I’m skipping this one. I’m done with opening weekend attendance to KK produced movies
 
Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (May 25th, 2018)

Just got out of the Tanzania premiere.
It's a great flick. One of the best in the series.
Lando steals the show. Can't wait for his solo film.
Lots of non-canon references for old fans.
Surprising cameo at the end!
Will be watching at least two more times next week.

Just watched a video of that Canadian ET host (and SW obsessive) who totally hated TLJ doing a spoiler-free review of Solo - he seemed to like it but said it should be called Chewy.


Guess again... Russians WERE in Tanzania this week. Riddick speaks pravda.:lecture

Emilia Clarke points out a sexist presupposition held by the Commissars in the media:

Emilia Clarke: Stop Referring to Female Characters as ‘Strong,’ It’s Sexist

Emilia Clarke wants everyone to know that she doesn’t play strong female leads, just female leads.

In an interview at the Cannes Film Festival on Tuesday as part of the Kering Women in Motion talks, the “Solo: A Star Wars Story” lead condemned the usage of the phrase “strong women” by journalists as sexist. She said its usage is senseless for a female lead.

“If it’s not strong, what is it? Are you telling me there’s another option, that there’s a weak option?” Clarke said. “You think a lead in a movie is going to be a weak woman? It just doesn’t even bear having the conversation, so enough already with the strong women, please.”

Clarke used male leads as an example by pointing out that they’re rarely referred to as “strong men,” unless they’re physically strong. She said the solution to her frustration is to eliminate the phrasing entirely.

“Unless I’m packing guns I don’t know about, then let’s change that,” she continued.

Yup. She nailed it.

Eventually any idealogical/social movement turns into the thing it was against to begin with.
Clarke's position is simply logical. It may not even be a feministic one.

Nice one Emilia Clarke. Lets have a bit less of this verbal pandering, preferably none. Let the characters speak for themselves.
