    Yeah I dug it. Being an older fan I get the whole poetry thing happening with this and it didn't bother me one bit. Great flick

    Lots of laughs along the way....really having a good time......then something bad bad bad bad happens. Nausea followed by increased tearfulness followed by shakiness and then denial

    Holy crap. I felt bad all day today 😢

    I'm processing all of it

    Enjoyed it thoroughly and saw ALL the ANH story copies and then some of the ROTJ story copies BUT

    Solo dead at the hands of his son is excellent and Kylo Ren not being a fully fledged Dark Side user with uber strength in the force and weaknesses that Rey and Finn exploited I liked a lot.

    Definitely more interesting than the prequels.

    Definitely enjoyed it. Woke up the next morning struggling to believe Hans fate. I had a bad feeling about that. Basically everything I thought about the movie has already been said.

    I've been having with people, threatening spoilers then telling them that Kylo Ren is Jar Jar Bink's son

    Man!!!! what an adventure... I enjoyed every minute of it.

    Anyone else think Rey is Skywalkers daughter?

    My favourite parts were Kylo Ren's tantrums. Fantastic show of anger and frustration.

    Interesting he never took it out on anyone else in the First Order, just computer consoles and chairs. Like you know Vadar would have straight up force choked the closest person without hesitating.

    If she isn't then she is at least a Han and Leia's kid. She had a connection to Skywalkers old lightsaber, so there is a blood connection there somewhere.

    My money is on Luke's kid though, because I think she was left on Jakku before Luke went missing.

    Hence my dislike
    I agree. It also doesn't make sense for Leia and Han to name their kid Ben. If they did it wasn't in honour of Kenobi. They didn't have much to do with him, well Leia didn't anyway. Han a bit, but not enough to name your kid after the guy.

    +1 on this
    It very much reminded me of The Lego Movie's Bad cop throwing chairs around in a most hilarious way.

    The Stormtroopers walking around the corner deciding to not venture towards him was lovely comedy.

    I think this too, which would make her and Kylo Ren cousins.

    I was also expecting Luke to use the force to take the lightsaber at the very end of the film.

    I'd be surprised if Rey isn't Luke's daughter, given this is a Star Wars film that draws heavily on the first 3 films family ties are par for the course. That would however open up a more interesting mystery of who her mother is though? Given the lack of women in the first films they'll have to create a new non young character. All I can say is it better not be those Midichlorans again!

    Also does anyone know who the old ally that Poe Dameron went to see at the beginning of the film was? Were we supposed to know him? Is he like a Rebellion General or something?

    I had a though that if he isn't someone we know then maybe he's a character who's younger version will be introduced in one of the yet unreleased spin off films.

    Cool, so I'm not alone in entertaining that is within the realms of a viable possibility, she certainly does have all the attributes of Anakin (fixer, natural pilot and fighter, with an uncanny ability to effortlessly harness the power of the force). We may be in for another "virgence" in the force here, or rather Anakin Skywalker reincarnate (which also could explain the link to Anakins light sabre) I can't help but shake off a certain dialogue in one of the TV spots "I have lived long enough to see the same eyes in different faces, I see your eyes, I know your eyes!"

    Interesting though how some dialogue and scenes in the trailers were absent from the movie

    My wife asked me why I carry a gun?, I said "Decepticons"... She laughed, I laughed, the toaster laughed, I shot the toaster. It was a good day.
