Definitely didn’t see the eye gouging thing coming. I also didn’t anticipate that after Maul had betrayed them Ezra would still be on the path to the Dark Side.
Pretty sure cheek kissing isn’t what he meant and neither did I.
Have you ever gotten a kiss on the cheek from a girl between the ages of 13-now? They literally mean nothing.
I meant kisses on the lips. Rey kissing Finn on the forehead means nothing just like a kiss on the cheek. In ESB she kisses Luke on the lips twice though the second one was a peck.
There is no kiss in STAR WARS
A lightsaber duel with a severely wounded, mentally unstable, overconfident and under trained Dark Side warrior
The physical toughness of these characters is not in question, it is their emotional maturity.
No, it’s the physical toughness though emotional maturity does play a part in why he loses because he could have killed Finn within literally 8 seconds. Yet chose to prolong the fight and in turn Finn got a lucky strike on his arm which contributed to his loss to Rey.
And he probably was thinking about his location (since he was seeing it) and broadcast the image too. So more of a satillite and a TV, but whatever.
Nice rationalization, but none of that is presented in the film to make any of what you said stick
Has there even been an official comment on how Leia can sense Luke at the end of ESB even though it wasn’t planned for them to be related at that juncture? Because that’s usually brought up when someone mentions that.
He was specifically calling out to her. One doesn’t necessarily need to be telepathic to receive the broadcasts of a telepath.
All he said was “Leia…Hear me…Leia”
and then she knows instantly where he is. Sounds like Force Sensitivity to me
It’s not just the ‘creepy’ aspect of the two of them being brother and sister that I hate, in fact the main reason why I don’t really love ROTJ as much as the other three good Star Wars films is because of how convenient the whole movie is.
Luke needs to return to Dagobah to finish his training;
“Hmm, just make Yoda die. That way he won’t need to finish his training, and we won’t have to address the fact that Luke was supposed to be making a reckless decision in facing Vader without proper training.”
You have a point. In ESB Luke get’s his ass handed to him when Vader starts trying and then in ROTJ they’re pretty much evenly matched for the majority of the duel. And he had no training in between this…nor did we even see him get training in lightsaber dueling in ESB or SW and even then he was still able to land a blow on the Dark Lord before losing his hand.
There is another hope for the galaxy that is heavily implied to be Luke’s sibling;
“Meh, just make Leia Luke’s sister. That way we don’t have to introduce any more characters AND we can dissolve the love triangle between the two of them and Han.”

The only line that seems too on the nose is “You cannot deny the truth that is your family”. The rest of it is fine though.
EDIT:
That “Han…Solo” line has to go though. I also want to remove the “Bring her…to…me” line. Seems like they were trying way too hard with that one
Exactly how did you see the scenes? We are a couple of days off from the 1st.
EDIT:
Just saw the scenes leaked in their entirety on facebook. My bad.

the one thing that drives me batty in TFA is how Finn get captured by the Rathtar and doesn’t get eaten by these terribly “dangerous” creatures. iThere’s an establishing shot of one of the Rathtars dragging one of the members of Kanjiklub or the other gang before Finn get’s dragged off by one of them.
your right, however, i just think the fact that Finn survives as long as he does is a bit of a stretch.
Technically we don’t see what the Rathtars do to those who they capture but don’t immediately eat so it’s not really a stretch at all.

Finn and the Villager: Finn can’t shoot a woman with a small bundle (child?).
This would have been nice to see as it pertains to why Finn defects from the First Order.

“I know. Somehow…I’ve always known.”
If your remove that horrid line it makes the entire thing exponentially less creepy.

I guess but this is why I don’t convert between the point rating system and the alphabet rating system because they don’t mesh. I have the film at an 8.2/10 and God knows what that would be in the alphabet rating system.
Wait, didn’t you give it a B- on another thread? 6/10 is a D- right?

Why are we trying to find logic in anything surrounding SKB?
About damn time 😃
EDIT: You should watch it a second time in like a week or two to reaffirm your position. It’s definitely a film that should be seen a second time.
Wookiepedia says only some of he fleet was destroyed but Hux’s speech suggests the entire fleet was there so I don’t know.
Seems like an idea that would be better in theory than execution but if anyone can do this successfully it will be a must have in TFA fanedits.
What the hell are you guys doing to our beautiful forum?
Making it great again.
There are people who would literally get off at seeing that…somehow
It’s sad, isn’t it?
Very
^ more or less the same type of fetish. It’s in the same ballpark.
