God. that's a terrible thing to say. I've never imagined that someone on this forum would write something like that. 

You really never imagined that at least one member of these forums cared about artistic integrity? Because that's all my beef is about. When you fuck with something as epic as Star Wars by conducting market research and then altering it's entire universe based off of said research... I'm going to have an issue with it.

But what is it about the movie that lacks in artistic integrity regarding casting female and black actors as principle cast? Is there some inherent requirement for the Star Wars universe to always have white males as the lead protagonist? You will have to expalin your purely artistic beef with these castings in order for you to not simply appear to be both racist and misogynist. Why is it so far off canon that it kills the franchise for you?
