Puppeteer Headcanons
K so this mans has been living in my head rent free since I first laid eyes on them (like 2013) so here are my headcanons about their backstories, personalities, and more. Some are inspired by the original stories and lore, some are inspired by other bloggers, some are me self-projecting. Warning there are mentions of dark themes so keep caution. Also i am not a writer, (im sorry) @creepy-bi-day enjoy!!
Puppeteer~
Backstory: 
Puppeteer was born as Jonathon Blake on July 23, 1974
Mother was Hispanic, dad was American. He grew up speaking Spanish and English. He also never really got along with both sides of the family cause he’s mixed (they didn’t like that). They kinda preferred his siblings.
had 4 younger siblings (3 girls, 1 boy). He was 4 years older than the second child.
ever since he could walk he was obsessed with musical theater. For a while his family was able to Johnny to theater camp. Stopped after the 3rd child was born due to financial reasons
parents were working full time to take care of their family. meant Johnny was basically acting like a 3rd parent. good news was he was able to take care of all 4 of them and meet their basic need of being fed, staying clean etc. bad news it meant that he was taking care of them 24/7 and was constantly tired and not taking care of himself. Started to develop symptoms of depression, but couldn’t get help due to the stigmas around mental health + he’s a guy.
got worse in highschool when his work load increased and he wanted to do more in drama and music but couldn’t cause he had to take care of his siblings. He also didn’t make many close friends except for one girl in his drama class Erma. 
Erma was his best friend and they started dating in their second year of highschool. She helped him as much as she could with his mental health, their studies, and even helped babysit some days. They brought out the best in each other. 
Erma loved dance and wanted to become a ballerina, but her parents tried to keep her focus on studies. They did allow her to take theater which she also loved. Her parents were very strict and controlling so she had to hid her relationship.
It wasn’t until the second child turned 13 (johnny was 17), when she started to help out more with the other three siblings (12f, 9f, 7m). Thanks to her help and now they were in a better financial position, johnny was able to join plays and bands which had afterschool practices.
He was really good. He discovered he was born with perfect pitch and was able to get the lead in a play in his final year. This was also when he was able to score a scholarship so some of his uni fees would be paid for.
he decided to major in theater and wanted to go on Broadway or at least become a drama teacher
however when apply for uni, Erma’s parents discovered their relationship and they offered Erma a choice, break up with johnny or else they wouldn’t pay for Erma’s schooling. They hated johnny mostly due to racism and the fact that he wasnt going into a “stable career”. Erma choose to break up with Johnny but didn’t want to tell him these reasons cause she knew that it would upset him. So instead she told him that she’s fallen out of love and wanted to break up.
Johnny agreed mostly to make her happy, but this started his spiral downwards.
Johnny didn’t have any friends other than Erma, he also went to uni in a different city so he didn’t have his family there. His depression got really bad, and he ended up isolating himself and failing first term. He decided to kill himself via hanging. Problem is he wasn't heavy enough to kill himself right away, so he was suffering for hours. 
He spent his last few hours allowing himself to finally “be selfish” and allowed himself to be angry at his family, Erma, and his overall life.
due to this anger, he was able to come back as a ghost, wanting others to feel the same pain as him.
when he came back he was able to change his body into his idea of a perfect vessel, some improvement were making himself taller, better hair, clear face, smooth voice, bigger dick.  and now feeds off of negative energy
Personality:
cold-hearted, cunning, manipulative, a smooth talking, somewhat charming. this is the very carefully crafted version of Puppeteer, He’s the guy who could talk you into doing anything, mostly stuff like jumping off a bridge
however once you get close to him, you see more of Johnathon than puppet. He is very protective of his close friends, will fuss over them and scold them if they aren’t taking care of themselves
good luck getting there tho. After Erma he really had a hard time opening up to ppl due to his fear that they will all leave him at one point. 
Powers:
he feeds off of negative energies, the more trauma the better (finally imma a snack), so he usually influences his victims into a deep depressed state where they off themselves. However once he started hanging out with the creeps (mansion au), he really didn’t need to do that since everyone is a lil fucked up. He just feeds off a little bit of everyone, so that no one is really affected. At this point, he probably has enough energy to outlive the fucking queen
He’s a ghost so he can levitate at most like 10 m above the ground, and if he focuses, he can go through walls and become invisible. 
he has golden strings due to the ectoplasm inside of him (make his eyes and mouth glow to). This strings are like limbs, They are tough to break but if you do its gonna hurt him a lot. They can extend up to 60 ft, and are about 1 cm thick. 
Fun Facts (cause idk how to categorize these)
lots of trauma, need therapy. he feels a lot of shame for what happened and only opens up to his very close friends. again born in 70′s, theres the toxic masculinity and some internalized homophobia. 
still a theater kid!! love musicals and can still sing and play guitar. His vocal cords are a lil more sensitive cause the whole hanging thing, but as long as he warms up, can has the range baby. also has Macbeth memorized
can still cook. while he doesn’t like his past and doesn’t need to eat. He wrote down all of the recipes he knew and will sometimes make them again
dick is 6.5 inchs soft 7.5 hard, i know y’all wanted to know. if also like 6′2 tall. tall big boi
i hc him as pansexual. yea he rather died again than admit that he loves someone, but he won’t care about gender. he still is cis tho.
he does fuck. not often but occasionally. slightly lower sex drive than average 
grunge king. he grew up in poverty and he great at diy. very leans more punk grunge but can be soft grunge depending on his mood. love beanies and his hair is a little longer than chin length with lots of layers. He is tempted to shave off the sides of his head tho. also has grunge and punk music on his playlists.
bad with tech. like the opposite of ben. gets called an old man since he couldn’t figure out how the tv remote works.
he doesn’t grow facial hair, doesn’t like the look.
acts like he’s too proper to cuss, but he does.... a lot
experienced some racism while growing up so he does say ACAB
probably has some piercings or tattoos or both 
still is depressed, has some tough days, but doctor ej gets him pills to help and he has a good support system
shit this was a lot so Helen is next with another post. ill get into their friendship and relationships with other in a whole new post if yall like it. someone tell me if this gives joy cause i could write an essay on this man

Thoughts on Far From Home
So I've had a little over a day to process it all and shit. Probably should've done this when everything was fresh in my mind so I'll probs come back to this if I rewatch it this weekend. Sorry if I forget some stuff, feel free to ask about it if I miss something!!
