That is so laughable and absurd how can anyone take that seriously.

I'd laugh, but I'm not sure if she's serious or not. I'm really concerned for the mental health of people who can say something like that. She might be in trouble. We, as a community, should rally for her so she gets the help she needs.

Poor thing. 🙁

this could be a pretty smart move on her part. A week before one of the biggest movies of this generation comes out she basically made her name synonymous with star wars. I just googled star wars and her and her comments are the second thing to be listed.

The idea of star wars having racial undertones is nothing new, from the lack of diversity in ANH to lando being a token black guy in ESB to jar jar being a spoof on slaves, the theories have been around for as long as the films themselves. She just happend to make herself a house hold name with it and probably increased her ratings dramatically.

Maybe to promote herself but her argument is downright awful.

oh its absolutely a terrible argument. But she would hardly be the first person to make a butt load of money and fame by saying controversial and dumb as hell comments that the majority of people disagree with. And in a business like entertainment where controversy usually equals high ratings and ratings equal money, this seems like a fairly smart move on her part.

My class voted me the most intelligent person in the class today.
