well, i know there's a Dark Forces weapons mod or two floating around, so it's mostly just a matter of slapping the two of them together, i guess.

That movie was filmed 10 minutes from my house.. I've been there many times, it's a huge movie studio where films like Alien were made. I already had the [Redacted] thing spoiled to me and I haven't even seen the film

Cool, good for you. Doesn't give you a right to spoil it for others in a no spoiler thread for those who haven't seen it.

Ok? all I said was the character's name and didn't give anything away.

Some people don't want to hear anything about spoilers, even the very slightest hint about them. So please just be careful.

People who have seen the film and want to talk about it should start a spoilers thread.

As long as (labeled) spoiler tags are used, I wouldn't mind.

I thought the movie was pretty okay but found Rey somewhat bland as a protagonist. Not helped by her easy adaptability to <SPOILERS> and learning how to <SPOILERS> with relative ease and speed. It bugs me because Luke's character development was spread out over THREE MOVIES and Rey has much less explanation for her sudden skill.

It could have been a lot worse and maybe it will get better but predictably it's turning into a gender representation debate on social media and I already want to go back to the '90s when people had less ways to strut themselves like peacocks against each other over a stupid movie.

As for the rest of the movie, it played it maybe a little too safe (the whole movie felt like an apology to original trilogy diehards/reassurance that this was only drawing from the original trilogies) but it had its moments and its own warmth, and it had some really funny moments.

That much said, while I enjoyed it, I didn't feel like it was anything ultra special either, and that people are going to put it on a pedestal just because it's not the prequels.

Meh.

Regarding Rey and her obvious "independence" and "strength"; yup, saw right through it... looks forced to be honest... welcome to 2015 I guess! They had to do it otherwise the movie would get attacked on social media.

It feels like I traded one enemy for another with the last U.S. election.

That much said, Finn is the stormiest trooper and my homeboy. :P

Is it me or do the stormies seem grossly incopentent ie:taking on x-wings with their rifles, not looking for cover when being strafed, not providing covering fire when attacking a nearly defenseless town, In the original trilogy they where copetent, heck there acurracy was similar to real human beings, and you saw stormtroopers running away to find more troopers, taking cover when shot at. Exept for the ewoks. the f@cking ewoks.

I went and saw the new Star wars movie in IMAX and it looked pretty awesome. Its was great at beginning but after that it was ok for the rest of the movie after all i liked it.
But from the scale of 1 to 10? I'll give it an 8.

Spoiler sorry
There well be a Star Wars part VIII.

Plus I have a great question to ask you guys?
Who's side are you on? Light side or Dark side?
