    I'm definitely more hyped about a star wars movie compared to star trek, was never really a fan of Star trek tbh.

    ‘Star Wars’ China Poster Sparks Controversy After Shrinking John Boyega’s Character


    Variety
    December 4, 2015
    Star Wars: The Force Awakens fans are menaced by the Chinese poster for the upcoming sci-fi epic.

    The poster has sparked controversy online over stylistic changes, one of which resulted in the diminished presence of John Boyega’s lightsaber-wielding character.

    Here are some tweets about the poster:

    Aside from giving BB-8 more prominence, the biggest discrepancy between the two posters is the shrinking of Boyega’s Finn and the positioning of his body. Boyega, who plays a lead role, is lowered down from the original poster — where he’s the third largest character after Adam Driver’s Kylo Ren and Daisy Ridley’s Rey — and tucked under Harrison Ford’s gun-toting Han Solo and Carrie Fisher’s Leia, and behind a much larger BB-8.

    Meanwhile, other non-white characters, including Oscar Isaac, who plays rebel pilot Poe Dameron and Lupita Nyong’o, who plays alien pirate Maz Kanata, as well as Chewbacca have been cut out altogether. They’re replaced by X-wings, TIE fighters and rows of Stormtroopers.

    The poster was released earlier this week along with the announcement of the film’s release date in the country. Star Wars hits theaters in China on Jan. 9 — about a month after its worldwide release on Dec. 18. Some of the movie’s stars are expected to attend the gala premiere in China.

    The casting of a black actor, Boyega, in the role of a Stormtrooper, was initially met with backlash. “To whom it may concern … Get used to it,”Boyega said late last year about the issue.
