post yfw Kylo Ren stops the blaster bolt in mid-air

Was it the most powerful display of the Force in Star Wars canon?

What was more impressive was how it seemed he just forgot about it for the rest of the scene, hovering in midair in the background.

I liked it better when he got beaten in a lightsabre dual by a girl who literally just picked up a lightsabre. Oh and a random nigger with no force.

>>63892956
They frame him to be very powerful. I like that his emotions stop him from being consistent, but you can see the potential is there for him to outshine his grandfather.
>>
>>63892956
This. I liked how it was handled.

>>63892959
I can excuse this since he seemed to be more adept at force powers (Leia) than dueling (Luke) and was badly injured. At the same time, I can't explain the resistance to mind reading. I hope it boils down to Rey having had prior training that she's slowly mentally regaining, otherwise I can't really defend it.

I was drinking coffee when it happened and almost did a spit take in my seat. I apologize to the people sitting in the theater who had to put up with the noise of me nearly choking on it.
>>
>>63892959
He got shot in the gut by the bow which was the most powerful fucking gun showed in the movie. They made a point of showing how strong it was like 90 times.
>>
>stopped the bolt

Best in the movies, at least. Though Vader choking a man from a completely different ship was pretty good.
>>
Shit was incredible, was the character I was most excited for and be does that shit like two minutes into it. Based as fuck.
>>
>>63893328
Vader didn't freeze the bolt. That was possible with the 1980 tech I think they hand painted the bolts one each frame of film.
>>
>>63894321
>Finn freaking out when it finally resumed its trajectory

Seriously, that scene was amazing. Kylo has some serious potential.
>>
>>63894321

Oh damn I nearly forgot about that one too.

I think one of the most striking uses of the Force in the original trilogy was Yoda pulling the X-wing out of the swamp in ESB, but even then it was a pretty simple moment, the point was that to Yoda it's not that big of a deal and Luke is the one who sees it as insurmontable because he's not willing to let himself go to use the Force.

>>
>>63894219
I thought I was the only one drinking coffee in the theatre?
>>
>>63894362

Yeah the one thing I wanted them to do in the first part of the movie was set the villains up to be a legitimate threat and have likeable characters to fight against them, and that's exactly what they did with Poe and Kylo.
>>
>>63894423

Nope. It was a late showing and I wanted to stay alert for it.

Not bad coffee even, I was expecting it to be stale, reheated shit and it was pretty comfy.

Probably my favourite moment of the film. I like it, but the this was the only real "oh fuck" scene. It was new and terrifying

Well clearly his hand is in armor, same as the rest of his body.
After the first shot, the most weakened part of the armor is his hand.
If he can do just much as wreck Vader's saberhand, he did quite a bit for their chances of escape.

>>63895935

That's kind of the point. Kylo is meant to be seen as pants-shittingly terrifying at the start because that's the persona that he's actively trying to cultivate in-universe. As we get to see more of his character and he has further emotional breakdowns from his own doubts and failures piling up, he becomes less of a mysterious threat and more of a pitiable little bitch.

What I liked about Kylo was that he was one of the few original parts of the movie. It would have been easy to just make Vader 2.0, but I like that they created a more unique villain.

Too bad Hux and Snoke are practically 1:1 copies of Tarkin and Palpatine.

Snoke is really unknow at this point, so he could be expanded on much more than the emperor. Remember we pretty much knew nothing about Sheev besides the fact that he uses lighting and even Vader is scared of him untill episode 3.

Because he's insecure in himself and at that point he had just killed his father, something he wasn't 100% sure he wanted to do. Plus the bolt chewie shot him with.

>>63903785
Yea with the rest of his body, he used what potential he had left after he became a machine and mastered it.

The point I'm making is before he was crippled, his potential was much higher. He had the highest midichlorian count in history and was extremely proficient in dueling too, a rare combination. Would he have been allowed to master his potential without being crippled, he'd be on an entirely different level.

For example, in order to accompensate his machine parts, he switched from an agility to an overpowering saber style.
>>
>>63904009
>midichlorian
Good thing that isn't canon anymore.
>>
>>63892836
IMO the most powerful display of the force happened in the clone wars 3D cartoon, where a literal force god grabs Anakin's lightsaber with his HAND and fully disables it with no trouble whatsoever.

After seeing that, nothing else comes close. Honestly hoping that JJ steals from this as well and the next director has Luke pulling a similar move on Kylo or something.

