Good, not great.

I liked it, but it left me wanting a little more.

>>78268978
I enjoyed it for what it was: a bridge and set up movie. The real meat of this series is gonna come in the next two movies and that's where it's gonna make or break this new Trilogy.

>>78268978
Sixth for THIS.

>>78268968
>At least Jacen had a reason to go to the dark side being in a years long war and losing family

Kylo will also have his reasons, I just hope they are good. But we will have to wait until Episode VIII and I'm excited about Rian Johnson being the one to handle Kylo's backstory.

>>78269000
That's good, because we've got about five years of non-stop Star Wars on the horizon.

Why is Snoke reminding me of Thanos. I hope they do him good.

I still hate Phasma's design even after watching the movie but she has a sexy voice.

>>78268978
This

Also KOTOR.

Star Killer's functionality was fucking Rakata Technology... and the official canon map has Rakata Prime on it as canon. Fucking KOTOR technology is what made SK work.

Wait, people dislike the film? (Just rejoining the thread after a week blackout)

There are things I didn't like, sure. The ending was balls. Can't cocktease people like that knowing there's a 2 year wait. Was filmed shitty, and the location was ass.

And I didn't like that the plot was just ANH all over again.

And Maz Kanata's castle was a huge disappointment, felt like a last ditch attempt to say "look at our practical effects" despite Jakku already executing them perfectly.

But asides from that, I'm just in a state of bliss right now, I loved the movie.

So next December we have rouge one. So any further Star Wars movies/shows will be in the official canon correct?

>>78269041
Yeah the Starkiller base was giving me serious Star Forge throwbacks

>>78269041

Kotor's not canon. The most you'll get is Disney's washed up version of KOTOR lore.

>>78269035
I have to agree, she sounded really nice. Intimidating in how calm she is.

>>78269051
I thought Rogue One is in the summer?

And yes, all future movies are canon, along with the books, comics, and cartoons, unless they're explicitly non-canon. Generally, if it has the Lucasfilm Story Groups approval, and it isn't some parody like the Lego spin offs, then chances are it is canon.

>>78268999
Thanks

>>78269019
>I'm excited about Rian Johnson being the one to handle Kylo's backstory.
Legitimately curious why.

>>78269041

I just wish Snoke had ended up being a member of the "true Sith" species, ready to return to the Galaxy after those pretenders to the throne fucked it all up.

>>78269085
Current launch date is Dec. 16 of next year.

>>78269085
>I thought Rogue One is in the summer?
It's a year from now, not in the summer.

First for VIII "Luke finally rebuilds the Jedi Order because Rey shows up and the apprentices are 6 stronk womyn and 1 goofy comic relief male"

>>78269051
The only non-canon Star Wars media still in production is The Old Republic

Anybody love the pottery with Hux and Tarkin?

>Vader and Tarkin are complete bros and work together to please Sheev
>Kylo and Hux are competing against each other for Snoke's attention and seem to hate each other

>>78269125
As long as some of them are qt alien girls I'm fine with that.

>>78269043
>Can't cocktease people like that knowing there's a 2 year wait.
Honest question here.
With no footage of Luke except the hand on R2, and everyone wondering where he was, how did everyone not expect TFA to end on the cliffhanger of them finding him? The way it ended is exactly how I expected it to.

>>78269041
>Main character in KoTOR is Reven
>Main characters in 7 are Rey and Ren
>Reven has a cool mask
>Ren has a cool mask
>KoTOR's plot is about assembling a star map
>7's plot is about assembling a star map
>Reven was memory wiped
>It's implied Rey might have been memory wiped
Just how far will they go with the KoTOR connection going forward?

remember what happened last time?!

Where's your 'Chosen One' prophecy now, fags?

Was anyone else disappointed that Luke's New Jedi Order was done and killed off before the movie began and off screen? I thought we were gonna get at least some more new Jedi now that the empire was all but gone before the first order showed up.

>>78268978
>>78269043
It was literally a remake of A New Hope, except for that it was decent.

>>78269181
Bend over, and I'll show ya.

>>78269103
I think he's an awesome director who can make darker character-focused stories. Abrams introduced a great new villain and Johnson could flesh him out and make him even better.

>>78268930
>Pretty sure he's talking about Yuuzhan Vong

My memory is fuzzy as fuck. I guess is too much since I read that-

>>78269043
I hate how simultaneously so much happened between 6 and 7 but at the same time nothing really did

>there's an empire again
>the only ones fighting are scrappy misfit reb- resistance
>Luke rebuilt the Jed- oh wait no they're all dead, he's hiding
>Han grew as a- no he's just a space junker/smuggler

It's just kind of boring.

