To be honest I don’t care, I’m sure everyone’s sick of you constantly whining about Frink and causing drama for no reason. This is a forum about star wars, I think everyone on here would like to keep it that way

Would you be happy if I stopped complaining about Mr. Frinks then?

I can’t tell if you are agreeing with him, but if so, see my follow-up directly above your post.
I’m agree with the punctuation.
As for AOTC, not enough Watto…
I know this makes me a bit of a hypocrite, because Watto definitely is a racial caricature, but I still kind of enjoy him. The fact that I’m Jewish just makes me feel more conflicted.
He’s like Alf with a gambling problem, and less fur. It’s another instance where nobody has the nerve to tell George maybe it’s not such a hot idea.
Might have been more fun for Anakin to slip to the dark side beating up all the scum who owe Watto money though. 😉

That’s exactly what I just said, yes

I took this to be an endorsement of not posting, and/or biting our tongues.

😄 It’s not like that, it was just a joke. But when I saw nobody replied, I got it was of bad taste, and so I deleted it :\

😄 In a way, it may be better than what we read in the last few pages.

Change her to male and none of this is any different.
Except that if Rey had been male, nobody on the internet would have questioned it, or even noticed.
I would.
“Daddy, what is that dark place over there?”
“That is the General Star Wars discussion sub forum. You must never go there.”
Not too long ago, it was Off-Topic that was floating in the toilet bowl unflushed. My, how times have changed in so little time.

The feats don’t chance but the perception of those feat do. I bet my right foot that if Rey was a male there wouldn’t be so many people bitching about it. There have been so many male characters that fit perimeters for being a Gary Stu but Rey…the first female protagonist in a Star Wars film is the one who is making the term nearly a household name/term. There’s definitely a correlation but I think most of the reason for the backlash is that she is more competent than Luke was in STAR WARS and since a lot of people’s view of the OT is so fragile it somehow diminishes the character.
If not for Rey’s annoying “I don’t need no help from a MAN” attitude Finn would be little more than a Gary Stu counterpart. His ability to fight competently with a lightsaber without any training or force sensitivity at all is insane.
There is no correlation. It is not because she’s a woman. It’s because she’s a mary sue. However, conversely it is highly likely that she was written to be a mary sue because she’s a woman. The current political climate is such that any character flaw on a female lead that is beyond superficial is likely to be seen by those who like to be outraged as a direct attack on women. And we all know hollywood does not take risks like that.
Criticism of these shallow characters is likely to be seen as an attack on women too, for some reason. In a lot of ways it’s perfect marketing ploy. You can’t criticize the film because the leads are oppressed minorities, and you especially cannot criticize those characters. If I say “Harrison Ford was sleeping through it.” you won’t bat an eyelid. If I say “Rey is a Mary Sue and Boyega can’t act” I’m a racist and misogynist. Or what?
The TFA thread is that a way. Further off topic posts will be deleted without notice.

You might as well close this thread. It’s pointless anyway

It’s crossed my mind.
Yes, it is rather pointless – pointless and boorish. The Mos Eisley cantina is more genteel.

You mean ‘‘gentle’’.
No, I mean “genteel”.
I love Attack Of The Clones I have no problems with it, I like it more than Empire which is another movie I love.
