I liked the general aesthetic.
Didn't like how bith Finn and Rey went from complete strangers to hormone ridden teenagers.
Also fucking hated how Finn and Rey could stand up to Ben. Fucker is strong wit the force and was trained by Luke. He should've murederd them both right then and there.
Also didn't like how "eh" Han's death felt.

desu, we don't know how well he was trained, how "strong" he is with the force.
Even Luke was never trained like the jedi-knights were in the prequels.
I'm actually wondering how powerful Luke is now, compared to what we've seen Jedi do in the prequels.
>>63749053
>>Name one thing you liked
General aesthetics. The movie was pleasent to watch
>>Name one thing you didn't like
None of the good guys used seat belts. This seriously annoyed me. Tie Fighter pilot used seat belts, the good guys did not when in a tie fighter. In millenium falcon the shitty droid is seen using cables to steady itself, the good guys just bounce a little.
I liked dogfights, Poe and space stuff
I disliked lightsaber fight, story line is pretty weak, captain Phasma has only like 30 seconds screen time, Raid crew has only like 10 second screen time, Han falls into some fucking endless hole, Kylo is shit fighter and looses agaisnt someone holding lightsaber for the first time in his life, Rey hugs Leia like family even though she never met her before, basically no character development whatsoever, Snoke is very visibly cgi, minute long of Rey and Luke staring at each other, R2-D2 in hibernation wtf he is robot just turn him on, why did rebublic ever let them build a planet canon ? This is one thing I really didnt like and I could go on.
5/10 really dissapointed

Oscar Isaac. Shame they didn't give him enough screen time.

The absolute non-entity that was the aerial assault on Starkiller base. Felt like a lot was cut out of it.

I didn't like that the tentacle monster didn't get Rey
>>63749281
No matter how little training he's had, a fucking stormtrooper and a girl from the desert shouldn't have been a problem.
Also, they missed a nice running gag about Finn having shit accuracy.

This
Rey was kinda justified... but Finn standing for more that 2 seconds against Ben was idiotic.
>>63749429
Id say he had quite a lot of training. He was taught by Luke and was good enough to kill other students right ? Then Snoke was his teacher..
It really doesnt make any sense someone with no training could stand a chance
FRIENDLY REMINDER to downvote the movie into oblivion on all major review sites. spread this!
>>63749281
>>63749429
You forget that Finn might've had the same kind of training as the stormtrooper that kicks his ass. Rey on the other hand..
>>63749053
Liked Kylo as a character. One of the best the movie franchise has come up with
Disliked Chewie's lame reaction to Han's death, as if he didnt give a fuck. Everyone forgot about it ten minutes later.

She is great at everything because plot says so

BB-8. I want one for Christmas.
>Name one thing you didn't like
I wished the movie had dared more to try and stand on its own feet, instead of relying on throwbacks to the original trilogy.
serious question.
why did eating their own solar system's sun to fire their weapon apparently have no impact on them whatsoever? even if they had destroyed the other planets, their base is still in the same system, right? the sun seems pretty fucking important, you know? did they think this through?
>Name one thing you liked
Kylo Ren. I loved his childish tantrums.
>Name one thing you didn't like
The humour. It was tolerable, but there were WAY too many jokes.
>>63749755
The Starkiller Base was able to travel, much like the Death Star, so when the sun died they could have just move on and left the system.
>>63749053
liked: the new characters, kylo past seems to be interesting
didnt like: fucking star killer - the death star was the biggest Empire weapon and was planned since before Episode II. Then this new empire makes an entire weapon-planet that crushes 5 planets AND a sun like it was nothing.
question: have they destroyed coruscant?
>>63749796
> The humour. It was tolerable, but there were WAY too many jokes.

I liked the tone and feel of the movie was exactly what I expect form Star Wars.
Only complaint was that it felt too long with unnecessary padding, like that fat pilot from heroes.
I'm annoyed that Rey is going to be a lesbian by Ep VIII

Simple; Disney marketing execs found the underdog aspect of the original trilogy to be an aspect audiences enjoyed
>>63749053
>Name one thing you liked
Kylo Ren stopping a blaster shot while holding down Poe. (force being used)
>Name one thing you didn't like
When Kylo Ren started to get rekt he didn't use the force to save himself and a deus ex machina had to save him for the sequel. (force not being used)
>>63749670
Yeah, but a janitor stormtrooper. That has to count for something right? But yeah, I thought Kyle losing the lightsaber fight even when wounded was pretty weak.
One thing I came up with though: maybe Luke was helping and using his lightsaber with the force. The mains only fight with Luke's saber, no?
>>63749677
This, WTF? It's one thing to be strong with the force and maybe Luke's kid, but the be a prodigy at every fucking thing you try for the first time just feels like pandering to women.
>>63750093
I know the reasoning they did it of course. Them not explaining how it came about didn't sit well with me.

