Star Wars: The Force Awakens

Same could be asked to Thor, why does it bother him so much that he's in the vocal minority that don't like the film? I'm merely debunking false information. So in the course of an argument we both got heated. You? You're not even worth responding to...so not sure why I am.

Because Thor isn't indiscriminately attacking people for differing opinions. He's attacking you while you're attacking him.

You're even being hostile with ME, and I haven't said anything remotely rude to you lol.

Yeah, I never got that. Kylo Ren was trained by Luke and and Snoke, so how come he was wounded by Finn when they fought with Lightsabers?

Oh right, by Chewy.

He was hurt prior to that. Did you not see the film ?

Spoiler:
Rey on the other hand becoming so good with the force that she can beat someone trained by Luke and partially trained by Snoke is something of a problem since the movie gives us nothing to work with as to why she's able to do that.

That...actually makes sense at least for Finn's case though I'd argue Finn being able to do anything to Kylo Ren is still odd.

Spoiler:
Kylo suffered too wounds by that time. She connected with the force. He's hurt. We also might find out in a later film she had repressed training.

Kind of excited for the next time Kylo Ren and Chewie meet

Went to see this earlier this morning and i'm saddened by how disappointing it was. I'm going to let everything that i saw process in my mind a little more before before i really start commenting. I also have to see it again later with a friend. I'm hoping i enjoy it better upon a second viewing but i doubt it. My initial reaction was very negative and it only gets worse the more i think about it. I actually contemplated walking out at one point to go have a smoke but i knew if i did i would probably have spent the rest of the movie playing games in the arcade.

Spoiler:
injuries obviously played a factor here along with him trying to persuade her to let him train her.

No, it was just terrible writing.

.

Kylo: hark! i have been wounded by the wookie and thus cannot fight using my full abilities!

Ren: HA! while you have been wounded, i am just beginning to realize my own abilities!

Kylo: IMPOSSIBLE! that would mean that since my powers have diminished and yours have grown, we are evenly matched!

Ren: That would explain why i am currently driving you back in this duel.

Kylo: of course, for if i was not wounded, this turn of events would make no sense at all!

Ren: indeed!

/great writing

Casual cynicism at its finest. 👆

You're still missing the point.

Spoiler:

A) There is nothing wrong with what Rey did in the film. She is more powerful than Luke was. Who cares?
B) In your opinion there was no tension. That's not the same for everyone.
C) And the main thing you're not grasping.....It's A Trilogy. Not everything needs to be explained in one movie. There are questions that will be answered in future films. If you can't wait for said answers I don't know what to yell you.

Spoiler:

A) Being stronger than Luke is fine. She's also more impressive than Han, Leia, and even Ben(hey, Rey won her fight).
B) Clearly not. A number of people seem to feel the same way.
C) Films need to be able to stand on their own. If the sequels adequately explain why Rey is so strong with the Force, and I'm sure they will, then it becomes less of an annoyance(but still an annoyance).

Edit: Also, to balance things out, here are the best things about the movie(imo)
-It is super pretty. By far the best looking Star Wars film(as of right now-the OT was still the best looking movies of their era).
-The acting across the board is great.
-BB8 is the most adorable thing ever.
-The film is actively trying to have more heart, even if the body around it seems artificial
-Actually liked the lightsabre fight.
-The first Falcon scene was the second best space sequence in the series(number 1 is the Death Star Run in ANH)

Why is there another chosen one story... We have literally already done this 6 times.

Didn't enjoy but if anyone else was, I won't take it away from them.
