Torching all the build up on the mystery of Snoke and who Rey's parents were is not good writing. I mean I guess it's bold, but it's awful. I thought Mark Hamil was just being a cranky old guy when he went around before the movie came out saying how they screwed up Luke's character and Luke would never act the way he does in the movie, but he was dead on. Why is this spoilered? It just makes it more of a pain in the ass for me to reply to. The movie has been out for 9 months, which is plenty of time for people to have seen it. But not enough time for people to move on from bitching about it, apparently. That build up mostly is by the fans. Snoke isn't nearly as important or interesting as a bunch of guys with endless fan theories think. What was he going to do that was so interesting? All I ever heard about was what's his back story, when we never got one for the Emperor in Jedi and no one cared then. He was just the big evil guy. I told you that Rey Random was set up by the conversation with Maz and the fact that she's never been off Jakku, with her comment of seeing all the green on Maz's planet. And how about making sense for the plot? For Rey to be related to anyone special, it means she was either mind-wiped, or dropped off on the planet as a baby, for reasons, and those parents are terrible since they left her on such a shit hole in the care of Unkar Plutt and never went back for her. So whatever past character(s) are her parents would be "ruined" that way, too, according to you. Mark Hamill changed his mind after the movie came out. Snoke looks pretty old, where was he for the last 50 years? Just keeping to himself with massive force powers? Guess he decided to bide his time on this one eh? I guess. And I'd wager he's been around way longer than that. I mean, JJ didn't explain it, either, but there's still one movie left. Luke has a vision so tries to murder his nephew while he's sleeping? Uhhh right. The same guy that wouldn't kill mass murderer Vader? Luke dies because he used too much energy for a force projection? Stupid. He tried to kill Vader but stopped. It's the same thing here. And Luke didn't even get that far this time. He just thought about it and took out his lightsaber. Luke shut himself off from the Force. The ability he used was obviously taxing. I'd say that and the fact he hadn't used Force powers in forever is what did him in. Rusty and over-exerted himself. People don't have infinite energy, you know. Leia suddenly can use the force and not die in space? Stupid. Leia could always use the Force. She saved herself instinctually. Not sure how that's any different than Luke grabbing the lightsaber in the wampa cave or any other self-preservation instinctual uses of the Force we've seen. Rey is a Mary Sue. She's been using the force for under a week and already defeated Kylo and Luke in combat. Even young Darth Vader couldn't do any of the stuff she does. Rey is open-minded and trusts in the Force. Luke was the opposite. He couldn't lift the X-wing because he didn't believe he could. So, being a Jedi is not like a videogame. You don't unlock new powers by level-grinding and increasing your Force Mana stats. It's about state of mind and belief in the Force. Kylo was injured by a weapon that throws other people across the ground, and was emotionally shaken from killing Han. He wasn't trying to kill Rey, either, but capture her. And Rey was pushed back the entire fight until she gave herself over to the Force. Bested Luke in combat? Lmao you think that was besting Luke? That wasn't a serious fight. Luke could have beaten her if he wanted to. Not sure what you are on about saying Vader couldn't do stuff like this. Kylo got beaten in the first movie by someone who turned on a light saber once. No credibility as a villain now. Well he killed Snoke, and as I explained earlier, a more focused, uninjured Kylo is something to worry about. Now he can be the tryant and do whatever he wants, and given how unstable he is, it makes him dangerous. Daisey Ridley can't act. You're a poor judge of acting skills. Daisey Ridley can't act because you don't like Rey? Ok. Rose makes Jar Jar look wonderful by comparison. Finn tries to sacrifice himself to save the rebels, but Rose knocks him out of the way.... which would probably have killed the entire rebellion and doomed the galaxy. But it's ok because she likes him or something. Finn's rickety-ass speeder was melting just from the targeting beam. It was obvious he wasn't going to do any damage to the weapon. Finn was supposed to have some sort of beef with captain Phasma but she dies after a 30 second fight. That was supposed to be his main nemesis by the way, the lady that got 1 minute of screen time. No disagreements that Phasma was poorly handled... in both movies. She's basically the Boba Fett of the sequel trilogy. Too much else going on in the movies for her to get more time though. And she was added as an afterthought, because that cool design was originally for Kylo's armor, but they didn't want to waste it. So uh, where's the rest of the New Republic? Their fleets? Their thousands of planets? Why is the First Order so strong again? Apparently most of it was lost at the Hosnian system. They said that in TFA. Maybe the others are running scared. They did just see a whole solar system get destroyed. The First Order has been able to amass their forces for decades unmolested in the Unknown Regions because the Republic didn't consider them a threat. That was why Leia had to form the Resistance in the first place. Leia Han and Luke accomplished literally nothing in the last 40 years. Han returns to being a smuggler and Luke basically turns Kylo evil by trying to murder him in his sleep, then spends the next 30 years sulking alone on a rock. They accomplish nothing, the galaxy is a terrible place, and then they die for dubious reasons. If Lando comes back in the next one they'll just have him die in some stupid way.... oh and I hear he's pansexual now? Luke had a Jedi Order