re: My Star Wars movie review: male white folks are bad

Actually, the women (outside of Ray) get everyone killed in that movie, and the minorities fail in every part of their missions. The women act with hubris and despite dressing down Poe for his mistakes, make the exact same errors due to their own hubris. The women in this movie are largely incompetent. Even Ray fails in what she sets out to do (turn Kylo-Ren to the light side).

I think you're learning the wrong lessons from the movie.

It's all about hubris, and subverting "star wars" cliches. If someone ignores information or advice because of their hubris, they get f&%ked and people die. If someone takes a traditional "Star Wars" approach to solving a problem, they will get f%$ked and people die.

"This will not go the way you think." That is the core message in this movie. One can debate the merits of this message and whether or not that makes it a bad movie, but let's at least have that debate once we realize what this movie is actually about.
