Same with me, even the surprise for Han. Harrison Ford seemed to really channel the character and the script did him justice as well.

I think Rey was written alright, but Daisy did not act really well, I think. I had a feeling that in the midst of the action she was just saying her lines as fast as she could to convey movement, but at times she just sound like a rude character.

I liked Finn, just didn't like his constant heavy breathing. He also should have got fucked up hard by Kylo but somehow held his own. Rey was ok, she just shouldn't have been so strong with the force, she should develop over the course of the trilogy.
>>
>>64059407
I agree. He had more of a vendetta against Kylo so having him finish the fight after the whole movie hyped up Rey would have been really good.

I think she was written poorly, because they're afraid of being called sexist she had to be too strong. She does it all on her own, only chewie helps by wounding Kyle ren and later giving her a lift off the death star: the planet.

Like post-jakku Poe just casually is a total expert on his own. He pretty much 1v1'd the shitkiller basic bitch, the other X-wing were just a mild distraction. But Poe was rushed in, meant to die in the crash on jakku. JJ meant to the movie be mostly about Rey, so the same excuse doesn't apply.
>>
>>64058036

His character's behavior, while entertaining, made little sense considering his background.

We really needed more insight into what his life was like as a Stormtrooper, and how he developed feelings of discomfort and the will to rebel despite thousands before him never doing so. As it stands his defection seems inexplicable, it doesn't really say anything about what it means to be a stormtrooper. Finn might as well have never been an accessory to evil, as the very first time we see him his morale compass and willingness to hold on to it are both completely unscarred. Usually, when we see a bad guy switch sides, a few feelings should be invoked. The audience should feel vindicated in rooting for the good guys, and should also be excited to finally have a sample of the enemy's power and style on the side of good. Finn doesn't get that moment.

Still, that was the absolute least of the movie's problems. Boyega was good, but not great. And what Star Wars needs to stay afloat is greatness.
>>
>>64059984
Was I the only one a little concerned about how excited he looked over the idea of killing Phasma in a trash compactor?
>>
>>64058036
He was annoying as fuck the whole movie and literally brought down any dramatic moment with retarded quips. Also his character makes no fucking sense. When I first saw that stormtrooper lean down and pick up his fallen comrade, I expected a moment where the stormtroopers were actually humanized, and that he would avenge his friend out of anger, killing those rebels, but NOPE GOTTA HAVE MY SHITTY ONE DIMENSIONAL VILLAINS WHO ARE EVIL WITHOUT QUESTION, GOOD THING FIN REALIZED THAT THOSE REBELS WHO KILLED HIS FRIEND WERE THE "ACTUAL" GOOD GUYS.

Fuck this shitty movie.
>>
>>64058036
His acting was good. The writing was shit.

And why was a stormtrooper raised from birth to be loyal basically a normal person?

Shit writing.
>>
I didn't mind him, I just didn't understand, why none of the white people in the movie never mentioned that he's a nigger.
>>
>>64061093
I don't really care about his life as a clone trooper. Seeing his hands shake at the massacre and knowing that he was really just a janitor is enough to establish that he was uncomfortable with what the first order wanted from him and isn't that a good enough reason to fuck over fascists?
>>
A nigger in a movie will never be all right. Take your race mixing propaganda to your own country you filthy kike.
>>
>>64061093
The thing is
1. He was taken from his home as a young child and reprogrammed and the fact that he realized that and felt anger about it shows he wasn't completely conditioned
2. He was a janitor and the mission in the beginning was his first combat role
3. The fact that they have re-programming and evaluate the Storm Troopers shows he definitely wasn't the first to have second thoughts or defect

But you are right about us never getting that "moment" of him switching sides because we never really saw him do anything as a Storm Trooper.

I'm sure we'll get more into his backstory later on. It seems odd that he'd mention being kidnapped as a child and that they showed he'd never had a history of insubordination without touching on those points again

He played it well enough for the big action blockbuster it was, but why is a stormtrooper who is on sanitation in a combat role, and why is he, a stormtrooper, raised from birth with loyalty to the empire or whatever they replaced it with (what was the point of the original trilogy if the resistance just fuckin' lost after all that and the empire was replaced with something nearly identical to the empire?), able to jump ship so easily

>>

I agree. He was more likeable than Poe or Rey. I have nothing wrong with Boyega cast as Finn.

What I do have a huge problem with, however, is the reasoning JewJew Abrams gave for casting him.
>>
>>64061131
I think it kind of made sense, imagine how you might feel if you suddenly found yourself in control of an authority figure that scared the shit out of you. (I know it's stated somewhere in the tie in material that Phasma is the tough but fair and reasonable kind of officer, but still.) Or I dunno,maybe finn is just kind of a douche.
>>
>>64058036
Finn was fucking gold, easily my favorite part of the movie.

