I mean obviously I feel for the actor, who wouldn’t in that situation. But at the end of the day, just because he’s become a meme doesn’t make him a character who’s important to the story. I mean, where’s Dodonna and Reikkan and Madine and Mothma If rank is so important? If fan favorites are so important, whether there’s a justification or not, where’s Bossk? Why isn’t he in the movie? At the end of the day, whether you got attached to the character because he’s got a memorable face and line in a movie you liked as a kid, or whether you were the actor who portrayed him, the simple truth of the matter is that he was always a bit role that was inconsequential to the story of the film (his scenes were literally shot in parallel with a completely different, interchangeable character saying the same lines). Anyone expecting more from his story in future installments is living in crazy land. Same goes for anyone disappointed that Wedge hasn’t had an important role in these movies - he didn’t have an important role in the last ones either.
