Yeah I Can Buy Leia In The Since That She Has Had 30 Years To Pick Up Some Tricks...so Some Shielding

The problem is we don't have numbers. Ergo sure it looks like Lionheart was slaughtering a bunch of Huntsmen but without knowing how many Huntsmen are actually active in Mistral, this could simply be a surgical strike against possible Ozpin Supporters who are Friends or Acquaintances of Qrow. But without actual numbers its impossible to tell. What I dont get is why is school out for anyone...we just had a Kingdom Academy go down, massive grimm attacks across the world and plenty of dead huntsmen...this especially didnt make sense in Vol 4 when Ironwood did it. Lionheart is turncoat...but I cant see why Ironwood would sanction a normal summer vacation when he is locking down the kingdom and prepping for war... But yeah Ozpin got curtailed by his council often enough so it seems weird no one called Lionheart on his BS. Ironwood at least stacked the votes.

Also what kind of weird dystopia is going on that Huntsman started inexplicably dropping like flies all around Mistral but none of the remaining ones said “hey, something suspicious is going on” before they all hit the dirt? I understand fully that these people are warriors and warriors often don’t make it back home, but at no point did anyone realize the massive increase in MIAs and think to speak about it? Qrow figured out something unusual was going on in a DAY after it’d happened. You’re telling me no one noticed during? I don’t buy it

I hated JJ’s Finn but at least Finn had fucking plot relevance and some agency. RJ doesn't even give him that...so will see what JJ wants to do. Never did I think I be praying for JJ to save Finn...and Poe. JJ has more power this time against KK then he did last time though. He made Disney 2 Billion and KK has fired far too many directors to do it again.

do you think Finnrey still has a chance? Or is it just Finnrose and Reylo now?

its all abusive ships from here on out!!! 

nah but really idk… if jj retcons the shit out of this film maybe finnpoe or finnrey will get a chance but… dont put too much hope on that. we cant even get finn a barebones arc idk about a good romance. ;/ 

Basically it just feels because RJ was willing to dickride Kylo Ren and Adam Driver so hard who we know KK loves since Adam didn't even have to audition. RJ got himself Carte Blanche to do whatever he want. I mean JJ is the one who wanted John (and his execution was poor), KK never wanted John at all. So I am not all surprised and what is going down for FInn. Although I should note this is the fucking opposite of how they sold us Finn and Rose in the lead up. Where Rose was a big Fan  of Finn. Instead it seems will get another does of a Female Partner outshining Finn until Phasma. 

What does surprise me though is KK letting RJ making massive lore changes and retcons to the Force that override fucking George Lucas in the Luke Skywalker part of the plot. That is what surprises me. I knew it was bad sign when RJ got along with KK so well unlike all the other directors and got a new trilogy.

But apparently RJ is genius for Woobyifying another “Bad Boy“ White Male while marginalizing the POC to forgettable plot line and comic relief. Its not like we never seen this shit before. I get enough of the kid glove treatment for white monsters in the news thank you very much.

This doesn’t even make any sense story wise. Every Resistance member knows that Finn risked his life to stop Starkiller Base. Rose suddenly being “what, a traitor” makes zero fucking sense. If Finn wanted to betray the Resistance he would have done nothing and just let the FO blow them out of the sky.

Rian Johnson is willfully stupid when it comes to any of the characters of color but especially to Finn. Of course it makes no sense! But of course he doesn’t care because he’s too busy using his 2 brain cells on creating a fascist-loving white story for his lily white actors! It makes no sense because he doesn’t give a fuck about Finn.

Looks like I was right its a good thing Lando dodged the RJ bullet...Lando drunk and selling out the Resistance to the First Order? That be as bad as Luke and far worse then Han. 

'The Last Jedi’ Rian Johnson Talks About Not Including Lando Calrissian

Billy Dee Williams' Lando Calrissian is a "Star Wars" fan favorite and 'The Last Jedi' director Rian Johnson explains the character's absence.

I have to quote one of my favorite A-Team episodes here, to sort of convey the awfulness:

Murdock: We’ve hit rock bottom, now the only place we can go is up

(Person the team is rescuing pulls a gun on them)

Face: This is up?

