Well, here's the thing. The older sw just kinda did it's own thing, so therefore no issues with that. However in the modern era: They want to put minorities in every sw movie only as a non main character. Why? They're saying it's not a good idea to put them in the main role. Why ? I am just saying that seems to be the pattern. So they want diversity but not as a main character.
Thing is, every new non main role character is a minority. Ok, but: Be consistent and make a main character a minority too.
Why did they only have to be non main characters. Oh, because it's actually not diverse. When you think about it.
They're not consistent.
Kinda like the lead always has to be female, OK, then why is the villian always a guy. Same thing. Same pattern there.

Ok but make these non-white characters likeable, and get likeable actors to play them. Finn is a dipshit and Boyega a dickhead. Same with Rose.
And it’s not like anyone liked Rey or Kylo.
I just want the freedom to dislike non-white characters if they suck just as I dislike white characters who suck.

I always assumed the casting of American movies was a reflection of the demographics of America. Now Identitarians are telling us it's because of institutional racism.

Why wouldn't they be white? There's not even that many white leads to begin with.
Obi Wan or Anakin Skywalker from the prequels had to be white. Han Solo from Solo had to be white. Rey in hindsight of being the Emperor's grand daughter had to be white.
The only one who didn't have to be was Jyn Erso.

If you had a brain, you would have understood that i was not serious. It’s a little difficult to tell when someone’s messing around on the Internet, but considering your usual posting history, I find it difficult to believe that you weren’t being serious. By the way, how’s defending Rose McGowan working out for ya? |

Tell that to Billy Dee Williams, Samuel L. Jackson, and John Boyega.

The only one of those that was a main character was John Boyega. The others had major roles. |
