[@bluboy4ver2]

People really hate 1-3, I actually liked Revenge of the Sith, Anakin's transformation into Vader is one of my favorite moments.

[@deathtyrantart]

It's good but it for sure has his flaws. If they strictly focused on his transformation then they would all have been better.

[@bluboy4ver2]

Nick Bowker Agreed!

[@Clear706]

+Channing Beauchene Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! lol

[@cnemnich1]

+Channing Beauchene Yeah, Revenge of the Sith was definitely the best of the prequals, and was almost a good movie in it's own right, but it still had too many flaws and direction problems for it to be considered good.

[@david-fm3gv]

+Channing Beauchene and may the gods somehow, maybe one day have mercy on your soul

[@mickeymckay5459]

I think Chewie's performance deserves a huge nod

[@OneMinuteMovieReviews]

+Michael Mckay So excited to see more Chewie and Rey together

[@charliekelly478]

+Michael Mckay Oscar Pick

[@MichaelCutts7]

+Gilbert Mendez "I like this thing!"

[@popbampop8bam231]

Yeah! Like a metal... Oh wait...

[@dubbela07]

Agreed. One of my favorite moments in the movie, also the most heart wrenching, was when Chewy yelled after Han was stabbed by Ben.

[@kodygamesyt2609]

My favorite scene was when Kylo Ren was having a temper tantrum and those two stormtroopers did a 180, LOL

[@commander0zero]

+KodyGamesYT I actually liked that alot.

[@kodygamesyt2609]

Yea it was so funny!

[@kodygamesyt2609]

Cool

[@kinggoten]

+harrylogic serious? thats awesome

[@radioactivesuki4005]

The thumbs up part too :)

[@Paulmatthew22]

They should have called this movie An Old Hope

[@jodroboxes]

+Paul Grady Or, A Newer Hope

[@Paulmatthew22]

Or a Plagiaristic Hope

[@usnairframer]

+Paul Grady A Millennial Hope.

[@Paulmatthew22]

Eric Wilkinson​ A HOPE for SOMETHING ALOTT BETTER

[@TheElKeo]

Or "A Cash In"

[@spaced_ghost]

I can't stop thinking about how good of a character Kylo Ren is man. Fuck. I just want to see this movie on loop for the rest of the week

[@BlurTriX]

Right!

[@Sebastian4216663]

+Ahmed Faraz At first I didn't understood the tantrums neither, but the more I think about them I think it contributes to the overall character, he is just training, I expect him to become different moving on, and the overall emotional aspect of him will eventually make him more interesting.

[@Sebastian4216663]

***** It is, but maybe it'll change moving on, I calmed when I heard snoke saying that he is still missing the final part of his training.

[@lily-_-]

+Ahmed Faraz That's kind of the point. He's a terrible SIth lord, and it's just interesting how different he is from usual Star Wars villains. He's a whiny petulant teenager with a lot of anger issues, but he also has all this power. There's so much room for growth in either direction as well.

[@Sebastian4216663]

+Ahmed Faraz lol he does look very underwhelming without the helmet, but I wanna believe that was the intended effect, like the line of Han Solo saying he didn't needed the helmet, like mocking him and telling him that he is just a dumb kid who is confused. I have, pun intended, hope for the character, but if in episode 8 I don't see a turn I'm gonna be seriously disappointed.

[@spaced_ghost]

"Mark Hammil's not a very good actor either" Chill bruh. that's the Joker

[@OneMinuteMovieReviews]

+fm232 Colin did say he's more of a Voice actor now

[@SlumDogEpiphany]

+OneMinuteMovieReviews go watch him as the trickster on the flash... he's holding back tho

[@SlumDogEpiphany]

+fm232 also he wasn't at the time... plus poor directing (which I think works as he comes off as naive but not acting like he's naive but actually naive)... but his Joker is Legendary

[@SlyMagma]

+crimsonkinge Mark Hamill isn't really that great of an actor

[@SlumDogEpiphany]

that's all perspective... I really enjoyed him on The Flash.. hope to see in one day as a version of the joker to match the voice

[@JonathanJordan526]

Came back to this video because I'm nostalgic for this movie after seeing The Last Jedi, and for Colin.

[@JEDIFROMHOTH]

Dude me too!! I really hope Colin does a video for Last Jedi

[@gabreho]

did you catch the bit when kylo was trying to read Rey's mind? He talked about and ocean and an island... does that mean Rey already knows where Luke is? has she been there before? or it is just that the map she already saw contains info about the ocean/island? cheers

[@liamdurks90]

The scene Tim mentions isn't in the film, with Finn holding the light sabre is 100 percent in the film....how do you think he got slashed on the back and the light sabre was flung from him.....

[@kindafunny]

I'm talking about the exact shots from the trailer. Obviously the fight is in the movie.

[@ChimpFancy]

+Kinda Funny The shot was in there but Finn already had his saber on

[@aaron-downey]

+ChimpFancy No man there is a smiler shot but its from a different angles and the scared shot wasnt no no no no no no

[@kcfdz]

+ChimpFancy Tim is referring to the shot in the trailer where you view Ren from behind walking all menacingly and revealing the cross-shaped lightsaber for the first time. Never get to see that first move from Kylo.

