honestly i think its awesome that your daughter loves Star Wars, and you guys can share that together!
Maybe Phasma sashays too.
I can see her killing someone, then turning on her heels, flashing her cape and strutting away.
How's that for sexist?
I'm confused... Are you calling me a troll? Whatever... I'll let my 10 year old daughter know that grown men think its cool, and she's just a fool for having an opinion that turning a trooper into a girl and giving her shiny armor is dumb just cause shes a girl. Maybe there's another reason for it? I don't know.. I'll have to see the movie first.... I guess my opinions aren't allowed unless I agree with other people.
So what, Girls can't be knights?
Exactly! You just killed your little girl's own argument. Please re-teach her.
ok enough fun... Phasma will be a badass. Maybe she'll kill Finn or some other whiny male character.
Fine...since nobody else will take the bait, I will...Mayhem is my name after all.
Why do you keep bringing up your 10 year old daughter? Is the opinion of a 10 year old somehow more or less valid than the rest of ours? Also, you could have set your daughter straight and said "no dear, she's wearing chromed out armor because shes a total badass and wants to wear it, and since she's bigger than pretty much every other person in the first order and they are all probably very intimdated by her, nobody is going to say no to her. Gender has nothing to do with it" but you didn't, you just said "yeah little girl, it's because women LOVE shiny stuff, now go grab daddy another beer and ask mommy when dinner will be ready", then you hopped online to scream sexism from the highest tower just because you decided your little princess and her 10 year old brain knew more than the people who created the character, designed the armor, wrote the script, took on and acted the role, directed the film, edited the film, and so on and so forth....
Your opinion totally is allowed and respected here. However, the opinions of everyone else are as well and god bless the internet for being a place where those of us with differing opinions can banter back and forth over things like this.
Damn, that was fun. Thanks for that. I truly look forward to your reply, and just in case you actually made it this far before cranking your father rage up to 11, I hope you know I meant no disrespect to your daughter, at all, in any shape, form or way.
Mayhem out-
Why she gotta kill the Black hero.... jeeze...
Why she gotta kill the Black hero.... jeeze...
I can't get excited about any of these new characters. Until the movie actually comes out, there's no telling.
Phasma and Kylo Ren could be as cool as Vader and Boba Fett from the original trilogy. On the other hand, they could be as lame as Jango Fett, or Anakin Sywalker, from the PT.
Not going to pre-order until the movie comes out and I can see if these are characters I'd even want on my shelf...
