    No, it assumes that over 30 years Leia would have noticed a change like that.

    Well, I wasn't trying to be rude about it. At this point all we can do is make speculations/assumptions, it could very well turn out that you are correct about this.

    i don't even have a position. i was exploring possibilities. sometimes people say things because they are considering them not because they have some locked down position.

    Is she wearing something on her head?

    Could be her halo that's slid down.

    I really hate her look... It's too Hunger Games for my liking!

    She has to contrast Leia.

    The original Star Wars took beats from popular genres at the time.
    Nothing wrong with modern Star Wars doing the same thing.

    Eh there's nothing too unusual there, aside from the pink hair of course. But that'd be far from the weirdest visual design that we've seen in these films.

    Plus it makes her stand out.

    Star Wars NEVER needs to take beats from anyone! [face_not_talking]

    Flash Gordon serials, WWII dogfight videos, Ancient Rome, Akira Kurosawa and John Ford films, etc. Heck SW was all about George Lucas paying homage to the media that he loved growing up, while giving it a new setting/twist as well.

    Her costume also looks nothing like something from "Hunger Games." I imagine the only reason some people are saying that is because of her purple hair.

    It's also not the first time that we've seen dyed hair in Star Wars (though it is fairly unusual in the GFFA). Just wish we could have seen her in the trailer.

    Is her hair (the character, not the actress) meant to be dyed? That might just be her natural hair color for whatever reason. And her outfit looks like someone that could have easily come out of, say the PT-era.

    Star Wars should continue taking beats from the old stuff George grew up on, but please no Hunger Games or similar recent stuff :)

    So no female as the main lead. Gotcha.

    We need to change the ST back to main male lead. You heard him.

    :p

    dyed. she dyes it all the time in the leia novel. it's like a new color every scene she's in. unless of course it just changes colors on its own. or perhaps she has a remote for it and sometimes she accidentally electrocutes herself with it after she's made it too bizarre - hair static is terrible.

    i was kind of lapsing into lame humor, but it really was different every scene in the novel. she was 16ish though and i think that by now she might just stick with one color for a longer period of time. in the leia novel she would wear super colorful clothing too because the culture she came from on gatalenta was so drab - a lot of grays and reds or something. she was trying to express her individuality. so it might be that now she dresses in less shocking manners but still keeps her hair different.

    when ph said (?) her hair color was cultural, it seems it means "counter culture."