[@betrayermoon]

+liamdurks90 pretty sure the scene with kylo turning the saber on is from reys vision when she touches lukes lightsaber isnt it?

[@IndraHatton]

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.

[@BryonLape]

+Indra Hatton That's one of several reasons I keep calling this movie a soft reboot along the lines of Battlestar Galatica.

[@alexloupe7325]

+Indra Hatton Exactly. They canabilzed the entire original trilogy for this film. I have this image of them all in a meeting and JJ being like "guys, I have all these great, original ideas for episodes 8 and 9... but we have to set it up with episode 7 and to do that we'll have to just rehash all the previous movies. that cool?"

[@jordanarellano455]

Yeah, I'd say they changed it enough to be it's own thing.

[@IndraHatton]

+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.

[@yupidoda]

+Indra Hatton That's actually a very good way of looking at the film. I can definitely agree that the intention was to bring the fan base back in with familiar elements. Can't wait to see where they take the story now!

[@protoman2260]

I love Tims smile at the camera when Colin talks about the weapon the storm trooper used in that fight. Its so funny and just says so much without saying anything at all lol

[@Zarathos91]

So much of character buildup for Kylo Ren. I looked up to Kylo Ren till he unmasked himself. His face was quite dissapointing. And the tantrum he was throwing didn't help him being people's favourite either. I would rate him below General Grevious. I had so much of hope on Kylo Ren.

[@Paulmatthew22]

+Sathya I thought the same thing,.TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT,.He didn't look related to Han Solo at all,.Annoying as hell

[@ricardopontes7177]

speak for yourself. I thought the guy made an outstanding job. Ren was my fav...

[@Paulmatthew22]

+The Escapist Man aI am speaking for myself you fucking Fan Boy

[@ricardopontes7177]

+Paul Grady quoting Gollum: Wasn't Talking To You !

[@Paulmatthew22]

+The Escapist Man Good fan boy

[@taylorewalters]

"bitching about the prequels is done!" then stop bitching about them. as a fan of the prequels, I wish people would just shut the fuck up about how awful they are. I understand every fan is allowed their opinion, but enough is enough. it's been over a decade of this bullshit & I hate how every time I tell people I genuinely enjoy the prequels, they call me ridiculous & try to convince me otherwise. I get it; you don't like them, but I do so please just shhhhhh.

[@DarkElfPaladin]

+Taylore W I agree. The originals were better, in my opinion, but i still like the prequels. There is a lot of deep story that people don't see in them.

[@taylorewalters]

+KC Hammer the original trilogy will always be on its own pedestal & I think it should be. I just hate how people totally negate the stories the prequels told us, ya know? I'm not saying they're perfect, but they're enjoyable & give us a look into life before Vadar.

[@DarkElfPaladin]

+Taylore W For sure. Important things do happen, contrary to what Colin says. I'm sick of hearing people say there are only 3 Star Wars movies. The prequels are as much Star Wars as the originals.

[@oldytron7840]

+Taylore W Dude, i thought the prequels were good. my favorite one is the clone wars. I don't see why it gets so much hate, but die hard star wars fans can be really obnoxious some times. They think only their opinions matter and I beg to differ.

[@plo617]

I really feel that the prequel hate is getting out of hand. Especially since, IMO, the Force Awakens wasn't that good. Especially from a story perspective.

[@AshesAriseTW]

Rey is definitely Lukes daughter, considering han never recognised who she was but knew who kylo (ben) was, makes me think they will make rey lukes daughter. Daisy Ridley was a fucking badass in the movie, we all cheered in the theatre when she used the force to get the lightsaber. I hope in EP VIII she modifies her staff and turns it into a double lightsaber

[@IndraHatton]

+AshesAriseTW Loved the moment Rey grabbed the lightsaber, string stuff. She has to be Luke's daughter. You can almost read it in Luke's eyes at the end. I liked Greg's idea of Rey having her memories suppressed or something, I'm still rather confused as to why she was left on Jakku though.

[@xTGE]

+Indra Hatton maybe when Luke left in shame he left her on the planet?

[@IndraHatton]

+xTGE yeah, or to protect her from the Knights of ren?

[@Eric-pz9hv]

+AshesAriseTW I am not so sure. Leia could have been pregnant when Han left and he never met her. And Jedi's are not supposed to fall in love and get married. That would be giving into your emotion, very unjedi like. When she saw Leia there was definitely something there like they knew each other before. I am teetering both ways right now but one thing is certain, she did get the force through her blood line for sure.

[@IndraHatton]

+Eric Seidl But Leia and Rey has some poignant moments after the battle at the end, you'd think she'd tell Rey there & I don't think Leia would send another one of her children to Luke after what happened to Kylo. Luke can fall in love and such etc. as Yoda & Obi Wan never mentioned it to Luke. Also, I feel that the story arc of the Jedi is for them to be destroyed and rebuild (by Luke) as their practices & attitudes in the prequels were misguided.

[@d00mshr00med]

I thought Kylo Ren was going to ask Han to kill him in some manner of assisted suicide... I honestly wasn't expecting him to turn the light saber and kill Han on the spot

[@ExtremePPVuploader]

I really really enjoy you guys talking. Great company talking about star wars. You got every little single detail about the movie and it was enjoyable.

