It is a great film... I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone, HOWEVER

- There is a LOT of fan service in there. Like... A lot. Some might argue too much? Was it just me? A few almost scene by scene recreations that didn't even make sense. Why did the new giant death star have a canyon almost identical to the original death star? Why wasn't it giant? Why was it there at all other than for an x wing nostalgia scene? Hmmm...

- Not here for whiney, teary-eyed sith?? I'll let it slide as an origin story IF he comes back much darker in VIII. He manages to make ep ii/iii AnnieQuinn look hardcore. That's impressive.

- If they don't seriously up their lightsaber game in the upcoming films I might lose my ****? The actual fight came too late and wasn't doing it for me. Again, I'll let it slide as it makes sense from a storyline perspective: untrained jedi vs (conveniently) injured sith. But as presumably she will have been trained by Luke in the next one, and poutysith has gone to "complete his training"... I want a rematch. A nice, long, proper Jedi rematch.

Oh and as a final thought...

- If Finn doesn't turn out to be force-sensitive I will also lose my ****. Normal people can't use lightsabers! At all! Let alone go toe to toe with a sith (even a hurt one) and not get cut in half, probably by themselves.

Then again I think they're hinting that he is? Stormtrooper conditioning seems to work pretty well on almost all of them, so it would make sense if his instant defection as soon as he was supposed to start killing was because he was being "called by the light side".

Still, I will be considering this a huge plot hole if he's not. Stormtrooper with a lightsaber. No.

Anyway... Disquss...
