- A lot happened in The Force Awakens. A lot I couldn't talk about in my spoiler free review. But now, sit back, watch, and enjoy me talking about the spoilers in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens"!
Finn and Poe....The Uber Bromance of the Star Wars Saga. At the end of the 3rd movie, Finn gonna walk out on Rey's cute/hot looks and join Poe as the two bros fly off in the sunset...BROS BEFORE HOES...May the Bromance be with you, always
Looool if that happens im gonna lose it in the cinema xD
+tonious35 LMAO!!..They are"natural wingmen"to each other hands down ..I bet they could pull ALL the hottest women in the entire galaxy!.....But seriously!..if Finn actually walked out on Rey like that that would blow my mind up!!!
+paradyneT101 yeah if they are both jedi it be bad since they're not allowed to have relationships but if finn is a blaster character then there might be a chance to see what rey picks.
+1evilgsta1 honestly alot of the jedi rules were lost so i think all rules are out the window. they need jedis.......start populating lol
+tonious35
Bromance. What about straight up romance?
Why not? That would be pretty awesome. Come on. Make it happen.
What if Luke dropped Ray on that planet cause he was scared that she could turn evil too ?
+B. Stefan Did you see how many marks were on that wall she was using to keep track of how long she was there? I don't think Luke would ever abandon a kid with no one to look after them on a desert planet, especially considering his own past.
Linerunner99 That was maybe a test .
+Linerunner99 Maybe he left her there with guardian(s) who died/got killed. Still doesn't make much sense that he wouldn't check up on her though. Surely Luke would check on her, and if she's Han's and/or Leia's, they also wouldn't be likely to leave her alone without someone to at least take care of her in her absence. But I can't imagine she's not part of the Skywalker and/or Solo family. Maybe they wanted to protect her identity for some reason.
+B. Stefan he prob did the same thing they did with him , he hid here while he went into hiding .
she wasn't left alone I remember seeing someone holding her arm and a guy calls her a stupid kid or something.Also she wanted to go back to jakku like if she was waiting for someone to comeback for her
Why do people say Phasma was awesome? She was just there,there was nothing cool or uncool about her.
She is Boba (the new one i mean)
Yura Yedynak
pretty sure ppl say phasma's cool cuz of the comics,
she is said 2 appear in episode 8 as well, in this movie she got roughly 2 mins of screen time
in the upcoming one she's gonna get at least 25 mins ,
that might not be much but it's more screen time than boba fett in all 3 movies of the original trilogy combined .
plus she's gonna be a total badass
Yura Yedynak true
Yura Yedynak BECAUSE SHE IS BRIENNE OF TARTH AND SHE WILL BE RESPECTED AS SUCH
didnt she died because the new death star planet exploded?
Finn:I'm here to break you out. I'm leaving the First Order.
Poe: Do you promise you're not working as a spy and as soon as I take you to the resistance base you'll contact them?
Finn:No
Poe: Seems legit... let's go buddy!!!
*AND I'M LIKE WTF YOU BELIEVE HIM?!*
+Aritra Dutta Didn't have much of a choice at the time.
Yes, and finn murdering tons of stomtroopers in the process does not prove anything either...
+Aritra Dutta - He had his mask off. Must really mean that he wanted to leave the first order :3 .. When you see someones actual face you want to believe that person more. Plus had no other choice.
+Aritra Dutta If Kylo Ren made Poe tell him about the droid I am pretty sure he could have made him tell him about the base
+Aritra Dutta i guess the force told him or something
Jeremy, how do you think Maz Katana found Luke's lightsaber?
+William Nunn Because She's Batman.
+Jeremy Jahns And the truth shall set you free!
+Jeremy Jahns well... Yeah
+Jeremy Jahns or Luke gave it to Maz Katana to hand it to Rey . Hmmm
+Cloud Sodding Strife Nah she's batman
I'm just putting this out here since I haven't seen anyone state this explicitly yet. Did anyone notice how the entire scene of Kylo killing Han was staged to be like the one in Empire Strikes Back with Vader and Luke, while the point of the scene was to be completely opposite of the dynamic between Luke and Vader in ROTJ to show how dark Kylo really was?
I mean, Luke refused to kill his father and turn to the dark side and so his father could embrace the light side again and save him and in turn redeems himself, since 'there was good in him'. But here Kylo WANTS to get rid of that little bit of 'light in him' which is still there and so he willingly does the exact opposite and kills his father to complete his turn to the dark side.
That scene really shows how Kylo is the antithesis of Luke and was a brilliant move in my book. Kylo really was the most evil bastard he wanted to be, in that scene.
Palpatine would be proud, were he around to see it! XD
+Sci_Ant Duuuude, I was thinking the same thing! Brilliant move! Also loved the blue and red reflected off Kylo's face, which turns completely red when he kills Han. Just boss :D
GPMM213 Yeah, that color change when the star gets consumed was amazing! I like how they showed the sky go dark just before it happened and then their faces are illuminated with just red and black.
+Sci_Ant Kylo well i imagine that he's like itachi from naruto or severus snape from harry potter or Tommy Oliver but he was mind controlled i believe that kylo is doing this intentionally so far reasons unknown hopefully next movie will elaborate
Brayden Aitkenhead Yep his character might be much deeper than we think. And as you said, he might be doing this on purpose to destroy the Sith from inside. Maybe that's what he meant when he said "I will finish what you started" and was referring to bringing balance to the force.
+Sci_Ant If Palpatine was still alive he would make Kylo stronger than Vader ever was.
Rey is Luke and Leia's daughter.
You need therapy, that's some extremely fucked up shit
+Gresh854 Why so touchy? It's clearly a joke.
+DoubleJumpa well, if you incest...
+CD Rivera i see what you did there ...
+DoubleJumpa Skywalkers are Lannisters apparently?
Thank you! A Star wars review that actually goes through all the awesome bits of the movie (which was the majority of it). Instead of the other ones that I've seen that just ignores them and desperately finds small criticisms and complains about them.
Critics being critical of a movie? HOW DARE THEY
+lovablesnowman I see your point but I was manly addressing how some reviewers are ignorant of all the good bits.
+OneLoudNinja You're*
And again how dare reviewers have a different opinion than yours
They don't need small criticisms to find out what was wrong with this...
+TdFlux The political relations between the Republic and the Resistance make no
sense.
How is Han back into smuggling? It would have made more sense for him to
just retire. There is a free Republic out there and he was a general so
how hard would it be for him to make a decent living there? I'm sure
that Leia could have hooked him up with a good job.
Or what's up with the Starkiller shield. The Millennium Falcon has
easily gone through the shield by warping inside the shield bubble. Why
didn't they do that with the entire squadron of X-wings?
How can I care about Rey leaving Jakku if I have no idea what is she
waiting there?
The Starkiller laser is faster than light? If the Starkiller base was
build in an unknown region of space (they say that in the books, I
think) how was the laser that fast? Ever for a spaceship it would take a
lot more time to reach the main republic planets than 10 seconds.
They revealed Kylo was Han's son WAY too early and WAY too rushed. Then Han's death scene has almost no emotional weight to it
Him taking off his helmet too early killed the emotion of it for me.
I liked it in Context. Remember Rey calls Kylo a "monster with a mask." To which he shuts her up by taking off the mask without hesitation. that's pretty dope
I know it seemed like it was just a way for Harrison to leave the role
I think it would have worked better if we never fully get it spelled out to us, but instad Han said to Leia "I saw him" "who?" "Our son" And then when Han sees Kylo on the bridge he yells out "Ben!" and after they have a talk, Ren then takes off him mask, they stare at each other and after for a second we think Han will live, Kylo stabs him
+EsechavaHD no movie is perfect. Quit being a fucking blind fan boy.
When this movie came out everyone was so happy until they realized its a copy and paste of a new hope :(
I was still happy even after realizing that lol. Unoriginal, but set up a solid cast.
13:00 Oh Jeremy....you poor, poor innocent soul
Rey has to be Han's daughter.
1)Jedi are not allowed to love/who would Luke have a kid with, he never had a love interest in the movies.
2)In Rey's flashback she saw the ship flying away and she was getting droped off, my theory is that Kylo is older than Rey and when Kylo went to the dark side and Leia said that she should have never sent him off, she and Han maybe left her on Jakku to stay away from all that stuff and just live normal life.
3)Why did Han give Rey a wierd look when she says that she didnt know there was this much green in the galaxy. Its like he knows where shes been.
4)Rey is just naturally good at flying and good with motor skills and such. How would she get that from Luke.
Annnnnd it would also make the story more interesting if it was Bro vs Sis besides cousin v cousing amirite
You don't know though because Luke was the last jedi so he could make up new rules for the jedi order. Luke be like thug life
+Shane Wellar There is problem with your statement. When Rey got captured by Kylo Ren, it wasn't Han or Leia's idea to save Rey but Finn. Secondly, no one in the Resistance ever tried to find Rey but just Luke Skywalker and Kylo Ren. Why is that?
The best part about the flashback is that it never mention that Rey was abandoned in Jakku. It just showed her being abandoned in a desert planet at 5 years old. What if Rey was abandoned in Luke's planet, Tatooine instead of Jakku? That could explain how Luke Skywalker found Rey and raised her like his daughter. That explains why his lightsaber calls Rey because Luke has given Rey his lightsaber when he decided to train Rey as a Jedi. That also explains how she is insanely powerful even without any training.
Anakin and luke were very good pilots probably the best of there times so it is possible that she got the flying skills from the skywalker bloodline
anakin was a good pilot, not luke tho
+Shane Wellar Luke wasn't a good pilot????!!!! Did you not see episode 4 when he was at the Death Star? Did you not hear when Obi wan said "I've heard you've become a good pilot yourself" or when Biggs said " Luke is the best pilot in the outer rim territory" Luke was a fantastic pilot
I have 3 problems with the movie, and yes, please answer like if you want to convert me or something because i really want to love this one.
1- It was basically a remake of episode 4, almost frame by frame (obvious exageration).
