re: Star Wars: TFA -Official Discussion Thread - Spoilers

Anyone know anything about the supreme chancellor? How did he come to power and who is he exactly? Wish they would have explained that

There are rumors that it's Plagueis. Palpatine's mentor who he said he killed.

The scene with Ren and Han was fricking heartbreaking. Wonderful acting all the way around. Rey vs Ren though


I thought it was just different enough for ANH to keep me on my toes. JJ has indeed done it. Fricking amazing. Can't wait to see where Rian Johnson takes the story. I'm so pumped

Loved it, better than what I thought it would be. Good mix of humor and action. I like how they slowly introduced a lot of the older characters in and didn't throw them in too quickly.

Issac was lacking.

My biggest complaint.

Otherwise it was

Only a few minor complaints for me. Mainly just the whole Maz stuff at the Castle. That entire 20 minutes was weak compared to the rest but was still good enough to keep me going. Just dragged slightly. Loved the characters. Dialogue was solid.



Only other part I didn't like was Starkiller base being destroyed. Other than that it was awesome

I agree and thought it was awesome. The scene with Han and Kylo on the bridge was fantastic and JJ symbolizing Kylo's battle between the two sides of the force with light was awesome. Right light behind one shoulder and blue light behind the other was obviously a subtle way of doing the angel and devil thing.

I knew when Han went out onto the bridge there was a good chance he didn't walk off because of Harrison Ford's reluctance to play the character but up until the sunlight went out I didn't know what was going to happen.

But I don't understand why some are complaining it was similar to New Hope. Yea there are similarities but the only plot point that is the same is that they blow up the super sized Death Star at the end. It was the first movie so to connect to fans they are gonna try and hark back to the original

I don't mind spoilers and shite and i read the plot and it sounds exactly like a new hope. based on what people have been saying tho it sounds like it is legit.

I don't expect to get bogged down in minutia but I wouldn't mind if the movie had taken its time more on developing stuff. So many questions that could have been answered and instead, we get a silly scene with dumb looking tentacle monsters. I felt like the movie was a little ADD

Reading that quote of myself reminds me that I write like an idiot when simultaneously trying to watch TV
