THE CINEMATOGRAPHY OF ANDOR

what's fun about the trickster in sja is that for all he claims to love chaos, what he actually poses is the threat of normality. sarah is weird. both as a person, and for someone of her age - she skipped all the typical milestones of adulthood; she never married, never had kids, you get the idea. what does the trickster present her with? an alternate version of reality where her life is normal. in whatever happened to sarah jane?, sarah is literally replaced by a woman who lives in her house but acts far more like what you'd expect from a woman her age. in the temptation of sarah jane smith, sarah is presented with the opportunity to replace her childhood as an orphan raised by her aunt with a childhood raised by her parents. the wedding of sarah jane smith speaks for itself - an opportunity to replace a life spent perennially single with marriage. crucially, each of these occasions is a path to certain destruction - course correcting her life to be normal will literally destroy the world. the trickster is an outside force threatening to impose social expectations on sarah's life; it is perhaps telling that it is otherworldly forces, in particular the doctor - long a symbol of nonconformity and weirdness - that counteract and ward off the trickster. the trickster is tempting because he offers what seems like a better life. but equally, the trickster only has power over reality if you let him.

This debate over what Mon Mothma’s speech was commentary on irl annoys me so…

It could have been about a lot of things. It was about one thing.

Fascism.

The Empire is Space Fascists. Space Nazis.

And one of the most famous and obvious examples of a massive propaganda campaign - aka ‘the loss of an objective truth’ - is Nazi Germany.

See this…

and this…

and finally…

Anyone else this speech made you think of is either heading down or has already arrived at the end of a dangerous road.

Jacket. Hoodie. Jumper.

You watch the Pitt because you like Noah Wyle from ER. I watch the Pitt because I like Noah Wyle as the weird ass lawyer in the reboot of an early 2000s tv show about criminals who con billionaires. We are not the same.
