The more I think about the argument that TFA is a rehash, the more it baffles me. It isn’t in the argument itself, because I do understand the viewpoint. On one hand, I can’t imagine the writers accidentally making the movie so very similar to SW/ANH. Then again, I can’t imagine them sitting around thinking, “Hey, lets redo that old movie exactly! No one will notice!” Did they want to make it simialr and accidentally make it way more similar than they intended?
I still love TFA regardless.
