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

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.

The move is called “Solo” ... it’s about Han Solo... just thought I’d clarify that since you seem hung up on why he’s the main character they focus on......

Im pretty sure it was about khaleesi building an empire.

“The comic relief is a ROBOT.” No, the correct term is “DROID!” What a dismissive and culturally insensitive thing to say. L3-37 would have been greatly offended at that slur. Lucasfilm has been bending over backwards for feminists and SJWs, and yet this is how you repay it?
-
The problem is if you do an analogy to feminism, it puts feminist identity politics on display & it becomes a parody & mockery.
-
That moment when they show true feminism, and people think it's a parody... XD

Was L3 a mockery, or were you more upset that she was a mirror image? Bc L3 was exactly the image you and your ilk project onto others Anita. I mean you're channeling the Droid right now in this twitter thread, and you don't even notice? You're not even aware?

Respectfully, why do you review pop culture if you always seem to hate it? and I think the robot was meant to be an "homage" if you will, to feminism, considering kathleen kennedy is involved?
-
Because her income is based on her hating everything for increasingly esoteric reasons.
-
I thought her income was based on running kickstarters and gofundme's and not fulfilling them? Oh and creating free discord groups and charging 25k for the privilege?
-
Eh both are true

Your rant about Star Wars (as well as most sjw posts) is practically a parody of feminism and activist culture so there’s no need for anti-sjw’s to bother skewering you.

You'll complain about anything, won't ya? It must be hard going out of your way to find new ways to be offended by everything.

You've become a satire of your own self and you're not even aware of it. And I agree with you, for all the odd reasons, because this movie is a travesty that actually tries to satisfy people like you and still ends up flat on its face AND IT"S GLORIOUS! You people are pure gold.
