The reason Reva was poorly received is because she’s unattractive. If she were hot then people would have liked her.

If they had cast a hotter black woman people would have been okay with it.
No shit moron. WE have been the ones saying that this whole time. If they’re gonna keep subjecting us to Black folk at least get attractive ones
pshh you never said that
>If they had cast a hotter black woman people would have been okay with it.
Nothing wrong with her except that they didn't make her look like her comic book counterpart!!!FACT!!!
Ironically wasn't black enough for the inverted color version, the white patch is barely visible because she's not black-black.
she's hotter than her comic book counterpart
Just don't write any scenes that require a stunt double.
honestly, yeaaaa
full black mongoloids are ugly as shit
mixed are top tier
This casting choice literally killed a black woman and they hailed it as a triumph of diversity
pic not related
Why are the "hottest" black women also the ones with the most Caucasian dna ?
Reva was poorly received because she was a terrible character.. And even when the final episode aired, she remained a terrible character and had no impact on the overall story whatsoever.
pretty much this
>eat your memberberries and prepare your anus for this new cuming product
a 6 episode commercial for Teh Reva Show featuring the product placement of the batteries not included ripoff robot and cutesy leia.
I noticed after Disney made their “there’s 20 million species in Star Wars but no racism” twert and forced Kenobi to call all his fans racists tweet that redditors went from saying she was a bad actress to saying the writing was bad. It was amazing watching people get scared of the racism boogeyman in real time.
>most dysgenic in human history
>no core identity or spine.
I'm close to believing phenotype expression, people who like this shit have to be of similar stock. Because you see so many soi boys and shit all look the same and have similar beliefs
>make a half-assed piece of shit
>put a woman and/or minority in it
>denounce all critics as sexists and/or racists
>normalgays fall for it and get tricked into spending their money on the aforementioned half-assed piece of shit
>they censor their public opinion about how much it sucks because they don't want to get mobbed
>five years later, everyone is allowed to acknowledge that it's shit because the corporation already made off with their money and they don't need people to like it anymore
>repeat forever
It's Ghostbusters 2016 all over again.
/Thread. And they use the woke crowd as their personal army to attack anyone who points out how bad this show is.
No racism in Star Wars? C-3PO calls Jawas disgusting creatures.
thats a tale for another time
He named the Jawa.
Her motives just don't make sense. From what I gathered at the end she wanted to get back at Vader for stabbing her in the Jedi temple but also wanted to get back at Obi-Wan too because she believed him to be responsible for Anakin's downfall. But it looked like she wanted to get back at Obi-Wan more than Vader, even going as far as trying to kill Luke because Obi-Wan was protecting him? They couldn't even redeem her or make even likeable. We've had many characters that turned and got redeemed and that were far better than Reva.
>Reva was poorly received because she was a terrible character..
..and she was unattractive.
... and it was plainly obvious that her unattractiveness and irritating presence were intended as a flex by Lucasfilm
This. She could have been a pasty white albino. Her race nd gender had nothing to do with being bad at acting.
*would of
What?
excdently chop off my doong with laightsabre again
She’s definitely lying about her age
She seems close enough to 29. But Reva is supposed to be about 20 in the show and it’s too old.
How? Older or younger? She claims to be 28 and looks like that age to me.
Idiotic character. Makes no sense. Also if empire is supposed to be racist and supremacist why would they even give blacks high positions? Why the frick is star wars filled with so many shitty human characters and barely any aliens?
The Empire is racist towards aliens, moron. When you have dozen of weird species roaming the galaxie, it makes no sense to have issues with someone's skin color as long as they're human.