going until Kylo ruined it. Leia was doing good as a politician and general. Han went back to old habits after Kylo left. Umm it wasn't 30 years. Did you see how old Kylo was in the flashback? He's still played by Adam Driver, so he was still an adult or at least late teens there. Well that was the whole thing... Kylo turning ruined everyone's lives. And like I said, the trilogy shows what happens when the good guys are in charge, and it showed that things don't always go perfectly. The pansexual thing is a nothing burger. Going by Star Wars standards, it just means you're attracted to someone outside your species, which means most everyone in Star Wars is pansexual. All it means is Lando will fuck a droid or anything else that turns him on. Luke doesn't want to help and didn't want anyone to find him.... but left a map so people could find him. He... didn't leave a map. That old guy had part of a map and gives it to Poe. Kylo says they got the other part from the Imperial archives. R2 accesses the entire Imperial network on the Death Star which is how he got that same part of the map as the First Order. He was in sleep mode all those years looking for it. They put the map together and HOPED that's where Luke went. So no, he didn't leave a map. And if he did, why would he split it apart like that? And the big fail that ruins the entire concept of Star Wars... the hyperdrive suicide attack. Hyperdrive doesn't work like that. Because of that stupidity, there would be no reason to ever build a big ship. Or a Death Star. Because you could just kill them with a smaller ship by pointing it at it and sending it into hyperdrive. So the entire concept of space fighting in Star Wars is just ruined. Any time you see a big ship you'll just be thinking..... well why don't they just one shot it like that one lady did that time? But it does? In Star Wars, Han says if you fly near any object your ship will get destroyed. So yeah, hyperspace is used as a cheat to get around going faster than light, but you are still affected by real objects in the normal universe. Either way, it appeared to me that the ship was accelerating to light speed but hadn't made it to hyperspace then they collided. Waste of resources factions like the Rebellion and Resistance don't have, nor would they just plain resort to kamikaze for the lulz. No indication they would do that as a culture, as Top_Gun said. And the destructive level isn't nearly as high as it would be if Star Wars used real science. Going by what we saw, the Death Star would be fine, and most other large ships. By the way, Anakin messed with the controls of a Separatist starship in Clone Wars and made it hyperspace into a moon, so no, this isn't new. Basically it wasn't just a bad movie like say... The Phantom Menace. This was a franchise killer. It's a franchise killer when half the shit you're complaining about is from TFA? And it grossed 1.3 billion? Top selling blu-ray and DVD of 2018? Think it's safe to say you're in the minority here and the franchise is just fine. Also, people were very upset with the prequels. They spent their whole lives imagining what those movies could be, and when they didn't live up to their ridiculously built up expectations and the movies they wrote in their heads, they flipped the fuck out. It's the same case here. IT DIDN'T GO THE WAY THAT YOU THOUGHT. And don't you think it's worse to have "ruined" Anakin's back story than whatever comes afterward? It's easier to ignore the sequels than it is the prequels, especially since those were 100% George Lucas's vision, and these are made by other people. Now, Phantom Menace and Clones are definitely the worst Star Wars movies, but I can't bring myself to hate them. They still have redeeming qualities. Revenge of the Sith I think is a peer with the original trilogy, though. Still, it can be argued that Lucas "ruined" some things, like Anakin's relationship with Uncle Owen, and his back story. It's pretty obvious going by the old movies that Anakin grew up on Tattooine with Owen and was possibly even his blood relation brother, not some step-brother he met like once for a few days. As Obi-wan describes it, Anakin goes off to fight in the Clone Wars, which Owen felt he shouldn't have gotten involved. When Obi-wan describes first meeting Anakin who was already a great pilot, I sure as heck wasn't thinking he met him as a kid who was doing pod racing. There's tons of other stuff like that. And if you've looked into anything involving Lucas's sequel plans, and what he's said, that TFA is a movie fans would like, that people would probably hate his sequels... these were never going to be the movies you imagined. And you were ok with all of that and LOVED it? That's why I had a little trouble believing my eyes on that one. If you weren't familiar with Star Wars at all and saw it I can see why people might like it, it's a beautiful looking movie. But you're familiar with Star Wars yeah? And you still liked it? That's just baffling to me. I've been a Star Wars fan all my life. I wasn't old enough to see it when it first came out, but I have no memory of never not knowing Star Wars, seeing the original trilogy for the first time and not knowing what would happen, it's like the Force for Rey, as Maz described... it's always been there, lol. I've got a bunch of the old games and books, some comics, collected to the toys for years. So yeah I've been a big Star Wars fan all my life and I loved the movie. There's also the fact that Rian Johnson admitted that he just tossed out all the notes given to him from the previous director so there's absolutely zero coherence between the first two films of this trilogy. And he asked for notes from JJ and JJ said his script was fine as is and even said he wished he could direct the movie himself because of how good it was. So clearly JJ was fine with it and thought Rian's story was better than whatever he had in mind. And I don't know what movies you were watching if you thought there was zero coherence.