>>78269169
>tfw the new movies keep ripping off the EU more and more, to the point we get a Thrawn analogue that's actually a strong independent woman to make up for the embarrasment that was Phasma

Post predictions for the next episodes
The Knights of Ren aren't actually a thing. They were fabricated by Snoke specifically to appeal to Ben as a third option and indoctinate him. They were then 'slaughtered' to condition Ben to the dark side.

>>78269183
It's frustrating as fuck, the OT heroes apparently just jerked off for 30 years.

The movie and new canon would have been saved if Rey found Luke in a hidden temple while a dozen or two dozen new jedi watched from the shadows.

>>78269158

one of my friends thought Ren was Revan when he first saw the trailer and after he realized it wasn't, he thought they were just trying to copy things in order to pander to fanboys.

He's probably right. The movie can only rip off other Star Wars products and filling the rest with generic genre tropes.

fuck this movie hard;

Will the other Jedi apprentices that appear in the flashback make into the next movies as Kylo ren special squad?

>>78269043
>felt like a last ditch attempt to say "look at our practical effects" despite Jakku already executing them perfectly.
Felt like what George has always said he wanted the cantina in ANH to look like to me. Personally I loved the shit out of the practical effects. At first I was a little unsettled because it looked different than how Star Wars has looked, but when I realized that was because filming tech has come miles since what George used to film the OT, and JJ wasn't making a cartoon with people walking around in it, it all made sense and a wave of comfy washed over me. There was an actual moment when I realized the stormtroopers were actual people with actual practical suits on, and not guys in mop cap suits that had their suits painted on, and the realization left me with a wonderful feeling.

I'm not sure that anyone has noticed this extra level of poetry.

Finn's call number is FN-2187

2187 is the prisoner block that Leia was locked in on the Death Star

Bravo JJ

>>78269152
I expected him to show up towards the end, everyone did. But one shot, and then an awkward silence and then end? Fuck that, it was shitty. I think it's actually the worst ending of any star wars movie by far.

Think about it, compare it to all the others.

>Qui-Gon Funeral, Sheev foreshadowing, Fun celebration (Ok this one is sorta lame too)
>Sheev looking over the Clone Army, Anakin and Padme marry on Naboo (Beautiful imagery for a somewhat meh movie)
>Vader born, Death Star construction, Padme's Funeral, the Twins are taken to their homes, Binary Sunset
>Yavin IV Celebration, the classic
>Bittersweet ending overlooking the beautiful Galaxy
>Galaxy Celebrating the Death Star II's destruction

And then you get;

>Rey shows up on a weird seemingly inhospitable island and awkwardly stares at Luke in silence for 20 seconds while shaking as she offers him a lightsaber

Once the "omg Luke" factor is gone, the ending will be meaningless. Imagine watching it in 10 years. The ending is just simply lame. No feel good, no bittersweet, no sad, no nothing, just... Luke. And like I said, once the next movies are out, the ending wont even have any impact at all upon rewatching it.

TFA, while a spectacular movie, had the lamest fucking ending imaginable.

>>78269203
shame Phasma jobbed so hard I think even Worf felt a sudden pain in his heart a multiverse away.

>>78269148
Yes. That was a nice relationship and it even contributed to Kylo's character that everyone in the movie hates.

>>78269152
>With no footage of Luke except the hand on R2, and everyone wondering where he was, how did everyone not expect TFA to end on the cliffhanger of them finding him? The way it ended is exactly how I expected it to.

The only thing about the reveal that surprised me is that they didn't end the movie with a shot of Luke's face. They had a close up his face, then switched to this shaky circling shot of them on the island with Luke's back to us.

It should have been reversed. We should have seen Rey confronting some mysterious figure, only for them to turn around and reveal they're Luke.

THEN cue end credits.

>>78269228
all the jedi are ded anon, except luke and rey skywalker

>>78269181
The Sith are gone, ya dingaling.

>>78269184
Are you trying to say that ANH is not a great movie?

>>78269183

The Jedi were killed off in A New Hope, so it was must they be killed off here because neckbeards complained about too many lightsabers in the prequels.

>>78269197
Sweet.

>>78269205
-Rey is related to either Luke or Kylo
-Snoke is the Emperor reborn
-More of the OT cast is killed off one by one.
-Another pointless musical interlude

Really grasping at straws on that one.

>>78269232
Nice.

>>78269254
Yeah, that sounds like something I might have done if I were retarded. Good thing I'm just stupid.