She her acting skills were like she was a lost baby. She might be talented outside of this but she consistently did nothing in Kenobï
they should have gotten lupita nyongo to play her as an apology for casting her as a raisin in the sequels
Hollywood is currently sabotaging Lupita for some reason
If Moses looked like this in the show no one would’ve complained
>Hollywood is currently sabotaging Lupita for some reason
Because she is an actual foreign African, and one of taste, etiquette, class, and breeding
Hollywood needs to cast African-Americans or else they risk alienating the "Urban demographic" because the African is acting "too white"
Reva shouuld have been a white woman.
or an alien
star wars is too human centric
seriously why were the tatooine scenes so full of humans
no budget
Aliens work well because their bad acting or dialogue can be handwaved away with "its just their weird alien behavior".
Why not cast that tall attractive white debiki chick as Ventress?
People like ventress because she's a hot villain with prio history with Kenobi.
thats for season 2, she's going to have his love child
She looks like a cashier working a Dollar Tree in Atlanta.
She was fine. The problem with kenobi was mainly plot related.
it was just horrible writing
This. They could've made a cool character but instead they kept contradicting them selves. Also How. The frick. Did she get away from Vader and Nosferatu? Like I get they had "bigger fish to fry" but 0. Absolutely 0 explanation how she got away, plus why did she wanna kill Luke? "He's Vaders Son" how would she know that, that broken msg didn't say that. The writing was a mess idk how they get away with it
Writing was bad aswell as her acting. Single-handedly let down what should have been a good show.
I don't like black people, and I don't want to see them in my fictional entertainment
thank you for being a b***h
You can seethe all your like but the reality is that 99% of earth finds niggs to be loathsome and disgusting. Why you ask?
I think it has to do with the fact that they’re all ugly as frick and clearly lower life forms.
It’d be the same as pretending you find a rat or an aborigine attractive. It’s just not a function of human desire or aesthetics.
Tldr black’s are ugly and revolting because their black innit
Double dubs of honesty and truth.
My daily quota of blacks gets filled before I've had my first coffee. I'm not spending my time and emotional energy getting them shoved down my throat by a committee of incompetent propagandists.
I just realized she was on the queen's gambit
It's a combination of things, SW has always had bad characters but because this one is black and a woman she gets hated on the most
>but because this one is black and a woman she gets hated on the most
It might have something to do with the obvious political agenda that we know is being pushed and you are a lame-ass c**t for pretending doesn't exist.
nope, you hit the nail on the head
I didn't watch the show
>She also influenced Reva's appearance, insisting that the character use her natural kinky hair rather than a wig so that African-American kids could imitate the character for Halloween.[15]
No it was all orchestrated by the incel shafow council of Cinemaphile
no it's because she can't act for shit
I find it hilarious and entertaining how disney is trashing star war, is anyone else having fun watching the slow train wreck?
>I find it hilarious and entertaining how disney is trashing star war
I asked my young cousin if he liked Star Wars because I was mildly curious about what dumbass kids are watching now, and I got this face from him.
This should be a lesson for all
If you have creativity and imagination, hold onto it. Not everyone has it.
your cousin is based, and it might be in your blood too. Never forget this
Odin might have cum in his mouth. Never forget this
You are correct. We are tired of ugly black women in entertainment.
no need for a qualifier.
Nah. Bad acting ruins scenes regardless of the person being attractive.
Her being hot would require alterations in costume, makeup, writing, and casting.
She should have been a hot white girl in alien makeup. And a sexy costume. Not Ahsoka tier but more akin. The Dark Side is about giving into your passions and coming across as kinda loose is definitely dark side
I mean like this. Elegant and pretty but also sexy. Not too elegant. A little unhinged.
But they cast a not very attractive woman and made her up and dressed her to be masculine and irritating. Someone I have zero desire to see or hear onscreen.
They cast an ugly black woman for cultural marxist reasons. They hate beauty and envy anyone with it and think everything should be ugly.
This scene would have been so much better with weird sexual tension between Owen and Reva. Imagine a hot Reva (like ) touching Owen gently and playfully. A long fingernail running down his face as she smiles. She knows she’s out of Owen’s league. She knows Owen finds her attractive. Owen knows she’s out of his league. She knows Owen knows that. She’s just a b***h cruelly teasing him with how hot she is. While he can’t leave because she’s an Inquisitor.
