STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS Official Thread v.7 (Crosses $1 Billion Worldwide)

[heavyarms21]

She's around 19, Obi Wan died about 33 years ago. Could be his grandaughter but that's still farfetched. She's either a Solo or Skywalker imo.

The think that makes me doubt Solo or Skywalker is that Kylo and Leia are sensitive to

 

[heavyarms21]

To the Force and their wasn't a familiarity and though Kylo searched her mind he couldn't find a tell. Although she may have been indirectly guarding her past

 

[heavyarms21]

I really fucking hate What sherdog did to this fucking forum

 

[thetruth2709]

Maybe Rey is not a Skywalker, Solo or related to anybody, maybe the force just manifested in her spontaneously, just like it happened with Anakin a long time ago, maybe thats what happens with the force from time to time. I dont know maybe it is maybe it isnt just throwing the possibility there

 

[Jew Jif Shoes]

Who? And I can see the validity in that argument. That argument also applies to Joss Whedon.

My main issue with her is that she's able to overpower and beat Ren. He's had years of training. She hasn't. So that was just dumb. But it has nothing to do with her gender. It was dumb when Finn held his own too. Injured or not, Ren should have embarrassed them both.

And it kills hype for future fights between the two, cause the protagonist has already won and is only gonna get more OP from here on. There is no suspense in future show downs, we're almost guaranteed to see Rey prevail.

It would've also been nice to have a scene between Rey and Leia, where Rey asks her why she didn't become a jedi, since she had the blood for it.

And Leia would say something like, "Luke taught me a few tricks, but in the end I guess I'm just not very good at doing what I'm told."

I gave it a 1, because 0 wasn't available. I was really let down by how bad and cliche the whole thing was. I couldn't stand Finn, I wanted some star wars adventure with some interesting plot, and I hoped to see Han and Luke and Leia in a better place than a universe where literally nothing but bad shit has happened for 100s of years. It was depressing...I liked Rey, but all the other characters were lame. The Empire sucked, the sith guy was annoying, the storyline with Han and Leia and the stupid sith son that turned to the dark side. Dear god, how many times are they just going to do the same storyline? Blow up another death star thing, sure why not? Give literally anybody/everybody a chance to fight with lightsabres. So even with the insight of Yoda, Ben, and Anakin, Luke wasn't even able to train one jedi without them turning to the dark side? Can we just call it the emo side? Cause that sith guy was pouting like a little emo kid, and he kinda looked like all emo with his long black hair and his black on black armor, his wannabe darth helmet, he even had the crushed vader helm under his pillow...back to Han, I will say it was nice to see him and Chewie for a few, but you knew as soon as he saw his son he was going to get lightshanked...

What redeeming quality did the movie have? None that I can see. I never was even slightly interested in the story, I didn't care if they blew up the death star thing or just failed and were obliterated. I was rooting for all said parties, except maybe Rey, to die of lightsabre wounds, and I just wanted the clunky thing to be over.

Maybe I am wrong, but I swear some of the Star Wars games had better storylines than these movies they keep making. It looked bland, and had a weak story start to finish. Why did the Star Wars franchise make all the Jedi into such little bitches anyway? I am talking back to the movies 1-3 where they made them out to basically be clowns with lightsabres as they were all hunted down by clones...these same clones and troopers aren't even able to shoot in a straight line. It isn't 1980 anymore, it is just cliche crap and not cute. 0/10 The Space Opera of Fin the Emo Stormtrooper meets emo jedi with emo traitor apprentice.

I want my stormtroopers to evil, heartless bastards. I don't care if they have 100 quadrillion stormtroopers, I want them to all be evil, heartless and mindless drones of the empire. I want my jedi to not all be crybaby bitches.

How much better would it have been if we had a more civil galaxy where Han and Luke and friends were doing well, living good, and a few of the billion of jedis in the galaxy came out to be trained by Luke and etc etc...and then make some kind of interesting war with conflict and plot and twists. No death stars. No stupid jedi turning into sith and joining the empire, no more rehashing the old fucking movies! /rant off

Possibly. I just think her parentage, or at least her backstory is too much of a Chekhov's Gun to not be important.

.....she obviously doesn't know, herself.

 

[Prime Ang]

Sorry you didn't get what you want, but I bet you still pay $$ to see the next two movies.

 

[heavyarms21]

.....she obviously doesn't know, herself.

Yeah but it could also be a case of trauma repressing a memory which could be heightened because of the Force, I'm just throwing out theories , Luke will get to the Bottom of this circa 2017 , Rian Johnson's take should be interesting

 

[BVG]

Sorry you didn't get what you want, but I bet you still pay $$ to see the next two movies.

You do know that I still rate it higher than all the prequels and gave it a solid 7/10 right?

Over all it was a fun ride with great jokes some great moments, and I still like the protagonist because she's hot and she's interesting.

So yeah, of course I'm gonna watch the rest.

 

[Fedorgasm]

So Rian Johnson has the next one. Do we know who's doing the one after that?

No, I didn't see you saying anything else about the movie. Only thing I've seen you say the last 3 pages is how unbearable and how big of a pussy Kylo is and how the whole series is ruined because he's a shit villain.

Overall the movie was a success, and has so many more elements than just the main villain. However, fucking up Kylo and being unrealistic with Finn and Rey was a bit of a let down. But I still came out with the feels...

 

[Big Brown Clown]

This is an amazing review of the movie. They're spot on.

 

[Fedorgasm]

What happens if Mark Hamill dies before the next movie? How would they possibly work that into the story after so much buildup to finding Luke?

So your basically the Kylo Ren of this thread?

 

[Lovestorm]

9/10 from me.

My immediate gripes being Finn going from PTSD robot to comedian far too quickly, and Kylo Ren going from a baddass to emo squash match towards the end.

Pretty much everything else was done well.

You and that negative thought can kindly....