Snoke was some awful hobbit tier CGI. How was that approved

>>78269201
Yeah, they kinda half assed the progression of the Galaxy to make it more of a 4th OT movie than the 1st of a new trilogy.

Say what you will about them, but the Galaxy during the prequels felt different, and we saw it change and degenerate into what we have in the OT.

And now everything feels like it hit a standstill.

>>78269201
I didn't really get the political map.

The new republic helps the resistence, but not publicly...so that means First order is some kind of a legitimate goverment that rules certain of the galaxy and thats why the new republic doesn't confront them directly...but then FO openly shoots fire to new republic?

What was the point of being "neutral" if they knew FO could fuck them any moment?

>>78269233
>Once the "omg Luke" factor is gone, the ending will be meaningless. Imagine watching it in 10 years. The ending is just simply lame. No feel good, no bittersweet, no sad, no nothing, just... Luke.

It's more like Empire Strikes Back. Rey has replaced Han- just like Lando replaced him. Everybody says their goodbyes and Rey goes to meet Luke, whom she encounters in a remote and sweeping vista.

Also, in the first shot of Luke you have since the end of return of the Jedi, we see that he's pretty much become Old Ben Kenobi, which brings things full circle.

>>78269254
but that's dumb though, Luke should have trained fucking SOMEONE.

>tfw they could show Mandalore the Bearded, Corran, Kam, Tioone, and the best of the NJO as an easter egg in VIII
>but deep down you know it'll never happen

>>78269270
>-Rey is related to either Luke or Kylo
If Rey turns out to be Luke's daughter, that'll make Ben her cousin.

>>78269282
Hell, bring in fucking Kyle Katarn from the EU ffs. Hell he even did in Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy.

I'm really concerned that the sequel trilogy is just going to be a rehash of the original trilogy. They are definitely going that path with Kylo Ren being Darth Vader 2.0. and Snoke being Sheev 2.0. - I can already see a Kylo redemption arc where he overthrows his master. I hope they do something different, but I'm concerned.

>>78269290
...and now I feel dumb. Guess I'm retard after all.

Pardon me while I punish myself by prolonged exposure to Jar Jar.

>>78269277
I think the New Republic is supposed to be pacifistic while funding the Resistance as a proxy army to keep the peace and political face.

The First Order is just the Imperial Remnant in the Outer Rim.

While the Cold War idea is neat, I much rather prefer the aggressive, confident New Republic of the old EU.

>>78269272
>Say what you will about them, but the Galaxy during the prequels felt different, and we saw it change and degenerate into what we have in the OT.

The prequels still feel too removed from the OT. We saw changes and degeneration, but it didn't feel like we were going

At least not until I saw the Tantive IV and that classic interior.

That's what the prequels should have looked like in Epsiode 1.

Some deleted scenes may have been found, they have a lot more flashbacks of Luke and Kylo. I hope they make some DVD bonus section

Luke's disciples weren't Jedi yet and for the flashback it looks like they were working with Kylo.

To me it look like they gangbanged Luke

>>78269313
That's who I meant by Mandalore the bearded

I think they're just giving Finn his story

>yfw Luke says in the next movie "yes, I am your father"

>>78269317
As long as they don't build ANOTHER Death Star/Star Killer. It's like this is the third time they did it and they still got blown the fuck up.

Guys, I loved the movie, I really did, but uhh... Can we just talk about the fact that;

The soundtrack wasnt that great? I think it may be the worst soundtrack of all the movies. NOTHING of the new tracks stood out to me, except maybe (what i think is) Rey's theme. I would leave Star Wars movies with the music ingrained in my head after the first viewing, but this is the first time I can barely remember any of it. None of it stood out at all, it was all so soft.

>>78269183
More than disappointed. Unless it turns out he managed to fully train some Jedi and they were offworld when the Knights of Ren attacked, I'm pretty pissed that they had Luke's efforts to rebuild the Order be undone so swiftly.

>>78269272

If you watch each prequel carefully, you'll notice there's distinct shifts in design. Like things feel like they become grittier each episode as the Clone War gets closer/rages on.

>>78269313

Isn't Finn just a Kyle Katarn rip off?

>>78269353
And I guess the designer of the Starkiller was an apprentice of the Death Star chief design

>>78269351
But then who mother?

Leia? Mara? Maz?

Alternate ending:
Rey's mother is Chewbacca

>>78269351
That could easily happen. And again basically copy V in that matter.

Phasma was a perfect allusion to Boba Fett.

She was a in some cool armor and completely jobbed.

