Empty Pages Dream Every Day Hoping to Be Filled

Why hello! I didn't see you there. Welcome to my blog, my name is Zach and please enjoy your stay. I am a die-hard Batman fan with a major love of DC comics and you'll find a random assortment of nerdy things here.

Pets are the best!

Guys! Watch the Great Wall for:

Explicit subversion of the white saviour trope everyone was afraid of (tricks you into thinking they won’t at first, keep watching)

Really gorgeous visuals courtesy of Zhang Yimou

Female soldiers (!!!) at the forefront of battle and being the face of the army

“(Soldier, in Mandarin) [snickers] Can they even pull him up? Men are too heavy.” “(Matt Damon) what did she say” “(General Lin) [bland smile] She said, ‘men have so much to teach us’.” “(Matt Damon) …i don’t think that’s what she said”

A Good and Pure Young Soldier on the Wall who is Trying His Best

Matt Damon awkwardly trying to mimic the bows to be polite, failing miserably every single time

Interesting contrast and development of Matt Damon and General Lin as two similar, but different types of warriors-from-childhood (mercenary and soldier)

Surprisingly funny banter

Everybody speaking the languages they should be speaking at appropriate moments

Dumb action-movie blockbuster fun (seriously don’t go in there expecting a narrative masterpiece but enjoy the ride)

Actual Hero is not Matt Damon, but General Lin, this lady, and I would frankly die for her:

Like seriously, I’m so glad that I decided to give it a chance after seeing Zhang was directing it. It’s not a perfect movie but it’s huge fun, and probably the first time I’ve seen the white saviour trope just subverted completely. If nothing else, watch it for General Lin, played by Jian Tian…who’s also going to be in Pacific Rim: Uprising.

YES! I was going to go see this today but then my car died. Maybe I can catch it on the cheapskate Tuesday.

Remember when Tim tried to make a funny?

[drowning-moonlight]

This implies that Ra’s thinks Dick is funny

[iconuk01]

Well, not necessarily, Dick being better at it doesn’t mean Ra’s thinks he’s any good at it either, just that he’s better than Tim.

Han is all “there’s to much Vader in him,” without mentioning that there is too much Vader in Leia too. 

Like, Bail Organa, bless his poor poor soul, tried to politician the Vader out of her. He tried SO FUCKING HARD. 

But the fact that she abandoned politics to be a General in the Resistance says a lot about her similarities to Anakin Skywalker. 

[persian-slipper]

See, people get it wrong. They assume because Luke got the blond hair and the lightsaber that he is Anakin’s child. He’s not. He’s Padme’s.

Leia, though. Leia is very much Anakin’s child. She is the one with the deep anger in her. She is the one who will bring peace to her new empire freedom and justice back to the galaxy whether the galaxy wants it or not. She is the one who commands armies and amasses followers as easy as breathing. She joined the Rebellion while she was in her teens. She is the one with the spirit of a warrior.

Don’t get me wrong; Bail Organa did his damnedest to raise her in the mold of her mother, fighting her battles in the halls of power with words as her weapons. And she was very good at it. But unlike Padme, Leia’s words always had an edge to them, her tone and meaning always a little too sharp, a little too angry. 

Peace and mercy are the trademarks of Luke and Padme. Justice and order, obtained by whatever means necessary, are the marks of Leia and Anakin.

#you just know if she had a lightsaber on the death star she would have pulled a tusken massacre on the bridge #tarkin vader the techs everyone #dead as soon as she could reach them

[cumaeansibyl]

How the throne room scene actually should’ve gone:

“If you will not turn to the Dark Side, perhaps she will.”

“Pffffthahahahaha yeah, okay Dad, let me know how that turns out. Look, the reason I’m here instead of her is because I want you alive and not a cloud of vaporized plastic. You know she strangled Jabba the Hutt with the chain he put around her neck, right? That’s what she does to people who try to control her. Better tell your Emperor you’re not allowed to have any more ideas.”

#this is so true it’s beautiful#I bet Vader almost felt glad every time Luke turned up with the lightsaber when they faced off#Vader was like ‘Oh thank the Force it’s the nice one that got the lightsaber skills’
