Star Wars: The Force Awakens

[ChumpDumper]

Disney delays ep 8 till December 2017 because it it couldn't get #1 overall over Avatar so they want to block Avatar 2.

Bruised ego.

Think about it -- making new Star Wars films a holiday tradition every year is a pretty good idea.

Saw it last night with all of 10 other people at the Bullock.

Agree with the sentiment it was a New Hope retread. Can anyone outside this family have anything important to do? The new characters were likable though they don't look to be iconic. Nice how most people respected the no-spoilers sentiment all this time. Pretty messy but an OK restart to the series.

I'm surprised you just now saw it. I expected the only people to be watching it now are people watching it for the 2nd and 3rd (or more) time.

It's so much more enjoyable without the crowds. Most times I can wait til a show comes to the discount theater, but I will s out for fancy IMAX every once in awhile.

I believe the Rogue One anthology type films come out in the years in between.

I was slightly hoping to see Jar jar come out with C3PO just for meltdown sake

You consistently have ty takes, but this is my exact beef with TFA.

Well that's casting today. George Lucas was actually a good director of actors back in 77 and ripping off Kurosawa made it kind of a cinch that the characters would be memorable. These new guys are hamstrung by the story that rips off the ripoff. Too bad they killed off TR8R, in 30 seconds that guy exuded all the rage that Kylo Ren Ben Organa Solo was supposed to have.

I think Finn actually has potential if they can flesh out his background without being stupid about it. There's got to be something to a guy that broke from a lifetime of that conditioning.

I like how Finn held his own for a while with the light saber except that Emo Ren should have just choked him as soon as he picked it up.

I think you're exactly right. starts to fade when you make a copy of a copy of a copy. That's all the more reason why TFA sucks .

I also thought Kylo Ren in the very first scene exuded all the rage that KRBOS was supposed to have, but I can see the TR8R point too.

There's a large pantheon of characters/tropes in the expanded universe. It would've behooved Disney/JJ to have sampled it.

My question has always been who was Kylo talking to when he had Vader's helmet. Maybe it's Snoke pretending to be Vader to manipulate Kylo, hence Kylo talking to the helmet.

Finally someone realized Jedi are antiquated micromanaging gots

It is just a teaser, glad they didn't show too much... yet.

[Chinook]

Thought it looked pretty good. Finn better not stay in a coma for the whole movie/book though.

[Silver&Black]

Trailer looked aiight.

I only hope Rey and Finn learned how to act since Episode VII.

Yeah but what they did show seems like a regression. That whole "light....darkness.....balance" is like something straight out of the prequels. I trust Rian Johnson, but this trailer didn't excite me at all.

[lefty]

You can hear Leia whisper "help me Obiwan I'm your only hope"

Pretty sure I heard Yoda too

[lefty]

I meant you're our only hope lol

The force awakens licked nuts and my expectations for this Disney jack off festival overrated is near zero.
But yeah I'll see the new one.

Disney thanks you for your patronage.

I really enjoyed For e Awakens and I think it did what it set out to do which was be nostalgic and get adults excited about Star Wars again. Now they need to break the mold a bit in TLJ.
