- So how the f*** was The Last Jedi a "SJW" movie again? (SPOILERS!)
I know that anyone who ironically uses the term "SJW" and treats them as anything other than a boogeyman of the right should not be taken seriously whatsoever. But..... What?! Did you guys watch the same movie I did? Because I watched a movie where the Space Nazis, led by a white male (alien?), who was then usurped by another white male, were decimating the "SJW" Alliance (Which had female leadership mind you.) real hard until Luke Skywalker, a white male, bailed them out with only a handful of people left. Let's look at things in more detail: -Rose, the "ugly" Asian. Totally a SJW pick! I mean, why else would they cast her instead of a hot Asian?! I mean, it's not like her character is meant to be a bit of an outcast or anything of the sort and having a supermodel in the role would make that less believable..... nope! Gotta be those nefarious SJWs! Well, what did her character amount to? Nothing. Rose accomplished nothing. Her plan to take out the tracker was ultimately a failure. And then she stopped Finn from sacrificing himself and nearly getting herself killed in the process. Practically dooming what's left of the Alliance in the process since Finn's sacrifice would have bought them more time. And then cue white male Luke Skywalker coming to the rescue..... Oh, and she apparently lived at Canto Bight for a time and yet failed to disclose to Finn their parking regulations. Which led to disaster later on..... -Holdo, who is apparently "super SJW" due to her purple hair, is portrayed as an entirely incompetent leader. You guys didn't catch that? Oh? You thought her treatment of Poe was supposed to be about a strong woman putting an uppity man in his place?! Hahahahahahahahahaha..... well if that was the intention, it completely blew up. Because that's not what I took from the subplot at all. In fact, once Holdo pulled out a gun and started firing upon Poe's friends, I thought it was about to be revealed that Holdo was a First Order double agent who was sabotaging the Alliance on purpose! That's how bad a leader she was. And I doubt I was alone in this mindset. She f***ed things up, and then she had to pay the price by kamikaze bombing Snoke's ship to try to salvage what's left of the Alliance. (That light speed thing was all kinds of f***ed up..... but that's not what we're discussing here.) The man had the right idea while the woman was in the wrong. The man's plan could have saved the Alliance if only the woman cooperated with him instead of being a hardass and forcing the man to try to do it behind her back. Perhaps sending someone more competent and familiar with Canto Bight regulations than Rose. .....This is the exact opposite of what a hypothetical SJW movie's narrative would pull. -DJ. A Hispanic man who is portrayed as a criminal with a drug problem. And he ends up selling out Finn and Rose. ..... Do I need to say anything more? -Leia spent half of the movie unconscious. Oh yeah. Girl power. *Rolls eyes.* Despite her lack of accomplishments, her moments were certainly the bright spots of the film. RIP Carrie Fisher. I've never seen anything this beautiful in the entire galaxy... All right, give me the bomb. -Ultra Magnus |
-And finally, Rey. What a Mary Sue, so perfect and can do no wrong! .....Except that the narrative painted her as unprepared and naive. (A lot like the OT did with Luke, actually.) Complete with her even being tempted by the Dark Side! Kylo Ren preyed upon her naive belief that he could be turned. And then she had to be saved by Kylo Ren, which let me remind you is a white male, from Snoke. Who MIGHT be an alien but looks an awful lot like a white male human. She walked straight into a trap and was helpless until a man rescued her. (Granted, she later rescued him in the ensuing battle.) She saved the remaining Alliance at the very end. But..... that's about all she really accomplished in the film. Even with Luke, it had to be Yoda who finally talked some sense into him. All Rey really did to him was fill him with concern. Oh, but she beat an injured and emotionally distraught Kylo Ren in the previous film. What a Mary Sue! So let's review here: the "diveristy pick" women made constant mistakes that cost lives, a Latino is portrayed as a backstabbing criminal, and when the mentally unstable white man with magic powers took charge and cornered the Alliance, the only thing that could save them was another white man with magic powers. If this was supposed to be a "SJW" movie, it sure did a s***ty job of convincing us white men are the lowest forms of life (Although I see plenty of white men making that argument by whining about discrimination against them that isn't f***ing happening unless they subscribe to s***ty beliefs like Nazism.....) and that women are the most precious and valuable creatures in the universe. Or whatever the f*** the imaginary "SJW" is supposed to believe. The Last Jedi certainly had some pretty huge problems. (We're left wondering just who the f*** Snoke was.....) But "forced diversity" (So was Lando "forced diversity" back in the OT? Was Mace Windu a god damn Jedi Master "SJW pandering" in the PT?), "hamfisted girl power", and other forms of "SJW pandering" had nothing to do with it. Because it simply wasn't a thing. Seriously. There are no SJWs. They are not a thing. Stop overreacting to seeing non-white people and be more critical of the film's writing if you must hate on it.

Your opinions about Bore of the Walking makes any post you make invalid. .....Yeah, I basically gave you a "no u" response. It's as much as you deserve. I've never seen anything this beautiful in the entire galaxy... All right, give me the bomb. -Ultra Magnus |
I sure do wish that degenerate bigots like Moviebob were just make believe boogeymen. I really do. I keep the dope fiends higher than the Goodyear Blimp |
emagdnE posted... Bore of the Walking Yeah sorry he has a point. Pretty much number one on my list of reasons never to take somebody seriously is 'they didn't like BOTW' Which is sad, because you definitely have a point. So get your Zelda s*** handled bro |
Isn't Moviebob that guy who made fun of GamerGate? Must be an agreeable bloke. "Kill everyone now! Condone first degree murder! Advocate cannibalism! Eat <poop>! Filth is my politics! Filth is my life!" - Babs Johnson |
