I’ll give you interesting characters for R1, but TFA’s characters are about as deep as a puddle.
This is literally the first time I’ve seen someone express this opinion, even here where every single opinion possible is expressed.
TFA being a disappointment to a lot of people isn’t news. I’m sure the people who just wanted fan-service were more than happy and more power to them, but I want more from a Star Wars film than [Insert Iconic Trade Mark Visual Here #72479], over an interesting story or characters.
What are you talking about? R1 is cluttered with fan service on highly distracting measures.
Please, tell me the difference between the fan service in TFA and the fan service in R1.