2- Yes, she was a badass, but... too much of a badass. Maybe Kylo didn't practice enough but neither did she, she never had use a lightsaber, it makes no sense. Neither her dominance of the Force, is she an Anakin? since the first movie we know it takes time with training and metitation, to understand and "use" the Force, but she was insta-Jedi knight??
3- Han's death. It was predictable AF. Yeah, it's always tragic a betrayal of such proportions but, that's the only thing that makes it kind of "strong" and it's not even an original one.
it was similar too episode four but not the same and rey is most likely lukes daughter and she knows how to fight with her staff and that is not different from a light saber and its possible that luke made her forget any memories of her being trained and kylo did not beat her because he was wounded and everyone knew some character was going to die and everyone thought Han was so it was not going to be surprising no matter what they did with his death
oh and dont forget that luke destroyed the death star with just a few hours training in the force soo...
why do people keep brining up the Ren V Ray fight? Kylo Ren was shot in the stomach by chewbacca not to mention Ren just killed his own father, remember the mental state of someone seriously effects someones fighting abilities just look at Anakin Vs Obi Wans fight in episode 3.
The problem with everything both say is speculation.
Ray may or may not be Luke's daughter, but even if she was, she was left in Jakku when she was a little girl, that's not a lot of training, even less if it was "wiped" from her memory.
Staff and saber fighting are not similar even in real life, and we don't actually saw any martial skill with it, but coventional hits. If so, then i'd say Finn had the upper hand, yet he almost died.
And Luke communion with the Force is comparable with Ray and little Anakin flight skills, i have no problem with that, it's nowhere as near as to have certain dominance over Force *TECHNIQUES* (not dependant of intuition/reflexes), like the "Jedi mind trick" or "telekinesis", or at least not as powerful as Kylo's dominance of the Force.
+Shabir Ali Also, remember that we see her beat up two thugs by herself early in the movie, and that was before she realized she was force-sensitive. She was probably always a better melee fighter than Fin, makes sense that she would fare better in a saber duel
I lovedddd when Kylo Ren kept getting bad news and had a temper tantrum with his lighsaber and the stormtroopers just walked away
+4hotpink10 or they know what's going on so they just walk away lol
yup that was one of the 10 funny moments in the movie i loved :)
+4hotpink10 favorite scene
+4hotpink10 Is it me or I just flashed to his character on girls when he had a temper tantrum lolz
The scenes with Han using Chewies Bowcaster were hillarious
The funniest thing to me in this movie was when the two stormtroppers came by the cell and heard Kilo raging and noped out of *there*.
YES THAT WAS AMAZING
+HaloMachinima Films The best part was "Anything else?"
+HaloMachinima Films - there". Indeed the funniest.
+HaloMachinima Films The funniest thing to me was the stormtrooper before that scene!
With Rey trying to do mindtrick on him setting her free!
He was called Stormtrooper JB-007 and was played by Daniel Craig ,James Bond!
"We are too old for this shit" - Two random stormtroopers
Oh Jeremy, I'm sorry the future killed your inner nostalgia in such an awful way.
Darksummerswind it honestly breaks my heart.
Darksummerswind it makes me actually sad
I’m a time traveller too and the new trilogy makes me sad
@@killer100080 no it doesn't.
@@BabysitterSky
How do you know
best part was when BB-8 did the thumbs up
I'm pretty sure that was a middle finger
+ArxTheGamer u can't do middle fingers in a Disney movie dude..
+Yuvi Singh What about Guardians of the Galaxy?
+LlamaKing9000
That part was censored anyway...
+LlamaKing9000 guardians of the galaxy ....the movie at lease has nothing to do with Disney...thats marvel
Why are people saying that it's bullshit that Kylo got bitched slapped by Rey?? *He was shot with a fucking bow caster*. Y'Know, that weapon that blew normal troopers off their fucking feet?
+CraftyMiscreant I guess people just assumed that the first or 2nd in command of this deadly First Order would have some skill with the only weapon he carries around against an, as of right now unexplained, novice force user who never lit up a lightsaber to that point.
useful76
Hey, Luke was a novice that turned off his targeting computer to take out a super weapon when he heard voices in his head, while almost being blown to pieces by a very extremely powerful guy named Vader.
It's a David vs. Goliath TV trope.
And yes, that's actually a thing. I swear to god.
***** What would have happened to Luke if he tried to take on Vader one on one even if Vader was injured in ANH? Obiwan even tells him "Run dumbass!". Flying an xwing and firing a torpedo is one thing but taking on the leader of this big bad army and not just holding your own but dominating him is entirely different.
useful76
Vader is a behemoth of a villain who has killed hundreds of jedi, conquered countless planets, and has years upon years of Sith and Jedi training. Ontop of that, he has robotic limbs that exponentially increase his strength. Yes. Run.
Kylo is half assed trained, and hasn't really killed anyone as a worthy adversary. His fresh baby skin face implies that he hasn't even really been put in any risky situations. He's a brat with a lightsaber. He cried when he saw his dad. Vader killed obi wan without even thinking about it.
On top of that, he got his shit pushed in by chewy by a bow caster cannon.
When he finally went toe to toe with Rey, he was tired, hurt, and worn out. He could have killed rey, but tried to seduce her instead, which was his tactical mistake.
Nothing came out of the blue. Everything was introduced and shown in the movie to build up to that critical fight; the force sensitivity, Kylo's temper, Luke's lightsaber, Rey's fierceness, etc etc. It all fits. JJ "earned his turn" if you will.
In the most straightforward narrative terms, we are just fed "Hey he's hurt" to cover how powerful Rey was in bitch slapping the leader of the first order. That doesn't bother you? Ok then.
I really liked how chewy reacted to hans death, he saw him die, screamed and then went ham on everyone, blasting down stormtroopers left and right, injuring Kyle o ren and then blowing the whole place up. Never anger a wookie
Kylo ren, I didn't research his names spelling
+jamie fuller i like kile-o-ren better XD
sounds like the name of a cereal brand :P
It's not wise to upset a Wookie.
Wookies are known to pull arms out of sockets when they lose.
+jamie fuller spoilers
+N3RD On a spoiler review, so I guess it's ok
Watching this after Rise of Skywalker to remember when Jeremy was excited about Star Wars.
Yep. They sucked.
God this just mad me sad watching it, so much wasted potential
The fin story shouldve been so much more a storm trooper turn resistance fighter like come Aon 😩
Jeremy wasn’t the only one. How I miss the days where I assumed they had the whole trilogy methodically planned out like George Lucas did for his Original and Prequel Trilogy, as opposed to the unplanned messy joke of a trilogy.
This was before the dark times..
1.Empire strikes back
2. Force Awakens
3. New Hope
4. Return of the Jedi
5 Revenge of the Sith
6. Attack of the Clones
7. Phantom Menace
+Conner Wilcons
Attack of the Clones should be last. For the sole reason that Lucas should have known better after the poor reception to The Phantom Menace.
+HubbleFunk The Christmas Special
+Conner Wilcons I believe you mean 7 the movie that shall not be named. lol
+Conner Wilcons I like Return of the Jedi more than New Hope, but then it's pretty much the same
+Conner Wilcons 5,4,7,6,3,1,2
imo
attack of the clones is even worse than phantom menace imo, at least 1 had that awesome duel of the fates score and darth maul and the lightsaber battle
The BB-8 thumbs up, oh my goodness i was laughing so hard
Holy shit. It was so funny! 😂
+TheUngiftedGamer People were awwing in the theater
+TheUngiftedGamer i read that not as a thumbs up but as him giving Finn the finger
+TheUngiftedGamer Star wars is a shitty movie, Fantastic 4 was better
I thought he flipped Finn off because he didn't want to lie..
"I look forward to seeing that friendship grow in the next movie."
"He went into hiding because of shame."
"I think in the next one he's going to be much more badass."
"The bad guys are going to carry over into the next movies. You shouldn't just change out your bad guys for the sake of making action figures . Keep the bad guys around, it just makes them more interesting."
"Star Wars is back. I'm just super glad I'm here to see that."
Oh Jeremy. Oh sweet, sweet Jeremy.
I mean
The second quote about Luke isn't wrong...
This is sad anyway
I laughed when I heard him say that 🤣
Rian f’ed everything up.
Oh boy the disappointment coming young Jeremy’s way
Plot twist!!! when Han touches Bens face he says: "Youre adopted" and then falls and dies
+Maracatos “maracatos1122” reyes
Plot twist!!! When Ray finds Luke, Luke trips over the edge of the cliff and dies.
+joel rice you know that actually almost happened? When shooting the movie, they talked about how Mark Hamill almost had a life threatening incident. Apparently he actually almost did fall off that cliff when they shot the ending scene. Must've lost his balance or something
Plot twist.... Luke and Ray aren't related. But she's hot so Luke thanks Ray by bending her over one of the rocks and showing her the force.
+Maracatos “maracatos1122” reyes imagine him thinking in his head'glad i fucking used a condom
HAA!!
Kylo Ren was such a hypocrite for calling Finn a traitor after he killed his father. Kylo became King Douchebag.
+Talia al Ghul Kylo isn't a hypocrite at all. He made a vow to the Dark Side. He kept it despite all. He showed great loyalty/
+Contevent But do you not think he was loyal to his family first?
TheRoyal Marines Where he consider his loyalty lies tells us about his morals.
That he chose evil makes him evil, but that he staid evil despite the temptation makes him loyal nonetheless.
Storm troopers are extremely expendable and he's getting mad over just one lol
TheRoyal Marines There was a riddle among Samurai during their time in feudal Japan, a question aimed to test one's understanding of the Bushido, the way of the warrior, a code each Samurai (meaning "one who serve") had to follow.
Which exemplified more the Bushido? The one who serve a good master or the one who serves an evil one?
The answer is the one who serves an evil one, for Loyalty must come before one's own sense of morality.
The case with Kylo Ren is similar. He has chosen a master, the Dark Side, impersonated by Supreme Leader Snoke. Everything blocking his way is a test of loyalty and devotion, even his own family.
Did anyone notice the symbolism foreshadowing Han's death? When they walk on the bridge they're standing in the light and Ben is struggling. By the end of the conversion the sun had vanished leaving them in the dark with Ben's face glowing red from the lights. It rivals that shot in Return of the Jedi.
