This is a case of a joke in the fandom becoming a genuine talking point and criticism I think, one based on little, or very circumstantial evidence, that then seems to become a predominant idea which is held as almighty truth by some because it is reinforced by memes and jokes. (Again, my two cents on this.)

Kinda like how the Trek fandom has painted Kirk as a swinger when that really wasn’t how he was portrayed in TOS at all.

The Unpopular Film, TV, Music, Art, Books, Comics, Games, & Technology Opinion Thread (for all you contrarians!)

I have zero interest in anything Harry Potter — books, movies, spinoffs, whatever. I’ll never read them, never watch them. And no, my apathy’s not because Rowling’s a sack of transphobic protoplasm; that’s just the anti-icing on the counter-cake.

Anthony Ingruber would’ve been the perfect young Han Solo, as he looks exactly like a young Harrison Ford.

I thought the same at the time Solo was going into production. Physically, he’s perfect. But just 'cause he can do a spot-on impression of Ford as Han doesn’t entail he has the necessary acting chops to carry an entire movie.

Someone should cast him in a fan-film to test his mettle.

The USA really isn’t all that bad. Yes it has serious issues (such as the whole abortion issue), but it’s still a decent country. It is in NO way a “shithole”. Be glad you’re not living in North Korea.

Tell that to all the Indigenous people who died or lost their culture to genocide, and the black slaves who experienced the same. Tell that to every poor American currently suffering and dying needlessly to preventable illness due to America’s inhumane health care system.

As for those living in North Korea, I’m sure they’d be doing a smidgen better if the US hadn’t first bombed the place to near-oblivion, not to mention all the sanctions in the decades following.

But I’ll end my spiel here, if that’s your wish.
