Luke Skywalker 1,795 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 It would make more sense as the daughter of lando or descendant of Mace windu, really.But anyway, a granddaughter or grandniece of obi wan could be black...

Matt C 454 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Picard bulked up?The most recent few series of Dr. Who has had episodes that looked very good visual and SFX wise, but I guess they never have the budget to sustain that level of quality throughout a series.Also, the way British TV shows are lit and shot just seems different, even if they do have a budget.The episodes I've seen of Who simply don't look that striking -- apart from the 3D Day of the Doctors special, which is ruined by terrible editing and Dalek shrieking. It's constrained by a typical TV-level budget, nothing wrong with that. TV shows that tend to be more grounded (i.e. stories that don't require CGI or SFX) tend to look better because the budget can be spread out and used accordingly instead of a huge amount spent on subpar CGI.

Kelly from the Lost world was more unbelievable...In a galaxy with magical energy fields, faster-than-light travel, giant space monsters and lightsabers, do we really need to pay such close attention to racial accuracy? People trashed the 90s Cinderella film with Brandy because of its obviously incongruent character races. But so what? It was a fairytale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I'm surprised at you Luke. Surely a man of science knows that a child of mixed parentage doesnt have to be a precise 50/50 mix when it comes to skin color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star wars could use more people from other races.It's just that if they want a non caucasian main character, they can create new ones not neccessary to have them relate to old characters.

Wojo 2,453 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Giving Mace Windu a daughter is a bad idea. It suggests that Anakin wasn't the only Jedi to give in to his basic evil human desires, and it perpetuates a basic flaw of the Expanded Universe that new characters are somehow related to existing ones.

Sweeping Strings 2,360 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Just can't get used to the Disney logo in there with the Star Wars one, ugh.Still, as has been pointed out elsewhere we'd already reached the 'Yoda in mobile phone ads' point BEFORE the sale so I guess things can't get any worse.

Wojo 2,453 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I love the bit in Chasing Amy about Darth Vader. Three movies of him being this grand powerful Nubian god, but they remove his helmet to reveal a crusty old white man.

Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I think we're long overdue for a homosexual, mixed-race Star Wars villain with communist leanings, who is also an outspoken atheist. What is this, 1950? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makeshift Python 22 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 A black man as the lead character in a Star Wars film? Would be great, but I don't think that will be happening and Hooper X will still be spot on about Star Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I don't mind that S7ar Wars logo as long as they ditch the stupid prequel style titles that sought to emphasise the word "EPISODE" above everthing else.Besides the Disney one looks like the old SW vinyl cover!
