Why isn’t he in the Sequels?

Why isn’t he in the Sequels?

They found a backier man

There can't be 2 black guys in the galaxy at the same time

I missed him and one of the hutts in the casino scene

because he's actually likeable and would overshadow whatever new diverse shit they're pushing

Billy Dee had the good sense to stay the fuck away from this shitshow.

...

Because Billy Dee Williams is old as fuck and confined to a wheelchair. Lando is also in that weird middle ground where he's not important enough that he HAS to be brought back but he's important enough where it'd be weird if he was just a background character like Ackbar or Nien Nunb

It would throw off the whole ratio. People would think Star Wars would just be a black movie.

>Because Billy Dee Williams is old as fuck and confined to a wheelchair

Why are you lying?

weird. My mistake. For some reason I thought he needed one.

That said, he's still old AF

>put lando in the new movies
>muhraysu, emoman, buttbuddies poe and finn, every new character is overshadowed by the character with actual charisma and depth

So was Carrie Fisher and the rest of the crew. Give Billy Dee the Disney workout treatment and he’ll be looking like the baddest motherfucker in the retirement home.

This too. Yeah he may be old, but charisma never dies.

Why? They would just kill him off

Seems like he will be in IX or there must have been some underlying reason why he couldn't or didn't want to be in it, because they've brought back pretty much every other goddamn character.

Never before has a post been more THIS

hes a respectable black man instead of a shuck and jive minstrel show

>Lando died two years before the rise of the first order, everyone of Cloud City turned out for his funeral

He was the only one who lived a happy life.

I don’t think he’s confined to a wheelchair but IIRC he is semi-senile at Star Wars conventions

Having a Lando cameo there would've made perfect sense. What a fucking waste

Billy D used to be so classy. Jesus Christ has literally ALL of Hollywood given up and started dressing like beach bums?

Because the OT wasn't diverse. Disney is finally brave enough to bring PEOPLE OF COLOR to the Star Wars universe. Finn is the first but he sure won't be the last! OT Nazi fans BTFO!

He's Snoke lol

are you a schizophrenic

EY MAYN THAT NIGGA A MUFUGGIN TOM AND JERRY ASS UNCLE TOM NUGGUH *sucks air through teeth*

Because he is an Uncle Tom character. Star Wars is moving away from tasteless stereotypes.

BASED black man

>cue the unemployed janitor Finn chasing this white girl across the galaxy in hope of some pussy

most old people i know give zero fucks about their outward appearances and just dress comfortably.

Still a more layered character than 'Smooth Black Male'. This kind of character doesn't fly in the 21st Century.

Mark warned him.

Only one token black guy is allowed per movie. Lando was at least done right, though.

Finn has nowhere near the complexity of Lando. Are you completely retarded?

Because when it comes down to it, even though it would have made sense to invite a black actor to get some work in a reboot of a franchise he helped create, they're not actually interested in addressing racism, inequality or whatever. They're more interested in stoking the flames so they can exploit the public's tendency to accessorize and consume products in alignment with their politics. Plus, they would have probably just killed him off in some stupid way. Better to imagine he's out there somewhere making money in the private sector, except apparently only arms dealers make any serious money in that universe somehow...

>someone must have told them about my little maneuver at the battle of taanab

shame it wasn't a hyperspace-ram

I heard he was begging to come back

If I were him, I'd stay the fuck away from star wars after this last one, he hasn;t signed any contracts, he can talk maaad shit about it and Disney can't do anything

Ahh, yes. The character who betrays his friends to the Empire or the character who is loyal to his friends. I wonder which one is more complex and is generally a decent human being which represents their ethnic group better.

He did lando in battlefront 2 so obviously not.

Lando only betrays them (only Han was a ""friend"" of him by the way) to save Cloud City. And he spearheads the assault on DS2 while convincing the fleet not to retreat.

was thinking of buying it in the sale. feel free to talk me out of it.

This desu.
Some places are already selling it for around $30.

It's not as terrible as people make it out to be but it has some glaring flaws
>Some matches have terrible lag issues
>Winning or losing a match makes zero difference
>Missing a bunch of heroes they could've easily added (these will probably be added in free updates though)
>Starcard system is pretty stupid
>Every normall class only gets 3 weapons to unlock

it's treason then

How come lando didnt show up when leia called, but still showed up when the cast of the lego movie did?

>we need diversity wars!
>what about billy dee williams he had a memorable part
>no fuck him we need fat asian girls
Every. Single. Time.

Say what you want, but I want Rose to suck my dick. Her sister was top qt though.

i'm proud of you guys

nigger

>episode IX
>finn and rey break into the first order archives to find out who their real parents are
>her parents are luke and leia skywalker
>his mother is an ewok named jujuba
>father is unknown criminal who left him at birth
>address is 4536 vespian dr, cloud city

Because they needed room for more strong independent women. Even being black couldn't get him in.

He was arrested a long time ago for beating his girlfriend. Can’t have him in a feminist movie in the #metoo era

Sure let's just bring everybody and make this a movie about the Original Trilogy.

This was one of the disappointments in the film for me. They have a casino scene and they don't have Lando there? He could have been the guy in the jail instead of Del Toro, who brought nothing interesting to the film. It's not like he doesn't want to be Lando again, unlike some bitter old man who made his career with a Star Wars character. If he can make time to be Lando in the Lego Movie, he can surely make time to be in an actual Star Wars film.

You wouldn't be coming to TLJ's defense if you saw it.