>>78269358
Yeah I agree, the OST was weak as fuck. John Williams must not be up to it anymore or barely had a hand in it. All of the prequels had new iconic tracks and themes but this barely anything

TPM -> Duel of the Fates
AoTC -> Across the Stars (how that shitty movie had such good music is beyond me)
RoTS -> Battle of the Heroes

>>78269339
Maz not force sensitive fags BTFO

>>78269389
Mrs Skywalker was killed on the assault on the new jedi academy. Betting she was some rebel pilot as well

>>78269232
There was even much better self-referencing "poetry" (foreshadowing actually) in the movie. Poe literally said "as long as there's light, there's hope". When Han faces his son, Kylo's face has red light on the left and blue light on the right, produced by the sun that was being absorbed. Then the blue light disappeared and by the time when Kylo's face wasn't bluish anymore, he killed Han. The light in him disappeared, just like the light of the sun.

JJ is a pretty good director. That scene was superb and also an example for "poetry" done right.

>>78269339
>>https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWars/comments/3xd9zo/leaked_scene_list_points_to_what_was_cutchanged/


It looks like from these that Maz was a force user. Not a Jedi, but still a Force user.

I can maybe see why they dropped the idea. Might have been too confusing to explain to casual audiences, and the film didn't waste much time with explaining shit.

Plus, she was already a little Yoda-y.

>>78269407
Imagine if they recanonized Mara Jade just to kill her off in a flashback or exposition

>>78269413

Also, when Fin and Rey enter the same structure, there's a beam of light that comes in behind them and illuminates Han and Kylo on the walkway.

Pottery.

>>78269430
The tears would be delicious.

>>78269358
I agree, there were now stand out tracks by John this time. If you gotta give the prequels credit, is that each one had at least one fucking great song (Duel of the Fates, Episode II love Theme, Battle of Heroes). In VII nothing really stands out. I guess John is losing his luster or something.

>>78269449

Sounds like the music accurately reflected the nature of the film

>tfw Wedge will probably be killed off during the 30 year gap for some new OC mary sue because Denis Lawson wouldn't come back

I feel weird for saying this, but I was really unimpressed with 'Across the Stars' and 'Battle of Heroes'. I don't hate them; I just find them really underwhelming.

Too bad when they were talking about the Star Killer one of them didn't go "Wait, Star Killer? Wasn't that that guy who Vader trained and then became are inspiration or something?" as a way to bring him into the canon. As silly as that would sound.

>>78269482
Only Rey's theme is worth posting

>>78269485
Damn, I dont wanna say an opinion can be wrong, but...

>>78269485
Nothing wrong with opinions Anon, I think some of it could be that they're saddled with the shitty stories.

>>78269485
I dunno how they can be called underwhelming. Not to your taste maybe, but underwhelming is far from what they are. The blaring reprise of the love theme before Anakin and Padme go into the execution arena was really really powerful.

>>78269233
Anon, I won't speak to the quality of the ending. That's not what I asked about. I don't think as much a problem as you do but I would argue that's because I expected it.
Clearly something happened that was so traumatic to him he exiled himself and abandoned the responsibility that had been placed on him by Yoda. He wasn't going to feel something in the Force, and come out of hiding to be a deus ex machina. He was always going to need to be saught out and found, and the enabling of the protagonists to be able to do this was clearly going to be the plot of TFA. Personally, I got a little anxious while watching because I was almost expecting it to end a la Empire with Rey and Chewie flying off to go find Luke while Leia watches which I think would be a better ending more in line with the precedent of the other saga films like you described. There is no way they weren't going to show Luke though. With the entire plot being about seeking the means to find him, and them acquiring those means, there needed to be a payoff for their efforts. I could see them saving that for VIII, but can you imagine how much we'd be bitching if Luke never showed up? It kind of was a no win scenario in the sense that you either needed to give the fans what they want, or remain consistent with precedent. TFA is clearly a movie about giving fans what they want though, so we know which they chose.
What I'm going to be curious to see is if VIII picks up right there, and includes Rey trying to draw Luke out of his exile, as well as Snoke finishing Ben's training, or if it's going to cut forward in time and have Rey be trained in the Force, and Ben upgraded, and potentially recostumed since he left his helmet behind.
Also, will Finn go full android? Kind of looked like Ben may have rekt his back.

>>78269405
I know AoTC get's a lot of shit (and for good reason for those naboo/romance scenes), but that Yoda/Doku battle was awesome as fuck. And that first Clone War battle.

>>78269485
Shit taste desu senpai

Does Before the Awakening have an audiobook?

Did Han/Leia name their son after Obi-Wan? If so, that's kinda' cute.

>>78269520
>that Yoda/Doku battle was awesome as fuck
That was really silly and kind of pointless. If you must have Yoda fight someone it should be Palpatine, everything else feels superfluous.