[@dantesilvermine5160]

Christ Colin not everyone hates the prequels. Theres interesting story strands in that trilogy as a whole and Revenge of the Sith is a good movie especially. force awakens was fine but had zero originality it was like a dlc skin pack for episode 4

[@thejanusproject32]

+Chris C I agree, holy shit get over it, we get it.

[@paulallen1548]

+Chris C Agreed the prequel hate is getting annoying.

[@starhunterterra9849]

salaciouscrumb, episode VII was a joke, it was meant to bring in the old and new fans with old material with new characters added. I expect better from the next films for sure.

[@galacticrelic258]

+Chris C "zero" the movies used symbolism to represent the original film " a new hope" it isn't a fucking carbon copy. This film brought so much to the franchise to say that it isn't original at all is a joke.

[@Tedakin]

I had a few complaints like Captain Phasma basically being a non character after the hype and how simple blowing up Starkiller Base was..... But overall good time.

[@jurgenkoks9142]

+Tedakin For myself I wanted to think of it like this, that she might either be a undercover rebellion agent or she might be unsure about the first order aswell. She might also just be someone who is badass but has never actually witnessed war. I have a feeling she will turn on the first order aswell or she might change her attitude completely and try to hunt the rebels down. I think they wanted to show her so pathedic to give in the next movies her a reason to be badass. I hope at least.

[@ponchomkr]

+Tedakin I think she's going to be the Boba Fett of this trilogy. Like she doesn't have many lines and has few scenes but she looks BA and she has an intimidating presence about her.

[@ranma6276]

+Tedakin Definitely wanted more Phasma and Poe for that matter. Starkiller was definitely too easily destroyed and Rey learned the force way too quickly. But aside from those issues, I really enjoyed it.

[@Whitephoenix98]

+Tedakin That's my biggest complaint as well. The movie is great, I just expected Captain Phasma to actually be important. If she doesn't come back to do something, I'll be sad.

[@Curt_Randall]

+ponchomkr almost certainly Phasma is the Boba Fett of the new trilogy. She has a motive now to hunt down Finn and bring him to Kylo. Surely he is worth something to Kylo to help lead him to Rey.

[@seebooze]

I'd love to know how George Lucas pitched Ep. 7-9

[@seebooze]

***** I'd still love to know what his plot-arc was... & the differences of what became... something we'll likely never know

[@sionhughes9044]

+RarityGamer probably something to do with tax

[@seebooze]

Shaun Hughes ha, i get it

[@nx266]

+RarityGamer He said something about it being a long time after Return of the Jedi. I think the insinuation was several generations.

[@Sora96]

+RarityGamer Having a female Jedi lead was his idea.

[@owenconcannon4342]

Colin mentioned Luke's green lightsaber in Jedi, but in Force Awakens the lightsaber, that is said to be his, is blue when other people use it. Any thoughts?

[@McSweetalot]

*Spoilers* Did you notice that when Rey is eating outside the AT-AT and she puts on the X-wing fighter helmet on the side of the helmet it says RED V. Luke's codename when he is flying to destroy the deathstar! How do you think she got the helmet? I think its pretty obvious that Luke at least brought her to Jakku... maybe more? *Spoilers*

[@clarktownsend9346]

just watched it again and good fucking catch dude.

[@mykelc205]

I'm impressed with your attention to detail..you must be great in the sack.

[@RogueIntent]

+McSweetalot I also noticed a doll that she had in her living places that kinda looked like luke in episode 4 in his orange uniform some more early foreshadowing I noticed.

[@Whitephoenix98]

+RogueIntent Damn, really? I saw a doll but didn't really pay attention to it.

[@cringeproof100]

+McSweetalot Amazing observation now I'm even more sure she's his daughter

[@dkhawk12]

Am I the only person who doesn't mind the prequels??? Lol

[@YoooEric]

+dkhawk12 Nope. I like Episode I and III, I can't sit through Attack of the Clones though haha.

[@ricardopontes7177]

I enjoy them and I don't care what people think...

[@damienx0x]

+Tipsy McStagger Yes but Darth Maul died almost immediately. Another genius decision by Lucas!

[@thedidact07]

+dkhawk12 Episode 3 wasn't too bad, but one and two were bad. I don't get how anyone can like boring, endless exposition and political shit with awful acting.

[@aime1517]

+dkhawk12 Nope I liked them too. While I don't think they were Oscar worthy, they at least had some originality. Unlike Episode 7: A New Hope 2.0 -_-

[@nyl0n]

do you guys think that kyle katarn would make a good character in future star wars movies?

[@geoffp326]

Anyone know where I can get the female stormtrooper captain's silver armour for my girlfriend? Just asking...

[@tomtrivett2022]

let colin speak tim please

[@OneMinuteMovieReviews]

+Tom Trivett But we need to witness Colin's thinking face :D

[@caoimhinjpnlevel3552]

+Tom Trivett Yeah it was annoying how Tim kept cutting in on Colin, Colin is the biggest Star Wars fan there and knows the most about it. I'd like to have heard more of Colin's thoughts on the Force Awakens. People were complaining about Nick hogging the conversation in another video and how Tim couldn't get a word in. Tim basically did the same thing to Colin here lol.

