Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie review 

Kalamity361 afte rise of skywalker review I wanted to see him happy again.

Yea,sucks...now hes like...whatever...

It reminds me of how happy after I left the theater in 2015... only to be disappointed in 2017. Oh well here goes me seeing rise of skywalker in 2019

sad but true. I am amazed how crazy people were when this poop fest came out, including myself.

@@mractour5957 this poop fest was the best one though out of the three. And please don't start that it's a rip off of a New Hope. I know that.

PFFFT

🤣

I'm your 1K liker.

That abomination didn't deserve to see the big screen

Rian Johnson: Mwahahahaha

😂😂

This was a time for star wars. TFA was great, rogue ones great, and I thought the future for stat wars would be so cool. Sigh

Great comparison honestly

Yeah. And noticing the warning signs in the background. In The Force Awakens, you could maybe say that it wasn't so bad. It definitely did some good things. Then by The Last Jedi we were clearly in denial. This is obviously not working but its Star Wars. It HAS to work. And by The Rise of Skywalker we had come to accept the inevitable and we just came to watch this sham of a trilogy crash and burn and Rise of Skywalker did exactly what we expected.

Like, right before she goes through the divorce

Rian Johnson fault, JJ Abraham's had a good plan, but he had to adapt ep. 9 to the shitty ep.8 he got from Johnson

@@JC-rm6pm yeah it's such a shame 😔

@@JC-rm6pm What fucking plan? hahahahahaha

1000 subs, no videos? they actually had no plan

@@umanuu Abrams had an outline for the whole trilogy and Rian scrapped the whole thing and did his own "vision." The fact that Kathleen Kennedy allowed that to happen was when people saw how flawed her leadership was

I know right, assholes.

+Jeremy Jahns Maybe disable the comments for just this one video?

+Jeremy Jahns Thanks for the heads up!

yeah I already saw one. I'm disappointed. thanks for the warning

Thank you!!! Always enjoy your reviews! Also don't let anything bad happen to that precious Star Wars cape!!!!!! ;)

I'm still conflicted in my mind if he really is giant or the hologram just exaggerates his side. I'm serious.

Lol I thought so too. I was like "Woah this motherfucker is huge...oh....it's a hologram" roflmao

It's called the tiny penis complex

+julius fog NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you are not.

+julius fog Perhaps Lord Snoke is compensating for something? Hehe. Hehe. (I'm making a Shrek reference for anyone that doesn't get it)

@asian dude TROS sucked.

Starwars has the most retarded fans. First the boomers hate on the prequels, and now this bitches are crying about the new ones. At least ROS was better than the last Jedi.

​@ It completely devalues the character arcs established in the previous movies, and proves that there is absolutely no cohesion among the new films. For me, ROS is just one of the infections, that is the new trilogy, which has transformed Star Wars into a gangrenous corpse.

TROS' limitations all stemmed from the debacle that was the last jedi

Noah Martin *before the last jedi

*Before Rian Johnson...*

@JerickHerick35 It's not Rian's fault JJ couldn't follow-up a good film \:D/

JAJAJAJA man that was Good

Noah Martin before the final order

I thoroughly enjoyed his character. He was so human. Wish people would understand not every evil character had to be a big bad toughy. I loved how vulnerable he ended up being. Struggling to fight off the light side. That was just awesome.

KYLO REN is so much more powerful than Vader. Could Vader stop a laser bolt in mid-air and keep it there? Ha no!

+zamkowicz he is awesome, I loved his tantrums

+zamkowicz To start I loved the movie, it was a blast. That being said I hear you. However, im confused about where theyre going with him. He can't be the main villain in the next movie, that ship has sailed for him. They turned him into to much of a joke. This can be seen in his temper tantrum light saber outbursts, his ass getting handed to him by a jedi who had literally never touched a saber before, and best of all his own storm troopers treating him like a joke/little child. It was hilarious when he was crying and the Storm Troopers turned their heels 180 and walked the other way. You could almost here them saying "Jr is having another bitch fit, send in the techies to replace his computer afterwards".

+CptCanada Seems clear to me: he's going to seek revenge against Rey and later on we'll most likely see him redeem himself somehow. That or Chewbacca will rip his arms off

We need To time travel back to 2015 to warn him

@@Arkhamman2023 Why do that? Let happy Jeremy die happily, unlike My child-counterpart who died a slow and painful death. (Darn you high-school)

We all thought Star Wars was going to be saved with the sequel trilogy but ooh were we wrong.

TYRONE!!!!!!!!

MAGNUS!!!!!! You are the best!!!!

whoo!!

The black Jedi. not the Viking

+Tyrone Magnus HAN SOLO IS KILLED BY KYLO REN!!!

+Christian Hansen lol

+Christian Hansen Boba fett and phazma need to hook up

+The Scorpion That's the twist, Phazma's last name is Fett!

