None of the stuff you are worried about was even in the movie.

So where does the complaint come from? I'm not a big Star Wars fan, but wasn't land written as a cheesy poonhound in the old movies?

I own all star wars films from episode 4-6.

I stomached episode 1-3 and thought the Return of the Sith was good. I do not own them.

These last 2 episodes have been nothing but a break from everything star wars since it's inception as I've watched the former episodes a bazillion times to know.

Rogue One was exceptional and enjoyed it as a stand alone.

Solo was a good movie but to make a character "pan-sexual" for a message is stupid and unnecessary.

You know, if you make a shitty movie and people point out its a shitty movie, calling them misogynistic racist homophobic bigots isn't exactly going to make them want to go see the next movie in the franchise. Even if its not a shitty movie.

Shockingly most of us don't like to be slurred in such a way. It might, just might, not be the best marketing strategy to use if ytou piss on your fans and tell them its raining.

Further evidence of the collective confusion that is being sown by these Prog/Leftist fools. It's so frickin crazy how few people are truly afflicted with real gender issues based on medical science.., we're talking instances where there is absolute physical evidence related to genitalia developmental abnormalities. If the Hollywood/entertainment industry did a true representation of this segment of society we would have less than one of these characters for every 1000 movies made, same be could be said for TV shows.

except.. none of that was in the movie.

there was a droid who thought lando was in love with "her". #droidrights

quote:

1) lead female/"chick-fu"

---

She is simply too powerful.

Her character has had zero development and really has nowhere to go.

She was interesting in TFA, but they couldn’t allow the female protagonist to show any weakness in TLJ, ruining a character.

She already beat the big bad twice and was never even remotely tempted by the dark side.

She is boring.

2) interracial romance

---

You talking about the forced “love” between Finn and female Jar Jar?

quote:

---

3) asian girl with no real ability on a "capitalist greed is evil" arc

---

Just an awful story arc that was completely useless and existed solely for anti-capitalist tropes.

4) criticism of the military industrial complex

---

That is nothing new.

quote:

5) implied that the empire/republic (as perceived by right wing snowflakes) was the U.S and that the rebels are the equivalent of muslim terrorist groups today.. and it celebrated their victory

---

That is the first I’ve heard of this.

I’ve only ever heard the anti-white angle since they only ever show stormtroopers as whites people, which does their characterization a disservice.

They are speciesists, not racists. They are strongly pro-human.

You forgot about the “women power rah rah” moments with ole purple hair and Leia. Not to mention that Poe was absolutely right in attacking and destroying the dreadnaught since it’s “mini-Death Star cannons” would destroy every ship since the women forgot to put gas in their tanks (the 2nd worst alteration to the SW universe, ahead of midiclorians, but behind using light speed as a super weapon).

I think theres a canon reason for this tbh. We'll know more after the next film. She isnt the only abnormally strong force user. She is a little boring.

Seems kind of one sided there was a rey/finn thing too.

It was terrible. They already nailed the topic when they showed that both sides are making money from war.

But thats not true. One of the main characters was a storm trooper and is a black guy

I’m pretty sure that the sexuality of a StarWars character is far down the list of things I give a rats arse about

Agreed. These SJW fools should stop forcing it into everything.

Whoa there. The only black guy who is a storm trooper got "woke" and rebelled. It is a characterization. Might as well have a side story arc of a ghetto space station that deals in drugs.

If you are going to throw in race and gender politics in the films, then every race and gender actor is a question to be asked.
