This guy is another fucking Jar Jar. At least Lando was a successful businessman who was good at what he did, Windu even took Sheev down for a minute. But Finn is mostly a negro minstrel who's there to make white people laugh and feel like they're watching a diverse film.

I can see how some people like him, and I think Boyega does the role well, but I think most of the black folk who went in to watch this movie came away annoyed at these same things. I don't think it would have been so apparent if Rey wasn't so flawless by comparison. Character development opportunities were missed on both ends here desu because JJ is so obsessed with keeping a pace so fast that his fans don't have to think about his movies.

this is why inserting politics into art that isn't already political is always a mistake. it's asking for everything about the movie to be viewed through that lens. JJ publicly stating his reason for the recast was a huge mistake, it even insults Boyega's abilities.

Morgan Freeman has literally said people should stop talking about race in the entertainment industry and he's got a point. it's not like this is 40 Years and Slave ffs.

did you cringe when he said "droid please". it's weird for me because I'm britbong and black people here don't talk like that. it's not even successful pandering.

That joke was targeted at white people just like everything else in this movie. My gf and I both looked at each other and rolled our eyes.

I mean, it's not offensive but jesus is it stupid.