No ships except X-Wings and Ties

The new main characters. All of them.
>name one thing you didn't like
The returning characters apart from Luke. They all felt really off.
I really wish they had chosen only one of the three old characters to come back (Luke). I liked to see new Star Wars but it felt too attached to the old movies.
>liked
The first part of the movie, especially when Fin rescued Poe and they bro'd down. This was the only part of the movie where the banter felt real. It also felt like a nice little revisit to the OG trilogy, with the whole escape scene with the two, but utilising the new characters.
>disliked
When the rest of the movie after this just kept on revisiting the OG trilogy. I was astonished when they went with the whole "fly through and shoot the vent port thingy" idea at the end. I thought the only way they could seriously be doing this would be if their plan failed cause the empire would have learned from the fucking Death Star. Would have been interesting if they had to regroup and go with another plan instead. But nope.
Also Rey should have joined Kylo at the end. Or Luke should be some chaotic neutral character who's torn by the light and the dark, as he wasn't trained from a young age to resist the darkness. While his immense power over the force allows him to fight to stay in the light, this power is also what makes him so dangerous when the darkness brings him back. That's why he isolated himself for so long.
>>63750179
>I really wish they had chosen only one of the three old characters to come back (Luke). I liked to see new Star Wars but it felt too attached to the old movies.
Absolutely this. The refreshing thing about next year's "Rogue One" is that it hopefully wont be obsessed with the Skywalker family as the main saga is.
>>63750143
they have some sort of cold war/truce, no open war.
The Resistance is the terror/guerilla-organisation the Republic supports.
Like the Mujahedeen in the 80ies.

>>63749677
>Great at fighting
Lived on a desert planet since the age of ten where she's been forced to fight for herself, and as such knows how to fight.
>Learn how to use the force in minutes
Could be having subtle help from luke through the force or some shit
>Is amazing pilot
Is a good pilot, could be due to her being around vehicles all the time.
>Knows falcon better than Han
No, she knew what was replaced and added to the falcon when it was stolen, and she knows about broken down vehicles. It's like saying a mechanic shouldn't know about different cars.
Some things are shoehorned in but they're still explainable, you're retarded.

Rey's overexaggerated acting when we first meet her. It's stage acting so everything is clear to a large theatre, not movie acting
>mfw all of bb-8's scenes

She's clearly shown as extremely competent at everything she sets out to do, which is even more noticeable when standing next to the bumbling retard that is Finn .
>>63750232
How much do they pay you?
did the opening crawl say "Episode VII" or not?
>>63750570

