The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
ON a complete tangent but you’ll see those most vocal TLJ haters saying it’s a sjw wankfest and forcing modern agendas is just box ticking, and has no place in Star Wars
Yet they miss the whole thing in Solo about L3 and her whole droids rights crusade and how that’s a subtle dig at sjw crusaders and how overbearing they can be.
Then again they didn’t see the film cos they boycotted it so..
I don't want to get too far into it in this thread, but the mis-characterization of L3 by the haters is hilarious to me. And, again, just like with Rose and Rey and others, plays into the inherent male bias/misogyny rampant in society. Dude-Bros are so threatened that they have to attack a fucking robot? Seriously? The fact these insecure men automatically call her a "Fembot" or the like is a perfect illustration. It's hilarious how that's the first place they go when the implications are far larger. Maybe if a male actor had voiced the character. But alas...
Rose meeting Finn is the funniest scene in TLJ. I looked up a top ten funny moments from TLJ and this wasn’t listed, but none of those mentioned were all that funny. Like Luke brushing off the blaster fire or tossing the light sabre, or anything with those terrible small animals on that island, or the whole Kylo/Hux thing.

That phrasing made me laugh out loud. That's awesome.

Those guys main complaint on twitter and reddit etc is white men are being forced out and it’s all a sjw agenda and women are taking over. And accuse anyone of agreeing with it if being a soyboy and sjw. They miss the blatant irony that their own sense of worth or masculinity is so fragile and easily threatened. It’s laughable. But they don’t see it. As it relates to Star Wars it’s even worse. They got upset. About a female droid.
You couldn’t make it up.
What’s happened in all these guys lives? Are they literally mid 30s/40s forever alone living in their parents attic? I know that’s a stereotype but it really does look like that’s the case

«This is a fun video, mostly because you can literally see director Rian Johnson realizing Tran was right for the part in real time as it unfolds. Watching the audition tape, Johnson says it felt like the character I had in my head when I was writing…showed up to read.»

Lol you are so full of shit. Insecurity is getting butthurt that people were annoyed by this stupid, unfunny, creepy robot that was clearly created by ideologically and politically driven assholes that can't write.

Do you even disagree that she is a "fembot"? It's the only reason you seem to like her. You automatically love all this shit because it pushes your idiotic ideology. That is enough for you. You do this over and over and over. It's completely dishonest.

I didnt even like the robot that much. Least favorite droid. Again, do you believe everything that you type? Burt, calm down. You are just as ridiculous on the other end of the spectrum. Get off your own shit.

That discussion was dissected from that thread and made into its own thread. Why? That hasn't, to my knowledge, ever happened in any of these other Star Wars discussions. And the new thread wasn't simply called "Rose Tico" or "Who is the Worst Star Wars Character" or something similar. Focus was given specifically to her and why the character sucks, and it felt really icky.
I split off the conversation because there was 2 pages of complaining about the character. I figured the debate could continue on it's own outside of the The Last Jedi thread. God knows it gets a lot of discussion on the Internet in general.
I named it with a tongue-in-cheek reference to Vinyl's post that started the discussion. I don't care what it's named.
Also, splitting threads is hardly new to RM. Hell, most of my splits are in the Star Wars forum b/c dime can't hold a thought in his head while posting about The Star Wars.
Oh, I know. We (you guys) split stuff off all the time. 9 times out of 10 it makes perfect sense to me.
Honestly, I think you guys do a fantastic job keeping this place inhabitable. Like I said, I didn't think it was done with malicious intent. Just sometimes actions have consequences beyond what we think about at the time. It happens.
Inhabitable? Joe i ve seen other forums and my god. RM is such a cool place.

Just ignore him, Strat. Burt needs to lash out when he thinks he's being called out on his own insecurity. Like most of this man-children populating the internet, he doesn't have the intellectual dexterity to hold two thoughts in his mind. He can only post nonsensical memes, jokes that are (at best) infantile and in poor taste, or come out swinging hoping to land a sucker punch. I'd say laugh it off, but being laughed at is probably the reason he's as angry and insecure as he is. Tuning out is the only thing he'll respond to. Eventually he'll get bored a pick something else to try and make others feel shitty about.

Again, this pretty much a complete lie. Yes, there will always be trolls on the internet. What a shock. But the overwhelming majority are not doing anything close to complaining that "white men are being forced out." That isn't the argument that is being made. I haven't seen a single youtube video or negative review/breakdown/rant that has made this argument. This has nothing to do with your bullshit terms like "fragile masculinity" or any of that SJW nonsense.
Do you not see the irony of claiming that they call anyone who likes these movies soyboys, when in the same post you claim that they are all pathetic loser incels who live in their parents basement?
What I am seeing is a bunch of powerful people using language of oppression to cover their asses and deflect legit criticism with claims that everyone who didn't like their shit movie is an incel living in their parents' basement who hate women and minorities. Its blatantly dishonest bullshit. And you swallow it up.
Its Ghostbusters all over again (although in this case they had the good sense to not make it a marketing campaign, they waited until after a movie failed to unleash the "everyone who doesn't like me hates women" bullshit).
