Was pretty shit, this movies version of the 'Trench Run' lasts about 15 seconds.

Dunno what the point of the Star Killer base was, it's barely in the movie and destroyed at the end pretty quickly.

It's more of a B story to the main focus about Han Rey and Ben

There is literally more screen time of Rey climbing a wall inside the Starkiller base, then there is of the battle outside between the X-Wings and Tie's and the outside of the base combined.

Eh, my take is that it was a somewhat better star wars version of JJ's star treks. Very well cast, great score, interesting set design, some overwhelming CGI but overall a lot of visuals, etc., but suffers from a lack of character development and all the fan service rhymes. Also, the fact that Disney plans to make about 10,000 star wars movies following these same characters, the narrative of this one film is pretty thin.

Good, not great, but still a fun movie overall. Anyone who says it sucks is a stick in the mud.
>>
Its not perfect but its not bad either.

J.J did a decent job considering the amount of pressure on him.

There's already far more character development in one film than across all of the Lucas films
>>
>>63729414

To me, it felt like J.J. looked to much into the word ''episode'', and forgot how well the previous movies stood on their own. This one doesn't, at all.
>>
Its decent. But one thing I absolutely cannot avoid bringing up is how fast the movie moves. Theres lots of shit always going on on screen at all times, its so dense people are always running with explosions behind them, lots of people are fighting in the background etc. and shouting. This doesnt sound like it would be a problem, but there is pretty much no character development to make you care about what is happening to people in a scene, its just one action set piece into another, it never stops. All the character development comes from a person in a scene glaring at someone else for a second whilest the camera zooms in on their face and then they fight or divulge some meaningful information. The exact same editing and direction as his Star Trek movies, where the whole thing is moving at a break neck pace and doesnt slow down for a fucking second to make a scene with the characters, the camera is always zipping around and moving, and sitting at a dutch angle to make scenes look interesting and tense. The camera is very rarely sitting still.

I dont know, maybe this is just the way action movies are made now, but I will always prefer the camera sitting back and actually letting me see the action in a clear scene, and being able to place characters in the set piece.

>>
>>63727821
This is literally JUST the type of rehash I was expecting, it's nothing but a glib facsimile.

If Star Wars was all I had access to as a child in terms of sci-fi I probably would become one of those crazy fanboys, but thankfully I had access to anime from very early on in my youth years that my mental balance is very stable.

Seriously, if you have watched Akira, you'd realize just how sophisticated anime is and it blows away anything Star Wars would have to offer.

A lot of people mention Ghost In The Shell, which has just enough of sexuality in the mix to draw in the western audience I suppose but I must say that Ghost In The Shell is not even in my top 10 anime, not even close, that's just how deep the world of anime is.

Some anime is so disturbingly mature like Fractale that I wish it would challenge the system and submit it as a Drama category in the Oscars just to bitchslap the snotty Academy.

It's not just the level of maturity and sophistication anime has, it's also quite original, entertaining, and visually fantastic. I would regard anime as the highest form of cinema art-form.

But hey, me preaching about anime won't do you any good, you gotta go out and see it for yourself just how much you are missing.

The recent one I would recommend to check out is Sword Art Online which is light and easy to get into anime for the first time yet appreciate it as much, but if you want the heavy stuff right off the line check out Guilty Crown in which the plot is so complex and twisted that you'll need extra oxygen pumped into your brain in order to comprehend everything, and if you want amazing visuals and a gripping drama that also has awesome mecha battles Aldnoah.Zero is the shit.

Seriously, if you know anime like I do, Star Wars looks like it's something for little children

Yeah it was bad. I don't shit post the film, I don't care about the black dude, or the chick being the hero, I don't have much attachment to the series except enjoying the originals a lot when I was 10, I don't care about the general lore - I just care about movies in general and this was a bad one. I at least expected to enjoy it in the way Abrams movies are usually enjoyable as easily digestible visual spectacles albeit without substance but it wasn't even good in that sense. It's probably his worst film.
>>
>>63730162

Why the fuck is this considered an achievement? These fucktards were picked because of their skincolour/gender which is precisely what they're advocating against. God forbid they cast people based on TALENT and ABILITY instead of trying to meet some diversity quota.