5 > 4 > 6 > 7 >>> 3 > 2 = 1

Agree/disagree?

>Finn's story in Before the Awakening will be all about his adventures in sanitation
How exciting!

>>78269558
5 > 4 > 7 > 6 > 3 > 1 >>>> 2

>>78269558
Disagree. I think VII is better than VI, otherwise it's correct though.

>>78269495
shut the fuck up

I feel like I'd enjoy the movie much more if Rey was played by Christie and what's-her-face was the glorified shiny background prop instead.

It wasn't bad but it could've been better, I liked Finn and Maz Kanata much more than I've expected, Poe is decent if a bit generic, Hux is pretty amazing and I hope be ends up trying to stage his own coup at some point.

What makes Empire Strikes Back so good?

I dunno. I guess I'm making the mistake of comparing them to 'Duel of the Fates'. I keep expecting something more bombastic (though in the case of AtS, it would be the fact that it came from my least favorite of the series)

>>78269558
4 > 5 > 6 > 7.
Prequels not even worth mentioning.

>>78269583
>>78269584
Wow, horrible taste. There isn't a single scene in TFA that comes even close to that final duel between Luke and Vader.

>>78269520
I dont care what anybody says, everything with Obi-Wan, Jango, and the Arena, is great.

>>78269558
Completely disagree mate.

5 = 4 > 3 = 7 > 6 > 1 > 2

5 and 4 dont need an explanation. 7 is a great Star Wars movie, but loses points for it's rehashed plot that leaves us, not really anywhere new. 3 is a fantastic climactic experience. 6 is good, but loses it in the middle, and the ending is SLIGHTLY neutered by the fact that it is no longer the true ending.

Then 1 > 2 because I love Maul/Podracing more than the stuff in AotC (although theres many things in 2 that I still like. I dont dislike any of the movies)

>>78269558
5 > 3 = 7 > 6 > 1 > 2 = 4

>Jedi gone
>New Republic gone
Then what was the fucking point?

Went to see my parents the other day and they asked if there was anything I fancied for Christmas, figured I'd ask for the visual dictionary and cross-section books just for nostalgia's sake (I had the OT ones as a kid), anything similar that's worth getting hold of?

I enjoyed the final duel in TFA more than the duel in ROTJ.

it was far more brutal and well choreographed, but wasn't too flashy like in the prequels.

different strokes for different folks

>>78269405
>>78269449
The soundtrack was a bit underwhelming, mostly because there was only one leitmotif. I really like "torn apart" though. It fits Kylo's cruelty and inner conflict. Jedi steps is also pretty good.

>>78269613
The only parts of RotC I absolutely hated were the romance/Naboo scenes. Lucus can't write romance and god knows Hayden can't fucking act good in those parts.

>>78269650
>It's going up the ass

I don't know why that popped into my head

>Episode 7 pretty much follows a good majority of the post Episode 6 EU
>Episode 7 essentially did what Episode 3 does to the Clone Wars EU stuff where only a few things are retconned while the rest works fine with the movie
So why the fuck did they retcon the EU then? It was a licensing thing wasn't it? Disney didn't want to buy the fuck loads of books and whatnot from the old EU so they just made it non canon. I'm sure there was some push in Lucasfilm to try out a story group because they thought it would be fun too, but I bet the money reasons came first and afterwards Pablo/Chee/etc were like 'fuck, I guess we need to make an official canon now'.

Don't get me wrong, I'm liking a lot of the new canon, I just really don't see a point in it existing though when their reasoning for retconning ALL of it was 'Episode 7 won't work with it' when Episode 7 only contradicts SOME of it.

>>78269611
Mate, Han's death scene is absolutely amazing. And the lightsaber battle is just as great as the one in VI, minus the great score.

>>78269644
The Republic isn't gone, the capital planet and fleet were destroyed, but the Republic territory still exist. The Republic is just without leadership or an army right now. That's where the resistance comes in.

>>78269558
6>5>4>7>1>3>2

>>78269682
My only real issue is the title. "The Resistance" feels more like, ironically, a rebel organization against an established power.

>>78269677
The contradictions would cause more trouble than it's worth. A clean slate is easier to work with. See TCW when it was wrecking into the EU and people got mad every time it did.

Probably not. The prequel trilogy stories pulled enough Anakins to last a lifetime.

I really thought Rey was going to cut off Kylo's hand though.

I think the only reason they've kept the mystery of her origins a mystery is because she's not related to anyone we have any connection to. Their relevancy won't come up until later. At least that's the only reason I can think ofwhy theyu should do that. Because if it's just "She's Han/Luke's kid" then all the little cut aways from letting us know are just for the sake of mystery and, as such, lazy story telling.