>>63750570
Yes. It also began with " A long time ago"
>>63749053
I ended up really liking Finn. He was great. Rey Mysterio was pretty cool too.
I thought the pacing was really off. The film moved forward really hurriedly, and shots didn't get enough time to breathe.
It's the fourth best Star Wars film.
>>63750637
>shots didn't get enough time to breathe
I agree with this. The editing in general was very weak
>>63749108
>>63749134
This, fucking this.
That whole sequence was great. I felt underwhelmed by the movie once Rey was captured. It felt it was trying hard to be A New Hope. And she was so fucking over power the rest of the third act.
Overall t's fine, i had some fun. Still i don't feel like it left much of a impression on me. Besides the interaction of the characters through the first and second act (which i really liked, i had a few chuckles) the whole Star Killer thing and Rey being so capable doing lots of shits...yeah. It's like a overcharged New Hope. Same structure and kind of the same story, but with different characters and more action. Lots of action.
I already can see the next one being Empire Strike Back, but with Luke...i mean Rey, already in training. And at the end it's she who wreck Vader.
Also, pic related could be great if they showed the people from Coruscant melting and exploding, kinda like the Terminator 2 bomb scene.
>>63750565
And there are explainable reasons why.Finn manages to at least stand against the stormtrooper because he too has been conditioned for fighting, like the trooper. His rage at Rey being thrown into the tree is exemplified by a bezerker tier rush of blows from the training he had as a trooper that forced Kylo Ren to defend against them, after this initial rush Ren easily gets the upper hand. He manages to help Po escape from the first order and also managed to get the shields down on the Starkiller. I don't see you complaining about how conveniently easy it was for Finn or Han.
>>63750765
Genuinely bothered me when Han shot that storm trooper without even looking.
What caused Ben to fall to the dark side? Like, whats the source of his hate and anger? I think in the future movies we will see him crowned with a Darth title
>>63750708
Also, Han death was kind of meh. And was obvious as hell.
>Liked
I dunno, the dogfights i guess?
>Didn't like
Way to many. The one I hated the most for sure waswhy the fuck is Solo Jr called Ben? Wtf? He spoke to obi wan like 3 times. Ben was Luke's kid JJ, not Han's
>>63750765
Han's established as a badass and war hero. Finn's escape had more to do with Poe being the best pilot in the Resistance. That bit with the shields was also possible mostly thanks to Han and Chewie.
>>63749053
>Name one thing you liked
Girl power!
>Name one thing you didn't like
How did Poe lose his jacket?!
>>63750882
Could be theorised thathis life as a child and teenager was tough, with a Smuggler for a father and a General for a mother, there could be the assumption that he harboured some resentment for a probable lack of attention, That combined with being thrown away to his Uncle to be trained in the ways of the force probably helped fuel his adolescent anger, which Snoke used to entice him to the dark side, the power to be as feared and acknowledged as his grandfather Vader.
TL;DR Teenage angst, printscreen for future
>>63750882
Daily reminder that in the OT "Darth" was a name, not a title, since it makes no sense for Obi-Wan to refer to Vader as "Darth" when they meet on the Death Star.
>>63750963
Is it confirmed Han's son and not Luke's son?
>>63749053

i had to search this up, it wasnt coruscant it was another planet/system. The new republic apparently set up on a different planet after RoTJ

>>63751637
the jakku being tattooine 2 really irked me watching the movie, from the beginning scene and where rey "works" i kinda hoped theyd have their own culture but its literally the fucking same
i would say at least coruscant 2 didnt get mentioned until i realise that the fucking governing body of the galaxy gets destroyed within 10 seconds with no buildup apart from the movie telling you it exists after RoTJ
Black guy was actually cool. The jew pilot was forced though.
But lol it's a Disney rapetrain movie everything's forced. And multicultural. And nostalgic cuz it sells.
>>63750963
I dunno. Naming a child after the man who mentored Luke, a close friend and the savior of the galaxy doesn't seem too much of a strech. Also it shows Han's change in attitude and new found respect towards the jedi and the force.
>>63749244

>>63750094
I'm pretty sure he wasn't using it because he was injured.

>Name one thing you liked
That the tone of the film almost perfectly matches the tone of the old films. And Luke at the end. He looked fucking badass.
>Name one thing you didn't like
The design of the Supreme Leader and that they yet again had to blow up a planetary-sized weapon.
Overall, this film made me really optimistic about the rest of the series. I honestly can't imagine them yet again opting for the planetary superweapon shtick again so I hope we'll be seeing more of actual fleet action instead of static fights.

They could've at least explained the political relations of this new era and shit. I mean, i think the First Order and New Republic thing is like a Cold War shit, but they never confirmed, i don't even remember if they mention it.
The First Order seems like a really big fucking threat, instead of raising a big ass galatic army to stop them, let's just leave those Resistance bastards handle them.
>>63749053

The aerial dogfights are by far the best and most exciting in the franchise.
I was expecting Finn to be a bland character. He was great, one of the better in the franchise.
>>Name one thing you didn't like
Rey is a stupid Mary Sue, and Kylo should be a much stronger and better villain.
>>63752069
im assuming theres some political reason why they cant directly so they do it in secret but
1) They mention the republic has a huge fucking fleet
2) First Order are known to exist and are a huge threat so why cant they justify fighting them directly
I actually thought the movie was great and my only main problems are gripes like this that didnt impact my enjoyment and how the last 8 or so minutes were handled
>>63749053

I liked Boyega's part.
I disliked the inconsistency of Boyega seemingly turning pacifist, then turning on his former comrades in arms.
I liked the plot, in general.
I disliked the amount of references to A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. It looks cheap, especially as JJA already did that trick twice in his Star Trek movies.
>>63749153

