Can someone tell me how such an average movie can get such a high rating on RT and BvS got such a low rating.
>>68076240

Naw naw, you got it all wrong. It's a fun flick!
>>68076317

>>68076317
Well BvS sucked so that explains why it got such a low rating.
Can't tell you why TFA did so well. I liked it but not that much
>>68076240
Crappy worldbuilding.
>>68076314
What about Rogue One?
they'll like it once red leddit media tells them it was good
>>68076240
It's only the extremely vocal reddit population that like it.

>FORCED feminism - I don't care if the main character is a girl, but the "I don't need help/don't hold my hand" shit got old quick
>Fin was too much of a pussy - I guess it was part of the whole feminism thing, but I thought he was supposed to be a minority too, so they don't have to make him a complete bitch
>Leia's botox was showing hard
It's literally a movie for 12 year olds - but my question is whether there is anything appealing even to them in it. Like holy fuck, if you think about it, it could be compared to that second Starship Troopers low-budget shitpile.

Oh, and every character has the mentality of an American manchild. Not the decent Americans - the stereotypical American yelling "whoo" on every occasion and hugging it out like a retard.
Also, so much for storm troopers actually becoming competent. And trollol no shielding on x-wing at start.
/tv/ is always wrong.
>>68076856
whatever fag
They should have casted Ben Mendelsohn as the main villain for the new trilogy. Had him be a young commander who climbed the ranks of the Empire after RoTJ and ended up becoming the leader of it by the time of TFA. Would have been better than Hux who seems way to young and Snoke. Kylo obviously stays the same.
>>68076240
i thought it was alright but here's what usually happens for blockbusters
>movie is released
>fans and shills post on /tv/ about how they love it
>rest of board dislikes it
>fans quiet down after a few months
>rest of board still dislikes it
>>68076904
They had perfect source material for these shitty movies - the Thrawn Trilogy, which actually has a good fucking story, and a good fucking villain. But their intent was to target early teens, it seems. But again - would this really even appeal to them?
>>68076240
women should not be the main heroes in movies, also they shouldn't have had a baboon in it. They really ruined my immersion with a space monkey in it.
>>68076240
It's a cold emotionless capitalist husk of a movie
I saw it. I enjoyed it. Now I'm done. No replay value. It's dead to me.
>>68076991
Ben would have killed it as a Thrawn type Villian. Such a waste to have him be the main Villian in some spinoff. The first order was such a joke.

Everybody got to see it finally. I thought it was gonna the best thing ever the way people praised it here. It turned out to be one the most boring blockbusters I can remember in some time. Literally, Some Boring Shit Happens + Han Dies: The Movie. Zero desire to sit through it again.

>>68076240
That blonde kid shouldn't be a general. Leia Solo should have remained a diplomat in the New Republic. There should have been more political drama. What the fuck was the point of "Captain Phasma"? What kind of comic shit name is that? What the fuck kind of title is "Supreme Leader"? Are we in North Korea?
The whole "First Order" shit was overdone. It came off entirely as some comic book archvillainy bullshit. Imperial Remnant with a council of Moffs was a million times more interesting. Not sure why they would just toss that brilliance out of the window when we had this brilliant man in the first episode.
6/10
>>68076240
I always thought it was an average rehash of the first Star Wars with a sterile, female Luke and none of Lucas's originality in terms of scenery and locale (things that were still good even in the prequels). I think a lot of folks were nostalgia blinded and are now coming out of it
>>68079143
I never said the dark side was good. The dark side and the empire are objectively evil but why do villains have to be pushovers and not threatening? Star wars is a black and white universe but I fail to see how the villains have to be such a joke. The empire never looked like one in the first two films of the OT though I will grant you that they became one on RoTJ.
>>68076240
/tv/ started out "hating" it and now that it's available in everyones basement reviews have grown more mixed.
>>68078472
>>68078680
Pretty sure it was just used to show that she had some melee training, displaying that she would have some inherit skill in handling a lightsaber unlike Finn.
>>68076317
I'd add 10 points to BvS and subtract 10 points from TFA but it was still a superior popcorn flick. BvS was moronic.
>>68079235
Pretty much what I see on here nonstop
>>68079348
>unlike Finn
I think it's implied that he would have some form of training considering Traitorbro had that melee weapon thing. Albeit, Finn a shit and isn't a Mary Sue, so he got his shit fucked by him and Kylo Ren.
>>68076240
We don't hate it. In fact we seem to like it more than when it first came out.
Thoroughly in between IV+V and the rest of the series and /tv/ is admitting that more and more frequently, probably now that the normies are forgetting about it.

