Well... did they? They prevented them from doing so, how, exactly?

So I'm guessing that "Rangers of the New Republic" was supposed to be specifically about her before the change. Now with her gone completely, I wonder what they'll even do with that show.

Assuming the rumors about Disney/Lucasfilm trying to make her apologize publicly for her way earlier tweets are true if she hoped to star in that... I almost wonder if they made up "Rangers of the New Republic" from the ether just to try and give her a carrot to do the apology and eat crow.

As in... now that she didn't, and doubled down... maybe "Rangers of the New Republic" quietly disappears.

I'm not even a huge fan of current Star Wars outside of the Mandalorian, but you're never gonna get through to a guy like that. He's quite literally too far gone. He'll stick around though, because they always do. They never have the strength to fully drop something they're not enjoying.

Vegita-san is a 45+ year old man who thinks SJW's control every form of entertainment.

Gina needed to go. She is awful both as a real person and as an actress. All her scenes in the show put me to sleep.

*snake* · 02-11-2021, 02:29 PM

One thing I did like about her was her physique. She looked like she could beat the shlt out of anyone who could step to her. Definitely refreshing compared to the twig bodies woman action stars usually have.

A few thoughts:

1. My take away was that her comment was meant to make a "slippery slope" argument, rather than compare the experience of right-wingers to the experience of Jewish folk.

2. She did nothing new or one-sided by comparing her idea of oppressors to Nazi. Pedro Pascal has essentially done the same thing, by comparing Trump supporters to Nazi.

3. I thought her comment missed the mark, because political ideology is different than race/religion prejudice. But she is entitled to her opinion.

Lot of people want Cara Dune to come back but as a different actress. People have suggested Lucy Lawless Michelle Rodriguez and others

Doomcock is the Qanon of slobbering pop culture enthusiasts. There’s a lot of similarities when you look at them, especially in regards to both having a religiously loyal fanbase who believe unfounded rumors despite being proven wrong time and time again. Trust the plan, right? lmaooooo

McCarthy either laughs or spins in his grave with the ultrasonic speed.

But seriously, if any idiot will say that "it is not a with hunt" and demRATS are "about empathy and democracy", they can eat **** here and now.

No-one buys you act, 'cubed.
Go back to salivating about Lesbians. It is much better image, than spit spitting SJW scum trash.

Also, complaining about someone's age, when you yourself constantly cry how old you are is just lol.

You mean SJW Wars? Which no-one likes or buys, like TLJ? OK. Well, you want to see SW to die that is...

~~Leo656~~ · 02-11-2021, 09:30 PM

Mmmmm... Lesbians.....

*Xav* · 02-12-2021, 02:43 AM

So how exactly was she "denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities"?

It would be great, I love them both.

*Andrew NDB* · 02-12-2021, 10:26 AM

Lucy Lawless is like twice her age. Rodriguez looks nothing like her. Both are tiny.

~~ABrown~~ · 02-12-2021, 11:02 AM

Wow. I liked Gina Carano even before all this. But now after everything that I've read #IStandWithGinaCarano.

Apparently comparing people based on their ideology (Republicans) with people based on their racial make up (Jews) is BAD!

While in normal circumstances I too would found this comparison questionable, given what had happened with her pretty much confirms that she is right. Of course, leftards incapable of figuring this out, but when totalitarian handmaidens were smart?

Never mind, that Pedro Pascal did seemingly the same, just about DemRATS.

Oh please. Opinions on the sequel trilogy aside, you people act like we haven't gotten any legit good Star Wars content since Disney bought Lucasfilm. I for one am enjoying new content like Mandalorian, the High Republic, etc.