That was extremely cheesy IMO. Especially the camera panning afterwards, looked very cheap, late 90s.
>>63749504
>Rey was kinda justified... but Finn standing for more that 2 seconds against Ben was idiotic.
I disagree. We're back to the original trilogy, rejecting the prequels' silly cartoon-fights.
>Name one thing you liked
if was better than I expected from JJ. I liked many things, if I have to pick one I think Ben was pretty cool fella (although I'm really dissapointed in his lightsaber skills - literally losing to newbies)

>>63749388
>The absolute non-entity that was the aerial assault on Starkiller base. Felt like a lot was cut out of it
It didn't ruin the movie for me but it felt quite lame that the rebels assulted them with what looked like 8 or 14 ships, while the First Order had a sizable fleet and defence.
>>63749651
>Liked Kylo as a character. One of the best the movie franchise has come up with

Rey knowing how to use her powers almost instantly when it took luke years.
1. I liked the Mystery. What's Skywalker been doing? Where does Ray come from? What was in her vision? Who's Snoke? What happened that Kylo went full dark side? Why does he wear a mask?
2. I didn't like the infiltration scene and what they did with Phasma
>>63752488
I got the feeling that her and Kylo were like battering rams with the force; they kinda know about it, and can throw it about, but they've got sod all control of it.
Contrast with Luke, who was more restrained but had more precise control.

Everything else. The premise of the movie was to destroy everything from the Original Trilogy. All of the stakes from the OT means nothing anymore. Destroy a death star, now you have a starkiller. Vader is redeemed? Not really, his grandson has no fucking clue he was redeemed. Victory for the republic? Not really they are wiped out without a second thought. Leia and Han fall in love? Leia doesnt give a fuck when Han gets it. Luke become a jedi knight? No, he's a miserable failure.
Disney rebooted star wars to replace republic with the resistance, empire for first order. And did so poorly.

>Name one thing you didn't like
How simple it was for them to destroy Starkiller, they literally sent 14 or something ships to the First Orders HQ hoping that 3 people on the ground could disable the shields while the rest of the rebels waited for their death at their base.

Underrated post
1 the lightsaber duels
call me whatever you want but the original trilogy duels where underwhelming as fuck even what was supposed to be the best duel in the movies, the last jedi vs the balance of the force was basically a "dont be bad daddy :(" with a lightsaber now and then.
the Prequels focused too much on being flashy and jumpy without being practical
2 phasma character development

this desu
>liked
Stormtroopers, particularly that one fight with Finn.
>disliked
Rey had literally no training whatsoever. Yet she pulled off some high level jedi shit in a few tries. Fuck, even Anakin and Luke, who were supposed to be freaks of nature, had to be trained by some of the strongest jedis at the time to get where they were.
Basically all of the Force related stuff was pure shit, and everything else was pretty good (besides some explanation/context behind the the entire First Order/Republic situation that was skipped in favor of more action).

Not one female died during the film. Constant barrage of "I don't need no man" "I can take care of myself". "We really want to sell it to girls hmm I know we'll show two female pilots running along that'll get the sjw's on our side".
>>63752840
Anakin had his mother and basically made a living out of fixing ships and droids.
Luke had his uncles, he only needed to do farm stuff
Rey was basically dropped as a child in a desert planet without anything, i think she had to figure out how to survive by herself.
Kylo just looks like a low level Sith clown fanboy, and against Finn he was toying with him, which is why Finn managed to snag a couple of lucky hits and made Kylo look like an even bigger child.
>>63752840
It's pretty heavily implied that she was doing it all subconsciously before, like Luke was when piloting, and had a head start when it came to using it at will.
I'm fairly sure Luke will give her some perspective, and/or Snoke or Kylo will rek her next time they meet.

I figure that after the death of the emperor, the empire split in two. The republic was able to seize control of some part of the galaxy, while the empire continued in a more remote part with a name change. Like Byzantine empire after the fall of Rome.
The speech before firing the cannon even refers to a the republic being a hostile external government that is supporting the resistance within the first order.

Rey is 100%, certainly Luke's daughter. It seems that most of Darth Vader's strength went to Luke, and not rly to Leia. Don't know if that's enough to justify her standing up to Kyolo but I guess it helps.

