Whining about "diversity" already ruined the movies...leave the mobile game alone.
Are you saying that some fans' whining had the power to actually ruin the movies? Or are you really trying to say that Finn being Black, Rose being Asian, and Rey being a woman ruined the movies for you? The diversity wasn't an issue with how the movies turned out, just like it wasn't an issue in the movies themselves. They literally just existed. The movies were bad because the writing was bad. That's it.
To the OPs request, I'd be for it myself. But I can't think of any characters worthy of being a GL that'd fit the bill (unless Ahsoka counts?). Depending on who you ask, that might be a shortcoming of Star Wars. But that's Star Wars. The main leads of the movies are white. As much as I love Lando or some people love Mace (or Boba Fett or Max Rebo or Droopy McCool), don't think they're GL material. - gsz5j8qhzpb45 months agoSeasoned Veteran
Is Ahsoka not diverse enough for you? Don't bring your petty political opinions to a galaxy far, far away. Given the next GL literally has blue skin, you don't know what you're talking about.

Can't tell if this is bait or... what exactly.
All of the GLs are major characters in the franchise, they fumbled Finn's character completely for some reason which means he'll most likely never be applicable and all of the attempts since then have been extremely poorly delivered and as equally recieved so there may not actually be a "more diverse" GL past Ahsoka for quite a while.

Yeah, thank Christ that Lando wasn't black, because then we would've hated him. And SW was clearly ruined by introducing the first female character in its history...Rey. I didn't say that diversity ruined the movies per se; go back, read it, then read it again. I claimed that people whining about diversity ruined those movies (and ruined a lot more than just the movies, by the way). Huge difference. People like you don't see a problem with KK wearing crap that says "The Force Is Female," but those of us with sense are wondering when gender became a thing with the Force.
Diversity was absolutely an issue with how those garbage fires turned out, no less. Rose being Asian wasn't any kind of problem; however, trying to shoehorn a character into a story where she plays no role and has zero importance other than checking the Asian box on the SJW checklist...yes, that's a problem. Adding garbage to a movie just to check off boxes is going to make the movie garbage. This happens other places, too. (Look at that Untouchables nonsense with Stallone. The foundation wasn't great to begin with, but just piling more and more people onto the credits makes it horrible and unwatchable.) Finn does nothing for three movies but scream "REY!!!" every five minutes, and Rey is just the bestest Jedi ever, completely beyond reproach. No need for a hero's journey for Rey; her hero's journey was just being born, obviously.
Yes, the writing was hot garbage, but let's not act like anyone expected better from Abrams. Of course, you already said that the movies "just existed," but then you cite the subpar writing for the movies' collective failure. Which road are you taking? Do you even know?
Don't even bother with a reply, because you clearly value messaging over good storytelling. You don't care what fans think, because Mickey loves you. Got it. I'm through with ya.
