Sorry, I didn’t find it overt. Is it so hard to accept that someone can have a different opinion?

It was literally part of the dialogue of the movie. I'm not talking about a subtle undertone. I'm talking about a scripted scene.

Sure. If I told you I never saw any hints or overt themes of racism at all in To Kill A Mockingbird, would you accept that as a valid opinion?

Comparing Star Wars to Kill a Mockingbird is a little out of place.

I get what you are saying. I do.

But I turn my brain off during Star Wars. I went into it for a popcorn flick and I got what I wanted. I’m sorry you didn’t get the movie you wanted. I wish they had made that one instead.

I thought it was hilarious haha

I get that a lot of Star Wars super fans are really invested into the myth of Luke. I understand completely how they can be upset over this movie. I just personally don’t care that much about Luke Skywalker.

The melt for this movie is amazing. I saw it again last night, like it even more and will see it a few more times I’m sure.

I see better shite in the toilet every morning than this movie

I cannot understand how you can like this garbage. Take out the sjw push. It was just a jumble of stupidity

Let's talk about the competent women
Two concepts so ridiculous that they could only exist in a made up science fiction universe where people battle with swords made of light and talk to ghosts and move things through the air like Harry Potter.

I know your question is directed to someone else but I can answer for myself since we talked earlier. In general...

1. Space Battles

2. Daisey Ridley

3. Adam Driver

4. Cool vehicles and ships

5. Humor worked for me except for Finn parts

6. Mark Hamill was fantastic

7. Preatorian guard fight

8. Music

9. Snoke asserting himself more (I didn’t like killing him this early)

10. Kylo Ren stopping acting like Vader and just becoming him

11. Luke training sequence

12. Luke displaying weakness

Let me say it for him:

Don’t really have time to go into detail right now but i didn’t care much for most of the casino stuff, the stuff with the animals was the rathtar scene of this movie to me and while I like the idea of Leia using the force I don’t like the way they executed it, it looked really fricking weird. I liked most everything else, I’ll try to come back and go into detail on that in a bit

This just means that the feminist pop culture brainwashing has worked on you and you think a bunch of silly girls commanding a resistance fleet against one of the most powerful and evil entities in the galaxy is actually plausible.

It’s amazing how your obsession with me is growing. It won’t be long before it becomes sexual.

I actually envy simple minded and oblivious people like you. It’s got to be easier going through life like that.

It really is actually. I used to get all up in arms about all sorts of shite and it really got me nowhere. Then I really embraced being a Nhilist and stopping caring.

In all seriousness, I think the article written is horseshite. That’s the best part about this: I’m on your side here.

I just wish they had made the movie you wanted. Maybe then I could enjoy that one too (I would have) and not be so mentally exhausted over the mere concept of enjoying a movie.

I'm not discussing star wars with a guy that doesn't really give a shite about Luke Skywalker
