I would just say yes, female leads in most action/adventure shows suck and are unconvincing
I don't think disney understands how poisoned the well is. After the sequel trilogy i quite literally will never watch star wars ever again. They killed the goose. I don't care what they do now, it's OVER. They turned one of the most beloved series of all time into ONE OF THE WORST SERIES OF ALL TIME. Frick off and die.
I dropped it after TFA. I thought I was just too old for that shit, but realized later that it was just unwatchable to 90% of people. I can watch the OT and most of the PT no problem, but disneyshit has been a catastrophe
Most Disney Wars stuff is garbage but they've made some great stuff, even stuff with prominent non white male characters
>rogue one
>andor
>jedi fallen order and survivor
>mandalorian season 1 and 2
>clone wars season 7
It's a big smoke screen
That is all bad though
I haven't taken Shit Wars seriously ever since the first screenshots of Jon Boyega taking off the stormtrooper helmet started appearing.
I still really didn't like Rogue One. But Jyn Erso was far from the worst part about it
Yeah the entire 2nd act and the poor characterization of the supporting characters is a much larger issue
The space battle was cool at least
Yeah but that's a 5 minute scene and the second act is like an hour long
This. Audiences liked the use of archival footage. Reminded them of when star wars wasn't a dumpster fire. Also dark forces nostalgia
people only liked rogue one because it had five seconds of dark vador swinging his laser sword. it’s an unbelievably boring and pointless movie.
personally, i thought the vader appearance was pretty lame. the movie would have been better without it. it was clearly put in so moronic fanboys could geek out over it.
Yep. It's fine as fan service but it's very shallow. Have never felt the slightest urge to rewatch.
i didn’t see it in theatres. i can’t even get through it once.
I've only seen the opening scene, the space battle and the Vader scene. I just don't care about the rest of the movie. But for some reason I like Andor
>Wooden cardboard cutout characters
>The only actual character was the robot
Rouge One fricking sucked
Alan Tudyk can make anything soulful and entertaining.
I hated rogue one too but Disney paid for that audience score
>go all in on girl power
>permanently kill off your most appealing female lead character with the most liked and noncontroversial actress
I don't understand this trope
General audiences are moronic for liking rogue juan. That shit was awful. Most contrived movie I've ever seen.
I think the grace afforded to TFA and Rogue One are due to the potential for something interesting that these movies had. The sequel trilogy had the potential to be good if they followed through on some of the interesting aspects of TFA, but we all know how that went starting with TLJ. Rogue One showed that the idea of doing spinoff movies could work and be interesting ways of exploring events that aren’t shown in the main movies, but Solo demonstrated that Rogue One, as basic as it was, was only a fluke and that Disney’s Lucas Films has no idea how what they are doing and they don’t want to listen to the rans that actually are paying customers (i.e. not the Twitter mafia).
I really wanted Disney Star Wars to be good after the shitshow of the prequels. TFA was disappointing, but was open ended enough that I thought the next movie could build on it. I'd look back on TFA as the weakest of the new movies, bland and unimaginative because JJ Abrams wanted to play it safe by retreading ANH to establish the new characters.
I couldn't have imagined then that the sequels would be so terrible that I'd look back fondly on the prequels in comparison, saying "well sure, they're shitty, crass bastardizations of Star Wars, but at least they weren't made by soulless corporate hacks intent on destroying the original trilogy's legacy!"
It’s weird that such a corporate monster like Disney didn’t think to have Lucas Films write the sequel trilogy from start to finish prior to filming. The movies as they are is like if Cinemaphile made a thread titled “ITT: We write the new Star Wars trilogy, one post at a time.” JJ wrote one thing, Johnson wrote another thing, then JJ wrote a different thing again while saying the previous post sucked and trying to retcon everything.
What’s even more annoying is that, as moronic as TLJ was, it could have also been interesting if they Johnson had the balls to actually make Rey and Kylo Ren forsake both the dark and light side of the force to be a third thing entirely.
That's a valid enough reason because the audience is mostly male and ofc it identifies much less if at all with female characters. Men don't owe women anything
They're a paradoxical bunch
>representation and relatability matters a lot
>so here is a woman or black person, wait why aren't you watching anymore?
lol
The bigger question is asking why women and blacks aren't showing up to watch the movies that represent them. Why is the onus on white men to support cultural representations for everyone else?
It's a mixture of low IQ, hormonal fogs and a lack of awareness these woke types labor under. They have to be told how stupid they sound
I still remember there being "woman only" screenings of Wonder Woman and "black only" of Black Panther and of course none of these moronic hypocrite fricks saw those as sexist or racist.
It's time for DisneP to pull the curtain on Star Wars.
But gogue one was absolute trash. Hardly even a movie. It was terrible...
Every few years, film/TV companies and The Media will "forget" all social progress which has taken place in film (or rather they hope that the audience has forgotten), so they can once again tout their strong female character/black hero/Hispanic hero/gay hero/whateverthefrick as being something revolutionary and Very Important To Support when marketing their new low effort, low quality production. This cycle has been going on for probably 50 years at this point. I honestly won't be surprised if Disney/Marvel will pretend like Black Panther didn't happen and that Blade 202X is the film to finally break the mainstream superhero color barrier, just like they ignored their 90s/2000s Blade films when BP came out.
And these days they will also use it as a reason to explain why The Chuds have once again caused their latest production to flop.
Go woke, go broke.
