Saw it two days ago... took the kids... now that I have had a while to consider the movie... IT SUCKED!

George? George Lucas is that you? You moved to Winnipeg?

 

I have been revealed.

 

It's tragic what Disney has done to Star Wars.

 

Then again, I made 4 billion dollars in the deal.

 

Should I laugh, or should I cry?

 

Hmmm...

Lucas' bitching about this movie is very telling, who would have thought that selling the baby to the white slavers at Disney would be the best thing possible to Star Wars.

I've seen it 4 times so far, it really gets better the more you watch it. Remember, it's been 10 years. It's a lot harder to just jump into something with wild abandon. It was like this when TPM came out in 99 too. Unfortuantely The Prequels pretty much fell on everything, where this does not. There's a reason it's gonna knock Titanic and Avatar off, because it's good.

 

My third time was also better than the first two. It's incredible. Heard Alec's voice for the first time. Yoda too!

I know this movie will be ripped for being a copy cat film of A New Hope but as a guy who has seen all 7 films in the theater I love the nostalgia!

A good summary of Lucas being a bitch:

 

http://io9.gizmodo.c...-abo-1750464055

 

One of Lucas' comments presciently describes the big flaw with the film:

 

"I never got to be blown away by the big ship coming over the thing, or anything. But this time I’m going to be, because I have no idea what they’re doing."

 

Sorry George, the first scene was identical to ANH, with a big ship coming over the thing.

Most/all start the same way, and that's the way it should be.

Were you hoping for a pre-teen driving a convertible off a cliff with background music provided by the Beasties? I was kind of thinking it was going to happen but I'm glad it didn't.

Actually, yes! That would have been pretty cool.

So I suppose the license plate on that convertible would be THX 138?

I listened closely for the voices in Rey's first Force vision, but I could barely make out anything. My hearing is not as good as it used to be. I did hear Alec Guinness' voice, though.

 

All the technical criticisms that have been debated here were non-existent to me. The Starkiller Base was more plausible to me this time. It could have used singularity or warp field technology to consume an entire star's energy and hold it in its core......and then fire upon a planet via hyperspace. This is science FICTION, as we all know..... :)

 

Kylo Ren was wounded and emotionally spent when he fought Finn and Rey. It made perfect sense, at least to me, that he had a bit of trouble fighting Finn. He was pounding on himself to stay focused; I missed this subtle little part the first time. Rey was brilliant as she intinctively used the Jedi tactic of calming herself and focusing her new power - against the Stormtrooper guard and especially when fighting Ren.

 

The periods of silence were more profound this time as well. The non-verbal interactions between Rey and Ren, Leia and Han, Han and Ren, Leia and Rey, and finally betweeen Luke and Rey. It's definitely a change from the talky films of the original triolgy. A GOOD change!
