SPOILER THREAD: SW: The Force Awakens

[Gofigure]

Just got back from second viewing. This time with my 7 year who told me "Dad I didn't like it.........I loved it!" (Almost broke dads heart)

Musings from a 7 year old

'So funny when BB-8 shocked Finn on the bum, twice!'
'Kylo Ren tricked Han into thinking he was good then killed him, that was a bit sad'
'Chewie was a good shot when he shot kylo ren'
'There on a search for Luke skywalker, it's important that they find Luke skywalker....'

Noticed at the end Luke is standing next to a grave? Monument? Didn't notice first time. Hmmmmmmm.......

Oh and in Rey's flashback/flash-forward you hear both yoda and obiwan...

Yes. And there are three voices in that vision:
Frank Oz (Yoda)
Ewan MacGregor (Obi-Wan Kenobi)
Sir Alec Guinness (Obi-Wan Kenobi)

Oz and MacGregor both came into the studio to do voice acting. As for Sir Guinness, sound engineers from Bad Robot did some impressive audio splicing to create lines for Obi-Wan to say, "Rey, these are your first steps." This was achieved by cutting and pasting bits of audio from Guinness' lines. I'm not sure which exact lines where used for audio harvesting, but here's a few guesses...
* "These aren't the droids you're looking for."
* "That's good. You have taken your first step into a larger world."
Then it would be easy to find any word that Guinness said with a /s/ sound on the end (e.g. "Force" etc.) and attach that to the end of "step" to pluralise it.
The rather clever thing is how they got Guinness to say Rey's name, which was basically accomplished like this:
"Hello there! Come here, my little friend. Don't be afraid." (Source)

I literally heard that in my dream last night, it was the last thing I read before I fell asleep.

Can anyone tell me who the old guy at the start if the film was? the one that got killed in the village

Lor San Tekka, who is a new character, but the film definitely does make it feel like he's been in the story for much longer.

Im a bit disappointed that he didn't get an action figure
