Will you look at that, the longest Stella review till date! even if the fic was 34k words, I still didnt expect this level of eloquence coming from me and i am sure i even surprised myself lol.
The review is over 1300 words long but it ofc includes lots of dialogue from the fic itself...
See? I was honest i may clip out parts of this review for other kickass fics lol because i dont think i ever phrased my internal thoughts and compliments the way I did here.
Anyways, thanks for sticking around for my mouthy reviews and shit.
I reviewed the fic Poppy by the lovely @ladyofreylo. Its a Rey/Adam Sackler fic set up in Present-day, complete with hot as hell smut 😍😍🥵🥵
P.S. Forgot to switch to my Reylo pseud like every other time I review!
No offense but I hated the movie. I know development of Anakin Skywalker and his relationship with Padme Amidala are the bigger focus in this movie I still didnt like it anymore than i should. The movie felt like a hugeass filler chapter and be honest, who the fuck even likes them? I bear them so I cant miss any details but I honestly shouldve listened to my honorary mom and skipped straight to Revenge of the Sith.
Nooo, Shmi Skywalker, nooooo!!! I cant imagine the pain and suffering Anakin went through and its giving me the feeling that this pain is the catalyst for his conversion to the dark side.
Anyways, not much to say except the war was badass! Like bam where did all these Jedi came from? I didnt know this many existed! I also met Ahsoka Tano and realized that Jedi are not always human which was epic like 'woohoo, we're a mixed race and anyone can become Jedi irrespective of breed'
Proud of Padme for using her brain and being a force to be reckoned with even without weapons and the force!
Great job Anakin, using the weird creature to your advantage and goddamn, when I saw all those lightsabers being drawn like how the hell did they all go unnoticed? Did they come with Mace Windu? were they already there? how?
Amazing job Yoda for using the clones and Kamino's ignorance to their advantage, I am pretty sure it wouldve been impossible to win the war if the clones hadnt arrived annnnd we found out how stormtroopers are made!
Also, Yoda has incredible gymnastics + lightsaber fighting skills like woo, small in size but with skills bigger than hundreds! It was sad to see the loss of the war because ofc they lost!
Ok, so Anakin and Padme got married so maybe we'll have the Skywalker twins in the next? why do I get the feeling Padme would rather protect her children than stay loyal to her husband? I hope to see why Anakin becomes evil and leaves his wife in the first place and if he kills her or something...
Hopefully I can see Revenge of the Sith today or I will surely die! I also hope its better than this movie because seriously, I would go back to the past just to NOT watch it!
P.S. sorry you lost your hand Anakin and Ben (Obi Wan lost his hand too right?) and damn, that prosthetic hand of yours already looks like an evil mofo, Anakin!

@stellardarlings (maybe you already saw this on twitter but I am posting it here too, so people can know 😉)
You have done it, you have totally, utterly, irrefutably broken me, mind body and soul in such a way I wouldnt mind being broken. This fanfic, no I shouldn't call it that, this is so much more than just a fanfic, its so much love, creativity, attentive planning and hard work....this amazing work of fiction, a wealth of creativity and ultimate author love is amazing, spectacular, phenomenal, otherworldly...If being broken by something like this is possible, I'd happily give myself over because oh, what a wonderful way to go! Amazing amazing AMAZING!!! I don't have words enough to convey my emotions but I hope my feeble attempts at complimenting this masterpiece serve to convey part of my feelings for it...Bravo!! I cant wait to read more of your legendary writing!!!!😍😍😍😍
Read it, you wont regret it but i'll give you mild warnings:
heavy angst, very slow burn, violence and character deaths (not major, we have HEA for that but its a little bittersweet...
So i didnt realize that I'd get so emotionally invested in Padme that I'd start ugly sobbing when Vader force-strangled her. I did and it felt like shit because the one person whose protection made him turn to evil, the same person he claimed to love was the one he hurt with his own hands.
Like he was so warped in evil he didnt think his wife, one who Mind you, he sorta forced into a relationship with him, manipulating her to act on her feelings, was the person whose love he believed but ended up doubting in the time when she needed him the fuckin most.
She warned him he was breaking her heart, she told him his love was all she needed but ofc he was shrouded in dark power he couldnt master in such a short time...when he threw her away, i thought she was dead!
It felt like Obi Wan was having a dilemma, wanting to save him but knowing he shouldnt. Poor thing had to decide between heart and mind!