EXACTLY. People been saying "Captain Phasma will be the new Boba Fett!! I can't wait to see her!!", and I be like "oh, so she will do jack shit huh".

+elias holmberg I thought so, but she's confirmed for episode VIII.

Yeah 😔

Episode 8 was such an important film to the sequel trilogy since it determined the route for the rest of the trilogy, why did they have to go the route they did...

@@MannyMarr except that episode ix did the opposite of following tlj's route

Even more so with his recent Acolyte reviews. Disney really did a number on Jeremy's love for Star Wars!

Was more Disney

Finn's actually in the top 1 percent stormtrooper.And was considered officer material according to the book that takes place before the movie lol.He is not just a sanitary stormtrooper.

That's all well and good. But in the universe surrounding the MOVIES he IS just a traitor sanitation storm trooper at this point..

+paul lynch the books are canon though.You can't just ignore that.

She is the new Boba...being popular by doing almost nothing

+Maxx Lau lol that's actually quite true.Like Fett she is popular due to their badadd appearence.

PROTEST IN THE STREETS!

+CodeStation Kylo Ren is made up of 4 Ewoks.

And when that Sith Jawa shows up with that black light saber (god that was evil) and says, calmly, "Utinni" in his little squeaky voice... I got chills.

. I didn't see Jabba, but he may have been in the temple with the creatures around Maz Kanata. Just also have to say Lupita Nyong'o is gorgeous... they should have had her actually visibly in the film, not just voice actor/motion capture. Oh wait I got serious for a bit. Fuck that. Chewie humping Rey's leg was a bit too far.

+CodeStation Jar Jar kills the prequels

Kylo should have been the main villain who actually cares about snoke hes a rip off

+George Lucas What did you think of the movie George? Was it dense enough?

+George Lucas Forgotten. In the prequels, as the prequels.

+George Lucas Can't forget the "Goonga's" Lmao!

+George Lucas Jar Jar is the key.

Yes it was very dense. I am so proud of JJ! Every single frame had so much going on!

WHY WOULD YOU SPOIL THAT!? D':

I fucking knew I should've stayed away from the comments

+left4let You are lying. I know it.

Next you are going to tell me that Darth Vader is Luke's father, pffft, how rediculous

+AstrosGamer it true

You aint have to say that bro😔

oohhoooohooo we are

(Except for when you know who dies)

I saw it opening night and when *STAR WARS* popped up on screen with the star wars theme people cheered like crazy.

anphal tola Shut up you cancer no one wants you here.

Shiva Khawas Go away you cancerous dipshit

+Evil Power Such as?

+gingervampireFTW It would be totally spoilery to talk about here. Have you seen the movie yet? Okay below there might be a few spoilers read at your own risk: The Biggest problem I had with the movie is the even Super duper death star laser. That trope is over. How do you revisit that a 3rd time? The first order was evil, there was no need to give them this super laser weapon. It was lame. Ray was missing something. Something that could have been shown in the movie in about 3 minute in the beginning. She could have woken from a force dream of the past and the future. With a few words telling her to give into the force.( She could have been dreaming about Ren Killing Leia.That would have been cool.) Then while she was a scavenger she could have shown some Jedi powers before she just jumps into the falcon and starts flying around like she was Anakin Skywalker. She should have been able to use the force already, instead of Bam, she can now use the force. All I'm saying is her power or control of the force should have grown even more over time in the movie but it should have been set that Rey had the power even without training. It should have been apart of her from the start. Leia was just bad. I would have shot her role differently from the start. Shot being the key word. Leia should have been with Poe at the start of the movie looking for the Map to Luke. ( Oh I would not have used a Map, that was just Stupid. They should have been interviewing someone that run into Luke or Seen him. Someone that Luke might have saved before running off yet again. Luke should have be doing the old David Banner role wondering the galaxy helping people while trying to hide. The Map idea was just stupid.) Leia should have been Max Von Sydow's character. She should have been hunted down and Killed by Ren in the opening of the movie as Poe trys to escape. BB8 should have went to Rey for Help to rescue Poe only to run into Finn who tells them Poe is dead. Then they are running for their lives before the order is after them. The movie should have played the start as Leia dealing with Ren...not Ben. She should have played it as if her son was dead and she was facing the monster that kill him.(Never letting us know who Ren was) That would have added to the role of Han when Han then tracks down Ren to kill him, only to fail to be able to pull the trigger and is then Killed himself. Just before Ren kills his father, he takes off the mask to show he was just a young man. At that time we should have pointed out his quest was complete. First it was Leia and not Han. With the mask, there should have been a scar or a mark on this face. Something he was covering up. I know it's a trope but a scar would have added to the idea that the boy was damaged and it was part of what pushed him to the dark side. Or better yet, it could have been a scar given to him by Luke. Yet Luke was unable to bring Ben back and was even less able to kill him after he goes dark. Mostly due to Han and Leia. But with Han and Leia dead. It would give Luke the strength to come out of hiding to finish the job he failed to do. Kill Ren. Of course Luke would need to fail at this as well in the next movie, leaving the task to Rey. who can step up to take down Ren. REN SHOULD NOT GET SAVED. HE NEEDS TO STAY EVIL and DIE EVIL. We can't keep using all plots here and giving him the Vader would be wrong. Sometime you can't be saved. Ren was awesome in the opening of the movie. Then he takes his mask off and the character takes a bad turn. He comes off like a whiny brat. Not good. Finn is a Storm Trooper. Sure he could have had his break and wanting to leave the order, but where does that equal bitch or fool? He's a trooper. He should have had some more Leadership skills. We should have been looking at the next general in training, not someone trying to run at all costs. Luke Running is different. Luke ran because he could have seen his fall to Ren and the Dark power that would risen. Something he could not let happen and was looking for a way to stop it. Yet Finn was a Trooper. He should have it in him that death is something that comes to all troopers. Even as a Trooper Finn could have had a break, which leaves him No longer wanting to kill for the Order, but willing to defend himself and others if need be. So he stays the bad ass trooper even without the armor. Just picture Fett without Armor and him still kicking ass. That should have been Finn. There I fixed about half the movie and it took me about 20 minutes.

