Let me get this straight…
They decided to make a movie taking into account feedback and complaints that certain fans had about the first two films in the trilogy. That resulted in a fan service and nostalgia filled mess that made little cohesive sense and has been slammed by critics and fans and is now the worst reviewed Star Wars movie.
They had a stellar cast, in particular Academy Award Nominee Adam Driver, one of the best actors of this generation.
He played Kylo Ren/Ben Solo, arguably the best and most popular character of the ST.
They gave him no dialogue in the second half and completely underused this immensely talented actor yet he still gave it his all and stole the movie.
They killed off his character in the most tragic, unsatisfying way.
Now, a month after the movie was released, this character they killed unceremoniously is all anyone can talk about. The one thing everyone can agree on is that Ben Solo and Adam’s portrayal of him was the highlight of the film and the ST.
#BenSoloChallenge was trending.
In memory of this character over $80k has been raised for Adam’s non profit organisation, Arts in the Armed Forces.
Reylo has skyrocketed in popularity and the fandom has created so much new content.
The Rise of Kylo Ren #1 was one of the best selling comics of 2019, even though it was only released on December 18, two weeks before the end of the year.
Adam Driver has been nominated for an Academy Award for the second year in a row.
No one is talking about the trio, Palpatine’s return, Rey Skywalker or any of the nostalgic fan service. It’s all about Ben Solo.
They in no way did this character’s journey justice. They threw him under the bus for their own selfish reasons even though it didn’t make sense for the narrative. They tried to throw him into a pit never to be seen again but the jokes on them because now Ben Solo is more alive than ever!
I hope Disney realises they made a huge mistake in killing off this character and prioritising their childhood nostalgia over a well written story.
This makes me so happy idk why
Me, looking at all the new Reddie fanart:
I love how confident he's getting
Ranboo posted on Instagram!
“she had wild clothes, frosted hair, and a red corvette with california plates bearing the legend JUDY P. her voice was loud and rose frequently to a screech, which rang though the house like the cries of some terrifying tropical bird.”
realizes that henry and the macaulays are assholes 90% of the time
when camilla said something rude to her she threw her drink in her face because it was “that kind of night and “just seemed like the thing to do, you know?”
the only one of the classics group who she doesn’t seem to hate is francis which is such a valid fucking opinion
she’s a costume design major and gives richard some random suit from the costume shop to wear to lunch with bunny
did cocaine with richard in a burger king parking lot
altered her university issued desk area into a totally decked out vanity complete with a glass top and a satin skirt
“all it does here is fucking snow.”
“judy (judy! god bless her!)”
“richard,” judy would say, reaching across the table to squeeze my hand, “you must eat”
“actually, i was often glad of their company. despite her faults, judy was a kindly soul, and she was so bossy and talkative that i felt oddly safe with her.”
she actually cares so much about richard even though he treats her like shit most of the time
while watching a movie she managed to paint her fingernails, smoke a cigarette, and drink a diet coke all at the same time
lets richard take her car to take charles to the ER
became a certified aerobics instructor and appears regularly on an exercise program called “power moves!”
moral of the story is if richard would’ve just been friends with judy and co. then maybe his whole life wouldn’t have gone to shit
He doesn't speak broke
JD, watch out. Veronica’s behind you. Oh my god he has airpods in. He can’t hear us. Oh my god.
MLB, i love you so much
Sincerely your best and most dearest friend, Me
