You can tell they were trying something new but overall felt bland and boring.
Props for knowing to use two CG programs I guess.

They all just look like elderly Asian people.

I like a few of those but not most.
Question: Is the first guy from the second row, the long nosed one, meant to be the same species as the snitch from Episode 4?
I like the last three aliens in your photo, the rest are okay as background characters I guess but not that great.
Unkar Plutt and Maz Kanata are really lame.

I don't think so. That sort of consistent world-building is above the hack JJ's talents

The one that is the most important and shows up the most is the worst of them all. An orange female version of Yoda with butthole eyes and a stupid voice. LOL. But she's female, feeeeeeeemaaaaaaaaale. That's the only thing that matters!

Fucking boring, uninspired designs and try hard rip offs of OT aliens. Wouldn't be so bad if they actually had established aliens in the background as well. There were only 3 species from the OT/PT

- Wookies
- Akbars
- Lando's laughing friend

Very diverse in design, but somehow still ugly and boring. Ugly is understandable, but boring just sucks.

Why did the movie have no Rodians, Twileks, Hutts, Duros, Ithorians, Togruta, etc? The background aliens is what makes Star Wars Star Wars

They made a familiar plot in an unfamiliar world, when they should have made an original story in a familiar world

There's that word again..

Did TFA use a single alien species that was already established, or was it all new?

Personally I dislike the designs. They all look samey.

star wars was always a fucking joke

As far as I know, Chewy is the only one that isn't a new alien. They created all these new ones to make the universe feel bigger and to make you feel like you've only just scratched the surface of it's vastness, but it just comes off as boring and tiresome because the movie is shit.

>>84885976

Not really. They all have similar eyes and face structures.

>>84883499
no, they were doctor who shit tier

They are too derivative. Like the rest of the film.

I assumed this was a returning alien, and it was one of the only parts of the movie that made me laugh
But apparently it's a nightwatcher worm. New alien, derivative design.

Why are they all bipedal with ape hands and all roughly the same body proportions.
