Star Wars: The Force Awakens: An Unbridled Rage

We have our third video in the series which means this is a full on thing now, woohoo.
I shall be working on making a Force Awakens series next and so, get your hype levels, efficiently raised, or something I dunno.

[@whatisantilogic138]

I never noticed that Leia walked right by Chewbacca, to hug Rey. How ridiculous. She has literally known Chewy for like 40 years. He was her husbands best friend. One of her brothers best friends, and he was key figure in helping to save the galaxy and destroy the empire with her.

[@Cr1ms0nRav3n]

Maybe it wasnt the same Chewy, maybe it was Chewy's son that little runt from the holiday special all grown up. Which would explain why he still looked young in TFA. But.....then again, even if it was Chewy's son, Leia should still treat him like family, aaahh f*** it! What an absolute dumpster fire Disney SW is. There's no saving it, what so ever. The prequels really do look good by comparison, holy sh!t.

Joshua Benton I have no idea what’s wrong with Ryan, he’s making just faking simple mistakes film-maker students alone would make: -He completely scraped Jar Jar’s drafts on episodes 8-9, ‘probably explains the shagged potentials MauLer alluded to with all his “ ‘Can’t wait to get more on that” moments -He replaced Jar Jar, like we needed that change and like no-one thought it’d create a consistency problem through that trilogy; they already think it’d get bad press for the “evil white males” and the old fans, so why not keep it careful and keep the same vision from the same guy and make Ryan do a spin-off

[@Arphemius]

I can relate to a soldier following a regime's command... well, not relate, but I can put myself in her shoes. The dumb thing about that statement is that you can only ever relate to someone due to their actions and their character. That's all there is. Phasma is just such a non-entity that there is no way you can even define who she is. She is barely more than an extra. So she had to come up with something to say in that interview and went with the equivalent statement of "the sky is blue". A complete filler statement to mask that there is absolutely nothing going on with that character.

[@viperblitz11]

Arphemius I wouldn’t have wanted to relate to Phasma, personally. I think she should have been a more classic Disney villain, an imposing threat to all the characters. She can still be given human depth in other ways, such as giving her motivations and ambitions. But making her *relatable* to casual audiences runs a high risk of defanging her.

@@destroysgaming3995 In the ST defender's mind, this plot would be totally okay - "30 years after Harry Potter defeated the hated and feared Lord Voldemort...." - Harry Potter has gone missing. His friend Neville Longbottom has sent his best member of the Order of the Eagle to retrieve a map to his location from an old ally. Cho Chang has been taken hostage and a ransom has been demanded from Harry Potter, the legendary wizard who defeated the dark lord years ago. Only with his help can Neville and his brave Eagles defeat the evil Life Feeders..." Hermione Granger has turned into a drunk witch who never uses magic and doesn't want to. Harry Potter has received the Owl about Cho's situation, but doesn't want to help and wants to be left alone. A young Muggle who has never heard of magic, randomly stumbles upon the Owl trying to deliver the message of Harry's location to Neville. Having never been to Hogwarts, the young muggle finds the broom of Harry Potter, his Firebolt, in the back of an antique shop, just as he/she randomly encounters Hagrid who tells her "magic is all true." Hermione is now a smuggler who works with Hagrid smuggling illegal dragon and dangerous materials across the magical world. When Hagrid asks the antique shop owner how he came across the broom, the response is "That's a story for another time." The muggle, who has never been trained in magic, nor heard of it, then runs into a dark robed Life Eater called "Wuhaca". Wuhuca is known to have been a former Head Boy at Hogwarts, captain of the Quidditch Team for Grynfindor and one of Harry Potter's greatest Auror apprentices. He is even said to have been the son of legendary Minister for Magic Hermione Granger. Wuhaca offers the young muggle the chance to serve alongside him and his Master, Lord Incognita. The young muggle outflies Wuhaca and his own wand flies into the Muggle's hand. He is bested with a scar across his face and at the last moment a great chasm opens up in the middle of the London street on which they were duelling. The Cauldron of Doom meanwhile is launching its fire potion beam from the hidden village of New Hogsmeade, somewhere in the south of France. It destroys the Ministry for Magic in one fell swoop. In the ensuing chaos, only Neville's Eagles who amount to a mere 12 wizards and witches remain. They fly their brooms against an onslaught of 900 Life Eaters, but somehow one reckless Eagle manages to break through and fire a reversing spell on the Cauldron which implodes and takes out the entire Life Eater base and 80% of their followers. Lord Incognita tells the deputy Life Eater to bring Wuhaca back to him for further training and to continue to Crucify Cho Chang to draw out Harry Potter. Neville encounters the young Muggle and Hagrid and even Hermione who came out of hiding at the last moment. Neville hugs the Muggle ignoring Hermione and Hagrid. He then plugs in the hidden map of Harry's location into the Marauder's map which points to Harry being on Privet Drive. Hermione stays behind, as does Neville and Hagrid. The random Muggle now dons Harry's broom as her own and goes to Privet Drive where she finds a fat Harry sitting on his balcony. He/she asks Harry for his help to save Cho Chang and Harry Potter takes his broom, throws it into the rubbish bin across the street and tells her to get off his lawn.

