This movie takes place over 45 years after Windu's death. That seems like a long time to try and tie Finn in with him, especially considering he can't be a direct descendent without de-railing Windu's character by having him breaking the rules of the Order.

Can't see it.

I was thinking. Not allowing Jedi's to procreate is silly. If the force is hereditary, then you are basically telling everyone in the Order to kill off the force. In other words, there is just no way that the order can exist for thousands of years if every time a force sensitive person becomes a Jedi, they have to not have children.
You would think in this universe there would be a lot more dark Jedi and bad force users, since all the good force users have to end their line of force sensitive genetics.

Ergo, all we know about the order came from the prequels and it's likely that many of those things will be tweaked. I doubt we here the word "midiclorians" again for one.

I thought it was just "attachment" that was forbidden? I took it to mean they can go out and slam as many chicks around the galaxy as theyd' like, just don't end up falling in love. It's from AOTC, and it's been a while since I've seen that horrible film, so I could be wrong.

Lol, that's even worse.
See Lucas really wrote himself into the corner with the prequels. Glad he isn't behind these.

If you take offense to a white woman having sex or implied relations with a black man, then you are racist. I'm sorry guys, it's true.

You think it's possible that you're just a squinty little butthole?

Never mind. Rhetorical question.

No one's taking offense. It's just an apprehensive attitude toward the same kind of preachy bullshite that helped to make the prequels so crappy.

And now they're building 2 theme parks. Way to squeeze every drop of life out of it, Disney.

Possibly, but both of you took obvious offense to seeing a Black man and a white women together and called it political BS.

How are you getting preachy bullshite from these short clips?

I mean it's 2015, the uproar of a white woman and a black man will only exist in the mond of someone who is not comfortable with other races. It's okay, it's your personal choice and maybe you don't see it that way. Maybe your ex left you for BBC, IDK. Just to attack this entire movie based on maybe 10 pictures and two minutes of previews is insane.

This was long ago, so it's still fair game.

Does Luke look like Zach Galifianakis to anyone else in that pic?

Since you've already admitted that it's your own perception of being preached to, maybe you just stop looking to be offended by movies before you even see them.

I didn't leave any of the prequels thinking that they were shoving some kind of social agenda down my throat, but then I don't look for that kind of thing in movies.

Normally I'd be against this but the actress is very thick and meaty so it makes it okay. If they put Wonder Woman in the suit I'd cry foul.