Anyways,
That in memoriam scene damn near knocked me tf out...the watermarked stock photos, the doves in the background of Tony's picture, the low res picture of Vision that was a masterpiece of its own. That should have been the movie, I would've watched hours of that tbh
Aunt May stay looking fine like damn you are the definition of "people who mind they business age fine" or whatever that saying is
May and Peter doing humanitarian shit made my heart for uWu and shit
Netty Pot is the cutest thing ever and yeah pretty much how hs relationships work for the most part
The VISUAL OF THE BLIP?? It was so stupid but it was so good I almost cried of laughter and the way they reappeared??
I cackled during Mr. Harrington's story about how his wife pretended to blip
Nick Fury can suck a dick in this one ngl, leT PETER LIVE
I need to stress how FINE Jake Gyllenhaal is, I will STFU now bc then I won't if I keep going
EDITH My love!! Also Peter calling in a mf drone on Brad like damn bitch chilllllll literal definition of disaster bi
But also I'm upset Brad Davis was made into the asshole, Remy hii is too fine for that i hate it
Peter giving Mysterio the glasses, i was screaming internally calling him a dumbass bc wHY WOULD TONY CHOOSE YOU OF ALL PEOPLE TO CHOOSE THE NEXT TS??!! IT WAS FOR YOU!!!
My take on Peter handing the glasses away: Tony knows better than to give Peter that kind of power. Yeah, Tony thought Peter was capable of handling his own, why else would he let him keep all that tech? But I think Tony would also be smart enough to not put that kind of pressure on Peter as well as give such a big responsibility to Peter. However, I know it wasn't completely Peter's fault, he was under some Mysterio trance or whatever; he trusted him. But I still think Peter should have known that in the back of his mind, that Tony would probs never give Peter that option to choose the next Tony Stark or Iron Man (whatever the note said lmao)
Everything after felt almost blasphemous with Beck and co. talking shit on Tony. It felt wrong, bc THAT'S MY BABY! TONY STARK IS MY BABY
The illusion scene was so amazing tbh and it was just so damn awesome to watch holy shit
ZOMBIE IRON MAN HOly fUCk I was jumping in my seat. I was crying, don't get me wrong. Reading the grave w Tony's name made me sad but then seeing the deteriorated gauntlet got me so pumped I'm actually really pumped reminiscing on the scene and then when he COMES OUT IN THE DETERIORATED SUIT AND HE THRUSTS HIMSELF UP BEFORE IT CLOSES UP AND IT SHOWS THE HELMET W THE SKULL AND IT LOOKS SO WICKED SO AWESOME I WAS PUMPED YALL THAT SHIT WAS iNTENSE IN THE BEST WAY I need an HD pic of it for my aesthetic and shit
Side note: I plan on getting zombie iron man tattooed on me it was amazing.
The train?? Oof
The jet scene w happy made me cry for so many reasons. I was happy to see Happy
Peter watched porn before or after fighting Captain America and honestly I probably would too ngl. Not to be weird but he probably watched a Thor porn parody bc I would too (call it Thor Ragnacock)
The AC/DC scene got me listening to them again holy shit and now I miss Tony :((
"I love Led Zeppelin" I was so ready to smack a fucking kid holy shit but wow I love one (1) dumbass
The final battle was intense but so good
When Peter mimicked Cap he should have said "Avenger [singular] Assemble" that was a missed opportunity but oh well
That spidEY SENSE SCENE?? WITH THE DARK ROOM AND THE DRONES?? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? THAT WAS AMAZING JUST IMAGINE PLAYING SOME ROCK SONG OVER IT it would be like the new AC/DC in IM, Immigrant Song in Thor, Just A Girl in CM type thing it would've been amazing and we were robbed. I personally would have put something by Rob Zombie or maybe White Zombie maybe Misfits but idk
The scene in the airport with I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend playing and Peter and MJ holding hands was acc really cute
RAMONES THO?? I got so so excited heading IWBYB. First Blitzkrieg Bop in Hoco and now this?? Jon Watts was a punk no doubt about it (I can see him being into ska ngl) I see you homie. (I REALLY love Ramones I own like 30 shirts)
JJJ!!! I SCREAMED I JUMPED IN MY SEAT I WAS PUMPED
Mysterio revealing pETER HAD ME FUCKED UP HOLY SHIT

*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚✧*:・゚
You hadn’t even noticed that you had been staring until Nat nudged your back roughly with the toe of her sneaker, snatching you from your reverie.
“Christ, could you just stop it already?”
“Stop what?” you asked defensively, standing from your seated position on one of the mats. Hostility was the easiest way to hide your embarrassment. Unfortunately, it was a pretty transparent mechanism. Your hand rubbed soothingly at the spot on your lower back that Nat had assaulted. “You didn’t have to kick me.”
“I didn’t kick you, it was a nudge. Don’t be a baby.” Your mouth opened to protest, but she cut you off quickly. “Listen, quit making eyes at Barnes. Those wistful stares are making me sick. You’ve been doing that for the past forty-five minutes.”
Your eyes rolled in response, denial rising in your throat like bile. “It wasn’t a ‘wistful stare’. And I wasn’t even staring at Bucky, I was watching them spar. I was analyzing, collecting data, watching and learning.” The lie spilled out of you easily and smoothly...Nat wasn’t the only person you had to constantly lie to about your feelings for Bucky. Your own brain was suspicious of your heart’s supposed desires.
You placed your hands on your hips, your gaze returning to Bucky, who was sparring with Sam. His movements were bouncy, sprightly—which could only be attributed to a good night’s rest. There was a playfulness in his tentative jabs, which Sam was happy to play along with. When Sam threw a hopeful fist, Bucky dodged the blow with an incredible swiftness, like he was had already calculated which move Sam was going to make next. Unlike Sam’s, his body was relaxed. Broad shoulders only squared slightly, he shifted buoyantly on the balls of his feet like a cocky boxer.
“Well, I hope you’ve taken some good notes,” the redhead grinned.
“What does tha—”
“Hey, boys!” she called, ignoring your sudden pleas to get her to shut up. “Y/N’s got Bucky next on the mat.”
Your cheeks grew warm with a rush of embarrassment and you whispered a discreet (and very vicious) “Fuck you” to your unruly friend through gritted teeth. If you could kill Nat, you totally would, but the sight of Bucky sending you that gleaming grin—despite being in the midst of a fight—prevented you from doing so. Damn it.
