I never understood the hate for her other than “woman” who was not an "ideal thin body type” and “not white.”

Otherwise, she was fine. :shrugs:

All day long movies have characters who don't make huge impacts on the story. It's obvious why she got singled out with hate.
I was confused what her role was - thought she was a major character, and then...just disappears?

She’s all over TLJ. Her arc was meant to help Fin complete his character arc in the movie.

She disappears in ROS because Disney decided to sideline her after all the hateful online backlash she got.

I've repeated this till I'm more blue in the face than Thrawn. The return of Skywalker was a huge corporate overreaction to angry nerds online.

You've said this before.
Many, including myself, think her character was dumb, as was her dialogue and delivery.
So that is the reason. You don't have to agree.
Maybe she'll do a Shakespeare piece with Sir Kenneth Branagh down the road and knock my socks off.
Until then...

What? You don’t think she was a main character in TLJ and her arc was to help Fin complete his?

TLJ broke a lot of brains. You can hate her character but these are facts in the narrative. 🤷

lol. Nerd!!!

Other news, supposedly next James Bond has been offered to Aaron. As long as he doesn’t walk around in a tux with that stupid beard, I can live with it.

MCU 'star' is a bit much. Quicksilver was in the movies for like 20 minutes and then died

I like it...
He's been in stuff I've liked him in, but he's not oversaturated.
Idris Elba was for a long time, in everything that was made, and he's too old now.
Henry Cavill would have been great, but he's in so much stuff as well.
Harding doesn't have the look to me.

Not to mention Cavill looks like sh1t in a suit

I liked him in Kickass but he’s not really that great of an actor. Seems like a mistake if this casting is true.
