JJ Is The Lesser Of Two Evils That Is All It Is. Although I Should Note The Coma Was RJ Request So That

Poor Jhoira bumped off the pack for some Aven and a Benalish Knight? No Spark, No Packet Apparently. Teferi is back and Karn looks like Thanos. 

Toyfair Reveals! Big news: Teferi is a Planeswalker again! Source: https://t.co/AC3nnf6Pgm

Star Wars SDCC Reaction I am going to go line by line down the defense of this artist and shred him. First, I find it hilarious he thinks the prominence of women, white women needs to be increased but sees no need for POC representation despite acknowledging it lacking in his opening I am not a racist defense. Second, I thought the main point about Rey was she is a random untied to the Skywalker Baggage. Yet the point of this poster is Skywalkers and yet Rey is not a Skywalker and to hear Reylos tell it that is a great thing. Third, I don’t know if he or the art company are racist. I think its pretty hard to argue though that given the treatment the POC have gotten under LF with KK in charge that she is not racist. George Lucas got raked over the coals for racist aliens (fairly if you ask me) that were based on stuff you see an Old Flash Gordon Serials. But at least he had the decency to make them non human looking Aliens doing the physical comic relief. Lando ran city in the 80s was the coolest cat around and took out the 2nd Death Star. Mace Windu was the 2nd highest position in the Jedi Order and took Darth Sidious the distance. Finn cannot beat TR-8R in a duel, first lead to every lose one on one to a nameless stromtrooper throughout history in all Star Wars media. You never saw Mace or Lando drinking from troughs with animals or walking around leaking water from their suits like a damn minstrel show. And George never baited and switched on a marketing campaign, Mace was shown with a lightsaber and was a Jedi unlike Finn. Poe at least got to take down Star Killer Base but boy was the TLJ a letdown as he trades lives without care and suddenly has a problem with female leadership. Lets get into character choice. PT: Palpatine is the main villain thus he should be up top to go with the other main villains. Qui-Gon had like no impact on Anakin, since he basically instantly died before he could really impact Anakin. If its about mentors then it should be Yoda here or Mace. Both had way larger impacts on Anakin falling then Qui-Gon. But mostly it should be fixed in keeping with the character limit by moving Palpatine up top and moving Anakin down to replace Qui-Gon. Also the theme is suppose to be one character  per movie so even if I buy these characters choices Qui-Gon should be on the left, Kenobi center, and Padme right. But that doens’t work because and this will come up again who thinks Padme’s best stuff was in III? If it has to be these three characters then it should be Qui-Gon, Padme then Kenobi. Qui-Gon cause he dies in this in I so he has to be there. Padme eh it does have most of the senate stuff and you know she isn’t pathetically dying or enabling Anakin. Kenobi he duels Anakin on Mustafar. Under my system keeping the character limit Padme keeps the middle, Kenobi goes to the left for dueling Maul. Anakin goes to the right for obvious reasons. R2-D2 stays and Palpatine is up top with the Villains. OT: Seems fine really, I mean you could make the case for C-3PO to fit the droid theme. But Yoda does have to go somewhere. The rest are obvious although funny how when they are white the heroic trio all shows up. Although there is a reocurring issue why would anyone pick Episode VI for Han Solo? No Star Wars fan thinks Han got his best material in that movie, heck even Ford doesn’t think that. Honestly, Luke can be any of the movies. Han should definitely be IV or V and Leia should be IV or VI. Seems like these choices were only made to make Leia the center. But even then you put Han on the Left and Luke on the Right. But if it was me, Han is on the left his best stuff is in this movie like the iconic Han shot first. Luke is V this is after all the movie with a certain I am your father scene. Leia in VI this is one where she chokes out Jabba and you know the Resistance finally wins. ST: Luke and Leia mentors. I mean Leia at least mentors Poe mostly offscreen but Han is far more Rey’s mentor then Luke. Luke didn’t teach Rey anything. Not to mention if the goal is representing each movie in the series well Luke and Leia are already doing that for IV and V. No one else is double dipping. Also why is Leia the furthest representing the last movie in IX. I mean I doubt he started before Carrie Fisher sadly passed but Leia is not representing IX that is for sure. Honestly, I do Finn, Poe and Rey left to right since Poe was more plot relevant then Finn in TLJ while Finn was moreso in TFA and Rey can go anywhereas the main lead who again is not a Skywalker. But its not the artist fault that its called the Skywalker Sage when Rey is a Random. After all we all know KK and RJ think Kylo Ren is the main lead and protag anyway.  He certainly drives the plot more then Rey.

