RLM was tired of being "The Star Wars Hate Club" and Mike likes JJ.

The Force Awakens is also a fun popcorn movie. If you don't think about it you can have fun. With the Prequels the slow pace FORCES you to look into the characters, and what you find isn't very good.

But yeah. Max fucking Landis of all people is right. Boyega's character makes no sense and Rey is a giant Mary Sue

>How did R2D2 just happen to find the kid who knew Ben Kenobi?

Kenobi was a local crazy old man. Most people in that part of tatooine knew about him. R2 found a kid who knew Kenobi, not the kid.

>Why does Leia not react at all to the destruction of her home planet?

Leia did react to Alderaan getting destroyed. Did you even watch ANH?

>How does a space station the size of a small moon vent heat through one exhaust port?

Got me there.

>Vader is clueless about the existence of his own children despite his force senses literally being able to pick up this shit.

This is a hole, but unlike the new trilogy, it actually has a valid excuse. There was no plan to make Luke related to Vader by the time ANH was filmed.

>Why is Yoda's training able to make Luke a fairly competent Jedi in the span of a few days verses people who have done it for a lifetime?

He'd been training for much longer than in Dagobah. Christ, he was actually at the "moving shit" stage by the battle of Hoth.

>Palpatine never uses his clairvoyance to anticipate the rebels' movements.

Your only really valid point so far.

>You have to accept Kenobi is a fucking liar even in the original trilogy because they made everything up as they go along even though it makes no sense for him to do so

What?

>Obi-wan completely forgets Leia exists, as far as any kind of action goes, and doesn't bring them in on their plans

Ah. Prequels. Again, by the time ANH was being filmed the prequels were likely much different in Lucas's mind. This shit cannot be applied to the new trilogy, since the entire franchise is now under the watchful eye of Disney. They've already rewritten Ant-Man's script to tie it in better with the MCU.

>Leia "always knew" Luke was her brother but kissed him anyway

See above. By the time Empire was being filmed, Luke was going to have a different force using sister.

Most of your 9 plotholes over an entire trilogy are filled. Compare that to JJ's listed 40 in one movie.

I agree with a lot of this guy's points and was disappointed with TFA, but Palpatine literally did project himself as huge in Empire.

Snoke in this case probably is enormous, as he and other things in this are based on early unused McQuarrie designs.
>>
>>63951525

if they're going to make shit up as they go along, they should make sure that the shit they make up is thematically and logically consistent with what was written before.

Is lying in Obi-wan's character? Yes, now, after thirty+ odd years of canon, it is. But is it logical for him to do so? It makes Obi-wan out to be stupidly incompetent when you think about it too hard because it makes Luke make stupid decisions and come closer to the dark side. So now, it's in character for him to lie, but under scrutiny, it's unclear why someone in Obi-wan's position would fucking think this was a good idea. And this is IN THE ORIGINAL TRILOGY, you don't need the weirdness of the prequels to see this as flimsy and stupid.

It's a fucking flimsy justification they created to make an idea they had later work. "They didn't think of this when they scripted ANH" is not a get out of jail free card for poor plotting after the fact.

>10. For that matter, why is it made to seem like the entire Republic is centered in just one star system? Let alone one whose planets and moons are all visible to one another with the naked eye? Isn't the Republic intergalactic? And why did the First Order choose to destroy all the planets and moons visible from Maz Kanata's home-world, but then initiate a conventional invasion of the latter planet? Why not just fire one more planet-killing beam and destroy Kanata's planet too? Because not doing that leads to a significant military defeat for the First Order that was totally avoidable. And another thing: if the Republic is in power, why is the Resistance the "Resistance"? What are they resisting? Isn't the First Order the "Resistance," as they're resisting the hegemony of the Republic? It's like someone on-set said "the Rebels need a new name," without realizing that the political situation in the Galaxy had totally changed since the events of the previous films.

This is what pissed me off the most about the resistance

>>63951753
Sure, I'll agree it's no excuse, but you can't criticize one movie strictly because its followup forgot to check its facts. That's like saying Spider-Man was lazily made because there was no hint that Thomas Hayden Church shot Uncle Ben. That's not the fault of the films, but with the filmmakers.

