It’s really hard to decide which is the worst Star Wars character in history now, Jar Jar or Phasma? At least Jar Jar was a genuine character, even if wildly inappropriate and hopelessly annoying. Even the Ewoks were cute and had their emotional little moments.
Phasma’s only purpose in the entire ******* film was to lower the shields for the resistance. That’s it. Just imagine an imperial officer whose only function was to lower the shields on Endor and say “you’re gonna regret this!”
I think her role was to sell action figures, ‘chrome trooper’, such a shame.
Don’t forget that they cut roughly 20 minutes from TFA just prior to its release. And a few months ago the film was 4 hours long.
Give me those rushes and i’ll have a go at rectifying it 😃