Yes seen the movie twice and it gave me goose bumps I immediately noticed it when I saw it I didn't even second guess it!
Your way of doing it is just even way less likely to happen. Han knew he may die but he tried anyways and that death carries A LOT of meaning for Kylo Ren. Ren's whole development in this movie is that he is being tempted by the light side and is trying to be darker and more powerful. (Also Ford wanted to die so badly haha)
+sivad parks i noticed that too..soon as all the light was vanishing he started to see his goal of killing his father more clear...good visual metaphor for sure
The shot also harkens back to Leia's line "there's still light in him" when she referred to Ben Solo. I found it interesting that this was a callback to Luke and Padme's lines "there's still good in him" when referring to Anakin Skywalker but used light instead of good. This change in the familiar phrase, along with Po Dameron's line " as long as there's light we still have a chance", foreshadowed Kylo Ren's struggle with the light side. once the light disappeared when both Han and Kylo were on the bridge, there was no hope, light or redemption for Kylo.
+denzel arevalo for now at least
I’m so sad watching this right now lol
Tyler Wright you can just see the difference and his feeling towards Star Wars... sad to see
I SWEAR
This is such a weird feeling... seeing the enthusiasm in both Jeremy and Chris at this period then watching their most recent reviews on 9...
It has alot to do with bitter fans influencing people's minds over the years. The movies aren't that bad. I personally disliked TLJ because of Luke's treatment but The rise of Skywalker was good, it just had alot of rushed material. But as a whole, the trilogy in all fairness is pretty high quality entertainment
Duggalo I respectfully disagree. I thought Last Jedi was a bold new direction that I adored. I knew I wouldn't like Episode 9 after I saw the fan reaction to Last Jedi, I got about what I expected. But it was way worse than I expected. I mean, just immagine how much better it would have been if Hux was a spy for Palpatine, and Palpatine was getting the resistance to do his dirty work with Hux giving the resistance intel to defeat Kylo, but nothing about what's comming. I'll be clear, I don't like the destination they went to, but if I could change one thing that would be it.

Watching this in 2019...
There was so much potential. This movie was actually enjoyable. So disappointing this trilogy didn’t pan out the way it could’ve
Stretch29 yea :/
Stretch29 You there still people defending this movie? This movie made no sense and all the seeds of failure were planted by this damn movie!
Matias Luukkanen I fail to see how this movie didn’t make sense. It had a cohesive plot that was easy to understand to the point that it was criticized for being “too much like a new hope” even though the character arcs are entirely different. However, I’d love to hear your side of the argument
Stretch29
Why is Kylo Ren murderous, cruel and vindictive bastard even though he was raised by loving couple of famous and well-renowned war heroes and his uncle and mentor was a greatest hero galaxy knows? Why he doesn't look anything like either Han or Leia? Why he thinks his grandfather is evil even though his family would have told him the truth thousand time over?
Why does Snoke has such a hold in Kylo Ren? When did they met? Why is Snoke more important to Kylo than his own father. What does Ren mean in Knight's of Ren and in Kylo's name?
Why Coruscant isn't capital of New Republic even though all infrastructure, databases, communication networks and traderouts that make it capital has been situated there for 10 000 years? Have you any idea how costly it would be to make, say, Manchester UK's capital?
How is Star Killer base built if building Death Stars was already a such a feat it almost bankcrupt entire systems and it's destruction heavy blow to galaxy spanning Empire.
How is New Republic inactive if First Order kidnaps children and builds army. What is Resistance resisting? Who leads the New Republic? Why doesn't Galaxy react to Starkiller base and destruction it has caused and condemn First Order?
How does First Order have more resources than Empire even though it doesn not control the Galaxy? Who designed Star Killer base?
Who is Snoke? Where he came from? Is he human? How is he leading First Order. What is Kanji Club. Why did Han Solo abandon everything to become smuggler? How did Maz Kanata got Anakin's lightsaber?
Why is Finn distraught by killing civilians but happily laughs while killing stormtroopers who were his comrades, people he knows. Why is Rey so powerful that she instantly knows mindtrick even though Anakin Skywalker, Chosen One, had to train 10 years and he still lost?
There is so much that this film doesn't answer and this is merely tip of the iceberg...
Matias Luukkanen
Who is Darth Vader?
Why does he lead an entire army and navy?
What does Darth Vader’s name mean?
What is the capitol of the Empire?
How did they build the Death Star?
Where did the empire come from?
Why do they have an army?
How long have they been around?
Who designed the Death Star?
Who leads the empire? Is it this Grand Moff guy?
Why doesn’t the galaxy react to the Death Stars destruction?
What is Leia a princess of?
These are all questions that A New Hope doesn’t answer either, because, like almost all of the questions you posed, the answers don’t really matter. The difference is that A New Hope has had 50 years of sequels, prequels, and tv shows to flesh out those questions. And if you want to get pedantic, books have answered a lot of your questions, but most people don’t read those so we can discount them.
At the end of the day, I’m not defending the Sequel TRILOGY. It is DEEPLY flawed. All I’m saying is that this movie is a fun, self contained narrative that had a lot of potential for where it could go.
I fucking loved the film. I also enjoyed how we understood that Kylo Ren was a total rookie due to the fact that he lashed out in anger numerous times. Vader never did that. Vader was always a chill dude.
. . . who killed people right on the spot for minor failures. Kylo only lashed out on technology.
I loved the fact that he lost control of himself, it made him more menacing
+Corban-James Halliday Exactly that, what you wrote supports the theory. Vader was chill, emotionless and cruel. It didnt even raise his heartrate when he killed his officers for minor failures in cold blood. Ren however is a rookie, its more difficult for him to kill people for little reason and he also lacks the selfcontrol so he goes into raging fits and breaks terminals... All in all = Vader never let anyone see him lose his temper, and punished every failure brutaly, but calmly. Ren was unable to maintain an image of a cold distant executioner and raged alot, but also didnt kill that many people because he had some emotions left.
+Corban-James Halliday But he was always calm when choking people to death. :)
+Petr Novák More difficult for him to kill people? He ordered the extermination of a village and killed his father. WHAT!?!?!?!
SECRET SPOILER
The Stormtrooper that Rey used the force on for the first time after she had been captured is Daniel Craig.
Serious?
lovablesnowman t.co/rNLl2cbShe t.co/8gV1RcJ4Z6
Also, Simon Pegg was that guy who sold Rey those tokens and wanted BB-8.
Yeah I heard the ETC Podcast guys say that too. I'd have to hear it again to know for sure
+kanzayua N that's awesome!!
I can't believe people are pissed at the lightsaber fights. They felt more like the duals from the original trilogy which I prefer over the over choreographed, flippy, spinny duals of the prequels.
Lol thts my thought too. I didnt realise how bad too choreographed can be.
+Deo Lan
Well, if the characters are supposedly engaging in a fight to the death but ultimately look like they are participating in a dance instead, of course the fights are gonna suck.
But Jorge didn't get that....Oh well.
+9_Bucks I'm not angry about the duels, they were amazing, but I still don't think choreographed is bad
no I disagree I love the original trilogy but even I admit the lightsaber fights in the prequels were badass.
+9_Bucks
They still felt more like prequels. Just less jumpy and spinny. Original trilogy's fights were wooden and boring. Ep7's fights were more energetic.
*Btw.* You will always prefer everything from OT because you're one of those internet bitching prequels haters... Most of Us, I mean normal people, will watch both trilogies and be entertained by them and after the movie We will go back to Our life without going on internet to preform Holy Original Trilogy Crusade...
“Star Wars is back, and I’m just glad I’m here to see that”
Watching this in 2019 the day before episode IX comes out... frowning intensely.
Update: just saw the movie. I am now frowning supremely. I am the supreme leader of frowns right now.
Dane Otto after his review ...
I liked IX more than TLJ, I'll give it that, but I'm kinda disappointed to be honest. I actually liked The Force Awakens when it came out and was so pumped to see where they'd take the story. It's okay if people like it, but I just didn't :-/
Eh, it wasn't that bad. I had fun with it. This trilogy wasn't what it could've been, but it was never going beat out either the prequels or the originals in my eyes.
At least it was leagues above the last movie.
Are you the leader of the Frownal Order?
Last jedi was shite however rise of skywalkeer had its ups and downs. still really sad to see what we got compared to what we could of got
What are everyone's thoughts on Maz Kanata? She's obviously seen some shit, too.
+PatMacalister Wasn't that in to her design but seems like she could be a big character going forward
I initially thought when we first saw her was like "really? they got Lupita Nyong'o to play an old black woman but in alien form fs" but then after I got over that I really liked her character
+mk6rfc1 I Just hate how she shoehorned the fact that she and Chewbacca were BG/GF.
Also yes was kind of wasted potential for another hidden Jedi. Why else would she be keeping Skywalker Lightsaber?
+SuperKnalxz Grey what I got from that Chewie mention was that was a joke not that they are actually a couple
Yeah it's interesting to think how she has it since the last time we saw it was dropped somewhere in cloud city
mk6rfc1 That's a nice sub, sort of a joke about how close they are.
Yeah, The Skysaber wasn't anywhere to be found yet she has it. I guess Vader picked it up at some point and hide it away or "The force guided Maz to it"
:/
I honestly believe that the lightsaber battle between Finn and Kylo, and eventually Rey and Kylo, is the best lightsaber battle in the franchise.
Ditto
right two completely untrained with a lightsaber holding people versus the guy who was trained by both Luke and evil guy Snoke... yeah epic battle
definitely. It was gritty and so realistic that you believed this is how it would've happened.
+garner montgomery Ur totally wrong. Kylo Ren Vs. Computers was best lightsaber battle
It's easily the best looking and better choreographed light saber fight, but I still think the ones in empire and Jedi are better from a character place (don't take that as a negative though. I loved every bit of it).
Hello Jeremy, I'm from the future. You will eat your words and began to start hating star wars. Prepare yourself for your darkest timeline.