Also, my point was that you were putting in plotholes that only retrospectively became plotholes because of later movies. Most of the problems presented in the huffpost article were contained in only the one movie, and quite a few of them were valid points.
>>

>>63951903
>just his face

So I guess the Wizard of Oz wasn't being insecure since his massive projection was only his face, too.
Don't think I didn't fucking hate TFA; its only good move was looking at the McQuarrie concept art that went unused and JJ shit the bed everywhere else. I was just saying the guy flat denied that there was no large projection of Emperor in the OT, and this is absolutely false.

do X-Wing laser cannons have a 'stun' setting which they switch in and out of?
does a lightsaber slash on a defenceless, elderly target need to be wielded like sledgehammer to granite in order to make on look tough?
does a guy who can stop laser light, mid-air, have to eschew using any of his force powers while fighting janitors and asexual, likely sapphic Mary Sues?
does a numbskull nignog who's spinal column is cauterised by hot plasma, awake in the next film in order pursue the object of his jungle lust desires?
>>
>>63951999
And severale of the ANH plotholes were filled.
For example, you literally said that Leia didn't react to Alderaan getting destroyed at all, which she actually did.

Sure, she didn't linger on it or swear revenge, but did she really have to? We knew she just watched her homeworld get destroyed, and she literally got to help plan and destroy the thing that caused it. Watching her cry more often or make any proclamations of what she ended up doing anyway wouldn't have helped the narrative any.
>>
>>63951994
I did not read his denial of the use of oversized projections in the OT... only that shmeagol obviously has a Napoleon complex for using such an extravagant image of his otherwise laughably ridiculous-looking self

>>
>>63952124

are you fucking kidding me? None of what she does is fucking realistic. No one walks off the death of everything they ever loved in a matter of hours. The next time we see her she's sitting like a kid who got sent to her room and sassing Luke with teenaged putdowns. Does she get to business? Sure. But it's no different from the rest of the time we see her out of her cell.

You don't need fucking wangst to actually treat that loss like it's fucking human. Remember, Fischer, Hamill, and Ford have all criticized the OT's scripts and Lucas's direction. There was a reason for that, and it's not unique to the prequels.

>>63951857

Nothing in Star Wars is intergalactic. It takes place in the same galaxy and actually in a very small region of the Galaxy. The republic most likely influences many systems but that was the "home" system.

why did leia send han to his death, knowing full well the risks invovled... and why didn't the fuzzball shoot (or at least posture to shoot) the emo when han was readying for martyrdom?

1. leia is dark and influenced chewbacca in some way (perhaps with threats to his home planet) to let / facilitate (which he did) han's meeting with gaylord -- i.e., she / they conspired to kill handjob
2. (the most likely scenario) -- jew jew is about as subtle with his plot devices as the jews are with their palestinian metastasisation

Because they both wanted to fucking try and save Ben, and Han needed to put his life at risk to do so

sniping Ren and then dragging him to the base would have only made shit worse, especially considering we know he can fucking tank a bowcaster shot that is a one shot kill on stormtroopers wearing armor

Han Solo specifically states he was looking for the MF, and that if he could find it the First Order could too.

Luke exiles himself like both YODA AND OBI WAN do. Do we blame them for the millions killed? He's the last fucking Jedi for christs sake.

General Hux gathers everyone because it's the very thing they're all indoctrinated to do, destroy the resistance. Why wouldn't they all be there?

They send two of his closest friends and his daughter to find Luke. What? Were they gonna send the rest of the resistance all at once?

Kylo taking his helmet off isn't a plot hole.

I fucking hate people like the dude who wrote the article. Half of these are straight up nitpicks.

TFA faggots BTFO

Only two or three points I disagree with and can be explained. The rest really show how terrible TFA was.

34. How do the Rathtars on Han's freighter get loose?

They are freed by Rey by magically hitting switches below the floor

38. Is Supreme Leader Snoke actually a giant?

I dont think so, and it is obvious he appears tall and imposing to look intimidating. I dont see how that is a plot hole though
27. How did Kylo Ren manage to get Darth Vader's mask into his little fetish den? Why doesnt Rey sell the helmet?

I dont see how that is a plot hole either. He clearly got it from Endor or sum shit.