>Also, pic related could be great if they showed the people from Coruscant melting and exploding, kinda like the Terminator 2 bomb scene.

>>63755105
why would lukes daughter speak with a british accent?
I liked the chase scene in the falcon
I mean it was all JJ style shit, everything going on at once, nothing really making sense, but I felt it worked well for a large part of the chase scene. If there was one thing that was missing from the OG starwars, it was a bit of nasuea in the dogfighting
lightsaber fight was gud as well (meaningless aside, can't be helped.) learned lessons from 'boring' old style lightsaber duels, without resorting to the kind of ridiculous emotionless choreography of the later stuff

she was on her own since childhood, she probably picked up her accent from someone on Jakku
>>63751093
Leia probably pushed him hard, Han was probably distant.
He was probably not really fitting anywhere. Not chill enough for Luke, certainly not smooth as fuck like his dad. So he went for what Leia wanted, which undoubtably was for him to become worthy of his heritage -- but since it was forever apparent that a sperg like ren can't compete with them on a number of levels all that was left was hoping that his force powers would make up the gap. Living with Luke probably showed that this was never the case - until sneaky snooko snuck up and told him there was a way
desu it's a less retarded fall than anakin
Ultimately though it's got to come down to the vader genes though.
>>63749053
>>63749053
Finn, wasn't expecting to like him this much. He feels very fresh, an unique story in SW imo.
Han Solo. Now, you must understand I never cared much for him, but Harrison Ford can still act and it was great to see him as Han again, but more matured and wise. His final scene was heartbreaking.
That the new trio isn't a rehash of the old one. I know people think Rey is female Luke, but they don't have the same personality or even had a similar life. Luke always seeked adventure, greener pastures and he was a bit immature, and that wasn't Rey. They only have the earning for family in common. The closest, I think, was Poe = Leia, they have the sass and were estanblished as rebels, responsible and competent from the get go.
Kylo Ren. Adam Drive did a good job, it would've been easy to screw this character because the dialogue wasn't anything special, but he made me interested anyway. His scene with his father and the final fight were all memorable in due to his talent.
Effects. I rewatched all the SW 2 days before watching AFA, and to see how the world looks real again...
--
Lack of Luke. This was cruel.
Not enough Poe. He was cool, needed more of him.No Rey eating real food for the first time. I'm know, this is weird, but she was on disgusting ration food, we were robbed of a scene of her eating something real.
How the Republic could let themselves fall so fast again. I thought we would learn how some systems benefited more from the Imperium and that's why the Dark Side rose itself to power so quickly again, but...
Carrie Fisher. I enjoyed how far Leia has progressed, that she is still true to herself, but it was clear CF mind is pure mush, so it was sad to see her trying to act.
So is Snoke actually a 20ft tall humanoid or was the hologram of him just an enlarged image?
It will be pretty weird if he's actually a giant dude, especially if he fights.

Rey and her first scene. There's something I really enjoy about huge, huge ruins, and the giant crashed ship was just so pleasing to look at. Rey herself was nice to look at too.
Also liked the bait-and-switch with Rey being the jedi. All the media hyped it up to be Finn so it was super cool to see how they tricked us all

I've noticed is a constant complaint, that Rey is kinda of a Mary Sue. But I think she was one of the kids Luke was trainning, she was hid on Jakku because Kylo started killing everyone.Maybe the rumor she is Luke kid are true. It'd also explain her "mastering" her abilities so fast, and their potential.
That's, of course, on the Jedi stuff. That she is a good pilot and fighter are already show in the movie, she was alone and had to improve herself otherwise she would die.

He was complaining about her British accent. If someone can't even let go of her having a British accent, I don't know how he can deal with other similar things that are common in film.
Like any film set in antiquity, where they don't speak Latin or Greek. Or any film where they Suspend that disbelief, because most other people don't give a shit other than SJWs who complain about white-washing and shit like that.
>>63756496
Being a naturally good pilot is one thing.
Being a powerful force user and knowing how to use it is spitting in the face of the rest of Star Wars.