>>78269558

That sounds about right to me.

>>78269290
How would that work out? Rey's being abandoned on Jakku, I mean. Maybe she was kidnapped as a baby? Maybe Luke left her a la Kenobi theory of dumping kids on a desert planet to protect her from being found? Clearly her connection to the force, piloting skills, and mechanical skills scream that she is a Skywalker, but her being left on Jakku in the manner she was would kind of be a fuck up on whomever's part left her there unless there was a Kenobi in the shadows keeping an eye on her that we don't know about. Maybe Max von Sydow's character?

>>78269783
It's not bait. Go back and watch A New Hope and try to tell me that Luke isn't whiny as shit. Anakin needs no explanation.

>>78269836
Hux will redeem himself by killing Snoke and taking over the First Order after realizing problems of both Republic and the Empire come from the presence of force users. It's obvious.

Jango is pretty much the only time they did the badass normal villain right. Unlike Boba or Phasma you actually get to see that he is indeed a badass a bunch of times.

The movie was pretty good though I'm more excited for Rogue One and them doing something more original in Episode VIII now that they've got every rehash they can think of out of the way.

But what in the fuck was this motherfucker that pops up out of the sand at the end of the introduction? Seriously that shit gave me flashbacks to weirdly specific nightmares I had as a kid.

Also it seems like it talks to BB-8 in something more sophisticated than animal noises. Was it sentient? Was it totally chill with just watching a whole village of people being slaughtered?

Well acted, yes. Glasses were a bit much, though. And the fact that she was hundreds of years old, knowledgeable in the force, and a tiny creature made her an obvious Yoda expy.

Is it me or is Snoke incredibly underwhelming?

Just about everything about him sucks.

>>78269358
Biggest flaw of the movie for me. It was very bland and uninspired IMO. Perhaps I was too focused on what was happening to really listen to it, but there were so many moments I was expecting Jedi themes, or nods to the Imperial March that never came and left me wishing they had. Even TPM have Duel of the Fates, but there was nothing memorable about what we got that I can remember. Maybe John is losing it?

I think this is what happened. Max von Kenobi knew where Luke was. So they must have had contact. He must be watching over Rey who has force amnesia like Revan did.

>>78269977
>Just about everything about him sucks
Yeah, as you can tell from his face, he had a little accident with his vaccum cleaner.

>>78269945
>Can you imagine how the Empire would've been like if Hux had ruled over it and not Sheev?

It wouldn't have gotten as far as it ever did. Hux is running what remains of the institutions that Palpatine created pretty much from nothing. Without Palpatine's manipulation and force ex machina, there would be no Imperial fleet.

>>78269977
We don't know anything about him yet.

Where was Sarco?

Also, getting a closer look at the Knights of Ren in the big screen was really neat. Anybody's gotten a HD pic?

But none of them are terrible, or bad. It's all fairly close. Honestly all but one of the ">" are a formality. Only episode one deserves any kind of separation, and even then it's the difference between 7.5/10 and 7/10. I like all the movies for their own reasons, sue me.

No, he was pretty lame. The Pale Orc from the Hobbit trying to act like Palpatine.

Looks that way. There's more hints for that than for being Kylo's sibling, of which there were very few, if anything specific at all.

Glasses were fine if they had just been a "single" zoom, not like, 500 zoom settings.

Yeah she is Yoda 2.0, but that is okay. Yoda just fit the heroic cycle needs, as did she.

It's actually a very important plot/character point that he is NOT the new Darth Vader.

This movie was basically Disney/JJ going/Everyone else saying, "See! We can still make a classic Star Wars movie! Will you get off our backs already?" Hopefully now that they've proven the point, they can explore the setting's potential a bit more.

What were your theater reactions like?

I heard excited cheering for "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away" and the Star Wars logo. There was some concern over "Luke Skywalker has vanished" - excitement for the Millennium Falcon, applause for Han and Chewie, and then after that the audience just fell dead. No applause at the end, just dead silence for the latter half of the movie - and in fact I saw people walk out of the theater before the credits.

They can also be done via movies. Don't worry. Your Mary Saga will always be the special butterfly compared to all the others, but movies allow a completely valid method of storytelling that may be the best fit for certain stories. As for their becoming a non event? In what sense? Pop culture? So you're saying I won't need to wait in line after buying a ticket to see a new movie on opening day? Thank fucking Christ. So long as I'm enjoying them, I really wouldn't give a fuck. Realistically though, only a goober really thinks Disney isn't going to do anything to devalue their IP. They're in the money making business, and diminishing an IP's luster isn't good for making money.