This movie would've been 10 times better with actual good actors. Oscar Isaac is an actual good actor so I have no qualms with him. But I refuse to believe they couldn't find anyone better for the rest. This movie would've been so much better with proper casting.
>>
>>63729592
I agree about it's tone - basically the plot elements of New Hope imagined through JJ's directing style which you nailed. It's fast and a lot of shit happens and there is always something visually "cool" happening in most scenes.

and I don't think it's bad at all. People in the current year watch films differently, many of use have been conditioned from early childhood or even birth with internet content, which is a fucking barrage of cool images.

Would moments/scenes/acts where there is some respite be a good thing from a filmmaking perspective? Probably, but I certainly don't hold it over JJ for taking the option that's going to stiffen the dicks of the audience the most.
>>
>>63729174
I thought JJ Trek was far better. JJ's first Trek was an entertaining stand-alone movie. JJ Wars is fan-service and nostalgia, and a copy of ANH.

How many scenes did we have to sit through where Boyega was wearing a helmet, before we saw his face? How are we supposed to give a fuck about a big dumb helmet? It was like watching a kids cartoon.

Maybe kids will love it, but the movie relied on nostaligia so much that you can't really use the excuse that it's a kids movie.

The black dude and the latino were alright though the black dude was just acting as a black dude so it wasn't a great thespian achievement. The chick was terrible and had no chemistry with anyone. Weird looking bad guy was either really bad or really good depending on if it was intentional for him to play the least intimidating villain in movie history. Oh and you want to talk about the original cast putting in a bad performance? I disagree that they were poor in the originals but they certainly fucking phoned it in for this one. I bet Ford only agreed to do the movie if they wrote his character out of the series. He looked miserable in every scene.
>>
>>63730288
Face it, the casting wasn't even that bad, movie would've been fine even with the black, woman and latino quota, the problem is the fact that Ray's character is a mary sue, that kylo ren is a weebo that JJ wasn't able to direct a decent swordfight, that the story was stupid and went on with giant coincidences and the only thing that saves the movie are the humour and Harrison Ford

>>
>>63730606
I'll probably come off like I'm dick-riding this film, but honestly fanboyism aside I have no major issues with any of the acting, but hey I'm no master critic
Poe: Charismatic, and almost a bit Han Solo-ish in some scenes. Granted he doesn't have the vibe that Ford does, so it's arguable he was a bit vanilla. Having said that, he was a side character really.
Finn: I thought he did a great job of being a bewildered and naive former trooper. His job was to be an earnest but clumsy sidekick to Rey, which he was. Now that I think about it he was actually great comic relief. His function in the plot is not unlike Leia in ANH, but his acting is much better.
Rey: A real gem. I went in not liking her face but now I like her face. I went in thinking the whole stronk female schtick for this film wouldn't hold up, but with the force lore it works just fine. She's competent in a believable way.
Orange lil black woman thing: Was great 10/10 don't belief the racists

The point is he's weak, and he's really desperate to follow on in Darth Vader's footsteps. Nobody knows a thing about Rey and her backstory, she could be strong as fuck for all we know; she doesn't just know it yet. Don't really see how the bit where she beats Ren is a big deal desu, what were you expecting to happen?

She was like 4 years old when she was left on Jakku. You saw it in the flashback
>>
>>63731712
Why does he want to follow in Vader's footsteps, though?
>>
Good god....

Maz's character was awful, Leia's acting was stale, the film heavily borrowed from the original trilogy, and the screenplay had needless quips.