You could almost see Bucky growing bored, Sam growing tired. He was a predator, simply teasing its helpless, yet tenacious prey. It took him less than a full ten seconds for him to bring Sam down onto the mat and pin him down. It was in Bucky’s smle, it had been a playful game, played until he wore Sam out. Until he wanted a new challenge. You were unsure how much of a challenge you might prove to be. Bucky was strong and today, was on the top of his game. You were positive he would have you down in one minute flat.
“Alrighty, doll,” he called out to you, holding his arms out wide and turning in a slow circle on the mat. “Let’s go!”
Nat patted your back encouragingly, a sickeningly hellish grin on her face.
“Fuck you.”
She laughed loudly at your profane comment. “I heard you the first time.”
As you stood on the mat with Bucky, your self-consciousness ebbed away, seeming to dissolve into the feeling of fondness you got whenever he came near you. His skin glistened with a light sheen of sweat, catching the light in some new abstract way as he hopped around the mat. You replicated his motions with ease, it was one of your abilities; mimicry. It worked to confuse the opponent, but it only worked for so long. Your ability to adapt made you a far fiercer competitor than you gave yourself credit for.
“So what’s got you so happy?” You asked, ducking your head to dodge a swipe of his closed fist.
“What’s got you so happy?” he returned the question with raised eyebrows. “You haven’t stopped smiling since you got on this damn mat. You’re that confident that you can beat my ass?”
Had you been smiling this whole time? You hadn’t noticed. You were too focused on his chipper attitude. And his smile. And his lower lip caught between his teeth. And the way that lock of hair kept falling into his eyes, despite him pushing it back fervently. And not getting your ass handed to you.
“I’m just smiling. Want me to stop?” A few more blocked jabs. He ducked and turned and chuckled, still he bounced. Bubbly and light, trying to keep you on your toes. The two of you moved in incredible sync, giggling for no reason as you circled the mat, gazes fixed on one another, searching for the slightest twitch of a muscle—the tell of the next move. 
“No, doll, nev—” He caught your ankle mid-air, inches from connecting with his jaw. “Really?”
Your eyes went wide with surprise, his metal hand wrapped firmly around your ankle. He didn’t even give you time to wrench it out of his grip. He had you laid flat out on your stomach with the simple twist of his vibranium wrist.
“Shit,” you gasped in attempt to regain the air that had been knocked from your chest upon impact. You were reluctant to get up and resorted to rolling over onto your back. Your chest heaved, expanding with air. You winced, feigning pain. Milking it just a little bit.
Bucky’s eyes were unsympathetic at first. They peered down at you curiously, mocking suspicion. “Well? You just gonna lay there?” he taunted with a playful grin. “I know you saw that coming, doll.”
“I didn’t think you were actually gonna do it.” You frowned up at him. It was all in jest, he knew you weren’t fragile. Neither was he. Not physically, at least.
He held out his hand to you and you gratefully took it, allowing him to pull you to your feet. His smile was so big that his eyes crinkled at the corners, his hand still clasped yours, the metal cool against your hot palm. “You usually put up more of a fight than this, I expected more of a challenge.” He released your hand, turning away.
The moment he had his back turned you reeled your arm backwards to take a final, unsuspected swing at him, but as he often did, he caught you before you could. His hand gripped your wrist, upon his lips was a knowing grin. “God, Y/N, you really are somethin’, but you really need to get new tricks. So damn predictab—oof!” Bucky hit the ground with a resounding thud, flat on his back. His blue eyes were wide and his lips were parted; stunned. You were unable to hold back the flood of laughter that erupted from your lips, echoing through the gym.
“‘So damn predictable,’” you paused, breathless from your uncontrollable laughter. “‘I know you saw that coming, doll.’”
An exasperated sigh blew past his lips and his eyes fluttered shut. When he made a move to get up, you placed a halting foot on his chest and kept laughing. You laughed until your sides ached. “Should have seen...your face,” you managed to say in between giggles. Tears stung your eyes, and  you wiped them away with the heel of your hand.
“Are you done yet?”
You paused and took a thoughtful, shuddering breath. “No, hold on. I think I got a few more laughs left,” you snickered.
He gripped your ankle again, and roughly pulled your foot from his chest, the force making you stumble a little.
“Hilarious, really.” His voice was even, monotonous—only making you laugh harder. He could only feign annoyance for so long, soon he was begrudgingly laughing too. “Quit cacklin’. Let’s go, you punk.” He wrapped a heavy arm around your shoulders, which you shrugged off. He looked to you with confusion.
Your nose wrinkled, “You smell pretty foul, Buck.”
He laughed, taking that comment as some sort of request to be pulled closer to him. He held you close now in an iron grip, your face pressed against his hard chest. He ignored your cries for release. You kicked and flailed, tugging his arm off of you, but he still held you tight. He wouldn’t let you go if his life depended on it.
“Jeez, Y/N, what’s cookin’ inside that big head of yours?” His voice was like a gentle breeze, refreshing and cool. “I think there’s steam coming out of your ears.”
It was late in the evening, you and Bucky were seated across from one another at your favorite Chinese restaurant—your shared escape from the rest of the team. A red glow from the neon light strung above your table illuminated his statuesque features. The dark shadows cast by the dismal lighting worked to carve out his already chiseled face. The square of his jaw, the barely-there cleft in his chin, prominent cheekbones—hidden slightly by his neatly trimmed beard. Was it wrong to notice such beautiful things about a friend? No, you thought decidedly, just because he’s your best friend doesn’t mean he’s not beautiful.
“Huh?”
“I asked what’s goin’ on. You seem so out of it, everything alright?”
No. Everything is not alright because I love you.
“Everything is fine.”
He had taken your thoughtful pause as a sign of apprehension. “No, nope.  Something’s bugging you. C’mon,” his tongue darted out of his mouth to wet his lower lip, “tell ol’ Buck what’s goin’ on.”
“Everything’s fine, really,” you smiled widely, to reassure him.
“You forget that I know you. I can read you like the back of my hand,” he held up his flesh hand, flexing his fingers with a goofy smile. “Really, doll. You can tell me.”
You considered it. What would you say? I love you.
What would he say? I love you too.
No James, I mean I love you. Like, really love.
And I love you too, like really love.
No. I love you. For real. Romantically.
Oh.
“I was just thinking about how happy you were today, that’s all. I was watching you, when you were sparring with Sam. It was just funny, that’s all.”