I am happy Carrie Fisher is gone I shudder what they do to Leia. Cant wait for Mark to right a tell all book and no wonder George Lucas didn't grace the red carpet. Disney better have an airtight contract or George Lucas should sue.

Luke Skywalker couldn't kill his own father in duel threw down his lightsaber and was willing to let the Emperor kill him instead. Even though he knew his father was a monster. Heck it isn't restricted to family...Luke gave Jabba The Hut notorious criminal to which he had no Family ties a chance to surrender Han first. But I am suppose to believe Luke Skywalker would draw his Lightsaber to kill his nephew over some Dark Thoughts? You have to be shitting me.

TLJ spoilers (about Luke and Kylo’s backstory):

Yeah its gonna be great.

Whoever already read Children's Crusade #9, spoil me.

I mean it!!! My askbox is opened and I won’t spoil anyone else, I just really need to know what happens. PLEASEEEEE!

The Last Jedi Reviews

Great stuff basically RJ is lying bitch ass bastard. Finn basically has the same “arc” as last time just with less screen time and less plot relevance cause this time his actions are pointless. What he and Rose do on their adventure makes no difference, the only difference is this time Finn gets to beat Phasma. Poe has an irrelevant mutiny subplot that goes nowhere cause Holdo suicide rams her ship into the Supremacy proving she is good all along. Which changes nothing because it is all pointless as the Resistance is slaughtered until Rey, Finn, Poe, Leia and Rose are the only humans of note that remain. Rose ends in a coma saving Finn, how original RJ. Finn and Poe barely interact at all. But hey at least Poe meets Rey at the end. And guess what it ends with some random black kid (who you meet earlier for like a minute) showing the Force by pulling a Broom apparently. As an extra slap in the face I suppose to anyone who wanted Finn to have the Force. So yeah RJ shunts all the POC into worthless subplots that do not change or impact the plot at all. But basically goes look I am not racist this random black kid has the force who will never see again...wink wink. We get basically no Finn and Poe interaction or Finn, Poe, Rose and Rey interaction at all.

No wonder no one wants to talk about this stuff in the reviews. RJ put less then the bear minimum in this part of the plot. Not only is it a bad subplot nothing they do has any significant impact on the fucking plot. So basically all the diversity they patted them on the back for mostly consists of a fucking smokescreen cause they had to do something with the characters and couldn't fire them all. But dont kid yourself RJ doesn't give one solitary shit about them.

But hey he put the focus on a conflicted white male “bad boy”, had Rey swoon over his abs and character assassinated Luke Skywalker so greatest star wars movie since Empire.

You can say that I agree but lets face it what is shown in the movies is not someone who has the top of their class in combat. The books don’t matter, heck I am not even sure RJ watched TFA or the OT. Finn got beat by Rey, got beat by TR-8R and beat Phasma cause she was looking the wrong direction. Beyond that while you could argue he showed impressive skills with blasters in TFA...RJ decided not to have him use a blaster at all in TLJ. So I can’t blame the audience forgetting the impression that he is not great at combat cause the movies have done nothing to dissuade that notion. Plus you know the scenes where he is most competent always seem to end up on the cutting room floor remarkable coincidence that is.

This is not to say racism doesn't play a roll at all.

can ppl like you stop acting like finn was just a janitor he literally wasn’t he was top of his class and well on his way to be an officer and only worked on sanitation bc that was part of his rotational as a cadet (like every cadet did it) so ofc he would be great at combat bc he was again top of his class

This AU came back I guess...

RJ seems to have done whatever he wanted and ignored all hints for Finn and Rey. I think you covered Finn pretty well but I want expand on Rey.