Rey's helmet is another story. She clearly loves it, so it's normal that she doesnt sell it, more so when she can make a living out of selling normal junk. What I would have changed though is the value. I would have made Rey's helmet a very, very valuable possession in general, so when the alien captures BB8, instead of just freeing him and getting away with it, Rey should have traded her helmet for the droid, and the alien should have walked away with the helmet on its head for comical relief.

The fact that the Huffington post makes this list really shows how JJ is a fucking HACK FRAUD

It's pretty clear (although it will never be acknowledged in canon) that Leia is a radical bitch and the "Resistance" is just an euphemism.

the Resistance is just a terrorist group sponsored by the Republic, pretty much like what NATO and the west is doing sponsoring mercs and terrorists in Syria and the middle east.

Dude, the entire point of his character is he's a guy who's trying to act like Darth Vader, thus it makes sense for him to go between his "Vader persona" (the mask) and just plain ole Kylo Ren. He's not a Vader type villain.

- why would a sith-alike even give a shit about emulating other sith -- that flies in the face of their very being.
- why is Vader the only real regal member of his lineage? were his cum sponge really THAT inbred that its progeny could only whelp whiny boy-children?

Think the problem, wasn't necessarily plot holes, but that the movie was too fast paced, and things were constantly happening for plot convenience without proper exposition or set ups.

Like you could of had scenes that showed hints that Rey had innate force powers earlier in the movie, only for them to "awaken" later. You could've had her explain to Finn that she'd spent time on the Falcon beforehand, helping to get it spaceworthy.

Yoda literally challenged Palpatine and lost. He went into exile because he knew he could not beat Palpatine. Obi Wan went into exile to protect Luke and Leia, who were the offspring of the very powerful Anakin Skywalker.

Their potential force sensitivity would be valuable and one of the last remaining means to develop a Jedi capable of defeating Palpatine (something that Obi Wan knew he wasn't).

These reasons are given to you. You are retarded.

>>63955771
Can you stop make it seem like everyone who liked Star Wars loved this movie? Because that's clearly not the case. And treating ESB as something out of the ordinary when it's the best of the series is also just damage controlling an incredibly shallow and inconsistent movie that is far more concerned with capeshit tropes than actually being a SW movie. Despite them copy-pasting ANH, it didn't even feel SW. It felt like some hollow imitation with modern liberal sensibilities shoved into it. Yes, a glib facsimile.

He was really bad at this in the Star Trek movies too

He also did ridiculous shit like breaking the known conventions of the universe, like in Start Trek with the transporting across star systems, and now here with the going to lightspeed from inside a ship, and coming out of lightspeed in the atmosphere of a planet. (I'm pretty sure I remember in the OT they had to wait for a computer to plot their course before they make the jump to lightspeed, they don't seem to do that anymore).

Seriously, go back to reddit, I assume they're eating this up. I love star wars, and I wanted this to be a good movie. What I got was It's Like Poetry So That They Rhyme: The Plot, "good I guess" acting, le callback meme, omg practical effects 10/10, and largely forgettable digital effects.

This movie had nothing new or notable in it. The only good thing I can say is that it's obvious the people who made it really like SW in some sense.

Nooooo, we got a "Hey guys look remember star wars I'm star wars!" film. Fanwankery and callbacks is not the same as good filmmaking.

Yes, truly a masterpiece.

When will literally reddits understand that le callbacks don't matter? Yeah, trust me, I remember ESB. Yes, you're also that franchise. Congratulations, movie.

Although, without them, people would see TFA for the heaping pile of "meh" that it is, so I guess it was a smart move on their part. Gotta make up for lack of filmmaking skill somehow, right?

JJ just doesn't care about plot logic, and he's not making films for people who do. It's totally simple. He approaches films as being based around the pacing of emotional beats.

Of course he won't admit this directly because it would undercut his authority as a director, but he's not attempting to make immersive universes.

This is my biggest issue with TFA actually. If it just wants to be a fun action flick then it should just be that. Give me a villain who wants to exploit people for money and a hero who takes them on to protect their family or some shit. The heroes weren't great but passable enough.

The villains on the other hand were outright terrible, how can I really care about the heroes' struggle if the villain is a whiny bitch baby with no clear motivations for doing what he's doing. They neither fail to make him a sympathetic slave to the dark side, with snoke being the real villain since he just comes across as whiny and then kills off a fan favourite. Neither is he the guy I thought he'd be at the beginning, a simple hardass like Vader which again would be easy to understand and hate. He ends up sort of caught in the middle where it's not clear how to feel about him. Snoke is just a non entity with absolutely no reason to do anything he's doing so he's even worse.

