3/10, uttter garbage.

Anyone that says different is a fucking mindless consumer, a Redditor, a feminist, or a child/manchild.

Nothing about this was good. It was a remake of ANH. The characters were forced. Acting sucked. The villain was a little bitch, and his "crossguard" lightsaber was literally the most retarded thing I have ever seen. It felt like a Marvel movie. It had a cliffhanger ending with 10 unanswered question by the end. Rey was a fucking Mary Sue.

>Implying the prequels were bad
Episode 1 was a 5.7/10. Episode 2 was a 7.2/10. Episode 3 was an 8/10.
>buh buh the acting wuz SHITTT!!!
hello Reddit! It was actually nuanced and if you can't see that you have no place here. I was not the best, but the actors all played their roles decently well.
The overarching story was one of the best I've seen. The movies were on par with the originals, which are honestly overrated desu.

Can you remember anything from TFA? No. Plain looking cast, stupid plot. Terrible, and if you say different, you again have no place here.

What the fuck did i just watch? no seriously, what the fuck?

i dont know where to start with this monstrosity of a flick. if it wasn't for the obvious faces and lightsabers it would just be the usual high budget flick with the thinking that fancy effects and explosions will make a 'movie' good. fucking wrong.

i couldnt tell if it was at the start, beginning or end due to the lack of structure and plot - infact im still struggling to see what the plot was? the whole thing dragged out to see some old fuck standing on the cliffs - greeeaat.

what really fucking me off was how they mocked the dark side to be a laughing stock. that pathetic joke making the clone troopers run away when kylo was throwing a tantrum.
-kylo was meant to be the evil sith boss but actually got KILLED by a girl using a lightsaber for the FIRST FUCKING TIME. the fucking dindu put up a good fight, they both have zero fucking knowledge in using one, let alone the force in general. what the fuck?
how can anyone possible criticise the prequels with pieces of liberal shit like this one? there were no characters in TFA with any presence, or something that made you think 'wow i like this guy'. the prequels had mace windu, anakin, obi wan, darth vader, darth maul, etc. what did this one have? the characters were fucking dull as fuck, im actually angry as im typing this i just cant get over what i just watched and i need to vent it somewhere.

trust disney to fuck up this bad. i dont even need to mention (but i will anyway) the obvious racism with the dark side being all white, and the 'goodies' being a melting pot of spics, chinks, dindus, females etc. how can this racism even be allowed?

sadly ticket sales determine the success of a film, and so people will feel obligated to think this flick was good but in reality it was tediously boring, which lacked a plot, characters with any redeeming qualities, and made the dark side a joke.

You got no reputation here, you got no name, you got jackshit here. It's survival of the fittest and you ain't gonna survive long on 4chan by saying stupid jokes that your little hugbox cuntsucking reddit friends would upboat. None of that here. You don't upboat. You don't downboat. This ain't reddit, kid. This is 4chan. We have REAL intellectual discussion, something I don't think you're all that familiar with. You don't like it, you can hit the bricks on over to imgur, you daily show watching son of a bitch. I hope you don't tho. I hope you stay here and learn our ways. Things are different here, unlike any other place that the light of internet pop culture reaches. You can be anything here.

You can literally divide Star Wars threads into "grew up with the prequels and have shit taste" and "grew up with the originals and have god-tier taste".

If you didn't like TFA, it's not that it's a bad movie, it's that the movie wasn't fucking made for you.

Seen it 3x, always in IMAX 3D. Seen it with two different groups of friends and my girlfriend. I bought the novelization, watching the camrip for the fourth time, already bought tickets to see it with my brother and his wife and kids for the 4th time.

Also so that you know, I saw it on the Thursday previews and Friday opening night, the entire theater burst out into full applause multiple times during the movie.

More like "grew up with Marvel movies and have shit taste" and "grew up more than 20 years ago and have some taste"

Went to the cinema with my father, who grew up with the originals (I did not but I watched them some years before Ep I was released) and we both thought it was a hack when we left the theater.

