Least memorable character ever.

why did people dislike this movie?
saw it yesterday for the first time and i think it was really good.
can someone explain it to me without using the words: reddit, mary sue, meme ?

Honestly the movie was just too fast.

It seemed like it had to spend time throwing the audience nostalgia instead of taking time with the new characters...like it didn't have it's own identity and HAD to associate itself with the OT.

I didn't hate it, but it could have been done better. I'm holding out hope for EP 8.

The fuck was up with this character?

She's not at all egotistical but has a giant statue of herself on her bar, which is out in a forest with no population center or space port nearby.

Literal fan-fiction, doesn't do anything new, it's the same shit with different characters and faster.

It's not like it doesn't have qualities, but it's annoying to see it get so much praise just for coming after the prequels.
>>
>>67786048
It's a good movie. It's main problem is lack of fresh ideas.

no character development or GOOD character interactions. there's a lot of potential in individual characters but they waste it for call-backs.

Also, Rey's acting was not too good. If they had some backstory for her plethora of skills, I would be more accepting of her, but finding out she's a pilot and a mechanic isn't exactly good storytelling/writing.

Actually the points that are really EASY to dislike can be summed up rather quickly:

>general plot feeling like a rehash of ANH (protagonist on desert planet, rather oblivious to conflict sorrounding him/her, droid containing data vital to one conflict party falls into protagonist's hand, protagonist needs to leave home, finds friends, finds father figure, loses father figure etc. etc.)
>too many "*winkwink*-geddit?"-moments referring to OT (like Finn finding the training ball thing on the Falcon)
>Rey being way too good at what she's doing (while still being a likeable character at least)
>extreme open-endedness of movie – nothing against a little cliff hanger, but that ending was a non-ending, a mere sequel-hook. They could've solved at least ONE question. TESB managed to have an actual and still have you hooked for ROTJ. Even each of the prequels had an actual ending!
>all-CGI-characters and -creatures looked underwhelming (they had Lupita Nyong'o on board and turned her into a friggin talking tangerine. That's just mean!)
>no real sense of urgency or looming danger, actually. You get the feeling that, if Rey hadn't stumbled on BB-8, things could've just gone on like they used to.

I for one still enjoyed the movie. It had the right amount of solid and downright awesome stuff in it to counterbalance its weaknesses but I can perfectly understand why the movie might've left some people disappointed!
>>

>she's a pilot and a mechanic
she literally says that. Just like Luke in ANH.

So, it's pretty much just as out of place as Amidala's Geisha outfit, the two-headed announcer , Midi-Chlorians, death sticks and a 50s diner?

And those are just the things which made think "hey, this isn't Star Wars" when I first watched the prequels all these years ago... And I was only in my early-to-mid teens back then, mind you!
>>
>>67786445

She's a thousand years old. It's possible the original inhabitants of that planet made a temple to her because she was so wise 'n shit, but over the years she repurposed it as an alien gay bar

I was thinking the original films, since VII is distinctly closer to those.
>>
>>67786048
I personally liked it, and think it was MUCH better than the shit prequels (contrarians go fuck yourselves), but it's biggest flaw was>>67786100
its unoriginality. It was basically just a remake of ANH, ESB, and RotJ. "Different" planets with "different" characters.

I have a much better feeling about the next two films, however. It's like JJ got the fanboyism out of his system and passed the sequels onto other directors/writers.
>>
>>67787116
she says she's a pilot when running with Finn from the FO
she knows the Millennium falcon as it was her "master"'s ship and he installed a compressor or smth

It was bad that's why

>>67786048
>Meme about a movie means they hated it
>>
>>67787249
Well, so was I. Compared to the original films, a lot of stuff in the prequels felt out of place and the things I just named were really just those I could name off the top of my head and not having watched the prequels for several years.
