OK since this is a discussion thread I can actually breakdown what I thought of the movie here instead of very general BS. The overall pacing was a lot slower than I expected but that's not necessarily a bad thing, it also still had some good moments. Some of the Dialogue seemed a bit forced but a good portion was witty and I enjoyed the banter. I like the character development Ren's face.... nuff said. Some of it was pretty predictable (not always a bad thing), especially Han's Death I'm all for Rey being an awesome Jedi but her force powers were very "Deus ex Machina" toward the end, I mean she thought the Jedi were nothing but a myth up until mid movie and she's had literally no training in the force. Even a wounded Ren should of bested both of them with ease, noted he wanted to recruit Rey but still. Wouldn't a weapon that absorbs the sun completely destabilize that entire system? Food for thought The soundtrack is fantastic, John Williams is a master of his craft Trilogy once again starts with the search for droid(s) I feel the whole reason for Luke's disappearance was stupid, sure through him a sith rose up and killed all the padawans but to just get up and leave it all seems like the worst decision. GET OUT THERE AND STOP THIS FOOL LIKE THE MASTER YOU ARE. I'm glad J.J. didn't rely heavily on CG Lots of imagery, whether it was too much or not is up to you Maybe a little too many similarities to the original trilogy? Might just be me The film does a good job reintroducing people to the star wars universe while setting a very solid foundation for the rest of the trilogy, I look forward to where it goes from here