My friends thought the same too.

It's close to not even qualifying as Star Wars.

The biggest problem with TFA was the pacing.

With good pacing you could fix all the major problems like Rey being a Mary Sue, confusing plot and the likes by giving time for actual character development.

People keep saying Rey is a Mary Sue, but this doesn't feel like a feminist issue to me. All Star Wars characters are basically archetypal placeholders to move a greater story along, male and female. They've always been that way. And that's perfectly fine, they have never been films about character development.

This just proves TFA is literally JUST the type of rehash I was expecting, it's nothing but a glib facsimile.

If Star Wars was all I had access to as a child in terms of sci-fi I probably would become one of those crazy fanboys, but thankfully I had access to anime from very early on in my youth years that my mental balance is very stable.

Seriously, if you have watched Akira, you'd realize just how sophisticated anime is and it blows away anything Star Wars would have to offer.

A lot of people mention Ghost In The Shell, which has just enough of sexuality in the mix to draw in the western audience I suppose but I must say that Ghost In The Shell is not even in my top 10 anime, not even close, that's just how deep the world of anime is.

Some anime is so disturbingly mature like Fractale that I wish it would challenge the system and submit it as a Drama category in the Oscars just to bitchslap the snotty Academy.

It's not just the level of maturity and sophistication anime has, it's also quite original, entertaining, and visually fantastic. I would regard anime as the highest form of cinema art-form.

But hey, me preaching about anime won't do you any good, you gotta go out and see it for yourself just how much you are missing.

The recent one I would recommend to check out is Sword Art Online which is light and easy to get into anime for the first time yet appreciate it as much, but if you want the heavy stuff right off the line check out Guilty Crown in which the plot is so complex and twisted that you'll need extra oxygen pumped into your brain in order to comprehend everything, and if you want amazing visuals and a gripping drama that also has awesome mecha battles Aldnoah.Zero is the shit.

Seriously, if you know anime like I do, Star Wars looks like it's something for little kids.
>>
>>64128005
This. I host Star Wars parties all the time and OP would be thrown out within 5 minutes.
>>
For the most part I agree with OP except

Ep1 6/10 solid effort and pioneering new technology. Memorable soundtrack and decent acting

Ep2 2/10 uninteresting, bad acting, meh soundtrack. Overdid the CGI just a bit. Could have never been made and you would understand Ep 3 perfectly

Ep 3 6.5/10 Characters are cringe as fuck but I believe it. Much better saber battles and plot happens memorable soundtrack again.

Ep 7 is just... I don't know how to put it
Each of the new actors has their own acting style,
Boyega acts like he's doing a Play
Rey acts like she's doing a sitcom
Poe acts like he's in a 70's buddy cop show
Kylo acts like Linkin Park is his favorite band

Kylo is the only one that got it right AND HIS CHARACTER IS TERRIBLE. There is no meshing of styles or anything to make the dialog flow naturally it's just awkward and poor delivery from almost fucking everyone.

Plot is just shit written by a 5 year old so I'll spoil the next episode. Lukes students were manipulated by plaguis and became Knights of Ren. Each one has a Ren surname. Snoke is Darth Ren. Finn is under Snokes manipulation. Finn fucks up the rebellion. Rey comes back after training and frees finn from mind control. Finn reveals secret info for the next installment to happen.

Soundtrack is absolutely abysmal not even good.

Overall it is enjoyable but only a 6/10.

Why? Watch it first time in a theater because you can't wait for it to come on bluray, then experience it once again in bluray, alone, with no annoying people laughing / coughing and immerse yourself picking up details you couldn't pick before.

I think they were scared to try their own plot. Didn't want to risk being like the prequels so they went with what they knew worked. I hated it because of that. Another planet destroyer? God damn there were so many other possibilities

TFA is just an ANH remake with wacky references to the original trilogy to draw in older fans.

There's going to be a Death Star in episode 9. I can feel it.

