Even the cgi albino orc in the Hobbit was better.
Anyone else think Snoke is not a real giant but only made his hologram look like one.
yea
Yep
Probably.
I reckon he's probably taller than a human, maybe between 7 and 8 feet?
But then again I'm obsessed with the idea that he could be Plageius.
Why did he wake up
they better come up with an explaination
>>63777601
What do you mean? He was just asleep and forgot to set his alarm. He overslept.
he was in the sleep mode because Luke disappeared
he woke up because Luke woke up, ergo The Force Awakens
how did R2 know that Luke woke up is a mistery though, maybe Luke texted him saying wake up f͏͏a͏͏m
R2 is a force powered robot
>Hire actors from The Raid
>they have no action scenes
makes sense...
>>63777593
I was so hyped for these guys, they didn't fucking do anything. Holy shit why.
What's wrong with hiring competent actors for bit parts? They had to spend that 200 million somewhere.

> Mad Dog in the movie for less than 60 seconds
> No silat against Solo or Rey
> Obviously a cocktease for a fight in Ep. VIII or IX.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
How do we stop the patriarchy from winning all of the time
The only way to win is not to play

>BB was thought to be female
But literally every robot of note in the series is called he/him.
So who thought BB was a girl and why?
Good thing Rian won't shoehorn in any female droids.
Why is this allowed?
I know JJ is jewish but come on
Hux doing the maniac speech with Hitler-like gestures, stormtroopers saluting with one hand up in the air
Probably the sexiest thing in the movie imho.
>>63777458
Cuz plebs need to be shown that the First Order is bad, yo.
That scene was fucking great. Showed exactly how fanatical the First Order is. I wanted to murder republic scum at that moment.

>TV-show runner J. J. Abrams brings his game-changing banality to the Star Wars franchise. He follows the template as originated by Lucas and appeals to adolescent thralldom, keeping the brand recognizable. The Force Awakens is paced better than Star Wars’ other dismal episodes, yet it’s even more impersonal. There’s no visual or spiritual excitement, as there was even in a cynical sci-fi product like Ridley Scott’s Prometheus. Abrams is making product to salute the cultural and economic status quo. With Star Wars, product has not only taken the place of art; it has replaced myth.
STARFAGS BTFO, JJ ON SUICIDE WATCH
>Everyone knows the Star Wars series peaked with that confrontation in The Empire Strikes Back (1980) between Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) and the villain, Darth Vader (played on screen by David Prowse, but voiced by James Earl Jones).
>The “Luke, I am your father” revelation resonated because it expressed how George Lucas, like his movie-brat peers (Coppola, Bogdanovich, Scorsese, Spielberg, De Palma) struggled with Sixties generational ambivalence. A father–son antagonism resounds through all their films as a reflection of Vietnam-era student protests and the privilege of those draft-dodging filmmaker progeny. Even Lucas, in his escapist outer-space mode, iterated the era’s unease, culminating in Luke’s fear and symbolic castration.
>It’s seldom realized that the movie brats’ films are essentially conservative, politically speaking. Yet, in the new millennium, filmgoers’ superficial political awareness makes them nostalgic for Star Wars to maintain the gullibility of their youth. Longing for innocence is all that the insipidness of the latest sequel, The Force Awakens, signifies. When director J. J. Abrams re-stages that primal moment, he does it for brand recognition, but so unimaginatively that it feels hackneyed. Even though it’s meant to be painful for rabid Star Wars fanatics, it lacks mythological significance. Star Wars fans are not required to think metaphorically, so any Oedipal meaning is lost (although there is something of millennial ingratitude in the new filial confrontation), just as the original scene’s impact was ignored in subsequent sequels.
THE KING
>The new characters in The Force Awakens are banal. John Boyega’s black superhero, Finn, updates and restyles Han Solo’s jockish heroism — a cultural evolution that evokes Obama (“I was taken from a family I’ll never know”) for global commercialism. Boyega is appealing-enough to surpass the series’ previous racial tokens, Billy Dee Williams and Samuel L. Jackson, but he is subordinate to the new gallantry of Daisy Ridley’s Rey, who embodies the female empowerment denied to Princess (now General) Leia. Rey “leans in” when she grips the Skywalker light saber, so that feminists can rejoice at the Disney Corporation’s calculated political correctness (although Rey’s competence with weaponry contradicts liberals’ convenient attitudes toward gun control.)
>By now we all should know that there’s nothing of adult interest in Star Wars. Even when it premiered back in 1977, the sci-fi premise and comic-book characters were eclipsed artistically by the visionary spirituality of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Yet the continued prominence of Star Wars signifies something that is politically serious, if not dreadful: The great renaissance of American filmmaking during the 1970s and its regeneration of film culture (when movies were seen as a vital means of approaching and understanding contemporary experience) were doomed by Star Wars’ pseudo-imaginative, non-campy rehash of escapist junk. Now, the rebooted, politically empty The Force Awakens suggests a boot stuck in the rear of film culture’s flabby remains.