“Yeah? What’s so funny about it?” He asked through a mouthful of lo mein.
“I haven’t seen you like that in a while. You just seemed so...I don’t know. Just happy, I guess.”
“I was.”
You shoveled a spoonful of rice into your mouth and nodded.
“I am,” he corrected with a wide grin, swallowing his food. He didn’t need to clarify, but the fact that he did made your heart glow with love. “It’s what a good night’s rest will do.”
“I know,” you laughed. “You should sleep more often. It’s reassuring to know that you’re more than just some cranky bastard.” Had it been anyone else making that joke, it wouldn’t have been taken with the same lighthearted amusement. You were the one that stayed up into the early hours of the morning when Bucky couldn’t sleep. You were the one that held him when he felt afraid. You were the one that welcomed him to your bed, in the most innocent sense of the words, whenever he needed you. You had the right to make these jokes because you dealt with each and every facet of Bucky. The good, the bad, the ugly—he was beautiful to you all the same.
The two of you ate until your bellies couldn’t hold anymore; each of you growing drowsy, ready for bed. You began the trek back to the tower hand in hand, but halfway through, when he’d grown tired of your incessant complaining, he allowed you to climb onto his back. His hands hooked beneath your thighs, your arms wrapped tight around his neck. You nuzzled your cheek against the side of his head and yawned.
“You’re a real crybaby, y’know?”
Back at the tower, the two of you showered...separately, much to your secret chagrin. Bucky knocked on your door before entering and flopped down onto his side of the bed.
“Can’t get enough of me today, huh?” you asked with a lift of an eyebrow.
He was grinning boyishly at you, a knowing look glittering in his azure orbs.
“What?”
“Another one of my shirts, huh?”
“Another night in my room, huh?” you quipped playfully. “You’re the idiot that keeps leaving them here.”
“You could just return them.”
“You could stop leaving them here.”
“Hm. That’s fair,” he said decidedly, settling further into his pillow.
You flopped down beside him, lying on your stomach. “So what’re we watching tonight?”
“No movie tonight. Fuck Leo. Let’s just sleep.”
“Get out.”
“What? Wait! Hold on—we can talk, then sleep. We can even talk about Leo if you wanna.”
You ended up settling for that. After turning off the lights, you settled into bed beside him. It was so dark you could barely see him, you almost considered opening the blinds just a little bit. Just to see the pale light of the moon wash over his skin. You didn’t. Instead, you listened to his soft breaths beside you, he had reached out to hold your hand. Warmth sourced from your clutching hands flooded your entire body, made your hairs stand on end. He liked to touch you when he was trying to sleep, he said it helped him sleep. The wishful part of you believed that it was more than that. He liked to touch you simply for the sake of feeling your skin against his. Doubt tended to debunk this theory, perhaps any sort of skin-to-skin contact truly helped him sleep.
He squeezed your hand gently and shifted, releasing your hand to instead wrap an arm around you protectively. You had no idea that he longed for you the same way you longed for him.
“Wanna know somethin’?” he whispered.
“Yeah.”
“Alright,” he began. You felt his chest rise and fall with the release of a sigh. “You can’t laugh.”
“I won’t.”
“I mean it, Y/N. It’s...kind of stupid,” he warned before he hesitantly continued. “Sometimes, when we’re together, I get this weird feeling. Like a certain...familiarity. I don’t know.”
You hummed in response, urging him to continue. He only ever seemed to open up when it was solely the two of you. Completely alone in the comfort of your familiar bed. This was when you saw saw beneath the beautiful exterior and into the mysterious vortex that was Bucky Barnes—the good, the bad, the ugly. Sometimes you would get lost in it, get lost in him. The way he threw his head back when he laughed. The way he said your name as if it were the first time, testing the word out on his lips carefully as if it were fragile china. Sometimes he’d say it twice, simply because he liked the sound of it.
“I just...I just know that this is good. For me. You know...for you. I feel it.” He chose his words carefully, you could sense the slight apprehension in each one of them. The heartfelt intent behind them was palpable, you were too happy to even analyze what they truly meant. In the darkness, you were beaming. You were glad he couldn’t see your smiling face and the warm blush of your cheeks. He did not need to know that your heart was fluttering in your rib cage like a startled bird and that in your belly was the tug of the fondness you felt for him. He did not need to know that those words meant everything and more to you. He did not need to know that you were in love with him.

GIVE US THE STAR WAR SPOILERS
like, all of em??
because, if so
HERES THE WHOLE DAMN FUCKING FILM UNDER THE CUT
We open to poe dameron about to fuck up a ship called a dreadnought - which is HUGE - because the rest of the rebellion is trying to evacuate. he cals hux, pretends he has no signal, makes a yo mama joke then begins blowing up the surface guns so that the ship cant destroy the bombers who are on their way to smash the ship.
leia tells him not to do the thing, he ignores her, blows up all the guns, and summons the bombers, which are these huge bulky things which move at a snails pace while tiefighters and x-wings fight around them. all but one of the bombers blows up, and the last bomber is able to drop the payload because of an asian officer we later realise is rose’s sister. rose’s sister is one of the many who die, with about five x-wings making it back. The rebellion goes to warp, finn wakes up and asks ‘where’s rey’.
Rey is exactly where we left her. she gives the lightsaber to luke, who yeets it over the edge and goes ‘fuck that shit im out’. she annoys him into accepting that she isn’t moving, then she plays the chewie card, and chewbacca trashes the shit outta the place. luke finds out han is dead, and FINALLY gets his head oudda his ass. Wont teach rey tho because kylo ren is a punk bitch who ruins everything. We see flashes of a flashy wristwatch. luke mentions kylo being a shit and talks about what happened. apparently luke confronted him about the darkness and ren went batshit. r2d2 also swears at luke repeatedly for a few seconds.
somewhere between snoke spends like five minutes roasting kylo ren and calling him a shithead while dressed in a gold bathrobe. ‘you have too much of your father’s heart’. ren smashes his helmet against the lift (rude) and yells at two officers to get his ship ready. hux is peacocking around like an asshole.
 while that happens leia gives poe shit for going ahead with a mission that got people killed. Leia HITS POE. LIKE FUCKING SMACKS HIM. (rian post ur address i just wanna talk) and then demotes him for doin his job??? even tho he aint really doing his job. poe is mad as fuCK. Leia has another flashy wristwatch which is actually a tracking device so rey can find the rebellion. she gives it to finn.