I just got back from watching it.

Acting was ok, writing for literally everyone but the lead chick was ok, effects were slightly shit-but-not-that-shit-really, and the plot was decent, although a bit too fast.

But holy fuck, was Rei or whatever her name was annoying as fuck, and on top of that, a fucking Mary Sue. When did she get Force training? How did she do the Jedi Mind Trick without using her hands? How did she fucking repel a dude who has been trained by Luke in the Force? I'm fine with her being a decent pilot (Luke was a pretty good pilot, due to the Force enhancing his abilities), and her being able to repair shit (Luke also was like this as well, all Skywalkers were), but holy fuck, that fucking bullshit pulled at the end was something else. The black dude was fine, he actually had some characterization and had flaws, not-Darth Vader was fine, he had an ok-ish backstory, even if it's crawling-on-my-skin tier edgyness, but god damn Reid, the not-Luke of this story, is such a fucking Mary Sue. How did she do any of the Force tricks (when every other Jedi in the OT and Prequels had to go through training to use shit like the Jedi Mind Trick and Force Pull as well as she did). How did she repel a nearly-fully trained Sith? How did she read his mind? What in the actual fuck was that end-bullshit where she closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then beat the shit out of the big bad? Where did she learn all of this shit? And if she already could do it, why the fuck didn't she pull it out of her ass earlier?

Fucking hell. If they hadn't gone full-on bullshit at the end, then the movie would of been fine. Shit, it would of even given a bit of development to Rei or whatever, as she would of accidentally fucked up by giving the New Order the part of the map. This would of meant she would have an actual goal to seek out Luke (as she would go out to him to train harder for the next encounter with Mr. "muh feelings").

What was the conflict in this movie again?

Like what was the driving force that made the characters do what they were doing? Finn wanted to stay away from battle, poe didn't exist, Rey wants to find her parents. Like why didn't finn keep running away, why did he want to fight the first order, wouldn't his end goal be trying to find a way to end the war? Like someone could say "Hey, did you know that if you kill the final sith lord the darkside will lose it's grasp on the empire and they will stop killing everyone, give up and you don't have to kill the people that you lived with your whole life."
"Oh well that's convenient, how do I fight him?"


And hell rey is trying to find out her past, she finds a glimpse of it in the lightsabre but for some reason turns it down. Where is she going? Does she have daddy issues for Han?
Why didn't someone say, oh your name is rey? Huh I swore I remember luke talking to your father.

People just did things because, the rebels are the good guys, the empire is bad, and we gotta find luke.
>>
>>64141839
It was trying to find Luke, but JJ couldn't resist that sweet, sweet poetry, and added another Death Star in half way through, which pretty much derailed the movie until the end.

whats the rip quality ? Ive seen one watchable but ghastly audio.

>>64142349

I thought the implication was that he entered low-power mode in order to focus all his computational ability on recreating the map from partially-corrupt backup data,

>>64143133
then why didn't c3p0 say

I just can't get around to seeing it, I haven't paid for a movie in forever and I have to get over there and back and shit.

Not being able to shitpost about this big deal of a movie with you is awful, I'm putting myself on suicide watch.

>>64143248
the cam rip should be out. suffer though it for the shit posting. cant be any worse than seeing it in 3D

>>64143203

It would have been better, certainly. But 3PO did mention R2 was in low-power mode for a long time, and he tells BB-8 he doesn't believe R2 would have the map in his backup data. Then when R2 wakes up, 3PO is surprised to hear R2 has the map to show everyone. I took all of that to mean R2 had been working to recover or reconstruct the map from old backup data and it just took a long time.
>>
>>64143437
i took that he conveniently woke up at the mention of the map. that puzzle piece map killed it though.

