"rebel moon is just a bunch of disjointed character intros with no substance---"
[loud fart noise in your face]
Anyway, what connects all of the characters together is Honor, a major theme of the movie. It's the reason that These People In Particular are all chosen, beyond their reputations or even their skill sets (which are still important).
What does your personal honor look like? How do you uphold it? What do you do when you lose your honor? Can you ever truly regain it once it's lost? Can you find redemption, or is revenge the closest thing you can get? Can revenge and honor ever be the same?
After her indoctrination and service in the Imperium, Kora deserts, but it's for her survival, not the recovery of her honor. That's the journey she's currently on in the defense of her new home and the people there, triggered by the conflict of choosing her personal safety or rescuing Sam from further assault. She found the line of her honor and refused to ignore it any longer.
Gunnar placed personal gain over maintaining a united front about the grain surplus. His dishonorable actions lead to Sindri getting killed and their village placed under the Imperium's thumb. Noble's culpability aside, Gunnar feels responsible for his role in all this and seeks to make amends. It's why he's the only one who jumps in to protect the child from potential collateral damage in Nemesis' fight with Harmada. He is transitioning from being a selfish character to being more selfless, defining what he wants his personal honor to be.
Speaking of Nemesis, she is the most samurai-coded character here, complete with their version of honor. Her failure at being able to protect her children drives her to defend others, and shoulder the burden of killing once a peaceful resolution cannot be reached. It's why she has an entire conversation with Harmada, to understand what drives her, to attempt to find common ground and shared empathy. It's why she fights first with naked steel, to try to convince Harmada to back off, to value her own life, and it's for the lives of others that she finally ignites her blades when she cannot. Nemesis is not an emotionless cyborg who assassinates in cold blood, but one who is deeply attuned to her pain and that of others.
Tarak is a prince, and yet we learn he's nowhere near his home or his people. Whether he's failed them or abandoned them (or feels like he has) is still a mystery, but we still know that he is an honorable man, regarding his servitude to Hickman with utter seriousness. Tarak will honor his word and any agreements once given, including a life debt, and his connection with nature both demonstrates and resonates his nobility. He even has the whole "honor them" speech to Millius, revealing that he knows the guilt of surviving when all the friends you swore to fight beside are now gone.
General Titus fought proudly for the Imperium until his honor wouldn't allow him to stomach their methods. The price for that included his men's lives, his station, and his dignity. Unable to protect any of it including his ideals, he turns to drink and hopes fighting as a gladiator to the death does the rest. And yet, he cannot bring himself to just lay down and die. He dwells on his mistakes but does not succumb to them. The kernel of honor was still within him, and it's no wonder Kora and the other idealists at her back were able to ignite it again.
Jimmy is from an order of robotic knights, who all laid down their arms in dishonor and disgrace when the Imperium's royal family was murdered. He embodies old and forgotten chivalry, and in case you missed that, they got Anthony Hopkins to voice him. These knights haven't fought back since, even when they are attacked---and yet Jimmy retaliates to protect Sam before himself, finding something honorable to fight for again.
Darrian Bloodaxe has his honor as a rebellion leader tested and rightly concludes that the revolution is meaningless if they will not come to the aid of the most defenseless among them. (But he and his men die anyway!) Indeed, that is the point. Hedging your bets and picking your battles might be the smartest option, but it's not the most noble or honorable. Honor, in case you haven't noticed, often demands a choice and a price.
And yes, even our villains share in this theme in their own twisted ways. Kai is a mirror to Gunnar, but where Gunnar is growing into being a less opportunistic person, Kai is deliberately shrouding his true intentions from the get-go. At Kai's betrayal, Kora demands after his honor, to which Kai dryly replies, "What did happen to it." It isn't a question. Kai long ago saw honor as a death sentence and chose survival over everything, and in an ironic twist, is killed once he tries to tempt Gunnar into choosing his own survival over Kora's. Like Kora before him, Gunnar finds his line that he will not cross as well as what he fights for.
Finally, there's Atticus Noble, who wields the honorable memory of the Slain King and his dishonorable death as a blunt weapon against all that isn't the Imperium, much like his cane. The one time the Imperium was gracious, and they were betrayed for it. Never again, and everyone will suffer for this humiliation until the Imperium's honor is restored---and it never will be. Because honor is not the point; conquest and control is. Revenge is the point.
Literally all of this is in the film btw. But then, I wasn't fast-forwarding or looking down at my phone the whole time or playing Paint By Numbers: Star Wars Edition. I was actually watching the goddamn movie and letting it tell me its story. And then I reflected on it afterward. Whooooaaa!

is the exarch a black mage! I mean he’s like. He was a paladin when I did a trust with him so I bet he can do Many Things (old man) but he was doing black mage activities with me and that made me happy. and definitely did not help ch’ari feel less embarrassed at being praised like five times in a row.

The Great Sage War of 2023 has been lost and won (courtesy of @antidotefortheawkward​). Yet in the aftermath, I thought it might be fun to ask which of these living simians found in China people think would provide the best base species for everyone’s favorite Monkey King!
So while I might be missing a few monkeys, the options are:
1. Rhesus Macaque:
Tumblr media
2. Tibetan Macaque:
Tumblr media
3. Stump-Tailed Macaque:
Tumblr media
4. Formosan Rock Macaque:
Tumblr media
5. Assam Macaque:
Tumblr media
6. Northern Pig-Tailed Macaque:
Tumblr media
7. Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey:
Tumblr media
8. Gray Snub-Nosed Monkey:
Tumblr media
9. Black Snub-Nosed Monkey:
Tumblr media
10. Myanmar Snub-Nosed Monkey:
Tumblr media
11. François’ Langur:
Tumblr media
12. White-Headed Langur:
Tumblr media
13. Phayre’s Leaf Monkey:
Tumblr media
14. Capped Langur:
Tumblr media
15. Shortridge’s Langur:
Tumblr media
16. Nepal Gray Langur:
Tumblr media
China has an amazing diversity of monkeys which makes choosing a favorite near impossible. Still, that does mean that any imagination of the Monkey King has an incredible living pool to draw from.

(Last one before I also go to Sleepy Town Junction) Have you seen the mod for a Date Night in Stardew Valley? It can add a bunch of dates outside of Heart Events that your respective spouse can ask you out on. And nothing beats a nice night spent together in the house, cook dinner together, watch some tv and maybe dance in the kitchen a bit, you know, a dance better than the Flower Dance. Or maybe the farmer comes home and wakes up their husband from the desk after he overworks himself.
Hi! Steward Thylak is heading to sleepy town junction - and I just woke up, and I'm catching up on what I missed.
(My day is starting so keep the asks going! Been loving it so far! Even if it asks about world building stuff!)
Thylak said - "I had that downloaded but never got around to playing it"
While I myself - never downloaded that mod before.
I know we would both have to look into it to see if we can even make it compatible with our Mod - but also see how it works. We are 'verrrry' picky with mods - especially since when writing Ingo and Emmet we want to be respectful of the character.
That will most likely be filed away with the - 'Things to do later/misc' section.... There's a lot to do... <_<
