Why did JJ make him have an american accent
I see literally no reason why he couldnt just use his natural british accent
>aliens all speak british accent
>let's have this dude also be brit
I'm pretty sure british accent needs to be either villains, wizards or medieval people
Burgers are retarded
African-Americans need someone for self-insertion
>>63911654
Because his stupidity and naiveté of being a brainwashed Stormtrooper wouldn't come across without a stupid American accent.
if you can just learn an accent why arent americans learning to speak like brits so they dont sound like total retards?
Most of the Empire officers have British accents, but the stormtroopers all sound American. Rey having one makes the least sense.
>>63911654
He would've just been Dave Lister in Star Wars
>>63911727
>JJ calling for diversity
>doesn't even want Black Americans, the only majority of blacks that actually give a fuck about diversity
kek
You know what bugged me more? You want a british black man to play a role in a series thats grandiose, and larger that life, and you don't choose Ainsley Harriot? He would've been a fucking superb villain
>>63911712
But Rey keeps her accent.
>>63911882
And that's bad because...?
>>63911879
>Rey having one makes the least sense
got news for you bud, it makes complete sense
>>63911712
Rey confirmed Sheev's daughter
>>63911654
Because you wou'dna understood whut 'e were sayin' elsewise innit, bruv!
>>63911946
And Rey will turn evil.
>>63911654
Made absolutely no sense to me either.
Everyone else in the The First Order has a British accent. Rey has a British accent. Why the fuck did Finn have an accent? Just so Boyega could show he can do an American accent and get more work?
>2015
>not being American
>>63912602
Why'd you jumble up 3 different accents
>>63912602
>that webm
i seriously laughed at this scene. who wants a villain that throws temper tantrums like that? yea vader force choked incompetent officers but he didnt yell NOOOO and break everything like episode 3. ren is way 2edgy4me
>>63911712
Or Romans, if it's a British production.
Because potroasts are retarded.
>>63912704
Anything Pre-Colonial and not Vikings are done in RP
>>63911814
>don't want to sound like a retard
>So learn to speak like a Brit
I'm not following your logic here.
>>63912671
to bait a response from people like you.
you fell right into my trap.
:^)
>>63912674
hes supposed to be a ridiculous edgelord thats the point
>>63912738
name a better accent for native english speakers than brit
Where are all the Canadians? Fuck this racist series, eh.
>>63911925
Hearty kek was had by myself at this.
>>63912786
>than brit
Which one? We have about a hundred.
because he was deliberately cast to draw hoodrats to the movie.
he's jarjar and mace windu rolled into one.
because only the baddies have british accents
>>63912833
i don't know, you tell me
>>63911925
What would his name be?
Darth Drip?
>>63911654
why would there be brits in the future? evolution must have taken care of them.
And if it didn't, it really should have.
>>63913518
>A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away
>A long time ago
>>63911654
Why does anybody fucking care about the new JarJar anyways?
>>63913557
so evolution really backfired huh
>>63911654
Characters with Brit accents come from the Core worlds. I assume Rey did too before getting dropped on Jakku.
>>63912738
Well you are a retarded American so you can't be blamed for not following
>>63911882
can we have a retcon please?
>>63912661
Dude
They've all adopted our culture
Everyone is an America
>>63911654
>>63911882
>>63911925
>all the main characters are Black British
>Finn as generic hero
>Lister as Han Solo sidekick
>Ainsley asSheev
>Lenny Henry asJar Jar
>>63911925
>Ainsley Harriot playing Hux and leading the First Order
Amazing
>>63911654
Theres no britfags in that galaxy which is far far away
>>63912674
That's the point. He's basically a 14 year old edgelord. It's even kind of implied that it's a regular occurrence later on, remember when he's doing it again after Rey escapes and the stormtroopers on patrol stay the fuck out of it?
>>63912674
That is what it is scary to modern audiences.
Not a big strong general. An insecure white boy who throws temper tantrums
He is basically a representation of your average school shooter and online troll.
>Rey lives out in the wastes where they have American accents... she has a British one
>Finn is a storm trooper for the Empire/Order and they all have British accents... he gets an American one
I think the real reason is his natural accent wouldn't appeal to the 'Urban' crowd
JJ Abrams is such a fucking racist
>>63914411
>Lister as Han Solo sidekick
Fuck yeah. Cat should be in there too.Red Dwarf is often overlooked as a reason why it's OK to have black ppl be the main characters in sci-fi. And DS9.Oh fuck, it'll never happen but imagine if JJ directed a DS9 movie and Boyega played Sisko. That'd be cool.
>>63915585
The real reason is Ridley can't do an American accent so they needed Boyega to counter balance her.
>>63911654
>Why did JJ make him have an american accent
are you really that obtuse?
Finn = 'positive' role model for AFRO-AMERICANS, not Brits... after all, it's not Britain that is steal dealing with the legacy of slavery
>>63915585
>his natural accent wouldn't appeal to the 'Urban' crowd
Kek, you must be American. All black people here don't sound like Idris.
>>63915326
This. Kylo Ren is literally Elliot Rodger with a lightsaber.

This.
>>63911925
imagine ainsley as an eccentric cantina owner or merchant
would be fucking amazing
>>63916318
SUUUUUUUPREME POWERFOR A SUPREME GENTLEMAN
>"we're appealing to the african audience"
>jj imports a british black man and casts him
Why haven't the SJWs caught on to this bait and switch? Do they seriously think british blacks have anything in common with american niggers?
>>63911654
I thought he'd have a British accent because he was Corascanti or something.
>>63911654
Because amerifats are retarded mouthbreathing racist morons who already couldn't handle a black person on screen. A nigger with a British accent would've made their heads explode.
>>63911654
In SW English accents are for upper class types. Obi Wan, Leia and Tarkin for example.
>>63914411
>Ainsley asSheev
>>63912602
>FUCKING JEDIS DIE REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>63911946
Yeah she's a wizard
>>63911654
because it would just be
>BACKUP DACER
>>63911814
>if you can just learn an accent why arent americans learning to speak like brits so they dont sound like total retards?
Because they don't want to stop sounding like a retard, only to start sounding like a faggot
>>63917105
You do know british blacks are almost as nig as you can get right?
They're pretty much 1st-2nd generation Africans.
it will confuse white american audience because british accent = villain
>>63911654
Know how everyone gives JJ shit for pandering by having a rainbow cast? He's doing it again. How many black Americans can sympathize with a black Brit?
Make him the "American" of the group, have a classy Brit and a Latino and you've got the modern Neapolitan of diversity.
>>63918073
I thought lots of them were from the Caribbean.

Not the majority, most go to like Florida, the states or Canada for some reason.
Boyegas parents are both from Africa.
