@HistoryBowsh @Independent When ww2 ended is as complex as when did it start. Japan vs the USSR didnt end on paper until 56 and there still disputeing the islands today.

It's funny how people parsed Star Wars as 'white' when to the extent this was visually true it was mostly a downstream effect of Lucas filming at Pinewood Studios in England When starting filming this cheesy space cartoon in 1976 was Lucas supposed to import a bunch of black Americans to be extras & side characters to match American demographics? And what's this about 'elite space'? What's 'elite' about any of it? The initial production was probably seen as a wasteful joke by many. There's also nothing even 'elite' *within-universe* about Star Wars. You wanted more of your race to be the nameless cannon-fodder evil stormtroopers? The yes-men Imperial officers? The dirty pirates/aliens on Tattooine? Which of these are 'elite' and made you feel sad for not being 'represented' in this supposedly 'elite space'? The whole innovation of Star Wars was that it *wasn't* elite - it painted space and this space-stuff as dirty, used-up, lived-in. It's all hindsight from the fact that it ended up making millions, it became 'elite' because it sold toys. 'So white'? Ultimately we're basically talking about 4 human characters (Luke Han Leia Obi-Wan) to divvy up amongst races and satisfy modern racial sensibilities. How many of those 4 were supposed to be black? 1? That would've staved off this critique? And what 'franchise'? It wasn't a 'franchise' initially. It was a crazy expensive Flash Gordon knockoff that few involved probably thought would even succeed, let alone have sequels and become 'a franchise' (which wasn't even really a thing). I like Boyega as an actor but this race-obsessed psychological reaction to a movie like Star Wars is just ridiculous and puerile. He (and anyone who thinks like him) needs to grow up.
Fandom Pulse@fandompulse

John Boyega in a 2025 Apple TV+ documentary on what it felt like to be a Black actor inside the Star Wars universe: "Star Wars always had the vibe of being in the most whitest, elite space. It's a franchise that's so white that a Black person existing in it was something. You can always tell it's something when some Star Wars fans try to say, 'Well, we had Lando Calrissian and had Samuel L.'" Three films as a lead hero and he still felt like a guest. Is Boyega right?

20 hours of content for a single player experience is insane. Every Star Wars movie back to back is 25 hours. The LOTR extended cuts are 11 hours total. Throw in The Hobbit to get to the 20 hour mark. 10 average James Bond films will get you to 20 hours. That’s just under half the entire catalog. Open world games really did a number on the perception of expected play time with games.

I love a shorter game, but not when I've paid #65+ for it. 007 First Light looks fun, but I'll definitely wait for a sale now.

Rocky Balboa was little more than a street slugger. Sure, he was fit but in real life he wouldn't last a round with a real fighter. Boxers have form and technique. Balboa had neither.

Why can't Pierce Brosnan play an Irish character with an authentic accent? He's fucking Irish for fucks sake.

I see the future: platforms assist performers to create AI versions of themselves, saving time and money on content creation and management. Performers send traffic to platforms. Platforms register the user accounts. Platforms leverage data to create their own AI accounts. Push those accounts to fans with card regs captured from performer accounts. Performers age out as they do. Platforms now own 100% of revenue. Never been a more relevant time to 1) create your own fansite 2) operate through private channels 3) monetize your fans through personal gifting.

@Lorgarwasright2 It honestly why Cathey has such shit lore. GW was hellbent on not offending china. They just ended up making fantasy china without any flaws. They'd never have the balls to have the Dragon family hunting halfings for sport.

@clydelouis @adonispara In zimbabwat it was to destory the economy base of polital oppolents and set up goverment control of people by food aid. The strong farming sector stopped that, its ownerships color didnt matter. You could vist any farm and find black farm workers that had the knowagle to run it.

@adonispara It's amazing how black farmers in Burkina Faso are doing so much better. Btw, white farmers in US and EU are losing their farms. Why is that? Because it's govt. policies that controls farming industries. It's less about white farmers vs black farmers then govt. policies.

Rhodesian farmers grew some of the best flue cured tobacco on earth. in 2000 zimbabwe seized their farms and gave them to politicians cousins who'd never farmed a day. tobacco fell 79%. by 2008 the country that fed africa begged the UN for food. this is what black rule looks like
