If you're going to spend a large amount of time editing a whole new cut of The Last Jedi that removes pretty much all the women, you'd better be prepared for some feedback.

Lots of feedback.

Earlier in the week, Pedestrian reported that a 46-minute cut of The Last Jedi had been shared anonymously on Pirate Bay. The main difference to the original, it turned out, was that pretty much all the female characters had been removed.

Actress Priscilla Page made her feelings about the whole thing pretty clear:

A few minutes later, Last Jedi director Rian Johnson weighed in:

Everyone's favourite Jedi also had some thoughts.

Finally, John Boyega added his two cents.

Can't say it more clearly than that.