[@sweeney93]

He was so bad in this one, I mainly watch these for Colin's opinion

[@ThaIceMan05]

Did they really say that Mark Hamill isn't a good actor. Wtf? Unsubscribed. These guys have no idea wtf they're talking about.

[@rdijk17]

+Peter Korman ooh god........................ can we pleas do 1 min silence because you destroyt him OMG its just silly for him.

[@ThaIceMan05]

+Peter Korman Dude, shut the fuck up. Smh.

[@JuanGarnicaVera]

+ThaIceMan05 I can not imagine another actor dealing with "Luke I am your father". Not possible.

[@DoxdyKing]

+ThaIceMan05 No... No... That's not true... That's impossible!

[@dunkydog1676]

+ThaIceMan05 yeah he good in the big red one with lee marvin

[@littleincanwill46]

Did the first order destroy the republic before they were going to destroy the resistance? If so was the republic and the resistance the same and how?

[@frailhawk8338]

I wonder how Many people noticed the Chess pieces. They were in the same position as when Chewbaca got defeated by R2D2

[@Newadventuresinpony]

Snoke is definitely Darth Plaguies.

[@mathiass1166]

Just what I was saying

[@freddyzcount90]

+Newadventuresinpony How? He was murdered by Darth Sidious.

[@Newadventuresinpony]

+Frederik Kehlet Or was he?

[@mathiass1166]

Never believe everything they says

[@SmileySmiles]

+Newadventuresinpony NO HE'S CLEARLY JAR JAR BINKS CMON

[@PlatinumV3]

Colin doesn't know that Darth Maul is actually alive and God damn he does so much evil shit to Obi-wan like make fun of him for not saving Qui gonn and when Maul killed Obi-wan's lover in front of him.

[@YourOnlyHope89.]

+Platinum V3 The expanded universe was rendered non cannon by the new movies.

[@PlatinumV3]

Michael Kelly Actually I am not talking about the Expanded Universe. I am talking about the Clone Wars show which is Canon. All six (now seven) episodes, the Clone Wars and Rebels are canon.

[@JrPeople64]

you tell Mikael

[@brooksbrooks6805]

+Platinum V3 there is never gonna be anything from the shity clone wars in the new movies...

[@PlatinumV3]

Ryan Brooks Why would there be anything from the Clone Wars in the new trilogy, the war took place almost 60 years before Episode 7. The Clone Wars is like Korean War to us.

[@PeterLangdon]

The voice over from the flashback of Obi Wan was both Sir Allec Guinness and Ewan MacGregor; they announced that both actors spoke the line and the voices were overlaid together for the scene. Which just makes it even more awesome, IMO.

[@832studios]

Great job guys! Best discussion I've seen on KZbin so far. Subscribed :)

[@SpaceInvader414]

Tim .. at 25:10 you say there is no scene where finn is scared in the movie ! actually it is :) so only the kylo ren scene with lightsaber is cut off

[@druMMaBoY609]

+Patrick Lopez-Perrodin Maz Kanata says that line, not Leia

[@haighben]

+Patrick Lopez-Perrodin your basically saying Rey is a girl...

[@SpaceInvader414]

***** i posted a time in the comment for a reason dont you think ? click on that time and listen to what tim will say and then come back !

[@SpaceInvader414]

:) no problem

[@falconbox]

+Pixel Junkie Kylo Ren's scene was in it too, but not at the same time (fancy editing). They showed Kylo walking in the snow and igniting the lightsaber in the flashback/premonition Rey had when she first touched the lightsaber.

[@SpaceInvader414]

Star Wars Episode VII The Feels Awaken

[@ni55an86]

Did anyone else notice the actor who played Jango presumably playing an old clone defector in the resistance base during the x-wing attack?

[@Captain_Neckbeard]

My eyes were blurred with tears at the intro. I've waited so long for good Star Wars.

[@samuelginaven]

True Star Wars fans respect the prequels for what they are. They weren't the best but they were Star Wars so get over it.

[@taylorewalters]

+Samuel Ginaven say it again! and again! AND AGAIN! THANK YOU!

[@ranma6276]

+Samuel Ginaven GTFO of here. Garbage ass films.

[@PlatinumV3]

yup, you don't have to like the films (I don't like Episode 1 and 2) but at least they are not the Holiday Special and Ewok Adventures. My order of favorite episode: 5, 3, 7, 6, 4, 1, 2

[@X82BIGBLUE82X]

That's called begin a fanboy.

[@AuthorityCat]

+Samuel Ginaven The movies suck, but the story is great. Just got destroyed by early CGI and bad acting, and even more importantly, fan backlash changing the story. It would've been better if people didn't get so pissed off, forcing George to change things.

[@peterquiambaojr.7132]

I think it's too early to say Finn isn't a Jedi. After Finn and Rey escaped from the The First Order in the Millenium Falcoln, they both freaked out at how well they did even though they'd never done anything like that before. To me, that seemed like both of them using the force to survive, similar to how young Anakin used the force to race pods. Although Finn's Force powers never kicked in like Rey's, I believe the scene I mentioned is a hint towards Finn developing a connection with the force when he wakes up.

[@MrYoyt]

REALLY REALLY DIG THIS CHANNEL. This my for sure go to for gaming and movie talk. Keep up the good work!