People are trying so hard to be objective and coming up with reasons to hate the movie that are really irrelevant details that I didn't even notice let alone get annoyed by. Especially the lightsaber fight, like what the hell? It was more choreographed than the original trilogy and less flippy and fake than the prequels, it was honestly done perfectly. And the fact that people are mad that the villain is human instead of a lifeless cloak of darkness really makes me mad, just open your damn minds people, what you want is a totally dry cliche. Be happy that the writers are putting more thought into the characters this time.
well said
Couldn't agree more
The han solo scene made me cry, i dont understand why people say you have to switch off your brain for this one.
what's even more interesting, on the flip side, poeple are blind and even scared to see fault in this movie because it's star wars. I thought it was good but not AMAZING!!!
TheJaywoodcode What were the faults in your opinion?
This video aged like milk
Your analogy is flawed, because if you wait long enough, your aged milk becomes cheese.
Jay Are it’s not flawed, not all milk becomes a type of cheese when it goes bad.
more like it aged like an egg
No it didn't.. TFA WAS and IS AWESOME. nothing can take that away
@@disf5178 I agree. Even though the other two were disorganized and disapointing, nothing can take away how cool it was seeing TFA on opening night. The energy in that theater was unlike anything I've ever experienced.
I just have two major concerns with the movie: For one, what the hell caused R2 to suddenly come back online at the end? Why was he offline "ever since Skywalker disappeared" in the first place? Surely people are capable of maintaining a droid.
Secondly,I felt that the giant weapon at the end (I forget what it's called) basically just seemed to be the Death Star for the sake of replicating the Death Star. It really didn't make much sense to me at all. If the empire was defeated and the First Order is just the remnants, shouldn't they be weaker than they were in the original trilogy? If so, how they hell did they manage to build this massive weapon that's so many times bigger than the Death Star in the first place without the rebellion immediately eliminating the construction?
Aside from those two issues, I absolutely LOVED this movie, and I absolutely love the Disney touch with the humor tied in with the suspense and action. It reminded me a lot of Pirates of the Caribbean in that the hilarity of the interactions between characters only makes the emotional scenes that much more shocking. That scene where Han Solo dies legitimately gave me goosebumps and even early on, when you're led to believe Poe was killed in the landing, I still felt a strong connection to this character purely just from the interactions between him and Finn and the possibility of his death was really upsetting even though I felt it was pretty obvious the rebellion's best pilot would not have died that easily.
+Aura Fox the terrible writing was because of it, you know because connivance purposes.
I look at the R2 thing like this. Luke sensed Han got killed and Rey kicking Kylo's ass. He felt its time to step back in so he remotely reactivate R2 so that they can find him.
The point of the First Order was that they wanted to be greater than the Empire, so they built a better Death Star. Also, if you read After,agh, the new canon book, the size of the New Republic navy was severely reduced by the Senate, I believe. That's why it's not the New Republic fighting, it's the Resistance.
+Jordan Lo I butchered that name Aftermath.
+Aura Fox I think Starkiller Station is built around a planet (hence the snow and people being able to survive in it) after the First Order took over
who is excited for ep 8 when Kylo fights Rey when they are both fully trained, the most anticipated fight of 2017
Kylo vs Rey
+geromino97 only 523 days to go
+ttandc Should I book it off now? Today was the first day that I booked off in years. When I told my boss I wanted the 18th off he looked deeply concerned and asked if I had some kind of medical appointment. I said, "Non, Star Wars." and he was like, "Star Wars!?" ha ha ha ha.
Heather Spoonheim I'm not sure what "book it off" means mate. But if it means should I arrange to have that day off with my boss I would say yeah, better arrange it now before the others try to :D
+ttandc Yes - mark that day on the books as a day off for me - book it off. Maybe a Canuckism. Anyway, I had no trouble getting this one off - I mostly work with kids who really don't know anything about Star Wars. The older ones don't speak English so never got into it.
No
I don't understand this film. I watched the whole thing and didn't see a single taxation on any trade routes. Probably the most disappointing thing I've ever experienced.
+Lider Supremo Snoke it's obviously sarcasm dude...
I agree
No politics
Bunch of crap written buy executives
The lack of Gungans and Ewoks bothered me too. Who made this crap?! :D And no analogies about sand too...
+FN-2187 TRAITOR
+Lider Supremo Snoke his name is FN 2187.. the traitor of stormtroopers... you need force or your common sense my friend
Sadly, I had everything spoiled the day it came out. Aside from that, HOLY SHIT THIS MOVIE WAS AWESOME. So proud of having watched my first SW movie in the cinema. Also, if someone is wondering, this movie is great even if you have never watched any SW movie (tested it w my cousin)
+Nexis siempreaqui This is why I didn't use my computer for over two weeks--resisting temptation is easier with no temptation--and warned everyone I know that if they spoiled it before I saw it I would kill them. Although that also meant I d@mn near started bawling in the theatre when Chewie screamed...
KnightsaysNi I should ve done that... I didnt think people would spoil everything everywhere just because
And I knoooow
when the scene came I was like oh god its coming oh no no no come on *sigh*... oh god I was not prepared for it
Nexis siempreaqui I heard from one of the kids I work with that some @sshole at his school saw it, and then went around to a bunch of classrooms telling them about how Han dies. >:(
KnightsaysNi wow not cool
+KnightsaysNi Same with a annoying eighth grader I know
Here's what I think about Rey beating Kylo Ren. Aside from the obvious fact that Kylo Ren was injured and out of practice:
1. Rey has years of experience fighting with her stick, so while it's not the same thing, she knows how to fight with a melee weapon.
2. It is established that she is strong in the Force, and probably stronger than Kylo Ren because he also lacked training, and because she's probably Luke's daughter.
3. The thing that gives her the advantage though is the fact that to control the Force, *PATIENCE* is required. Kylo Ren has temper issues, because he's so desperate to prove that he can be better than Darth Vader; which makes him very impatient when things aren't going his way. Rey, though, has mastered patience throughout all those years she waited for her family, so she's much more calm, which makes it easier for her to be more in tune with the Force, even without proper training.
Some very good points. I feel like Kylo Ren was actually weak, because you could see how angry he became when something did not go his way. He would strike at everything with his light saber. And it was implied that he wanted to become more powerful than Darth Vader. He could have become impatient because he was so desperate to be more powerful than Vader. Overall I thought Ren was a great villain because he had emotion.
+50PSP Animation (Jimmy Reyes)
1) Ren has training with the weapon he's using, Rey has literally never wielded a lightsaber before. Shoot, fucking _Fin_ had more experience with a lightsaber than she did.
2) Strength in the Force does not equal lightsaber training. Anakin was stronger in the Force than any other Force user in Star Wars and he still lost more than one fight, _WITH_ his training in mind.
3) Rey has zero training with the Force and every single time she uses it, it flies in the face of everything the movies have established and, more importantly, she never _earns_ her power. She just _receives_ it, like the god damn "chosen one" idea that the prequels themselves deconstructed.
Fuck this movie, fuck J.J. Abrams, and fuck me for expecting something out of it.
+Ikrani you sound like a casual fan. you know nothing. you can clearly tell that she was at the school and had her mind wiped. so she has had training. we are also TOLD that Kylo still hasn't finished his training. he is just a kid with a bad temper being used for his power just like Han said to him. go rewatch the movie seems you fell asleep half way in
+Ikrani What crack are you smoking?
1. Rey may not have training with a lightsaber (that we know of) but it's shown very early on in the movie that she knows how to fight with a melee weapon. She bests those two thugs on Jakku like it isn't shit.
2. Ren is not only wounded by Chewie AND Finn by the time Rey gets in the fight, but he's also overly emotional and frustrated which you can tell from how he's just crudely bashing on her with his lightsaber. He honestly looks tired and like a toddler who's upset they're not the special one anymore. He just wants the fight to be over, he's not actually sword(saber?) fighting.
3. Rey may not have training (that we know of) in the Force but she's clearly a natural just like Luke was. Some people are just more Force tuned than others. I honestly think Rey is naturally stronger than Kylo. You can have a million years of training in the Force but it doesn't automatically make you stronger than people who are more Force tuned than you. Yoda has been studying the Force for 850+ years but Mace Windu was considered stronger than him in regard to using the Force powers. Yoda was just wiser and could tap into the Force's energy and feel things better than anyone else.
4. As 50PSP said, Kylo hasn't faced against an enemy who uses the Force in a long time and it's clear the Force isn't as strong with him as it is with Rey. We see Kylo struggle to use his powers several times i.e. when he's calling Luke's lightsaber, when he tries to mind read Po and Rey, etc. You can actually see Kylo straining his body to use the Force because he's desperate to match up to Anakin which I don't think he's ever going to reach that level. You need discipline, patience, and faith to grow in strength and while Kylo seems faithful in the darkside, I don't think he's very patient. He wants to be that badass right NOW and he's clearly not done training.
Not just that but Rey in the beginning was completely defensive and running away. Also Ren wasnt trying to kill her unlike Finn, his mission (and personal desire) was for her to join the dark side. He was pulling a less skilled and more injured Vader moment.
#BringBackLando
Agreed
#BringBackLando
I want Wedge back too
+Mr.jellyfish i think lando is finn's dad
+FunkySportsBag i second that . it has to be.
This movie sucked, they didn't even include Jar-Jar Binks :(
hahahahaha
actually..........there's a pretty good theory......
Panax Ioius snoke is jar jar.......
Jar-Jar was the key to all of this. :(
jar jar ruined most of star wars
Think of Kylo Ren like Prince Zuko from Avatar-not Darth Vader 2.0. That will help you adjust your expectations of him. Also, I'm glad Finn isn't dead. I thought he was going to be dead.
+KingLink95 interesting throught
Zuko is my favorite from avatar so it would be sick
I'm wondering when we see him again he would be crippled. He took a narly slice in the back.
+KingLink95 I thought Kylo Ren died. That finishing blow from Rei looked like it took his head clean off. Thank God he didn't die.
+OnlyRoke he didn't it just knocked him back. We clearly saw him get the Snoke saying to bring Kylo to him to finish his training.