There's so many more things I could list, but this movie was overall extremely disappointing.
>>
>>63731712
Yet the build him up a lot. He can stop blaster shots and keep them in mid-air while focusing on other things. He can read people's minds. He's not weak, at least when it comes to the force. He's one terrible duelist though.

And yes it's true we don't know about her backstory, but for the time being it feels really lazy. This movie was supposed to be able to stand on its own, but it can't. It desperately needs the other movies to explain even the simplest of things for it.
>>
>>63727821
It was. I blame Kylo.

So she's Alice from resident evil? Well that was a good character.........

So many quips. I fucking hated that Finn had to be funny at the end of almost everything he said. Made it feel even more like a generic action movie than a Star Wars movie.

The movie was a huge letdown.

I took it as more like he really wants to be a sith but he can't hack it and he's just kinda bad at being evil. There's that bit where he's praying to Darth Vader's helmet to help him resist the light side and he's constantly hitting his wound to try and get himself angrier and he can't even mind rape Rey properly.

He can mindrape everyone except Rey, because Rey is either a Mary Sue or secretly trained in her past.

Agreed. I suppose a slightly better Into Darkness would've been the better comparison.

This is called the Nolan Factor. Throw as much stuff as you can, as quickly as you can, thus people won't have the time to think about what they just saw, and eventually realise it makes no sense.
That's what he did for TDK, TDKR ending, Inception second half, and so on. And just look at how these films are viewed by modern audience... it doesn't backfire, and people feel smart because the film is pretending to be "complexe' and they understood it.

I can fully see why they would do this for Star Wars, or even any big blockbuster (Skyfall is also a very good exemple of this).

It was good. 7/10.

But man did the reviews go OTT.

>starkiller doesnt really do anything that a Death Star can't, and it takes an entire sun to power it

It didn't need to be orbiting the planet and was able to destroy more than one planet at a time

Obviously wasn't reliable and only mary sue pilots could probably pull this off

>>
I rate it equal to Return of the Jedi

There are some serious problems with the inappropriate comedy and the very awkward exposition that could have been fixed with a more even hand writing it
And exuberance to be making a star wars film expressed by everyone shouting excitedly at things

Star Wars is not complex story telling, it starts in med res and you get some backstory explained as it goes
But the discussion on how to blow up the star killer base was like one of those forced scenes of background discussions from Myth Busters
Its nothing like the Death Star briefing which is simple and direct
And didn't have people mugging for the camera

No, but it will happen at some point in a prospective sequel. I wouldn't be surprised, considering how much media released these days is promoting race mixing.
>>
the fucking intro text was like 4 sentences, they could have solved a lot of my issues with it if they just put some more text in explaining what the fuck happened after the destruction of the 2nd death start, even if it was only brief. the movie makes no effort to try and even briefly explain the political climate and what's going on in the rest of the galaxy.

They re-established the Republic
There is a pocket remnant of the Empire
Within that pocket there is a resistance that the Republic has been aiding

>HURR THE SCORE'S GOING DOWN.

Motherfucker, it'd be dropping from a perfect score regardless of whoever reviewed it. That's how a critical aggregate works - if someone dislikes something, the rating goes down. And with a movie with nearly 200 reviews, you're bound to have at least a handful of people who won't like it. And as it stands, that's a 5% drop from a perfect 100% - hardly cause for alarm.

The thing that matters is that it's one of the best-reviewed blockbusters of the year by over 90% of critics. Even if you don't like it, that doesn't affect its overall score. That's where the audience rating kicks in. It will stabilize a few days from now, and it looks to be stabilizing above 90%. The same idea applies with IMDB or whatever other measure of internet success you're going to look at.

let's not discuss politics in star wars again

the prequels were enough of that shit

i just think of the first order as the remnant of the empire and the republic defeated them, they destroyed most of their forces and decided they were contained. job done, the new order has a part of the galaxy which isn't too important, but they're still oppressive and the republic supports the resistance heavily.
