>Mads Mikkelsen (Galen appears to be his name in the film) is kind of the key to the film in a way. He is a scientist that took over the Geonosian Death Star project. He solved several of the flaws the Empire could not and is sort of a revered person in the Empire for his contributions. However, Mikkelsen’s character is a Robert Oppenheimer-type character. Oppenheimer helped design the atomic bomb only to say, “Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.” The guilt “Galen” feels for his contributions to the Empire become too much and he defects, attempting to make things right. In order to do this, he enlists the help of his only daughter….

>>64556167
Why do you care about it so much?
The only annoying thing in TFA for me was Rey telling Finn to let go of her hand the second time, I was fine with it the first time but the second time was a bit forced and made me roll my eyes.
I don't remember any SJW pandering in the rest of the film though unless simply having a female main character is now SJW pandering.
>>64556320
This doesn't fit into the Star Wars universe at all. Take a look around the room at the Rebel Alliance in ANH.
I wouldn't give half a shit if they were doing this in a new IP but it's clear that they're shoehorning their agenda into a franchise they already know has significant pull and fanbase.
>>64555422
FUCK DAMN IT
I wanted Mads to be the fucking villain.
Site a source motherfuck.
>>64555422
this actually shares a lot of similarities to the Star Wars d6 adventure "starfall" except the daughter worked for the empire, it involved star destroyers instead of death star, and the PCs are trying to help him defect.
awesome adventure.
>>64556364
>a 70's movie was sexist
STOP THE PRESSES
god when will this meme end? Women are not suited for action adventure lead roles.
They belong in horror/survival flicks where their feminine traits actually come into play
>ie any horror movie ever, Alien, Terminator etc
Just feels wrong. Same with in TFA.
>>64556356
They are perverting Star Wars with their bias. Rey was perfect in every way and basically Kathleen Kennedy's fanfic addition. I have no doubt they're going to go on to push her as "le GOATiest Jedi of all time". Nevermind that it's cheap and non-engaging, it's about having some kind of generic power fantasy broadcast to the world.
As far as Rogue Squadron, it was basically all-male in ANH and that's par for reality. These are still human beings even if they live amongst alien species. Why shoehorn another female power fantasy into a leadership role in a "gritty" SW movie featuring them? Kills realism and is non-cohesive.
>>64556447
>Women are not suited for action adventure lead roles.
Only because you're not used to it.
Kids growing up now will be used to it.
>>64555422
How much are you willing to bet that they will do some extremely lore-unfriendly retcon like the Death Star blowing some planet up even though it's clearly stated that Alderaan was the first planet it destroyed?
Or even worse, it's revealed that this Death Star is ANOTHER one and not the one we see in IV.

Who cares if Rey is perfect in every way? She wasn't, but even if she was she came out as the least interesting character in the film anyway so why are you bothered that she was "perfect"
I don't even know where to begin with your second point, it was basically all male and why shoe horn a female into a leadership role?
What is Leia? What is Mon Mothma? These were both women in a leadership role in a militia.
And kills realism? really? are you going too shout at the screen in anger every time a woman kills someone on a fantasy planet with a weapon that doesn't obey the laws of physics because a woman couldn't kill a man in real life or something?
Also the rebel alliance is massively underpowered small force compared to the empire, do you really think in reality they'd say "well, we do need more soldiers to help in our cause but you're a woman, so you'll actually be no help whatsoever", they'd be trying to recruit as many people as they can get, children are weaker than adults and yet child soldiers are still a thing.

Imperial scientist implies human because the Empire was speciest.
Coruscant and the "core worlds" like Alsakan and Kuat were mostly human; and they had this thing called "Human High Culture."
In Star Wars Episode II, there's a quick scene where the Goenosian king gives Count Dooku the Death Star plans. It was planned by them, but Mads improved it and made it work.

You're just talking about feminazis. There are many women who want real equality even if it includes negative aspects too. Because believe it or not, most women would also hold the door open for you because that's how you are supposed to treat other people in our society, regardless of gender.

But you are giving no reason for your dismay except that the lead roles are occupied by women.
Why is that bad? Make up your goddamn mind whether or not TFA was a rehash of ANH.
I do think that unless she had her memory wiped, Rey was a Mary Sue. Being female, this made me angry. It just gave you viriginal autists more fuel to flame the role of the female lead.
Most media I enjoy has male leads. It doesn't bother me. Why should I read things that have protagonists just like me? I want to walk in other people's shoes, experience a life different than my own.
There have been 6 movies in the franchise without female leads [again, excluding the one character of Leia]. Why can't there be one that at least changes the formula a bit?

