^ I'm assuming Pacific Rim.

but even if you don't like the movies that he's in, idk if you can blame him for their quality.

he did a good job with what he was given, IMO.

edit: too late

It's ugly as dogshit. Yeah and those new star wars movies sucked...not because of him but a combination of all of them.

Fuck no. Horrendous story, completely disrespected the original, the visuals looked worse than the original that released five years prior. There really isn't anything redeemable about Uprising.

I don't know about Pacific Rim, but it wasn't his fault with Star Wars. He's been very vocal about disliking how things went with the sequel trilogy.

I doubt he had any influence on Pacific Rim. Some actors have a lot of clout but Boyega isn't one of them.

John Boyega was one of the producers on Pacific Rim: Uprising, as well as being the lead actor. He definitely had influence.

How?
he said he hates racists. then someone mentioned something about a racist black person they knew. and he said "nah. I only care about racism against black people"

he is one of those people who thinks only black people get treated racistly. and doesn't care about racism to anyone else.

I like him as a dude. Seeing him in interviews, BTS stuff, and his sense of humor on his social media makes him seem really cool and chill. Also I love his voice lol.

But yeah I dont really think Ive been blown away by any of his performances.

Yep. First discovered him in Attack the Block, which I only watched because Nick Frost was in it coming off Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and Paul.

I fucking loved the nighttime atmosphere of London and vicinity and Boyega was badass af in the movie.

But I feel like he got robbed with Star Wars and probably not going to show up much in the future. He doesn't seem to have much lined up.

I mean I liked him in Star Wars (I enjoyed TLJ don't @ me). And he was real good in Attack the Block, but I haven't seen anything else he's been in.

So I guess he's Okay? I wouldn't go watch a movie just because John Boyega is in it, but he's pretty solid.

not just that. he doesn't care about other races. if there were 2 cases of white people being racist, one to black people and one to asians. he would only care about the one towards black people. and if a black person was racist to an asian he also wouldn't care and might even laugh

I kinda do. What won me over is that he shows up in a video on Star Tours at Disney Hollywood Studios down in Orlando. The setup is that he's Finn calling your ship to transmit some message or some shit, but it looks like he just recorded himself in his car on his phone. He's just rocking around in his seat. The image of him doing this himself won me over.

You know what his source is? Someone asked Zikten, in the topic about John Boyega tweeting idiotic garbage, if he thought John Boyega would care about blacks being racist towards asians, and Zikten said no. His source his himself, in the fantasy world he created inside his own head.
