but a coloured stormtrooper !!! not to be funny but stormtroopers are clones of bobba fett ! wtf happened there ???
I`d Like to see them explain that one away ! Rebel infiltration. 
No, no, no, it-¦s really an allegory for a certain real-life superpowers tendency to recruit expendable human material from the bottom of society to purportedly fight and die battling "Terrorism" and in the name of "Freedom" while in truth the soldiers are just instruments to secure resources for the upper class to line their pockets (check that zombie-movie Land of the Dead for a similar message).... our stormtrooper friend just realized he is really the 99%.

Clones had already began to run out towards the end of the First Galactic Civil War, with recruitment taking place from amongst standard humans.
In all the fiction I've read in EU, I cannot remember anything showing the empire as White Supremecist. Specist, yes, Sexist, very yes (pretty much the only women to ever gain any kind of power in the Empire were Ysanne Isard, who was sleeping with the Emperor, and Admiral Daala, who was sleeping with Tarkin) but it always seemed that human, male were the only things they were interested in, not skin colour. |

I can't see the user of that thing being able to do that overly choreographed dancing they called fighting in the prequels. It gives me hope, that the saber fights might look like the fighters are actually trying to harm their opponent instead of performing for the camera.
There is a (formerly) canon explanation for this, that the flowy swoopy moves were designed more for countering incoming blaster fire, from multiple angles, rather than attacking your opponent. That being said, this got my blood pumping! EpVII can't be anymore boring than EpI. Follow the (new) canon and be action-packed; that's the recipe for a good Star wars flick. |

Remember, they threw all those novels out. Isard is now a "Star Wars Legend" along with Kyp Durron, Leia as a Jedi, Solo children, and hundreds of other things that we had come to see as conventional wisdom. |

True, but I doubt throwing out the EU has suddenly made them make the Empire White Supremacists. |

shurely a clone is exactly that ??? an identical match !!!
Meh !
There is nearly 20 years between episode 3 and 4. Plenty of time for new clones, conscriptions, etc. In the original, the stromtroppers were of different heights and voices.
