I have to respect him for that. I hate spoilers and was going to avoid the latest trailer, but he's not revealed anything significant.
So everyone will just Have To go into the movie being completely surprised which is Awesome.

The character doesn't appeal to me. Goofy facial expressions, the way he moves and just a bad feeling about his acting abilities.
It's not about the skin color. I loved Williams as Lando and Jackson as Windu. Of course I'll still watch Ep 7, but...

I can see where you are coming from, but you gotta consider where Finn starts. He is a Stomtrooper and has been raised and brainwashed all his life. He isn’t a hero, he isn’t even an everyman, he is treated less than human but rather as faceless nameless grunt. His “name” is literally a number. Then he realizes everything he believes is a lie and he defects. And suddenly he is thrown into a world of legends and magic and finds himself facing Kylo Ren in a sword duel the terrifying enforcer of his . It’s one hell of an arc.
As for his acting, Boyega was great in Attack the Block. Even if I could hardly understand him as times.

I wasn't thinking it was anything racial. Just didn't understand the want for his death considering we've seen so little.
Honestly, I've found out relatively not long ago that he's the main star of this new trilogy. Not what I was hoping for. The character doesn't look either badass or smart. Of course, you could say pretty much the same thing about ANH Luke and we all know how much he has evolved.
Maybe I'm wrong, maybe Boyega will deliver a fantastic performance that will make me shut up. Would be great.

Yeah, you make sense. Haven't seen Attack the Block.
Originally posted by Darth ThorFor me that's what I prefer. I don't like movies where the hero easily destroys the villain. You want Luke to be the most powerful guy ever and won't accept anything else which to me suggests you want him to be another level. That's silly but then again you like the space battles more than the light saber battles so you're an oddball.
And you've just contradicted yourself with "all the possible options" by saying how it should happen. But no surprises there, given it's you.There's plenty of ways for Luke to be the most powerful but the good guys still struggle. Heck Sidious didn't fight in Episode 2. So Yoda was the most powerful guy we saw in action, and the villain in that film simply ran from him. Sidious also tried to run from Yoda in Ep.3. Heck You Yourself claim Windu > ALL in Episode 3, and that Episode 3 is the best SW movie. Windu wasn't the villain in that movie dummy!
Luke's hardly going to be in this movie. And even if they fight, and even if they want to make it a challenge for Luke, there's a million ways to do that without making Snoke =/> Luke:
They could fight on a Dark Side Nexus. They could fight on Snoke's personal Nexus. It could be Snoke backed by the Knights of Ren attacking luke together (Ooohh that would be bad ass).
So there's absolutely no need or reason to make Snoke more Powerful than Luke. None at all. And IF they did (for some strange reason), you can be sure they'll have to be a damn good explanation to explain this anomaly. E.g. Snoke has drained the Power of other Force users, or Snoke is an Immortal being e.t.c.
Sidious was more powerful but he can be beaten. He lost to the less powerful Windu and beat the more powerful Yoda. More powerful doesn't mean unbeatable. So you're saying they shouldn't but used to say they won't. You're all over the map. You're not Star Wars and are just some dumb fan. Face reality. Abrams will take care of this franchise, unbeliever.
Originally posted by RobtardI don't even know if I'll love Snoke but I do know Kylo and Snoke are the characters I will gravitate towards if any.
Someone's going to have a meltdown if/when Snoke doesn't turn out to be the "can kick everyone's ass in fight" cookie-cutter bad guy, me thinks.
Luke, Han, Finn, Phasma, etc. aren't appealing to me.

yes all true star wars fans hate luke and vader and the entire classic trilogy. 👆

being powerful in the dark side is all about channeling anger and passion...or being an "emotional mess" as you would call it. so you're not making any sense.
Originally posted by Bashar TegChanneling your anger is one thing but jumping ship because you're emotionally worked up is another. The loser jumped ship too many times. Sidious was the dark side and never faltered. That's being committed. Vader was always just waiting for that strong gust of emotional wind to push him back over to the other side.

that is by far the most bizarre critique i've ever read concerning a star wars character. and i've read some weird shit here.
