    How could we have become so different, @Splackavelli? Why can we no longer understand each other? What did we do wrong?

    For those that have seen where would you rank it after first watch?

    to be honest I rank Fore Awaken better... this movie missed on a lot and had a lot of shortcuts

    I dont know mayne its much more bolder then awakens and takes risks whilst doing an amazing balancing act in its storytelling and trynna satisfy the fan.

    I do think it could have done with less CGI as the force awakens but i suppose alot of it was in space so it would be difficult to achieve certain things.

    Thankyou! Just saw it today I liked it I wouldn't say it was the best but its in a pantheon of great starwars flicks,I.e. it shares that title with rots, tesb, Rots and rogue one.
    there was a lot of visualals that I liked and I was looking at the set pieces thinking how they would make good arenas for battlefront 2dlc. I liked the maz kenata hologram segment and I hope they make her a hero character in the next dlc she would be dope. Like as posted before a lot of unexpected plot twist like snoke getting clipped and the code breakers betrayal. Also I thought he was going to he lando calrissian. I like that planet and I hope the prison level will be one of the arenas for battle front 2. Luke was dope all throughout the movie. Yoda's force ghost was one of my favorite scenes. I was smiling on the inside seeing how happy and at peace Yoda was in the afterlife as compared to his demeanor in most other films. That shodow with Luke had him looking like goku about to fight freiza . when the saber passed through him I thought Luke discovered a new Jedi power but he was projecting his image from another planet/solar system ? !. I didn't think luke was gonna die but I have a feeling he'll be back as a force ghost in the sequel my only disaapoimt was that I wanted to see some 501 type ground battle action between the resistance and 1st order storm troopers. Hopefully we will see that in the next movie . this movie was good though it had a lot of suspense kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what was gonna happen next . dope 41/2 out of 5 [oh I forgot , one thing I wanna ask. Wasn't that purple haired lady the chick from Jurassic park?/spoiler]

    good movie! The scene when she did the lightspees through the enemy ship was dope af. They should have done that way earlier though. Yoda showing up was great to see again and how he reminded Luke how he always was thinking too much and not just going with the flow of things. Kylo was that dude in this I liked him and Reys relationship with each other. Only thing I didn't like was how they kept sending my man Finn on them ? missions lol and why didnt they just ? off Leia when she was about to die in space since the actress died in real life? Luke showing up at the end had me hype af.

    Not better than the force awakens or rebels. I was actually disappointed, did not meet my expectations.
    Didn't really love the story, I feel like that could've been told in about an hour, the casino scene didn't seem necessary, I know it got around to the commentary about the military industrial complex but I feel they could have got that message out without that story arch.

    Finn was pretty useless in this movie he won the fight toward the end but needed help. He did have a little knowledge about the enemy's ship but besides that he was just there and it seems like his relationship with Rey is diminishing which will make his character even less important.

    Who the hell is Snoke?

    I'm worried that star wars is getting disneified for lack of a better word. It felt a little too cute.

    I might be bugging but to me it is behind the of trilogy and the last two
