The hate from Star Wars nerds for black characters turns me off from forum discussions.

The hate Mace was getting, my gawd.

Episode I: Mace is in like three scenes and is established to be on the same level as Yoda.

Fan :mjpls:reaction: he's the reason Anakin will turn evil plus he's a secret Sith Lord in league with the Emperor (even though Yoda cosigned EVERYTHING Mace does in the movie.)

Episode II: Mace again on the same level as Yoda, making calls without needing his approval. OWNS the hyped Jango Fett and saves the day.

Fan :mjpls: reaction: omg did you see that look on his face whe he killed Jango? He's a Sith. Plus why is he making moves without Yoda? Sith in league with the Emperor (again, Yoda cosigned every movie Mace made).

Episode III: Mace proven to be correct in mistrusting Palpatine/senators/Anakin plus he whoops the Emperor's ass (who he was supposed to be in league with)

Fan :mjpls:reaction: omg not only is he evil, he's even worse than the Emperor Anakin was right to betray him. Plus the Emperor faked it (Yoda and Obi-Wan cosigned his moves PLUS George had to come out multiple times to explicitly state that Mace legitimitely pulled the Emperor's card in that fight.)

Lmfaooo I love this. Pleeeaassseee let Finn be the main character through all 3 movies

I've got a very bad feeling about this.

Really hoping my man Finn ends up putting up a decent fight, at least.


looks like Kylo Ren has the higher ground :francis:

I don't think Finn dies. But I think Kylo Ren gives Finn that work and Daisy saves him. And it's revealed she has the Force inside of her. I hope they both have the Force, at least. It would suck for the black guy not to have The Force and have the chance to be the hero.

I still deep down believe Finn will be revealed to be the true lead in later movies.
Han Solo didnt have the force and he was the baddest dude in the OG trilogy though :takedat:

The reception this is getting everywhere is crazy to me. Am I the only cynical one? I guess I'm still bitter about the prequels but I can't forget the crazy hype surrounding the first trailer of The Phantom Menace, and look how that turned out. Yes, I really want this to be good because the OT is my shyt, but I'm frankly shocked at the excitement this trailer is generating, considering the past disappointments.

:snoop: sadly... yeah. That's how they see us. On this trailer and the last one every shot they showed of him the reaction was an awkward :merchant: type of silence. But most people simply acted like they didn't see him :russ:

The trailer people havent done a good job of displaying Boyega :manny:

Every other scene he's out of breath or looks confused. Doesnt make for a compelling "sell job" for one of the main characters.

Outside of the first scene with the light saber he's looks scared most of the time (for example after the best scene they show how he's really scared after all :beli:)


Most actors (outside of the elite ones) are only as good as the script/direction. I hope Boyega delivers or the people involved did a great job with his character..

otherwise....the fallout :mjcry:

Better technology and better director. JJ Abrams is batring a high average right now. And so is Disney for that matter. I think they all know the magnitude of making this flick so they all want to do the name justice and in a way I think they went into this wanting to make their own mark. I was one of the few people that didn't get hype for the prequels. Honestly the only one that really mattered was episode 3 and finding out why Anikin changed. This seems to be fresh and brand new. They had to include the OG cameos for maximum exposure to all fans new and old.

With all the greatness we have been getting from comic book movies, I dont think its possible for this to shyt the bed. A very clear precedent of quality has been set(it wasnt back in 1999, that was the age of shytty action movies), I seriously doubt they will allow this shyt to be trash. Disney has a good track record and so does JJ
