Chase in an asteroid field?
The one in AOTC? Besides the fact they’re in an asteroid field, the scene plays completely different than in TESB.
Queen/Princess is held captive.
Yeah maybe. Luckily it plays completely differently from ANH/TFA.
Funny thing is when I tell someone that Rey and Finn stealing the Millennium Falcon and flying through the desert and even inside a crashed Star Destroyer is different from how the escape from Tatooine played out in STAR WARS they don’t want to hear that shit.
We can apply your post to a great many things in TFA.
Hand cut off by lightsaber and replaced with robotic hand?
Climax is a space battle in which both Luke and Anakin blow up a spherical thingy to save the day
Reference to Luke’s journey, the reason the PT itself exists: to show us how Anakin and Luke were alike, yet different. We already knew he had a robotic hand since ROTJ (which was shown exactly for the same reason), so he kind of had to tell us how it did happen 😄
That’s true but it didn’t necessarily have to happen by the hands of a Sith Lord in the second movie to which our hero defeats him in the third one in front of Palpatine.
Palpatines apprentice offering the hero to unite against Palps?
A Jedi finds a Force Sensitive on a desert planet and takes him off world to train in the ways of the Force
Other references to Luke’s journey.
It’s still less original than what happens in TFA regarding Rey being noticed as a Force Sensitive.
This Jedi is then killed later in the film by a Sith Lord in front of our hero/s
Award ceremony at the end (not really a plot point but an overt parallel nonetheless)
No, a character death is an actual plot point. The way in which he dies would be a visual reference. Also I even said the Award Ceremony wasn’t a plot point so it’s a bit redundant to point that out.
