Dan Stevens as Thomas Richardson in Apostle

in case anyone wants to send a ~strongly worded letter~ to lucas films

This man makes me really uncomfortable with his weird obsession with Daisy Ridley and her character….this picture is quite much telling.

• In a recent interview JJ admitted he cannot separate Daisy Ridley from Rey, like can’t make any difference between the two of them.

• He took away Ben Solo’s legacy arc and gave it to Rey. He separated these characters who were set up as destinied lovers, and destroyed their romance plot

• He’s obsessed with the OT nostalgia shit. He destroyed and completely rewrote Rey’s characterization to make her OT Luke 2.0 self insert for the degenerate fanbros, to fulfill these men’s fantasy of Rey..

I don’t know, what to say…but there’s something wrong with this guy for sure

LOVE/HATE??!!?! ATTRACTION??!?? DAISY I CAN’T-

Lol of course Christians should be loving but should we be yelled at for simply having a set of beliefs? Ya’ll attack and belittle almost no other religious group— it’s highly hypocritical. If ya’ll want “acceptance” why don’t you extend it— even to those who you disagree with?

Meet the faces of the “I’m Sorry” campaign, a group of Christians who go to Chicago’s pride celebrations every year to apologize for their past hateful actions against LGBT people. The group started in 2010 and has since moved to other cities across the world. This is what love looks like. (via the Advocate)

A good reminder of why we keep getting Reylo Fighting scenes:

Every single TV spot/trailer being shown literally doesn’t say a thing about where any of the characters are ending up in the film. We have nothing on Poe, Finn, Rose, Rey, Ben, Leia, etc. because it’s what we call a spoiler.

So it’s a good thing we’re getting Reylo fighting, because it means it’s not a big spoiler.

It means we’re not gonna sit in the theater and go, “wow so the movie ended with Rey and Ben fighting! Totally didn’t see that coming.”

It means we’re blatantly being told this is not something worth hiding from the public before the movie premieres.

The character development for every single character in tros will not be revealed in TV spots or trailers. Reylo on opposite sides isn’t worth hiding.

Reylo together is.

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.)
