Either C-3PO got his arm replaced, like he said he needed to have done, or it was a goof. Maybe there will be a director's cut with a full subplot about Threepio's arm.

View Quote Same, it looks pretty good. |

Well, finally saw it.
Pros: 1. Chewy's crossbow stomach shot at kylo on bridge after Solo fell off, f'd him up 2. Frozen laser blast by kylo's force 3. BB8 was cool, moved faster than r2 and c3 4. Daisy Ridley (rey) did a good job 5. Fin character did well also, tried to be a jedi Cons: 1. Solo was worn out, not the cocky sob that he was 2. Leia with her non moving upper lip, voice 3. Kylo not even close to the evil of vader, and they got too fancy with his light saber 4. Deathstar planet, really 5. Needed more general ackbar 6. Where was Lando, was hoping for a surprise appearence during assault of death planet |

Quoted: 3. Kylo not even close to the evil of vader View Quote That's kind of the point of his character....he's still young, conflicted, he hasn't become vader yet but he wants to. I thought it was the first interesting villain in the SW universe since Vader, it was nice to see a villain that isn't sure he has it in him. Made his turn more emotional, more tragic. |

I agree.............Kylo isn't yet completely evil, but Snoke said it was time to complete his training..............I'd be willing to bet he will give Vader a run for his money before all is said and done. I liked how they made him incomplete and insecure, and the finished product should be really worthy of The Sith

Lol, the Falcon's flight profile was unrealistic. I have heard it all. LoL I know it's a movie, but you watch The Force Awakens, and then you watch the original trilogy, you'll understand. To put it in simple terms, in The Force Awakens it looks like a kid holding the ships going "pew pew" while playing in his bath tub. Watch the trilogy, and you'll see they move more like aircraft. The whole point is that they seem natural in flight. You don't want to be watching a dogfight scene and be distracted by weirdness. TFA has shit CGI and there's no way around it. why would space ships move like aircraft that need lift under their wings? They don't, but you're missing my point. The fact they move strangely is distracting to our eye, and we focus on stuff like that. They would in an atmosphere. Even if they didnt, due to some type of gravity manipulation drive; they would still be subject to atmospheric friction. So they should still be showing lifting and dragging forces on the air(space)frame. The Xwings didnt show this and it looked like distracting garbage. That was one of my biggest issues with the movie. |

Nothing about it is real and there is no reason to expect that the space ships flying on a planet would act like real aircraft. Sometimes, you just need to let go and be a kid. Seriously, there's an entire planet that's basically a flying gun that can destroy entire solar systems. Just. Let. Go. |

My wife went out and bought the movie for me so that when I got home from work I could watch it.
Why the heck can they never put the deleted scenes back into the movie when it goes to DVD release? |

playing the movie on my ps4, freezes at 26 minutes in, then skips ahead a chapter. same spot every time, no scratch on the disk
so chatting with amazon now. |

awful script, awful acting, just awful... and princess general leia and han solo...
I got so tired of seeing the duck face and scenes that just made no sense... it made the first three movies look like "citizen kane" by comparison... I swear it must be some form of mass hypnosis here that so many people think it was great... you must all be looking forward to part II with that smug bastard luke... |

Oh yeah, and Boba Fett is fucking awesome. Y'all are just jealous at how awesome Mandalorians are. |

Please don't tell me she somehow survives just to give more context to the fans saying "wtf is this?" |
