Thank you, thank you, thank you for sticking it to the harassers and recognizing The Last Jedi.

It’s still about the Skywalkers. It’s about Luke and it’s about Ben. They’re Skywalkers, and they play key roles.

Kylo Ren is a Skywalker. The story is still about a Skywalker.

By the way, just for the sake of accuracy, it’s doubtful 45% of the audience even dislikes this movie. First, anyone can make an account on Rotten Tomatoes with different emails and spam the system, which haters and trolls are more likely to do. Secondly, the movie has an A Cinemascore, which is considered a more…

I loved the Last Jedi and this is coming from a guy who thought Force Awakens was at least better than the prequels and lukewarm on Rogue One. The lesson here is Star Wars fans don’t know what they want and their complaints should be ignored.

He’s refuting the allegations of blacklisting. The line is only confusing if you are being deliberately obtuse.  Perhaps you can disagree, but you knew what the author was getting at. Unless you are particularly dense.  

Lol you guys hate women so much

No the alternative is to shut the fuck up and listen, like I said.

No because he’s got the fucking stones to think who gets “let back in” and “what we can work with” or whatever the fuck should ever ever ever be up to him or, really, any other guy.

It is exceedingly amusing to me when people make confident, completely inaccurate statements about how this website is run. To pull back the curtain on this particular discussion: There is no quota on the number of Newswires published in a day. This story was just a bit of fun.

To those people who always say stuff like “Spoilers don’t bother me. I don’t get what the big deal is”.

Premise: Spoilers don’t matter. If you liked a movie a second time, see? Takeaway: This falls flat. If they’re going to watch again spoiled and enjoy it, a: do you know for a fact it’s enjoyment in exactly the same way? I re-watch Aliens because it’s fun and I laugh about it with my friends, not because I get the same…

Summary: “There’s no gender imbalance,” says person favored by status quo.

Ok, you seem on the level (read: not a troll), so I’ll engage for a bit.

Men have been told their opinions are paramount for millennia. It hasn’t made them listen to women.

Okay, but please keep in mind that you’re the guy arguing in favor of men’s voices continuing to drown out women’s.

M’eh, the DS9 finale has some really terrible stuff (everything with the pah-wraiths, basically, which is empty fantasy nonsense out of a twelve-year-old’s D&D campaign), but also some stuff that’s pretty terrific (the fate of the Cardassians and of Odo).

I know there’s a significant portion of the Trek audience who feel the way Sirtis does, though I’ve always been on the pro-DS9 side of that argument myself.
