Christopher Plummer once portrayed Sherlock Holmes, one of the main inspirations for Thrawn. Coincidence? I think not…
If I had a nickel for every time I fell in love with a fictionalized version of a high ranking naval officer, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice and also that they look so similar

“Hm, fascinating. Try doing it with a metal hip.”

I cannot get over Only God Was Above Us. Album of the year easily. Phenomenal start to finish, all killer no filler, turned me into a VW fan.
“We’re all the sons and daughters of vampires who drank the old world’s necks.”
Wanted to attach a song but I can’t. It’s too hard to choose. Listen to all of them.
“I’m learning to lie. I’m learning to be insincere.”
Becoming the Fly
This video was inspired by Kelly Eddington's words in her article:
"In my mind, late 80s Bono was a mysterious figure. He was nowhere near as accessible as he is today, and he came across as intelligent and even brooding when discussing the band’s rise to fame. He didn’t seem to belong to that decade. His long hair wasn’t teased and sprayed (well, not anymore). He didn’t sing about rock ‘n’ roll debauchery. He possessed an above-it-all purity and even dressed like a Depression-era preacher. Then he and his band disappeared for a while.
They surfaced briefly in 1990 with “Night And Day,” a gorgeous Cole Porter cover I loved immediately. It left me wanting more and made me curious. U2 seemed to be on a new sonic path with Bono’s sensual/tortured performance and that doom and gloom synth. The shadowy video seemed to be a message transmitted from the center of the band’s own dark chrysalis.
And one year later, a black butterfly emerged".

Girl what do you MEAN?
Alec guiness’s hatred of star wars makes so much sense when you remember lawrence of arabia because imagine you make one of the greatest films of all times. No one even cares you were in brownface for it. Then years later youre taken back to the desert. But now youre in a bath robe saying things like “darth vader” and “lightsaber” hanging out with some kind of gay robot. He probably thought his career was over lmfaoooo
