I feel it's story is a condensed version of the original trilogy. The first act is very much like Star Wars, a droid, a desert planet, & a Falcon escape. The second act is Empire, we meet a wise elder, have a force vision, a torture scene, & a powerful moment on a bridge over a large chasm. The third act is Jedi, we get a team deactivating/blowing up a shield, X-Wing action, & an intense, emotional lightsaber battle. Though one can argue that Jedi is a remake of Star Wars, Force Awakens is the entire original trilogy in 2 hours, & I'm 100% okay with that.

+Alex Loupe I believe that a rehash of the original trilogy was the intention for Episode 7, even before Abrams came onto the movie. They needed to bring old fans of Star Wars back (through nostalgia for the old stories) & introduce new characters. If you look at Abrams' movies, he mainly works within franchises and reuses old ideas. Even Super 8, an original project, takes major elements from classic Spielberg movies. This is probably why Kathleen Kennedy picked Abrams for The Force Awakens, he has a lot of experience taking classic stories and placing new interesting characters within them.

My theory, Kylo is like 10 years older than Rey, He was with Luke training along with the other young lings, Rey is Luke's daughter and she was training as well but since she was so young she wasn't doing the harder things with the older kids. Supreme leader Snoke shows up and pretends to want to help train the young lings and slowly starts converting Kylo and the others to the dark side which later on forms the Knights of Ren, when Luke finds out he fights Snoke and that is why he has the massive scar on his face, but Kylo and the other young lings defend Snoke and since Luke doesn't want to be like Vader he stops himself and runs away, he later finds Rey hiding since she wasn't with the older kids, he runs away with her, wipes her memory (Her earliest memory is when she is dropped off and the ship leaves) and drops her off in a desert planet to be safe. He entrusts Lor San Tekka to watch over her from a distance w/o involving himself and lets him have his final destination in case shit hits the fan he can find him. Since the First Order is getting out of control he gives the piece to the resistance so they can get Luke back.
@callardgreens208 жыл бұрын
I think the old man killed by Kylo in the first couple minutes (correct me if he has a reputation) was left on Jakku to keep Rey in the dark about her past. He was an old jedi. Once he died and she got farther from jakku, she began to realize her powers. And perhaps R2D2 was revived from no where because Rey was in the vicinity. Lukes direct blood. Meaning that Luke set R2 (him setting his hand on R2 in the flash back, being his goodbye to R2) to revive if his daughter ever came in to close range of R2, because he knew if she ever found R2, she would be off of jakku, and on her path to discovering the force. AND, if that happened, she would HAVE to find Luke to ensure she came to the Light side instead of being persuaded by the dark side (tried by Kylo Ren) to ensure another vader never exists. Maybe?

The people complaining that it's too similar to A New Hope(it called back to all three orig trig) just don't get it, and can't or won't get it. I'm not saying that Abram's hands were tied, but he had one real job, more important than all others: make up for the prequels. The last Star Wars movie to come out was Revenge of the Sith, not Return of the Jedi, and while RotS was the best of the prequels, it is infinitely inferior to Return of the Jedi. We needed this movie to show the new generation what was so special about the original movies. We needed this movie as an apology and an affirmation. It definitely wasn't the time to be getting anymore experimental with Star Wars than they already were, though I think it perfectly sets up the rest of the new trig to try some very cool things. Truly, it's a shitty argument anyways. Stories get retold all the time. It doesn't matter if we've seen it before, it only matters is whether it works and the movie is good. It's not perfect, but it's a damn good film.

You guys need to read the Force Awakens book if you're wanting more exposition and answers to the motives of the characters and their thoughts during all the action. It's an amazing epic story, especially the second half. I understand the characters, the backgrounds and their motives much better after reading the book. As for why Ren freaks out about the girl. It says in the book that there was some kind of prophecy or premonition that a girl would be "the one" and the overlord Sith underestimated her.

