Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)

Man this thread is absolutely crazy:panic:
 
Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)

You're wrong. The old were not burned today. They spark against the backlash has just been kindled. And feminism has NOT ruined "The Last Jedi." :lsvader

;)

That line didn’t even make sense, when did it ever die in the first place, to be reborn?

And no, terrible writing and characterization ruined the last Jedi. None of this backlash would exist if the movie had the same messages but was done well.
 
Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)

it means she dont want guys like us in the fandom anymore. it means these movies are made to get rid of us, the last jedi literally spells it out for us
"burn the old, bury the old. the jedi are finished." the movie is literally telling the audience to bury the old fan base

the last jedi LITERALLY lost 1 billion in box office to make sure we let go, to make sure they new generation embraces star wars


it is very naive and silly to dismiss the mainstream news articles talking about the toxic masculinity of the villains in star wars because millennials and younger kids are reading that.

the new wave of fans will pay attention to those articles my friend. we are obsolete and left behind, those articles are for them



wake up broheim

If all this is true....they you should be happy to give it up no? I mean maybe sad that the films are not giving you what you want, but now weeks after it’s over and done, you should be happy to walk away...

I can also suggest you can get your SW fix , in the more traditional archetype but reading the comics and watching the animation.

ah I see you’re breaking power and authority apart, whereas I was coming at it as one thing in this case. In that I agree, but ultimately even free speech can be stopped by those who have power, so which of us truly answers to no one? Unless of course you still spit in their face and go out a legend, but go out you will.

I suppose that ends this little detour

We all go out, my friend. It's how you live, that matters.

I have made reading this forum easier by imagining these guys posting some of the conspiracy stuff....

The guy on the right looks a bit like your sig.:lol

guys it’s a ****ing movie. :lol

It is, yes.:lol
 
Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)

guys it’s a ****ing movie. :lol

It's not just a movie. It's propaganda. Right now, people are talking about "equality" as "representation", which is what socialists call "petite bourgoise", and Nihilists call "slave morality". You're being taught that you're free, so long as people who look like you have freedom. You have power, so long as people who look like you have power. Meanwhile, egalitarianism traditionally involved worker control over production. Corporations, and the shareholders who own them have a vested interest in dissuading you from having that conversation, now more than ever.

It's not just a movie. It's propaganda.

yeah, all art is propaganda, paintings, music, movies, etc. are all designed about self expression which is always bias. propaganda is information designed to be persuasive by being biased. the fact that you’re just now figuring that out is why you’re pissy.

The Last Jedi is not the only movie to do this. They all have. :lol

Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)

Nah I wouldn't say he's wrong. You guys are just wrong on how "radical" the biases being presented in this film actually are. :nana:

And you think that because you agree with the radical biases being presented :lol

i do think it is naive and irresponsible to ignore and downplay those "toxic masculinity" links Spazz posted as being nothing but nonsense or irrelevant because like I said millenials are reading this stuff. Those articles reach millions of people. the whole "males are evil" ideology people are getting from this movie is being talked about and shared by thousands of girls and those articles are adding wood to that fire.
Sure to Us, To you and me they might be silly nonsense and they might be ridiculous click bait, but there are thousands of young people reading them and taking them at face value.

Yeah that statement made a lot of sense. :cuckoo:

Listen not all of us have our balls retract into our bodies any time we see a woman reprimanding a man. You guys would have died in the 70's with Leia mocking and chastising Han during the entire Death Star escape that *she* had to take control of.
 
Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)

What about it? :lol

You think I should be outraged that Kennedy doesn't want to "cater" to me? What the hell does she owe me? Nothing. Make movies that I like and I'll support them, make ones that suck and I won't. Chicks, dudes, whatever as long as the end result is good.

She's not directing the films anyway. She hired Gareth Edwards who *did* cater to me so win/win, lol.

I just yelled “LAUNCH!” at Khev who ran with the death star plans to Capt Antilles! :rock

Ain’t no tin foil hats getting in the way of our mission.

You know I was about to counter that it still didn't make sense to hold back the fighters but your mention of Hux solves the issue for me. The very opening scene established him as bit of an ***** when it came to using TIE's effectively (as the Dreadnaught captain angrily exclaimed "We should have launched fighters five minutes ago!") after Poe stalled to get in position to take out the turrets.

And that's all I needed, something "in universe" to explain why the Fighters weren't covering the Resistance fleet and that's the character flaw of Hux that he relies on his Destroyers too much. Nice work Neal! :rock

Yup Neal is my hero lol

There we go, right on time with the name calling and belittling. Can’t you have a civil conversation without calling someone a sexist for pointing out the facts?

when challenged and frustrated you go straight to insults

"Called you a sexist?" I didn't call anyone anything. How did I insult you personally?
