Wow, this is a surprising turn of events in fandom. I just happen to read an article on the Hollywood Reporter that Apple News had popped an alert for. It spoke about the backlash from fans and asked what is it they want. It was especially aimed at Rose and Finn. Back before the prequels, the...
I can’t keep up with your discussion here, you’re going fast and furious. :) But I saw this this morning on Good Morning America and I did not see mention of it here, or I missed it. Hamill apologizes for publically criticizing the film...
Wow, you guys are really going at it! I can’t keep up with this thread.
Regarding the hyperspace jump, based on Han’s comments to Luke in ANH, perhaps what Admiral Holdo did was engage warp speed and then jumped back into normal space right inside the dreadnaught?
Interestingly, a coworker whose a really big fan, tells his kids that they will never experience a moment like when he first saw A New Hope in 1977 and was blown away by it then. He also called Luke’s move a badass move. For some reason, Luke’s final act and ending wasn’t that moving for me. I’m...
You’re comparing Into Darkness with TLJ Josh? Comparing the similar backlash from the core fans? Interesting connection and there is some truth there. I still don’t like Into Darkness and I didn’t find that much stuff to like, but there were a few bits of interest.
I know a long time Star Trek...

Matt, I like your synopsis from the second viewing regarding how much...
I did a little internet search and it has told me that the First Order came out of the ruins of the Empire. That the leaders of the Empire hid in the Outer Rim and over thirty years, built up a new empire to rule the galaxy again. JJ's idea came from the Odessa file.
I was alive in 1977 and saw Star Wars. Though my allegnce is to Star Trek, I am a fan of Star Wars too. :)
Back to the arguments you guys are having about Snoke. One thing that had troubled me a little in The Force Awakens is who is this First Order group? I knew the Empire was defeated at the...
I saw it last night at a 10:45pm show in 3D. I chose that time and 3D because there were some better seats, not the best seats, but ok.
I think you guys covered everything I thought very well. As the end credits rolled, I said to my friend, I’m not sure I liked it. So here’s a few random...
