    I’ve been thoroughly underwhelmed by every preview for this so far.

    I'm thinking Finn's gonna be dreaming for most of those scenes. As cool as it would be to see him be a non-Jedi using a lightsaber, I don't buy it. Might even be some mental conditioning that he's resisting.

    Still excited for the book to come out, though.

    I thought that was one of the anti lightsaber stormtrooper weapons?

    You're right. That's what I get for watching the trailer on my phone.

    While I won't go as far as to say that episode 7 was a "bad" movie.....

    The acting is just awful in it. Now I also understand that Star Wars isn't a franchise that is known for their Best Actor/Actress Oscar Nominations. But, C'mon Man.

    Neither Finn nor Rey can act a lick. It's like watching Hayden Christensen play Anakin Skywalker all over again. How those two got the leading roles in this epic franchise is beyond me.

    I think Daisy Ridley can act tbh.

    Christensen wasn't the problem, nakin was poorly written

    They were both bad, and also way way way way better than Hayden Christensen or Natalie Portman.

    Anakin & Padme is like top 10 worst acting performances in movie history. They’re so bad it’s almost on par with The Room. Finn & Rey is just standard medicore acting.

    None of this is a problem in the books.

    Yeah, except for the fact that you're a ing cheese reading Star Wars novelizations.

    Listen, I'm all for people who would rather read the book than watch the movie.....if the book came first. But preferring a book that's based on a movie, and refusing to watch the movie, is like a top 5 giest thing I've ever heard of in my life.

    I've seen parts of FA and R1. But I enjoyed reading/listening to the audiobook at my own pace. The novelization for R1 has gotten a lot of praise for how much more depth it gave the characters. Less lines, more character development, being able to do other things while listening, high production value that's not dependent on acting or special effects -- it's just a really nice experience.

    Can't be nearly as gay as that program shtick you used to have.

    .....hmmm, nope. Bragging online about reading a Star Wars book adaptation because you’re too good for the movie it’s based on is definitely gier. Now grab a tissue and blot those eyes, you don’t want to get your books all wet.

    Neither were as close to as bad as Hayden Christensen. It's like they took some noob who had bombed in his one high school play and gave him the part without even auditioning him. To this day, I still can't believe the incompetence in casting him.

    Some calling this one the best Star Wars film since Empire Strikes back is a pretty damn high bar but I guess we will see.
