don't think history will look back on Episode 7 as favorably as they do now -- at least not Star Wars fans. The plot takes far too much from Episode 4 and other films in the original trilogy, the logic is questionable in places (landing on a planet at light speed) and a lot felt cut out or rushed (sneaking through Starkiller base, Captain Pharma's entire role).



All TFA really needed to be was competent and give us good characters. It succeeded everywhere the prequels failed. I'm expecting a bit more from Episode VIII. It needs to step a bit more out of the shadow of its predecessors than TFA did.

all that matters is the characters, which were unique and interesting. the plot structure was the same, the zero sum game was the same, but the story was new

it was pretty impressive how they balanced it. The next installment needs to be entirely new and take some risks.

jedi, Jurassic world and others have pulled the same shite with bad results (not box office, i'm talking quality) I can understand people who dislike TFA, but to enjoy jedi and not TFA, I don't understand them. To each their own and people like what they like, but it makes no sense to me