[@Kon8603]

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.

[@MitchellM929]

I loved this movie. Fun, sad, epic, nostalgic. But most of all I was surprised by how damn FUNNY it was.

[@OneMinuteMovieReviews]

+mitchcafc1895 *thumbs up*

[@TheKyle0812]

Personally I did not like the overuse of humor. It was a little too much for a Star Wars movie to me

[@treyhoback9790]

+Kyle Tetzlaff If you dont like episode 7, you are not a real star wars fan because this movie is exactly what a star wars movie needs to be. Is it the best? No. But JJ did us all a favor by delivering something that we can be proud of. Just be happy that midichlorins and senates have been replaced with deep characters and chemistry.

[@MitchellM929]

+Trey Hoback Remember, Star Wars fans can have different opinions too :)

[@ibitaRaptor]

Apparently Daniel Craig is a stormtrooper in this movie and said a line.

[@JonBerbs]

+ibitaRaptor The part when Rey used the mind trick lol

[@gmnk_gaming5848]

+ibitaRaptor Simon Pegg is the the dude on Jakku that tried buying BB8

[@M4rtyMcFly21]

I'm glad I forgot some of the Trailers because I thought Poe was dead, till he comes back with the X-Wing later on. I was like, oh yeah he was in that scene in the first teaser last year!

[@budgiecat9039]

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'.

[@SuperGreenFirefly]

I totally called Kylo's real name being Ben. Great review guys :D

[@LuLtvGAMING]

+MC Porge I'm pretty sure he yelled "ren" but I could be wrong

[@SuperGreenFirefly]

+Lul.tv definitely BEN

[@lopsiz982]

It was Ben

[@SpaceInvader414]

+MC Porge Kylo Ben

[@FS4UltimateZombie]

+Lul.tv I recall someone saying "The Knights of Ren" during the film so I assumed Ren was more of a title or a postfix

[@sidal714]

I sat through the marathon for Star Wars leading up to the Force Awakens. I loved the prequels, I think they're okay movies. Though I can see why people would hate it, I'm not ashamed to include them in the Star Wars universe. However Force Awakens is probably my favorite Star Wars movie now.

[@OneMinuteMovieReviews]

+sidal714 Probably my favourite too

[@averagesuperman316]

The line after Rey's vision where a voice says "Rey. These are your first steps" was in fact Obi-Wan, and it was performed by Ewan McGregor. I loved this video guys, and I'm glad that Star Wars fans can get excited about the films again.

[@stevenbaker9059]

The battle of Jakku is in the Star Wars novel Lost Stars. The First Order is a group of imperials who banded together after the Emperor was killed.

[@thelastprime3351]

This video PERFECTLY encapsulates my impressions on the movie.

[@kickingitwithjim8066]

I can safely say kylo is my favorite character yet he just is so awesome and besides annakin I have never felt so close to a character

[@ricardopontes7177]

he was so so tangible and awesome.Most unique

[@kickingitwithjim8066]

Just the emotion is so cool to see from him I felt like if I was in the star wars universe I could relate to him so easily this may just be because I prefer the dark side but it just left me wanting more from him cant wait until episode 8 :) 

[@ricardopontes7177]

+Jimmy McFalls Most certainly ! It is a tormented character, in pain. His outbursts were impressive

[@kinggoten]

+Jimmy McFalls well I agree Kylo was awesome Finn and Rey were just SOOOO good in this movie I now have new favorite Star Wars characters(used to be Luke and Obi Wan).

[@kickingitwithjim8066]

Zero Cool luke anakin and kylo are my face three as of now

[@unversedhero6028]

My personal favorite character was Finn, especially when he fights Kylo Ren, sure he loses but still, he is probably one of the only people in the entire Star Wars universe to fight what is basically a Sith Lord with a LightSaber without being force sensitive then actually hurt the guy and live.

[@unversedhero6028]

Plus the parallels between Kylo Ren and Finn, one raised by the light side the other by the dark side, both end up on the opposite side of what they knew, both are traitors in their own right, one knows his family while the other one doesn't, etc.

[@TeRey09]

+Jose Ayala This is great. At the same time Rey getting the lightsaber and basically beating Kylo breaks that whole dynamic. Maybe he'll become a Jedi to directly contrast Kylo but I doubt it.

[@unversedhero6028]

+Terry King As much as I like Rey I feel like they gave her too much (if it makes sense), like not only is she a jedi (and learns to control the force way too quickly) and gets Anakins lightsaber but she also gets the Millenium Falcon and Han approves of her, mean I get she is the the main focus of this story but that's a bit much, at keast in my opinion but like I said the parallels between Finn and Kylo Ren were the more interesting parts for me and am curious if they will (hopefully) build on it and make episode 8 a Finn centric movie where we learn more about him.

[@baigandinel7956]

+Jose Ayala Because Ren is far from being a Sith Lord. Immediately after that fight Snoke says he needs to finish Ren's training...

[@baigandinel7956]

+Jose Ayala Yeah she can use the Force better than Luke and pilot better than Han. At least Han is still better with a blaster.

[@CaffeineRedSquirrel]

What if Poe was picked up by the first order and Kylo Ren brainwashed him after the crash of the tie fighter and now he's a double agent.

