Incels and sexism seem to be playing a role in this hate fest.

That does seem to be the go-to excuse these days.

And that seems the go-to reply from Incels.

I am neither. This trilogy just has been stupid as hell. And I can give you a plethora of reasons for that. But yes, Rey is one of them. So if you want to jump on all the ST critics who demand Rey should have had more training, not been the most powerful Jedi ever for no reason, and should have faced some legit obstacles and had character development.... then sure accuse us all of being sexist.

If Luke were written anything like Rey, he would have found a lightsaber somewhere out under some sand in ANH and then would have proceeded to kick Darth Vader's ass before ever even uttering a word to Obiwan. He would've then whooped Darth Vader's ass in ESB and ROTJ.

Sexism is the reason female Ghostbusters failed, female Terminator failed, female Overboard failed, female Ocean's 11 failed, female Charlie's Angel's failed and will be the reason all-female Fight Club fails. So given all of this failure and wasted money that could have otherwise gone to something more productive like feeding the homeless, why not just start making movies that don't fail?

You make bad movies, you reap the rewards. These aren't some cinematic masterpieces getting a bad rap. They're unoriginal in their plotting, they misuse actors that are capable of far better (Isaac, Boyega and Driver have all turned in critically acclaimed performances in the past, and I'm sure Ridley is at least better than what we've seen), and they did the one thing they absolutely had to avoid: They shat on the legacy of the OT characters.
And yes, the prequels are still terrible in so many ways. But they have higher highs, as rare as they are. And some imagination.

I guess the same thing could be said about the Irishman

Could it? I haven't seen it. Does it continue on from another movie or series?

Absolutely.
Incels went "Waaa, whaaa, whaaa! Why is a nobody street-rat of a girl more powerful in the Force than my White male heroes!?" and Disney like the chasing-the-last-dollar fools they are went "There, there, my little loudest voice incels, we'll make her a Palpatine!"

I banged my sweetheart this morning, in my bed, in my house, where we both live.
I'm not an incel.
But Darth Thor already made my point so I'll just quote him and say these are my words, too:

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
