Great so we lose "Spoiler"

The Grand Inquisitor who looks like a really cool bad ass adapted from the animated show, and we get an uninteresting agenda character as our main villain, cause shes black check and a woman check, so automatically she kills the far superior male character, cause of course she does cause she has a vagina.

Who looks more like a Star Wars villain? Grand Inquisitor? or this lanky little black woman with attitude? Doesn't matter the woman wins, everytime, cause agenda. She'll likely kill the other male Inquisitor as well before its over and it'll be a squads of 3 Inquisitor females.

Yawn

My reaction when the show was announced.

[–] Boricanator (1375) 2 years ago

Is the Gran Inquisitor really dead? Rebels is still canon. It would not make sense that he would die here.

[–] Mister Babadook (2624) 2 years ago

I dunno he looked dead to me, she got him right through gut with a lightsaber. But at the very least he's out of commission for the remainder of this series i'd say while the female takes over as primary Inquisitor after Obi-Wan.

I found that there was no reason for her to kill The Grand Inquisitor (what she said was just a bs excuse-motive)... and the actress playing this role is terrible, one of the least threatening villains in Star Wars yet... to me she came across as what a fan wearing cosplay would look like if put into a Star Wars movie-TV show.

She wanted toe top spot. She wanted to bring Obi Wan to Vader. Pretty classic motive.

Just cut it off son.

[–] TandyMan (10412) 2 years ago

Can't have him around. He's actually cooler than Darth Vader.

[–] kuatorises (7467) 2 years ago

Weird how the woman's race bugs you this much...

[–] Mister Babadook (2624) 2 years ago

Oh ffs, i knew there would be one comment saying this, and its you! congratulations! what took you so long?

I'm not bothered by her fucking race, i'm saying the creators of the show are using her race and sex to check boxes, and its pretty obvious. Shes a terrible actress, shes not in the role for her amazing acting. She sticks out like a sore thumb with the Inquisitors, no business at all being part of their squad but to check boxes, why else you think shes not pale like the others? gotta show us shes black.

I love Lando, i love Gideon, two black characters from the Star Wars Universe, but they're great actors and great characters, and theres no agenda behind them.

Only one problem, Vader. The black chick will have to bow before white male in a black suit Vader. I cant see a way around this one.

[–] Mister Babadook (2624) 2 years ago

Eh James Earl Jones is black and the suit is black, Vader feels more black than white tbh, even though the character in the suit is technically white.

[–] LoveCatsHateDogs (1546) 2 years ago

No because when they meet, the woke writers will make Vader trip over one of those little robots that runs about cleaning. Everyone present will roll their eyes. Then he will be like "Sorry, sorry" and take his place snivelling behind her...because it was written by blue haired vegan wokists.

Also they will write into Vader's backstory that he touched a bunch of kids.

After that he will follow her around and do small errands for her and serve as the show's comic relief.

"not bothered by race"

*goes on a rant mentioning her race and gender*

You could not make this up.

[–] Mister Babadook (2624) 2 years ago

Lol sure buddy, i mentioned her race and gender talking about why i brought them up, not ranting and hating on her gender and race. And i then brought up 2 other black Star Wars characters that i like, so you're really grasping at straws trying to make me racist, if i was racist i wouldn't be hiding it, have you seen racists online? they're not shy bro.

[–] Boricanator (1375) 2 years ago

Oh ffs, i knew there would be one comment saying this, and its you! congratulations! what took you so long?

You knew it because you’re racist.

You denying it is like Amber Turd denying she’s an abuser.

Just accept it. We would have more respect if you do.

[–] Mister Babadook (2624) 2 years ago

Heres the thing, Amber Turd denies what she is cause she knows it would fuck her career and cost her millions, what do i have to lose by admitting i'm racist? absolutely nothing, fake name, no one knows me, not a public figure, literally nothing to lose by saying i'm racist, so why the fuck would i lie?

[–] kuatorises (7467) 2 years ago

In your OP all you talk about is her race and sex, you say nothing about her performance.

[–] Boricanator (1375) 2 years ago

Hence, why I made the thread about rightwingers.

[–] moviebuff00 (434) 2 years ago

if she wasnt black or a woman, would the story have been written this way? answer this question honestly.

[–] christomacin (4539) 2 years ago

What identifies her as black in this role, plot-wise or dialog-wise?

[–] TheArgentinian (6478) 2 years ago

Do you always get triggered when you see women of color in a non-passive role? Maybe you should stick to watching old Hollywood movies, where they only play servants.

[–] Mister Babadook (2624) 2 years ago

Not when they're a good actor and the character is not solely in the role to check boxes. I'm a fan of plenty of black women in strong leading roles, i love Zendaya in Euphoria, i love Pam Grier in Foxy Brown, i love Viola Davis in How To Get away With Murder, i mean i could go.

But what i see in this show is a bad actress and a character that doesn't fit at all, and is obviously shoehorned into the script to check boxes.

[–] millsey72 (9613) 2 years ago

Are you sure she is a woman? Are you a biologist?
