Gosh, I had almost forgotten about you :/ What does writing something polarizing have to do with manhood or knowing the difference between someone with experience and one without? Self-awareness may be his fault. Yours? Boundless arrogance, for a boy your age.

Ok. I saw ANH before your parents met. GL says lots of things. The movies have changed significantly over time, for the sake of the money. That quote is not from 1977. ANH was not made for kids. Kids enjoyed it though, I was one. However, the adults outnumbered us kiddoes at the theater 10-1 at minimum.

Dude, I don't know what it is that you are talking about. The reason I liked The Last Jedi is that I liked the characters, and for the most part it was an interesting and entertaining movie. I did not think Luke, Leia, or Han were destroyed in any way by these films. Sure, their lives didn't turn out as I'd hoped, but I found each of them to have grown in interesting and unpredictable ways. I liked the subverted expectations where several scenes were set up to be similar to the original trilogy, but worked out differently, sometimes with hilarious results. There are some issues with the plot, but for the most part the story worked - and "no" I don't need another video tediously explaining what is wrong with Luke's development, or Canto Bight, or the tone of the characters in the Millennium Falcon at the end. I REALLY don't know what Feminism has to do with the criticisms since, if you corrected the plot issues, you would still be left with a story with a bunch of strong female characters who mostly dominate the film. The fact that people keep bringing this up, makes me think they have issues with the Feminist movement in general (*shrug* which is fine by the way), and they're just projecting. It actually amazes me that people say that TLJ is a feminist movie. It actually amazes me that peöple think it isn't.

The pröblem isn't "höw dare a girls schoöl have a tee shirt with a play ön the theme öf girl pöwer". The pröblem with saying the förce is female is it literally means that the förce is nöt male. Wörds have meaning. The shirt shöuld have said the förce is alsö female ör the förce can be female.

I don't see how that changes anything. I don't care who gave them money for it. You can believe and argue about Star Wars any way you like, but this image used as a meme is of a bunch of repurposed Nike tee shirts used at a girls school film festival where Katherine Kennedy was invited as a speaker, which makes it WAY less of a compelling statement on Katherine's politics or leadership of Star Wars than the image initially appears to be when just dropped in unreferenced and uncontextualized. Not that the image's context will prevent it from continuing to be used because *blah blah blah* "FEMINISM".

Also; to the people who were upset or frightened by my "polemic"... the truth hurts?