We drop out of warp, and everybody is seemingly chill until the first order rocks up literally 30 seconds later, including snoke, who has his own ship like an asshole. People panic, the first order, including kylo ren, attacks, and blows up the launch bay, killing every pilot except poe and a few others, and the bridge, which holds all the generals including leia. leia uses the motherfucking force to fly through space, and makes it back to the ship. she falls into a coma, where vice-admiral/general/mauve murder baby takes charge. her idea of saving everyone is to use their remaining fuel supply to stay just out of range of their gunners, which gives them about 16 hours left.
finn wants to save rey’s life so tries to sneak out, but gets caught by rose, who’s sobbing over the loss of her sister because they dont even get time to MOURN YALL. rose sees him as a hero, then talks about how shes caught 3 deserters, then realises finn is kind-of-deserting, then stuns him. finn wakes up in a trolley and explains the situation (lack of fuel, we’re all gonna die, they tracked us through warp) and rose figures out how they could track the fleet through warp.
if finn leads rose to the weird tracking thingo, she can disable it and save the fleet. the dynamic duo go to poe, whos confused and is really trigger happy and i dont like it, but he agrees that its a good idea. They ask maz how to break in, she says shes busy, and tells them to find this gambler guy with a red flower pin at Space Vegas. the team keep the plan under wraps, with only poe, finn, rose, and a few other officers knowing about the trip. finn, rose and bb8 leave, finn having given poe the tracking device thingy to poe.
Back at it again on depression island and rey is attempting to annoy luke into teaching her. We see the weird tiddy creatures, chewy eats some porgs and rey connects with the force and finds the ancient jedi texts in a funky looking tree. lukes asks who she is and why shes here, she says shes scared of the awakening and has no idea what to do. luke decides to get his act together and teach her.
the day he goes to teach her, rey’s chillin in her room and has a vision of Space trash panda - aka kylo ren - rey calls him a shithead and ren is confused as to how they’re talking, then rey freaks out and shoots the illusion, much to the chagrin of the caretakers (who look like my grandmother). rey lies to luke when he asks about the hole in the wall.
jedi lesson number one is to reach out and feel the force. after telling luke that being a jedi is about moving rocks and breaking shit, and being called a dumbass, rey sits on a rock and shows off a shittonne of power, but also a rising dark side (the motif of this film seems to be that the stronger u get the stronger the good/evil bitchfight) which makes luke panic because ‘this was what ben was like!!!!!!!!!!!! oh no!!!!!!!!!!’ luke get ya head oudda yo ass. its also revealed that luke has shut himself away from the force somehow.
the dynamic duo is in space vegas (they illegally park on a beach) and are walking through the casino and looking for Rose Brooch Guy. rose hears a noise and recognises it as the noise of some funky lookin animal which they use to race. finn says this place is great and asks why rose hates it. rose shares her backstory as the daughter of people who lost so much under the first order. its implied that rose joined because of what happened on starkiller base. she also talks about how everyone here sells weapons to the first order and gets rich off of it. bb8 does his damn job and finds red flower guy, but they get arrested for illegally parking the shuttle on the beach and dont get a chance to talk to the guy, whos gambling with two women on his arm.
one of the support ships runs out of fuel and gets exploded. I think its the medical one first. doesnt matter shit explodes and nobody cares.
JEDI LESSON #2: the jedi suck shit. the jedi are failures and luke keeps talking about it. talks about how he failed kylo ren. rey goes that there seems to be a light inside him (ew) somewhere near here. somewhere throughout the film are a few more force-vision things. one when its raining on Jedi island, one when Ren has no shirt (he looks like a ken doll) and another (the final one) when ren talks about his perspective of that night when luke confronted him.
rose and finn get thrown in space vegas prison, and are angrily yelling abt the problems with their plan when their roommate says ‘hey yeah i can break into a maximum security first order vessel’ then subsequently breaks out of prison. while rose and finn escape, bb8 bashes a few guards over the head and kicks ass.
Rose and Finn end up in the stables of those weird elephant-horse-camel creatures, and start a stampede with the help of the child slaves stable hands by using rose’s secret rebellion ring to prove theyre good guys. the animals seem to have a connection w/rose so i guess shes incredible. the dynamic duo are trapped between a clifface and the cops, and there’s a second where the pair say their ‘goodbye’s before a ship pops up with bb8 at the door going ‘get in bitch we’re going shopping!!!’ with the thief guy from before.
uuuh i think this is where support ship #2 goes because poe picks another fight saying that the new leader is running away and being a coward. she kicks him off the bridge.
rey explores the upside down dark force place on her own, and asks the dark force to show her her parents (I shit u not) it doesnt work and she tells this to kylo’s weirdass force ghost as she sits next to a fire. rey pleads w/ kylo to join the light one last time, and holds out her hand. fingertips touch and then luke fuckin rips the hut to shreds with the force. rey and luke fight, rey continuously pushing for the truth and luke confesses to, for a second, wanting to kill ren, and it was that second of weakness that led to all of this. rey thinks that ren can be saved and fucks off to Snoke’s Party Palace, where ren currently is. She takes the falcon and leaves luke behind.
poe starts a fight with the new leader while leia’s in a coma as the rebels abandon ship for the escape pods. he takes over and locks himself in the bridge to buy finn and rose more time. finn and rose have to barter with the codebreaker by giving him the only piece of her sister rose has left (a matching pendant with huge yin-yang vibes). finn calls him an asshole. the ship that they’re flying on belongs to somebody who sold weapons to both the first order and the resistance.
rey gets chewie to drop her off @ the Party Palace and is immediately captured by Ren and gets brought to Snoke. Snoke - still in the bathrobe - is pleased and brags about how his master plan is brilliant. turns out hes the reason there was a connection between them, AND the reason for the raging struggle in kylo ren. this bitch then fucking starts torturing rey for into on where the fuck luke is, rey aint a snitch so doesn’t say shit, but makes a few attempts at killing snoke. 
finn, rose, bb8, and randomass thief guy sneak onto the ship and wear disguises (including bb8, who is in an upside down trash can) to get to the tracking device thingy. however, bb8 is very unusual and attracts the attention of the first order version. thief guy uses rose’s necklace to crack open the lock, then gives it back. aww. but then they get caught by first order just as rose is about to break the tracker. not so aww. captain phasma shows up and finn is ready to start swinging.
poe’s locked down the bridge, and c3p0 is being a whiny shit and starts panicking when somebody starts lasering the door down. poe gets ready to shoot a bitch, but hesitates when he sees that it’s Our Lady and Saviour Leia. she, however, doesn’t hesitate and shoots him w/ something that causes him to go flying and knocks him out (???????)
on the rebellion ship, leia is talking to purple-hair lady - poe is being lifted into a shuttle - when purple-hair lady reveals that she’s going down w/ the ship so that the shuttles can escape. they say may the force be w/ u and leia looks longingly out the window @ her not-gf. poe wakes up, and leia explains the Master Plan. purple-hair lady knew about the tracking and had them rock up to this particular place because there’s a whole fucking planet nobody talks about that used to be a base.
rose and finn have been captured and are paraded thru the loading dock. the codebreaker sold information to the first order about the shuttles, and the ship begins firing on the shuttles.
