Twistedshabazz Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 This was such a fun adventure movie. 1-3 were such a chore compared to this. Had the perfect amount of nods to old stuff to make you happy. You actually laugh unlike the prequels. You can tell alot of this stuff was actually filmed on real sets using real people and not just a george lucas cgi bonanza. I know its been said jj really made that a focal point but its obvious attention to detail was big for him. I had the same experience with cheering. Even the little things you could see people nudging and pointing at the people next to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyregret Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 just got back. movie was solid. safe, but solid. Agreed. I wanted to love this movie, but instead I really liked it. The new cast are great, and welcomed fresh additions to the Star Wars universe. The movie feels like the old Star Wars, the world's and technology felt real...rather than the super polished look of the prequels. It erases much of the stench that the prequels left, and felt like the natural progression from ROTJ. It has its issues, and it definitely plays it safe. But the foundation has been laid for the next two films to build on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistedshabazz Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I dont think playing it safe on certain things is a bad thing for this. 1-3 really shit on things so abrhams coming in and showing look i can make something good and not fuck it up is a nice base and allows him to improve and grow for the next two. stl_ben and Breezus 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa Bateman Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Sometimes I wish there weren't as many funny moments as there is. I get why they do, they're good when they come out but I'd like to see justba straight up dark star wars movie.maybe I'm the only one. Maybe not dark but a serious serious one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistedshabazz Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I worry changing directors could screw with things. I like rian johnson but since jj did a good job id like to see him keep running with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got me out of the mood one too many times. They were good just unnecessary and poorly timed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santa Bateman Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Also will admit it's better the 2nd time around viewing it. Almost done watching it again and I enjoyed it more than last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deafening Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I enjoyed it a lot. I agree it was "safe but solid." Debating on seeing it again tonight in 2D because fuck 3D, so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Last night we watched in 3D. My buddy who got the tix didn't realize it was the 3D showing when he got the tix two weeks ago. We debated on bailing b/c I can't do 3D movies all that well...not only do I wear glasses normally but after watching a 3D movie I will surely get a raging migraine. We chanced it anyways and as silly as I felt wearing the 3D glasses on top of my normal ones, I saw a regular 2D movie...didn't get any 3D effect. And got lucky and no migraine afterwards. I was planning to see the movie again anyways so I'll make sure to watch regular ol' 2D. Ha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breezus Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Of course he's a whiny brat, every trilogy needs their whiny brat lol. But yeah, I also can't wait to see it again in the next couple of weeks. Also, I need that Kylo Ren Funko. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Saw it today. I'd rank it about equal with RotJ. Pretty good, but definitely not the best movie. I did almost cry at one point. You know which one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