As an objective look, Force Awakens IS the best Star Wars film as far as quality. The originals had a ton of problems that a lot of adults gloss over do to nostalgia. When everyone watches star wars, you are a kid, so you don't recognize the issues, but as an adult who never saw them as a kid, I can definitely say Force Awakens is the best. Obviously the effects are better (and that isn't something I can fault the originals for), but the big things are story, acting and quality. The originals, had pretty terrible acting. Listen to lines from Leia or Luke from the original on a soundboard, and they sound as stupid as Jar Jar out of context. Finn and Rey's actors in this film were arguably some of the best in the entire universe. Even Kylo Ren and Poe Dameron were pretty high tier. As for writing, I think Force Awakens did a better job at telling a good story and balancing the perfect amount of drama, action and nostalgia. It's a film that will be enjoyed by children, but could be complex enough to be watched as an adult. The originals, unless you watched them as a kid, you can't really watch them as an adult. They are far too cheesy, cartoony and not very good compared to general movie characteristics. If Star Wars was reviewed in modern day, it might get about a 75-82, while the new one would probably get a good 95. The reason they are acclaimed is the instant "nostalgia" boost that brings them up to absurd things like 99s.

***** The cinematography was great in this. The key to cinematography is having nearly every scene be able to be framed and hang on a wall and look nice, which this did perfectly. The originals I couldn't say the same for. Not to mention the powerpoint transitions. And the "horrible plot" is New Hope...with a few alterations so there's that. Literally all your flaws describe 4, 5, and 6 better than Force Awakens. As they were cheaper, lower budget, pretty bad acting, mediocre set design, and the same story.

Yso serious?85 Again, objectively. I didn't watch the films as a kid, so I can't see what they were like with childlike eyes. If you watched the originals like I did with the notions of proper film making ingrained in your head (the stuff that ruins movies like Star Wars), you realize they aren't as good as they are made out to be. Star Wars is made and reviewed by children of every decade that eventually grow up and still get excited about them, like children. Force Awakens, was my "first" star wars, and objectively, it's similar to Marvel, it can be enjoyed by kids and adults alike (and past star wars fans). The old ones, its sorta, you only like it if you were a fan from the start or a kid.

The prequels all had terrible writing and acting, on top of a cringe- worthy amount of CGI.

What movie were you guys watching? I saw this at the Chinese theater last night. The movie was a disaster! Over time it will be remembered like the pre-equals. Hard to believe JJ was so lost for ideas he basically remade a poor version of the original; plot point by plot point! The space scenes looked fake. The ships looked like models; without proper balance of inertia or braking. Wearing an unnecessary mask, Kylo Ren is a sniveling wimp who gets beaten by a girl who has no experience with a light sabre! Like others, the emperor-like character is totally CGI, looking and moving completely unnatural! The dialog between Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher is forced, unnatural and unnecessary. The cuteness of Balls (BB-8) is not enough to hold this movie together. Their quest for and use of “the map” made the universe seem finite and small and easily navigatable. All journeys were almost instant and unrealistic. We lose concern for the characters and their plight. The movie was diverse, humorous at times and empowering toward women, but an ultimate failure.

My roommate hadn't watched any of the Star Wars movies. So last week we sat down and watched all six of them in chronological order. By the end of all the movies and after much discussion he still thinks episode 1-3 where the better half of the franchise. Episodes 4-6 where great but I don't under value what 1-3 did for the franchise ( except jar jar) . I think people need to stop looking at those movies as if they didn't happens and where a flop because what they set out to do was accomplished. Those movies created an athmospere or a bigger Galaxy !! They established order, gave insight to the Jedi and their order and made a great way of how the fall of the republic leads to the empires rule. Episodes 4-6 are an amazing adventure and fight between good and evil but never do this. It always just seems like there are 2 sides of the coin and it's only the Rebels and the empire in this universe there is no middle ground. People need to go back and watch all the movies with fresh eyes.

"JarJar was so bad" - Prequel Jarjar was better than originals C3PO "The cgi was bad" - The cgi was objectively good, was groundbreaking for the time and still holds up today.

