WHAT A LET DOWN
PROBABLY A 4/10
Pros: Jakku, BB-8, ChewbaccaThe tone and atmosphere was completely off. Disney's command of the movie becomes apparent very quickly with character interactions and action sequences. It's feels very much in the same vein as Disney's other cinematic universe. This is Disney action movie #143 with Star Wars iconography plastered across it.
The pace of the movie is seriously lacking in care and direction. There is no time to set any of the scenes or build to any set pieces. 4 different characters are trying to be established in the first half hour and because of this, the story never feels like it gets to settle down. And it never does. The movie desperately needed moments of calm and reflection.
The score is possibly the most disappointing aspect of the picture. At no point did it feel like it was used to its potential. Again, the generic soundtrack feels like another Disney trope.
Character development is non existent and we're treated to some of the worst examples of plot armour in recent memory. Rey is an unrealistic character even in a fantasy setting like Star Wars. Her invulnerability makes her far less engaging than she could be. Finn feels like wasted potential. His sole role as the comic relief contradicts his character in many ways and a lot of the time, JJ trades in any sense of tension for a quip from Finn. Ford and Fisher on screen together were distractingly bad. Kylo is very angsty and his obsession with Vader is like a metaphor for this movie.
There isn't a single iconic scene in TFA. At no point does the film feel like its building to a memorable, deliberate set piece. Han dying will be remembered only because it affects the following sequels.
(1/2)
JJ shows that he's a company man in every way. Not a single risk in creativity was taken. The story was paint by numbers from beginning to end. Hiding behind Poetry to justify such a lazy reskin of ANH is bordering on insulting.
It being a kids' movie doesn't excuse it from criticism or scrutiny. Some of the best movies ever made have been aimed at children. A "kids' movie" is not a synonym for poorly made or lacking in ideas. Trying to appeal to children does not exempt it from missing any sense of foreboding or gravitas.
Excuses of it being a part of a series can only go so far. Good movies can exist within themselves as satisfying stand alone films as well as part of a bigger story.
(2/2)
I don't see it as that bad, but all the cuts and sudden scenery switches make it lose the feel of previous Star Wars movies. It's more like a music video.
Also, Snoke is a really stupid name for a villain character. It sounds like a quirky sidekick in a Disney cartoon.
I'm not joking, this movie was literally worse than The Phantom Menace (I never though the prequels were bad anyways)
All those people who said this would be hunger games in space, they were right sadly.
I'm giving it 4/10 too
ITT thread characters that are literally you
>>63833251
I'm literally rust, bros

You're using that wrong, you fucking retards
I can't remember any movies with a totally boring and uncharismatic shut-in NEET though.

Who do you want Rey to end up with?
Do you want her to be BLACKED?
Or spic'd?
Poe is going to end up with Finn and Rey can go fuck herself.
I want her to end up with Ben tbqh
>>63833229
Poe has never met Rey.
#PoexFinn
Got sumthin in the mail /tv/, what could it be?
Hmm
>>63833206
A bluray disc.
Is this the year of badass female characters? Star Wars gave us one for sure, but Gal Gadot might be even more badass than that.
>>63833204
shilling this hard
>lol
>people think she isn't "buff enough" to play WW
wrong again nerds
Was it really necessary? Something to make audiences hate Kylo Ben? Is JJ just a hack?
>>63833200
Ford is old and tired of childrens movies
>>63833200
>Was it really necessary?
Yes, it should've happened earlier even.
Harrison Ford is sick of Star Wars.
>>63833232
If that is confirmed, it makes it a whole lot better than jew jew just killing a character for the sake of feels
Honestly what was his problem? Why was he such a tortured soul? He didn't get laid the whole movie spanning so many years maybe his cock was small?
In all seriousness though what was the meaning of his character if there was supposed to be one?
He wants to get away from everyone.
He hates most people.
He looks at people and sees nothing worth liking.
>>63833203
But why exactly ?
>>63833437
He wants no one else to succeed.
Seriously though, he seems to identify it as something inherent to himself, something he was born with. "If it's in me, it's in you," he ays to his perceived "brother".
He seems to consider being a misanthrope as his own defining character trait.
Was he autistic?
>>63833162
the sith are literally a group for people with autism
name a single sith who didn't act autistic at some point
>>63833205
BASED SHEEV I MISS YOU
>>63833162
dumb enough to glue horns on his head.
What were your exact thoughts when watching this scene for the first time?
It's a big scene
>>63832816
my grandma tried turning it off when she realized it had fart jokes in it.
i made my mom buy me the mystery men soundtrack just because it had all star on it, so i was probably thrilled when i heard it in shrek.
All of these Star Wars threads and you guys fail to ask the most important question.
Does the movie have any meme-worthy dialogue?
TRAITOR
That's it. /tv/ really is the most facebook of boards though for all its meme obsession.
TRAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIITOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRR
>>63832796
Ofc it is!! It's all about bane.. and why does he wear the mask!
Tell me about Snoke. What do we know about him? What are his motives? When will he pull out that little lightsaber of his and go to town?
>>63832753
He is the big bad guy of the trilogy and the one who will possibly kill Luke that is what im sure about. Maybe he will appear more in the next movie.
He's Darth Plagueis
He isSheev who survived the death star
This film single-handedly hereby renders
>most of the books, including the Thrawn Trilogy
>most of the games, including the Dark Forces/Jedi Knight titles
>pretty much all of the comics
non-canon and obsolete.
How does it make you feel that Disney and JJ is telling you all the related merchandise and apocrypha you have bought over the years is now meaningless?
Smart move. 90% of casual moviegoers (ie, the target audience) don't even know the books and games and shit even exist. Why further confuse them by referencing shit they'll never buy?

ITT: Throw away characters that paander and baits the ethnic minority.
