You're offended that one of the good guys was a woman? Why?

They aren't portraying the Empire as the Boomer generation. Good grief, dude. Go back and look at the original Star Wars films. Every single person on an Imperial ship was an old white British dude.

It sounds like you are trying to be offended.

Andor - white
Erso - white

Vader - black AF

You're a reerun

And who cares what color they are? It's an entertaining story

The Master and that horrible movie with Michael Douglas, Rain something.

The worst movie I've ever seen in a theater was "Shark Boy and Lava Girl in 3D", when my kids were young. Intolerable.

They absolutely are the generation better than you and you your ilk

You're a pale imitation of a man, your Grampa would hide his head in shame at what you've become

I bet they played that mother ****er on a loop for what felt like a week straight.

Mine did until I blocked it.

Black Rain? 80's flick, IIRC?

I took it as an attack on old white guys which was all the crazy back then.

I didn't tell anyone to not go see it. I did not attempt to cancel it. I didn't like the message and thus couldn't enjoy the movie so I left.

I apologize if me leaving upset some of you.

It's all good (with me anyway, lol).

I'll leave you with this regarding Rogue One - it absolutely puts the "war" in Star Wars, maybe better than any other film in the series. I'll give you a little taste for of what you're in for in you decide to give it another go....

Maybe it's a good thing if it shows that white men are ruling humanity for thousands or millions of years.

Walked out of one and left another.

My phone kept going off during Deadpool, so I finally checked it and my mom was calling because my sister nearly died. Left that one to handle family things.

The only one I walked out on was a piece of shit movie called Perils of PK. Back in the day (every once in awhile) we'd go to the theater and figure out what we wanted to see. We got to Bannister Square late and most of the films were in progress, we chose this movie because it hadn't started and we were teenage boys and the poster featured a woman with big boobs.

When we ordered the tickets, the sales guy tried to talk us out of it. Now, we were B-movie connoisseurs, so we figured "how bad can it be?", plus big boobs.

There was a group of 5 or 6 of us that went together plus another handful of people there, so maybe a dozen there to see a movie on a Friday night.

Not sure how long we lasted, but it couldn't have been more than 45 minutes. We weren't even the first to leave and we never saw any naked boobs in the movie. What a wasted night. Perils of PK did become a punchline for our group for years though.

Yeah, I'm sure the action was cool. But it's like trying to watch another football game after the Chiefs lose... you are still pissed and it just isn't the same as after a W.