WE INTERRUPT YOUR REGULAR SPACE FIGHT FOR SOME ANGSTY ISLAND BOI. luke goes to torch the tree where the jedi books are kept when yoda shows up (really bitch), asks wtf hes doing, then sets fire to the tree himself. theres some weirdass yoda speak of which i understood none of it but was about how failures are good teachers too (what is this motivational speaker month)
and back at it again at space fight the musical
Snoke’s still throwing rey around, then pushes her against a window so she can see the rebellion dying. he takes her/luke’s lightsaber, places it next to him, then tells kylo ren to kill her. snoke is revelling in rey being helpless, and starts monologuing kylo’s actions. ‘he turns the blade to face his true enemy’ luke’s blade shofts so it faces snoke ‘and slays his true enemy!’ a schwing, and snoke is literally a kebab. ren uses the force to DRAG THE LIGHT SABER THROUGH SNOKES FUCKIN ABDOMEN, CUTTING THAT PASTY BOI IN HALF. he gives it to rey, and then they fight snoke’s guards. its cool, there’s some teamwork, rey throws somebody in an oversized paper shredder. ren uses luke’s light saber at the end.
purple-hair lady sees that they’re going after her people and does possibly the coolest thing i’ve ever seen: she points the ship directly @ the bigass ship, and warps THROUGH IT. because there’s so little fuel, she doesn’t make it to actuasl warp, but is going fast enough that its an incredible battering ram which rips apart the ship, saving the lives of finn and rose, who are about to be executed. 
the floor breaks and they’re about to get outta there when phasma’s squad rocks up. one of the first order machines takes out most of the stormtroopers, and the pilot turns out to be bb8 (yeah, dont worry, rose and finn are confused too), and he distracts them as finn and phasma face off. the floor collapses and phasma falls in. byeeeeeee
rey and ren have won, everythings on fire, and ren decides that the best way to get a girl to join your side of the moral spectrum is to tell her that her parents are drunkards buried in paupers graves (damn, all those amazing lineage theories and they go with randomass power………… sad) and that the past should burn, the rebellion should die, all of it. he holds out his hand, and rey holds out hers SIKE shes taking the lightsaber and they’re basically standing there using the force when, really, some dumbass could just, yknow, GRAB IT. they are so ~evenly matched~ that luke’s lightsaber cracks down the middle, exploding and knocking them out.
NOW WERE GOING TO THE PLANET THINGY (god it never ends) where finn and rose make a dashing entrance and are almost killed because its a first order ship but poe hears them and calls off the gunfire (then immediately asks ‘WHERES MY DROID’ and honestly? i love). theyre surrounded by not-pokemon evolutions which are better than porgs. the rebellion gets a message sent to their allies (none answer. god thats worse than a groupchat) and then realises they’re sitting ducks because there’s one way into this base on the schematics and the first order is fuckin knocking.
hux finds ren on the floor, who blames rey for the death of snoke (bitchassliar) and claims the title of supreme leader, then goes after the rebellion. the first order has super polished weapons and the rebellion only has skimmers, which are the fancy version of skateboards with nerf guns like they are severely fucked. the first order also has a gun which they use as a battering ram.
when ren sends tie fighters out there, rey and chewie swoop in on the flacon and smash all of em (bless). the ground fire, however, gets almost all the skimmers. poe orders a fall-back, but finn doesn’t listen and goes straight for the cannon, a la poe at the beginning. rose, however, swoops in last second and stops him. when finn asks why, she says that the rebellion will win by saving what they love. she KISSES HIM. then falls into a coma.
all hope is lost until the OG BITCH, THE ONE THE ONLY LUKE SKYWALKER IN THE HOUUUUUUUUSE enters like its nbd. He holds leia, kisses her forehead, gives her a trinket from the falcon (two lil gold dice which i honestly thought were dreidels), then goes ‘bitch i got this’ and just stands in the middle of the battlefield doing the equivalent of the middle finger at ren, who loses it. hux tells him to #chill, and when its revealed that luke survived all that firepower, ren goes down to do it himself.
finn wants to step in, but poe realises its a distraction, and notices that the sparkly bois arent here, so there must be a natural exit somewhere. up above, rey is using the tracker to try and find them. 
outside, we figure out that ren is still a punk bitch and gets beaten by luke repeatedly. luke apologises for letting him down. ren goes on about destroying everything. luke calls him a dumbass. talks about rey being the next Jedi.
the rebels find the exit, but, lo behold, its covered in rocks. what does rey do like a fucking badass? move the damn ass rocks. FINNREY REUNION BITCHES. its cute. its v cute. theres a hug.
ren goes in for the kill. luke doesnt die. he stabs luke in the goddamn chest. luke is ACTUALLY A FORCE PROJECTION SIKE BITCH. luke fades away as the rebels escape on the falcon. the remains of whatever weirdass connection remainging between rey and kylo ignite one last time, but rey literally shuts the falcon door in his face (fuck that bitch)
the first order storm the empty base, hux is bein slim shady as fuck, ren finds the not-dreidels on the ground, which flicker out too.
cut to jedi island! luke is watching the sun go down, he smiles, cut to leia and rey pulling a face, and BAM Luke dies. hes gone. poof. his outfit blows away in the wind.
poe and rey FINALLY meet. ‘im poe dameron’ ‘im rey’ ‘i know’ finn is looking after rose (when finn grabs a cloth you can see the jedi books in the same drawer), and starin right @ her. leia sits next to rey, and they talk about luke dying. it’s not a sad death, rey says, but a peaceful one. it was his time, leia goes on. rey looks around at the twenty ish people who make up the rebellion now, and goes ‘how tf do we do this now’
CUT TO slave animal trainer baby in Space Vegas. kid has the ring and looks up at the stars. is holding a broom like a lightsaber as leia talks about hope as a spark which is slowly growing.
cut back to group shot from inside the falcon.
fin.