I am going to run down why the final duel works so well and what so many naysayers absolutely fail to realize. Kylo Ren is not a proper Sith Lord, he's a Sith Lord in training and hasn't properly mastered his full abilities yet plus he's bleeding from a wound and is filled with rage and reckless emotion the same way Luke was filled with emotion when he fought Vader in Empire which then led to Luke losing badly. Kylo Ren is not in a proper state by that point which contrasts heavily with Rey who starts out afraid and running for her life to then a level head who's calm and brave enough to face Kylo and defend herself. Rey is not a proper Jedi but she kept a level head and didn't let fear or aggression get in her way of defense and offense which is exactly what happened with Kylo Ren's character. The film pretty much shows you this and apparently that whole thing went over people's heads.
+J Man
Good analysis.
It's amazing how much of the subtleties the haters miss. No surprise though. Stupidity and an incessant desire to whine often go hand-in-hand
Simon Higgins Star Wars is kind of just in a sad state right now. For me on the OT, they're just films that have good and bad things in them and they are legendary but they are just films with special effects and some great characters. The OT is not the Bible, it's just a film franchise that has a fanbase and this fanbase has kind of grown into something very scary and uncomfortable that I don't really want to be apart of anymore.
+J Man
luke was in rage as well when i actually defeated vader!+
rey had training by luke, and also snoke, in spite perhaps not beeing fully trained, he clearly had combat experience and he could handle his weapon well, doesnt make any sense a noob go the better of him, how talented she may be
+J Man Actually in the book, Ray is very close to falling to the dark side her self during that fight. The movie did not portray it that way but the book gives incite to her emotions during the fight what is going on and the fact she is being goaded on by a voice through the force telling her to kill him, even though she chooses not to do so. Something else to think about.
+J Man People seem to forget that like ten minutes earlier he'd just executed his bloody dad in cold blood, which was a cause of tremendous conflict and torment as he himself says. And the biggest arc in the whole movie besides. And then he got shot and all that other stuff.
I can't imagine anyone more beaten down physically and emotionally. Wasn't exactly the best time to go and have a sword fight to the death with multiple people.
Definitely still think Rey is Luke's daughter.
Also, I'm pretty sure Ben will return to the Light Side before the end of Episode 9. He's too conflicted to stay a bad guy.
Idk man, he murdered his own father without much hesitation.
+Stud03Muffin anakin murder bunch of children and still turned to the light, kylo will probably turn to the light before he die
+malik sakti yeah that could happen but I feel like Kylo is already ripping off Vader in a lot of ways, I doubt they would rip him off completely. If they did, that would just be bad writing.
+TheGlacialWarrior wouldn't be surprised if he died redeeming himself like his grandfather.
+Stud03Muffin Han and Kylo's whole confrontation was Kylo hesitating and asking his father to help him go fully to the dark side
If Luke goes up to Rey in Episode 8 and goes "I am your father", I'm gonna laugh so hard.
she's obi-wan's daughter
indianawesomeness time line is way off for that
sorry i meant granddaughter
indianawesomeness no
Kain Prime Nope...he just throws the lightsaber aside like an apathetic douchebag...cuz THAT is what all of the fans wanted...right?
Star Wars: 1977-2017
Yup, better watching it the 2nd time!
Hey guys I just reviewed Star Wars so if you would like a quick, spoiler free review of the film, be sure to check it out! For any and all Star Wars fans!
Movie was great. Awesome set pieces were awesome but some of the screenplay and interactions between characters were disjointed and the ending battle put me off for how easily they beat Kylo. And that ending wtf.. For 20seconds you see Rei standing their handing luke his lightsabre. Both the main protagonists were greats. Jokes were good. It was a great start to another trilogy.
+Quinn C Unless you were one of the people who hated the EU retcon in which case you're not going to love Force Awakens
ikr so much better
+DickChappy agreed!
TRIVIA: Snoke was actually the nickname of none other than AL CAPONE! He also had a huge scar on his face and was a powerful leader of an "evil" empire. MIND FUCKING BLOWN!
Lol nice. now i want to se snoopy tallk like a gangster, see?
Snork's goal is to end the prohibition of death sticks across the galaxy
+Sam Carver and he wants to achieve that with a deathstar
+Jon Kline nice profile pic bro
nice
"Keep your bad guys around for the whole trilogy" - This aged badly lmao
Wait, Rey being the Force-sensitive one was a surprise? Are you seriously serious? It was obvious. Why? Because she was living on a desert planet. Duh.
And I almost burst out laughing when Kylo Ren took off his helmet. That goddamn hair. Apparently the dark side means no hair cuts.
+crzymn246 Hey!....I love Kylo Ren's face just the way it is. I wasn't the least bit disappointed that his face was perfectly normal and not scarred. n fact, I think the long hair gives him some humanity Adam Driver's face is lacking in reality (lol)
I can't be the only one who thinks Kylo ren looks like an effeminate, beardless Jon Snow
+crzymn246
He kinda looks like One Direction's star going bad.
right? like i'm not even the biggest star wars follower and even i saw that coming clear as day lol.
Maybe because the trailers and posters had Finn with Luke Skywalkers light sabre...
"Nothing But Star Wars" needs to be an official song by now.
+Peter Camie It's based on an SNL skit with Bill Murray.
Bill Murray did this years ago.
videosift.com/video/Bill-Murray-as-the-lounge-singer-Nick-Winters-from-SNL
+Peter Camie It is, its an old Bill Murray SNL sketch.
Jeremy didn't make up the song, Bill Murray did..
Here's the deal. Rey is Luke's daughter. It's the only thing that makes any sense. How could she be a Solo? Leia and Han would of known her. She's been to that island before because Kylo Ren read her mind about the "ocean" and an "island". Plus the developers or whatever of the movie said it's going to be revolved around the Skywalker family. I think she was trained before in the same Jedi temple Kylo Ren was in (then when she fought Kylo her training was coming back to her). Then Luke wiped her mind so she wouldn't have to be worried all the time and dropped her off on Jakku (as we saw her in the visions being dropped off as a little kid then the ship flew away) to protect her from the Knights of Ren or Kylo Ren. I also think he shut off R2D2, actually I take that back I KNOW he shut off R2 because in the visions we saw it showed Luke putting his hand on R2 then R2s light turned from green to red (or off) and I believe he made R2 not turn on until he sensed Rey come around or sense her force (which when she came around R2 turned on) Also Maz was telling her that the lightsaber calls to her (which was also Lukes, and Anakins lightsaber, which it would only make sense if it passed down to her if she was a skywalker too) and the force. Then to top it off which pretty much almost proves it, when she picked the lightsaber up out of the snow with the force it started playing Luke's theme song. The only other thing that it could be is Rey just has some random parents ( which it can't be either because these movie's are suppose to be revolved around the Skywalker family) AND Rey is like super strong with the force, so is Luke, Plus the way Luke looked at her at the end was kind of like a "I haven't seen you in a really long time" look. Just my 2 cents.
+shnoopy doopy Luke Skywalker dropped his 5 years old daughter to a shitty planet filled with thugs without finding her a proper parents while he HIMSELF is hiding in a beautiful planet. What a brilliant father is. What is even better is that Luke Skywalker just erased Rey's memory cuz....???? I dunno so that Rey becomes more vulnerable to the First Order cuz everyone knows Rey is Luke's daughter but she doesn't know that. The First Order and Resistance army only cared about finding Luke Skywalker. Why is Luke's daughter completely left out if she even existed? Rey having flashbacks with Luke's lightsaber does not mean that she is Luke's daughter. I mean did you see Luke having any flashbacks when he first hold Anakin's lightsaber in The New Hope? It was Rey's destiny to be a Jedi and there is only person who can be her master, Luke Skywalker. The Force and Maz guided Rey to find Luke Skywalker. Luke's theme was played randomly in the movie. It was also played when Finn was about to fight the stormtrooper with the Luke's lightsaber.
RookieN08 Erased her memory so she didn't have to remember all the bad crap that happened and so she wouldn't have to think about Luke all the time, it might sound like a little stretch but Istill think it's very possible he wiped her mind. I mean then explain why Kylo Ren could see an ocean and an island in her mind, it's obviously referring to where Luke is, also why did he shut off R2 and then Rey comes around he turns back on? Also why did she kick Kylo Rens ass? Idk I believe she was trained by Luke (her father when she was very young) and that's why she beat kylo. I'm sure someone else could explain this theory a lot better than I can but I still almost feel it's a given that she's Luke's daughter.
I was thinking she was cloned from Luke's hand by the Empire and was later found by the Alliance as a child in an old, defunct cloning facility.
I'd like to believe she is the granddaughter of Obi Wan
Gared Stark oh interesting
*Lando walks up to Kylo Ren in Episode VIII*
"Hello, what have we here? Ben Solo, you've been a bad boy."
"BEN IS GONE!"
*stabs Lando through the heart*
*Lobot yells like a Wookiee and shoots Kylo Ren in the face*
Totally gonna happen.
*Proceeds to freeze him in carbonite*
Chewie , Leia and Lando can give kylo a long speech about not killing your own father.
Do you know that "Lobot" means Anus in my language..
You can watch Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) full movie here *netfullmovies(dot)pw/star-wars-the-force-awakens-2015-full-movie/.* Thanks, Theo.
benedict joel and what language do you speak
Kylo ren wants to kill snoke... He was like "the light is nice and good, but lets face it.. The only way to be powerfull enought to kill a sith lord is going full dark side"... He is diving in the dark side and hating every minute of it... He is trying to bring balance to the force...This is the darth vader's job he wants to finish...
Now, *this*- is something I can get behind.
Wow that sounds pretty damn interesting, it'd be one hell of a twist
+fndalves I think that was what Luke was/is doing but when he was teaching his students Kylo (Ben) realizes he favors the darkside and kills all the padawans and leaves Luke.
+fndalves Which is probably why Snook only talks to him via hologram, LOL!
I really like this idea. Making Kylo like an unsung hero fighting fire with fire.
man, star wars got spoiled for me through google auto finishing my searches. i put in "why did" and then google spit out "han solo die". needless to say i was sad.
+Sherb The Superb thats awful to hear
I had it worse. I joined a game, and someone typed in caps that Kylo Ren was Han Solos son, and he kills him in the movie. I was like "well then, fuck you".