Tell me, is she appealing because she's so average looking that it inspires you to believe you could get a similar looking girl? Or do you just have shit taste?
>>68079793
>better

>>68079793
I haven't really understood this but why is Jurassic World hated for being too close to the original but Star Wars isn't? If they cast an old Sam Neill or Jeff Goldblum would it have received great reception?

>A soulless rehash of 4 is better than 6
6 was good, 4 was great and 5 is excellent. 7 is just plain average.
>>68076799
dubs confirm
>>68076240
>he wasn't around when it first released and /tv/ was nothing but prequel-apologist troll shitposters shitting on TFA
>>68080017
6 swerved between a couple iconic scenes propped up partially by nostalgia to downright prequel-stupid scenes. Put 6 beside 7 and try to be objective for once.
>>68079996
I'm engaged, and sincerely wouldn't post pictures of someone I care for on 4chan. Also, I never said Ridley was unattractive, simply that it'd be bad taste to have her as a waifu. She's bland.
>>68080017
Average to what? It's far and away better than every other PG13 blockbuster and easily better than VI and the prequels.
>but muh emotional vader luke emperor standoff at the very end!
>>68076991
>thrawn trilogy good
i see your thrawn and raise you Luuuke skywalker
>>68080017
I can understand some criticisms of VII but soullessness was not one of them. The only characters that lacked soul were Fisher and to a lesser extent Ridley.
>>68080017
i would even go so far as to say it is a glib facsimilie of 4
>>68080054
>/tv/ was nothing but prequel-apologist troll shitposters shitting on TFA
That's literally /tv/ everyday for the last 6-7 months. It's actually astonishing the depths they will plumb to make the prequels out to be absolut kinographi, but synderfags are quickly topping them in the pure bullshit department.
>>68080091
Why do you think I'm a waifu fag in the first place? Because the hilarious looking and fitting reaction image happens to be a girl? Get a grip, kiddo. Maybe I'd use one of nigger Boyega if there were any.
>>68076240
Initially everyone was happy with it because it wasn't as blatantly terrible as the prequels. Almost immediately we raised our expectations for what a new Star Wars movie should be. Now everyone is nit-picking every detail of the movie, comparing it to some mythical notion of the quality of the original trilogy. That and a lot of butt-blasted /pol/ folks that are triggered by anything.
>>68080107
You do know that whole Luuuuke Skywalker shit was an April Fool's joke right? It was never considered canon even before Disney bought Star Wars.
>>68080091
Your fiancée must be close to a 10 for you to consider Ridley bland. She's not the hottest thing in Hollywood right now but she's very good looking.
>>68079321
>>68079143

>>68080063
You can't use the argument of 6 being propped up by nostalgia then say 7 is objectively better. Not that I'm entirely disagreeing, but again it's easier for me to like a good but flawed movie more than a movie directly constructed to ape 4 except for the parts that gave it the most charm.
>>68079825
"=>" instead of ">="
>>68080153
pshh, nothin' personnel kid...
>>68080172
I would consider her about as attractive as Ridley, actually. I've always been more successful in relationships where I'm the better looking one for some reason.
>>68080208
I'm not saying VII is objectively better. I'm saying people generally aren't comparing the two objectively. I'm not even a VII fan, I more just don't understand why VI gets such a pass just for being in the OT (for example saying it had "charm"). It truly wasn't any good.
>>68080304
Don't tell her you consider her about as attractive as someone you find bland-looking.
>>68076240
>now
/tv/ hated it before it came out
>>68080370
Not him, but I think people only really hate VI for the Ewoks. Almost everytime I ask why someone hates it they just say "The fucking Ewoks dude", while overlooking the space battle and the throne room scene which, in my opinion, was the best scene in the saga (that or the whole carbonite chamber).
>>68080370
It gets a pass by way of being less shit than the prequels and not a complete rehash of 4 or 6. Note that I described 4 as charming, not 6.
After watching 7 I went back to the OT wanting to see how I felt about it. I still liked all of them better, despite issues I had with 6 because it still added new setpieces and scenery and wasn't paint-by-numbers that was The Force Awakens. I'm not saying 'Jedi is a fucking revelation to film, but that it did more right than 'Awakens did when it wasn't copying 4 shot for shot.
>>68080409
Thanks for the advice, dad, but I think that saying it to strangers on an anonymous image board is a far cry from telling someone you love their physical beauty is not a strong attribute.
Went shopping today and hit up a few stores, most of which had movie sections. Each stocked to the brim with tfa, every single copy just sitting there. I asked if they restocked recently but all I got was the same answer "Nope, nobody's buying it."
The movie made its money on pure name and nostalgia, now that it's past normies/reditumblr don't care anymore, despite what the shills here will have you believe.
>>68080429
In my opinion it's not just the ewok scenes. The whole film besides what you mentioned just feels so weak and disjointed.
>>68080538
>I asked if they restocked recently
No you didn't. That's autistic as fucking hell.
>>68076240
I think people are just blinded by nostalgia and hype. Keep in mind the majority of people liked The Phantom Menace when it came out.