Look at it in context:
>SJWs gaining a growing media presence and influence
>start demanding roles be given to the "underrepresented", some movies start reflecting this
>JJ Abrams and Disney acquire Star Wars, express a commitment to "diversity" and other shit in casting
>Kathleen Kennedy demands a strong female role
>we get Miss Sue in TFA, she will probably be the central lead of the next trilogy
>now Rogue One with a stronk wommin leading the unit
It's just overbearing and clearly correlative. It is under a takeover lol, they've made that clear. I wasn't even aware of these kinds of politics until it became a huge thing with Gawker media going under and then other large journalist outlets falling prey to the same shit but now I'm hyper aware of it and it bothers me.
Remember that the new age of identity politics weren't started by fedoras or neckbeards, this is the doing of people who wanted gender and race to become the fundamental aspect of your identity and existence. It's annoying. The bland stories don't help, I'm about done with Star Wars.
>>64555923
8 Movies so far, 2 female protagonists
>>64557825
>Your precious series isn't under some malicious takeover with an agenda.
http://screenrant.com/star-wars-kathleen-kennedy-female-influence/
>“[Disney is] really, really making a huge effort across the company to put more focus around casting women and putting women in positions of responsibility, with directing and various other positions inside, different lines of business in the company. It’s not just about casting female protagonists. It’s gotta be across the board throughout the industry.”
>>64557953
What is this perceived attack by SJWs?
Game of the year this year was Witcher 3 despite SJWs slamming the game.
Real artists and media creators don't pay attention to them. Most of the general public doesn't either. Most of my friends who were girls loved Gone Girl, even though that woman was vicious and taking advantage of the system that pities women.
I don't feel like this was SJW shoehorning either. Neither was the Boyega casting. They weren't trope emulations, they were okay-written characters.
It was one woman main character. Stop seeing conspiracies that aren't there.
>>64557953
So the issue you have is there seems to be forced diversity in star wars? A series that had diversity in it to begin with.
Seriously man all the sjw shit doesn't matter at all and really only exists on the internet. If you just stop giving a shit about it you'll have a much better life.
>>64558037
Why does this matter? They want more women involved in their company which is completely fine.
>making an entire line based on one line in the crawl
are they going to do this for all the films now?
>>64558088
Film is absolutely getting commandeered by them. As I mentioned prior, Kennedy lobbied hard for the Rey character. Part of the reason why she was so overly capable and they included some unnecessary shit. It's harmful to creative expression to inflect bias, and when it's affecting one of my favorite series I take is somewhat personally. I really wouldn't care if it was anything other than Star Wars.
>>64558088
this
And I think, one of the main reasons for Rey being a girl, is that otherwise the character would be too similar to Luke (/anakin)
>>64558037
Strong women always existed in Star Wars EU. Why can't we put it on the big screen?
Excluding Mulan and Brave's main character, Disney typecasts female characters into special women that don't need no man, but actually they do. a false strong protagonist.
Women make up over 51% of the world's population, yet until recently I'd say 7/10 main characters in anything are men. Since women make up a certain portion of the population, that portion wants to be entertained. If media is going to filter to the man, when women could be half of their fanbase, they are limiting themselves.
Are you telling me you never want to experience a character that is vastly different than you? See how they see their world?
>>64558182

>>64558340
Most we'll get is probably a Vader cameo, none of the rebels are going to be Jedi I think I heard.
>>64558221
It isn't commandeered by them. It was one goddamned character in a franchise that already has 6 films with males as the main character.
She was overly capable, but so was Anakin. I read the novelization which makes it plainly obvious through Kylo's interactions with her that she has a past she is unaware of. A la Revan.
There is no creative bias. You are seeing shit that isn't there.
Why shouldn't Kennedy want to get more women working on Star Wars?
I am female and a huge Star Wars fan. Obsessed over the EU novels, my favorite games are KOTOR. Am I less deserving than you as a fan to have a protagonist of my gender?
I was able to fall in love with Star Wars without a female lead, but since the universe within Star Wars is so diverse, it doesn't make sense to just follow male stories. Hell, to me it doesn't make sense to make the main characters solely human in this universe either.

>>64558312
I'm not pretending manchild paranoia is any worse than SJW paranoia when it comes to movies. The protagonist being a white dude would've been no less of a conspiracy than it being a woman or a black guy or whatever. Anyone looking for some deeper meaning in the race or gender of a Star Wars character in an unreleased movie is a fucking idiot regardless of which side they're on.

So what, you are the biggest fan ever and a Wookieepedia article editor and that means one woman main character completely ruins your enjoyment of the series?
There are plenty of women that are "hardcore" Star Wars fans themselves and never make a peep about how men make up 90% or more of most stories in Star Wars.