In my head cannon midichlorians were just a theory that Qui-gon believed in, but not absolute fact. Hence he's the only Jedi that ever mentions it. During the height of the republic its very possible there was scientific research being done into the force and its very possible midis were simply a detectable byproduct of the force and not their source. Maz's explanation of the force is more in line with Yoda's so there's really no need to retcon anything, Qui-gon was simply mistaken.

BBEEAANN as i explained. its quite possible midichlorians are something that are simply attracted to force users and can be used to detect someone's affinity to the force. correlation is not causation. The OT and PT conflict on a number of issues including the force. Either we consider one is simply wrong or there is unknown information that can account for both being correct. In general I consider Yoda a more reliable authority on the force than Qui-gon.

+Kaleiohu Lee OK, disbelieve Midichlorians. The plot can still make sense. Just think to yourself, "the Force is strong with this one's DNA". Well, it does run in families. That's established as early as Jedi. So if DNA exists, and the Force runs with it, what is so bad about Midichlorians?
@kaleiohulee66938 жыл бұрын
Baigandine L that is why relating the force to just genetics is problematic. The force manifests itself in almost every alien race, and rarely was it inherited. Remember that during the Republic era Jedi did not have children, they were taken from normal parents that gave birth to force sensitive children. The Skywalkers were the exception and not the rule.

Kaleiohu Lee _"Either we consider one is simply wrong or there is unknown information that can account for both being correct."_ Yeah, because the midichlororians were discussed in the initial trilogy..I do believe Ben Kenobi and Yoda both explained the Force is in all of creation, and that it binds all living things together. The Prequels flushed out and explained the idea further. Once again. How does someone who is a fan of a movie know so little about the topic he's discussing?

Why is there a resistance and a republic? Isn't that what the rebels was fighting to create? Why are they now two separate entities?), there are a million other things I could go on with which also annoyed me but I feel that pretty much covers it. I personally do not like J.J. Abrhams' style, and to me this movie just wasn't Star Wars.

I know am minority here, but I think revenge of Sith is better 'star wars' movie than force awakens. True, acting is not that great like force awakens, but force awakens lacks that star wars feel, I felt like watching a knock off of star wars New hope.

+Jathin s I agree. JJ Abrams sucked the soul out of the franchise and turned it into a generic sci-fi move with cheap fanservice. The prequels were better, I think

Good to know some one also felt the same way I did. This movie is good, but it's not starwars, lacking Soul, that's exactly what I felt after watching it. Or some one trying hard to imitate Lucas. Am very relived next movie is not directed by jj, I heard ep 8 director prefer originality and is more creative, looking forward for that now. Hoping it won't be death star no 4.

Tim' s right that the bitching about the prequels may now stop, AND Colin is right that it's so New Hope that it's 'aaw, come on..' But what Colin isn't right about is comparing the prequels to Force Awakens. This new movie has flaws, and they shouldn't be overlooked and justified because of the past mistakes made by previous movies. I personally feel this movie fed me too much of the old stuff and never had the balls to go somewhere creative. Kylo Ren shouldn't have stopped the bolt at the beginning. He should have stopped it at the end. If he is going to build up his power and evil presence in this story, he should not get more vulnerable as the movie progresses. It should have been the other way around. If a comparison has to be made between the prequels and this movie, I think it is in that Star Wars always had a problem building up an evil character. Hayden Christensen was an example of this, Adam Driver also is. I think both of them don't have enough realness to them and fail to instill enough fear in the hearts of the viewers as a true villain should.

+Nikola Gramatikov I think Kylo is a newb and intended to be a newb. Snoke says he needs to finish his training. I think Kylo is supposed to be a more "human" character. He's a threat, as a leader.
@Colendro8 жыл бұрын
+Baigandine L If he is intended to be a newb, why do they give him the most awesome scene at the beginning of the movie where he stops a bolt in mid-air... It's just taht his character developement seems confusing and backwards is all I'm saying.

