he’s a stupid Trump hating lib
Cocaine a hell of drug.
Good, now go away stupid leftist.
It’s fiction, Mark. It isn’t real. Poke it too hard and it becomes comedy, or something worse.
We all still want a world full of love and peace. But some of us don’t want it by selling out our souls and bodies to subjugation and thought control.
Not your fault it was the Social Justice Warrior that made you Stink ,LOL
He could’ve easily stopped it if he’d simply refuse to do it. Dude wasnt hurting for money. He chose to assassinate his own character’s character for cash. He could’ve fought Disney on the direction of that nonsense.
Luke, I served with Captain Kirk. I know Captain Kirk. Captain Kirk is a friend of mine. Luke, your Star wars is no Star trek.
The powers that be at Disney seemed to have said “we want this movie to be all about girl power, so girls rule all and they’re better, smarter, cooler than anyone. But the marketing guys say we must have the old cast too. Fine, well Leia will be a big important person but the rest will just be in background until we can dispense with them once and for all. Then our feminist galaxy story can finally be freed of all that nonsense from the past!”
Who really cares??????
I just watched this movie last night. Friend recorded it off netsux.
It wasn’t bad ! I don’t see what everyone was going on about the politics of the whole thing.
Yeah, the bridge on the ship was NOTHING but women, and the men were bungling but I lead that to simply bad writing.
The female heroines were the shallowest, 4-th grader english product characters ever written. the CGI was awful - I mean worse than episodes 1 through 3.
That asian chick, the one I can’t figure quite how she got a job, was just the worst. And in every scene that should have been “Slave trader” it was “Arms dealer”
Translation
The check was big, it cleared the bank and I needed the money
Why does anyone listen to these people? They were nobodies before Lucas put them in his movies, and having been in those movies does not make them some sort of Yoda instilled with knowledge and wisdom. All that being in those movies made them was wealthy nobodies.
If it’s of any consolation, guys, while I disagree heavily with Hamill’s politics (save for maybe the bit about the Second Amendment, which compared to Lucas and Harrison Ford demanding a full weapons ban/gun control, Hamill supporting the right to a musket’s pretty much pro-second amendment by comparison. Better than nothing at least.), and also have contempt for his trying to get his potential grandchild aborted, at least he acknowledges that the 1960s generation was a failure and may have made the world worse off than before. That’s actually pretty commendable behavior from someone of that generation to admit it, especially an otherwise radical leftist like Hamill, considering I’ve seen and even personally experienced several people of that generation who were nostalgic to that time period, taught it was the greatest time, and even indicated they DID change the world for the better even when it’s pretty clear they did not change it for the better. Case in point, I had a Chaucer literature professor at Oglethorpe University who wouldn’t shut up about his nostalgia for free sex or his lamenting that the Equal Rights Amendment (despite those things having absolutely nothing to do with Jeffrey Chaucer and his literary works), and the guy was old enough to have experienced it first-hand. I believe the professor’s name was Dr. Richard Barton Palmer. You can also look at George Lucas, who STILL brags about his rooting for and even basing his heroes from Star Wars on the Vietcong and basically protesting the Vietnam War, going as far as to make America the enemy in his films. Or Hideo Kojima, who seems to think the 1960s and the 1970s were all about May 1968, student protests, free sex and drugs, and all of that based on his commentary for Snake Eater or the briefing files in Peace Walker (especially Cecile’s May 1968 tape).
““It is tragic. I’m not a method actor, but one of the techniques a method actor will use is to try and use real-life experiences to relate to whatever fictional scenario he’s involved in. The only thing I could think of, given the screenplay that I read, was that I was of the Beatles generation – ‘All You Need Is Love’, ‘peace and love’.
“I thought at that time, when I was a teenager: ‘By the time we get in power, there will be no more war, there will be no racial discrimination, and pot will be legal.’ So I’m one for three. When you think about it, [my generation is] a failure. The world is unquestionably worse now than it was then.””
That’s a tacit admission to a failure if you ask me, a failure of a generation. I don’t expect most people of that generation to directly acknowledge they failed to make the world better, let alone people of that generation who are explicitly of the left. If anything, people like that are more likely to narcissistically insist everyone was doing it at the time and even imply such WAS successful without even acknowledging any bad elements. If there’s anything Hamill actually deserves respect for, it’s his admission right there about the sixties generation. I certainly know Lucas would never admit to that (heck, James Cameron’s latest AMC series even had Lucas bragging that he based the Rebels on the Vietcong and pretty much acknowledging that, yes, he DID base them on terrorists in a rather proud manner).
