Oh, I wasn't trying to say that Disney have shown they are some standard bearer who have gone above and beyond, sry...I guess my sentiment was that they shouldn't budge/go back. Give them an inch and they'll take a mile.

These people need help.
Like meds, psychological evaluations, a good beating if nothing else works.
This is absolutely disgusting. This makes me incredibly sad.
but Midichlorians are a gene thing as well, aren't they? Otherwise why were Luke and Leia the last hope of the galaxy?
This is likely fake. I was part of a flat earth group a while ago and learned that most of the members there are only members to poke fun of the "real" members. This is too on the nose.
Hint: There aren't many real members
This post is feels like the epitome of why insulting the character is a frequent tactic to annoy the actor.
On its face, all this person is doing is claiming a character sucks, but they're clearing doing so in a way to try and make Boyega somehow feel worse for playing him.

"We hate the character so what better to do than lash out against the Actor who portrayed that person! It's not the same as insulting the actual person!"
Sound logic.

Reminder that Star Wars fans weaponized their petty hatred to drive a 10-year-old boy crazy in 1999
Nice to see that streak of worthlessness continues

Yes they can be inherited, or you can just happen to have them
Like Magic in Harry Potter
Luke wasn't the only one who could turn Vader because he had magic genes - his power level amounted to nothing. He was the only one who could turn Vader because he was the only one who was willing to give up everything and trust in his father's love.
Leia couldn't do that because she hated the man and viewed Bail as her real father.
Ahsoka couldn't do that because she viewed Anakin and Vader as separate people. Same with Obi-Wan, same with Yoda.
Midichlorians are real in-universe but they have never actually mattered. Anakin was the Chosen One because he destroyed the Sith by picking up an old man and throwing him down a pit to save his son, not because he could go Jedi SSJ. Luke was the New Hope because he believed in love, not because of his Force aptitude.
The Will of the Force works in mysterious ways.

OR here's an idea. Leave the kids movies for the kids to enjoy and everyone stop crapping all over them while simultaneously claiming them as prized possessions?
The younger gen are going to be a bunch of cynical fucks because we condition them with our own bad behavior with every single piece of media designed for them.
Very few are going to agree with you about part 1. The non-crazies for the most part like the films we get now more than any SW media since the OT.
Oh god, what you made me do Manabyte. I opened the thread you posted then wandered in the twitter of the person John was responding to, only to see that he retweeted Ethan van Sciver talking about ''sjws being ruffled'' by how much money he made with his crowdfunded comic about a cyborg frog...
What a fucking rabbit hole.
Have you seen the stuff kids watch on youtube? They will be cynical because it's most of what they consume of their own volition. It's the meme generation. Stuff being torn down is a primary source of amusement. My kids like to watch things to make fun of it.
It's not even the actors fault, she is just acting how the writers and directors command her. What the fuck.
Official Star Wars Twitter account is trolling the sexists/racists who irrationally hate Rose. Love it.
Nah. There's levels to this. You can criticize a movie. But there is literally a documentary dedicated to this notion that TPM ruined people's childhook. "George Lucas raped my childhood" That shit was given life. Hell South Park made an entire episode about it. So while it was a meme. It was clearly the absolute truth to people.
That would be fine if people just moved on. But you had people harassing Lucas, cast and crew. I saw someone above mention "Victim complex". No one is saying you can't criticize a movie, but when you move past that and start attacking actors, and crew you've crossed a line.
Now it's funny. Those same people want Lucas back even when a lot of the ideas Lucas Film are using is actually from George himself.
I was referring to The People Vs. George Lucas as that documentary. Is there another documentary out there similar to it that you're referring to by any chance?
The only documentary I know of is the People Vs. George Lucas, and on its surface, I always took it to be nothing more than a playful jaunt into the fans' disappointment with the prequels. I just have a hard time processing the idea that there are people out there who took the song "George Lucas Raped My Childhood" to heart and turned it into a clarion call of sorts. It's such a lack of priorities in life. Do you think these people carry on about it at dinner time with their families or at work? Imagine obsessing about this on a date. It used to be a funny punch line you'd see on the Simpsons, with that comic book store owner. But today, it almost sets off some red flags.