Oh my god I thought I was the only one. The whole thing sounded like garbage and I had to fight myself from falling asleep during it. It was THAT BAD
>>
>>64061443

This theme was playing really clearly early in the movie, I think everyone in the theater could hear it. It was just kind of bland. Although maybe that was a deliberate choice by Williams, since it's Rey's theme.
>>
>>64061443
You might have a point, since now that I think about it, George always did allot a bizarre amount of audio real estate to the music alone.

That said, it was still noticeably below the mark.
>>
>>64061513
It's stylistically distinct enough from everything else in the Star Wars universe to stand out; far from bland. It's also super whimsical, like something out of an 80s Spielberg film.

Honestly something was nagging me the whole time, like the movie was good but it didn't quite feel like a star wars movie. I mean even the prequels felt more star wars-y to me, and those films were practically made by aliens. But I'm starting to realize that it was the music. Crazy how such a simple detail can effect a film so much.

I agree with you 100 percent. I was born in 93, but I watched the OT before the new ones, never really understood the hate for the prequels because in my opinion, they all felt like Star Wars, 1-6. The Force Awakens didn't feel like anything. It felt manufactured, cold, and soulless.

>To me it felt exactly like Abrams' shitty Star Trek films, only transferred into the SW universe.

Felt the same way to me, the scene where "Planet the Audience Can't Possibly Care About #3" gets destroyed looks almost exactly like the scene where Spock's planet gets destroyed in the Star Trek movie, only with more fire. I'm starting to think that all those jokes about Star Trek being Abrams' demo tape for Star Wars had a little bit of truth in them.

>right after that he regretlessly goes on a genocide blasting down the people he grew up with his whole life and even celebrating the fact

For god's sake, I know Star Wars doesn't have the most gray morality but this was an immediate 180 with no buildup. It's enough that Finn knows the First Order is evil and wants to run from it, but it's all he knew his whole life so it's practically the same as suddenly killing your own family. Was it too hard to give him maybe 5 more minutes of development or at least have Poe be the one to shoot the bad guys while they escaped?

Hell, it even feels like the writers admitted it was bullshit when it was found that he had no previous abnormalities as a stormtrooper

I really just didn't like it. The only decent part of that track was the recycled "Force theme" played right before the credits. It's not that the soundtrack as a whole was bad, it just wasn't good. The only music that really sounded good to me was the track that played when the X-Wings were flying in on that planet where Orange Yoda lived.
>>
>>64058036
Poe was great, he had that Buck Rogers/Jack Burton kinda charm to him. Finn was surprisingly like able. I love how he didn't try to hard to be this Jedi type. He was a fucking janitor! Awesome. Plus his reactions to things felt realistic.

Rey was... Decent. I didn't mind her at all but she didn't have that Nausicaa type of wonder I was hoping for. Hoping in the next move she loses a hand for poetry or an eye.

It's not fair to say the prequels were better than Episode VII, they were almost irredeemably bad. The prequel soundtrack was better, but TFA's soundtrack did include a lot of callbacks to the originals. The "binary sunset" theme plays several times in the movie, and the Resistance theme is reminiscent of that song that plays in Episode II when Yoda and the clones show up.
>>
>>64062180
Let's be honest, Episode 1 had "Duel of the Fates", one of the best SW tracks ever at least. Awakens didn't have anything that compared
>>
>Leia hugs Rey at the end of the movie
>They never met before
>Nobody even told Leia about Rey and viceversa
>Leia doesn't even hug Chewie or even looks at him
That scene was odd as fuck
>>
>>64062236
>I mean, they fucking blew up Courescant I think?

It wasn't even Coruscant. It was 3 planets that we didn't even know existed, they were mentioned about a minute before they got blown up, had no characters that we cared about living on them, and none of the characters had any connection to any of those planets or to anyone living on them that we knew about. Blowing up Coruscant would have been a massive improvement.

>You'd think that a whole fucking batallion of ships would show up to combat that death star thing and not a handful of x-wings.

They actually explain this one, the Republic's entire fleet was based in that system. Seems a little convenient, but weirder things have happened in real life.

Surprisingly a great character, enough amount of jokes, badass scenes, silly scenes and likeable as fuck. Well done JJ

To be fair, it took her a good five seconds to learn how to pilot the Millennium Falcon, three tries to do a Jedi mind trick, and she forgot to take off the safety on her gun before taking out 5 or 6 stormtroopers in a about a minute.

They took her by surprise and still got beat hard.
She also escapes by her own from being captive by the Order.
And overpowered a trained dark side user in the first time she uses her powers.

