He looks like a Mexican guy to me. Just IMO.



Besides, Louis CK has one Mexican grandparent. It's a little different than Oscar Isaac, who is ethically Guatemalan.

For as much talk about not being a repeat of ESB, it had a lot of similarities. A Jedi master refuses to teach an eager learner before eventually changing his mind. The cave with the dark side/the hole with the dark side. At-Ats.

I enjoyed it. I think it comes from me accepting that we have to move on from the old star wars. That magic is its own and it is up to Disney to recapture it not sure if they can.




I have no problem with that, but I didn't find anything new or interesting in it. Its like they wanted to get rid of old star wars but replaced it with....?????

Women ARE POWERFUL, AND FUNNY, AND STRONG.

The women are also smarter than all the men.

Disney will be reinforcing this idea in the next star wars trilogy.

Not all. Many of them are indigenous (Aztec and Mayan descendants).

Also,

the reason Yoda wasn't a full-on "force ghost" and even made physical contact with Luke?


Want to know why?


So they could sell that shite in China. That's the ENTIRE reason that was portrayed that way.

How in the frick did Rey get all of the Jedi books that burned in the Temple?

Did anyone else catch that at the end of the movie? She had a case with all the books in them.

She just walked in and took them. There are rational complaints about this movie, but that is not one of them.

If they cared that much about selling it in China, they wouldn't have made a black guy a central character, let alone having an Asian girl kiss him.

In fact, I can't think of any movie where there's been an Asian/Black romance.

Then why Make Luke a central character and give him an arc?
Why have Rey go missing for like 20 minutes at the climax of the movie?

Luke never went inside. Yet another frickin anticlimactic robbery of the viewers enjoyment.

The movie was constantly retconning itself
