I just saw "bad plot" and "bad storytelling" in the first two movies of the new Star Wars trilogy. (I haven't yet seen the third because of the aforementioned "bad plot" and "bad storytelling" present in the first two).

It's perfectly all right to dislike the new Star Wars trilogy. I dislike them because the writing is really bad and the plot is nonsensical. However, if all a person can see about those movies is "one long feminism and diversity propaganda showcase", that sounds very much like the words of someone who resents seeing women or people of colour getting the spotlight focus instead of white men specifically because they are not white men.


Those movies? As said I think the first one was alright. As far as I remember it had a female and a black man in the leads. Please think at least for a moment before commenting. The second movie on the other hand was simply ridiculous in its preachines. End of story. And yes I agree, it was also just a poor movie in general.

Well, if anything, those films completely derailred what they wanted to do with inclusion. Finn after the first film became the "black sidekick", a comic relief that just follows Rey like a lapdog.
Rey is simply ridiculous. There has been a lot of leaks regarding studio interference for her to appeal to woke audiences by making her step on the face of stablished characters (Luke) and pretty much all male characters. Her godlike aspects were a demand from Kathleen Kennedy, the original character was supposed to be a padawan like Luke was in the second trilogy.

It is bad enough that Star Wars and half the others franchises around got destroyed by Socialjusticewarriorism. Remember: go woke, go broke...


No. Next.

If writers create feminist, gay, bissexual characters organically, i.e, it is imperative that they have those traits, then great. But do not make Lando be "gay" for droids. It is retarded.


Libertarian eh? That's another word for "fascist".

I think it is better to keep the current politics of the real world out of a games/movies and other art products,
before someone very loud in TV gets offended, by a binary cis-gender-phobic-white-man,
or by anyone who forgets to pretend, that any of this makes sense.


Unless it is done well, but it is very hard to do propaganda well...



I think this should be moved to an other topic, and not left at BG 3 forum, this whole topic just brings "bad luck"...

That is the plan, at least in more general terms.

Haha, if only! I mean the idea is somewhere on the agenda but other than it being planned I have no further information other than "probably not imminently". Just a small reorg of what we have at present, hopefully.