And she makes a joke like, “Do you have a wife, Owen? While touching his face subtly sensually to suggest she is hoping he’s available. And when she says yes she says, “It’s a pity” suggesting she wishes he were single so she could get with him, then saying loudly to the crowd “because I will have to kill her if you don’t give up the Jedi!”
But no it’s just an aggressive angry weird scene where they stand chest to chest like men in conflict. She’s just an annoying bully with nothing appealing.
She’s neutered and bland and the fact that she’s a woman never affects the story. Boring gender neutrality
whats it like waking up every day having an inferiority complex to woman of all things?
I am thinking like scene from Smallville. Lionel takes control of Clark’s body and then torments Chloe Sullivan who got him put in jail. Chloe is in love with Clark and so Lionel teases her and then rejects her saying “don’t you wish.” It’s a great scene because Lionel is so smooth and Clark is handsome and Chloe knows it’s too good to be true but she loves Clark so much she wants to believe and she does and Lionel just rips her heart out.
Just that cruel, sexual teasing energy would have made Reva a much more fun and appealing to watch villain.
mmmm she was chubby in that scene
Uncle Owen wouldn't have bought her sensual teasing. He's a wholesome, dedicated tough as nails farmer on a planet full of criminals, who loves and protects his family. He would've died for Luke, no amount of pussy would've swayed him for a second from that.
>He would've died for Luke
he did
>Not Ahsoka tier but more akin
didn't they cast some 5'10, 50 year old with a fridge bod for her too?
Ahsoka would have been better as a hot white woman but they at least did appealing makeup and the sexy lekku type thingy and bare shoulders and Dawson is in good shape.
The chin and inaccurate flesh hair size makes me upset.
Mizkif?
I can't really think of anyone better fit for an adult Ahsoka
>Ahsoka would have been better as a hot white woman
same as Gamora
non-whites faces are too flat for these characters, the lack of nose ridge make them look ridiculous
Reva was poorly received because she reminds us of the obnoxious little black girl with big plastic beads in her braids that we all had to deal with in elementary school
Yeah and those girls don’t grow up to be hot
She moved out of state and shit done went left, she's seekin' forgiveness
N
I’m not one of the crowd that’s afraid of seeing black people on the telly. That being said, it is really odd how they only ever choose the ugliest black women as leads. It’s like if they cast James Corden to play the main character, it’s just weird. There’s so many hot as frick black girls they could cast instead.
All I see is a trash can.
Half right
But then again Baby Leia is cute and most people didn't like her
Baby Yoda is ugly as sin and he's overwhemingly popular
so?
>I put a tracking device on their ship.
>Cool, thanks, snap neck.
Should have been that simple. He's killed people for less. She had no reason to live other than Vader just trolling her. Obi Wan also had no reason to spare her after countless Jedi she has killed.
The Asian inquisitor had a KINO voice.
Wish I had got to see him fight.
I want Halle Barry to choke me with the force
I think she's a qt3.14. Her character is cringe af tho.
Wesley Snipes in drag would have been a better choice
Only thing unattractive about her is that haircut. Moses Ingram is fricking gorgeous!!!FACT!!!
She looks like a poop wrapped in a leaf
She looks like a bruised watermelon lol
i checked her instagram and shes kinda cute, especially the bts videos on kenobi
I thought she came across pretty likeable on that interview with Ewan and Hayden as well but her writing was a mess and she delivered it badly.
lol
the problem is that she's not fit, you can tell that they barely workout
I would like Reva to slob on my lightsaber hilt
She has fetal alcohol syndrome face
She's rough as guts and you could get any black woman better looking than her easy on any fricken street in America.
Her acting was beyond bad.
heres how to fix reva
>make her hot
>get rid of the angry moron brute characterization it doesn't work for women
I propose zoe kravitz
eww.
not with that hair
obviously not, give her a space weave, if they can make robot limbs they can sure as hell give black women decent hair
I bet the woke actress refused to cut her cornrows and weave and wear a space wig.
