Pick three gifs that you can relate too.
*Note: It doesn't have to be just three gifs but we have to draw a line somewheres.
Important Note: These gifs obviously do not belong to me. Although, I thank the ones who created these (and other) gifs, so that I and many others my use them.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to watch or keep up with rottmnt, but I can state one thing, the animation throughout the series has remained superb. The movement and colors just pull your eyes to the screen. Forgive me, I can't find the right words to describe the feelings these beautiful scenes give me, not to mention the work of all the people who come together to bring this series to life.

Off the record, I’ve had something on my mind recently.
I’m a small fan of Star Wars, K? Like, it’s not my most favorite thing ever, but I watched the original three movies enough when I was younger to have an amount of emotional investment in it. But I’ve never once actually interacted with its fandom.
And you know what? Honestly? I’m kind of glad I hadn’t.
Because I look at its fandom now, with the newer sequels coming out, the launch of the new EA game ‘Fallen Order’ in less than a month...and most of the people I’ve seen are absolutely frothing at the mouth. And it’s honestly so ridiculous, especially since this has been happening since the freaking Prequels.
That’s not to say that every fan is like that. I’ve also seen a fair share of fans out there who, like myself, want to enjoy this franchise for what it is. But the flip side of that is, there are even MORE fans who carry that mindset, and decide to boycott whatever doesn’t meet their own personal standards. So lemme be upfront with y’all out there who carry that ‘it’s not for me so I’m gonna ruin it for everyone else because you all have to hate it too’ mindset;
The world does NOT revolve around you. Cause honestly? ‘Fallen Order’ looks s i c k in my opinion and I genuinely hope it turns out to be as good as it seems. ‘The Rise Of Skywalker’, while it might not turn out to be the best film ever, still gives me goosebumps.
So there. I’ve just incurred the wrath of the SW fandom by saying those sentences together. And I don’t really care tbh. I’m getting far too tired of drama to care about what other people say.
Just let people enjoy things man. Me personally? I’m not as big of a fan of the sequel movies as I’d like, but that’s FINE. Because that doesn’t mean I hate them, that doesn’t mean I’m going to boycott anyone who DOES like or love the movies. Yes, please do think critically of what you’re watching, but there’s a fine line between ‘critical thinking’ and just ‘frothing at the mouth blind hate’ and ‘making up s*** just to rally people to my cause’. Think critically. That doesn’t mean ‘hate this thing’, it means taking a NEUTRAL stance to look at both sides of an argument, and coming to your own conclusions.
Let people enjoy the Sequels if they do. Let people enjoy the Prequels if they do. Let people enjoy the games if they do. Just let people bloody enjoy things and don’t throw fits at them when the disagree with you. This doesn’t even have to apply solely to Star Wars, with ANYTHING out there. As long as they’re not hurting other people, just let others enjoy things. Just be a kind person ok?...don’t be a bloody dick.
I haven't been this excited for anything stars wars in a long time!!!
