KEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEK!
ANIMEFAGS ABSOLUTELY BTFO!
Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse
Serious question: why is this allowed?
ITT: Critically, financially successful or cult films that you do not get the appeal over
Pic related, this film is complete dogshit yet has a massive following

Citizen Kane
Can someone please confirm that this image of Luke was in one of the trailers or some form of media before the movie was released?
I really need to know...
>>63783943
it's probably fake
Nope, the only shot of him was him hooded and knelt next to R2, his face wasn't included in the trailers at all.
>>63783943
Nope, it's some anon's photo's from a theater. Luke's only promotional appearance was his hand on R2D2 in one of the trailers.
/tv/ and the trolls can't accept the fact this is the best Star Wars movie out since 1983.
You wanted it to suck, but it didn't. How disappointed are you guys? Is trashing TFA a new meme?
No, I liked it.
>best Star Wars movie out since 1983.
what an accomplishment
>>63783833
Why do they keep his helmet?
Apparently, cut-throat career women don't make very caring long-term partners... who knew!?
The high-cheeked anorexic lady in this movie even started the relationship with a direct threat to the older married guy's current position in the firm--and we are to believe this is a good basis for a movie relationship?
The movie itself deserves some extra credit for its critique on the broadcast medium to make and control messiahs and being prophetic on the direction fox news would take. But it is very hard to see it as anything other than existentialist bait...

I didn't really like it. I don't think it functioned well as a movie, and a lot of the satire was kind of boring and masturbatory. I dunno, maybe it was more fresh in the 70s.
>>63783796
Nothing
I hated this movie too.
It seems like cool scenes the screen writer thought of during his time in the shitter that has been attached together. There is no main plot, no main message, it's trying to tell too many stories at once that doesn't relate.
I think edgy teens who listen to the monologue were the only fans of the movie because "it expressed what I was thinking in word form and stuff!!"
I see nothing great about this movie.
>>63783827
This shit won awards in its day, I can't quite work it out. must have been so "brave" to say this sort of stuff back then. But that only makes it sort of historically significant now.
>mfw I realized SW7 sucks and Lucas wasn't that bad, he was actually good
nice face faggot
Why are people so afraid to admit that they liked the prequels? Yeah there are things that sucked about them but I liked them.
The biggest complaint is Jar Jar but he's barely in the movie.
>>63783809
nobody will be afraid now since those are better than 7 and 7 is the new hot shit
>Kermode likes SW TFA.
How surprising :\
>Hates the originals
>Hates the prequels
>Likes TFA
He loves Indiana Jones, but then will go on about how a story from a film he hates is "a bit George Lucas" as an insult, like hello who do you think came up with the story
He loves JJ Abrams so what did I expect
I like this guy but damn some of his opinions are just insane
>Loves Twilight, hates Star Wars
>Loves the Minions, hates Pirates...

He's a feminist of course he bloody likes the movie.
That said he is still a great reviewer. Comfy to listen to

Help us, Armond White, you're our only hope...
Good things:
>Kylo Ren has more character development than any other villain. doesnt just exist to have a lightsaber duel like General Grievous, Darth Maul or Count Dooku.
>Snoke is actually spooky
>Captain Phasma isn't some "girl power" bullshit and is literally put in the trash
>Not too much fan service
Bad Things:
>Lightsabers require no training to use. A stormtrooper with no training can hold...

famo the entire movie is fan service

>I got to the theatre late and had to sit at the front so my neck hurt a little
I will always appreciate this subtle bait
>>Bizarre pacing. 20 minutes devoted to fighting squids and mercs while important things are hurried/cut
It added some quick action and reintroduced the sly, charismatic, charmer that Han was/is. They needed to do that to develop his character tomake his death more impactful
>>Too much goes unexplained. Star Killer BTFO's several planets. We don't know which planets they are or if they matter. Things like Ren's ancient lightsaber and Snoke can be mysteries for a later time, but things...

Jesus Christ, what went wrong?
He literally morphed into Axel Rose.
All things considered though, he's pretty well adjusted. He took a lot of abuse as a kid.
He does his iconic scream at the end of the credits. based.

>listen to the dialogue
>this is a Home Alone sequel
why do people think the stormtroopers aren't clones? I thought the movies made it pretty clear that they're all clones of jango fett
Clones are still there, but as they died they were phased out for regular schmucks.
>>63783523
The 2 retards on the left dont know how to put their left boot on
>>63783523
even ignoring the old EU (which explains it) and the new EU (which also explains it) you can find your answer
it is never implied, stated, or hinted in any of the 7 movies that they are all still clones
in a new hope Luke mentions the imperial academy and in the rest of the OT there are the imperial officers, who are obviously promoted stormtroopers
the problem lies in with YOU because some reason you thought they were all clones
So what was Prometheus doing at the beginning of the movie?
Spreading live on the dead planet.
Name of that planet was Earth.
They created live as we know. In order to create live, he had to sacrifice himself.
>>63784630
you mean life
>>63783474
this movie was so dumb its not worth discussing.
>Every Storm Trooper is a clone of this guys father
Why did they do this?
>>63783294
>why does a movie for children have a retarded story?
gee, i don't know.
>>63783294
>every stormtrooper is a clone.
Stopped reading there.
>>63783294
Jango Fett was one of the few humans able to kill a Jedi with conventional weapons and/or hand to hand combat. The clones were low-key designed to be jedi killers, makes sense to make an infamous jedi killer your blueprint for an army of jedi killers doesn't it? Also clones aren't storm troopers, the clones were retired after Ep 3
Why are all characters in Melancholia ridiculously rich?
Is it intended to make us unsympathetic for them?
>>63783283
It's getting cold, isn't it?
>>63783283
Melancholia is a rich men's problem.
>>63783283
You ever watch the play "You Can't Take It With You"? Usually disaster movies show how helpless the poor masses will be but the super rich would be equally helpless against a comet smashing into the earth.
Why did he turn to the dark side?
>>63783177
sand
to beat up his bullies

Arnold didn't get him a Turbo Man doll for Christmas.
Do the cross blades actually do anything in this movie or they just there to be cool/different
go see it fucking loser
Do light sabers radiate any heat outside the visible light?