Sorry, that girl is bordering the sueism. You don't need that to make a strong character, see Furiosa, she's a strong female character both literalyl and metaphorically speaking and doesn't feel over the top but well writen instead.

Once she stops doing that she has unlimited potential. Otherwise why would this powerful force user be stuck as a lowly scavenger on some sand planet?

I think they are setting her up for a lot of failures in the next movie. Kylo is going to come back strong as fuck and really get his revenge, possibly killing Luke at the end or in the 3rd movie.

Lol believe what you want anon. The fact that guys are becoming fans of Finn means Disney wouldn't risk the make audience feeling sour about him being gay, it'd turn a LARGE portion of the audience off. So yes, he will be fucking Rey.

There was no groundwork. They were just instantly friends because they murdered a bunch of punk stormtroopers together.

Everyone was way too fucking chummy in this movie. The cast of the original trilogy was constantly bitching each other out.

I'm a white guy and it's the only part of the movie that annoyed me. I don't care that Finn is a character, but do they have to make him the obvious forced love interest for the hot white chick? So she can shit out 3-4 mocha mistakes and completely ruin her gene pool contributions?

Some people still exist in the middle, but that is an increasingly smaller group as we live in times of extremes.

He would've been a great character if he was allowed time to actually be himself and grow into it instead of feeling rushed and forced because of the meth addict pacing.

He's comedic relief with grounding in human normalcy surrounded by unimaginable conflict of literal super powers. They never gave him a chance to shine.

Front National is far right. It's an openly anti-Islam party, which is why the conservatives (the so-called right) and the socialists had to form a coalition to block Front National from winning.

It would be like if Trump was nominated and republicans voted for Clinton to block Trump
>>
>>64067671
You throw out "anti-Islam" as if that sounds extreme. Anti-Islam is the norm here in America.

There's a lot more to being "far right" than being anti-immigration. I'd bet the people in support of Front National still want:
>"free" healthcare
>"free" education
>ebil guns to be banned
>hate speech laws
>big government
>etc ...
>"lower taxes" which are still 500x higher than anything here

>>64061093
the thing is this was actually explained. there are canon stories that lead into The Force Awakens that give back story to Finn, Ray, and Poe. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Before_the_Awakening

Finn was trained since his kidnapping to be an elite trooper. Phasma confirms it in the movie as well as in the book.

Finn's Excellent Adventure: Finn delivers the straight man narrative to every Star Wars cliche in the movie.

I really liked Finn, but his transformation from someone who hates death(including the death of a stormtrooper) to someone who is okay with blasting and shanking through waves of stormtroopers was done too quick.

Like i'm not asking much, but he imo, he should not have shot the stormtroopers during his escape scene with Poe.
Like shoot the missiles and everything, but i would just skip the part where the Tie Fighter gets stuck, or make it so Finn quickly shoots the cable and some machinery.

>>64065243
The actors/characters seemed to have good chemistry and we grew up on Lethal Weapon movies?
>>
>>64066747
Are you sure about that?
1) Ren definitely seems to focus on Finn after the massacre

2) The giant hologram says there has been an awakening, before Rey is ever shown on screen.

3) Finn somehow manages to shrug off the mental "reconditioning" almost immediately and absconds with Poe.

4) When Ren is informed of Poe's escape and that he had help, Ren instantly knows it was Finn.

5) When Finn and Rey are celebrating their escape and ask each other how they did it, they both say the same line, to the affect of "I don't know, I just did it."

6) When Starkiller Base ends the Republic, Finn is inside a ship loading cargo, and hears the multitudes screaming, similar to how Obi-won felt Alderaan's death.

One additional possible clue, I'm not too sure about. Phasma was built up to be this badass and she capitulates to Finn immediately. Why did she bring down the shields without even an argument? Even when informed that she is going to be tossed in a compactor, she doesn't put up a struggle. It could have been a mind trick, but that seems like kind of a stretch. It could also indicate that First Order has factions and it served Phasma's purposes to have Starkiller Base destroyed.

This scene seemed straight out of the prequels. It's stupid as fuck and should've have been in the final cut.

If it's there to establish Han doesn't own the Falcon anymore, that's fucking obvious. It's sat on Jakku for ages and he's nowhere in sight.

>>64058036

Honestly, I liked Finn the character, but his character arc was total nonsense.

The whole movie suffered from it. Felt super rushed. I get that they have the benefit of having 2 more movies to expand on this shit, but the character development and pacing didn't feel good or real at all.

I did end up liking Finn though. Just wish we actually got to explore his character transformation more. He literally became a good guy on demand, and then not, and then yes, and then for realsies.
