Unimaginative ripoff of the original trilogy

I almost walked out when they did the trench run (ANH) paired with flying inside the ultra-death-star (ROTJ)

JJ basically played it safe with re-hashing the original shit for a new post-millenial audience, which was outright cowardly

it was actually fucking awesome. The two things i didnt like where the fact that there was again a fucking death star and that an untrained force user managed to bit one in training but that bit isn't fully accurate yet. Also the fucking references were a bit annoying, i mean come on how much fan service do we need to know that it's a star wars movie
>>
It lacked the artistic profundity of the prequels and the originality of the original trilogy. Didn't feel at all like Star Wars.

It was basically a Marvel flick masquerading as Star Wars.

Almost as if they wanted to hit it big with this movie so peoples interest in star wars would be renewed. They didn't want to fuck it up like TPM so they made a familiar ANH 2.0 and played it safe knowing it would be a hit.

I have an idea for a generic action film, Star Wars: A New Hope, but Luke is a girl.
10/10
Star wars is back everyone, the exact same Star Wars you saw as a child, is back. Its back. It had all the things I remember. For real this time. Really, its back. Everyone its back. The Critics love it. Its back...Its back......Its back..... Wait what?

Can't wait for that.

>>64056334

This. I got some seriously odd Marvel vibes from this, especially from most of the characters cracking jokes in unfitting situations.

Also that bowcaster bit with Han was so dumb.

Perhaps what ticks me off more than anything is that nothing really changed in the 30+ years after ROTJ. We've all seen what 30 years can do to the Star Wars universe, and jack shit happened. TFA's plot could've happened, at the most, maybe just 5 years after ROTJ, minus the whole Han's son thing. Lucas starved fans for 18 years leading up to Episode 1, and that movie was a completely fresh take on the world. I wanted something more along the lines of how Episode 1 felt compared to the ones preceding it. Some sort of culture-shock of new planets, factions, and characters. Much of the "new" stuff in TFA is redesigned OT stuff.
>>
>>64056541
Actually I'd argue that the new Luke is a dark jedi at the moment.

Kylo fits Luke's general character and arc more closely than Rey does, even if Rey follows a similar path.

He is a young man training in the ways of the force, trying to emulate his Jedi relative. He must confront his father in order to complete his training and redeem/kill him to stave off the dark/light sides of his personality. Etc...
>>
Not a contrarian but the movie does not deserve a 95% on RT.. It's a B- movie at best
>>
>>64056753
I got no qualms with no Kylo Rens or Reys, but the film was a mess. If anything the characters were interesting and likeable. Bring back those old fucks though was ridiculous.
>>
There's nothing wrong with improving on the plot of episode IV. The movie brought the joy of the original Star Wars trilogy to the new generation, can't ask for anything better. 10/10

>Much of the "new" stuff in TFA is redesigned OT stuff.

To be fair family, I can't see how TOO much would change in the galaxy, even in 30 years - even with the Emperor's death, the empire would be still fuck huge and the rebellion/new republic would still be relatively small/not as well financed or have as many resources. So I'd imagine that the two sides would still be fighting.

What they could have done though, would be to have the internal factional struggles definitely within the Empire and possibly within the New Republic. I'm getting vibes of this with Hux and Kylo, and I'm hoping we see some kind of factional war in the next movies.

Honestly, the way I see it is that this movie turned out almost as good as it could have given the circumstances. If Lucas had decided to make the new trilogy, even with the stain of the prequel trilogy on him, he'd still be at liberty to do whatever and go in whatever direction he wanted - it was his series after all.

But now that Disney bought it, they have no credibility in relation to this franchise, so in order to establish their hold on this brand, they HAD to play it safe (possibly a bit too safe in this case) or risk losing support of a sizeable portion of the fan base/their revenue.

Now though that this movie has established a good reputation for Disney, they have FAR more implicit creative control as to how they want to take this series, so I am eagerly awaiting the next film.

HOWEVER, if Disney decides to follow Empire with the next film, then we can safely say fuck those filthy jews.

She didn't even have any money, she was literally being paid in food. A "quarter portion" that cooks up into one tiny little loaf of green bread for an entire day's work spent digging through star destroyer ruins.

Fucking idiots

Poe had resistance connections on the planet.
I feel bad that you spent money for a ticket to this movie and then missed half of it. Could you not hear over chomping your popcorn?

Nice ass pull. Let me guess, Han finds the Falcon because the Force told me, so? :^)

They STOLE the Falcon you fucking incompetent mouthbreather, she didn't BUY it.
>>
>>64058778
If she had done it, she would probably have several thugs after her. Poe could shake them off.

She takes the falcon because half the people who would be after her is dead.

So Rey spends her days on the worthless planet, wasting her life away, with far fetched hope, with a functional ship nearby? Yeah, ain't buyin git

>If she had done it, she would probably have several thugs after her.
Are you seriously implying that Ms. Mary Sue would be out numbered?

>She takes the falcon because half the people who would be after her is dead.
The movie shows us how competent she is as a fighter. So no, try again
>>
>>64058858
>She takes the falcon because half the people who would be after her is dead.
This, perhaps she was harboring dreams of stealing one of her boss's ships, but she only went and did it when her choices were either that or literally lay down and wait for the first order to kill her.

Can someone explain to me how the VERY MOMENT they steal the Millennium Falcon, Han Solo shows up?

Like, I can accept the fact that he had a tracking device on it or whatever convenient plot device you want to attach to it. But literally minute 1: they steal the ship minute 2: Han solo traps it in his junker vessel.

Like they literally couldn't have inserted a star wipe that said: 1 week later
