Mainly here to try and make people laugh! Love SciFi, and video games! I support the franchises, but not the milking of them for greed!
Joined July 2015
@SCReviewsmang I support Star Wars through the good and the bad, but not the greedy, the inept, and selfish. I'm ok with there being bad starwars as long as the intention is there to make a good MOVIE! I don't support the intention to milk the damn franchise dry.

The fact that they think this makes this shitshow better is hilarious. The fact that they fail to realize this makes this shitshow worse is sad.
To all the dummies who review bombed The Acolyte. You look real dumb right now because we just got a Darth Plagueis reveal #TheAcolyte

Racists, bigots, and sexists were never allowed into the star wars fandom. They were always pushed out by the rest of us. The issue is that anyone that dislikes the shit that the disney puts out is now unfairly labeled as a racist, bigot, or sexist. That is the reality check.
Racists, bigots, and sexists don't belong in Star Wars and never have. If for some reason you think they do, you need a hard reality check.

So. let me get this straight, in Disney Star Wars Canon. An evil sith turns a kyber crystal (which is white in R1) from blue to red, because they are evil. Gonna say no. 1. it's stupid.2. Why didn't anakin's change color. oh right because thats not how it works.

Reminder: Very very very very few actual fans are racist or misogynist. The issue has always been with quality of the product. By lumping both groups together and then boiling it down ist-a-phobia you do only one thing. Alienate your paying customers.
I’ll personally be maintaining the energy Ewan McGregor showed when bigots & fools were going after Moses Ingram. Whether it’s racism, misogyny, transphobia, or whatever else: If you engage in this behavior, “you’re no Star Wars fan in my mind.”

I'm happy for this person i guess. but also sad. Growing up some of the most inspiring people I looked up to were black. and I am about as white as they come. I didn't look up to them because they looked like me, but because of their character and what they did. heres a sample
Aragorn was my first hero and it means a lot to me to see a depiction of him that looks so familiar. I loved LotR but I could never see myself in it until now. It's just card artwork but it really takes me back to my childhood

At this point, after what. 6+ years of this shit? If you don't understand why fans don't like her, and still think i'ts "woman" then it's completely on you, and gotten to the point where still not getting it proves you will never grasp it and should simply be muted for sanity.

What if. and hear me out here. The Boba Fett show. was about a Bounty hunter. hunting down bountys?
‘The Book of Boba Fett’ should have focused more on Boba’s time with the tuskens, as he learns to live and fight alongside his new tribe, and starts to rethink both his past and future. Agree?

So, two things stand out here to me. 1. The MASSIVE skills difference between Hayden, and Dawson. it's insane how much quicker and smoother his moves are compared to her. 2. My absolute complete and overwhelming sense of Apathy while watching this scene. I feel literally nothing.

1. Calls me out then blocks replies like a little bitch.2. KMT never said why she left. 3. Boyega was surprised to find out that the fans really liked Finn and thought he was done dirty. He was told fans were racist by LFL.
"Racists, bigots, and sexists were never allowed into the Star Wars fandom.".Tell that to Rose Marie Tran and John Boyega who had to suffer through all the hate-mail and death threats over the last decade from people calling themselves "longtime SW fans". 🙄

1. The PT was hated by a specific group. Not the fanbase as a whole.2. Some of the fanbase has come around, some have not.3. The ST is hated as a whole by the bulk of the fanbase.4. No, in short no. in fact I think the only way to revitalize the franchise is to decanonize the ST.
People hated the prequel trilogy. Now they’re just as loved as the original trilogy. Do you think the sequel trilogy will get the same amount of love from the majority of Star Wars fans in the future?

When Iron Man came out no one who wasn't a marvel die hard knew who Iron Man was, and RDJ was a drug addict who had gone to jail. He made both famous with his skill, his charisma and his personality. He IS iron man.
The big titles of the past decade are brands and franchises established in numerous prequels and sequels. Robert Downey Jr is a leading man, but his Iron Man could be played by almost anyone with wit; the character is more important to audiences than the actor.

"No one hates Star Wars like Star Wars Fans". You misinterpret the situation. Every single one of us is still a Star Wars fan. but what we hate. is not star wars, it's a pretender, a body snatcher pretending to be Star Wars. and we have a pitch fork.

I really want to see one of these people go to a college course stop the professor at the one hour mark and go "If you can't summarize your point in an hour, you failed".
Mauler is legitimately one of the worst critiques I’ve ever seen, if you can’t summarize your point in at least an hour you failed. I’m someone who doesn’t even like the Last Jedi but if you need five hours to explain something that doesn’t even take half the time you failed.

Someone has to explain the situation to her very very very quickly. No one hates Daisy, we hate Rey, and the writing.

I have seen no one hate on the actors. Poke fun at them for dumb things they have said, sure. But no one is attacking them personally.
I will say that I think it’s going to be very hard for Disney to cast upcoming #StarWars projects, because this level of hate just isn’t worth it - even for up & coming actors . Like poor Lee Jung-Jae - coming off of Squid Game, doing a great job on #TheAcolyte, and for what?

Literally no one wants this. We do however want internal consistency of the rules for that world. If it has any kind of real world carry over of the rules, it must internally follow those rules that have already been established. Fucking hell keep up!.
If you need everything in Star Wars to be: .- scientifically feasible.- logical.- thoroughly explained.- backed with equally scientific / logical evidence . then you’re not watching Star Wars for the story. You’re watching it because you want to make it real. It isn’t.

There is no way in hell. you can convince me that a Lightsaber which can do THIS to METAL doors and Droids. wouldn't instantly kill a human being of FLESH and bone if stabbed with. They'd have their inside mental in seconds, especially if it's stabbed, a cut yes, stabbed no.

This is Master Nepo. She is the most powerful Jedi in The Acolyte and their leader. She's also now the first Jedi to use a purple lightsaber (sorry Mace Windu) and a lightsaber whip. Who to cast in such a prestigious role? Leslye Headland's wife, of course.

"best fight choreography we've seen since the prequels" .True, but misleading. It implies that the choreography is actually good, it is not, it's just the choreography for all of the disney era has been insanely shit.
The Acolyte has some of the best fight choreography we’ve seen since the prequels. I love how the master Jedi only use their weapons as a last resort. I love the characters. These are the Jedi I’ve always imagined. Great development & attention to detail. The force is strong here

A female lead has never been the issue the Fandom Menace has with Star Wars. Poorly made characters and bad movies has been the issue. Rey wasn't the only one, Finn, Kylo, Hux, Luke, all terribly written. Gender wasn't the issue, quality was.
I felt fandom menace heads explode when the first #ProjectLuminous thing that dropped had a female lead. And what a great feeling it was.
