Thanks for sharing this. I really fear I was misunderstood earlier with the petty back and forth. It breaks my heart to see what should be non-controversial elements of these films like the race and gender of characters weaponized by the MAGA right to fit their agenda.
Some of my objections to this new film are shared with the author of this piece, as I fear it seemingly bows to this crap which based on the article wasn't even held by many real fans. #RoseTicoDeservedBetter is currently trending on Twitter, and that remains my number one complaint with the treatment of the characters in this film. Again I can't knock anyone for enjoying this and I do overall, but I do feel annoyed by how so much of the plot seems to play into the hands of angry rightwing "critics." I know a lot of folks just feel it's Star Wars and should just be enjoyed and maybe I should just try to do that, but I think it really sends a bad message for a lot of folks out there who felt seen / heard by the prior film. Just my POV, which doesn't seem to go over too well so with this I'll shut up about this movie.
