As someone who isn't a Star Wars fan and didn't like the Force Awakens at all.
This movie was dope. It had an original story and it actually felt like this movie was made before the originals which is a big achievement for the director. The characters were relatable and that final hour/battle was straight fire. Props to Gareth Edwards for getting me emotionally invested in a Star Wars movie again. The score is a big problem but to not have John Williams and this composer only getting four weeks to compose the score I won't hold it against them. I would never tell anyone who hasn't watched Star Wars to start with the prequels. They are TRASH. But I would recommend this movie before the originals and that's a huge achievement. 7.5/10
That last minute with Vader going H.A.M. ? man... -

I would tell the thostart with the last 30 minutes of episode 2 and watch episode 3thats when it started to look and feel like star wars -
Nah for how restricting this movie was being placed right before part 4 and after part 3 this ? came out great without any plot holes and tbh that's hard to do I. Hollywood

Just saw it yesterday.
It's definitely better than Force Awakens, but.....just like Force Awakens...........it's not as good as any of the other Star Wars movies.
The masses are still gonna eat it up, but Disney isn't doing this franchise justice.
I was watching the TNT marathon when I got home, and I realized that the one thing that's missing from the Disney movies is a strong Jedi presence.
The foundation of Star Wars is the Jedi and the Force.
That's why Darth Vader putting in work was the best part of the movie.
Without Vader, it doesn't even seem like a Star Wars movie.
Force Awakens would've been better if it had focused on Luke Skywalker training his nephew to be a Jedi and what led his nephew to turn to the darkside.
Problem is, they've already told a similar story before with Luke, Obi Wan, and Anakin.
Guess they weren't creative enough to put a new twist on that storyline.
Probably due to George Lucas' lack of involvement in these new movies.
All in all, they're still gonna make money off the Star Wars franchise........but, unless some things change, these new movies are never gonna be as iconic as the old ones.
And I'm not even talking about New Hope, Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi.
These new ones aren't even on the same level as Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith.
Ayo George Lucas

It was the best guest appearance since AZ on illmatic. -
So I'm watching a new hope and obi wan says to Luke that his father wanted him to have his old lightsaber. How is that possible when he was turned to the dark side of the force when he was born?

Obi-wan told Luke a half truth watch return of the Jedi it will all be explained. -

I haven't watched the these in awhile so excuse me. I find myself paying attention to every scene of this movie since watching Rogue one. -
So.... the vader hallway scene was the most unnecessary but most satisfying scene in any movie I ever seen. Obviously fan service and the buzz from that scene will fuel a full on vader movie. Disney is really putting effort into most of their movies involving marvel and star wars.

Very gritty, war action (both on the ground troops and star fighter combats), loved the scale shots too which gave everything a much more authentic feel to the narration
As others said, this could arguably be the best movie in the franchise (definitely one of the best at least).
CGI and other effects were phenomenal and Darth Vader was GOATmy only main criticism was I didn't like the opening 15-20mins of the film. Very boring, scene setting, kept showing multiple cities/worlds with new characters like I was supposed to remember all that, who the characters was and the dialogue....."nah ain't nobody got time for that!"
Will see it tomorrow but ? like this will make the movie an overrated disappointment. Nothing will top the original trilogy just like no Zelda game will top OoT or FF me will top FFVII. -

Episode 1, 2 and 3 introduced a new generation of Star Wars fans. Funny how the movies weren't hated back then and the theaters were packed. They spawned the resurgence of the franchise. -

Negroe please it's not as bad as he says it is. The internet is full of sour pus muphukas who like to hate on what every body else likes. Just like in the real world some people are in love with the sound of their own voice -

B/c they didn't have the Internet back then. Word of mouth was one of the reasons for it success. No Kodi or other streamlined sites that made it accessible to watch it from home.
Of course you had the storyline, special effects, and music that contributed. But not Internet imo is a big reason. -

Like some one on YouTube posted it's like that moment in battlefront when you get the hero power up. Whenever I become Vader on the battlefield ? turn tail and head for the hills because they know what time it is. -
Not so sure it's quite as good as the Empire Strikes Back but I definitely put it as being just as good or better than any of the other movies.
I feel like this movie was especially made for the fanboys were as the Force Awakens catered to the more casual audience.
Vader's coming through with that ether at the end was so unnecessary to the plot of the movie but so satisfying to people who know follow these movies, as soon I heard that deep mechanical breathing I knew what time it was. -
just came from seeing this.......
GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!!! -

While Rouge One isn't on par with the originals this is the 1st legit prequel IMO. Can mos def start with Rouge one then Eps 4-6 and act like the other movies never happened. -
