From what I've heard it turned out a positive experience, closer in tone to the original movies. Will have to see for myself eventually.

I have liked them all so far (menace not so much).




Spoilers!

The movie has quite few lightsaber matches, compared to Ep 2&3 but it's understandable, because the build up. Older SW had very little also, in first SW it was like: Was that it? But times where different then, when not every two second where, blast, explosion, fire, crash, BOOM!

Here it premieres in about 24 hours, I'm part excited, part furious because no matter what, it is going to suck.

EDIT:

Having watched it, I can safely say that:

-As a standalone movie, it sucked hairy monkey balls
-It's slavishly devoted to recreating the original trilogy's atmosphere, and it does succeed in that
-John Williams is DA MAN, soundtrack is AWESOME
-As opposed to the Phantom Menace, it's clearly the first integral part of a trilogy
-It left me with many unanswered questions, to see how many of them were plotholes and how many were plothooks, I'd need to see the sequel

And finally, a SPOILER




























































































-It's basically A New Hope 2.0 without the memorable characters.

It's an alright movie but it has problems, some which may or may not be mitigated in the later movies.

Also the weakest and most unmemorable soundtrack of any star wars movie BY FAR

I would rate SW:FA 8.5/10. Essentially it is a good movie, however I have a problem with few things...


SPOILER!
1) Partially repeated plot... and objects...
2) The brat-like, annoying character traits in some members of the Skywalker family
3) The steel stormtrooper almost cameo-like appearance...

SPOILER END!

Everything repeats actually in SW, it's like a loop.




Spoilers!

How often someone falls from somewhere high? Luke in ep5 sky city, Palpatine in ep6 by Vader, Darth Maul in ep1 by Obi-Wan (who himself almost fell there), Padme in ep2 clone army 'aircraft', Mace Windu in ep3 Palpatine's window weeee!, This New 'Dad' in ep7

Boba and Jango Fett basically the same character, oh yeah Clone!

Luke and Anakin experiences somewhat same trials, mechanical hand, how very original!

List could go on and on.. But still I like most of these similarities, loops. It's Star Wars, these things just ties them together better.

One thing is the repeated motif of falling which only takes a few seconds, while another is fighting against one and the same thing all over again (for the rest of the movie or even franchise...).

Finally! Was about time! Good


Hey has America seen this yet? Funny how it showed here two days earlier that there

Also did you know that Finnish Sara Forsberg, Youtuber of: What Languages Sound Like to Foreigners, made the language for ep7. That Storm Trooper was also called Finn what means citizen of Finland. Yeah pretty proud right now

just got back from watching it. i don't know what all the negative reviews are about. maybe they didn't see the same movie as i did, lol.

i thoroughly enjoyed it. i don't know if it was because of the use of the original characters or not, but i feel it captured the feel of the first 3 quite well. they may have recycled some plot/scene/theme material, but since i enjoyed the originals, i could care less. if it isn't broke, why attempt to fix it, i say.

even though one plot point was given away via internet ass-heads, you could see that part coming anyway, while watching the movie. so even that didn't detract from it.

plus, the new jedi is hot. she has a great figure, too.


...i stayed until the end of the credits. sadly, no extra scene.

Good fred.


And nevermind extra scene, there are two more movies to come. so it turns out JJ and Disney CAN get it right... once in a blue moon.

Finally, the sequel we needed, wanted, deserved, and have.

Thank you for the rp idea, I'm sure my woman and me will put it to good use.

She absolutely loved it, and I saw it a little while after her.