[@CaffeineRedSquirrel]

Also how do we know Finn isn't a Jedi we know nothing of his past, we don't know his name and remember that Luke could barley use the force in the first two movies.

Damn, am I the only person who felt unsatisfied after the credits rolled? It's almost Episode IV beat for beat. I'm not saying it was a bad movie, i just think It was a little underwhelming and didn't quite live up to the hype.

[@Killahnoobz]

In the scene where Rey picks up Lukes Lightsaber, a voice does say Rey, and it's Old Ben Kenobi's voice. They were able to change a word that he's said in the past (from something else, not Starwars), with some tinkering, and fit it into the movie; the other voices in that scene are Yoda, from the Original Trilogy, and Obi-Wan Kenobi from the Prequels.

ep 4 - HD Remaster

[@Toniipp]

+zxcnjfrsfg the movie is incredibly similar to a new hope. droid with important info, protagonist ignorant of the force that turns out to be gifted in it, also salvages droids much like anakin, death star 2.0, can be blown up by shooting laser in specific weak spot, millenium falcon to smuggle protagonist to resistance, masked antagonist who serves an emperor figure.

As to that comment about people in Jabba's palace remembering Luke... they pretty much straight up murdered everyone there to death.

[@menghao737]

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.

[@SolidMGSnake]

Why didn't Kylo Ren stop chewwies crossbow shot? Why didn't he use force grab to take the lightsaber away from Fin?

[@SolidMGSnake]

+Peter Korman How did he not see that coming? At the beginning of the movie he stopped poes shot midair.

[@daniel-ve7yp]

His mind was busy thinking about the fact that he just killed his father, he wasn't focused

[@jericho7173]

Chewie didn't reveal his hiding location and it was dark, the sun literally dissappeared in that scene so it was probably hard to see.

[@flextits4883]

+SolidMGSnake He just killed his father and probably wasn't focused at all. He kinda had a look of regret on his face.

[@DreamsOfMorpheus]

+FullMetal Bat His vision wouldn't have been a problem. Poe shot at him from behind and he managed to catch it mid air. His focus was likely the problem.

And God, I hated the humor in this movie! Can someone agree with me?

[@wattersmd]

+Eric Carnivele The humour was one of the greatest aspects! BB8 "thumbs up" moment was one of the highlights of the film"

[@airyyk]

+Mark Watters Really? I guess our opinions of what Star Wars should be are completely different. That was one of the worst parts for me!

[@wattersmd]

+Eric Carnivele A little humour never hurts. The audience reaction to the funny parts was also huge, so I'm guessing you might be in the minority

[@airyyk]

+Mark Watters I'm glad we can have an educated discussion. There is no doubt I'm in the minority, I know that. And humor is definitely necessary, I just was disappointed in what the humor was, it felt very "prequel-like."

[@stephengibellini3002]

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.

[@stephengibellini3002]

With the new movie. I felt like Disney played it all too safe, there where characters that didn't rise to the occasion and I fear it set down the same plot that's been done before. Overall this movie was fun and a welcome return to the Star Wars franchise that took me through and epic journey. But I fear that this story has been told before and hoped that they would not fall on what they know.

[@baigandinel7956]

+Stephen Gibellini 1-3 are disliked as a prelude to 4-6. George Lucas complained he "had to do it a certain way." Without the expectations of "what things should be like", 1-3 could be better Star Wars movies than they otherwise would be.

[@Blarpy110]

Kylo does know who Rey is. The line isnt in the movie but its in the Force Awakens novelization. When she force pulls the lightsiber out of the snow Kylo turns around and says "It is you."

[@davidbalfour7217]

I really like how they managed the scene when Finn revealed to Rey that he was a Stormtrooper. I was worried they would exploit that for some cheap, prolonged inter-character tension/conflict.

[@crowthebest]

I just want them to explain how Rey used the force so easily to beat Kylo Ren... other than that it is a good movie.

[@crowthebest]

+Matt Hugh That doesn't explain how she can use the force without proper training, I understand she can use a lightsaber that good but not moving stuff with her "mind/force"

[@jakobkm123]

+crowthebest well Luke could move things in the start of Empire strikes back without any training when he reaches out for his lightsaber so i guess Rey can do it aswell.

[@crowthebest]

+jakobkm123 He had some training with Obi and was introduced to the force by him, but well maybe is not that hard to use it for very "force-sensitive" people like Rey but it really bother me how easily beat Kyle.

[@withanx]

Kylo was also injured and slightly unhinged, as well as obviously not especially skilled with a light saber. Rey obviously had fighting experience established earlier in the movie. And she seems to be naturally inclined to use the force, so her ultimate victory didn't seem unearned to me.

[@Netheryu]

If she really is Luke's daughter, or hell even not, she might have a more complex backstory involving training etc. but had her memory wiped, like Revan. I'm not definitely sure, however.

[@DisneylandExperience]

Loved the movie! Very good time to be Star Wars Fan!!

[@kaleiohulee6693]

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.

[@BBEEAAN]

+Kaleiohu Lee _"In my head cannon midichlorians were just a theory that Qui-gon believed in"_ What? Did you forget the scene in the Phantom Menace where Qui-gon took a blood sample of young Anakin and measured his midichlorians? Remember his count was far larger than even Yoda's? How do people, who seem to be fans, not know the films they watch...?

