Official Star Wars Facebook Page Strikes Back At Rose Tico Haters


Star Wars: The Last Jedi introduced Resistance hero Rose Tico (played by Kelly Marie Tran) but some fans are bashing her character, but the official Star Wars page is not having any of it.

After the page released a video of The Last Jedi featurette featuring Kelly Marie Tran's audition for her role, a few negative commenters bashed Rose, saying that's she's "the most useless character ever" next to Jar-Jar Binks. The page responded by listing down the deeds Rose has actually done in The Last Jedi, and the negative Force was shut down just like that.

"Prevented four Resistance deserters from stealing escape pods." The page wrote. "Assisted in the formation of a plan that would've allowed the Resistance to escape the First Order pursuit. Persuaded a fathier stableboy to enable her and Finn's escape from Canto Bight. Conducted an essential survey of available supplies available to the Resistance on Crait. Saved Finn from an inconsequential course of action that would've ended his life. For a character who did absolutely nothing, that's impressive... most impressive."

I don't think the issue was with Rose Tico's character or Kelly Marie Tran's performance, it's the Canto Bight plot that she and John Boyega's Finn are involved in. It even made it in our Top 13 Reasons Why Some Star Wars Fans Hate The Last Jedi.