Which is kind of weird considering how utterly absent any sense of pacing is in TFA.

The argument of a beta pleb who has no idea wtf he's talking about and wants to sound intelligent.

I really like how luke's saber gave a plot relevant vision and backstory to Rey and becomes a pseudo holy grail and just glosses over how it ended the lives of at least a dozen children and dozens more force-users and who knows how many others
>>
I agree with some of these (and others aren't necessarily plot holes, just really stupid writing. The fight at the end with Kylo Ren being a big example).

However, some of these are pretty retarded

>Nobody can speak Wookie -- it's a running joke in the Star Wars universe
Says who? Sounds like an EU faggot to me.

>What is all this nonsense about the First Order only wanting to destroy the Republic because the Republic is supporting the Resistance?
It's the reason for the speech, that's all.

>For that matter, why is it made to seem like the entire Republic is centered in just one star system?
The movie does not fucking say that. Jesus Christ, this dude is now making plot holes out of his own dumb interpretations.

>Than to worry about Finn? Why wouldn't this be obvious to him?
Because he's fucking shitting himself and wants to get as far away as possible. People don't think 100% logically at all times.

>By the end of the movie, the impression is left that every single First Order soldier is dead besides Supreme Leader Snoke, General Hux, and Kylo Ren
Again with his weird dumb interpretations

>If Plutt is enough of a baddie to order it stolen at all, why not just steal it from the outset instead of first offering some random urchin the biggest financial windfall she's ever seen?
Because he doesn't want to make a scene, dumbass

Lastly, the "How the fuck is the force a myth?" will be a plot hole that will continue forever in this series. It's been illogical since the very first movie.
>>
>36. Why are all Stormtroopers human (or humanoid)? If by the time of the First Order any clones being raised to be Stormtroopers are no longer clones of Jango Fett, why aren't there now Stormtroopers of every species as well as every (human) race? Why aren't there flying Stormtroopers from the same species as, say, Watto (from The Phantom Menace)?

This one is dumb.

The empire and the sith are canonically known to favor humans and true-sith over every other species

It made sense in the first movie. It's been illogical since the prequels showed how there's Jedi EVERYWHERE

Who cares about stuff like that. TFA really had more important problems.

No, it was retarded in the first movie too, because Luke had no idea about the force or lightsabers, but somehow knew of the existence of Jedi Knights and the Clone Wars, which were already very obviously connected by the time of the first movie, even before the prequels.
>>
>10. For that matter, why is it made to seem like the entire Republic is centered in just one star system? Let alone one whose planets and moons are all visible to one another with the naked eye? Isn't the Republic intergalactic?

Intergalactic? I agree with most of their points, but this one is just wrong. The Empire/Republic has never spanned more than one galaxy.

Theres hundreds of systems in the republic covering even more worlds each with millions if not billions of people. There was only a handful of jedi that by and large didnt go waving sabers and using force tricks everywhere they travelled. Why would anyone believe half the things jedi can do without seeing it themselves? Of course they would be tall tales and legends.
>>
Why do 99% of all people say "cannon" instead of canon?

Am I missing something?
>>
>>63953013
This. I don't see the problem.
NATO is far bigger and powerfull than Al Assad or ISIS, but there are rebels and resistance on their lands.
There was Empire and Republic, now First Order. And rebels and resistants aren't just a Republic task force.
It makes sense that they resist to something, in some part of the galaxy, it's just a location issue.

A lot of critics made sense, but this article is just complaining for the sack of it, and for clicks. Not really about non sensical things.

What exactly is illogical about this? The Jedi have supernatural powers and have always been few. Why would anyone believe in that without having ever seen one?

Those aren't plotholes, you're just a very simple person.

Even if it was, people would probably think of the Jedi as some kind of illusionists.

Yes, because there aren't people who believe that Obama was born in Kenya, 9/11 was caused thermite, the holocaust never happened, etc.

You act like several galaxies are just going to all believe some shit they read or heard somewhere when we all live on one planet, one continent, or even one country and don't believe shit that happened less than 1000 miles away or ten years ago.
