        I thought it was thoroughly entertaining, captured the feeling of Star Wars far better than any of the last trilogy, but if you think about the story too much you will realise it was utter shit really. Entertaining shit.

          Episode 7 is a good Disney-Movie. Besides 1 annoying character it´s a nice and entertaining movie. Much much better than Episode 1-3.

            Thoughts match mine almost identically. WAY to similar story to Ep IV.

              enjoyed it for what it was.  walked away thinking Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford just wanted one more movie before they died.

                I wasn't too impressed by The Force Awakens:

                • There were plot holes you could fly a Star Destroyer through.

                • It was never entirely clear what the political situation was, nor what the First Order wanted.

                • It felt too beholden to the original trilogy. Though the prequels were much maligned, they at least tried to be their own thing.

                I'm curious to see what Rian Johnson does in Episode VIII, as Looper was an interesting film. Of course it'll turn out that Finn is actually a younger Lando and Mace Windu, and who's been experiencing the Star Wars saga in reverse order.

                  for me, i did not like them restarting the whole star wars franchise again. did not bother at all.

                    What do you mean, the prequels? I'm personally sort of disappointed to have to forget everything from the expanded universe novels and comics that I loved in middle school/high school. All of the post-return of the Jedi timeline is getting replaced. I still like the newest movie, but I'm enough of a dork to have a hard time erasing the old continuity and stories

                        I'd say I could care less, and just leave it hanging in Random Rants, as that usually goes down well 🙂

                            @Megatron1505 that's why i prefer Marvel over DC..  😎 😎 😎

                            @sabergirl what i meant was, i like how return of the jedi "ended", them defeating the dark side and so on, goodness was restored. like it was a good happy ending to a movie, especially since i watched it when i was a kid, the end. so didn't really look forward to this.

                              Ah, I see. But I was always curious about what happened after. I guess I always just wanted more Star Wars. And I still do.

                              I hear you about Batman, Mega. That's been rough. Marvel had done a pretty good job with their continuity, although Hulk…

                                      Haha. Thanks, bro. It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win is a win.

                                      Definitely told a couple New Mexico Bowl stories today. Remember the food poisoning? Hahaha.

                                      Next year, it'll be the Rose Bowl and I'll host.  In the meantime, sparking another to celebrate. Go Cougs!

                                            The Force Awakens was awful . Stop reading if your going to watch it .

                                            Too fast pacing ( rushing from action sequence to action sequence )  , characters your cared little for , new bad villain a whiny teenager with father issues , another planet destroying sphere ! Barely any new ideas or plot directions at all . Disney is all about how much cash can be sucked from the younger and older generation .

                                            Not to mention the toy / merchandise tie in products . Four billion dollars
                                            was a bargain for  them to buy the whole franchise rights .

                                            I watched a streamed copy of TFA for forks sake too .

                                            More interested in seeing this. :

                                            Mirthing my way through life.
