btw can I have someone clarify exactly how her name is spelt? Is there any official source for how it's spelt? Is it Ray? Rey? Rei? Rae? like, this is the biggest question I've got.

Addressing the common critiques:


-They went through a lot of trouble showing the audience how powerful Chewie's bowcaster was. And Chewie landed a direct hit on Kylo Ren, so of course he's going to be fighting at partial capacity. He took out Finn pretty easily. It's not like Stormtrooper training is woefully insufficient, either -- remember that Stormtrooper who whipped out some electric thing earlier in the movie?

-As for Rey, her Force-sensitivity is likely because she's (probably) Luke's daughter.

-Why was she able to take on Kylo Ren? Well, again: He was critically wounded. And furthermore, he wasn't really trying to kill her in the first place ("You need a teacher!").

-Anakin/Luke's blue lightsaber: It was blue in the prequels. Obi-wan took it and later handed it down to Luke in Episode IV. Luke then lost that lightsaber in Episode V when Vader sliced his hand off at Cloud City. Luke did get a new green lightsaber in Episode VI, but this is not the same one we see in Episode VII. In other words, someone managed to retrieve Anakin/Luke's blue lightsaber from Cloud City.

Anyways it's good that there are some unanswered albeit insignificant details, the next movies will tell more. Who is Snoke for instance???
The most popular theory is that Snoke is Darth Plagueis (Darth Sidious/Emperor Palpatine's master) but I'm sure you've heard that theory already. I just can't wait to find out for sure. Episode 8 is going to be amazing.

tbh didn't like this all that much
way better than episode I, but the
death star literal carbon copy ripoff sucked and the movie itself was pretty slow
han solo dying was an okay thing I think, it served to shed kylo in a really dark light
pretty blatantly obvious that ray is luke's daughter; at the very least, she's related somehow
kylo's temper tantrums were cute
also, HITLER


it was an average watch
the orange droid is super cute though

8 should be way better

unless, of course, ray ends up getting the disney princess treatment, which was also pretty obvious already

If ships flying at light speed can go through shields then why don't they make light speed bombs?