Just because they are strong warrior women is no reason to assume they're lesbians. And someone being fond of someone doesn't mean they're romantically interested in them. From what I can tell, the intent was they treat guys like they have cooties, like little girls. It's a joke.

I thought that was done by census or survey. Of course, that relies on the person answering honestly.

No one has heard of Saitama. Gotta register heh. Some weirdo spouting nonsense and viewed with great suspicion. LOOOOOOOL he's STILL alive.

Is that his hair or a hat? Why didn't he use full power against Sonic? He's a lot like me because spinning arms and spares him lmao. You call that an innocent smile?! LOOOOL punched in the nuts! What kind of person would possess such a redundant name.

All decapitated. Lmao took out the golden turd. Hahaha hit him in the back of the head and he falls right over. Survived because of his thick skull.

Mumen Rider. Golden turd lmao. Strider Hyru!

Stole his look and ruining his name.

Wrong building hahaha. Bicycle guy rescued the little boy's balloon! Spopovitch on the loose!

They don't wanna work lmao.

To be fair, Japan is pretty ethnically homogeneous. They should have the same numbers of LGBT as any other nation, though.

Lmao another paranoid story. Sai got a sense of humor haha. Sasuke got away, which means this shit is going to get dragged even further. So are they dead, or still in Madara's eye? It seems like Kishimoto forgot about Feudal Lords and the rest of the world outside the ninja villages. Approving an alliance after the fact hahahaha. So this guy isn't an idiot like the Leaf's Feudal Lord. Going through Hokages fast!

Karen wasn't sure what Sakura's name is. So lucky!

FLCL music video again! Did that say spiky seeds?

These people kind of remind of Ishvalens. Kisame is still alive?! Wow a perfect clone in form and chakra. Lmao calling himself weak.

Yamato you're a shitty ninja! You fell asleep and fell for Naruto's shadow clone! Sakura dead, oh no we'd all be heartbroken. Lmao that Sasuke glare again. Sasuke is Sasuke. So, an asshole?

Karen with more sense than Naruto or Sasuke...

Another anime style game commercial?

It's not that we won more that they ran away. Then Yami says the lion guy says we won lmao.

Amazon she-women, yes, but why would you assume they're lesbian because of that? Looks like they think guys have cooties instead LOL.

Great fights! Broke a seal? Does this guy you turns into a bomb without that seal? Can't Asta's sword undo that power? Loved by The Mana... you might say The Force is with them. They're leaving just like that?

How are they brothers? Another internal tsundere argument from Noelle. Haha Asta building a harem. I love these interactions with the captains and Yami. LMAO YAMI. Keh Keh Keh! Hog all the interesting battle for yourself. Loooooool doing his hair. My partner is the battlefield. Charlotte likes Yami? And her and her squad are still at the cooties stage as grown women?!

Oh ok. Thanks lol.

What do you mean?

Dio was already strong without the Stand. He was shot in the throat with an arrow! He should be dead already! This Stand is kind of a knock-off of the guy that Polnareff and Iggy fought. Lmao knocked himself out with his own Stand. Trillion on his outfit. These guys like money?
