Mother!. It’s been months since I had my last J.Law fix.
I think you’ll like this one (I think).
I did … at first.

I’m tempted to make “The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat” my personal series finale. The preceding episodes this season have been mediocre to terrible, and the succeeding episodes will likely return to form right up to the actual finale, which is guaranteed to be a clusterfuck of absolute failure.
The only way to make Spock Meyers more disturbing is add the Spock’s Brain headset and have someone remote controlling his empty husk to kill. 😉
We so need “like” buttons around here.
I still want to take hallucinogens.
I like the first two Raimi Spidey films, the second less than the first. They’re far from perfect, but at least they resemble the Spideyverse I got to know in the comics. Everything since is funhouse mirror junk.
Spidey’s costume was cooler when it was red & black with a blue spider on the back.
Sometimes no one to trust is better than anyone to trust.
This is my life philosophy.
O hai Mulder.
Perhaps. Who’s to say what they put in weiners these days.

Feeling bad doesn’t feel good.
Tell that to the masochists.
My last dream was pretty damn pathetic. I was frying myself up two jumbo-sized cheeseburgers. When my back was turned, they transformed into a pair of overcooked weiners.
Lame.
What does bleeding a crystal mean anyway?
It means that a Sith takes a living Kyber crystal that has already bonded with a Jedi and forces his will onto it, and “bleeding” it in the process, turning it red. The idea is that all Sith must earn their lightsabers by killing a Jedi and stealing their crystal.
Meh.
If there needs to be a specific reason why Sith use red lightsabers and Jedi use blue/green lightsabers, why can’t it just be tradition? Perhaps in their early past, both orders used a wider variety of lightsaber colours, but they gradually stopped using such colours once they became associated with their trademark hues. Why must everything be so damn convoluted?
And I can not accept Prequel and Rogue One Vader.
Could you please explain why? I mean R1 (as problems with Prequels-Vader are pretty much obvious). All I hear from people is “daddy’s joke”.
Let’s put that joke aside (which is just as perversely cruel as ESB “apologies accepted” / “Perhaps you think you are being treated unfairly?” and so on, so I don’t see a problem here) and let’s ignore the hallway scene (although I’ll have to use all my willpower not to talk about a scene that got burned in my memory forever).
What’s so great about R1 Vader for me? Well, what’s so great about Vader anyway, "shouldn’t people stop idolizing a villain?"
Despite all the ruthlessness, he still seems to follow some knightly codex. And since ESB we believe “there’s good in him”.R1 does reinforce his mysterious line from ANH and could hint to its meaning.
“Don’t be too proud of this technological terror you’ve constructed”
^^ why doesn’t the main villain like their brand-new superweapon, eh?
“A city destroyed!”, he says in R1 and then turns his back to Krennic.
Guilt, remorse… perhaps? Did you notice it? Strange, I didn’t find any oh-so-smrt reviewer analyzing this bit!
Remember “we can end this destructive conflict” from ESB?The Vader I believe in (and thus I reject the prequels) had sworn allegiance to the Emperor/Empire believing it to be the lesser evil (prequels failed to show us that the Clone Wars were horrible and forming an empire sounded like a last chance to save the civilized galaxy from certain doom), especially after being brainwashed by Palpatine.
He won’t show mercy to the rebels, but mass killing civilians… maybe this filled him with doubts?I find R1 Vader pretty much in-character.
I agree with all of the above.
But nope. Red = bad & everything else = good for stupid EU reasons.
“you’ve constructed a new lightsaber. Your skills are now complete. Now join me, throw this away, and build a red one.”
LOL!
Even when I subscribed to the “darksiders use red” school of thought, I never once thought there was any big in-universe rationale behind it; I saw it as symbolism, pure and simple. I imagined if Luke had turned to the dark side and joined Palpatine, he would’ve kept using his green saber unless/until he lost it or it was destroyed.
I wonder what the EU thought about red lightsabers before the PT? Combined with Vader’s appearance, it’s such a clear visual indicator that he is a villain. Yet, I can’t think of any Sith or Dark Jedi other than Vader that had a red saber prior to TPM.
Kharys, Flint, Brakiss, Zekk during his stint with the Shadow Academy, Sindra, the darksiders in Empire’s End, and this guy all had red lightsabers.
But nope. Red = bad & everything else = good for stupid EU reasons.
It’s a stupid PT thing, not EU, right?
Leia had a red saber in the EU.
I guess I should change that to “stupid EU explanations that came later to justify stupid PT reasons”.
And Leia’s red lightsaber was awesome.
He was indeed.
I blame Hans Moleman.
I haven’t listened to enough Oingo Boingo. I should rectify that.

“I have given no definition of love. This is impossible, because there is no higher principle by which it could be defined. It is life itself in its actual unity. The forms and structures in which love embodies itself are the forms and structures in which love overcomes its self-destructive forces.”

“Grace strikes us when we are in great pain and restlessness. It strikes us when we walk through the dark valley of a meaningless and empty life. It strikes us when our disgust for our own being, our indifference, our weakness, our hostility, and our lack of direction and composure have become intolerable to us. It strikes us when, year after year, the longed-for perfection of life does not appear, when the old compulsions reign within us as they have for decades, when despair destroys all joy and courage. Sometimes at that moment a wave of light breaks into our darkness, and it is as though a voice were saying: ‘You are accepted.’"
