Why don't you listen to other people?

Why don't I listen to you and your fellow sock puppets ? Because you talk a lot of shit that's why.

Star Wars is a fantasy, and Rey is fantasy in that she can do so much.

I dunno why I find Luke, Leia, Han and Vader so compelling while I find Rey, Finn, Poe and Kylo Ren SO FUCKING UNLIKEABLE.

reply

[–] ProgsReturn (2081) 4 years ago

Because the movie doesn't give us a reason to like them.

[–] [deleted] 4 years ago

And because today's "writers" can't write for SHIT.

[–] cyguration (3951) 3 years ago

Not only that, they aren't trying to write compelling characters.

It's about inculcating a message: women are superior, men are inferior.

A couple of generations from now that's the only kind of media that will exist in the West, and most people will find it "normal" by that point. Seeing women beat up men on the regular with her black sidekick/sometimes boyfriend and her Mexican lesbian girlfriend whose adopted son they raise while dismantling the patriarchy will be seen as normal fanfare at that point and no one will question it.

A lot of times you need a strong starting point and then you just slowly boil the frog until it's cooked. Star Wars Sequel Trilogy is basically turning the dial up on the stove.

Not if I can help it, myself and many millions of already normal people.

cyguration Woke people are not the majority despite what they would have you believe and wokeness is nothing more than a fad that is already starting to die off. I just don't see that scenario happening, those future generations you mentioned are already turning against the woke millennial generation as we speak. Don't listen to MSM, they are liars.

[–] ProgsReturn (2081) 3 years ago

Yup. No story arcs in the Disney trilogy. Everyone ends up the same as they started. Worryingly still is that both Solo and Rogue One had better character development.

reply

[–] cyguration (3951) 3 years ago

My biggest gripe with Solo was that they didn't hire Anthony Ingruber to play a young Solo.

Countless people begged Disney to hire this guy. His little YouTube video contained more charisma and magnetism than the guy they ended up going with. I felt the Solo story wasn't bad, but the guy playing Han was just a charisma vacuum, and nothing about his performance was memorable.

But it's sad, that even with a movie I'll never watch again, I liked it better than the sequel trilogy. That's how awful the sequel trilogy is.

And you're right, even with the completely messy script that felt like three movies in one with Rogue One, there was still better character stories and resolution than Rey's space ransack of straight white males.

There's a lot of reasons to criticize Rey, but her size isn't one of them.

After all, look at Yoda 😜 "Size matters not"

Yoda is not a weak human, he is an alien that spent hundreds of years training and he doesn't hand-to-hand anyone, he uses a saber or force powers.

Plus he goes into hiding.

reply

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 3 years ago

Isn't this a far away galaxy? Isn't it within the realm of possibility that in that galaxy, humanoids evolved where females have much more dense and stronger muscles than males. So while the females may be smaller in appearance, their more dense musculature puts them on equal footing with males more bulky, but less compact body.

This is science fiction after all. We can use our imagination to explain things if the story doesn't come right out and say it directly.

reply

[–] kuatorises (7467) 3 years ago

Can a man shoot lighting out of his hands or perform other Jedi/Sith feats? Yoda is 2 feet tall. You comprehend these people are super heroes/villains, right? What a dumb argument.

reply

[–] triplea (3577) 3 years ago

Yoda is an alien species, not a weak human female.

Why can't you man-babies just say, "I don't like this move" instead of coming up with this "logic" that shoots yourself in the foot? No one takes your criticism seriously.

[–] triplea (3577) 3 years ago

I don't like this movie and I'm telling you why.

If you don't like it, don't eat it.

reply

[–] kuatorises (7467) 3 years ago

"and I'm telling you why."

And I'm telling you why your reasons are shit. Because she's a woman? Small? LOL, are you 5 years old? Everyone else can do these feats, but Rey can't? That makes no sense. NONE. Your opinion has no merit.

reply

[–] triplea (3577) 3 years ago

Literally no-one can do what Rey does, that's why she is unrealistic.

And she is only written that way because Kennedy wanted 'the real hero' to be female since she is a clueless feminist pig.

reply

[–] kuatorises (7467) 3 years ago

Qui Gon figured out how to become a Force ghost, Luke show is how to project himself across the universe, Palpatine CAME BACK TO LIFE - these were all firsts. You sound foolish.

reply

[–] triplea (3577) 3 years ago

They weren't firsts, in fact we see rey/kylo projecting before we see Luke do it.

Rey is a feminist pig daydream.

reply

[–] kuatorises (7467) 3 years ago

You're wrong. Rey and Ren were able to do what they did because of their connection: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Force-bond. That wasn't Force Projection like Luke was doing. They were only able to do that with each other.

Luke figured out how to project himself anywhere. No connection to anyone needed: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Force_projection

reply

[–] triplea (3577) 3 years ago

That's crazy to think an old, long term Jedi master with access to the complete Jedi texts could figure such a thing out!

Certainly less believable than a marvel superhero invented by pigs and board room clowns being in SW.

Palpatine is an old human and Vader, a crippled human.

Luke's not an alien. Qui Gon, Obi Wan, and Mace Windu aren't aliens. Neither is Leia.

Yoda is puny. So is Baby Yoda.
