Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I'm okay with the idea of him using his mastery of the Dark Side to turn himself into a sort of Sith Lich (say that three times fast) but I'd like to know how he managed to unexplode himself.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Maybe he's part sponge and his cells just gradually stick themselves back together afterwards. Then we just need a solution for him to float around in until he's done.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Headcanon accepted.

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500

Uhm, if you're accepting JJ Abrams headcannon as something plausible, then I'm worried for you.

I'm accepting billytea's canon. Haven't actually seen RoS yet, but I am here for Palpatine being part sponge

As an added bonus, in his final scenes when he's hanging on a stick he'll be good for cleaning all those hard-to-reach places as well.

Yes, that feels right

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I dragged my 10 yo niece and sister-in-law to see Little Women over the holidays. The niece was sadly indifferent to it, but the SiL cried buckets and declared herself a fan. I loved it just as much the second time around and am seriously thinking about going to see it the third time (I mean, I have the AMC A-list membership so technically it won't cost me anything extra). The world is terrible and apparently this is my happy place now? I am OK with that!

A bit sad that I don't have any wish to go see TRoS again. (I went to see TFA like 5 times in the theater, and TLJ 3 times.) I had been much more fannish about the sequel trilogy than the original and now am feeling very meh about it all. Ah well. *philosophical shrug* Fannish circle of life, etc.

So, Golden Globes was last night and the big winner was Sam Mendes' 1917, which is opening wide this weekend. On one hand, the news cycle is REALLY not making me want to see a war movie, no matter how well-made. On the other hand, Roger Deakins!

I did go see Bombshell before I left for the holidays. It was alright.

NO, THANK YOU

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I do not need an explainer on the economics of folding pizza boxes.