>kylo not instantly killing rey
he wanted her to join him senpai
>>63756736
He did get shot in the torso barely 10 minutes earlier. You see him wince and mess up his first attack then for some reason punch his bullet wound. Finn managed to injure him further so it would be natural for him to not be in his best fighting shape
>>63749053
I liked how the Force, and the lightsaber was portrayed. Everything felt so grand and mystical.
I also liked the huge scope of everything. Also that helped to make it feel mystical, and more space-fantasy than sci-fi.
I liked everything about the bad guys.
I liked Rey
I loved the sound effects
I loved the ending with Luke. Those 3 seconds of him not talking was more emotional than the entire prequel combined. And he felt like a true space wizard.
So far a somewhat platonic relationship between the 2 main characters. A relationship subplot would probably only be cheesy and take up time in these ~2 hour films.
I didn't like the third death star, and just making it 100x bigger felt like nothing more than a dick measuring contest
I though that Han got too much screen time. Maybe it was because he won't be in the last 2 films, but it would have felt more genuine if they kept his part smaller.
The Han-Chewie banter was shit
Too many shitty throwbacks to the OT.
BB8 was cute, but too similar to R2D2.
Finn felt underused
>>63756694
>as bad as kylo not instantly killing rey
Snoke didn't want him to. He ordered Ren to bring Rey to him, presumably because he knows her power and wants to turn her to the Dark Side

you don't have to be a sith to pick up a red lightsaber and use the dark side of the force
>>63757775
you're a fucking autist who is avoiding the issue
playing a little game where you actually get hurt is not the same as beating a trained warrior in battle your first time
point at least luke had training before we saw him do shit
>>63756694
They established with the finn vs stormtrooper fight that storm troopers recive at least some melee combat training.
Rey grow up having to scavenge parts and fend for herself. So knowing how machines work and being able to fight isn't that unbelievable.
Also kylo is clearly emotionally unstable and badly injured at the start of the fight and then finn gets in a lucky hit on his shoulder.
The force also seems tied into your emotional state with fear and anger granting you a lot of power. Jedi training is about being able to use the force while keeping your emotions in cheek. While the Sith give into their impulses which is why kylo is so powerful being just an unstable ball of rage.
In ROTJ Luke is able to overpower Vader once he gets pissed off and only takes a step back once realizes that that's exactly what seev wanted.
>>63758407
you thought you could change the subject
rey -untrained - practically beating a kylo - trained by not one but at least 2 masters
is not the same as
luke beating a machine in jedi training
>>63758486

it's a shame the director didn't put in the FUCKING MOVIE
>>63758367
>>63758407
There have been many dark jedi in the past. Or just force sensitives and users that tap into the emotional, raw parts of the force via the "dark side"
Qui gon Jin for example was closer to a grey jedi than more into the monastic ways that the Jedi of the old republic were. Kenobi was not a traditionalist jedi either in how he trains his padawan(s).
>>63758533
If we're going by the "living force" then maybe the force gave Ren favor?haven't watch the movie yet. Not excited nor am I about to get my hopes up
Poe and BB-8 were cool. I didn't feel there were enough scenes building up the personalities and relationships of the mains, and I hated that the baton stormtrooper wasn't Captain Phasma.

>Rey hugs Leia like family even though she never met her before
This would be weird in real life but when you have a connection to this magical power that is a part of every living thing subconsciously telling you "Hey this is your long-lost aunt go fucking hug her" it's much different.

Poetry galore. Plot was so close to A New Hope it was ridiculous. The movie was weighed down by its predecessors. Kylo Ren was pretty weak as a villian, too whiny and non-threatening. Rey beating him without training brought him down. Also R2D2 waking up suddenly for no reason was dumb and should have happened as a consequence of something in the story.
>>63758730
>Also R2D2 waking up suddenly for no reason was dumb and should have happened as a consequence of something in the story.
Luke switched him off and Luke switched him back on. The only dumb thing about this was C-3PO explaining to BB8 that R2D2 was switched off when BB8 would know that already.

Don't forget
>completely invalidating the name and the plot of the previous episode
Now it really SHOULD have been called Revenge of the Jedi cause that's all they fucking have to show for it as of TFA. Luke convinced his dad to murder-suicide the emperor, taking out the two guys who leveled the Jedi order the last time. But there's no return because Kylo apparently prevented that offscreen.

You're a doofus if you didn't call it the second the movie was announced. Ford didn't want to come back after ANH, tried to get killed in ROTJ, and always says he'll only come back to do this kind of shit in his old age if they kill him off.
So no, nobody really cares. Han's entertaining and Ford is GOAT but overally he's a weak character that has been entirely overrated by morons.