Remember his nightmare where she kept saying 'i cant'? Well that prolly was what she was thinking while unconscious, pleading him to help but knowing it wont work. She, in a way, died in childbirth but we all know she was killed by Vader the minute he broke her heart and the reason she didnt die right there was the babies. So his nightmare, the one wanted to avoid became a fuckin reality, following nearly the entire dream sequence!
Like i said previously, Shmi's death was the catalyst for Vader's loyalty switch while the premonition about his wife finalized his decision. He became evil for the two women he loved more than anything...
It seems Padme passed down some info to her newborns...
Remember Leia saying she remembers her mother? That she was very beautiful but sad. I think this refers to when she held baby Leia who was staring at her. Leia always remembered...
And then there's Luke who even despite his nonexistent age remembered he words 'there is still good in him'. Luke subconsciously followed his mothers pleas and ofc he didnt magically know Vader was redeemable even thought he saw proof later...
And ofc Vader would hesitate to follow the order where he had to kill his son, the little part of his beloved wife that was still alive, the little part who was one of the reasons he converted in the first place, because admit it or not, he loved his wife and kids😭😭
In a funny way, it came full circle. He changed sides for the love of his wife and unborn child and he ended up killing Palpatine for his children, sacrificing his life for the good of his children and ending the reign of evil.
It was so twisted, evil yet beautiful and its why I'd call Anakin and Padme 'star crossed lovers'...
So is this path of immortality the transformation into force ghosts? And i cant see how Anakin became one when he didnt know the Jedi knew that...i cant find the connection I found between Yoda and Obi-Wan. Those two died and their bodies disappeared. Vader's body was cremated, he didnt vanish like the other two yet he became a force ghost...i really dont get this part...🙄
What i dont know is how R2 and 3PO survived everything, especially R2, he literally got out nearly unscathed! I like to think R2 was the smartest being in the series since he had no force, was slow in moving and barely had any weapons yet he knew what to do.
He helped Qui Gon, Obi Wan, Anakin and even knew how many messages he had to show Luke, not revealing anything except something that'd lead him to Obi wan. I wonder if obi-wan pretended not to know R2 since he obvs fought many battles with his assistance. Also explains how he knew to get the complete message...
I love R2! He passed down to people fighting for good like a fuckin prophecy! A true fuckin legend. Whats ironic is how 3PO was in Leia's protection, the robot her father built with his own, kid hands!
I'd say my mom and @vittra88 are 100% right. Revenge of the sith was the best movie from the prequel trilogy. The editing was fuckin badass!! And the story it portrayed was the most interesting!!
P.S. R2 is my fave chara from the original and prequel trilogy! And iI cant wait to start watching
sequel trilogy since it was the series i desperately wanted to see...*takes a deep breath* guess i gotta brace myself for a shitton of more pain and heartbreak... i am relying on you, fanfic authors, to get me through the shit i have fallen in. Reylo authors, help me escape the pain through your fics...
P.P.S JarJar's face in Padme's funeral was so fuckin gut-wrenching 😭🥺
This must be my least heartfelt review along with its size which is not much to look at so...
Watched #StarWars #PhantomMenace nothing to report except I am sad that Qui Gon died, it was sad but not enough to make me cry since the entire movie had me distracted by the adorable Anakin SkyWalker and all the shit the cute thing pulled. Love him, Ani is 😍😍*chef's kiss*
So the copying from twitter was harder than copying from tumblr so...
I fuckin hate Jabba the Hutt like how tf did the ancient movie makers make something so fictionally ugly that i wanted to throw up each time he appeared?
Bitch, you cant speak english but then you go say "Leia, my Leia" like is that all? bor-ring! And she's not yours!
And the part where Luke's message said 3-PO and R2 were gifts for Jabba and 3-PO was like 'what gifts?' and then 🤣🤣
Han not being able to see or think too much but then berating an absent Luke for his choices like 'he cant save himself!' had me in stitches like dude, you better recover first then get your witty retorts functioning lol
Luke's plan, especially when R2 threw him lightsaber was hella kickass and the action and fighting had me drooling. not to mention, the colour of his lightsaber made me wish to steal the pretty thing
Yesss, Gooo Luke, Chewie and Lando! (even though i dont like Lando much but...) *shrugs*
Yess, thank you Leia for ridding the world off the shitshow named Jabba because i was honestly tired of seeing his ugly mug
It was sad to see Yoda go like i wasnt too attached but his parting words, his wisdom and the way he vanished was...*sniffles*
I dont have too much to say about the movie since i was so damn immersed no thoughts came to my mind except, 'damn internet, work!'