☁Republic☁
i tried so hard to avoid spoilers, dicks will be dicks
I actually saw that on Google before I watched the movie but I just thought it was fake so I just had in mind that Han didn't die. And then he died.
+Dennis Edgar (The Edgar Channel) I did the same exact thing you did bro
Alright who wants to bet that captain phasma has some relation to boba fett
I was picking up some Fett a Vibes from Captain Plasma too.
especially saying because the look cool and then do nothing of note the entire movie
+Jesse Randle Though if not for phasma the villains had a much better chance of actually winning. She must be a really bad trooper (like ptsd finn) who surrended everything the first chance she got. Fett...had bad luck
NephritduGrey Exactly. I always call these characters the Mr.Magoo of the Star wars universe. Like they get really lucky and get to power but when it's time to step up they crumble. I know their gonna have her doing something of note next movie such as capture or turture Finn. And Boba Fett will probably look strong in the Rogue 1 movie because I believe he's in it and they well finally have a chance to make these characters not wack. Either way I'll still make fun of them
+James Gillam Please don't. That would just be a cheap nostalgia bone.
watching this now is both incredibly depressing and hilarious
Personally after watching the movie, I'm convinced that Snoke is none other than Lord Plagueis the Wise himself, resurrected by his own power as previously theorized by many.
+XMelkorBauglirX I could not agree more! it makes perfect sense
+DISTURBED702 Yep I posted a theory above. I reckon he is DP for sure. It would make so much sense given how he treats Kylo Ren at the start and at the end of the movie.
Palpatine killed him tho he says that he can stop ppl from dieing not resurrect the dead
Palpatine kinda mocks him saying all tgis power but could not safe himself
Gerber Avilos he could have easily tricked Palpatine into thinking he was dead. He may not have brought himself back to life till after Palpatine was dead as well
Look, fact is we only know of Plagueis because Palpatine mentions him to Anakin. We don't hear of him anywhere else other than the movie. I don't know about you but it kinda tickled my curiosity to know more about him as I'm sure it did to others. I'm pretty sure that was the intention.
Furthermore, there is no way of verifying his death at the hands of Palpatine other than taking Palpatine's own word for it.
Little problem there however, Palpatine was an extremely powerful Sith Lord, a master of manipulation and an expert at twisting the truth.
So, now that the Jedi with the exception of Luke and maybe Lea are no more, both Vader and Palpatine (Palpatine having already fulfilled his part) are dead, it would be the perfect time to take hold of his "New Order" as he had planed from the get go and strike at a severely weakened Resistance therefore gaining total and complete VICTORY.
Makes perfect sense to me :)
I thought Phasma was thrown in a trash chute a la Death Star. Did I miss something? Because I thought the last we see of her in the movie is when Han suggests death by trash compactor.
It's assumed all the bad guys escaped the planet
yea they prob put her in there but never confirms if they actually kill her
+TheAz943 They are bringing her back to the sequels so it's probably going to be explained that she survived.
+Honesthedgehog Life yeah, how did they do that again? I'm assuming they had some star destroyers lying around but I never saw them
+TheAz943 But... why wouldn't they?
I loved how Luke never spoke a single word.... and had the most powerful scene in the whole movie!! Yeah. The man tears were in full force there~ =,)
+TazarZero And it also finally makes sense as to why we never see him in the trailers except for his mech-hand on R2... because he's not in the movie at ALL except for the last bit!!
+E3_Smasher inc
it's a spoiler review.
I would really say he had the most powerful scene in the film, a good one? Yeah. But not the most powerful, to me there were so many others
+E3_Smasher inc It's a spoiler video... He said spoilers allowed.
+TazarZero I teared up aswell. This movie for me is comparable to Empire strikes back for which i'll be eternaly gratefull to J.J, Daisy, old cast and rest of new cast. A++ material.
Till this day, we dont know who TF snoke is man
We do now
So? Who the fuck was the Emperor in ROTJ? He wasn't important.
Kevin Strom we already know who the emperor is, unlike snoke he actually got development through out the 2 trilogies. We don't know jack shit about snoke other than he was made by palpatine.
@@kaiiheenjik1668 I said in return of the jedi...you know...when the OG trilogy came out. He was just an evil dude who stood there. And that was fine...he wasnt important to the story they were telling.
The prequels ruined that.
@Miguel Mauro Okay. Don't care. My point still stands and is 100% valid. Who Snoke was is in no way important, he was a story telling device to help further along Kylo...an actual main character. Much like the Emperor was for Vader in OT.
Don't know why you're talking about the EU at all, it has nothing to do with this topic.
I just think it's kind of weird that my name is mentioned everywhere...
Lol.
+Hans Zhang LOL Hans Olo
Can't believe no one has mentioned the fight between that stormtrooper and fin.
+Sean Jordan It was pretty cool. To be honest though, I feel like that should have been Captain Phasma (aside from getting shot afterwards, or at least surviving). That could have been a great, little taste of how badass she could have been going up against a lightsaber with a unique melee weapon.
Still a cool scene though.
Kiyosuki yes exactly
+Sean Jordan I wished that Stormtrooper would have had some insignia or obvious "ranking officer" garb on. He was the most badass of any Stormtrooper in the movie!
Intense fight
it should have been that stormtroopers that died on finn arm in which he survived that or phasma
And....its 2024 now...Mark Hamill was right...and nothing of this movie paid off 😢
I think the last scene with Rey and Luke might be my favorite scene in Star Wars. Everything about it is so beautiful, from the music to the cinematography to the acting. Such a good way to end the movie. I honestly would have been satisfied just seeing that after 30 years
It is definitely the best ending ever, the way it started with Rey's theme and turned into Luke's, and the fact that all the emotion was through acting and music blew me away.
+the arkhm knight Anakin and Vader are the same person
+the arkhm knight have you seen the movies? Anakin becomes Darth Vader in episode 3
+FeelsGoodMan Yeah, I didn't hate it, but I felt that it should've ended with a more stable shot.
The most beautiful thing about that scene was Luke's hair the force is strong with that hair let me tell you
The thing that really saddens me about Han Solo's death is that now there won't be a scene between Han and Luke, and that was what I wanted to see most in the new movies. I really loved their bromance in the trilogy.
+Bcatorze Luar they might do a flash back scene of them, possibly with events that led up to Ren's turnover to the darkside. But I agree, pretty sad there's no scenes of them together going forward in the story.
+Mikki Vidamo something tells me harrison ford has had his closure with han solo and is done.
+Bcatorze Luar they said that all of the cast will come back for ep. 8... Harrison Ford might be there but I don't know how
+Karl Beltran (FartsieOwl) When he fell I thought either he is dead or he will come back stronger, wiser and whiter. Lets hope it's the latter.
Bcatorze Luar Lets hope for that I agree XD
Oh this movie had so much potential. Look how happy Jeremy was :(
You mean this trilogy. This movie was good.
@Palider Debatable. A lot of people don’t like the movie, myself included
@@Aelfraed26 nope it was all trash.
I think it is significant that you never mentioned Starkiller base and only talked about the characters all the way through. People who say this movie is just a copy-paste of A New Hope seem to only focus on a couple of key similarities between the two plots without realizing that what really drives these movies and differentiates them is the character development.
+Sébastien Laberge Yeah,that's what I thought too.The main thing wasn't to destroy the base,but to save Rey and while doing that destroy Starkiller base.I think it differs in a few ways from A New Hope and IMO they did well to play it safe cause what we needed was a Star Wars movie that's good and now that they've done it they can try new stuff out in the upcoming movies.
Thats honestly the problem i have with it. It feels pointless, take it out of the movie and its the same just no explosion at the end
+stonercartoon Remember that the central narrative thread in this movie is the search for Luke, not the attempt to destroy Starkiller base. Starkiller base is there to demonstrate the evil ambition of the First Order and to create tension in the third act, but its destruction (by implosion instead of explosion) isn't the movie's final goal. The true climax of the movie is when Rey finally finds Luke.
***** Yep,exactly.
That is 2 comments of yours that I have read and have aggreed with
Anyone else seeing some kind of connection/similarity with Maz and Yoda? Ive seen it three times already (you're welcome Disney) and she 1.) is very old. 2.) appears to be very wise 3.) she knows the force but is no Jedi
4.) how the hell did she get that lightsaber
+blackout betty That's clearly a story for another time.
+blackout betty she is the most annoying character there
+blackout betty They were clearly trying to make her Yoda for the next generation. I hate her character design though. Her and Snoke were the ugliest things about this movie.
Brian C So Snoke is supposed to be some beautiful creature? He's a fucking Sith Lord, they're all ugly when they've spent that much time with the Dark Side
It isn't that he's ugly. I'm fine with Palpatine, and Vader without the mask. It's that the character design is boring generic cg, and looks out of place with the rest of the film--excluding that orange thing.
In my opinion the light saber gift was the best next to the fight between Luke and Vader in Return of the Jedi. I loved its grit. I loved how you could feel the danger of that weapon in a way none of the other fights did. And the snow made it look amazing!
*Fight
this is just heartbreaking
Worst character was that Scottish guy who wanted money from Han. Really pulled me out of the movie for a couple of minutes.
Best character imho was Rey. I was very impressed with her performance.
Damn good Star Wars movie
+uberd0gAlpha They cut the scene where Chewbacca rips off that Scottish guy's arm
mikepwilliams-uk.tumblr.com/post/135589425979/star-wars-the-force-awakens-gruesome-chewbacca
Yes! That scene and the Scottish guy was really out of place, it really didn't feel right.
His accent was very distracting, still, it was a fun scene
+uberd0gAlpha yes and gwendoline christie...i taught she mattered to the female audience everywhere..but no shes just a throw away character...also like those two indonesian action stars that came out of nowhere along with the scottish guy...i guess star wars needed the "whos who in show biz at the moment" now...
+morning morality the only Scottish accent in a galaxy far far away. Yeah, i know, everyone else is either American or English, but that's precisely why the only Scottish accent felt so out of place.
Did anyone else cringe when Rey was flying the Falcon and she kept crashing it into the ground?
haha yeah I was like "dude be careful"
Espically when she called it a piece of trash too?