So she ended up looking like a lesbian soccer player.
Just go back to watching troony porn, grownups are chatting here.
don't project your disgusting porn fetishes on here ever again
How did she get to luke so fast? She gets fricking disemboweled, left for dead with no transport on a random desert planet, and then just shows up in the closest town to Owen, and just happens to find them bars on one name. All of this in the time it took for obi wan to leave the transport ship he was already on.
I guess Vader is really that incompetent and has been chasing Obi in that junker ship for hours or maybe days.
and then after that obi wan just grabs a ship and takes a joy ride to alderan, if it were that fricking easy for a fugitive to get to alderan what was the point of the show?
I just wish she was Ventress.
Frick I wish that was me.
I wish Reva did this exact thing to little Luke
She sucks at acting. Really takes me out of the show, plus I hate her voice.
Also, she's black.
The last episode was great, it was shot at night and all I could see of here were the whites of her eyes and the glistening of her fake tears.
HER
Out of the three Filoni Inquistor's the Moses Ingram ("Reva") portral was the least dumb. The other three inquisitors suffered from extremely cheap costuming of which would still be stupid looking regardless of build. The helicoptor saber itself should have never made it to screen.
Another issue is the name "Reva" which is clearly appropriated from KOTOR's Revan. This is the second time Disney has misappropriated LucasArts kino for their "content". The first being is when Filoni re-skinned is OC characters in his OC series "Rebels" with Force Unleashed's Starkiller and Rahm Kota.
she moves like she finna cop. nothing about her expressions implies any finesse. Certainly not the amount needed for saber combat. Also, yes, I am racist.
Barely trained youngling and then held back by the inquisitor program after, it's nice they didn't mary sue her skill level. Was nice to see that she is hot garbage.
not speaking in a british accent but rather your standard baltimore resident dialect really hurt her illusion in the show
also her evil hair looks stupid (i can complain about her evil hair if they made a point to change it when she turned good)
Why is the empire now just a bunch of crazy angry dumbfricks? In the OT they were cold, professional, and overwhelming in strength of numbers. They weren’t arrogant in the sense that they could hold back, but rather that their strength is so overwhelming that they could do whatever they wanted.
Can't have competent villains. They all have to be comical dumb fricks.
the people who inhabit the star wars galaxy are not intelligent, they have technology that makes everything easy. The average astronaut from the 1970s would have been over qualified for planetary governor of Naboo.
What you have is a galaxy of stupid motherfrickers playing with advanced tech being held hostage by a sentient creature called "the force". The endless religious schism feeds fickle beast, and it favors whoever it feels like, which is why obiwan can somersault in the prequels but not the OT.
I just don't understand why there's an African woman in Star Wars
>20 million sentient races
>our lead antagonist has to be black because.... SHE JUST DOES OKAY
If she was super-cute it would have been cool, plus one who could actually do stunts.
No, it was a few reasons. Fugly is just a piece of the pie. There is also the way she speaks and her mannerisms, they resemble neither a Jedi remnant nor an imperial inquisitor. The character is written possessing knowledge that feels unnatural, similar to a child's fanfic. The character causes other characters to behave contrary to their nature for the sake of framing the plot in a certain way. The plot revolves around her as if she were the star of the show (though this point is only negative because of her unnatural place in the story alongside Kenobi's strange behavior that is poorly detailed, it gives the sense that they wrote the show as a vessel to tell her story rather than Kenobi's).
friendly reminder THIS is the sith woman george lucas wanted to seduce ben solo in the sequel trilogy but disney threw that out, replaced her with snoke, and then made this gorilla sith to ruin the kenobi show as well.
Why God, WHY?
How is George so based?
>The reason Reva was poorly received is because she’s DELIBERATELY unattractive. If she weren't a racial assault against the audience people would have liked her.
ftfy
I wrote a longer OP but I edited my OP down because I know a simpler, clear OP is better for driving engagement. Not as bait, I just wanted people to know the crux of my argument and not get lost in the nuance.
