In this world, that we currently inhabit. One in which plot holes big enough to pilot a Correlian Corvette through are giant flaws.

The fact that many of these questions are left totally unanswered is why Force Awakens was shit, storywise.

I’m sorry, who besides you holds this insane belief?

i don’t understand how the republic/resistance or the starkiller got through even ONE script meeting

what are you, 8 years old?

“The only problem that I have is that is felt like it leaned a bit much on the original trilogy.”

“I’ve seen kids from other countries, pick up a glove and bat for the first time and be a million times better than kids who have been playing for years.”

Also, what the fuck are they resisting? who’s in charge here? the republic? or the first order?

althey weren’t callbacks. the ENTIRE PLOT IS NEARLY IDENTICAL TO A NEW HOPE

i don’t wanna diminish your enthusiasm necessarily, but in ‘77 “A New Hope” was a brand new experience, both in story and in the fact that there was a full-on theatrical space opera. In 2015, “The Force Awakens” is just “A New Hope: Again.” Nothing new here.

Were you watching the movie with people who hadnt seen Star Wars? The moment Rey and co. cruised out on the balcony thing and saw Han confront Ren, it was “oh, here’s where Abrams rips off when Obi Wan dies.” Was beyond obvious. Nothing shocking about that.

go see more movies

and it showed. that was brutal to watch.

you mean that in a bad way right. i almost eye-rolled myself right out of the theater. that was some high camp shit right there.

shit, that’s pretty good. but no way that’s true. waaaaaaay too much originality.

well, she probably would remember him and not react incredulously when she first hears Luke’s name.

yeah. or less editing maybe. i’d like to watch the HUGELY IMPORTANT CHUNK CUT OUT WHEN REY WAS MADE TO GIVE A FUCK ABOUT FINDING LUKE! What, she just says, “oh well” and hops in the Falcon to find Luke? Why? She doesn’t really even know who he is. I was legit confused for a second about where they were going. That was…

YES! Wanna get a beer? My thoughts exactly. And I was almost horrified to hear myself say it, but I immediately said to my wife, “shit, maybe the prequels weren’t so bad. at least they took a risk.”

he also looked like he was imitating a shitty 80s soap opera actor. his reveal was one of the campiest things i’ve seen in ages. reminds you why you’ve really only seen mark hamill in video game roles.

the problem with your theory is that nothing about TFA is original, so Rey is Luke’s daughter, guaranteed.