>>
>>63904185
Well I worded it wrong, but think of it like this

Anakin is like 100 gallon tank, that's filled to say 10%, so 10 gallons. The 10 gallons represent his connection with the force, training and meditating and what not fills the tank slowly

But then he gets rekt and gets his limbs cut off, so the tank now only holds say 60 gallons

He can still train and fill up the remaining tank, it's just not as big anymore, still, Vader was more powerful than Anakin.

What many people forget is that Luke is ALSO ridiculously powerful by average Jedi standards and so is Obi Wan. In fact, the only major character that isn't some force juggernaut in all 6 movies (ignoring 7 for the sake of the argument) is Qui Gon Jin. He was a long trained Jedi Master and Obi Wan was basically surpassing him already as his Padawan.
>>

You're fucking stupid.

Do you know how hard it is to fling those fucking things with the force? YODA had a hard time stopping a single one and he even needed a fucking ten second warmup before he could toss it back.

Both Darth Plagueis and Kylo Ren don't appear to use the "dark side" of the force purely for offense.

Plagueis uses the force to create and sustain life.
Kylo Ren seems to use the force primarily to hack into the minds of others (information gathering), or to "stop" things/people.

No force choke or lightening has been demonstrated.
>>
>>63908894

Force choke is just telekinesis applied to a person's throat. Telepathy (the word you're looking for) is nothing special.
>>
>>63907262
Rey may be a positive role model in the sense that she is so competent at everything, but she's just a boring character. She solves problems quickly and even when she makes mistakes, she quickly recovers from them without consequences as significant as other characters. The only thing about her that's interesting is external to her, her parentage.

By contrast, Kylo suffers from immense character defects that seems like it will take the entire trilogy to resolve. I find the dichotomy between his outward menace and inward insecurity interesting and I can see tremendous room for growth.

By this..Snoke means that he will let Kylo Ren kill him.

Not that anon, but
>"Mary sue" only means "competent female"
Thats wrong. Unless your using an extremely broad definition of mary sue, that's wrong. A more accurate statement would be that a mary sue is an unrealistically competent and extraordinary character(not necessarily female, although it usually is).

Rey had never used a light saber in her life, yet she managed to beat Kylo who had been using one for years. In addition, she learns how to use the force in, what, a day? She went from thinking the force was a myth to being able to resist and even beat someone who had been using it for years and was even trained by Luke fucking Skywalker.

What little personality she had was 90% "I am a strong female character who don't need no man" which basically meant that she snapped back at male characters for helping her and that she could win a fight against any male.

There's being a good role model for girls, and then there's being a Mary sue with unrealistic abilities and personality. Your expecting me to believe that a scavenger from the middle of the desert would be able to master the force good enough in,lets be generous, a few days to beat someone who has been using it for years and was trained by a jedi master?

Honestly this film did a good job of making me fear the villains. We got to see what Kylo is actually capable of, and his interrogation of Poe made me afraid for him. Hux speech made it clear he's got the potential to be a strong leader and Snoke was just eerie. Really looking forward to 8 and 9.

What? Did you even watch this movie? Did you go in with a bias and not even pay attention? She was maybe apprehensive to Finn at first but that is probably because she grew up on a shitty planet all by herself. She quickly warmed up to Finn, Chewie, and even the old geezer Han.

The whole Starkiller thing was stupid. How the hell are they going to have a bigger threat than that for the next two movies? The coolest part of the movie for me was the vision Rey had and the Knights of Ren. How dope would it be for a group of dark Jedi who betrayed Luke and destroyed the New Temple to be the overarching baddies of the movies?

Imagine, an elite group of Linkin Park listening Black Knight emofags and edgelords led by the supremely insecure Kylo, taking back the Empire one planet at a time with the first order. Each member of this group of outcasts and fuck ups have their own deep rooted psychological issues, the tumblr and devianarts fags would eat it up. It'll make it all the more satisfying when each one gets cut down throughout the trilogy.

Honestly I'm biased because I'm a huge mark for the "group of unique bad guys that get beaten one at a time" formula for movies like these. I think it's because I played too much Sly Cooper as a kid.

I admit I did hear that she was a bad character before watching the movie, but that really was a big part of her personality. For example, on Jakku after meeting Finn, explosions were going off and people ere getting killed left and right(and, iirc the characters were taken off guard by this, meaning it was a complete surprise) and instead of being like "oh shit whats going on" her primary concern is that Finn keeps grabbing her hand. And this also happened after she realized Finn was a good guy with good intentions.

>>63911975
I suppose so, I didn't think she was okay with him until she actually put her hand out to pick him up off the ground. To me, that was the turning point in their relationship.