HI I JUST GOT BACK FROM A STAR WARS EVENT AND IM ALREADY EXTRA EMOTIONAL BUT I WENT ON INSTAGRAM AND I SAW THIS
MY BRAIN CANT EVEN FUNCTION PROPERLY OKAY THIS IS SO MUCH MORE THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SO HERE ARE SOME THOUGHTS THAT CAREERED THROUGH MY MIND AS I WAS SCREAMING LIKE A MANIAC: (BEWARE OF LONG, INSANELY MESSY RANT POST UNDER THE CUT. AGAIN. FORGIVE ME. I AM VERY VERY TIRED. it’s been a long day.)
- i took quite a while trying to find tina because i couldn’t spot her iconic hairstyle and then i finally found her and i was like oh my GOD she looks like hope van dyne from ant man with those bangs but SHE LOOKS SO ADORABLE ANYWAYS OHMY TGWFHDGASJDHOW
- whY IS IT SO DARK LIkE EVERYONE IS IN DARk CLOTHES EVEN QUEENIE AND THIS SCARES THE SHIT OUT OF ME
- newt looks exactly the same as when we last saw him and i love it
- okay guys seriously can we appreciate tina and queenie wearing BLACK
- queenie’s hair is the bomb.com
- LOOKS LIKE WE’RE GETTING LETA X THESEUS AFTER ALL FOLKS
- IT TOOK ME A FULL MINUTE TO FIND CREDENCE IN THE CROWD BECAUSE DAMN BOI HE LOOKIN GUD
- again, holy shit THE THEME COLOURS OF THIS MOVIE IS KILLING ME I LOVE IT SO DAMN MUCH ASDFGHJKL
- who the fuck is beside credence and half hugging him because i feel like im going to end up shipping them really hard by the end of the movie
- I LOVE HOW EVERYONE IS ARRANGED HERE IT’S PRESUMABLE ACCORDING TO LOVE INTERESTS BECAUSE JAKWEENIE, (HOLY FUCKING SHIT IM SO EXCITED FOR) NEWTINA, AND THE WAY LETA AND THESEUS ARE POSITIONED LOOKS LIKE THEY’RE PRETTY CLOSE
- AND GELLERT AND ALBUS ARE LIKE OPPOSITE EACH OTHER SO IM ASSUMING THAT SYMBOLISES THEYRE BROKEN, DISTANT RELATIONSHIP HOLY FUCK
- thank god leta is pretty far away from newt
- actually it’s so interesting that newt, tina and leta’s positions form a triangle and it symbolises a love triangle between the three of them, at least until theseus steps in
- ALSO THE TRIANGLE FORMED BETWEEN NEWT, TINA AND THESEUS IS ANOTHER LOVE TRIANGLE EYYYY THIS IS INTERESTING
- oh my god yall now i am ike 200% sure we’re getting a newtina kiss in this movie which is fucking brilliant because the sooner that happens, the sooner they get married and the more newtina content will be in store for us
- ok but i have to admit leta looks fucking amazing here like her hair and her dress are like WOWOOWOW
- credence looks so much better than we last saw him he’s dressed all fancy and shit
- gellert looks so goth and swag i cannot he might as well put on a pair of shades (he reminds me of punk eleven from stranger things s2 lol)
- albus looks so fucking done with everyone’s shit
- the way leta and theseus look at each other tho dammit i think i might end up shipping them too
- my god their actions also hint at their relationship status in the movie like for example, tina looks at newt and newt doesnt see this, but when she looks away, newt looks at her and SHE misses it; that probably means that they both love each other but they think the other doesnt feel the same fUCKING HELL THAT’S SO ADORABLE
- i think we’re going to get a lot of these kind of frustrating, “oh my god just say i love you already” moments between newtina in the movie and i dont think im physically or emotionally ready for that
- OKAY I REWATCHED THE CLIP AGAIN AND HOLY FUCKING SHIT I JUST NOTICED THAT TINA HAS DRAPED HERSELF PROTECTIVELY AROUND NEWT’S SUITCASE AND THAT IS OFFICIALLY THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING IVE EVER SEEN (I AM SURE NEWT WOULD AGREE)
- the physical contact between jacob and queenie could mean an already established romantic relationship between them and i am damn sure that it’s what we’ll be seeing in the movie
- so. many. romantic. relationships. i. cannot.
- i swear the way theyre dressed looks like they’re at a funeral and i still can’t get over the fact that queenie is in BLACK wtf
- OKAY BUT THE TRANSITION AND THE SMOKEY DEATHLY HALLOWS THO
- THE TITLE REVEAL HAD ME HOLLERING MY THROAT INSIDE OUT
- words cannot express how insanely excited i am for this movie
- i guess we just upgraded from “FBAWTFT” to “FBTCOG” (well, that’s not the brightest name, but i doubt it’s a very bright movie anyway)
- “fantastic beasts: the crimes of grindelwald”... my first thought about this is that we’re definitely going to see a shitload more badass tina on a literal witchhunt for grindelwald and his followers
- if grindelwald escapes prison, i wonder how he does it and maybe that ‘s how our heroes are brought together again??
