They are invading Rafah
They have placed tanks at the Egyptian border. No one can escape and no aid can come in. 1.4 million civilians, many of whom are children, are trapped in a tiny area.
Don’t look away. Keep protesting, donating, raising awareness, and amplifying Palestinian voices.
Free Palestine
😭😭😭
that’s it folks, that’s how the movie ends
Me reading the expanded canon like:
Han embracing his two year old son close to his chest for him to sleep because of his nightmares;
Han being pissed at their household droid for waking up Ben and making him cry;
Toddler Ben loving Lando Calrissian and calling him “unca wanwo”;
Lando presenting Ben with a blaster;
Ben never wanting to be a Jedi but a pilot like his father;
Leia sending his son away to Luke’s academy when apparently she was trained as a Jedi herself (??????????????????);
Ben trying to save his Jedi mates from the fire Palpatine caused in Luke’s Jedi temple;
Han being pissed at Leia in TFA novelization because she never told him she could sense Snoke/Palpatine surrounding their unborn son.
THE SKYWALKER-SOLOS DESERVED SO MUCH BETTER!
reblog if you’re pretending ben solo isn’t dead
I know that it’s delicate…
I wrote twitter meta about the one good thing about this film (Adam Driver’s acting, the PURE character work he did with zero dialogue) because I finally figured out what he was talking about when he said he was using “mask work” with Kylo Ren. He wasn’t playing through a mask only when he wore the helmet, he was acting as if his very FACE was a stoic blank mask he was looking through. That’s why Kylo Ren as a character has such a specific feeling to him, and why the audience instantly responded to Ben Solo, who could show his emotions.
This character was always 100% a young boy hiding behind a mask that hid and disallowed every emotion except for his anger, the only emotion that men are allowed to feel. This character is an exploration of how toxic masculinity harms men. And what miracles can happen for men internally when they embrace emotionality and forgive themselves and use their energy to do good. (I’m crying about him again.)