Yes, she is deliberately unattractive. Just like Rose Tico in the Last Jedi. It’s cultural marxism. The women producing this have to make all the actresses ugly because they think it will make them feel better to see their own ugliness on screen (it doesn’t, just makes for a bad film and gets them backlash which reinforces their own negative self image).
And yeah casting a Black was part of the intentional ugliness. Negresses are not as attractive as white women on average. The racial casting was definitely intended as an insult to white people which also makes the character annoying. But if they had made her at the least an attractive negress, or genuinely tried to make her attractive, the insulting attitude would not be present. Congrats you turned me into a wordcel when I wrote a chad OP. homosexual.
Being ugly is just one reason. But, yeah, making her hot would be such a simple basic improvement. But, you know, wokeness
just a bad character. two dimensional angry evil person that bosses people around that is also meant to be a badass because she can do parkour and stand up to people. and then a ill conceived redemption arc that doesn't work because her sob story is shoe horned in and no one cares about reva. you could delete her from the show and have the fat asian inquisitor take her place and it'd make no difference. though he would have slightly more charisma actually
They really didn't do a good job at making her badass. First impressions matter a lot, and she just seemed hasty and insubordinate instead of being intimidating and getting shit done. The laughable parkour scene doesn't help either lmao what the frick was that
If you don't nail the character in the first 10 minutes of Episode 1, you lost the audience forever.
true, at the very least it would have lessened the awul reception
I would like to see an alien as the villain
If you have to go human, and not white for some reason, at least make it an Asian person. SEA, Japanese, Chinese, I don’t give a shit. Maul was cool.
its sad how nu-star wars is obsessed with pushing humans above everything, i know i know the cost etc it gets boring very fast
(hell even obi want is just catalogue pad made for cheap in that giga greenscreen they have.)
Women jedi are pretty cringe lets be honest
No, hot ones aren’t.
I never said that. I only said it would be better received (less bad), not well received.
Reva being unfeminine, neutered, black girl playground bully, bad hair, bland cover-all costume that didn’t accentuate her body, with zero physical appeal was an intentional insulting choice by the producers. They wanted to offend white supremacists and even unconscious white racists (which means all white people). They also wanted to push a message that a woman’s attractiveness doesn’t matter. She can be badass and tough and just like a man. They wanted ugly angry black girls to see themselves represented on screen and feel good about themselves. But casting an ugly person in a starring role or making them ugly doesn’t make ugliness celebrated. It just makes people not want to watch.
When you set out to insult your audience and put visually unappealing content on screen because that’s your core message, you’re gonna alienate viewers
>It's automatically good when the people in it are hot
That's the philosophy of South Koreans and look at the state of that shitty nation.
No uglies allowed. Go away
>and look at the state of that shitty nation
Yeah why would anyone prefer that over America so true king
Women just aren’t intimidating and make poor villains. It doesn’t help that her character and acting were trash on top of that.
It is so easy to write an excellent female villain... you just have to write them femininely
Modern writers are garbage eating morons who absolutely insist on trying to make women threatening by... making them act like men
>"Oh no! The scary 5'6" 130lb woman is shouting at me!"
Women destroy their enemies through manipulation and deceit and social power
Nasty women with power are absolute fricking nightmares, especially in the gynocratic dystopia we're moving into
Writing a legitimately memorable threatening female inquisitor was the easiest job in the world and these hack writers fricked it up either because they have no talent or because they ideologically tied their shoelaces together by having to write an effective threatening memorable villain who can't be too irredeemable or too scary and has to represent women of colour while not making them look bad
>Reva was poorly received is because she’s unattractive.
Yeah well “she’s” black, so...
>If she were hot then people would have liked her.
Refer to the above
I would frick the shit out of the actor, I got jungle fever, but that still doesn't change the fact that she's a shitty addition that distracts from Obi-Wan's story
Star Wars is filled with ugly frickers.
