Re: The Force Awakens discussion - POST RELEASE
Have seen it twice now, and am heading out for a third screening at 10am
I am loving many, many aspects of the new film. A little surprised that they followed through with that major death though. At first, I went in to it with so many emotions unconsciously primed, and the whole thing felt like it was over in an hour. The second time through, I had a little more breathing space to appreciate why many decisions about plot points were made as they were. I did ask myself, can I really love this with Han dying, and Luke barely being in it, but upon reflection, I think the answer is still "yes". I only wish it was't so long to wait to see where they go with the stories for Luke, Rey, and poor unconscious FInn!

Fantastic picture, going to see it for the 3rd time this morning. Still processing details (and 4 hours sleep).
Biggest disappointment: No one lost a hand; but we did lose a Han
Too soon?

Re: The Force Awakens discussion - POST RELEASE
LOVED:
-BB8's thumbs up
-Poe Dameron was funny & cool
-Kylo asking for his dad's "help"
-Daisy R.'s acting was so "real." Loved her expressive eyes.
-the humour
-trash compactor reference
-Han and Chewie running onto the Falcon
NEED TO THINK ABOUT:
-very limited Captain Phasma
-did I blink and miss Zuvio??
-the guy with the heavy Scottish accent
-never addressed the issue of Poe killing Finn's friend
-did I miss Hassk thug too??
-space octopus
IN GENERAL:
9/10 at the moment... I need to see it again, of course.

I think Harrison Ford got his wish, he said in interviews way back in ESB that Han should have died, now he has.Eng76 wrote:Fantastic picture, going to see it for the 3rd time this morning. Still processing details (and 4 hours sleep).

Undignified for Captain Phasma, thrown in the garbage shute
Doomsday and Armageddon got together and had a baby and man is it ugly.