Yes, women can like things like Witcher and KOTOR as well. I don't need to self insert myself in my media.
Canonically [pre Disney], The Exile was Meetra Surik, a woman. At least there is that.
Also Kreia was a fucking awesome woman character.
The only friend I can talk EU with is also a girl.
Most of my guy friends who say they are Star Wars fans scratch their heads when I mention Revan or Thrawn.

I actually am pretty good friends with a close friend of the guy who wrote the movie, and I have met the guy who wrote it.
He is actually based and I was surprised and pleased to hear he was doing it.
He pretty much was intrigued by the line about the Bothans (he's not an autist so he doesn't know about any EU/Wookiepedia bullshit about the Bothans) and decided to just expand that into a story.
It should be interesting.

Neither is the persecution you seem to think prevades culture from SJWs. Depraved individuals are the ones crying for safe-spaces on campuses and think cultural appropriation is real. They aren't major, they aren't a majority.
Most of the time they don't even get their way, even if they yell louder.

Maybe Felicity Jones' character will actually end up being well written female character that girls can look up too. I'm cool with that. Rey was a trash shoehorned in character. I don't get the feeling that this will be the case in Rouge One. I hope I'm not wrong.

Well, they're already achieving censorship and kangaroo justice in colleges.

No you dipshit, they want to do away with extreme amounts of standardized testing that are done within schools since Common Core [you have like 3 standardized tests a year that are the only things that matter. Teachers no longer teach, they teach the test]. They would still keep SAT and ACT.
They probably aren't going to have SAT scores be the thing that matters most for college entrance because it is stupid. You can learn the test and get a 33 on your ACT and still flunk out of college. They want someone who has good grades, took advanced courses, did extra-curricular volunteer work, and did well on a standardized test. If you took only the latter, you'll get a bunch of people who only learned the test. That can only get you to about sophomore level in university.

I may have missed a detail from the movie, but does the base have some kind of propulsion system to move the planet around? If their plan had worked out, it would have sucked up the sun, blown up not-Yavin-IV, and...then what? Is it capable of moving to other systems?
>>64559645
They want colleges to stop taking ACT/SAT as entrance measures. There is a correlation between ACT/SAT and academic/career success, it isn't a hard predictor but it's just another aspect of a resume that can help glean insight into a student's potential and also standardize across districts (as GPA measurements vary and can be subject to issues like rigor/difficulty disparities)
You can't "learn" the ACT/SAT, it's basically how fast you can comprehend material and return analysis. It's an IQ test lite but not fully so as it does require general knowledge.
Removing them from requirements only makes the process more subjective and hazy. What's going to take its place, a fucking essay?
>>64559647
My friends had an off campus party with a joking banner out front that had "daughter daycare" on it the first day of move in, obviously intended as humor
they got a barrage of facebook hate calling for their dicks to be cut off, their house vandalized and "fuck rape culture" spray painted all over the side, and two of them lost their jobs after these assholes spammed their work every day
This from the "oppressed" campus feminists
they also introduced mandatory "how to not be a rapist" material for incoming freshmen

>>64560073
Of course that happened. I would totally believe this without any proof.
>>64559888
What I meant by that was that the vast majority of SW fans (and nerdy stuff in general) were usually male until recently. Since the media pushed nerd culture as one of the new norms, a lot of new 'fans' joined in, including a lot of girls who used to gladly make fun of it before.
Basically the same shit that is happening with video games. That doesn't mean all gamers and all SW fans have always been exclusively male.
>>64560005
>You can't learn the ACT
Then how come in 6 months my score jumped up 9 points after taking a special course that had textbooks how to take the ACT?

Why is the Resistance separate from the Republic?
Is the New Order a recognized state? Is it conquering things or living in isolation like North Korea?
Why does the Republic allow it to exist?
Did the Republic only have one fleet?
Was that Coruscant that was destroyed?
Why did the Resistance only have snubfighters?
Who is Supreme Leader Snoke?
Are all those planets in the same system? How could they see that other planet get destroyed otherwise?
Why didn't the Resistance or Republic stop the New Order from building that Starkiller weapon? It's an entire planet, it's not like it can be hidden.
Whhhhhhhy?

>What I meant by that was that the vast majority of SW fans (and nerdy stuff in general) were usually male until recently.
From what you know. Female social life is absolute hell. Until recently a woman couldn't feel comfortable in either men or women social circles when talking about "geeky" hobbies. Men would either assume she doesn't know her shit or beta orbit her. Other women outright laugh at her and shame her.
So yeah, there might not have been "as many" to your eyes because they simply hid their powerlevel.
