I didn't think it was total shit because I don't feel the need to feel superior to the majority.

I base that on the piss-poor reasoning for people to hate the movie. Smells of people desperately looking for things to hate in order laughably call the prequels better Star Wars movies.

The horrible quality of the new Marvel comics, the new Battlefront game and the even worse Aftermath novel tipped me off that this new gen of SW was going to be a massive disappointment. The movie was disappointing for too many reasons and it says a lot when the only memorable moments are the early scenes with Poe and Finn getting into buddy shenanigans. That was the fucking highpoint of the movie… The opening scene was good too but the frozen laser blast just made me go all wtf.

>Thinks this is about fags trying to prove the sequels are better despite also being disappointments

Nostalgia and "if everyone likes to jump off bridges I like to jump off bridges" mentality is a hell of a drug.

I really REALLY hate to post this since I hate the nostalgia cuck with a passion but sadly he's one of the few reviewers out there giving an unbiased review of the movie.

honestly, dindu was one of the better things about the movie

sure, nothing about his character was really original (just a mash of eu characters) but it was neat to see it play out on film.


 No.10588

>>10544

Honestly, I was doubtful of the whole Disney deal, I mean, SW is meant for selling merch, and I get why they wiped the EU, but what I don't get is why they chose JJ, I'm not going to say TFA was a horrible movie, I just think it is mediocre.

Boyega's acting was credible. He was given a shit part in a shit movie with shit writing by a shit director.

The Rey character was shit and it was poorly executed, though, but what can you expect from a Mary Sue. There's literally nothing *to* act out other than "be awesome all the time and have no flaws"


 No.10627

i'm completely on board with you about rey, but the more i replay the movie in my head, the more i realize that she had to have been a padawan at luke's academy and was sent away with her memory zapped and her abilities crippled for her safety's sake. the problem with the film is that it implies more than it explains.

i had recently enrolled at a new school in the month of february that was unfortunately, a waste of time. before i became disgusted with the school itself, the other peers in my class all were both young and older yes, but they were all lacking in any common sense or brain cells. the common, below average people as i should have known, populated the school i was to attend. this was month of march.

i walked outside after class to the only table available through out the entire campus and sat for a while just contemplating why did i come to such a shitty school and who had proposed that i go there. i met wonderful brilliant people at another previous school, before we all went our separate but same paths.

i must have only heard rumors then, about a new star wars and then someone beckoned to me and said "LOOK ITS STAR WARS"

there was the trailer with the stupid Hans Zimmer BLAM BLAM FLIM FLAMS and shitty stupid crossguard saber

and "THERE HAS BEEN AN AWAKENING cue sweaty nigger and Apple Imperials"

and the lame sequence of the millennium falcon flying against tie-fighters with the "iconic star wars opening theme"

before the klaxons screamed in my head, one girl who had been squealing in orgasm started CRYING. she was a girl with appealing looks, but had no brain on her shoulders. i then truly realized the guys who had been trying to get at this girl for the last 3 weeks were idiots too cuz they started swarming over her and gabbing their gobs about how epic this was going to be. i then realized if this is how these idiots feel about this movie, the whole nation is in jeopardy.

then colbert that faggot decided to hype his audience of frothing idiots and said that the new lightsaber is cool. what the fuck does colbert know about star wars? hes an idiot on television. he is someone who shouldnt be telling people what is funny and not.

i was at my ends. nobody knew what an a-wing or b-wing was or the different roles of an y-wing or tie-bomber. nobody really cared. all they did was smoke pot and talk about wanting to do drugs, and then taking too much or drinking too much like idiots and ending up in hospital or rehab and coming to this school. i never shared my drugs with anyone there, but the discussions and knowledge i wanted to share about star wars as a film saga became superficial discussion about sharper image lightsabers, lightsaber dildos, and how star wars themed "raves" are the shit. i wanted to understand these people better with deep discussion but nobody had a inkling of what depth meant. to me, their words had as much depth as their attention span. nobody understood the deeper meaning between luke and vaders first duel on bespin.

these were young adults with no idea how the school was going to fuck them and their CHILDREN OUT OF WEDLOCK THEY WERE TAKING CARE OF AT HOME. even the school administration had no idea what they were doing and thought they could rob me, saying their computers processed the tuition a week late and that was my fault so i would have to pay penalties. the teachers had no idea what they were doing and thought they could just give me passing marks on every assignment, even if i deliberately INSULTED my instructor in the written assignments. i couldn't bear the idiocy anymore and i left by the month of may.

before i knew about a new star wars, i was discussing with a close friend about the prequels and what went wrong. what could have been right. what could be changed. how would the generations of future and past who actually enjoy the franchise be changed in what way?

i even thought about starcraft 2, and diablo 3.

even before, i thought about new sim city was nothing like simcity2000 promised to be in the future. all i thought about was disappointment.

and so i started digging on force awakens. learned as much as i could. by the time october came around i was in a state of shock that so many people could eat this shit up AND ASK FOR MORE. i would weep for our species if i had any wish of saving them. this is the dream they are living. when the world wakes, that great reckoning may go by unnoticed.

