It takes talent and it a large amount of time to do but in a way studios have become lazy relying on It too much. Effects have gotten better but they don't know how to "hide" it anymore
This is cgi too but looks way better than the pics above
Actually some of that looks good. The cgi at that geonosis battle scene was terrible no practical effects whatsoever al green screen it looks almost as cartoonksh as those shark boy. or spy kid movies. You can tell all the. Geonosisians in the crowd were repeated renders. I like the action in that scene but I'm Just giving an example Of really bad cgi. -

It's OK. Every thing about it was good except for the reshed romance between anakim and padme. Dude hasn't seen her I n ten years. From what I get he wasn't thinking about her until he saw her. Then forgets all his neck training and starts creepsetting ("don't look at me like that"........" Sorry m'lady") she blew him off for half of the movie. Then at the face of death she loves him. K just felt they come of came with something better than that. Every thing else was good though. The bounty hunter chase in the beggining. More of the Jedi temple. Obi wan doing detective work. Jango fett. The battle of geonosis. Etc. -
They made anakin seem like a ? creep. He hasn't seen that girl since he was like 11... So he 21 now and talking about this girl like he knew her since forever . Then they fall in love like that's stupid

The endless exposition & round table discussions talking about ? that would've been much more exciting to see. The wooden acting. The horrible CGI (save for Ep. 3). Atrocious dialogue. ? poor chemistry. Midichlorians.
Nah... Wasn't a damn thing good about those prequels. Only episode 3 was decent. -
The local news here just ruined the ending and said Harrison Ford died. If I hadn't already seen it o would've been so ? .

I don't get why the Star Wars prequel films get hate like they do. I understand the first movie was probably like *meh* to some people because a little kid was the lead of the movie and it was slow but a decent movie came out of it. Episodes 2 & 3 were the backbone of the prequels and you can damn near put them up there with the original films.
Co-sign. The Phantom Menace is absolute trash, but Clones and Sith are good movies. Just as good if not better than Return of the Jedi.

Force Awakens was pretty dope. Honestly, its just A New Hope remastered.

*never seen a Star Wars movie but somewhat interested in Force Awakens post*

Hahaha two of my coworkers saw it yesterday for free and they are upset,they said they were mislead about FinnThey are upset he wasnt a Jedi or the main hero because Rey Saved the day and Finn ran away the whole movie, he was a slave.
I mentioned he may be force sensative but at this point Boyega was used to get African Americans to support the movie, very smart advertising because otherwise black people dont support star wars that strongly. If Black movies were making alot of money recently I dont think the trailers would of looked like they d -

Finn was the real hero in the movie and there's hints of him being force sensitive. -
Finn is Luke's son
Rey is some random broad
Finn is gonna give Rey the 8 in Epi 8
Hayden was ? terrible in the prequels
Padme ? sucked
The prequels told the story but sucked at it
Kylo ain't even finish training so I don't know how he's stronger than Vader like some of y'all are saying
Darth Maul survived
Finn is no way possible Mace's son, way too many years pass by from prequels to these 30 years after Return
Vader did more than ? kids... He killed off almost all the Jedi on his own as well as entire planets... Without the Death Star

Just saw it in IMAX 3D. ? was live af. Loved how there was constant action and not long drawn out dialogue.
Definitely looking forward to the next one.
*First time ever watching a star wars movie* -

Yet people forget Billy Dee williams (hero) and James Earl Jones were main characters in the OG ones
And Sam Jackson was a big character in the the prequels.
Wtf these people on.
These ? are cinema militants

Y'all remember the scene where Kylo was talking to Rey, and he was talking about Han feeling like a father figure to her, but she would be disappointed? Maybe she is Han and Leia's daughter. Luke don't strike me as the dude to risk some ? with the dark side over some ? .

Ok so here we go........ @Sion , @VIBE , @Broddie ...tell me what you thinkFinally some decent subtis came out for the cam torrent, so I went ahead and watch -- there's no captioned theatres near me so that my only recourse if I wanted to watch it
Now on the theories of mines ---
It's an ongoing theory that most folks think Finn might be related to Lando somehow.
Put I think --He might, but I'm not sure if he's Lando's son. Might be a family member kid related to one of Lando's siblings in one of the Empire camp...that would be a way that Vader also kept Lando in line at Bespin (Cloud City)
Since we know Abrams took from the old "EU" somewhat, here's an outrageous one I thought of, but sensible if you think about it -- What if Rey is Luke's kid BUT her mom would be Mara Jade? ....Except Mara won't be the "Emperor's Hand" in the SW sequel universe but somehow still is force sensitive?
Plasma will be back. If anything, I can see her going the Boba Fett route...
Snoke could be a clone of Palp. I mean the Clone Wars did set the precedent of having clones in the universe. What would be wilder if Snoke was a clone of Anakin.Could you imagine that ? ?
Going back to Kylo, he's going full on bad. It's gonna be either Finn or Rey battling Kylo at the end.
? , let's make my theory on Finn even wilder..........what if Lando and Mace are from the same family line as Finn...Mace would be the grandfather, Lando the father (but the force skip him over) , and Finn got the power of his grandfather. Remember ...the branch tree of the force that Mace studied is surprisingly powerful because it teeters to the edge of the dark side, which when you think about it...it the balance to the force
