Immense Hirsute Lesbians in Space! It's time has come!
How do you make a space ship look like a warp ten twat instead of a phallus?

One of the most ridiculous force-fed feminist shit was "Moana" cartoon from Disney. All male characters there are cowards, weaklings, idiots or a combination of the above. All female characters, on the other hand, are strong, smart and brave. With no fucking exceptions on both sides. And the release of that shit was perfectly timed for IHLary coronation....

Watched it in the theater when it opened. Waiting for it to come out on appletv to re-watch it. It was over a month ago at this point, but I don't recall that character being overly SJW. Poe basically tells her to fuck off and he does his own things if I recall correctly. Carrie Fischer (sp?) floats back in and puts everyone back in order after rehabbing from being in a vacuum without a space suit.
Yes she is kind of made the savior by light speeding that fucking ship into the enemy, but you should probably have a bigger problem with Rae (sp?) in my opinion if your going the SJW route complaint.
I was ultimately entertained enough and am getting rather disappointed in how everything, literally everything is becoming politicized in some way or another. It's either a bad movie or good movie. Don't judge it based on some political feeling. Not sure why it's necessary to be in THIS or THAT camp, especially when talking about a science fiction movie of all things. It is fake, or so I hope people realize.

That's what you recall/remember of Vice Admiral Gender studies? Interesting.
This is how I remember it (and I just saw it this week).
SPOILERS BELOW
_____________________________________________________________________
The 1st Order begins attacking the Rebel Fleet and decimates it. The Rebels attempt a getaway, Leia gets blown out of the ship's bridge and her along with Admiral Freaking Ackbar are killed instantly, or so we think.
But Leia somehow uses force surviving powers and floats back into the ship like Mary Poppins.
OUT OF NOWHERE, Vice Admiral Gender Studies (Holdo) comes into the scene. No explanation for who she is, just some purple haired vaguely lesbian feminist comes out and is supposedly some battle hardened hero who looks like she came out of the Woman's Resist Marches. I remember someone two rows behind me giving a disgusted laugh when she first appeared on screen followed by multiple giggles. it was just... ridiculous.
Po, who is the next highest ranking officer, but still below Vice Admiral Gender Studies basically says, "We're outnumbered 5 to 1, and literally hours away from being blown away when our fuel runs out, what's the plan?"
Now I haven't served in the military, but ONE WOULD THINK that the CO and XO of a freaking FLEET would discuss the situation and keep each other informed about their tactics and thoughts on the situation.
NOPE. Vice Admiral Gender Studies tells Po to fuck off and mind his own business. Just like that. It's a scene literally written to emasculate the main high testosterone good male via feminist brow beating.
Then she gets to do the whole heroic kamakazi run which destroyed Snoke's flagship. My only question is, from a story perspective, wouldn't ADMIRAL FREAKING ACKBAR have been 10x a better choice? I mean for fucks sake we've only known this purple haired freak for 30-40 minutes. Ackbar has been in the canon for what... 30 years?!
I don't even want to get into the whole "Rich people planet full of child slaves and animals who just want to run free in the grass fields" sub-plot. Or the token asian female who works below deck as ... whatever the fuck she was... and suddenly becomes some heroic pilot who has to save the black guy from himself, and now this interracial couple are in love. Seriously, fuck this movie.
I actually have no problem with Rey, her storyline isn't actually very SJW.
I think it's very odd that someone could watch this abortion of a movie and think, "Nope, NO POLITICAL AGENDA here at all." That's seriously confusing and I wonder if we saw the same movie.

"But for Disney, and for anyone watching, this isn’t really a matter of whether The Last Jedi turns over a billion or more in revenue. That was always an easy target. This is a matter of how well the film succeeds in meeting financial expectations, how well it fulfills the needs of the franchise, and whether it strengthens the Star Wars brand for future projects.
By those measures, The Last Jedi already looks like a dud."
Brand was damaged in the long run for short term gain.
"But wait, there's more. By Tuesday—mere days after opening weekend—that global number was up to an estimated $536 million. (Or $262 million, for the domestic box office.) Deadline reports the film saw the fourth best December Tuesday gross in box office history—impressive, considering school was still in session for most

Exactly. I'm sure the next movie will do pretty good revenue. But just based off user reviews and youtube reviews, a lot of people find this movie frustrating for a lot of the reasons I stated above. Not to mention the story isn't exactly super captivating even if you minus the SJW slant.
I'm done though. Done with the franchise, movies, and anything JJ Abrams related. Seriously, they couldn't leave Star Wars alone. They had to inject this leftist garbage into it, and it really pisses me off because I loved these movies as a kid.

