Ummm, not sure if you're in the right board to have a thread about the film and if you ask me I'd put a spoilers tag in the title of your thread.
But if you're asking someone in general, I'd have to say it was pretty good and that's just it for now.

I'm not sure how I feel about going from the commanding presence of Vader to the sniveling emo kid

isnt there a movie thread? why make a thread in the real life section?

It was planned to be chronicles of young Leia,Luke and Han with Retro Style,but J.J. Abrams and Disney changed everything and George Lucas doesn't satisfied of this fact.

Who cares if George Lucas wasn't satisfied? He was running the whole franchise into the ground, and sold it off anyway. His opinion doesn't even matter anymore.

His budget from 70's for science-fiction films was very low so he began Star Wars with Sequels IV,V and VI.

In addition, I'm not sure where he's getting his information but as far as I know, he's way off base about the plan for that movie. Star Wars was always intended to be an epic - a story that begins in the middle, returns to the beginning, and completes at the end. Episode VII, based on that definition, could never have been about younger characters.
Also, why is this in the real life section? I'm not against The Force Awakens having its own thread but I don't get why it's here. I'll be moving it to General in a moment.

If I were to guess, it's probably because a movie technically *could* classify as an irl thing, in the sense that most people go see them somewhere irl. That's my guess, anyways.
I'm going to be honest, it feels to me that the line between 'general' and 'irl' isn't exactly clear around here.

Why and where C-3PO lose his arm?
12-31-2015, 08:39 PM
Apparently that was explained in a comic... or a book... I'm not sure, there's a whole new Extended Universe timeline to pick up on now.
(Honestly wouldn't be surprised if someone got pissed off and just blasted it off.)

Not to be that guy, but this is a movie we're talking about instead of Real Life events, just saying.
But while we're on the subject of star wars:
So am I the only one guessing that Kylo Ren is going to get a shit ton of character development on his path to becoming a sith lord?
The only thing that really was established was that he was some emo kid of Han and Leia and Snooke ended up turning him to the dark side, and he kills Han just because he worships vader like some sort of sheep. And yet I have the sense that he's going to become pretty bad ass by the ninth movie.
That and all things considered with Rey, she could very well be a skywalker too given that she's a force child.

George Lucas said "It's lack of creativity" about Force Awakens.

He also said selling Star Wars to Disney was akin to selling his children to the white slavers.
I understand he's annoyed that they shot the prequels out of the water, but nothing deserves a comment like that.

And I'm getting annoyed with people saying that this was just a rehash of A New Hope. Like, seriously, are you guys blind? Yes, there was a desert planet, a cantina, the death of a mentor figure, blowing up a planet buster. But also there were fights on a forested world (someone please get the stormtroopers some cameo armor) and an icy wasteland. There was seeking out and finding a new mentor and teacher. There were all kinds of references to both Empire and Jedi peppered through the movie that I can't believe I haven't seen anyone mention them yet.
This movie was a love letter to the original trilogy. What happens next? That'll be new.

Let's forget about Jar Jar Binks(J.J. Abrams on Twitter said Jar Jar Binks will kill Bobba Fett with using Boombs-boombs) and Bobba Fett.I'd like to see Lando Carlissian in Episode VIII and Luke Skywalker speech.I wonder why Luke's prothesis hand looks so realistic and why C-3PO has one different hand?
