I'm no Joss Whedon fan, but the nature of Fisher's complaints raise some serious red flags for me.
I've personally worked with two very talented professionals who increased the value of their respective companies by ten fold, who were driven out by cries of 'abuse' and 'racism' from young employees who seem to view anything that isn't sugary praise to be a personal attack.
I'm guessing he signs up to be a pilot, and instead gets stationed as a Mud Trooper in some garbage backwater, then goes AWOL... and so begins the story of Too Fast, Too F... orce sensitive... or something.
I loved the fact that her parents were nobodies. It was honestly one of my favorite points of the movie, and really, just about the only thing you could do that would be surprising.
It's amazing to me how all the people who whined about The Force Awakens being derivative of A New Hope are now whining that The Last Jedi didn't just copy every beat from Empire Strikes Back. Make up your minds, ya milk babies.
@streamline: Throwing something that far that still had that much force when it hit the target would require and arm that literally moves at supersonic speeds. There's should've been a BANG! sound when threw that spear, lol.
@shade8nj: I honestly thought they were setting him as some sort of Typhoid Mary figure with that montage. I figured he'd risk the dangerous greyscale treatment, become infected himself, and spread it through the Citadel because he's in physical contact with everyone in one way or another. That seemed like something GRRM might do... one of those trope-smashing things. People who take big, heroic risks tend to screw up everyone's lives in his books.