Yes, it's the same feeling I get whenever someone touches the shiny bit of a disc
+Ray Dioaktivman Please don't try to start another Mary Sue argument. Her dialogue and background heavily hint at the fact that she's well able to pilot a ship
+Ray Dioaktivman What she did daily for a living was literally scavenging spaceships/fighters and other transports. She could probably build a spaceship from scratch and you think she wouldn't know how to pilot one? Please...
Seen it 3 times and loved it more each time. Adam Driver is my favorite part of the film. For me, the movie really hits another gear emotionally once he removes his mask for the first time. At that point, he's humanized and you can really settle into this next trilogy being about him and Rey. I think there are 2 lines that lay that out:
Leia (in ref to Kylo) - "Bring our son home."
Snoke (in ref to Rey) - "Bring her to me".
That sets the course of the trilogy right there. I've seen people complain about Kylo being a disappointing villain. To that I say, Kylo isn't the villain. He's the character in distress that needs to be saved. They give you 2 scenes that really present that:
The scene where he's earnestly praying to Vader's helmet for guidance, and the scene where he tells Han, "I'm being torn apart. I want this pain to go away." Kylo feels hurt, rejected, insecure, bitter, angry, and inferior. Remember, in the OT, first Leia needed to be saved (New Hope)... then Han (Empire/Jedi)... then Vader (Jedi). At the end of TFA, everyone is safe... except Kylo. He's the only Skywalker family member still "in the wind" so to speak.
That said, Snoke is the main villain. Like Vader in RTOJ, Kylo really isn't a villain at all. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if they introduce another villain in the next installment. Another saber wielder, who's in Snokes good graces.
The attempt at Kylo's salvation is a story I'm looking forward to seeing. I've seen people argue that Kylo has made the final decision to the dark side in TFA, and that he's too far gone. Let's remember that Anakin did arguably worse by killing a room full of "younglins" and murdering his best friend before he ultimately turned back to the light.
We can assume Leia most certainly still wants her son to be brought home, and I don't see Luke being quick to go out and kill his own nephew. Also, i just don't think our storytellers here will really let a Skywalker relative go without being redeemed. Also let us not forget that the 2nd film is were we always get the big twist/reveal. It's still coming! Super excited to see the Rian Johnson take!
Agree man. Adam Driver killed it. Definitely the best character. Rey was great too. But damn, Driver delivered.
+Jejuan Guillory
Adam Driver as Kylo Ren was the least interesting, most boring, least compelling character I have seen in Star Wars. People complain about the supposedly weak acting in the prequels and yet you think he's great even though he never once changes his blank expression? WTF?
+Ikrani did u even watch the Han Solo death scene....
I think in the next movies we are going to see Kylo try to kill Rei instead of bringing her to snoke, because Kylo knows why snoke wants her, and he will be afraid that snoke will replace him with a new student.
+Ikrani
Honestly, I think he did a great job giving us grounded performance of a tortured young man.

The dark side
Really enjoyed the movie! Just got back from watching, there are a lot of amazing scenes and shots. The humor is well integrated and doesn't feel forced.
However, there is ONE really, really big issue that I had with the movie from start to finish. So the opening scene with the village is Finn's first mission and only as he watches one of his fellow brothers die, just shot, he decides to quit. So obviously he has a dislike for killing and feels sympathy for the other Stormtroopers, I mean, he was one of them afterall, he knows what they went through. So for the rest of the movie he and the rest of the cast go on a murderous rampage against Stormtroopers - without Finn doing so much as batting an eye. There was so much potential there for a character that is against the killing but nope, just freed this Resistance Pilot I've never met before and gonna go ahead and shoot up an entire hangar of my brothers/sisters...
+DerLoladin It is indeed an awesome idea, he would become a conflicted character instead of a comedy relieve. But that would clash with Kylo Ren character (and many others), there would be too many characters with emotional issues, the movie would become too "heavy", you know? No fun allowed.
I think that the bloody hand in the mask is something alluding to the overall idea of slaughter. The First Order is ruthless in this movie, you can teel. If their leaders are not menacing, at least the destruction they bring is convincing (unlike the originals who had great leaders, but the army was weak). The Stormtrooper don't have this relationship of brothers/sisters, after all these non-cloned troopers are trained from birth to become cannon folders. Finn is a really nice character on his own right, the marketing of the movie completely fooled us to think that he would be this deep and heroic character.
Rafael Teles
Most of the characters in the movie have a very smooth prorgession, a bit obvious at times, but smooth. Not so with Finn, he goes from being Stormtrooper to "I hate war" to "Yeah lets fuck em up!" in a matter how minutes - wait, what?!
It just felt so disconnecting from the movie. Finn is still a great character who is very well acted, i just felt the script could have been...more.
DerLoladin I think the intention was to make Finn instant likable, you know... Somehow similar to Han Solo in the classic trilogy. The character does nice and relatable things all the time, its easy to connect him with the audience. He shooting those weapons like a over excited kid is somehow, I believe, the same reaction that most persons would have in his shoes. He is totally made to make us feel relatable to him.
The marketing lures us to believe that Finn would ended up being the "Luke" of this new saga. Poe would be obviously the new Solo and Rey was a mystery either way, a scavenger is far to be a princess (she is the best character by far). In the end, the guy with the lightsaber, the most highlighted character on the trailers ended up being the comedy relieve. This was genius in my opinion. The script is somehow weak, like you said, even if the movies strictly describes the character as a coward, he could ended up being more developed. But I think his final purpose to be super relatable was done successfully.
Rafael Teles
I'm curios as to where they intend to go with the characters in the following movies. While I still think that Finn was the weakest part of the movie, because he got shafted by the script, I'm curios as to where he will go and how he will develop over the next 2 movies.
Still, while he was the "comedy part" (at times more funny at others less), it fitted nicely. The character I'm most intruiged by is definitly Ray, very well played, amazing scenes, amazing dialogue...all in all a great character.
I swear to god, if they killed Captain Phasma though...
DerLoladin I think JJ Abrams made a double joke with that garbage compactor reference. One is the obvius nostalgia, but two was the notion that a visually badass character would be Boba Fetted on that compactor. Well, no... She will not die in a ridiculous fashion like Boba, lol, Phasma is confirmed on episode VIII =)
Jeremy, you didn't mention the ending!!! What was your opinion on Rey finding Luke in Scotland??
*Ireland
+lovablesnowman Japan
+ZEGS i
Iceland. My girlfriend watched it with me and she lives there for a while. She has actually been to the place where Luke was at.
+Ryan Goheen That scene was filmed at Skellig Michael Monastery island in Ireland.
+damienlucifuge Yeah it's so cool. I was watching it like "been there,climbed that,sat there".Broke the immersion mind you bit still
A shame that people are already nitpicking this movie for being too much like the originals, like seriously?
True, but.... it is. I mean, droid with secret information has to traverse a desert planet to keep it away from the evil group lead by the sith in a voice-modulating mask. Droid runs into an orphan who is more powerful with the force than he/she knows and they escape with a new, slightly dishonest ally aboard the millennium falcon. Falcon gets pulled in by a tractor beam, fast forward, force-user encounters his/her father's lightsaber (presumably), fast forward, bad guys blow up planet(s) with their big ball weapon, fast forward, main characters travel to the good guys' base of operations on a forresty planet and go over the blueprints of the big ball weapon, a plan involving blowing up some sort of exhaust port or something is formed and the X-wings go out to attack. While the female protagonist is being tortured for the information the droid has, the sith guy feels a presence he's not felt since-- The old guy confronts the sith guy because they have history and he gets killed in full
view of the young heroes (who scream and make their presence known to the stormtroopers). After the good guys' best pilot makes a trench run and blows up the thingy, he and the remaining X-wings and the falcon high-tail it out of their as the big ball weapon explodes behind them. Oh and a bad guy refuses to evacuate the big ball weapon in their moment of triumph even though someone brings up a good point that they'll probably die.
Oh poor star wars that is only going to make 3 billion dollars...
+RiceDuke It's not nitpicking. It's extreme. It's so damn close that once I caught on I literally guessed every single thing that would happen next, scene by scene, and I was right every time.
it literally is.
I still don't get why people hate this film. I understand why they disliked The Last Jedi, But this movie doesn't deserve to suffer from the backlash of its sequel.
The Star Wars world felt a lot more grittier, colder and more sorta emotional if you get what I mean. I really didn't mind that Luke was hardly in the movie and it made me feel a lot more suspicious about him which I loved
Han Solo is definitely one of the best parts of this movie and his death was spoiled before I watched it but I still felt very shocked and I was very angry when Kylo killed him and felt justice when Rey stood up to him
+SpeedDemon1152 Sorry to hear that it got spoiled man. Wish you got to experience it for yourself and yeah i get you, in my opinion kylo ren is better than vader! He has more personality etc
+SpeedDemon1152 It's really crazy how similar Force Awakens is to A New Hope, while still being its own movie.
I loved that Luke was treated like this myth and I was so happy to see him in the end. I was worried that they'd leave us hanging right when Rei lands on that island.
also in this movie it wasn't a ton of walking and talking and Senate meetings like in the prequels. it was action packed and a good amount of exposition left out of it
+OnlyRoke they couldnt leave us hanging even if they wanted to, they announced Mark Hamill was in the film. They would get a load of backlash if they lied..........
i really wish rey have no ties to the solos,skywalkers or the kenobi,if she does,it would be one family fucking up the galaxy with their drama
+Adam Mikhail Isn't that the way it's always been?
+Luna Kelly hahhahahahhah
+Adam Mikhail That's kinda the point of the saga, even if you just count the originals
Well it could also go to sidious and other siths before them.
+Adam Mikhail but thats basically star wars in a nutshell. this family lineage of powerful force users fucks everything up
I would give the movie 8.5/10. I loved the characters and the humor, as well as the action sequences. The light saber fights were, although different, very cool. And my favorite character was Kylo Ren because he was so ruthless and angry, yet immature and vulnerable at the same time. Rey was a nice surprise for her to be a Jedi. She fits it pretty well.