Really good point. With Star Wars Episodes 1 to 6, they stand up on their own with backstory and mysteries that are paid off and make logical sense. Maintain continuity etc. They tell one grand story. TFA was not meant to be Episode 1. It was Episode 7. And it didn't continue from ROTJ or explain anything. And well, the rest is history with TLJ too. To think they ditched Lucas' treatments which apparently continued the story for this is unbelievable. And I concur with your point on Bourne.

If Disney wanted money, why they didn't tough about making this new trilogy focusing on how was formed the First Order?, I'm even thinking about the opening credits starting with something like "It's been 40 years of peace in the galaxy but deep in the galaxy the dark side has reborn or I don't know something like that", but the way they started in the Force Awakens, making everything again just like the beginning of A New Hope, means that everything our heroes did in Return of the Jedi was completely useless, nothing changed....the First Order is just the Empire with a different name. The concept of Luke in exile was ridiculous from the beginning, the idea of Ben Solo as the main villain is horrible. I mean, the love of Han and Leia and the guidance of Luke, ended up creating that monster? So technically our heroes saved the galaxy before, but now they are destroying it? Such a wonderful last scenes in Return of The Jedi and now at the beginning of the FA they look totally meaningless. They could have kept Luke alive the whole trilogy, training Ray in a big part of it, other old characters of the past like Admiral Ackbar, Chewbacca, R2, C3PO could have been of more importance, and then by the end of the trilogy Rey and the others could have been fully in charge and the episodes 10-12 based 100% in the new characters.

Can't wait to see what they do with Luke, and why he went to that island, and how he reacts to the death of Han Solo, and how he affects the story!

I thought the Force Awakens was bad, but remarkably, TLJ has somehow managed to make this movie *worse* upon rewatching.

[@ralindrakus7380]

I can still remember trying to talk my brother into coming with me to see TLJ with me. He said 'I thought you didn't like the last one?' To which I replied 'Come one! There's no way it could be worse than Force Awakens!' God I miss my innocence....

[@EziooAuditore]

Wellington I seriously hated TFA but after TLJ it doesn't seem so bad lol. It's still terrible, but TLJ is so much worse

[@EbonyManta]

I must be in the minority, me and my friends actually liked TLJ more than TFA. At least it was _mostly_ trying to be its own thing and not plagiarize A New Hope all the time like TFA was.

[@reefa2931]

I think TLJ is definitely worse than the Force Awakens. It failed on at least 3 separate levels, as a Star Wars movie (that takes place within the larger context of the Star Wars mythos), as a sequal to the Force Awakens (so within the context of the inferior, Disney Star Wars mythos) and as a standalone movie in itself (owing to its numerous plot holes, amateur writing, bad characterisation, terrible world-building etc.). For all the Force Awakens flaws, one could argue that since it's a launching pad for the new universe Disney are hoping to build, it sets the pace for the rest of the trilogy. It sets the rules/context for the rest of the trilogy, so it can't really fail on that level, whilst TLJ very much can and did.

[@EbonyManta]

I dunno, if TFA is a bad start to the sequel trilogy I don't think failing as a sequel to it is that bad a thing. Then again, I don't really get why it fails as a sequel, or why its quality as a standalone movie should matter when by definition it can't be one. I mean, I have my problems with TLJ but not for the reasons most people complain about, and despite the fact that I've thought too much about it, I still like it more than TFA. It actually interests me, while in retrospect TFA doesn't get anything more than a "meh" reaction. There are scenes I genuinely like in TLJ, while everything in TLA is basically a plagiarism of A New Hope, written by someone who didn't understand why the original Star Wars was good.

[@pancakes3224]

You should watch his “A critique of Force Awakens” and his “critique of the last Jedi”... they are super super long and in multiple parts, but they go into expert detail of every aspect of the movies, big and small, every part of the movie and it’s place and connection to the original trilogy, they are incredible videos, he does an amazing job explaining every reason why they are so bad and what they should have done, he points out good things about them too, but the force awakens and last Jedi just have way too much lunacy and take what could have been incredible stories and instead gave us retarded nonsense (although beautiful fireworks) of movies. I fully recommend Mauler’s “Critique of” force awakens and last Jedi videos, they are really long, so what I did is just watch 15-30 minutes at a time and pause the video until the next day and watch it over time to keep me from zoning out lol but they’re great, they helped me realize all the reasons I hated the movies that I couldn’t put into words. I used to think “the visual graphics and explosions and laser fights look so good, if I say I hate it I’m just being a grouch” but no, those videos made me understand why I was feeling like the movies were so dumb and bad.

I've never been a Star Wars girl. I never cared too much, or put my time and effort in to watching the series, but it was still a part of my life. Sitting in my pjs on the living room floor while my family sat around and watched the originals, seeing Luke Skywalker on screen and thinking he was cute, it was still my childhood and I loved that. I was excited for the new movie, so I went to see it with my mom, who was also never a huge Star Wars fan, but still cared to some extent. We were literally giggling in the theater. We were laughing with each other and whispering like school girls about how silly the film was and how none of it made sense. I've known ever since I walked out of the cinema that night that I didn't like the movie, and have argued against countless people over how bad it was. Not having seen the movies in a few years (because I can't force myself to watch it) I can only remember a few key things that I disliked about this film, but watching this video was like going back in time- remembering all I hated about it and things I had questioned as well. I have a particular friend I can't wait to send this video to, just so I can finally drop the mic on all our arguments over this movie.
