Something to look out for in the DVD, like spotting Stan Lee and Hitchcock in their films.

Hmmm, Stan Lee is never hard to spot.

Cheers, Martyn

TBH I missed him in The Incredible Spiderman and also in The Wolverine.

Which one was captain Phasma?


The whopping great Storm Trooper in all the chrome clobber  :D Or, Brienne if you've watched Game of Thrones?
Well that went down like a lead baboon......

See what you mean. Thought she looked much more like Darth Vader than Solo's son. Maybe they're saving her up for the next outing. She is very good as Brienne.

I think it really was a poor film.
It builds up good then there is a real rythme problem.
SPOILERS ahead.















So : 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 ?"
Instead, it sounds like a film for mental challenged young children where they have to explain everything.

The scene with the hologram showing you how bigger the new super weapon is compared to the old one ? Really ? Some guy spend some time displaying an hologram to say : "Look, it is 10 times bigger than the old one ?"

The "aircraft' battles are nice but I really feel they raped my childhood.

Now THAT would have been awesome.

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.
