Why does it make you angry that this film is competent and entertaining? Just don't see it if you don't want to watch a reboot of a movie you like, the death threats and protests aren't necessary desu

the only people mad are the warcraft faggots no one wants video game adaptions that aren't made for children but secretly are

Because it's not. As stated in other threads. Most reviewers are giving it relatively harsh criticism, however they're giving it high final scores.

Claiming it's worth 80+/100 because, "It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be" or "It's average"

I even read several where the "critic" ripped the movie apart and then gave it a 7+/10

>m-muh men's rights

As a white man, I honestly feel like any white man who complains about discrimintion or that films that are targeted to women are "anti-men" are pathetic. White men have it extremely well in Hollywood and are the most likely to be cast as leads, are generally paid better, etc. This shit is more obnoxious and sad than extreme white tumblr feminism

it makes me angry that Sony made an agenda to push an all female leading cast treating it like a revelation whereas female leading films have existed and done well for decades. And the fact that idiots are jumping on the bandwagon believing the bollocks.

It makes me more angry that they've used Ghostbusters to do this.

>>

because Im an idiot and it bothers me. Let me moan.
>>
>>71899895
the reason that so many are angry with this movie is because the main villain is a literal virgin male who picks on the female ghostbusters and the female ghostbusters defeat him.

I can understand male's being offensive by this especially if you are a virgin.
>>
>>71900455
>whereas female leading films have existed and done well for decades
Not really for large budget films, there are exceptions but the vast majority of the time there's primarily a male lead/leads. Star Wars proved that people will watch and love big budget action scifi films with female/African American leads which is nice, now just more studios need to make films with more diverse casts

Nah
Also Rey's not a Mary Sue no matter how many times you tell yourself that. Being a strong female doesn't = Mary Sue and you have to remember that Kylo Ren is not a sith nor is he strong with the force so her standing against him isn't actually that weird. Luke was strong with the force, he had a brief training scene and went up against Vader (who was a sith and far more powerful than Kylo Ren) the point of the film was to show where Kylo Ren and Rey were both at as their paths diverge and then they'll face each other again in a future film after they've both been trained. IF Kylo Ren had ever even been in a lightsaber duel, he would've been killing Luke's other young students and again, her being strong with the force and getting visions is not even slightly uncommon for the Star Wars universe...people are literally only complaining because she's a female and she's strong with the force like other Star Wars characters. Annakin and Luke were both gifted pilots, so is Rey and she's practiced quite a bit. Annakin and Luke were both strong in the force, so is Rey and she simply managed to survive against someone who is also young and in training
>>
>>71900093
Most reviewers are actually giving it closer to 6/10, if you look at the average score. The percentage you see of all critics is actually positive/negative percentage rather than an actual average. The top critics are about split around 50 percent with the average being 6/10. It's a shitty movie, but it's not hitler.
>>
>>71901123
Kylo ren was also injured by a bowcaster which had been shown in the film as knocking people across a fucking field, in the novelization killing Han didn't make him stronger, it weakened him, and He was tired from chasing after them while injured, and tired from fighting Finn. Rey tapped into the Force, while Kylo Ren was injured, tired, emotionally devastated, and probably pretty fucking scared.
>>
>>71900741
>Go get some pussy and stop whining betas lmao
It's too hard for someone who is scared of females and who feels nervous around any women.

It is too hard to tell them to just go up to girls and try to talk dirty and get laid.

This is why we have basement dwellers (as this movie also makes fun of) who are too afraid to leave their house and make contact with women and who begin to have negativity towards women stating it is all their fault they are like this.

It isn't really funny to make fun of this when lots of virgin males are like this.
>>
>>71901123
Literally every 'mary sue' thing in the film of her is explained by something in the film, with the exception of the mind trick, which is a part of a sequel hook. And hasn't been explained, that's literally the ONLY thing she does that isn't set up by something previously in the movie.

The other remakes didn't virtue-signal to a feminist audience like this one. If this succeeds, it means much more pandering to feminism/progressivism in "geek culture" Hollywood movies, and much less pandering to the straight male nerd demographic. And some folks here don't like that.

There is a movie. A movie you like.

Does that new movie prevent you from watching the old one?

I mean it's not like the success of the new movie will affect you live in any way.

If it succeeds, it means that appropriating geek culture for feminist/social justice reasons works. Which means more movies that pander to that demographic, and fewer movies that pander to our demographic.

Rey isn't a Marey Sue, but she is rushed. A lot of the time I find myself thinking "how'd she know how to do that"

For example, when Rey flies the millennium falcon we're not told how she learned to fly on the same level as competency as trained soldiers. In A New Hope, we've got Luke talking about how he used to bullseye wampas, and Wedge tells us he's a good pilot. We know he trained on Tattoine. However we know Rey doesn't have access to a ship given her wageslave status, so how'd she afford it? In the novel there's actually a line where she says she salvaged a training simulator and played with it. This issue could have been alleviated if we had a line like
>yo Rey where'd you learn to fly so good? How do you know so much about the Falcon?
>I salvaged a training simulator and read up on books people threw out

The issue isn't Rey herself, the issue is that the film is too fucking fast to slow down and explain shit. It's been a while though, I might have missed or forgotten an explanation in the film.

And no, Rey and Kylo were not on the same level. Rey had never even held a saber before. Luke lost against vader who was just testing him. Luke only won after three films worth of build up. I don't mind Rey beating a guy who had been shot in the gut, but I'm wondering how they'll rebuild Kylos credibility as an imposing obstacle for her to over come. Or perhaps they'll add in a new villian.

Innate flying skills fit nicely into powerset typically exhibited by force users.

But she had no business to win against Kylo Ren. It is also anti-climactic because he was the only contender to be her personal nemesis and now he's already defeated instead of having his menace build up.

Kylo Ren is kinda lame by design, so the problem is more that there's nobody between lame mook and the final boss in this chain.

Honestly, I was kinda interested, hoping the trailers were just bad. The way some people reacted was childish. The way sony responded was equally childish and has for many damaged the brand.

I think Sony will regret treating nostalgic fas like crap, because this film could do so much better with stoked older fans, not insulted an alienated ones.

The problem with dealing with the virgin man child phenomenon is that when you try to help them with empathy and kindness they either reject it outright as it feels emasculating or condescending towards them, or they get extremely bitter that empathy and kindness isn't a package deal with sexual satisfaction. On the other hand if you deal with them by teasing, blunt honesty or other means of getting them to toughen up a bit and stop feeling sorry for themselves, they just take it as more evidence that they're the real victims and the world is out to get them

That's bad then. What fun or growth is there in a character who wins because the force let them win and not on their own merits and skills? The force shouldn't just be an instawin button. It goes hand in hand with the characters development of their personality and skills.

Like I said before though, I don't mind Kylo losing since he was bleeding out.

>>71903991
I wouldn't say that having the force by itself makes you a good pilot. Your reaction times increase but you still need to know how to execute manuvers and position yourself.

They erased all existing canon, but still added a bunch of references and included mostly terrible cameos by the previouos cast. It was originally going to be a 3rd movie written and directed by people from the original, but Schony & AMY PASCAL HELLO I AM AMY PASCAL fucked them over in the usual slimy way.

All males in the movie are portrayed as useless, stupid, slovenly beasts in accordance with the directors dysfunctional personality and self-hate.
