And who or what has the power of banning Disney from doing anything? Pretty sure nobody posting here thought there was gonna be legislation drafted and passed anytime soon.

If a man was in the role of Rey and was written the same way I would make the same criticisms. I think your understanding of the capacity for characterization within film is shallow and pedestrian. No. You were complaining that they lazily wrote her character BECAUSE she is a woman. I wasn't defending the writing I was saying that I don't think the poor writing of the character has anything to do with her being a female. The whole movie is poorly written.
If you think that my capacity is shallow and pedestrian that's fine with me. I disagree but it's fine. Then you misread my post(s) and we're arguing the same points.

Do you think that Disney should be banned from making any future Star Wars content? Judging from how horrible last two movies were, I'd say yes. It's clear Disney doesn't understand anything about what made Star Wars great and considers it just an afterthought to all that billions of cash they are making now. Here is a novel concept; don't watch anymore. I stopped watching Pirates of the Caribbean after #2. I stopped watching Indiana Jones after #3, Terminater after #3, ... see where I'm going with this? If the general public gets tired of it, they will stop going. If as many people feel about Star Wars as you do, I'm sure The Last Jedi won't even make the top 10. It will be a vindication of how you feel others should view Disney Star Wars.

How about this.
When I went to see the first new one in this series, I heard people saying negative or slightly negative things. We all sounded like party poopers. So I asked these same people at the theatre what they'd rate it. We all said about a 7/10. I said, "that's good! Right??" They reluctantly responded, "well, yeahh" then why are we acting like spoiled brats? Right?
So it was a kind of reboot to make everyone new and old happy. It was what Obamacare was to healthcare, this reboot was of Star wars. A compromise.
So I read posts on imdb, youtube, and you know what I found? Grumpy sounding people who take the movie so seriously and critically, are the minority. While others say they had fun, it was good, and aren't going around crapping on peoples day. So then I realized, yes it's just a movie. I began to enjoy it for just that. Instead of staying focused on finding bad parts just to be a prick. Plus girls don't like grumpy jerks. That is the best way to get a girl to never want a second date.
Does that make sense to anyone? So now on I just enjoy the movie unless it is a total unavoidable stinker.

Btw I'm not the fat bastard, that's a sort of wanted poster for bounty hunters like me, who need a visual of what a troll poster may look like. Example, that fat bastard character by name, could be you 😲 or it could be trash, or heeeyyy, or a Digby poster, or a Ben sock puppet! 🤡 Btw btw - I'm a music dewd too! YaRrrrrr! There'be a number'ah musically minded posters 'here - aye!

You guys are full of crap. TFA and Rogue One were way better than the prequels and not bad movies. They also made a buttload of cash at the box office.

But making a buttload of cash at the box office is no excuse for being such terrible movies that are a disgrace to the Star Wars name.

I'm no prequel-basher and even I think Disney understands Star Wars better than George Lucas did.

The difference was Disney did not have compromise this much to make it work for them.
