...you find out they hired a woman to direct the Kenobi series. Oh, boy, Geeks + Gamers's head probably exploded.

On the one hand I am all for diversity and inclusion. On the other hand what do I care if the person ends up directing something that sucks?
So I'm on the fence. Did they hire her because she was genuinely their best choice and she pitched a great take on the project? OR just because she was a woman? The one would be awesome, the other would be not enough.

Because I enjoy the thought of Star Wars "fans" getting their panties in a twist (yet again). Hell, when it was announced that a black woman was being hired as 1st A.D. for tRoS I saw I'm-not-racist-or-sexists out there screaming about "SJW Wars!!!" Now an Asian woman is going to direct am entire season of the Kenobi show? Damn, some people probably had a stroke when they read that. Noted moron Grace Randolph has probably already whined about it.

7 years and they still haven't let a woman filmmaker helm a Star Wars feature film for the box office. Instead they only give a project to a woman for some streaming service that is still viewed to many in show business as being the "straight to DVD equivalent". So much for Disney's supposed diversity and gender equality.  In reality, they're only about all that when it doesn't hit their bottom line haha. |
