As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

They should have made more characters pansexual.

That's what people want.

If by pansexual, you mean hot lesbians, yes.
It's not me, it's someone else.

To my knowledge, there's no evidence that Chewbacca isn't a flaming homosexual. His wookie growl might actually have like a really homosexual lisp. We wouldn't know. They should explore that.

It's what Star Wars fans want.

He only slept with clearly female aliens, though.

I don't remember him boning McCoy, Spock, or Scotty.

I don't give a fuck about this universe anymore so I saw a spoiler about a big cameo in the film. Interesting.

Oh, also, there's a droid that is literally a SJW. It was very fucking stupid.

Box office is WAY below estimates and expectations.

It's not what you would think of when you say "bomb", but many, many (legit) sites are calling it just that, a bomb.

Good.

Fuck you Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson.

It's basically been downhill since Ewoks. I would say since Holiday Special but Empire was pretty good. And the first act of Return, where they wrecked Jabba's operation, was pretty good.

The rest sucks balls.

Solo flopped because it starred a white guy.

That is a real opinion piece a "journalist" wrote and had published. Apparently, facts are meaningless these days.

Go back and watch that pile of shit TLJ again. That whole movie was SJW bullshit.

Yes, I saw from the first viewing that being a white, male, cocky, brash cowboy was now a bad thing.

But the solo Droid is LITERALLY a warrior for social justice, with the same ability to annoy the characters around it.

I will go to my grave blaming the SJW Robot for the bombing of that movie.

That article sucks. It gives the film two lame excuses for bombing, including the studios "SW fatigue" bullshit, but never mentions what is really happening with fan backlash over the handling of the franchise.

Yeah, "SW fatigue" would be legit if 10,000 horror movies (the most profitable genre) didn't come out every year or 100 superhero movies that constantly smash box office records.

That robot exists because of Kathleen Kennedy. She is the problem with SW.
