Before looking I remembered when this happened and thought, yeah, they shouldn’t have caved and cut Finn out. Then I looked. Those bastards dropped Chewie from the poster???
I wish the West had some perspective on how much better they are handling social norms than the world is when it comes to matters of humanity. Most of Asia is racist as fuck and will eagerly punish people who are different.
Example:
A commercial in which a black man is shoved into a washing machine and turned into an Asian man.
Disney’s treatment of Finn was the second most painful part of the echoes of the force trilogy
The fact that it’s Finn AND the wookie says WAAAAAAAAAY more than anything actually spoken.
Yeah but presumably they watch the film, so what’s the point in changing the poster
There are a bunch of English posters without his face as well.
The west prioritises showing the faces of actors and China apparently doesn’t or they do with stars that are known in China.
If he was a nobody in the USA it’s much more likely that he would have a mask.