[@kaleiohulee6693]

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.

[@baigandinel7956]

+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?

[@kaleiohulee6693]

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.

[@BBEEAAN]

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?

[@CristiCroicu]

Who was the old guy on the begining of the movie? He looked very familiar, and he knew who Kylo Ren was, also Kylo seemed to know him also.

[@CKjamlopez]

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.

[@Paulmatthew22]

+ToilBox Couldn't agree more,.Abrahms WHIFFED totally on this,.I can't believe people aren't pissed off like we are,.They just WASTED a bunch of time and left very little to the imagination

[@WonOneWun]

+drbg11 It's a theater in Hollywood where A New Hope originally premiered.

[@WonOneWun]

+Paul Grady Left little to the imagination? all we have after watching the movie are open ended questions. Who is Snoke? Who is Rey? Why is Luke looking for the first Jedi Temple? Who are the Knights of Ren? Who is Hux? What exactly made Ben Solo fall to the dark side? Why was Finn the first stormtrooper to ever break out of mind control? How did Maz Kanata come to have Anakin and Lukes lightsaber? We are left with nothing but our imagination at the end of this movie. This films purpose was to set up the rest of the trilogy and try to recapture the essence of the original Star Wars films. I can understand people being upset but what else did you want or expect this movie to be about? This is just the starting point.

[@dylannismith6671]

Im pretty sure you missed the entire point of ever single little scene in this movie. Everything had a point, a major point, about the true power and nature of the force. It was an amazing lead up to the next 2 :)

[@jmexegesis]

Actually all three original trilogy films were used in order: 1st act New Hope: secret plans hidden in droid, desert planet 'stranded' hero; 2nd act is the 2nd act of Empire: meet the wise sage, dream sequence; Act 3, 3rd act of Jedi: Son confronts dad on catwalk of super-weapon...

[@Garryokee100]

The one thing everyone seems to miss is the new catchphrase. "I've got a bad feeling about this" was said only once. It looks like the new saying is "we're gonna need a pilot" - It was said about 3 times I think.

[@jinxedking]

I just saw it last night, I feel like you guys are critiquing a different movie. I wish the movie was as good as you're making it sound. The visuals were amazing, the pace was great, and the characters had potential. Unfortunately the dialogue ruined the movie for me, most of it was so cliche I was nearly throwing my hand in the air at the theater. Is there a fan translator page out there so I can understand the 20 minutes of conversation between robots?

[@xam30000hehe]

I agree, I think we are talking about completely different films because the dialog is not only funny and clever, but it's very incredibly deep and well thought out. The script was well balanced, the new characters are great, and they managed write it in such a way it overall works and makes sense..... Anyone who says different is either.... #1 A liar #2 An alien with bad taste #3 A robot progammed to lie There is no other conclusion. So the real critics talk before making up baseless bullshit.

[@jinxedking]

+xam30000hehe #1 reason... opinions. If you notice not once did I attack any of the kindafunny crew for their opinions, nor will I on yours. This is youtube and be it for better or worse anyone can voice their opinion. Even your like who claims to be a real "critic". I wouldn't go calling anyone an alien with bad taste looking at the channels you sub to.

[@AlexC-O_O]

Things I liked about this movie: - Liked all the characters overall... besides 6po, I wish they retired him :p - Having stormtrooper interactions and especially one that changes side is a refreshing change - I liked how Kylo Ren is a weak villain looking up to Darth Vader. - The new main bad guy looks badass - Overall I like how the story flowed etc Things I disliked: - Yet-another-blow-the-death-star-mission, especially this early, I wouldnt mind at least some build up to that scene. - Too many lucky coincidences (oh yeah right... the -force- asspulls are strong in this movie ).

[@AlexC-O_O]

+Ging De I also want Finn to become a Jedi, a stormtrooper changing into a jedi would be a nice twist and that would explain why the brainwashing didnt work on him.

[@michaelpescador1200]

+Ging De I thought Finn would have the force just from the trailers but now its hard to see him as a Jedi if he couldnt pick it up right away as Rey did. I see him as a consultant like Leia in the OG. he goes around shooting and fighting but the force isnt strong with Finn from what the movie has shown me. If Rey held her own against Kylo Ren and was able to pick up the force, I see rey being a stong Jedi in this sequel. I see Kylo Ren as a lost soul. I think he will be able to harness both the light/dark the force will overcome him to his demise some sort. I think Leia will die at the hands of Kylo and he will realize he lost control. IDK just making my mind wonder cause the movie was so damn exciting that i need to focus more the second time around...

[@eddieJVa]

I love the scene of the starkiller base blowing up the different planets, it was so sad and handled excellently.

[@Greschienkov]

+wizz lock that scene was really cool, but I wish they elaborated more on how those planets were important for the Republic instead of going "oh yeah, the Senate is located there, let's blow them up!"

[@kinggoten]

+Greschienkov I agree this is the only part of the movie I didn't like, and while I enjoyed the scenes the part where they meet Han and Chewie with the monster things could have been left out to give us a bit more back story so we don't have to read the book to find out about how the republic works etc..

