when you're feeling full hater mode about a piece of media but you know one of your beloved mutuals enjoys it

i feel like we kind of knew even before WaT that the contest of champions wouldn't end up being just a traditional duel, like there was always going to be some trick or secret or psychological game to it, not just two warriors beating the crap out of each other until one of them perishes. however i can't lie i kind of want to see the straightforward beating the crap out of each other until someone perishes version. having this 8000 year long war end with just brutal one on one violence is so simple of a plot that it kind of circles back around to being subversive. like yeah, rip each other's heads off, see how good you feel about winning after that.

I'm thinking about CATFA again and I'm realising what bothers me about it:

How late in the war it's set. It's after Pearl Harbour, and after the US entered the war. Captain America debuted in the comic book world in 1940. The attack on Pearl Harbour was almost exactly a year away when the front cover showing the red, white and blue punching Hitler was first seen. Congress was isolationist, and there was a lot of isolationist thinking in the public. There wss also support for the nazis, too. The golden age comics feature film makers targeted because they want to make movies about how the US should support the Allies. It features Steve going to Europe to rescue a wealthy American industrialist who is financially backing the Allies. It features him beating the shit out of Hitler when they meet, and saying that America should be helping France.

This was a silly and very cheesy comoc but it had a message: America should be aiding the Allies.

By having Steve become Cap after Pearl Harbour we lose so much of what makes him such a symbol. He's out there in his red, white and blue uniform with his only 'weapon' being something used for defence, saying 'this is what America should be doing. This is what America should be.'

I gotta hand it to sandler that this scene is exactly what listening to that song feels like.

[ineffectualdemon]

Me: because of my abandonment issues and childhood trauma part of me wants to manipulate it so people can't ever leave me. And by "people" I mean you. And by "manipulate" I mean I gave you a singular out and since you didn't take it that means to me that I have successfully trapped you

Husband: yes, I know this

Me: I am aware enough that this is basically me using a trap you can easily escape from and going "haha! I have you trapped!" but you're just humouring me - wait. Goddamnit. This is just Doofensmirtz and Perry the Platypus

Husband: *same horrified realisation as me* oh god

anyway sound off. at what stage do ppl think Han figured out the Force was real. the boring answer is after seeing Obi-wan vanish but i think he could rationalise that away as his eyes playing tricks on him. what do we think.

[my-last-brain-cell-is-socrates]

Let me demonstrate my answer for you:

That's it. That's my answer. Endor.

Please just take a look at Han's face right after witnessing 3po float. The man just had his entire worldview blown to smithereens.

[whetstonefires]

that's so funny. that means he accepted Vader deflecting a blaster bolt with his hand as just something freaky government cyborgs can do, and stuck by Luke for multiple years as he tried to figure this Force stuff out, and just treated it like your friend getting really really into neopaganism to cope with a loss.

like yeah kid good job with the witching. i'm certain it will be more useful against your enemies than your sharpshooting. no i do not think your witchcraft is supplementing your aim but i'm not gonna argue about it.

[penny-anna]

yeah Luke was like 'I heard Ben Kenobi's voice in my head telling me how to blow up the Death Star :)' and Han was like 'kind of an unusual coping mechanism but I'm not gonna argue with him'

[davetheshady]

thanks to carbonite han not only misses learning about luke's training montage on dagobah, he's also half-blind during their whole escape on tatooine. luke's out there force-kicking henchmen with his gucci boots and doing flips and shit and han can't see a goddamn thing. now on endor luke's yeeting threepio with the power of his mind and han's just like 'the last time we hung out i had to stuff him in a tauntaun sleeping bag'.
