i mean basically space hitler was like “hey mayor, how’s about i blow up your city? people screaming, homes shattering like eggshells, flaming babies shooting out of the wreckage – or you can just hand over a couple-three folks i have a beef with” and lando was like “oh my fuck do NOT bomb my city what the shit” and space hitler was like “haha now you are a villain” and lando was like “i’m gonna need so much therapy”

i honestly feel for the man and never considered him a bad guy. vader had hostages.

the idea that anyone might Blame Lando shocks me to my very core

Part of the problem is we never actually see civilians suffering, so the threat doesn’t seem real, similar to in episode 1 where we never see the negative impact of the planet being occupied.

Also, imagine it from Lando’s POV. He’s settled down after a rebellious criminal period and become a responsible adult TM and gone into local politics. Then a guy from his past rosks up and is like “dude you have to hide me from the cops!”

Lando: sure Han, I’ll hide you from the cops–

*Darth Vader theme starts playing in the distance*

Lando: wait

Lando: Why do I hear boss music?

Lando is a good man in a bad situation. He had people to look after and did what he could. Even with Vader changing the deal on him.

On this blog we love and respect Lando Calrissian.
