Men of color do not have the same power and privilege as white men I’ll try to organize my critique of these articles in the points below:ġ. It’s concerning that there are many articles online that are complicit in this erasure. Furthermore, by describing characters exclusively by their gender, we ignore and erase race. The problem I have with this critique is that it lacks nuance and represents a failure of understanding intersectionality (PDF link). When I took to social media to voice my critiques, I saw a significant number of people making a different argument: the film lacks women and is dominated by men. What we see are the harsh consequences of living under the oppressive rule of the Empire.Īs much as I loved Rogue One, I acknowledge that, like anything, the film has its flaws. We see Rebel leaders deliver questionable orders and commit terrible acts of violence in the name of the Rebellion. Rogue One doesn’t adopt a simplistic framework either in the Rebellion’s struggle against the Empire. I know the prequel films get a lot of hate, but they show more ambiguity and grey areas between the Republic and the Separatists (and this is developed deeper in The Clone Wars). In fact, Rogue One felt like a live-action Clone Wars episode, especially the Onderon arc where we first see Saw Gerrera and his sister Steela Gerrera (side note: I think it should be mandatory for people to watch these episodes before watching Rogue One to fully appreciate Saw’s character). Rogue One, on the other hand, had stronger and more complex political themes that were more reminiscent of the prequel era, especially The Clone Wars animated series. Aside from the racially diverse cast, I thought it was unfortunate that The Force Awakens didn’t take risks or delve further into the Star Wars mythology. While I enjoyed last year’s The Force Awakens, I felt that the film was missing spiritual and political themes that were quite prominent in Lucas’ previous 6 films. I saw the film on opening night right after my class ended and I was enthralled all the way through (it also happened to be the last day of my semester, so it was the perfect way to celebrate).
Do not read any further if you haven’t seen the film yet and don’t want to be spoiled! There are also some major spoilers for The Clone Wars animated series.įull disclosure: I loved Rogue One.
