What was the point of this character?
Marketing
>>63763552
To become the third Sith Lord. Darth Japan.
Didn't you get tons of World War 2 vibes? Italy is Ren, Supreme Commander is Germany, and she's going to be Japan.
USA is Rey, Finn is Britain, and Russia is going to come in the next movie.
Then the final movie is going to be a huge 3v3 battle that ends with Ren killing Germany and Japan to redeem himself.

Wait, so...why the fuck did they need the WHOLE map to find Luke Skywalker? They already had the ending piece. Isn't that like, the only piece you need? It's a straight line, and you have the ending. That's literally all you need. If someone gave me a destroyed map but the destination was still marked, you don't fucking need the rest of the map.
They fucking explain it in the film
The piece BB-8 had featured a star system nobody knew about. They needed the entire map to work out where the star system was

didn't you watch the fucking movie you spastic?
they needed to link the ending piece to the entire map which was the whole reason as to why BB-8 needed to return to the resistance. c3po also said the ending peice didnt match any recorded space system they know
>"I encounter civilians like you all the time. You believe the Empire is continually plotting to do harm. Let me tell you, your view of the Empire is far too dramatic. The Empire is a government. It keeps billions of beings fed and clothed. Day after day, year after year, on thousands of worlds, people live their lives under Imperial rule without seeing a stormtrooper or hearing a TIE fighter scream overhead."
>"Multiple species, with multiple viewpoints and racial philosophies, simply cannot hold power together for long. The dominant voice must certainly be wise enough to adopt ideas and methods from its allies and member peoples. But there must be a dominant voice, or there is only chaos. In this part of the galaxy, that voice is the Empire."
>"If the Republic has no slavery, how is it you understand the concept?"
>"The fortunes of war rise and fall, and you may be assured that the Rebellion will be repaid in full for their destruction of the Peremptory at the Katana fleet skirmish. But that repayment will occur in the context of our overall strategy. Not as an act of private vengeance."
>"Do you know the difference between an error and a mistake, Ensign? Anyone can make an error, Ensign. But that error doesn't become a mistake until you refuse to correct it."
>"Learn about art, Captain. When you understand a species' art, you understand that species."
>"I've spent many hours studying Bothan art, Captain, and I understand the species quite well. There's no doubt at all that Councilor Fey'lya will play his part beautifully. As beautifully as if we were pulling his strings directly."

For those who've seen it, does it reinforce Abraham's reputation of being a hack?
>>63763006
No hes the master of the ReSequel.
He electrified the cast to be more powerful archetypes of the Original Trilogy
He also electrified the plot the moon star base is now a planet instead of it killing one planet it kills like 5...
Basically he did Star Trek 2009 with Star Wars but he made it even more of a COPY PASTE plot.
>>63763006
JJ is a copycat with no good ideas that can end up releasing a good or at least acceptable product.
George Lucas is a man full of ideas, but since some of them are horrible he needs to be controlled or else he will end up releasing an inferior product.
>>63763064
More of a reboot than a sequel? Feels like Daniel Craig bond films.
Which one are you?

Just terrible. Sony could do better by firing everybody and replacing them with random people picked up off of the street.
Those posters are pretty good though. Movie will still be shit.
How many weeks until pulled
I'm not getting enough spoilers. Please post everything you know about the movie. I need all the details!
Movie begins with "top rebel pilot" getting Droid with map piece that would lead rebels to Luke Skywalker's location, as he has dissapeared. Rebel is in a village which gets attacked by the Empire (can't remember the fucking name) and everyone gets killed, except for Rebel Pilot who is a prisoner, Finn is there too and has hurt feelings over this. Ball droid which has the map runs off and runs into the girl, who's called Ray which is a boy's name desu. (Not Rei). Finn helps Poe, who is the rebel pilot, escape from the Star Destroyer and they crash land back on notTantooine, with Poe """"""dying"""" (he comes back later). Finn and Ray escape planet on the millenium Falcoln which was conviniently in a junkyard, alongside robot. They're captued by Han Solo's ship, who was looking for the Falcoln. Hijninks ensue and they end up on a world that has a Cantina on it where the girl, Ray, find's Luke's lightsaber but won't pick it up. Coruscant gets blown up the notDeath Star, which was pretty funny desu, then some shit happens I sort of just tuned out. Kylo kills Han then nearly kills Finn and the stronk indipendent womyn beats him back to R9K, but he doesn't die. Red Squadran, including Poe, blows up the Death Star XVI
Overall I give it 6/10. Effects were good at times and the sound quality was decent
>>63762685
Oh, R2D2 has the rest of the map and was inactive until the end of the film when they put the map together and Rayyyyylamo brings the lightsaber to Luke. Kylo was Han and Leia's kid, if that wasn't obvious. The only good villain was English Star Wars Hitler who was getting shit done. The silver armour stormtrooper is complete and utter shit and gives up right away, she turns off the shields so they can blow up the deathstar. Lesson learned, don't hire women. I find it funny that Finn was all upset about the civvies dying during the landing but doesn't bat an eye and killing his former comrades.
And Ray is Luke's Daughter

Just for the sake of comparison, this link shows the very first Phantom Menace user reviews on IBDM, from May of 1999:

>You will not be disappointed.
>A welcome addition to the "Star Wars" Franchise
>Great as a film, but just good as a Star Wars film
>Well worth the wait... Stay in line, guys!
>breathtaking joyride from beginning to end!!!
>Does it live up to 16+ years of anticipation? Yes!
>Faith Restored
>Applause. Lots of applause.
>It was worth the 16 year wait since ROTJ
>This movie is everything it should be, the beginning of the greatest tale ever to grace the screen."The Phantom Menace" has all the glitz and glamour you'd expect from a film directed by George Lucas, but it also is a fantastic example of why Star Wars is true greatness
>>63762217
Of course it's the best of the three.
>Great as a film, but just good as a Star Wars film
That isn't necessarily far off the mark tbqh

You are beaten.
It is useless to resist.
>critics like it therefore you have to like it
Seriously though, I do not understand the love for this movie

You haven't even seen it, you fucking hipster.
well, i saw the movie and i thought it was worse than the phantom menace and attack of the clones combined
