I just saw the new Star Wars. I thought it was a lot of fun and really well done. Any thoughts?

I want to see it, but I heard the feminists and soyboys hijacked the storyline. Supposedly it is about a strong independent woman who don't need no man.
Do we know the sjw and feminism was intentional? I didn't look into it.
But at the same time, how is it wrong to portray a woman as a strong independent leader? She is single and grew up alone, right? As for the race stuff, I'm not exactly sure what is being referred to.

This is coming from a more of a Star trek guy, but have seen all of the SW movies.Our family almost never goes to the movies, but we saw it today as well (as a Christmas gift for our 9-year-old). We enjoyed it!
There's a new word for me!
I haven't seen the movie, but I'm enjoying the reviews .
From what I've learned it is the new alt-right insult. It's supposedly those male feminists who drink a lot of heavy-estrogen products like soy milk.
Yes, it is dumb to portray women as being able to fight as well as men. Or as being war leaders.
he really needed to be sent off with a bang, such as defeating that big baddie by showing off the real power of the Force.I wanted to like it, but alas....I thought it cheapened Luke.
It was even better than Episode 2!

They finally got rid of that old grumpy white guy, Luke, as their goal is to just have minorities I think.Ironic that New Stars Wars went so feminist....the relaunch of Episode 1 (The Phantom Menace) a few years back was like a list of cliched racial stereotypes:
--A jivey rasta-man with dreadlocks and low-intelligence (Jar Jar the Jamaican).
-- A hook-nosed greedy merchant in a desert country who speaks with a Middle Eastern accent even and has a little hat like the Jews wear.
--The backwards sand people in robes who rob everybody. I wonder who they could be?
--The overlords with slanted eyes who create the the teeming hordes of drone armies who all look the same. They even mix up their Rs and Ls for crying out loud! And they all have Japanese-sounding names like Cato, Deku, and Koru.
--And Jabba's palace looks just a little too much like the Hagia Sophia.
Where are the SJWs when you need them! At least they could come around to urge body acceptance for poor Jabba and to call him "brave" and to remind us that "beauty comes in all sizes."
Here, I think you all need to read this scholarly article from a major university on "Race, Gender, and Colonialism in Star Wars": http://wesscholar.wesleyan.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1040&context=etd_mas_theses
STAY WOKE!