But lets come to the part I have the most to say about the confrontation between Luke, Vader and Palpatine was what I have a little more to say about
First off, Luke was correct in telling Palpatine that his overconfidence was his downfall because ofc Luke knew!
And Luke, I kept getting the feeling he was right, ofc Vader couldve killed him instead of chopping his hand off. he couldve pulled him back by the force and finished him but he didnt
He let him go and pretended that Luke escaped! Fuck, i saw his dark side cracking right there and i knew it was about time he starts becoming a real father.
Didnt hurt any less to see Luke trying to reason with him and then getting nearly killed while still crying out for Vader, i think that is when he had enough and looked for opportunities.
It was so heart-shattering to hear Luke dying and begging for Anakin to do something while he was getting electrocuted (I'd call him Anakin because he had become Anakin)
And then for him to just kill Palpatine and knowing he was gonna die, wish to see his child face to face. It was shattering
And Luke, poor thing wouldnt be smug because there was nothing to be smug about, he had his father back only to have to let go.
It was so damn selfless for him to not let him go and bring him back with him for a proper cremation even though Anakin told him to leave😭
His parting words! oh fuck i wanna cry and i didnt give a flying fuck he wasnt hot as i expected because ofc he was old, but he indirectly told Luke to tell Leia he loved her and Luke.
Fuck! he mustve been feeling shit to say it so indirectly because of his deadbeat + evil father tendencies but 😭😭
It was sad to see him go, sad to see him burning and i cried even harder when his force ghost appeared with Obi-Wan and Yoda and even though i was horribly upset...
I knew those three would lead and guide Luke to his real destiny, to the freedom of the galaxy. Even though it was too late and no matter what he did in the past...
There is no doubt Anakin became a loving father in the end and I wonder if he wouldve been good if he was allowed the opportunity to know baby Luke and Leia
And i think the movie makers thought that was the end, they may not make new movies with the celebrations and fireworks in the end. They also resolved Han and Leia's relationship...
P.S. What did Vader do that killed Palpatine? electrocute him with his own magic?
P.P.S. Fuck, as if didnt find the evil, black get-up hot af, Anakin had to turn out a hot mofo in his youth! why?! I am in loooove again!!!! why you die Anakin hot mofo with hotass name?!😅
This review will be shorter and more senseless than the last since my thoughts are all over the place but whatever.
I have now finished watching #StarWars #EmpireStrikesBack but as I already knew, i have less to say about it than I had about #NewHope. Must be because when i watched the latter, I wasnt much invested because it was Luke and Leia
But now that the action and suspense has taken ahold of my heart, mind and soul, i find it hard to be sassy when all i am wondering is 'what's gonna happen now?' I would defo say that yoda isnt what i expected since i saw all those yoda pictures where...
...he was smooth, hairless, tiny cute lil alien thing but welp, i didnt expect an aged, mildly frizz-haired, not-much-cute version...I enjoyed seeing the asinine ways he trained Luke and for one moment, i thought Luke wouldnt go since Ben AND Yoda advised him but i had...
forgotten how much of a rebel he used to be. I wonder if he'll complete his training with Yoda or someone else and I have to stop and wonder when Leia would find out she's been snogging her long-lost twin? Poor Han doesnt deserve to be a notch in her kissing-post and she shouldnt
and she shouldnt be confusing Luke with her unresolved feelings even though they both dont know they're siblings, like lady, didnt you tell Han you love him? And is Ben Kenobi really dead or is he still around, having a vacation from Vadar or something?
Annnnd I cant wait to see what happens next because unlike #NewHope where they ended the movie in a not-so-cliffhanger way, #EmpireStikesBack has ended in a way we know things arent over, that there's a long way ahead...But I gotta confess, as a 2002 kid who loves tech...
The graphics, sound effects and animation has gotten a lot better and even though there's a lot of room for improvement, i cant believe this movie was made in 1980 because its done so amazingly! I am waiting with barely restrained anticipation to watch #ReturnOfTheJedi...
Tomorrow's Sunday so I may stay up late and watch it otherwise I'll watch it on Sunday morning. But I am also expecting that i'll be able to watch more than just one movie tomorrow. *Fingers crossed* I am hoping to finish watching the series before upcoming Wednesday
And now I am mad I have to make so many tweets like cant twitter loosen its character limit a little? Anyways, I am gonna have dinner/supper whatever we have at night (forgive me, english isnt my mother tongue and fails me on occasions) and then I'll see when I can watch it...