+Evil Power you must be so fun at parties

+Evil Power you just don't like it because they didn't do it the way you wanted? that Leia bullshit is your opinion.

+mattwmercer I am... I really am.

Exactly man. They just don't get it. He's more human. He's struggling to rid himself of the light side still. He's trying so hard to match up to Darth Vader. And he's still young and being trained. Simple minded people just wanted him to be Vader 2.0. Silly.

Joseph lecoure at last someone that understands. He clearly is going to have more character development in the next movie

+Michael Cruz Couldn't agree more!

+Michael Cruz I hope you're right that he's not a Sith. I like them just being some new sect of the dark side than sith. He's a weaker villain right now but I assume he'll be stomping the shit out our heroes for the next film. I mean the Empire/FO just had two loses back to back now.

Thebigredsnake​ He's part of the Knights of Ren. The Siths are more like a ideology but maybe they decide to make Snoke a Sith considering how much this movie borrowed from the old ones .

Yup, force awakens left a LOT of potential for future films, but Disney fucked it up.

I thought TFA was very, very good. AND it opened up SO MUCH for the entire trilogy to be iconic. I liked The Last Jedi as a film quite a bit; I thought it was a very good film. HOWEVER, it meant that all the potential for this trilogy to be iconic died out - it wasn't a very good *Star Wars* movie. I bet if JJ directed all the films, each one would've been great. The third film is JJ trying to fix TLJ and please the fans, not making the best film that he wanted to make.

TFA was honestly pretty amazing in my opinion. They should have just let JJ direct the trilogy so it would have a cohesive story.

Truer words were never spoken.

Achintya Jain Disney never fucked up, Rian Johnson did

+Zer0dog me too

Lockjaw, instead of commenting 'this movie is shit'on several reactions here, why don't you try to be mature and come up with some arguments that support your opinion? Or at least be mature enough to accept that people have different opinions? Yeah, I know it's tough, but at least try.

+Duel Screen Yep pretty much agree with everything you said on that entire thing. Yeah literally everything. Even your 9/10 I agree with.

If only you knew what would follow

Coming back after 3 years and reading this comment 😂😂 especially after Bob Iger and his book

+Adam Sykes Too much of or too little of anything can be bad. Is that really that hard to understand? So if Force Awakens had been a literal copy/paste of New Hope but with new character names, would you be be saying 'pish off' to people who think it's too similar?

people are never happy star wars fans are hard to please they are never fucken happy because they are 40 yr old virgins that will never get laid

+Adam Sykes I think it was on point except they should not have added a 3rd Death Star.

star wars fans are never happy. they always fucken complain. i for one loved every second of the movie! :D people will always whine. get over it you fucken babies seriously stop eating dorritos in your moms basement people

There is a difference between trying to maintain a tone from a previous film as opposed to copying specific plot points from a previous film

I feel the same way.

I was disappointed with daisy's acting as well as how poe and Finn escaped the ship hanger without disabling the shield... unless he already did so before hand. and how kylo ren got his ass handed to him.

+Xycron Could be the Darth Vader of this film, gets their butt whupped in the first film only to kick major ass in the second one.

+hikingbird42 Yeah I was also very disappointed with the way Kylo got beat by two newbies

Naju34 Remember he had just tanked a direct hit from a wookie bowcaster.

