I think one of my favorite stories I’ve ever heard Mark Hamill tell is the one about how the first time he heard the score for A New Hope he got sort of jokingly offended because it seemed like every other character had a specific song for them and he didn’t and John Williams just looked at him and said “…The main theme is your song” and Mark was like “WHAT OMG” like he didn’t actually understand before that moment that he was the protagonist.
Plus, since Harrison was a traditional leading man, and I hadn’t read the screenplay, I thought he was the star of the film, and that I was Bucky to his Captain America, that I was the kid sidekick. Because in the screen test that we did, I was kind of annoying and he was so cool. But I’ll never forget, I remember the chair I was sitting in, the one-bedroom apartment looking out at the beach looking at the sundown of the ocean, and I couldn’t believe it. I was thrown for a minute. I thought, “Wait a minute.” Because on the front page, it said “The Adventures of Luke Starkiller.” [Lucas soon changed the last name.] I said, “Wait a second. I thought I was Luke. Oh, Harrison must have been Luke.” I started reading it and then I got to where they’re describing me and I said, “Wait a second. I’m Luke!” I didn’t think I was the star of the movie, I thought it was just from my point of view.
dorians a nice guy but i cant think about dai without wondering to myself how people would perceive sera and vivienne if a sliver of the care and love that went into characterizing dorian went into THEIR writing instead
I love this video so much. I see people in the comments raging over not giving your child wasabi (I don’t disagree with this) and I can’t help wonder if we’re seeing the same video. The toddler looks and sounds like they’ve been crying for a bit, the mom asked if they want to try it (probably after telling the kid no a few times, think Cars 2 and Madder thinking it’s ice cream) and accepted when they said no.
The child then whines for wasabi and Mom tells her to smell it first. Good job Mom, giving the kid ANOTHER chance to say no before putting the smallest amount possible on their tooth, not the tongue but something that the tongue can avoid touching if it’s too much and mom needs to intervien.
This is a great teaching moment because that child will know the intense heat of wasabi (which dissipates quickly) and will either like it or not.
Either way no permanent damage has been done and the child has learned a lesson about wasabi.
