Pretty funny how The Knights of Renn turned out to be more underwhelming than Phasma.... in traditional Star Wars fashion

To The Captain Phasma Fan. I have a bad news for you.

Why would she be a First / Final Order prisoner if she was a member of the First Order? That doesn't make sense?
I feel like the way they explained it was poor (just nobody should've mentioned it as the was no reason to bring it up when talking about 100 star destroyers instead of one single ship). It does make sense that both the material cost and potential personnel cost of evacuating everyone in the ship only to have them shot down when their escape craft leaves makes it not worth doing. It did feel weird that the writers felt it had to be addressed.
It took out like twenty Star Destroyers behind the big ship though. But yeah I agree they shouldn't have brought it up at all, just explain it away in a comic or something
Nobody's a fan of Phasma, they're a fan of the character she could have been :P
It's the most hilariously petty thing in TROS. They make it a point tell the audience how ridiculous it is and how they would never use it. There were so many ways they could have respected something that audacious without shitting on it.
Would be like if in Battlestar Galactica, the season after we see the Adama Maneuver, someone brings it up and everyone throws tomatoes at him and calls them dumb for bringing it up.
Phasma was a miniboss not a character
Oh, so like Finn, Poe, and Rose?

Dunno, she put up a bigger fight in TLJ than Boba ever did. Boba literally just stood around till he sprung into action in ROTJ and then Boba gets smacked around by a jedi and a blind guy takes him out.
The Last Jedi wasted so much potential.
Smoke, dead
Phasma, dead
Luke, dead
That random hacker with the stutter, flew of to parts unknown never to be seen again.

JJ funny enough candidly stated that he was surprised that Rian killed her off- that he felt there was more to her story to tell
It's not the rock to be under. He's a great character Tha KS to TCW and Rebels.
What a waste. Also typical to tout her as this badass woman but give her like 2 lines of dialogue, <5 mins of screen time, and make her utterly insignificant and pathetic.
He's a pretty good bounty hunter I'd say. RoTJ didn't do him favours though haha
Boba successfully set a trap up to catch Luke, Leia, and Han in Cloud City...

I remember thinking that like Rey and Kylo, she would be Finns big bad.
But she never was more than wasted potential

Ok... I could be a fan of literally anything hoping they one day become a character. That would be on me though for having a really weird thought process.
good on Gwendoline Christie for getting the bag. she was in both movies for like a total of three minutes, and only one shot really even required her to be on set. probably got seven figures to show up on set for like two hours and then record the rest of her lines in an ADR booth.
I'm stunned by the number of characters that in the TFA era Disney was like "You're gonna LOVE this major new character, Wally Jabroo!" and then the haracter is on screen for like <5 minutes in the whole trilogy? What a waste.
I took the bolded for what was meant by saying it had a "1 in a million chance". Hitting the big ship may not have been hard, but taking out the rest of the fleet involved a lot of luck with the debris.
As for Phasma, I wouldn't mind seeing her survive this if it meant she gets a better story (like Maul did).
Shes got a cool design and a cool voice and a cool actress behind the mask
WHYYYYY dod they have to waste her
Atleast shes super fun to play in Battlefront 2

Probably one of the worst things in this sequel trilogy. She's literally there to sell toys because look at cool chrome stormtrooper.
Fun Fact: In the novel, Phasma literally murders Hux's dad by using a beetle from her nuclear wasteland home planet that turns him into Senator Kelly from X-Men
No you don't. It was executed brilliantly and made Maul into an actual character with an arc and far cooler death.
Shows that bringing back a villain can totally work under a good writer.
I don't hate the new trilogy like a lot of people here do, but it is really annoying how they introduced these really cool looking bad guy characters and did absolutely fuck all with them. The prequels suck, but at least like Darth Maul and General Grievous came off as a threat before getting merced.
