Aegon Really Went "and You Get A Car, And You Get Car, And You Get A Car" To The Small Folk

did not expect tomshiv to make me cry a little…

ok minor geek things that we all need to pay attention to and praise include:

a) the END CREDITS ART oh my goodness it’s beautiful and every time I see it I feel like I’ve just finished a movie. legitimately so colourful and rich and creative 100/10

b) the score!! bear mcreary coming in clutch with that score, and he’s worked on the walking dead, outlander, agents of shield, all these other video games, and has won emmys for it— AND has worked with my king my lord my saviour HOZIER (please please rick I’m begging you to include a hozier song in season 2 PLEASEEEE) so you know he’s legit— so that they got him on this is amazing and he also nailed it as always, the score really adds to the suspense

They fixed her accent. Thank fuck.

me @ y/n when they do something i’d never do:

like babe this isn’t us ?? get it together

when i catch this munch its OVER

It is repeatedly emphasized in the show that the process of minining kalkite is invasive and risks destroying Ghorman’s biosphere, that the Empire had sought other options before committing to strip mining Ghorman, and that because Ghorman is a prominent Colonies world it would take time to turn public opinion against the Ghor - multiple years! - before they could begin. The entire point is that fascists can’t simply leave well enough alone - to get what they want they will eagerly manufacture consent for genocide. The Empire carefully manages public opinion to spin the massacre as a years-long terrorist uprising being put down, and it’s only Mon Mothma’s speech in the Senate that is able to blow a hole in that narrative.

This is just basic basic basic narrative analysis, but unfortunately we are dealing with Star Wars fans so that is not in their toolbox
