John Boyega's Tweet Praising 'Bright' Gets Him Dragged Into 'The Last Jedi' Debate
No good tweet goes unpunished!
"Star Wars: The Last Jedi," which just came out on December 15 and is still hotly debated across the galaxy. So it's understandable that when he tweets something, it's received in the context of "The Last Jedi." Plus, people are always projecting their own perspectives onto everything -- we all do it -- leading fans to sometimes make faulty assumptions.
Case in point: This tweet from John Boyega:
You know guys..... people like things you don't....like it's a really big planet. Incase you forgot...

A lot of readers had the same misinterpretation, but some fans just appreciated Boyega's point on different opinions. Here's one response he replied to:
Had that same conversation with someone recently - whenever we view, participate in, or hear artistic work, we bring our cumulative life experiences, preferences, and biases with us. It's a good thing there's such variety in creative works! There's something for everyone!