Hoping for the best and am I crazy if I am already thinking of #Everlarking Star wars series, especially the movies with Kylo and Rey? I saw the last scene of TROS and that threw my brain in a whirlwind of plotting a new crossover-ish fic for THG...😅😅
So I watched the movie and kept tweeting while I did because I wanted to commemorate it but i decided to share my asinine thoughts here too so...SPOILERS!
Warning: this post is a compilation of several tweets so it may not make complete sense all at one place especially if you haven't seen the movie in which case you may not know which part I am referring to...anyways...
I just saw the stormtroopers 'storming' (lol, bad pun!) in but they were being pretty considerate, not walking over the bodies of the men they took down like 'hey, we already won on this lets disrespect them no more by NOT trampling the bodies on our way in'
Cute-sy smol robot is R2-D2 woohoo, i finally know why people like this smol guy. Also, awkward breathing sounds break the music when the black cloaked dude (Palpatine?) enters...Hi Leia! you look niceee
oh, Its Darth Vader, not Palpatine...Gooo Leia, don't go down without a fight and since you cant use guns, use your diplomatic tongue and wage verbal war!!
Oh no! R2!! get back up! (and whats that golden robot dude called again?)
Nice to meet you C-3PO and Luke! he's kinda cute in his rebellious, pissy glory lol. (do i have another fictional crush? maybe...)
Poor Luke! ): + Luke: That little droid's going to get me in a lot of trouble
C-3PO: Oh he excels at that! 📷📷
Honest opinion (no offense to star wars lovers) but banthas and sandpeople sound like they all communicate via farts...it surely sounds that way... Oh they found Obi Wan and he looks less older than I expected!
Aw shucks! Even if I didnt like Owen I still hurt for poor Luke to find Owen and Beru's bodies literally fucking cooked! It must've been traumatizing seeing as that was the life he had always known...
No offense but all these creatures/aliens whatever those peeps that don't look like humans are so hideous I cant help snorting.
P.S. Han Solo looks sooooooooooo fuckin delectably hot that if i were an empress, i'd abdicate just to have his d**k in me everyday...📷📷
its hilarious how aliens are getting sliced through and fried or killed and whatever in the bar thing-y and the others just look back and go back to whatever they were doing XD
I love Leia, she's sassy till the end!!! I love the name Alderaan, it sounds so damn regal! Also, it looks like Earth...
Han Solo trying to distract magnificently and then blasting shit because "boring conversation anyway" 📷
Han: Wonderful girl, either i am gonna kill her or i am beginning to like her while Leia is all badass bitch calling him flyboy lol
Han Solo: The garbage chute was a wonderful idea...what an incredible smell you've discovered 📷📷I legit died laughing
C-3PO: Listen to them, R2, they're all dying in response to Luke's hysterical laughter was fuckin legendary!
Han Solo's 'I take orders from just one person -me!' Is so damn relatable!
I finished watching #StarWars #NewHope and as you guys must've noticed, as the suspense and action started increasing, my babbling started decreasing lol. I got so damn invested I couldnt pause it for one fuckin second!
I now see the appeal the series holds for y'all people, i should never have doubted the likes of the majority including my close friends and honorary mom. The action, the fighting, the suspense and the *swoons and drools and faints* Han Solo and Luke *dies*
Like damn, I'd donate all my organs if it meant making out with Han and I'd definitely like to be cooked like Owen and his wife for a chance to shag either Han or Luke! Fuuuck why?! Even the music and video quality got bearable over time as I got more and more invested!
IDK if I'll be able to watch more today but I'd love to watch the next movie today and if I do, I'll start a new thread for it📷📷 For my sake, I hope I can!! God I am in loooveeee. If Han and Luke did that, I wonder what will happen when Kylo appears and I'd love to find out...
I just realized that they ended the movie in a way that if they wouldnt have made any future movies, it wouldve been fine because they gave us a somewhat justifiable ending like 'they won, who cares if they never verified if Vader is alive' thingy.
P.S. Sorry, i totally forgot Ben Kenobi 'died', i am getting the feeling he actually didnt die idk why but, oh well, sad sad lets move on...
I loooveee Han Solo from the top of his head to his last toe and his humour had me in fuckin hysterics! That greedy, funny, hot, bad piece of ass! i'd loove to fuck!!