Are short names the secret of success of Star Wars?

How many alien species from any of the past Star Wars movies were in this one? I only noticed Ackbar and this nigga

A force user letting go and overcoming fear is a powerful thing. Throughout the series from Obi-wan, Luke, Kanan, Ezra and even Anakin, we see this. Rey did the same thing when Kylo had her cornered and in a saber lock. Aggression and pain will never be as powerful in the end.

>>78270529
Everyone else got a huge boner over him right? And everyone jizzed themselves when Kylo took of his helmet, right? It wasn't just me? Right?

>>78270779

It's almost like they're purposely avoiding many things.

Were there even any twileks?

>>78270779
There was an Ithorian in Maz's castle, that's about it. Really disappointed with the lack of classic aliens, not even a fucking Rodian ffs

>>78270779
The constable is from Embo's species. And Crimson Corsair apparently wears armor from Grievous' culture

>>78270804
Overrated desu

>>78270792
I laughed when Kylo took off his helmet. Ren looks like he was made to be bullied

>>78270529

Yeah I was so interested in him. Besides his sweet design, looks like he was escorting some old alien with a missing leg/limp. And they were just chillin in a bar shooting shit while they got gas or whatever.

More of this stuff please.

>>78270809
I'm pretty sure that's a separate species similar to lthorian, so not even that counts.
It's sad. They played it way to safe with this movie.

>>78270839
According to the visual dictionary he was an Ithorian.

>>78268778
And in the EU, when Chewie died, he left home, got drunk, and went on a smuggling adventure in Yuuzhan Vong occupied territory.

So TFA isn't the first thing to make Han undergo character reversion.

>>78270835
Right!? At first anyways. But then when the movie went on I was like, this guy is actually super scary. Scary nerd with evil powers.

>no iconic aliens
>no iconic locations
>complete rehash of A New Hope

Is anyone able to do a story time with the visual dictionary and the cross sections for this movie?

>>78270854
yeah I mean his best friend died, you see some dark times after that.

>>78270839
>>78270849
Nah it says he's an Ottegan, which are similar. He's part of an Ithorian religious sect though.

>Appearing on the red carpet in London before heading back to the Big Apple, the 62-year-old filmmaker also confirmed the entire Star Wars: The Force Awakens cast will be returning for Episode VIII.

>>78270601


It could be worse

Can you say: Sarco Planc???

>>78270849
Are you talking about this guy? He is not a lthorian. They just have similar anatomy. Even says so right by his face.

>>78270865
>oh look all Desert planet\
>oh look foresty planet
>oh look snowy planet
>oh look Scotland

>>78270792

I got very excited to think about him hooking up with Ray.
Then I remembered they're cousins. Dammit Star Wars! Why much you ruin all my ships with your incest ways.

>>78270867
That's not something that will happen with the books, I don't think. It isn't like digital comics.

>>78270835
Driver is such a fucking great actor though. His performance really stands out.

>>78270458
My theater is largely civilized, the only reactions were laughter at things like BB8 giving a thumbs up.

Except for one asshole who just kept giggling at random scenes for no reason.

A couple of people attempted to clap at the credits but it quickly died out.

>>78270809
A Rodian would have been neat, but you never seen them reuse aliens in the OT outside of a Rodian in Jabba's Palace. Would have been boring if they did it then and same for now. Probably wouldn't have many classic aliens in the first place.

>>78270835
I think that's the point. I think he's a pretty meek guy but turned to the dark side so he could become stronger.

>>78270884


WHERE IS MY SARCO PLANC

WHERE IS MY VIBROSTAFF FIGHT SEQUENCE

>>78270854

True, but I guess what they're going with here is that Han was never a very good dad. I prefer the Galaxy's Greatest Dad Han who doesn't revert until the galaxy is being genocided and his best friend and companion dies, but then bounces back after a little while.

>>78270888

>They couldn't even be bothered to use a real Ithorian

>>78270915
They've reused Jawas too, also in Jabba's palace.

>>78270779
Ithorian + Twilek @ Maz
Rodian in b/g on Jakku
Pancakes as you saw there
I swear I saw some Chadra-Fan

Oh and a droid with Highsinger's voice, and similar design.


I'm sure there were others.

>>78270458
Guy next to me muttered GODDAMNIT JACEN SOLO YOUR EVIL IN THIS TOO STOP BEING EVIL IN THINGS WAIT THAT AIN'T JACEN SOLO WHAT IS IT WITH SOLOS

I'm sure he was trying to make some kind of epik maymay.

