The first scene with Rose I was thinking "ok, she seems like a fine addition. A bit generic but the actress has some charisma lets see where this goes..."

Then... Oh my god. Kill it with fire. Someone please make her stop.

"This is how we win finn!"

Lol

Wow so defensive. Im just asking..is there a worst character than Rose in the SW universe?

Absolutely there are worse characters in the SW universe. She's not even close.


Prequels are loaded with shittier characters than Rose. Jar Jar, little Anakin, older Anakin, older older Anakin, Sebulba, Watto, battle droids, those Asian guys that blockaded Naboo, this guy:

None of those are worse than rose though.

:thumbsdown:

Joey, stop shaking your head. even though the core concept of the entire star wars mythology is built around the idea that the emotional reason why you do something is more important than what you do, and Empire and Jedi talk about it explicitly, it is totally unreasonable for you to expect someone to remember that sentiment when it is voiced by a girl.

rose’s line is probably the best encapsulation of the light side/dark side dichotomy in all 10 movies. and while holdo and luke clearly sacrifice themselves out of love (see also obi wan and luke in jedi) finn is clearly acting out of hate. he doesnt say ‘i have ti save my friends.’. he says, seething with anger ‘i cant let them win’

I can't stomach pearl jam chat anymore, so all I have left right now is star wars and tournaments.

We need an MCU forum. I could play there all day

Tbh I’m disappointed in rm / whoever split this into a separate thread. It’s exactly the toxic misogynistic racist bullshit narrative fandom has been fighting against the past few months and now it’s seeped in here.

Not fuckin cool

For the record, i dont have a problem with her being a girl. Rey is a girl and her character is awesome. Leia too. Im only talking about what happens with her arc and Finn´s.

I know that. This thread is unnecessary and in bad taste though.

Where are the same threads for the endless amounts of other bad Star Wars characters?

No class and mean spirited to make this one.
