Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (USE SPOILER TAGS!)

[Bickle76]

Saw it successfully last minute without a circus last night. It was better than ESB but not as good as TPM kidding aside it did what I needed it to do- 83%.

I don't understand why Nada got suspended for in the first place. All of his spoilery posts were given spoiler tags from what I remember.

Yeah. You don't want to ruin the whole Po / Finn romance.

He was being stupid in the box office thread arguing with people just for the sake of arguing, posting incorrect and false statements about how the box office works the guy is truly just another tool like dvdfreaker was

I see. Thanks for the explanation.

Star Wars VII, tons of action. Not once was I bored by it. Kylo Ren, great villain also, and Rey and Finn, also great IMO.

Nada is how much attention you should pay to Nada.

Wow. So many posts since then. How can I read them all.

Short answer is epilepsy. Funny enough, last movie I saw in a theater was revenge of the sith. I had a very bad partial there within the first 5 minutes or so. The dark theater, big screen, loud sound, space battles, and light sabres was a killer.

Just getting here

Nada came from somewhere else he was probably banned from. He was not even here a couple weeks & earned his first suspension. Won't be long now

Rogue Star Wars fans threaten to ruin The Force Awakens via 'spoiler jihad'



SOURCE: The Guardian

So is this a case of too much free time or out of whack priorities or both? An admin for the group claims this wasn't their intention and that some of their members have gone rogue.

think we copped a "sample" of that jihad here, didn't we?. that is too much investment in self importance.

It wasn't supposed to be exciting, it was supposed to build tension.

I haven't seen the movie yet. Maybe it's fake. Or maybe that troll is one of those EU crusaders.

I knew it.

[Show spoiler]i thought the star destroyer was a terrific play on positive and negative space, different take on an iconic moment

[jdw89]

Is it worth it to see in IMax for someone who wears perscription glasses 24/7?

[Show spoiler]I was. It totally showed we were dealing with a different character. More unpredictable than Vader.

[Show spoiler]Kylo was wounded.

[Show spoiler]Agreed. His training is incomplete and divided: some from Luke and some from Snoke.

[Show spoiler]3PO must have lost his arm at some point and that was the only arm they had in the spare parts box.

[Show spoiler]Presumably Cloud City is still there. There has been plenty of time for someone to find a light saber in the bottom of that shaft (possibly with a severed hand still attached). It wouldn't be hard to figure out whose it was.

One possibility is that Luke removed the skin to remind himself of how much he was like his father. Also, there probably aren't many medical bays on that planet, so he couldn't repair the skin if it got damaged.

[Show spoiler]The only memorable music for me from all of EpVII was the first few seconds of the second teaser.

I did kind of like the bit as the Resistance was getting ready to launch the attack on Starkiller Base.

[Show spoiler]The emperor wasn't as big as the hologram in TESB.

[Show spoiler]Maz Kenata kind of fullfilled that role for this movie, but only a little.

[Show spoiler]The plot of Episode I was a bit of a rehash of Star Wars, too, although concealed under all the trade negotiations and Jar Jar slapstick.

This was a lot of fun. Can't wait to see it again.

I honestly still can't believe I just saw a new Star Wars movie. When that theme came blaring through the speakers I became very overwhelmed. An amazing experience.

4.5/5

I think I went into a state of shock honestly. I've been sitting around for three hours just thinking about the movie and the whole experience.