The last two have been bad. The one with the pilot who dies at the end was just boring. This last one was just insulting to anyone with a functioning brain. I literally had to keep myself from being sick at the absolutely magnificent disregard for anything resembling reality, physics, psychology, or science displayed in this film. It was like the producers decided that their art trumped my suspension of disbelief, and went hog wild with effects in any which direction. I mean honestly, BOMBERS of star destroyers who for some fucking reason have to get subjectively “over” a ship in outer fucking space to “drop” a bunch of bombs that look straight out of WWII? Star Wars has always been fantasy, perhaps even a western type of fantasy, but this film showed a breathtaking lack of world building in building a world that made ANY sort of sense! Thus, it’s unrelateable to our world. Thus, we don’t care what happens to it!
It’s a classic mistake made by fiction hacks who forget to make the story relatable to the audience! Instead they stuck in a bunch of side plots that made no sense and advanced the main plot not at all (irrelevant to it as far as i could see). Then Luke “fights” Ben and it’s over.
Fuck.
My five year old probably could have written that. But we’ll never know because she was so bored with the story that she fell asleep in my lap!

Seriously.
Just look at this shit. These are the heroes of the new Star Wars movie. Every MALE main character except the black guy is made to look like an angry head strong idiot (Po, Luke Skywalker). I mean Luke Skywalker gets his ass kicked by Rey in their only confrontation, a girl who has no Jedi training, but you know... girl power.

Sadly - I too got a bit of a political vibe, but I got it WAY more from the first one than the recent one. Heres my take on all the women in the movies:
Rey - Ive grown to tolerate her but was instantly put off by her instantly uber capable HERO complex. She lives in the equivalent of the inland empire, salvaging garbage - no education no training - nothing. Yet within days she is capable of flying the millennium falcon AND incapacitate the sniveling apparently weak as shit young darth vader guy in a LIGHT SABER DUEL??? Ridiculous.
Young Asian Chick - slightly put off, but whatevs had this been the extent of the catering to the empowered womens thing, I would have had no problem with the franchise.
Laura Dern - honestly, I didn't give a shit about her and really didn't get anything political from the fuck off Po exchange. I figured they put her in to get killed so who cares.
Old Leia - slightly annoyed by the I can use the force to escape zero gravity death thing, but other than that, I frankly really liked her. She really was kind of a bad-ass and would have been a great symbol to women if you really felt like you needed one. I mean she was the LEADER of the free world, is this not enough?
Side note - I was overall a meh as to both star wars, but I freaking LOVED Rogue 1. The felicity jones character was your strong independent woman and I got zero political vibe from her story line whatsoever.

That's the thing. Rogue One was fantastically written, and although they forced a female hero on us, it wasn't ridiculous. It was genuinely entertaining, and the sprinkle of SJW sauce didn't hurt the film.
I felt JJ Abrams just went overboard with Last Jedi and totally ruined the movie and possibly the franchise. Next film I will definitely see on NetFlix or Rent, but definitely not dropping evening pass money, or wasting an evening.

There are a couple of good videos that breakdown/analyze the latest Star Wars release. Sargon's is pretty funny and Film Theory does a good job looking at the fan/critic disconnect. I found Jonathan Pageau's to be the best of the lot (trigger warning: Pageau is JBP's sidekick, though some argue he is a force of nature in his own right, on par with Peterson).www.CyB3BxGrUvU

Vice Admiral Gender Studies totally ruined this movie. I honestly had to walk out. it's like they had to invent a strong feminist to put all the high-t males in their place.
Ridiculous. This is stepping over the line.
