That's fucked up.

Laura Dern is a queen and must be protected at all costs

I dislike her because Im unable to distinguish her apart from the fictional character Admiral Holdo. Laura Dern should have told Poe!

I'm fine with her not telling Poe, but she should have told the audience.

Holdo Aside.

She is a great actress and deserved her win. She has worked very hard for it.

It's terrible that a new generation of nerd virgin audiences are only familiar with her because of a shitty Star Wars movie they care so deeply for, and not stuff like Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart, Jurassic Park, A Perfect World, and like dozens of other high memorable dramas since the 80s.

there isn't even anything wrong with her SW work anyway, just a whole generation of angry nerds see non traditional coloured hair and freak out about SJWs.

Anybody who mentions SW first when talking about Laura Dern should be excluded from the discourse

I find it weird that actors and actresses basically have a free ticket to change their name to anything they want and she went with Laura Dern

If she had normal color hair it wouldn't have all of a sudden made the movie better then the piece of shit it was. The hair was probably just Rian being a dumbass as usual and trying to "subvert expectations." Seriously, whoever came up with this term should be covered in honey and left in front of a fire ant mound.

to play the devil's advocate, the military sop of communicating commander's intent was lost on her character in the film, but i don't think most critics were really thinking about that

For starters it's a lightsaber not a laser sword. The fact that Disney is pushing this for some stupid reason is criminal. You also apparently didn't bother reading the part where I said her hair color didn't matter. The movie sucked. It was shit. No matter what color her hair was it wouldn't have changed that it was, is, and always will be a terrible movie.