>>78270835

He looks like that kid who joined ISIS

Anyone else hoping for Zuckuss and 4LOM in part VIII or IX? I'd like to see the entire bounty hunter squad but since Bossk and Dengar were in CW already I'd imagine they'll be dead by TFA and it's hard to imagine old man Boba not being retired.

>>78270988
>and it's hard to imagine old man Boba not being retired.
It's hard to imagine him anything other than dead, because that's his status currently in the new canon.

>>78270988
Boba is dead. I want to see Bossk and IG-88 being bad motherfuckers.

>>78270458
I had the average-fan fans. They (me included because I'm not above these things when everyone is doing it and I find it FUN) clapped during everything that was old that showed up. Falcon, Han, Darth Helmet, ect. Only one women was super annoying, who of course had to sit next to me, but I won't fault her too bad cause she seemed like a bigger fan than anyone else, but she cheered and swore at the screen a lot. When Ray Jedi Mind tricked the Trooper she yelled out BYE FALISSA. I don't know what that was referance to, but the rest of the theater cracked up? Then she yelled out YOU MOTHER FUCKER FUCK! At Kylo when he did the thing. Her boyfriend next to her said, babe, SHH! There are kids in here.

Other than that, a few people cheered out for Akbar, everyone laughed at all the right moments. They laughed at anything BB8 did. Group of girls behind me couldn't help go "awww" whenever he did anything super cute, like bumping into R2D2. I did too. Fucking cute robots...

>>78270958
I swear to god I was the only one who called him The Pancake Kid

There's a line in TFA that makes me think I know what series they'll do after rebels.
The lines about Kylo being trained by Luke, killing the other Jedi, new Jedi order, ect. I think it'll be Luke finding Ahsoka, Kanan, and Ezra and starting the new Jedi Academy pre episode 7. Eventually Not-Jacen shows up and at the end kills everyone.

>>78270988
Zuckuss is probably dead if the Gand lifespans are canon still. I hope we see them in Rebels though. IG-88 as well.

>>78270988
Zuckuss would be too old too. The only ones I can see still around are IG-88 and 4-LOM.

>>78271012
Oh wait, my bad, indeed. I got confused and thought he was brought back in the new canon as well for some reason.

Forgot about IG-88 too.

>>78270347
HHHHHHHHGGGG. Someone open up my word doc!

>>78271022
>Jedi Academy is rekt, no Jedi during VII

that's so goddamn frustrating, it's almost comic "status quo is god" level of bullshit

>>78270988

What are the chances of us seeing Cad Bane?

I loved that as far as I can tell, Kylo Ren pretty much just wore the mask because he thought it was cool. To me, it seemed like he wasn't a Sith, he was a Sith fanboy. Remember all the arguing about whether his light saber was shitty or not? It makes perfect sense if you imagine him as a pimply, wannabe goth kid: he doesn't care that it's crap, he just thinks it looks awesome. And to his credit, he's right, it looks pretty rad.

>>78269558

I'd say

6 > 5 = 4 >= 7 >>>>> 3 > 2

and pretend 1 didn't happen

>>78271050
The only thing left of him is his armor, which the Sarlaac regurgitated, which is now being passed around Tatooine's scum.

>>78271022

would have made things a lot easier if there had been more animated stuff of Legends shit before they called it quits. I would have watched a Solo Twins cartoon.

>>78271063
It's the same story we've seen already. It's a New Hope with a fresh coat of paint on it.

>>78271036
>>78271033
If we go by EU lifespans, Bossk should be still alive.

I think we might see the entire crew in Rogue One, though. Maybe some of the CW ones, even, I'd imagine Cad or Embo were active for a while afterwards and there was that scrapped arc with Cad and Boba in CW, wasn't there?

Actually I just want a single bounty hunter spinoff. Their stories were one of the few parts of the EU I liked, apart from Fett wankery.

What was your favourite scene in TFA?

>>78271066
He dead during the OT nigga
Crippled and old at best

>>78270458
Too much clapping but I literally signed up for that when I decided to do the marathon

The visual dictionary says Snap Wexley (One of the the Resistance pilots during the Starkiller assault) is from Akiva and the son of a "Y-Wing pilot who flew at the Battle of Endor"

What? I thought Temmin was Nora's only son? Then again Aftermath was so shit that I don't remember if she mentioned another kid or not.

>>78271118
Seeing how the new movie is just fanservice, they'll bring Boba back. No question about it.

>>78271073

Who wants to see this character? I just don't get it.

>>78271135
There was a 30 year gap between Aftermath and TFA. She could have had another son.
