Quote from: barbarian on 12 January 2016, 09:44:57 AMSo : What if they didn't spend the whole movie telling us who Kylo Ren is and just brought us to the bridge scene without any info.
It would have been wonderful : "Wait, how does he knows hi name ? Wait, WTF ?"

Now THAT would have been awesome.
Well that went down like a lead baboon......

Wouldn't that then have been another rip-off from episode V - "No Han, I am your son!"

Seems like a bit of over analysis here! Only two questions need answering:

Was it like the first three picture made? Answer: Yes!

Was it like  the second three pictures made? Answer:  No!

Result!   :D :D :D :D

No because the protagonists would have know, but not Rey and Finn and us.

Like all the second part of the film.

One of the major sin for me is the fact that they made the all new "cantina" with practival effects and the main character, Orange Yoda, with CGI : it is like the only CGI character in the middel of all the "real" stuff, it is ugly.

The more i think about this film, the more angry I become.

Calm down - it is impossible to please all the people......etc. At least we were spared  Jaja Binks (Binx ?). Can't even remember the name - but who cares, it's just a bit of fun and keeps Disney flush.

There is nothing much wrong with the prequels, apart from a certain actor and fandom whining.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Anyone watch 'Once Upon A Time'? There are practitioners of light and dark magic. Users of light magic can be tempted to use dark magic, but it can have dire effects on their character. Now I wonder where that plot idea came from?

Pretty much every folklore with magic on the planet. Dark magic is more powerful but more dangerous, is a common theme. .

So now we know where Star wars got the idea as well.

I don't think there's anything really original nowadays.....All the 'ideas' are variations of various themes from the past.

I liked it.

But, i approached it in the mindset of: nothing can be like the original ones.

If you look at it like that, it works.

Always go into a movie thinking "This will be awful."

Then anything is better than your expectations!
