Think back at when michelle rodriguez said instead of turning famous superheroes female or black, that they should create brand new heroes

She was crucified.

Did she come back three days later?

This just in:

'Solo' is the worst 'Star Wars' movie since 'Attack of the Clones,' according to critics

"Solo: A Star Wars Story" doesn't come to theaters until May 25, but the reviews are already in - and the Force doesn't seem to be as strong with this "Star Wars" movie.

As of Wednesday morning, "Solo" had a 72% critic score on the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, based on over 80 reviews.

That's bad for a "Star Wars" movie. While it's not as bad of a score as the worst-reviewed movie in the saga - "The Phantom Menace" - it's still the lowest since "Attack of the Clones" in 2002.

Business Insider's Jason Guerrasio said that "Solo's" third act lags and that it's the first "Star Wars" movie to make him worried about franchise fatigue.

"The conclusion of the movie is stale, filled with clichés, and tries too hard to set the foundation for future 'Solo' movies by featuring one of the most random cameos you'll ever see in a movie," Guerrasio said in his review.

So there you have it. Factor in the boycott and Kathleen Kennedy is probably feeling very nervous right now.

But I thought Disney paid off/threatened critics to ensure their films got good reviews? That's the only possible way TLJ could have a score over 90%, right? So ... if that was all lies and deceit, should we not assume that the 70% score is also equally tainted, or does it only matter when the conspiracy fits the narrative? I'm confused.

The latest update on the narrative is that RT is paid to tilt borderline reviews to positive. So Solo is only moderately fresh.

I know, it’s hard to keep up with all the doll board intel. :lol

WNERD be like

You want proof? Here:

'Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ is the Luke Skywalker movie you’re looking for

'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' is the movie fans deserve

Say that with a straight face or without being cynical. TLJ was so heavy handed with SJWism that critics didn't want to risk being labeled a sexist by giving it an honest review. That's what happenned imo.

Also keep in mind that many critics who gave Solo an overall negative review still gave it a positive score.
