I'm seeing it again next weekend with my dad who didn't see it with me yet. Excited to see his reaction, he introduced me to Star Wars with the VHS collector's edition or whatever it was called.

I just saw it for the first time tonight and I don't get why you would see it again, I didn't find myself engaged with the film at all until Luke showed up.

People are only seeing it several times because they feel they MUST see it. It's pure hype. "

"Everybody is seeing it! I've already seen it with this group of people, but i must see it again with this other group of people or else i'll be cut off!"

That's the secret of a successful blockbuster. Quality has nothing to do with it. People will pay multiple times if you tell them they MUST and if everybody is doing it as well.
>>
>>64181613

how is it not? it's a marvel movie where the heroine is given a grab bag of new superpowers and then does battle with an evil version of herself, with various other characters introduced so they can be toys. The plot is a meaningless pastiche of previous movies in the series constructed as an excuse to string together various scenes on their checklist

> a desert scene
> a cantina scene
> a trench run scene

what makes this arrangment of contextless lights, colours and explosions more watchable than any other Marvel or Michael Bay movie? Are laser swords and x wings just that much more powerful of a meme than transforming robots or big green guys?

The characters have deeper and more interesting dynamics than anything you'd find in capeshit. I assume you haven't been here when Age of Ultron or other capeshit was released, but I promise it didn't elicit discussion as indepth as TFA on /tv/

I saw it 3 times but only paid twice

Once, obviously as soon as it came out. Stayed in the cinema until the lads came round to watch it with them. Gauging their reactions to scenes I already knew was happening, etc. They were keen to it.

Finally saw it this past weekend when I took a bird on a date because I wanted to do something I wanted to enjoy and she wanted to spend time with me so we just watched it again.

Enjoyed it all three times. Found Kylo Ren and Leia to be much better the 3rd time round.
>>
>>64181850

>The characters have deeper and more interesting dynamics than anything you'd find in capeshit.

It was a Thor movie. Seriously, it was a Thor movie.

First scene in the desert
next scenes in bars
end of the movie inside a space thing where a thing blows up
family killing each other
funny lee character making
funny lee old character being old

It was a Thor movie.

Sure, cool. That still doesn't change that the movie was basically a Thor flick.

There's nothing deep about it. Finn and Poe met for minutes and became best pals, Finn met Rey for hours and fell in love, Rey met Han for a bit and cried when he died and so on. Han's death felt meaningless. People only care because it's Han, an old character that they miss. If that was a new character nobody would give a fuck.

Even Thor/Loki fight had more emotion than that.

Everyone needs to see the movie at least twice. You miss so many things just by watching it once and everything makes much more sense after repeated viewings.

Like Rey doesn't know how she was able to fly the Millennium Falcon that well nor does Finn know how he was able to shoot that well.
Rey learn about Force powers by reverse reading Kylo Ren's mind when he tries reading her mind.
In the fight with Kylo Ren, Rey is pretty much on the defensive the entire time until she focuses and catches him by surprise.

Really the only fault with the movie is the pacing is a little too fast and you miss all these details in the first viewing. Plus everything is explained by the Force which is back to being a mystical thing that causes tons of weird things to happen instead of though years of training you can tap into the midichlorians to use the Force.

Disney only cares about money. They have to make three times its budget to break even. Right now its barely edged over the 250million. This adjusted with international earnings. China most likely will be a flop.

>>64179951
People are only seeing it multiple times because they feel like they have some sort of obligation to go do it or else they will lose their nerd cred. In fact all the "hype" for this movie are people pretending they give a shit about Star Wars because they feel like they have to.

Jurassic park was top 10 for like 16weeks. Star Wars might not reach that. If will probably stay there, but Batman V Superman will steal the audience.

There is a MERICA movie coming out in a few weeks. That's going to kill star wars. Anything that involves Merica and killing arabs is always a box office hit. Star wars is barely going to nudge 1.3 billion.

You guys should watch the latest Bazinga theory episode. Will Wheaton tells the viewers that star wars take the series too seriously and regardless whether its good or not nothing will change tomorrow. Star Wars movies were made to sell toys and other cheap merchandise. They're popcorn movies with a one dimensional story line. I watched the movies when I'm bored and I don't like the movies. I only liked the vidya because those were fun. Star Wars is a shit series and you guys know it. I don't care they made a billion, good for them. Not that I care. /tv/ is filled with whiny edgelords.

Hell no. This was a non stop action flick all the way. It's literally just a moden action flick with the staf wars brand. Even the perfumes knew when to take it slow and not force action into everything to help make the action scenes feel more exciting from the talking scenes.

Why? It's not an air cushion vehicle.

Repulsor lifts operate by pushing away from gravity. There's no reason they would kick up dust.

And since they use no moving parts there's also no reason they have to produce sound.

Saw it twice.
liked it better the second time, still annoyed with rei and the obvious deathstar ripoff though. Finn had potential but got cucked, poe was pretty cool, han was great. Until he was dead. Kylo ren was an interesting character but got all cucked when he fought rei.
basically everything was cool until rei inexplicably cucked them at the end

I saw it three times. I don't know why. I don't usually see movies in the theater more than once.

Part of it is because it was really good, but it's mostly because I have the other six films cemented into my brain, and I wanted to do the same with this one as soon as possible. I don't want to go through any period where it's a movie I only somewhat remember because I hadn't seen it since it came out in theaters.

I'm just imagining this guy rampaging around his house in a fit comparable to kylo's. his mother asks him what's wrong but he can only spout /tv/ memes, coupled with maniacal laughter. From the corner of his eye he spots an ad for TFA on a television. he goes silent before turning to his parents.

the police were called, the family were declared dead at the scene.

Star Wars is a substitute for religion for a lot of its fans. it's impossible for them to accept that they're wasting their time and money because of the sunk cost fallacy.

the only meaningful difference with TPM is that tickets cost more.

And Rey is obviously special, probably because of her lineage. Of course she's not as good of a character as Luke cause Luke's the best damn character in Star Wars.
