I’m willing to give her another episode as the Third Sister to see if it improves …..but I don’t care about her color or whatever……I care that I don’t buy her being a sinister Inquisitor. Her ‘mean’ demeanor is forced and feels contrived and if we weren’t told about this apparent drive or quest for power or to stand out we’d never know it. That type of trait would and should be apparent in the way an actor carries and presents themselves yet it’s absent. It’s not all her fault but casting is a major part in storytelling obviously and IMO they missed the mark with her.
Yeah, I agree. I didn't find the character very convincing at all. Same with the fake Jedi guy - it took me right out of the show for a few minutes. Anyway, is he not playing a very dangerous game pretending to be a Jedi, when they are literally being hunted to extinction all around him?
I understand where they were going with Leia, trying to make her into a precocious, strong-willed child as a sort of precursor to who she would become, but I think they just pushed it too far. The chase scene with Flea was unintentionally funny. It was like playing "chasies" in the school playground.
Will keep going with the third episode to see if it settles any better for me.
I have to say, I really hate the racist stuff on Twitter. I swear, social media seems to bring out the absolute worst in people. But, having said that, I'd be concerned that it's hard to give legitimate criticism, or say you didn't like a character, or the dialogue was clunky, or whatever, without being labelled as an -ist of some type.
I wonder what people would have made of the the introduction of Lando in ESB, if Twitter was around in the day??