[@Se7enXIV]

I saw the movie with subtitles and it was Obi-Wan's voice that said "Rey..". Yoda was also among those voices, but I can't remember exactly what he said.

[@1GuyWith6Guns]

At 35:00 when you guys mention about hearing Obi-Wan's voice during the vision. I heard it too. Apparently it actually is. They edited a very old clip of Sir Alec Guinness saying "Afraid". Cut the ends so only "rai" (Rey) remained.

[@NicholasLionRider]

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.

[@NicholasLionRider]

***** 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.

[@ysoserious8526]

+Nicholas LionRider You are talking so much shit. But i cannot blame you. You obviously just don't know what you are talking about.... Do yourself a favor and stop writing commentaries.

[@NicholasLionRider]

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.

[@umiluv]

+Nicholas LionRider You want to watch Star Wars stuff that's good? Go watch the Clone Wars series. That series blows The Force Awakens out of the park. Also, the hollowness in how they kill off an entire planetary system was so weak and the tired, boring Nazi iconography. If you think that's excellent film making then you have a lot more films you need to watch.

[@TheCrimsonC0met]

+umiluv Clone Wars blows. Seriously, they needlessly added characters in to entertain children. NONE of the events of that series are significant. Why the fuck did Anakin need an apprentice? Why did we need to insert an entire series of episodes based on Anakin seeing his future? WHY DID WE NEED TO SEE DARTH MAUL COME BACK AND WHINE LIKE A BITCH!? Seriously, the Clone Wars just messes things up regardless of how good you think it is. The Force Awakens does something that the prequels or CW never did- BE GOOD. The prequels all had terrible writing and acting, on top of a cringe- worthy amount of CGI.

+Ghost Emblem They were awful, boring characters, boring plot, wooden acting, monotone delivery, cringeworthy lines consistantly, overuse of cgi for practically every fucking character and background, childish humour......the list can go on and on. And I don't know where you get the idea this dislike is a new thing, it was around back then too. To most of us they were a massive disappointment....and worse still an embarrassment. I can tell you how many people groaned and facepalmed in the cinema when Anakin in the Darth Vader suit did that ridiculous NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! for example......So cringeworthy and poorly done.

[@GhostEmblem]

Richard Mack The characters were interesting, plot was not boring, all three of your next points only really apply to anakin and nobody complains about cgi in any other movie you guys are literally just looking for anything you can say was bad even when it wasn't actually bad. The cgi was actually groundbreaking at the time and as proof its one of the few movies whose cgi holds up even today! When they came out they were all phenominal success' even attack of the clones. It wasn't until about 3-4 years ago when all the casual watchers who had enjoyed it had moved on that you anal people came out of the woodwork and started complaining about stuff that doesnt make any sense to complain about. "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. Who complains about cgi in movies anyway!? "Midiclorians ruined everything" - sorry your fanfics were debunked deal with it. "They killed darth maul without even using him" - they used him more than babafett and better too "The age gap is creepy" - twincest. Yall are bias as fuck the prequels are good!

I guess I should watch it again, because I want to like it, but there are so many things about it that made me not like it very much. I actually think I prefer ep. 2 over ep 7 (and I believe ep 2 to be the worst). I just can't believe how uninspired Ep 7 is. It felt so hollow and predictable. But, I think they have setup ep 8 and 9 for greatness now that they've got all their crappy fan service out of the way.

I was actually really disappointed by this movie, for me it felt rushed, nothing was properly explained, the plot literally was A New Hope, nothing really original was done (it just felt like one big homage to the original trilogy), the villain came across as weak and non-menacing (in part due to him taking off his mask half way through the movie), the writing for the most part was pretty weak, there were a lot of really forced unneeded and unfunny jokes (ie. when Kylo Ren is confronting Poe Dameron and Poe says something like 'who talks first', that completely destroyed the tension in the scene and was the most cringeworthy thing I've heard in a while) the story also feels incredibly rushed, a lot more context needed to be given especially politically (ie. 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 thought I heard a voice from Kylo's mask in the scene with little Ray on Jakku. Kylo freaked out when he heard about "the girl" who helped the droid escape. It could be possible that Ray was placed on Jakku by Kylo Ren.

Tim being so positive to the point of ignoring faults is annoying.

[@camacho_roman_costume]

But I agree with him at 14:30

+j. cam He's a fanboy, it's an entertaining movie but definitely not a "masterpiece".

[@thomast3363]

And then you have Colin who is almost entirely negative. Doesn't miss a chance to insult the prequels. And can't compliment Force Awakens without saying the Original Trilogy was better.

It really was not as great as people are making it out to be. It was good, but there is literally nothing spectacular about it. Revenge of the Sith was a better film.

+George Burchmore It's not a masterpiece but it's a great modern day blockbuster

[@burchmore5000132]

+OneMinuteMovieReviews To me, this film felt more like Guardians of the Galaxy or The Avengers. Those films are great, but they're not Star Wars. My biggest complaint is exactly what Tim mentioned in the video which is that it did not feel like Star Wars. I think that in 6 months time, there will not be the same positivity surrounding this film as there is now.

+George Burchmore You are breaking my heart.

[@causethisisthriller2729]

[@Contevent]

+GoldenChunk What do you mean look alike? Don't we only know Plagueis from a tale told by a known liar?
