The original star wars was amazing...:why: why is there so much hate for this series???

It's mostly generational.

Black people younger than say....35 missed that era when scifi and horror were goat. They grew up on BeBe Kids, Boyz in da hood, Poetic Justice, etc.

Also raised in single mother homes without a father or uncle who grew up watching kung fu flicks and horror movies.

:stopitslime: so before you fly in here lying saying you had a father or some type of male bond...what type movies did they watch if they don't like scifi?

@Ziggiy @Box Cutta damn i forgot the new star wars was coming out (dropped that shyt after TFA):laff: posters still watching this trash after what they did to finn and all the bullshyt decide to read the threads and they still treating finn like :trash:

I read the most recent thread, and he is even more of a joke in the newest iteration of the films. I thought he was supposed to be force sensitive and a jedi? :mjlol:

Nikkas saying "wait until the next film" :mjlol:


These guys can also miss me with the "hobby" talk. Sitting on your ass watching some White people swing magic batons in space ain't a hobby.

How about you get into the gym and lift some weight instead of watching a movie where nikkas get disrespected on some Stepin Fetchit bullshyt? :hhh:

I hate that sentiment because it hints at sci-fi/fantasy only being for white people, specifically white males.

Enough white people already believe that, we don't need any fellow black people thinking we don't have a place watching or participating in those genres. That's why Ava directing this sci fi/fantasy flick "A Wrinkle In Time" is such a big deal in the first place.

You tell me what's worse: a kungfu movie where Blacks aren't disrespected or a movie that has a Black male lead drinking with the animals like a dog and getting his ass beat by a 100lb White girl?

Think that because mainly most if not all sci fi/fantasy flick and books just have white people in it and sci if/fantasy is already a niche genres in it even among white people.

We need to change that perception... when scifi/fantasy flicks with black leads come out we need to support them heavy... no more bullshytin..:ufdup:

If you don't like star wars.
How did you ever like or get into watching movies?
