If you exclude Leia, total female speaking time in the ENTIRE TRILOGY is ONLY 63 SECONDS.

Aren't you ashamed of yourselves? I am glad that J. J. Abrams has fixed this in the new movie with a multiracial cast and a strong female lead. :^)

>If you exclude Leia
Why would you exclude a major character?

Out of curiosity how many seconds of dialogue did she have?
>>
what if the ewoks are female?
>>
If you exclude windu, lando and amidala, blacks have exactly 0 seconds of speaking time

RACISM!

Leia is literally the main character in Star Wars.

She's in the opening goddamn scene and she fights the Empire every step of the way after that. Luke goes off to hang out with a gremlin in the second movie and doesn't even do anything of any consequence in Jedi after the first act. Han is constantly trying to get paid or get out of even being there in the first place. The droids just do as they're told. Chewie just does has he's told. Lando is a backstabbing asshole. Leia is the only character 100% committed to bringing down the Empire for all three moves and that is the main plot of the series.

If you "exclude" her you're literally ignoring the actual protagonist of the original trilogy.
>>
>>63274684

I am in favor of a silent Star Wars movies. Mute people are shamelessly underrepressented in movies.

I also am in favor of Star Wars movie without images or sounds. Those are microaggressions against deaf and blind people. People will just have to sit in the theater for 2 and a half hours and check their privilege. They should also remember people that have no ass, and can't enjoy sitting privilege. They should also remember the people born without a brain, and check their consciousness privilege.

Do feminists really sit around, spending HOURS counting how much minor female characters speak in movies? How can people not smell the desperation? They know that women in the west are so pampered that they have to turn to fucking fictional characters to justify feminism's existence.

And what is the total time of speaking for male characters who aren't a main character?

Will there be a campaign of equal irrelevance for extras?

>Leia is literally the main character in Star Wars.

There's a very strong case to be made for that. It's just a shame Lucas himself didn't entirely realize it.

>Do feminists really sit around, spending HOURS counting how much minor female characters speak in movies?

It's a good way to get an idea of what roles writers assign to women when they're not consciously thinking of writing them. Do they default to men when they're not writing people's wives or sisters? Do they consider women leaders in roles besides that of figureheads? It's not the biggest of big deals, but sometimes it's being conscious of the small things can make a big impact. I mean, think of it this way: The Empire was historically viewed as racist and sexist. That itself has changed a bit lately, but how different do the Rebels come off in terms of appearance or "voice"? Not much, at least before RotJ - they have one woman and one alien.

> They know that women in the west are so pampered that they have to turn to fucking fictional characters to justify feminism's existence.

A gilded, velvet-padded cage is still a cage. (Wealthy) Women in Saudi Arabia are, doubtless, quite pampered by their husbands and spend small fortunes at shopping malls built just for them - but they can't even go outside without permission and are forbidden from driving, among a host of other restrictions. In the West, a lot of sexism isn't about consciously keeping women down, it's about casual disregard or lack of consideration, like how men's shaving supplies might be tax exempt but feminine hygiene products (which are considerably more important to health & well being) subject to tax.

You people are stupid. Really, really stupid. It's almost frightening that the intelligence levels displayed on /tv/ are so low, but at least people (read: normal people) can take heart in the fact that you're all contained to this board. You all seem to be either exceptionally ignorant adults or disturbingly underdeveloped children. Probably both, I expect.