Only thing I didn't like was Han Solo's death. Mostly because it was really obvious due to the fact that I knew he was Kylo's father half way through the movie, and it was too predictable. It was foreshadowed too much and didn't hit as hard. Still a good scene though
+Ryan Duncan How does you knowing that Kylo Ren is Hans son make his death predictable? And even if you did know it was still a really well written, tense, and extremely atmospheric scene. Just because I know that Darth Vader is Luke's father, it doesn't detract from the ending of empire strikes back.
+Michael McCallister I have to disagree, I'm not sure what it was about this moviebut it felt way to obvious before starkiller base that Han was going to die
+cjua2803 It could've been the large focus on him perhaps. They wanted to get as much of Harrison Ford as they could for his last appearance, but I still don't believe that it makes it bad necessarily that you predicted it.
+Michael McCallister well what was also bad is the relationship wasn't explored, instead of talking about their relationship like a father it was good vs evil i.e. snoke is using you
"theres a story on your face buddy"... that one hurt.
How did bb 8 get up the stairs?
+runningwithscizorz Magic.
Maybe his cables that he uses a few times...? Who knows lol
+runningwithscizorz His cables that he shoots out. :)
+runningwithscizorz how can RW get down stairs, droid logic
Hacks
Did you notice the grave that Luke was standing in front of on the island? Did he build one for Han after feeling his death? Or perhaps it was for Rey's mother?
might of been his wife and reys mother
It was for Jar Jar. That's why Luke was missing for decades. His father's dying wish was to hunt him down so that balance could be restored to the galaxy.
+SupplySide Jesus Then PLOT TWIST, Jar Jar survived in the form of Snoke
That's what I have been saying!!!!!!!!!! I think it's Luke's lover/Rey's mom whoever she was.
Didn't notice it, but the shot was filmed on Skellig Michael, UNESCO world heritage site, so maybe it was a real grave?
How if Luke had a kid he didn't know about? LIke his obsession with reforming the Jedi drove a wedge between him and his girlfriend. She goes and has a kid but doesn't tell him. She hides the kid on Jakku because Luke's enemies are after her but she can never go back for the kid because Snoke and Co. kill her. A little convoluted, but makes sense.
The way Rey talks about Jedi and Skywalker, "I thought he was a myth," might be from stories her mother told her when she was little before she was abandoned. Her mother intended her to meet her father at some point and was telling Rey stories of her father, but she never got a chance because Snoke was trying to sniff out Luke's weaknesses and kill Luke's former flame.
+mrskribble Knowing Star Wars, i completely believe this.
+mrskribble Only thing is... why didn't Leah who is very semi psychic regonize that she is related to her???
And what if Luke went into exile/self training after his wife/girlfriend was killed? That would give him good reason to try and stay away from his loved ones as him being there could lead to their deaths
+Maryam DiMauro - She is not semi-psychic but she is Force-sensitive, even though she was never truly trained int the ways of the Jedi or the Force itself. She also knew the moment when her husband, Han, died at the hand of their son. She also knew way back in episode V that Luke needed her to rescue him from the bottom of Bespin (Cloud City) after Vader cut off his hand. So therefore, Leia is Force-sensitive and has a sort of insight similar in the way yhat her brother, Luke and her father (Anakin / Vader) had.
+mrskribble Beautiful.
Its good to remember how we all drank the kool aid. But ultimately ended up being poison. I like watching this video and the batman vs superman announcement. The hype was definitely real..what coulda been...
Where the fuck is jar jar blinks just because he wasn't in one Star Wars movie doesn't mean he is dead. He was supposed to reveal himself as the real phantom menace just like today revealed himself as the most powerful Jedi. Disney and j.j Abrams you're breaking my balls here he better reveal himself as the real phantom menace sith in 8 fuck goddammit fuck....just..fuck I haven't been this mad since in atttack of the clones where George Lucas chickened out and decided not to reveal jar jar binks as a sith.
Fuck autocorrect ruined my whole rant fuck...just..fuck today means yoda
+Bork Lazor fuck you
+Bork Lazor Since Snoke is a hologram, he could always be Binks putting on an elaborate ruse.
Dzvfars Fdszvfvf Forget about the Binks shit, jesus haaha
+Jonny Cyanide stupid
I think Finn is jedi only that he will need training
Like Luke
They aren't going to make Fin a stormtrooper deserter a Jedi lol. GTFOH. Rey is the jedi not Fin.
+Connect_200 Why can't they both be jedi?
Connect_200 what's wrong with that? He deserted because he knew it wasn't right, he wanted to help people not kill innocent so he turned his back against evil and oppression and in The end he showed courage to fight back and save the one he cared for an even fought against a much superior foe and even if he was defeated he showed as much courage as any jedi would, now if that's not jedi enough for you i don't know what it wss
+ERc Pteco why the fuck would anyone need training... Kylo ren is a bitch, and mother fucking rey just uses the force without training. Guess luke Went to yoda without a reason... Tell me a single Point why ANYONE should train in this new universe?
After seeing it for the 3rd time tonight, I can see where it fits with the rest of the series. Here's how I rank the series now from best to worst:
1) The Empire Strikes Back
2) A New Hope
3) The Force Awakens
4) Return of the Jedi
5) Revenge of the Sith
6) The Phantom Menace
7) Attack of the Clones
Such a great movie. This will be a movie I watch over and over again just like the original trilogy
+ivanthelovehammer I'm still split on TFA. I'd rank them 5>4>6>7=3>1>2
+SilentTree 7=3? Thats awful! TFA was so much better than Hayden Christensens "From my point of view the jedi are evil"
+ivanthelovehammer why do people shit on return of the jedi so much? i'll never understand it. Is it because of the ewoks? The final scenes between Luke, Vader and the Emperor are probably the most important scenes in the SW's universe.
+PiedPixels more like: "From my point of view the younglings are evil"
Totally agree. Already seen it 4 times and this feels like a film I will enjoy for years and years to come! Can't wait to own it on DVD and stick it on every now and then and just enjoy it ! Just like I do with the OT
It being 2024 as I am watching this review, im very upset that your expectations were let down by The 2 movies that followed. I can tell you were genuinely excited as I was my brotha. They did us as an audience injustice to the franchise 😡
I think Snoke is the size of Yoda.
Yoda vs snoke !!
That would be Hilarious
+Marty McFly Yoda's dead, boi
Size matters not
I called that when I first saw him
Who else thinks Daisy Ridley stole the movie? Seriously, Rey is like this generation's Han, Luke and Leia all in one character.
not really. shes just a bad ass for the sake of feminism. I dont mind but its obvious. Fin has the humor and poe has the charisma and charm.
I think Oscar Isaac/poe dameron is the Han, Adam driver/kylo ren is the Darth Vader and daisy ridley is Luke and Leia. John boyega/Finn will hopefully be the lando.
She didn't steal anything. She was ok.
leo50perez I think you just nailed the character analysis ;)
I agree
my spoiler free comment is this:
The Force Awakens is A New Hope just jumbled up and scrambled up a bit.
Now Spoilers Follows:
STAR WARS.... ohh STAR WARS... Wonderful Star Wars...
Please do not read until u see Star Wars A FORCE AWAKENS. I loved the movie, but I am going to nit pick it a bit...
Now My spoilers:
A New Hope Force Awakens
Storm Troopers check Slightly different Storm Troopers, check.
Main Sith Villain in black Main Sith Villain in black.
Cute Robot lost in the Desert Cute Robot lost in the Desert, check
Robot somehow finds main hero Main Heroine finds cute robot, check

Rebels at a Jungle Planet Insurgents/Republic/Resistance at a jungle planet, check (was kind of confused on what to call them)
Death Star Star killer a planet that destroys planets and suns, check.
Death Star shoots ONE time and kills a planet Star killer fires successfully once.
Main hero is force sensitive The main heroine is force sensitive.
Main Hero needs an older experienced guide to the Death Star Same thing but its Han now.
Heroes use the force to trick Storm troopers Heroine with no training in the force, does it too - check.
Vader and Empire troops have a hologram emperor to talk to The bad guys talk to their bad guy over holograms.
The rebels throw a few fighters together to destroy the Death Star SAME THING (But only X-WINGS, did JJ lose the rights to the Y-Wings, A wings, B wings, or new ships)?
The good guys can not escape the Death Star until an old war hero dies Han replaces Obi wan, now - check.
After seeing Obi Wan die they escape the death star on the falcon a few scene later, pfft.
The Rebels have to attack a single point on the death star to win same thing, a bit larger - but what ever
A single rebel fighter eventually destroys the Death Star Once an opening happens, a single x-wing destroys the Star killer.
Awards Ceremony XXXXXX ok.. it did not end the same way.
Why was the Republic called Insurgents/Republic/Resistance at different parts of the movie... confused me. The Movie never explained. I can theorize but... yeah... the MOVIE did not explain.
So, if the Starkiller planet destroyer used up a sun.. how did it get another sun to use up for the second shot... SCIENCE! The Laser blasts were traveling to another system or the same system..? How can a laser/beam weapon move to so many solar systems in such a short amount of time and still be within eye sight of the heroes?
Nitpicking but basically this was Star Wars A New Hope as told to 2015 audience called Force Awakens the MOVIE by JJ.
Kylo isn't a Sith
+BoydofZINJ Still better than ANH
Good points
Kylo ren isn't a sith
+BoydofZINJ Not only New Hope, the entire original trilogy. With the scene Han Solo dying, it is totally Empire Strikes Back. And Luke showing up in the end, The Return of The Jedi.
Watching this in the future after The Rise of Skywalker is heart breaking! 💔
So did literally nobody else spot the gravestone next to Luke???
+Billy Jeffs I did but i have no idea who was buried under it ;/
+Secret FBI Agent Hopefully the 3 prequels.
Trollimus Prime Haha nice one ;) Now when you think about it, it might by Jar Jar and Luke was pissing on his gravestone right before Rey came to him and he was like "Oh shit i hope she didn't see that"
Could be Rey's mother
my friend pointed it out to me, and my 2nd viewing I forgot to look for it lol bc I was just in awe as I was the first time
