They’ve been saying that only misogynists hate The Last Jedi and The Farce Awakens. They thought EVS’s Soylo shirt was harassment. This is clearly all about an excuse to attack fans. Kellie Marie Tran was most likely driven off by asians calling her a race traitor but Lucasfilm is using this as a pretext to trash people.

I just can’t like something where a good character is intentionally made shitty because a bad director wants to try to prove what a brilliant writer he is. Every decision made in TLJ was a bad one.

Some people think that she deleted her account because they've started filming Ep 9 and Disney used this opportunity to do a "Cisbusters defense" as diversion while they're getting rid of KK.

It doesn’t though. It emasculated the character purely because Rian is a progressive and an edgelord.

No. Rian was attempting to be hip and zeitgeist. Star Wars is about archetypes. Luke is not a man who betrays his friends. That’s why Mark called him Jake.

No, Rian was attempting to actually make a film and not just have Luke be Obi-Wan 2.0 or the same exact Luke Skywalker you saw 30 years ago before he trained Kylo and before Kylo killed his pupils and destroyed his temple.
It's the time gap that upsets you and many others. There could have been three movies on the fall of Lukes new temple and Kylos rise but there werent. Star Wars saga skips around.

By subverting shit to the point of being completely unlikable shit? There's a limit on how many "You thought the plot was going that way, PSYCH! It's going the other way!" moments you can have in a movie before it turns boring. Then we have a completely retarded and unneeded subplot.

TFA, Rogue one, Solo and TLJ are all different kids of bad. If you try to defend them you're a victim of marketing, because star wars was never meant to be mass-produced besides merch or whatever. Even the disney EU reboot is empty and second rate.
the bottom line is, these disney films will never be looked at the same way Lucas' films are. It's a simple fact. Any positive narrative built around them is artificial and paid for. Fake auteurs like Rian will not get any goodboy points for subverting expectations and neither will people like J.J. for shitting out pandering retro trash. Disney (kathleen) could have proved everyone that they care, had they used Lucas' story treatments starting with EP7. Instead, they assumed that they know whats best for the fans instead of Lucas. That was their first (and worst) mistake and everything that has followed since is a consequence of that fuck-up. You are LITERALLY a cuck of the highest order if you defend new star wars movies. 👏 There 👏 is 👏 no 👏 way 👏 around 👏 this 👏 fact 👏.
the only way star wars can be redeemed is if we go back in time or if Disney outsources graphic novel adapations of the Lucas sequels to dark horse.

The star wars franchise was already dead with The Farce Awakens and rogue one which both had death stars.
Rian's Skywalker does exactly what everyone wanted (him to take on the bad guys by himself) except in the only possible way he could have won

But Rian failed. Nothing he did was satisfying. Luke as a drunk old man was something no one wanted to see. Having him stumble into an unsatisfying and peculiar death by projection isn’t some noble end. The only reason you like it is because it is unpopular and you define art by staking out a minority position as opposed to actually having any sense of aesthetics.
And you can’t argue that there was a ‘problem’ with Luke that Rian had to solve. The EU wrote about Luke - even about him falling to the Dark Side - for thirty years. There was an established way to age the character and have him be a mentor. Rian just wanted to prove he was clever and ‘deconstruct’ Star Wars, because he realized he couldn’t write a proper Star Wars movie. That’s why he’s staging his new trilogy in a completely different galaxy. He’s writing his own shit with Star Wars slapped across it, and he is a poor writer.

Everyone wanted a mature Luke who succeeded in his endeavors in bringing back the jedi and restoring order to the Republic. Not a total fucking failure for feminist propaganda or the same Luke from 30 years ago. You call yourself a SW fan yet can't wrap your head around the lore of the setting or the whole point of the first 3 films? Everything they did was reduced to nothing and made pointless because it was from the bigot generation. Are you seriously too brain damaged to understand this?

So much for him being /ourguy/ like based Shatner. I mean honestly, I can get him being defensive about Rose since he has called himself a feminist before, but generalizing and attacking his fanbase over it thinking all SW fans were trolling her over it? The bullshit she got wasn't even that notable other than some stupid memegenerator-tier pictures. And now Rian is riding this sympathy train to get virtue signalling points with the moralfags. Honestly her drop from social media is way too convenient after the recent Solo flop. What better way to put people against the fans and the boycotts than creating a "tragic" controversy to garner sympathy from the masses?

Only literal autists were really offended at the #GetALifeNerds thing. I mean, Mark has a point. What do these retards think they're gonna achieve by bullying some random gook? Sure, her character may have sucked, but she doesn't write disney wars. This entire thing seems like a massive orchestrated falseflag to me. Any and all hate should be focused exclusively towards the main guys: Kasdan and his brainlet son, Rian, J.J, Kathleen, Iger, possibly even the (((storygroup))). Bullying actors/actresses is absolutely useless lol, they're just tools.

It clearly is. I hardly saw anyone bullying her as much as they ridiculed Johnson. Anyone who was actually harassing this mediocre actress were either just teens, autists or indifferent trolls who just wanted a target. But it all seems so artificial. Like it was planned. The hashtag doesn't bother me, what bothers me is what this could mean for Mark. It looked like he was agreeing with the fans and even taking jabs at Rian, but now, he'll probably see anyone who mocks the Last Jedi or even the (((storygroup))) as bigots not worth agreeing with and he may even side with Disney just to make sure he isn't associated with the retarded trolls. Maybe I'm just being overly pessimistic, but I really hope I'm wrong.

I'll give credit where credit is due, the actress looks a bit cuter in real life then in the movie. Its like the movie went out of her way to make her look as pudgy and annoying as possible. The movie wanted to make her look as blobish and uniformed as fuck.
>>17293
Its a common tactic now. You find the "worse" example you can find and try to pose that as the "norm". Now with twit-shit and shillbook being a thing, you can easily find a super autist and yes it as a starwman. Hell you can even make your own and casual norms will never even think it might be fake, despite knowing that bot accounts exist.

Which is why I only ever mocked the character rather than the actress honestly. Disney went out of its way to make her look as fat and ugly as possible to the point of giving her that stupid haircut.

Blame JJ you fucking idiot. He is the one that had Kylo betray Luke and talked about Snoke turning him and the search for lost fucking luke in episode VII
Rian literally did nothing wrong in VIII. Nothing. He essentially made it somewhat more of Lukes movie than Rey's in places where Luke is the one who has to actually overcome something. Like in Empire Strikes Back.
Luke literally has character developlment and it parallels Anakin and youre spitting in Rian's face. He did nothing wrong and all the normies ate up JJ's shit and hated what he did.

I'm honestly not surprised by Hamill's statements. After the PR disaster that he caused prior and during the Last Jedi's release, the Mouse had to put his testicles in a vice grip. Since he signed on the for the contract before Disney involvement and can't get out he is trapped.
Notice how his statements have made a 180 degree turn towing the party line after the release of TLJ compared to before.

Its not the first time he's virtue signaled honestly. Like when some fans hated TFA, or when he used Joker for political commentary. He probably genuinely is going against this fan with "GetALifeNerds" shit because he thinks its a bunch racist sexists making Rose Tico jokes. Not to mention his twitter is pretty much the antithesis of everything that is William Shatner's. Hell George Takei would be proud of him. I never really gave a shit about Hamill's political opinions, its how he's acting since Kelly's ragequit that's bugging me. I really hope you're right and that its just Disney manipulating him. But worries me more is the 300k likes he's getting for said tweets. If Disney's aim was to use him to garner support and sympathy for Kennedy/Rian/JJ/Lucasfilm, then it seems it working.
