Nah.

You not NEED to be fluent in Clone Wars...but you should at least watch the 4 part finale, partly for context, but mostly because it’s the best SW movie since RotJ by a fair bit.

Making Crosshair the antagonist from jump was fucking brilliant.

Watch the last season of Clone Wars.

My main issue with the new status quo is that Cyke’s characterization only makes sense if Xavier had lobotomized him.

Random vanilla, placeholder white characters being adapted into meaningful black characters whose race informs their values is something I’ll take 8 days a week!

Oliver Sava’s been reviewing it for Vulture!

I mean...character is story and story is character.

Eh. Having Amber be a black girl who volunteers at her old community centre in the inner-city is meaningfully different from her being a white girl who volunteers at an inner-city community centre.

The flashback GUTTED me.

I mean...they got Zazie Beetz for the role, haha!

I’m assuming this is a case of Hughes having read a Wikipedia summary of New 52 Alan; haha

ONE PUNCH!!!

All about Finn/Han, my dude!

I have zero trouble believing that Sirius would cover his room with Muggle girls on motorcycles, haha.

What, getting Snyder to round out the trifecta of “Deeply unoriginal pastiche artists who couch their kitsch in pretty visuals,” haha?

I mean...26 years of that experience took place between 1917 and 1943, another 2 were in isolation in Wakanda, and the rest were as a brainwashed puppet...then he was wiped from existence for 5 years.

Honestly, the only people in that series who Boyega DIDN’T have explosive sexual chemistry with were Gwendolyn Christie and Kelly Marie Tran.

Filling that Attack on Titan-shaped hole in my weekend, haha!

Amber is a blonde white girl in the original.  Debbie is dark haired, but not necessarily Asian.