- okay istg if tina gets hurt newt is gonna flip shit
- OKAY ISTG IF NEWT GETS HURT TINA IS GONNA CUT SOME BITCHES UP
- i had this idea some time ago that since grindelwald was trying to get credence on his side, what if he was hunting for obscurials to make an army of them so that he’d be feared through the wizarding world, since everyone is so terrified of obscurials
- WHAT IF HE ALREADY HAS A SECRET STASH OF THEM SOMEWHERE AND THAT’S HOW HE BREAKS OUT OF PRISON
- oh my god what if gellert was detained in azkaban? that would make sirius the first person to escape from there since grindelwald’s time
- YALL IF GRINDELWALD GETS TO CREDENCE AND LIKE TORTURES HIM OR USES THE IMPERIUS CURSE ON HIM TO MAKE HIM JOIN HIS ARMY BITCH ISTG I WILL STAB SOMEONE
- OMFG WHAT IF macusa knows that grindelwald has been gathering an army of obscurials, so tina and her fellow aurors were tasked to go on a mission to locate these obscurials first and protect them from his influence, AND ONE ONE MISSION TINA FINDS OUT THAT CREDENCE HAS BEEN LIKE POSSESSED OR SOMETHING AND TRIED TO KILL HER (THIS COULD ACTUALLY BE A PRETTY GOOD START TO THE MOVIE)
- imagine her being so distressed about it that she completely overworks herself on the case
- my god so since newt knew that credence was alive, tina would be like “WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME” and she’s be mad at him and CONFLICT ENSUES MMMM YESSS
- so much sweet angsty conflict gimme all of it
- or if tina just completely breaks down because she couldnt save credence or something NEWT WOULD COMFORT HER AND THERE WE HAVE A POTENTIAL SETUP FOR A KISS
- omg wait isnt there gonna be wizarding circus in this next movie? and that asian girl beside credence was one of the circus performers right??? SO WHAT IF CREDENCE WAS HIDING OUT IN THIS CIRCUS ALL ALONG?? AND HE FELL IN LOVE WITH HER OR SOMETHING??? SHIT I THINK I ALREADY SHIP IT
- what do you think is credence’s role at the circus? is he a performer? what kind? what does he do??
- just LOOKING at newt and tina makes me think of how the first kiss will go. is it a spurr of the moment kiss? a good luck kiss before tina leaves for battle? a grateful, “thank merlin you’re alive” kiss after the battle? a sweet, gentle kiss by a fireplace? a hesitant one where newt makes the first move and pulls back before tina jams her mouth to his?
- i swear we need at least one “i’m so glad you’re safe” reunion embrace between newt and tina okay holy shit
- why do i feel like we are in for a lot of pain, angst and a sprinkle of death in this movie
- but i am also 90% sure gellert will be a way more interesting villain than voldemort will ever be
- okay callum turner looks GOOD as theseus but i will never stop wishing that benedict cumberbatch should have been cast instead
- omg guys the cast is pretty representative this time like we have quite a few POCs
- this movie is going to be SUCh an emotional rollercoaster okay my heart is going to BLEED WITH IT
- it’s going to be deeper, darker, so much more dangerous and i swear i think someone is going to die i am sure of it
- i will emerge from the movie theatre with 9468363649364936400324920347207 new ships and my eyes still pooling with emotion
- wait where’s seraphina
- shit guys if she dies im going to scream
- ok but i really want tina to become like president of macusa or like seraphina’s right hand woman or something,, at least i want her to be the same rank as theseus
- then newt would have bragging rights; “my wife is the president of macusa”
- lmao i brotp ship tina and theseus i can imagine them as drinking buddies
- yall if grindelwald lays a single finger on newt’s case i am going to release all of hell on that man if tina doesn’t do it first
- lmfao i love that everyone is dressed so fancy and then there’s newt who’s just there like “hey guys i’m here in my dusty coat which you’ve seen before because this is the only thing i ever wear” and if that ain’t the most newt thing he’d do
- imagine if recycling clothes is just a bad habit newt has always had, and even after newt and tina get married, the habit is carried alonge, until eventually tina forces him to wear something different every few days because she thinks it’s gross
- imagine adorable husband and wife banters ahh
- also how will newt react to tina’s new hairstyle?
- well dumbledore doesnt look as eccentric as he does in the HP movies hmmm
- and they said he’ll be openly gay in this movie so i’m excited to see how that goes ;))
- we’re in for an interesting reunion of gellert and albus ooooo
well that’s all i have for now it’s like 12am here lmao im exhausted and i havent had dinner. i’m so excited for all the fanfics and fanart im sure some of you are cooking up based on this clip. looking forward to seeing/reading them!!!

dope (2015) good parts: - malcolm's monologue - malcolm flipping the script on that drug dealer/college interviewer - use of white friend to help mastermind a drug operation - fashion & styling (i would have toned it down personally but its okay) - cinematography sorta (we'll get back to that) - a$ap rocky as a drug dealer and ricky harris as a random pound cake consumer - when he points a gun at the bullies bad parts: literally everything else as follows - "we're not like other black kids we are different and theyre bad!! we get made fun of for speaking english right and getting good grades!!" - extremely underdeveloped lesbian character who becomes "one of the boys" (almost like they didnt want to actually write a lesbian character but instead just have a girl who dresses and behaves like a cishet boy so they wouldnt get flack for having all their female characters be sexual interests) - the shitty narration at the beginning that disappears at the end of the movie - random edits and effects at the beginning that also dont follow through to the rest of the movie - everybody in the movie says nigga in every sentence as if they speak aave but no one in the entire film except the drug dealers speak aave - "we have a punk band called oreo" (i physically cringed) - the entire scene where chanel iman makes malcolm think she is gonna fuck him... they coulda skipped the obnoxious games and just had her steal his drugs without me having to see her give him bedroom eyes for 5 min and waste my time - that whole hectic scene where that boy shoots himself in the leg and they show 5 different viewpoints of the same scene kinda like in the end of jackie brown but nothing was really fucking happening and it didnt really do much but help the drug op - white dude's CONTINOUS use of nigga and how they give him a pass... the slaps were funny but if they really wanted to display that they could have done a lot better - zoe kravitz's character and the useless prom storyline - cinematography. yall KNOW i love warm sunshine lighting, bright colors and neons and i always feel you cant go wrong with it but damn this movie did... the shit was so fucking bright it was harsh. like the main boy has a very angular face and dark skin and they keep blasting that sunlight on his right side and it made it so you could barely ever see half his face because of how damn bright that light was and how it did not complement his bone structure. on top of that every fucking room, no matter if it was an office with the blinds drawn or a damn shed, was bathed in this insane sunlight and it made it hard to decipher the mood of the room. i think good examples of total sunlight in film indoors are sam l jackson's apartment in jackie brown and the motel in bottle rocket. the sunlight in those movies works and doesnt make it hard to see any subjects, no matter what their skin color. - malcolm's actor. i dont know if the director was like "never open your mouth while speaking and make sure you mumble words to the point where the audience cant understand you and drag out your sentences" but when you watch the scenes with him and zoe kravitz it is apparent how awful his speaking is. you only hear him talk in the monologue. everywhere else i was literally annoyed when he would talk because he didnt open his mouth and i was like TALK DELIVER THE LINES
