*sigh* Trunks are not “underwear,” they’re athletic wear.

Yet again I remember we’ll never get Hollywood movie written by Dwayne McDuffie. He could have made these characters work.

Why didn’t they go with “moldus”, which was the translation of “muggle” in the French version of the books? Using it would’ve made more sense to me than using a translation of the American term. My French Canadian heart is sad, now :(

If “muggle” is that wacky, I can’t wait to find out the Australian word.

Elektra: Assassin was so far ahead of its time. Frank Miller and Bill Sienkiewicz we’re a dream team, and IMHO it was a high mark for both of their careers. Check it out of you can find it.

Fun japanese language fact: “Tabi Kaeru” is actually a small play on words.

The ships they were taking down to the planet were troop transports whose only role is to ferry people from a planet to a starship and back. No need to put light speed engines on those I guess.

I think there are a couple things going on there, and the real answer is

Just one question about the saber. Why would the colour of the saber have tipped Kylo off? Did Luke have the only blue saber in the galaxy? Could he not maybe have had Obi-Wan’s saber? Or maybe he built another saber in the last 40 years using a blue Kyber crystal? Anyway...just wondering.

This is one of my biggest problems with it. That one ship tore apart the fleet!

For that matter why haven’t ships been doing that since episode 4. There have always been times when there were big ships that needed killing. If this is an option why not just make light speed ramming bomb ships piloted by droids?

Holdo ramming the First Order ships at light speed was one of the most bad-ass moments in Star Wars cinematic history.

I have a couple more!

One gripe: If it weren’t for Finn and Rose bringing an unscrupulous hacker they happened across in jail onto the resistance flagship, those transports would have never been destroyed...right? I mean, by the time Del Toro disabled the hyperspace tracker on the FO ship, Holdo was already evacuating the flagship and they…

In the beginning, God said, let there be lightspeed, and there was lightspeed.

Oooh, like Aang asking the former Avatars for guidance. That would be nice.

What questions do you have?

It struck me yesterday that Luke’s late appearance on the battlefield reminded me dramatically of Achilles in Homer’s Iliad. For book after book of the Iliad, we hear what an amazing warrior Achilles is, but we never see him fight. He just sulks in his tent, as Luke does on his island. And then Achilles goes to battle…
