JJ Abrams about the Emmys being too white

[@GeorgeWLucas]

He can't see past his own lens flares.

[@guilherme5094]

JJ should worry about how many franchises he's already killed.

[@JarJarAbrams]

He also made the worst Mission Impossible movie. Almost killed the franchise.

To be fair, TFA was unoriginal but not awful. Could have been a springboard for a much better part 2 and 3

[@thegooseman90]

He's working for WB now so probably Superman.

[@abadalfa]

@@farid1406 TFA actually narrowed the possibilities for a creative story in the trilogy as a whole. It's just the same plot as ANH but anyone can be jedi/gay.

Also this dude is calling out privledge yet he got his son a spiderman comic book deal jumping over many minorities who probably want to write for spiderman for years and went through the bottom of the industry and worked for decades lol So woke Jar jar..so woke. I'm inspired

[@omiorahman6283]

Hollywood and by extension espionage has ties to pedos and non con (Epstein) yet they give advice to common people on how to live. I bet the same people would dance around naked with joy if Roman Polanski arrived yet preaches female empowerment to people who don't work. There are cases of men and women exploited in hollyweird , nothing but crickets from these individuals

[@JarJarAbrams]

Scarlett Johansson rode the metoo movement and then went on to say she loves Woody Allen and would work with him anytime. They're all hypocrites and self serving

[@Murtagh653]

"do as i say, not as i do" it just goes to show you how little they think of us all, and how much they think of themselves, that they preach such virtue while practising none of it. i wish so many people didn't just sit down and take this bullshit, it's only going to get worse until people stand up to these self serving narcissists.

Real question is why did Spielberg say the force awakens was good. Wtf? This is dumber then the radio thing he did.

Politics

[@JarJarAbrams]

Spielberg is an asshole, he helped Kathleen Kennedy and JJ abrams ruin his "old friend" franchise.

[@G360LIVE]

@Litshttam With some good editing, TFA can be good. Removing Rey's Mary-Sueness and some bad dialogue is a start. Finn's character can also be improved by not making him the butt of jokes. Same with Kylo. Poe joking with Kylo at the start of the film messed up Kylo's character.

[@RSBounceLegend]

@Litshttam No, TFA was dogshit. Stop being delusional. Watch both side by side and you'll see a huge difference.

[@SabatSch95]

Pretty sure what he actually meant to say is it was "unbelievably fucking Jewish"... but apparently that's racist? Weird how that works...

You shouldn't be so obsessed with different colors. India is brown and we aren't craving for white or black or red people. Neither is China or Egypt etc. Diversity is a white obsession. It's OK to be of one color.

[@thanto575]

So different from Kubrick, Lucas, Herzog as they try to make the best imaginable film possible instead of placating to a certain group at the time. No wonder he constantly seems to backpedal.

[@tomimpala]

He made the show with no particular cast in mind and then went "wouldn't it be great if". He's not really a Kubrick director so it's a weird comparison. It's like a baker and a restaurant owner, like there's more than one way to make food.

[@THEBATMAN28AHH]

Creating a character and then picking their color is the most horrible way to create a character. You have to know what you're going for before you write them, that way the actor will fit like a hand in a glove.

[@steel5897]

The skin color isn't necessarily relevant to the character though, outside specific settings and contexts. You wouldn't cast a black actor for an historical show about vikings, or a white actor for an African biography, for example, that's just obvious stuff. Otherwise, I say the usual rule of picking the most talented person for the job applies regardless.

[@THEBATMAN28AHH]

@@steel5897 i see your point and that may be true. However from a psychological standpoint, we have to realize that whenever we create characters, we inherently create them with very similar characteristics to ourselves. It's human nature to put ourselves first. And if a person is created with a very specific look in mind, then we should cast someone who looks the closest and acts the best. I think by creating a race-less character, you lack the depth of a real human being.

[@blakestacy5405]

@@THEBATMAN28AHH Your race has nothing to do with who you are as a human being. There can easily be a black, white, Asian, South American, ect people who all act entirely the same and make similar choices because, although their culture may have some effect on their personality, their race does NOT. And In a majority of places at least some people of a majority of races and ethnicities exist. And in many places the main heritage they share is THAT place and growing up there. So while YES the best actor should be picked, NO race does not factor into who the best actor would be. It might be harder to find an actor of certain races to play a native Pacific Islander well (for example) but most films have MANY roles that could easily fit any race authentically.

[@THEBATMAN28AHH]

@@blakestacy5405 that's what I'm getting at. Maybe I worded it wrong but my point is that if you're creating a character, you have to have a mental example of what you're going for. We actually suck at creating original things. For example, Barret from Final Fantasy 7 has striking resemblances to Mr.T. weather that was intentional or not is up for debate, but the point is that when the creators designed that character, they obviously had a vision of what they wanted loosely based on something that already existed. I think that gives them depth. Your culture and your race does matter. It's what makes you an individual.
