Hope? Yeah. Rebellions are built on hope.
ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY (2016) dir. Gareth Edwards
Asajj Ventress has been a slave, a Jedi, a Sith, a Nightsister, a bounty hunter, a fugitive, and an airport security guard too apparently
sooooo fucked up but padme and shmi are inextricably linked in anakin’s mind as both his family, his attachments and the people he will do anything to keep in his life, the secret-most part of him he gets to have all to himself, ANDDD palpatine is in that secret chamber too. he didn’t grow up with a father so he’s got palpatine and obi-wan to choose from, and obi-wan loves him obviously but can only say it when he thinks anakin is dying, like it or not there is a level of emotional repression in the prime jedi order that anakin simply never gets from palpatine who he kneels before and trusts without question. palpatine and padme the politicians he is told not to trust, shmi the mother he was never meant to see again. mother & father & mother to his children. each an attempt at a family unit he never really got. it’s the evilest dynamic of all time and of course it ends in a bloodbath
I’m absolutely devastated that K2’s first and last words were “Hello” and “Goodbye” respectively and that both were to Cassian.
I absolutely LOVE the choice of Tales of the Underworld first episode to not explain SHIT about how Ventress died or why Quinlan was confessing his love to her. Sink or swim in the narrative, bitch, Star Wars ain't throwing you a life preserver. Phenomenal choice, zero notes, I've been hyena laughing about it all day.
