Re: The Reboots Improved Literally One Thing

[(Anonymous)]

Hence why I said the writers deserve PART of the blame. Because I do think Uhura's role is picked apart much more than fair. But given that there are flaws in the writing some of it is, undoubtedly, going to be legitimate.

Her role gets scrutinized more than other characters -- I agree
People disregard her role and contributions to the story -- I agree
Once people realized she and Spock were in a relationship, everything she contributed to Kirk's plot line no longer mattered -- I agree and disagree. Yes, some people do this. But the handling of Kirk and Uhura's relationship is not perfect either IMO. Like I said, I really dislike that Kirk can't seem to treat Uhura like an actual person and they can't respect each other until AFTER he learns that she's Spock's girlfriend. Quite simply, it reminds me too much of men in bars who won't back off until they find out you're "taken." It reinforces the idea that a woman (Uhura's) "no" doesn't mean anything and only another man's claim is worth respecting.

That blame can and most definitely should be placed on the writers/director and not the viewer in my opinion.
