man you niggas are really realising your inner nerd with this shit. but yeah george lucus would do some shit like this. he did it with the prequel trilogy. i thin the only thing of george lucas that should be attached to starwars is his name. there should be a comity of writers, directors and producers saying "chill george we got this"

 

[Beta]

Comity instead of committee though? Lol

'Star Wars' Actor John Boyega Has the Perfect Response to Black Stormtrooper Critics

The first human face we see in the new teaser for Star Wars: The Force Awakens is actor John Boyega — and some people aren't too happy about it.

While the trailer for the seventh installment of the epic fantasy all but broke the Internet over the weekend, some Star Wars fans can't seem to wrap their head around the appearance of the Attack the Block star as a black stormtrooper lost in the desert in a galaxy far, far away.

For die-hard Star Wars fans, Boyega's appearance in stormtrooper armor doesn't mesh with the history of the fictional Star Wars universe. After all, aren't all of those stormtroopers meant to be clones of Jango Fett, merciless bounty hunter of Star Wars Episode III: Attack of the Clones, father of the enigmatic Boba Fett in the original trilogy, and decidedly not black? Others compared the trailer to a scene from Mel Brooks' classic 1987 spoof Space Balls, while others still offered, um, more interesting critiques.

"The black stormtrooper's name is To'ken, a warrior from the Social Justice squadron."

Boyega offered a classy response to his critics on Instagram on Saturday:

Boyega's right: Star Wars fans should probably stop obsessing over the significance — narrative or otherwise — of his skin color in the film.

"A black stormtrooper can very well be a black stormtrooper in the Star Wars Galaxy without there being any great significance to it," explains the Atlantic's Kriston Capps in his excellent analysis of race in the Star Wars universe. "What distinguishes the Star Wars universe from the Star Trek universe is the fact that, outside of the goose-stepping ranks of the Imperial military structure, its universe is pretty chill on race, if not totally post-racial. No one in the Rebellion bats an eye when Lando Calrissian and Nien Nunb copilot the Millennium Falcon during the Battle of Endor in The Return of the Jedi, even though the former is a black man from Bespin's Cloud City and the latter a fish-faced smuggler from the humid caves of Sollust. Neither of them appears to mind taking orders from Admiral Ackbar, the high-ranking Mon Calamari military mastermind, either."

So well played, Boyega. We're looking forward to seeing you kick ass come December 2015.

 

[Inglewood_B]

Wide nose, big lips and beady hair w/o a shape up. Unapologetically black. I love it. Get mad crackas

 

[Busta Carmichael]

Lol one comment on worldstar said

"White people felt a disturbance in the force when they saw a black man in the trailer"

 

[iron man1]

Crackers going to crack smh. I hope he becomes a jedi for real now and just steals the movie.

The thing that these so called hard core star wars fans don't realize is that after the events of episode 3 clones were slowly phased out. They are just racist nerds that feel the equality of people shouldn't even be in fantasy movies with the media giving them more attention than they should.

Also the Sith didn't particularly care for aliens, so they were raciest (spieciest?) Even without the Sith, in the cannon of all that shit that happened for the prequels Humans generally didn't trust aliens and some outright lynched aliens.

 

[dontdiedontkillanyon]

LOL at all these angry white kids/men with internet access getting upset over a black actor in a teaser trailer of their favourite sci-fi series. Funny how all the films have humans and aliens mingling with each other across planets, but the moment a black character appears white people lose their minds.

If his character becomes a Jedi and runs off with Daisy Ridley's character there will be mass suicides across the white male population... I can't wait!

 

[thefabmd2dc]

they mad because they could ignore all those characters but they can't ignore the main character being black.

racist logic

 

[Splackavelli]

they don't understand that clone troopers are clones of jango fett while storm troopers after the fall of the republic are just humans that were recruited. the empire was inspired by the Nazi's so I guess they would expect all imperial troops to be white. all that aside whites allways complain when they make a character black. they complained with new ultimate spider man, the hunger games, and the human torch. I want to make the whole justice leaugue in the upcoming movie black and give these idiots a heart attack.

 

[Focal Point]

Hell Han Solo was going into the Imperial force before being kicked out due to saving Chewbacca. Add to that the Storm Troopers were different sizes in the original Star Wars so definitely not clones.

 

[YoungChamp]

It's rare to see black folks in major character roles on such franchises: star trek or star wars. Besides Samuel But he wasn't the main character. Props to JJ for that.nevertheless I'm hyped for next December. I curious to see how stormtroopers come back since the empire was destroyed in return of the Jedi
