Took me quite a while before I actually found that out.There also is the fact that it's pretty obvious the Stormtroopers weren't meant to be clones in the OT considering they all have different voices and the officers don't even have their faces covered..

I- is that a black clone?
It may be shit, but it's still better than Forced Diversity: The Cast, Progressive Pandering edition
>TFW when no one likes a teaser that was made after filming was wrapped up under a month a go.Seriously, the fact they had anything to show us at all is surprising. 1. Black guy and chick are the main characters. Neither are Jedi. However, the chick may undergo training by Luke. 2. "Sith" we see (probably) isn't actually a Sith, but someone used to the Dark Side, who collects Sith artifacts.3. Han Solo (may) grows to trust the collector, resulting in tension between him and Luke.4. Luke may be falling to the Dark Side a-la the now non-canon EU.5. Imperial forces we see are most likely fragmented factions from the Empire, now controlled by Moffs. 6. Simon Pegg is a Storm Trooper and has his arms ripped off by Chewbacca.

My guess is that it is then an 'early' lightsaber... which would make this guy a cliche 'ancient evil' fuck.

It's pretty sad that you're actually complaining about the race of a person.
this is a character who seems to only be skin deep while previous characters that happened to be black actually had a character that didn't revolve around their ethnicity.

Okay.Yes, because a character we know literally nothing about who appeared for all of 5 seconds in an 88 second trailer is only skin deep and only for the sake of diversity.Congrats, Mr Super Sleuth.

This new guy doesn't. Lando barely has more time in the Empire trailer than new guy, but he shows off much more character. New guy is relegated to a fucking jump scare to show off that there's a black guy in the film.Of course you'll likely ignore everything I'm saying once again in order to push your narrative that denies all evidence to the contrary.

You're the one who's grasping at straws here.I'll distill this even further for you.Being a suave rouge is an actual character trait that shows depth. Being panting black man isn't, this is prequel level depth here.

You're acting like one of those edgy sperglords who complained about the Heath Ledger stills of the Joker because they were too effeminate, and passing baseless autistic claims on post production material that hadn't been finalised yet.Your rhetoric reads like a post from the containment board itself. Probably time to stop browsing.
So basically you can't refute me
realized you fucked up when you tried to pin me as some sort of racist
and are now just throwing random shit on the wall in the hope that it sticks.
Good job. An "I'm sorry" would have gone over much better though.
Nice personal attacks by the way brah. Gotta get dem ad hominems in some how amright?
Fuck some of are you seriously closet racists. They show some stormtrooper panting (who happens to be black) and that's all you can think about? Get a grip.
I'm preemptively judging a character based on his lack of character. You and Lemon are the ones making it solely about race.Lando Calrission was only brought up because you two tried to make it about race and not about lack of character. You automatically assumed that because I was commenting on what seemed to be tokenism that I was a racist that hated black people. When in fact, wanting a character not to be token lip service to a minority group and feel like an actual person is about the farthest thing from it.Please go on your racist witch hunt somewhere else.