1) She is inexplicably superpowered in the Force. No Skywalker Blood, No Palpatine Blood, No Kenobi Blood, No Immaculate Conception just two random parents. And she is this strong with one week max of training? Even Anakin couldn't beat Dooku with Kenobi and 10 years and he was the chosen one. I know some have defended her against Mary Sue but come on now...

2) Unkar just decides not to sell her? He was going to beat her up and steal BB-8 but wont cash in on a super strong Force Sensitive girl? Also how the frak do they know she has the Force this strong? Are midichlorians back? Did a knight of Ren drop by scan her and decide not to walk off with such a strong force user?

3) Rey has a random Force bond with Kylo, has the Skywalker lightsaber call to her, Dreams of the island Luke is on and outpulls said Skywalker lightsaber when fighting Kylo but has no connection to the Skywalker Family at all? And prior to TFA had never even met Kylo....how does that even make logical sense.

TLJ SPOILER-Y REPLY

seguun replied to your post “Should’ve listened to you. But I wanted to believe thst I would get…”

The worse part about Finn and Rose stuff is I am willing to bet it gets played for laughs. Rose probably wont even say Sorry. Beyond that the lack of comments on Finn, Poe and Rose tell me there stuff will be boring or limited or both. And the Reylo stuff seems somewhat legit since this is clearly the Kylo and Luke show. Reylo stuff means Rey is a Rando or Kenobi at best. So all in all I doubt I enjoy this. The only positive Finn stuff is he takes out Phasma..

Luke is the weirdest one though since no one seems to agree across all spoilers seems to agree with what goes down at the end. Force Ghost, Force Projection, Clone, Dead, Alive some combination who knows. But based on Mark’s comments, I doubt it end great for him. Snoke is a nobody probably. But consider me extra salty if Rey really is a Rando and all the Force Users are White in this one just because RJ, KK and LF decided to keep the Force White and the POC in the B-Plot

Yes, I am sure it will be played for laughs and a “meet cute” - it’s really sitcom.  Beyond the awfulness of what’s done to Finn’s character AGAIN which others have explained far better than I have - ffs he just got out of a coma and she zaps him to unconsciousness? It’s like knocking Han out after he was unfrozen in Jedi. Finn’s been through an unbelievable trauma, he’s off to find the one person he knows and cares about - and this new character I’m supposed to like comes and shocks him? It’s tone deaf on so many levels I can’t even believe someone decided this was a good idea (and what, the Resistance allows fellow soldiers to just attack people leaving? Really?) 

And the Poe stuff with Leia - I’m sorry, what? Leia is telling someone they’re being too reckless? Has she forgotten who her brother and husband are again? Or her own self?

Why haven’t we gotten much on Canto Bright - it’s supposed to be a big piece, right?

I can’t even comment on the Rey Rando stuff, it is too crappy for words (and I was for Rey Random - but not that awful story about her parents). Why go to the trouble of casting Daisy, who looks more like she’s the child of Harrison and Carrie or Mark and SkyMom than Adam Driver does - and then not make her related. If she’s a random, then why?

The Luke stuff is just awful, every bit I’ve seen is worse than the last. The visual dictionary saying he didn’t know about Han dying, him throwing the saber, the milk with the sloth (OMG, that sounds bad), refusing to train Rey, and on and on. Then how he’s supposed to die…and that he never sees Leia again? That proves that these directors don’t give one shit about the characters that aren’t Rey and Kylo.

Because, yes, let’s mention the whole bait and switch with Finn. Because we can argue about the screams on Takodano, because that is just badly put together. We can argue about who’s awakening, although it sure as hell looks like Finn.

But you cannot explain Maz giving Finn Luke’s saber when Han is STANDING RIGHT THERE and has a stronger claim to it by marriage. UNLESS FINN IS FORCE SENSITIVE. You just can’t - unless it’s just simply “well, we need to get the saber to the end of the movie so…congrats, Finn! But it doesn’t mean anything.”

Harder then KK and RJ sucks Adam (Kylo)’s Dick?

yall have no idea how hard i’m gonna be sucking jj abrams dick if he delivers an average film that isn’t a complete shitfest so long as we don’t have to suffer through re//ylo and the butchering/sidelining of all our beloved characters