Just the new movie? Disney purchasing Lucasfilm. I knew everything that was going to come out was going to be irredeemable garbage.

But post RotJ EU was going full retard for years prior, pre ANH EU had run it's course and stagnated into the creative bankruptcy known as TCW. These were redflags showing a major decline in quality and had been slowly making me just ignore SW altogether. Honestly, I'm pretty sure Lucas saw it too. He is a businessman after all. Shit was going down hill.

I realized The Prequels were going to be shit when young Anakin showed up and started talking. That kid could not fucking act and the fact that he was given a lot of fucking dialogue to say including blowing up the shit at the end.

I realized the new expanded universe was going to be shit when I read a couple excerpts from the new Aftermath novel. Absolutely unbearable.

I realized Force Awakens wasn't going to be shit when the opening scene finished. Was a thoroughly entertaining film, much better than The Prequels.

When the Storm Troopers landed and the camera panned over some random background characters but decided to focus on a Spanish woman and place her so close to the camera that you couldn't avoid thinking:

"Oh a Spanish woman is holding a laser riffle and will fight".

As soon as Disney announced that they would be pushing out new movies as quickly as possible.

I'd spent the last seven or eight years content in the knowledge that Star Wars would just quietly produce games and books in the background for fans of the series and that it was finally finished with movies and trying to please the masses. It was like a sort of dignified retirement for a while, but looking back it seems more like a calm before the storm.

Things were just too peaceful to last. I woke up one morning to endless headlines about George suddenly selling Star Wars to the Mouse, and now normies get to enjoy a new, unimaginative Star Wars cash in every fucking year to the end of time.

I never thought I'd live to see all my favorite childhood EU rebooted as sassy genderfluid transracial feminists.

Does not refute the fact that it was then that I understood… Star Wars was going to be shit.

I could live in denial.. that Ewoks were actually far more fierce than they were portrayed, or that Yuuzhan Vong never existed.

Disney kept Maul's survival canon, though.

Maul's survival was better when it was a one-off story of a rematch between Obi and him on Tatooine (he really has no business still existing). Even the doppelganger who fought Vader was neat.

Point is, Maul is only good for making brief appearances only to get his shit kicked in harder than before.

fair enough, but i enjoyed them bringing him back, and i hope they do kill him off with that old wounds rematch.

The fact that there were no decent games after 2007 and any promising release was fucked with and ultimately scrapped. The Disney buyout and the games license being handed to EA ensured there would never be a good Star Wars game again.

>>11842

Force Unleashed wasn't at least decent?


 No.11862

>>11855

I dare say it was more decent.

Sure Starkiller may be a powerful force user, but remember he trained under Vader. He really didn't have a lot of allies and friends (aside from his pilot and the droid) and he underestimated the Sith on numerous occasions. He definitely was no Gary Stu.

Even the Emperor was just playing with the bastard. Sure he was strong but he didn't match up to him. Then again, he never expected to.


 No.11869

>>11855

i love how people are trying to claim luke, anakin and starkiller are gary stus

if anything, anakin is the mary sue in tpm, but he's given a proper background explanation of his abilities, he doesn't just get up and fucking do shit.


 No.11870

>>11869

He was also a slave. And a kid.And probably had R2 to help him piloting with his broad stroke of luck. But I am just guessing on that last part.


 No.11880

>>11870

well yeah, that's the point of having a droid in the ship, they assist with targeting and general maintenance of the ship.

here's the kicker though that debunks the "anakin is a gary stu" defense: rick ole teaches him the specifics of naboo starship piloting, and he even tells anakin that he catches on quick.

once again, rey is inherently a mary sue, the other characters have their moments but at the very least, they are given clear explanation and not just implication.


 No.11881

>>11880

oh, i forgot, anakin also is seen clearly fucking around with the controls trying to figure out what does what. rey just straight up starts the falcon.


 No.11901

When it was sold to Disneyowned by jews given to jj Abrams to direct who is a jew and considering half of the actors and staff also jewish either couldn't act or were simply there for nostalgia


 No.11902

>>11880

The only way Anakin would be a gary stu is if all of his whining lead to other characters cave to his demands aside from his romance with Padme. It doesn't, and its portrayed as a bad thing when he starts murdering the people who blew off his bitchfits.


 No.11903

>>11902

yes, this is my point. rey is a mary sue because she literally has no flaws. luke and anakin are full of faults.


 No.11923

>>11903

It's strange how people are willing to accuse Anakin and Luke of being stus but go apeshit if you even try to explain how Rey would be a sue.


 No.12118

Rey's angry duckface when she was chasing Finn.


 No.12124

The only Star Wars film that I legitmately hate is Episode II.