IT' S JUST ONE OF THOSE DAYS...
I have never seen any of the prequels so I'm just going from 4-7 here, sorry for my lack of Star Wars knowledge but...
Did anyone else think this one kinda sucked? Not much happened and the few things that did happen were just references to episode 4
5>4>3>6>7>2>1
I think it did a good job of setting up the next film. It was a rehash but it introduced new characters. It was interesting. I'm still thinking about it. I'm not sure if I like what JJ did with the force.Rey got really powerful in a pretty short amount of time.
>>63777194
I agree with it doing a good job setting up the next film.
Man but that rogue stormtrooper really ruined it for me. I didn't know these guys were supposed to think for themselves, didn't feel right watching one take off his helmet
Is it possible that he's still alive?
He's an old man that's had his heart, possibly spine, and at least his lungs, impailed by a lightsaber. Then there's the fall.
Doesn't look good, m8.
>>63777103
Literally 0% and needs a resurrection.
Leia reacted immediately when he died.
>>63777103
>wanting to be told the odds
So who noticed the grave at the island next to standing luke?
There is a grave next to his feet...
>>63777089
Your point? there are ruins all over that island.
>>63777126
Must've been that academy Luke was building up until Kylo turned heel.Dat grave was likely one of his fallen padawan.
>>63777089
He's in scotland.
>b-b-but there are plot holes everywhere! it doesn't make sense!
Well guess what you moron, it's a fucking Star Wars movie. There's been plot holes and badly written characters since Episode IV.
>b-b-but it's a glib facsimile of ANH
No, the story is intentionally similar, but it works well because it brings new things to the table: a humanisation of Stormtroopers and the Sith/Empire/First Order, finally a concrete idea of what the bad guys do and why it's so bad, a better villain than Darth Vader, and a better pacing.
It's not perfect, there's no clearly-defined goal for the rest of the trilogy, the music is lacking, and there's way too many "well that's convenient" moments and cheesy one-liners, but once again it's a 2015 blockbuster, even Fury Road had some of those and that didn't make it a bad movie.
Just accept that it's a pretty solid movie.
Its a solid movie and overall better than anything I expected from this tired franchise and JJ
Its a rehash of the original but so are other sequels
>>63776765
it's good movie won't make 1.5 billion dollars anon
Admit Disney is the king of mediocre, remakes and sequels
But I did enjoy it. It's pretty much an epitome of a 7/10 action flick, it's pretty good
Jesus she was wooden as hell. She nearly sunk the entire film. I feel bad for her. Zero personality.
>Critics and fans are saying she gave an incredible performance
>/Tv/ is saying she sucked
Wow! How shocking!
>>63776740
>her reaction to Han dying
Anyone calling that incredible should be shot
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH I'M CRYING
so now that he's gotten laid, where else is there for this show to go?
married
To the finale.
What do you think he screamed as he climaxed?