Yes, it was Obi Wan's voice in the "Force Flashback" scene. They edited a clip of Alec Guinness saying "Afraid" to make it sound like he was saying "Rey" The rest of the line was a new voice over by Ewan McGregor. 2 Obi Wans in 1.
@budgiecat90398 жыл бұрын
That was Obi-Wan's voice in the room with the lightsaber when Rey had that vision as well as Yoda talking. They hired Frank Oz and Ewan McGregor to come in on the set and record the lines. They even used Alec Guiness' voice over, merging it with Ewan's line. They edited a line from the old movies where Alec said "friends" and they digitally altered it into 'Rey'.

Rey is Luke's daughter, who he had trained in secret on the island from the end. Whenever Kylo started killing the new jedi, Luke hid Rey on Jakku before Kylo could discover her, and he wiped her mind. He fled out of guilt and also with the hope that Rey would find her way to him. He left his lightsaber somewhere he knew Han would bring BB-8 with the map, and when Kylo was searching Rey's mind he mentioned an island which she saw as refuge.

I'm caught on something. When Rey first opens the chest and sees the lightsaber, she gets thrown into that side scene that plays an important role. After the scene, it is said that the lightsaber belonged to Luke, and beforehand his father, Vader. I thought the lightsaber was lost when Luke's hand was cut off? Did I miss something?

24:56 Finn isn't a jedi, but I think he's force sensitive at least. He actually uses the lightsaber and manages to get in a hit against Kylo. The lightsaber was given to Finn, when it could have just as easily been handed to Han in that situation, but Han wouldn't have been able to use it due to his inability to use the force. When Finn refuses to fire on innocent people and Kylo walks by, he doesn't see Finn being disobedient, he suddenly senses it and then looks. Again, Finn isn't a jedi, but I wouldn't be surprised if he does end up receiving training in the future.

Most people in the movie probably haven't seen Jedis in over 60 years. During the originals everyone thought they were extinct. Jabba's sail barge got blown up, whoever survived probably only felt the explosions everyone who saw this dude with a lightsaber got hacked. In Aftermath, the Empire tried to hide the death of the Emperor. The new regime is now The New Republic. The warring factions are separate from the Government: First Order and the Resistance (even though everyone knows they are supported by the Republic.

I think we need to be carefull saying “That’s not Leia. “Or “That’s not Luke.” I cought myself thinking it too. We may need to come to terms with the fact that its been decades since we’ve seen these characters and people change over that amount of time. These may not be the same people we remember and its unrealistic to think they would never change. We’ll see if they lay the necessary groundwork to reconcile the characters past and present.

Hey Greg, Maz Kanata ' s comments on the force were completely in line with what Obi Wan tells Luke in A New Hope. He tells Luke "the force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. I SURROUNDS us. It penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together."

That was a good point. Rey's fixation with staying on Jakku is really unatural. Anyone would have grown tired of marking the days on the wall after less than half that time. Was that a comand that was Force-implanted in her subconscious? She keeps talking all the time that "I've gotta go back to Jakku, I've been away too long..." It takes Maz's telling her they're not coming back for her to, so to speak, break the spell. That's raises some really interesting questions.

I was ten when the first Star Wars came out and now I am 48. So it is hard to invoke the same feelings of awe that I felt from the first movies. However, the Force Awakens was better than the last three movies. A better mix mix of CGI and practical effects. I was thrilled to see the old characters and find out what had happened to them. The new characters will develop (I hope) as the franchise moves forward. Im just glad that my children enjoyed the movie. They are now a part of the Star Wars fandom that I have always enjoyed.

In response to the Kylo Ren vs. Rey and Finn fight; I have to trust the Finn was trained in various forms of combat growing up to become a storm trooper. I've heard loads of folks gripe about Finn using a light saber, but look at our basic law enforcement officers; they are trained with firearms, they are trained with batons, they are trained in hand to hand techniques. It's not a stretch to think Finn can at least wield the sabre to some extent.