This b***h didn't even force pull her lightsaber to her at all, she just keeps picking shit up. Her character was made to be shit, like she inexplicably forgets how to use the force.
The entire notion of Inquisitors, employing dark-side non-Sith force users to hunt Jedi, is an unnecessary and stupid retcon.
its amazing that you gay Black folk fell for this false flag and completely forgot about disney putting literally no effort into the canonical appearances of the other two inquisitors. ~~*they*~~ literally tricked you into forgiving them for even worse offenses to lower the bar for expectations in the future.
She was terrible. It's like these writers wanted her to be cool but she just seemed constipated all the time. I was watching the series with my family and my mom kept laughing at her acting, saying that her screaming sounds like a frog.
Reva is a stubborn fricking c**t on a revenge arc. She's not supposed to be liked, you're meant to hate her because she's a callous b***h. You could appreciate that she's probably playing it up because if she drops character the other inquisitors will sense her hesitation and frick her up, or feed her to Vader. Reva over did it a bit, but honestly the kid leia was far worse and her scenes were unwatchable.
Get used to mixed races in SW tho, George Lucas was always a progressive lefty (original han solo was going to be black).
On the plus side, it's set in another universe and the blacks there might be less black than our blacks, if you're picking up what I'm putting down.
>Reva is a stubborn fricking c**t on a revenge arc. She's not supposed to be liked, you're meant to hate her because she's a callous b***h.
That would be fine if we weren't meant to sympathise with her in the end. She has no quality that makes her cool or intriguing so there is no reason to be happy when she does the right thing at the end.
Bad Writing
Bad Acting
Ugly Actress
Stupid Show
nah she isn't ugly. She wasn't well received because people are tired or glorified minorities. When she got her ass handed by vader then people calmed down.
I hope they included a joke where a human would question her what planet she's from
Reva was poorly received because she's a dogshit actor. Literally every scene with her is just
>I'M ACTIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Her idea of being intimidating and commanding is just yelling at the top of her lungs and she sounds like a 12 year old boy throwing a tantrum.
Being attractive, a better actor, and better writing might help…
Hahhahahahahahahahahaha
absolutely nuStar Wars
She was ok the problem was the director/editor of her scenes. They could have easily gone with different takes or guided her to change her performance.
>the problem was the director/editor
unironically an amateur director could have problems working with young actors, maybe Moses Instagram is not the problem but the chinkywinky
I think she looked fine after her hair got all fricked up and she started acting less like a b***h.
she's also of a different culture.
I agree with this. Setting aside the race thing, she has this weird thing where idk if it's fetal alcohol syndrome or what but it's like she's had no sleep for weeks and the fatigue has aged her horribly, and her acting is so autistic and terrible in the few clips I've seen of her that she can't even make it work to her advantage with her performance.
Reminder all nu wars is homosexual shit
You're 100% right. But the 99th percentile black is like a 30th percentile of any other race. And forced diversity kills the suspension of disbelief anyway.
They're gonna make a spin off of her aren't they
HOLY shit I mean just look at this pic, ive not watch the show but this looks so fricking CRINGE kek based off this I absolutey hate her. Why is she posing like some satire action parody?
Time and time again we are shown and proven that diversity hires cannot act for shit. Watch an episode of Wheel of Time to die from cringe
The prettiest woman on the planet couldn't act her way out of that horrible writing. It starts and ends in the writer's room.
The best writing on the planet couldn't carry a script for an ugly fetal alcohol syndrome b***h. It starts and ends in her mother's Henny bottle
I feel like the other inquisitors would have made for better main antagonists, its not that shes not hot or that shes black she just got a shitty role
She's also awful as the character, and the character itself is a joke
it would still be shit character, story and show, but youd be surprised how much shit beautiful people get away with. they can be buttholes, annoying, b***hes, dickheads, etc and people let it slide just to look at them. you can overlook bad acting a lot if its a pretty face male or female.