It wasn't just the goddamn ewoks. The whole movie just felt like they ran out of steam. It had a couple good scenes and concepts and they built a movie around them and slapped on a denouement.

I was at a restaurant with my wife a few weeks ago.
My wife went to the bathroom and told me when she got back, that when she walked in a woman was taking the loudest piss she ever heard, like someone running a bath with both taped turned on fully. My wife peed, washed her hands and was fixing her hair and lipstick when the woman finally stopped, my wife waited around to see the monster that had unleashed that torrent in the cubicle next to her (who at this point was still going), expecting some giant hamplanet, imagine my wife's surprise when the piss finally stopped and out walked Daisy Ridley.
My wife said she was already going when she walked in and went for at least a further two minutes, her flowing only slowing in the last 10 seconds or so.
>>68080742
It's okay, some people have problems talking to others. There's no reason to to point out how they have failed as simple human beings.
just rewatched a few days ago, enjoyed it for the most part. but when they do the cantina scene and there's all these great practical creatures and aliens, then it's like outta nowhere this goofy ass cartoon character screams HAN SOLOOO. triggered the fuck out of me tbpfwy. this character was just a lame plot device that could've been done any number of ways better than what they went with.
that and death star 3 are my only real complaints with the flick famly

the whole hike to Luke Skywalker was pretty pointless
could've made a much grander scene with him waiting right at the landing area or some landing pad
>>68080900
Better late than never I guess, maybe in episode 8 they'll have him come back as a clone since jj basically left the movie nowhere else to go. Rey will probably absorb Luke's powers via forcevagina while Finn and Poe go do a buddy cop thing, Kylo... Well he's going to probably just slash a few more rooms until he gets his mochiatto.

Has happened before, but TFA has been controversial on this board for a while, OP.
>>68081002
It's a piss pasta actually
It's a fun movie and about as good as you can expect from Star Wars in the modern era.
Not great, but better than the prequels. Hopefully Rey gets some actual character development in 8 instead of being a Mary Sue again.
its mostly butt hurt DCucks

There is no "/tv/" anymore. This board is made up of reddit, tumblr, facebook, and other cancerous shit that was brought here when that awful movie came out. No one besides them even browse here anymore.
I mean, there's not even Bane threads anymore. I've never seen such a sharp drop in quality of anything ever. Worst board on the site, even worse than /x/.
>>68081115
>Worst board on the site, even worse than /x/
Whoa anon, lets not say things we can't take back here.
Most people here disliked the movie since it came out, that's not new. But the holdouts are starting to flip on it to because the hype that blinded them to the flaws when the movie was new has faded away. That tends to happen with movies like this.
>>68080104
No, it's not. It's better than episodes I and II, but certainly not III or VI.
Everyone I know who has the other Star Wars movies on disc has episode VII on disc too. I don't hang out with kids though.

>>68079793
Lel TFA could barely even be more pleb. It's firmly in the same group as capeshot, and not even as.good as several capeshit movies
I don't know if there's a name for it but I get a really strange feeling, like I'm not in the right world, I'm in an alternate universe that I'm not suppose to be in. When Disney bought Star Wars the course changed, and now everything feels weird, When I see all this new trashy Star Wars garbage I know it's not right, it feels off. It seems petty for this to be over just star wars, but I'm telling yeah, something's wrong, it wasn't suppose to be this way.
>>68076240
There are people who prefer TFA to the OT movies, because it's "contemporary and modern." How do we stop this?
/tv/ has always "hated" TFA. Hate is not the right word, it's just a boring forgettable Disney formulaic flick not worth re-watching or talking about.
We don't love it anymore simply because the marketing shills are done with this place, until Rogue One that is.

For the rest of our lives, constant crappy Star Wars films.

For someone so heavily marketed, I didn't expect Captain Phasma to do LITERALLY NOTHING in the whole movie. Maybe next time, if someone dug her out of the trash compactor before the planet exploded.
>>68082447
so she's the new Boba Fett?
>>68082803
Seems like it. Doesn't do much in the first movie, probably will do a lot of cool things in the second movie, then she'll die like a little bitch in the third movie.
