Quite disappointed in #SoloAStarWarsStory. I feel like it's by far the weakest of the new Star Wars films. Spoilers ahead.

The comic relief is a robot who is basically a mockery of feminism and activist culture.

Then you've got a land of mute, scared brown folks who are just exotic, gritty, background decoration.

They try and be surprising by making Enfys Nest, the leader of the pirates a young woman of colour (played by Erin Kellyman who I definitely want to see more of!) but she doesn't really do anything. Han is the one who comes up with and executes the plan to help fund the rebellion

The movie is trying to play with themes of resisting oppression and fighting for justice by showing the origins of the Rebel Alliance and having a droid uprising but it's just sort of wedged in as an awkward side note instead of being a more important plot point.

People die in films, and cheap deaths aren’t limited to ‘people of colour’.

The first character to die was Rio. And I wouldn't call them main if the movie got rid of them that quickly.

False, the first character to die is the four-armed alien played by Jon Favreau (Rio?).

Your need to politicize everything is inane and repulsive! I've read through your Twitter (regretfully,) and the vitriol sputum that permeates all of your tweets confirms for me a number of things about you: mainly that you HATE men while hiding behind the buzzword of progressive

I didn't see this tweet when Admiral Ackbar died offscreen without any acknowledgement. You don't even know Vals name either.

Oh you mean just like they did with Admiral Ackbar?

Or even simpler, Rio(4-armed alien) The fact that she doesnt mention him means she wants to commit genocide against all alien species. Freaking human supremicist

They barely acknowledged or grieved Han's death in The Force Awakens but that's cool right?

Do you EVER stop virtue signalling? It will be a sad day if black woman ever forget how much you cry crocodile tears for them.

#CULTURALAPPROPRIATION Seems pretty racist to change the way you talk when discussing a black actress/character. Btw, the fact that she was killed in about 4 minutes means she's NOT a main character lol. I don't think you know what a main character is.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better.

she's not a main character if you watched the film. She's a SIDE character to Woody...just like Chewbacca