>>64143682

Part of the map was removed by someone intentionally. Kylo Ren actually mentions they found the majority of the map in the Empire's archives, but it was missing that one piece. R2 had a copy of the map that the Empire had, and the missing piece was stored on that thumb drive. Luke had the smarts not to store the full map in one place so bad people wouldn't find the Jedi temple. He deleted the incomplete map from R2 as well, but R2 decided to try and recover the map from backup data. It took a long time, but he finally succeeded. The timing was convenient, but there are plenty of conveniences like that in these types of movies. It wasn't unforgivable, because at least the low power mode and the map can be explained.

The soundtrack WAS terrible. Has John Williams gone senile?

It wasn't terrible it was just entirely forgettable which is weird for John Williams since he usually makes very memorable scores.

So is episode 4 a 10/10? A perfect achievement of cinema?

3 is the best star wars movie though. Not even Hans I know or Vaders I am your father are better than this scene following through to order 66. https://youtu.be/_hoXNXSpmng

Star wars E7 was shit and why?

-The entire script was just "a new hope" rehashed.
-In the other Star Wars films it was about politics, leadership and the fate of the galaxy. The Force Awakes is "wheres Luke skywalker?"
-Rey was a boring protagonist, she had no good traits, and was trying to be too feminist, to be considered likable.
-Finn was poorly written, I don't want to kill innocent people but fuck those who I trained with all my life.
-Poe... WAS HE SNORTING COKE OR SOME SHIT?
-Han Solo, Ford just tagging along for the money.
-Chewie, yeah we was the best of the film.
-Leia, Free Hugs!
-Kylo Ren, Gets angry, Destroys entire room, wonders why everyone treats him like a child with anger issues... MY DADDY NEVER LOVED ME!
-Luke Skywalker, did fuck all really.

Stupid as fuck plot holes.
-The first order arrive in the first scene, hold the village at gunpoint but let a fucking droid escape.
-Finn who struggles to shoot his blaster cripples a star destroyer.
-Turns out poe and Finn are the same body size, what are the odds.
-Rey enters the millennium falcon, learns to fly the ship in less then 30 seconds.
-Han Soles borrows lots of money from gangs, yet never explains where it went.
-Rey knows more about Hans ship then Han knows about his own ship.
-Kylo Ren destroying all that equipment, but its ok human resources will just fix that shit.
-Leia on no stop hug duty, she only there to fucking hug people.
-Han and Finn go to rescue Rey, who doesn't need rescuing anyways.
-New Death star Has no radar coverage what so ever, even allows 10 x-wings to just fly in and fuck it up.
-Han dies and everyone cries, X-wing pilots die and no one gives a fuck.
-Crack team of Teens and young adults make a plan to destroy a fucking big ass death star in 5 mins, will it took 3 months to create a plan to destroy death star 1.
-Finn can use a light saber with no training, and doesn't chop his limbs off.

South park was right, Disney did fuck it all up.
>>
If they hired an actress to play Rey it would have been 10 times better.
>>
>>64134704
Nope. Honestly 3D hasn't been worth shit since Avatar.
>>
5>4>6>3>7>1>2

This is the objectively correct order.

Not sure what to say...This movie was bad in several respects - as I agree with OP, but in a way that is good. I've sold my retro collectibles this week for a decent amount. So, I guess it's time to move on. For those of you who like the series - best of wishes, but I'm off to pursue other things.

I would say the "objective" best order would probably be 5>4>6>7>3>2>1, based on general consensus.

My own order, though, would be 4>5>6>7>3>1>2
>>
>>64147256
>>64147361
I think the important thing is to always have 1 and 2 at the bottom, and 4 and 5 at the top, with 3, 6 and 7 in the middle.
You can mix them all around as much as you want within those areas, but as long as they keep to those tiers you're alright by me.
>>
>>64127913
I agree with you OP. Movie was bad. There are a lot of children / man children on tv that defend this turd movie.
>>
>>64144738
1. You're wrong
2. You're a fucking idiot
3. Jesus christ the CGI in that scene is absolutely atrocious.
>>
5 > 4 > 6 > 1 > 3 > 2

The only objective list in 2015 and beyond
