It hasn’t been that long since “tru fans” were gatekeeping women fans in the Star War fandom (and scifi in general). It’s why sites like The Mary Sue happened, as well as women taking to podcasting. Gatekeeping female fans is no longer much of a thing so the pathetic assholes have moved on to other target rich

And this is the frustrating thing because many people have been warning about toxicity in fandom (not to mention social media) for years now. So many people, in particular POC and LGBT creators, have been warning about how malignant this particular spectre has been ever since Gamergate, if not before. If Disney’s

Like a lot of people, I think they thought it was just a few nutjobs in the fandom and figured not giving them oxygen would make them go away. There is also the idea that they didn’t think it would cost them any money to do nothing.

So, by all accounts this is LFL actually listening to John Boyega when he had a frank conversation with them:

Hopefully the lesson that they should have been more vocal at the time instead of ignoring it.  Allowing those sentiments to perpetuate among “fans” with no pushback from the others involved led to this situation.  Begging the question, do they hate Lando Calrissian too?

After two-plus decades of many of its creatives getting targeted by online hate, Disney/Lucasfilm finally learned their lesson after being rightfully and repeatedly lambasted for not publicly standing up for their people.

I’m glad Ingram is getting this much support, but it just underscores how easy this would have been to do when John Boyega, Kelly Marie Tran or even Daisy Ridley were getting avalanches of hate when the sequels came out. What changed?

The existence of Wacky Date Rapist Quagmire alone is worth a little hate. He also gave work to James Woods, knowing full well that Woods is a conservative jagoff. Casual misogyny. Unnecessary trans panic jokes. Musical episodes that function as essentially one man karaoke (every Stewie/Brian Road To episode). Which

Ooh, remember when Jeff Goldblum and Saffron Burrows did L&O Criminal Intent for a season? That’s a detective team I’d welcome back!

A lot of people were pretty pissed (or, if not quite rising to that level of emotion, pretty unamused) with his opening number “We Saw Your Boobs” at the Oscars.

I wasn’t expecting much, but how do you not have a single scene with Jack and Jamie interacting? That was just astonishing.

“Logan DEFINITELY ain’t coming back for a 3rd time.”

Although to be fair I bet Tatooine's two suns are the worst case scenario for premature aging

I tires of the complete lack of even a half-hearted attempt to proofread ones own work at this site.

I don’t really believe this crap but it would be funny if he got to Heaven and Jesus was like “My man,  I love that “Personal Me” song!”

Ugh, so many things wrong with this comment.  Not surprising that you don’t realize that Mandy Moore is not her character.

Doesn’t matter in this case the 1988 Supreme Court ruling in Hustler vs. Jerry Falwell established parody as protected free speech. 

I’ve barely ever paid attention to Swift; I’m pretty old and modern pop music.... well. But I watched that documentary Miss Americana, and belatedly began to realize that she’s quite the talent. That ten-minute version of “All Too Well” (not sure I’ve ever heard the original) was a knockout.

It was absolutely, and famously, her scarf. Something, something, fired for that blunder.

I still can’t get over that Swift performance, and I’m a middle-aged dude who doesn’t even listen to her music. I know it’s ridiculous that she got so wrapped up in a short-term relationship with an older guy who obviously wasn’t as into her. That’s not really the point.