Well you see that be in character and this movie was all about making Luke look bad so Kylo could look good. But that begs question what was the explanation for how Luke couldn't sense Han Dying or an entire Solar System disappearing while hiding in a Force Nexus?

To be honest, the minute Luke learned that Kylo Ren killed Han Solo, he should have geared up and trained Rey and gotten to the Resistance pronto. The minute. 

Yeah it was bad in TFA but this is worst not just because now they should know it was bad idea but also cause were once again lied to do about Finn with the dynamic described to us in marketing not existing in the actual movie. Beyond that also at least you can make the case Rey had a reason to attack Finn, Rose has no such Reason and Rose goes a step further by shocking Finn until he falls Unconscious after just getting off the medical bay. The fact that it will be played for laughs makes my blood boil. 

I keep thinking about how we were given the impression that Finn and Rose’s story would be a cool team up and that Rose would think he’s a Big Deal, but the storybook leaks basically give us a completely different dynamic, one where Rose drags an unwilling Finn around by the collar and scolds him for even trying to leave, and keeps him from leaving by force, and I hate that. I really hate that. It’s like the weak and questionable parts of Finn and Rey’s interaction before Harrison got injured and JJ reshot some stuff and changed their dynamic going forward because the antagonistic stuff wasn’t working. So why copypaste that bad dynamic that JJ already famously decided needed to be fixed? Actually make it worse? Bleh.

For a second, I didn't realize you were sarcastic.

what a beautiful day to hate rian johnson for destroying the skywalker legacy for literally no reason

You say that but its not like the Magic Story-line didn't involve killing characters during major conflicts to raise stakes. Heck I argue it was more Game of Thrones in the past after all even Urza died. So I think blaming it on Game of Thrones, is disingenuous to the extreme. I mean the end game against Yawgmoth resulted in all but 2 of the Nine Titans dying and most of the Weatherlight crew as well. Sealing the Time Rifts? Again more dead characters. More recently Venser Dead. Elspeth Dead. So MtG never had a problem killing major characters in the past but now the Gatewatch has unlimited plot armor.

The Gatewatch they go up against the Eldrazi and Bolas and lose not a single member.  I can make a case for Bolas not killing most of the Gatewatch. Vess is obvious. Jace could be played on Ravnica since he is the guildpact. Nissa has a unique ability with her leyline stuff. After that though the case for keeping Gideon and especially Chandra around seems rather nonexistant to me. Gideon maybe cause Bolas proved his ability is useless and you want an idiot steering the enemy team as the leader. But what reason does Bolas have for keeping Chandra around?

That's one thing a lot of people hate, that winning over the Eldrazi was an "easy" victory, they were built up so much and so well in the first Zendikar block only to be turned into another generic villain to be killed in the BfZ block. And Hour of Devastation was barely even a setback, I think a lot of people were expecting half of them to die and the other half to be turned into Bolas thralls or at least one of them suffering from something that couldn't be cursed in one block.

They were built up so much and so well because you never actually saw them. It’s the Boba Fett effect, the moment you have to explain them they stop being cool. So the choice was either to literally never deal with them cause they’re too OP, or to make them more manageable. We still don’t know if there’s more to the story there, as Ugin flat out states.

Did you know that people don’t have to die for there to be stakes? There’s a really toxic attitude out there from grimdark fiction like Game of Thrones that is easily proven untrue by decades of genre literature never requiring it.

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):

I would be concerned again especially since the comics was a revolving door for POC outside of Nico. Alex Killed then went to White Room then to Hell somehow and got rez. Victor looks like he is about to be rezzed from getting killed in comics. Ultron tie in will be tricky. and Xavin eh that was really a mess ending with Xavin sacraficing themselves for Karolina and lets be honest Karolina was a “insert insult of choice” to Xavin.

Was it necessary to “hispanicwash” Molly Hayes into Molly Hernandez?

Molly Hayes

Molly Hernandez

Before the backlash I know I’m gonna receive for this post… I’m Mexican living in Mexico, ergo I’m “PoC” but it was completely unnecessary to change the race of the character. I’m completely against whitewashing, I believe character race must stay as the source material. But come on, this change was completely unnecessary.
