What planet are you from?

He's not ugly, he just isn't AMAZINGLY JAW-DROPPINGLY HOLLYWOOD GORGEOUS OMG.

Not everyone can be a perfect airbrushed supermodel with an ungodly level of facial symmetry.

[(Anonymous)]

No, he's pretty ugly. You just can't say it because people will accuse you of being racist even though he's really the only ugly black celebrity aside from that SNL chick on Ghostbusters.

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT

IDK, he looks ordinary to me. But then again, I live in the real world and am used to looking at ordinary, average people who don't have especially attractive facial features and are just totally unremarkable.

[kallanda_lee]

Yeah I think that's it...he's, plain? But we expect slightly more from Hollywood.

[(Anonymous)]

But do we expect more from Star Wars? Star Wars never really was known for casting only the Hollywood brand of super hot and smoking - the cast has always been a bit on the plain side.

[kallanda_lee]

Me personally, no. As I said in another comment, that's not what I go see Star Wars for.

I don't *need* to be attracted to the protagonists. I liked the characters, I liked the movie, I want to see it again, I'm excited for the next one - so in my book it's an absolute win.


Frankly for me the could all be burn victims and I'd still go see it because Star Wars.


But to say they're AMAZINGLY JAW-DROPPINGLY HOLLYWOOD GORGEOUS OMG is just dishonest.

[fishnchips]

Sorry, that was me up there, forgot to log in. I actually totally agree! "Expect more" wasn't the right way to put it - more like "it's normal for Star Wars to not have a cast made up of only drop dead gorgeous people". To be honest, I actually really appreciate that about Star Wars haha!

[kallanda_lee]

Maybe I phrased it awkwardly. What I was trying to say is: we're so used to Hollywood showing exceptionally good-looking people, that we're surprised when they cast someone who looks like a normal person you could meet on the street. Even a slightly-above-average-cute person on the street would look plain compared to most Hollywood stars.

So rather I meant, people are commenting on their looks because Hollywood standards made us used to that, but I don't think there's anything wrong with the casting at all.

[fishnchips]

I thought that's about what you meant, but thanks for clarifying! I agree.

what into heck

[(Anonymous)]

wat

[(Anonymous)]

What? Boyega is average. If you want to see an ugly black celeb who is well known try Jay Z

[(Anonymous)]

Jay-Z isn't quite so bad when he's all by himself and you have no one to compare him to, but when standing next to Beyonce he looks like an evil troll from another dimension.

[(Anonymous)]

This made me LOL. And I'm thinking it should be a movie.

[kallanda_lee]

Yeah, but you know, one might argue that the majority of people would look like troll next to Beyoncé.

[iggy]

...he looks like a pretty normal guy. I mostly think he's adorable because he's so fun and charming in the interviews and in the film itself.