It's depressing that in just 4 years Disney managed to turn off so many fans to Star Wars. Jeremy being one of them. It's sad :(

+crzymn246 Kylo Ren isn't highly trained either. He's never dueled with a saber before. This is a first for all of the characters. So for them to be flailing as if this is their first time doing it makes perfect sense. And the cinematography, and the amazing use of the environments, was sick.

Kylo Ren was not highly trained. Twice you see him lose his shit and slash things with his saber. From the movie he was being trained, but he was not that far into training.

Kylo Ren wasn't even completely trained, and it looks like his fighting style is self-taught; I doubt he ever got to spar with Lightsaber-wielding opponents.

sylinmino Did you not pay attention? It was shown that he used to be Luke Skywalker's pupil but he turned to the dark side and betrayed the Jedi Order. He must have had at least a modicum of basic training in order to do that and not get killed. He wasn't shown to have any dismemberment or scars so clearly he was competent enough to be in a battle that killed dozens without a scratch. Expecting him to at least how to properly hold a sword in a guard position doesn't seem like that lofty of an expectation.

+crzymn246 When you spend a significant amount of time letting your skills fade away (who else is he going to Lightsaber spar with?) and you weren't even fully trained to begin with, you'd be surprised. His overconfidence and lack of connection to the force/wrecked emotional state was his greatest weakness and ultimately why he lost the fight.

CGI!

+JayDub eh .It was just a reboot of a new hope

+JayDub I thought it was great too! Not sure it's the best for me personally, but a great Star Wars movie without a doubt!

***** yes.It was still good. but disappointing

HowlingSphinx Probably a mix between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope

ME, it really breaks my heart

+Matt Cameron Or the scene when she discovers the lightsaber; I found the lack of music gave that scene a great amount of weight that it otherwise wouldn't have had with music.

+Matt Cameron MUSIC what music i hated it i couldn't even remember one song

+Matt Cameron The scene with Kylo Ren & Han. No music needed, and it built perfect tension.

+Matt Cameron Hey what was the theme of this one? You know how the other 6 literally have one song that is the theme to the entire movie? What was this one's theme?

Or when the resistence shows up and Poe takes down one of the First Order ships the explosion is muffled like you're hearing from within his ship. The sounds alone were one of my favorite aspects.

+Abel Garcia Ha. Nice!

Yo same

+boricua1151 Wtf that was the same for me in London xD

+TheHalomaster256 I believe it can be seen worldwide haha

+Abel Garcia the "Star Wars, nothing but Star Wars" jingle is from SNL in 1978. Jeremy didn't make it up.

Generic Green Unit F for jeremy’s hope.

So that means kylo ren is the real big boss/ the real darth vader?!? Mind=blown

+Sudarsan Ragavan Punished Vader - A fallen legend

That doesn't explain why mgsV sucked so damn hard.

Lol.

+Sudarsan Ragavan METAL GEAR?!

+Matt Eldridge honestly that was the best part for me

+Matt Eldridge They ended it setting up the story would continue, that is what they needed to!

+Matt Eldridge That's the thing that people tend to forget. Some bitching about it like dumbasses. This movie is never meant to be a standalone instead it's part of the trilogy from the get go.

+feyzal92 I think people have just forgotten that we're getting two more movies after this!

+Matt Eldridge daisy ridley was such a fucking badass, can't wait for Episode VIII

+Max Krampe Bro. When a movie is this hyped and this mainstreamed. It ain't ever gonna please everyone.

+Max Krampe I just got back from watching it and was having mixed feelings until I finally got home. I could not explain why I felt so disappointed with the movie since I liked the characters (even though they grew overly attached for no reason) and the action was pretty good as well. That's when I realized that this wasn't a Star Wars movie, but just an action movie with Star Wars slapped in the title. The prequels might not have been as good as the originals, but they still felt like Star Wars. I didn't like some parts in the original trilogy and hated some parts of the prequels, but there were a couple of scenes where my inner child screamed and clapped. Episode VII only gave the that feeling twice in the whole film, when the opening theme started, and when Luke showed up.

+Le Peel I watched the trailers , but I didn't give in the hype. Except I still didn't like it.

+Le Peel Agreed wholeheartedly. People judge shit and act so superior bur never have any good argument other than, "It was dumb" or "That was stupid."

+Saric It didn't blow me away either but it's the first movie in probably over a decade that I just want to watch over and over. It's entertaining and made the world feel so new again. I'm excited to be living in a time where I get to experience good Star Wars. The prequels were okay, there were things I liked about them but I didn't care when they came out. To me Luke, Leia, Han, Vader, Yoda, C3-PO and R2-D2 are the kind of characters that made the series great and now we get to continue that story.

+Sir Artorias best written character: Kylo Ren biggest surprise: general Hux biggest letdown: not enough Phasma

agreed, she was amazing. I like Ren as well, his arc is going to be interesting.

+Zoltan1251 Kylo was amazing. He was everything I wanted Anakin to be in prequels, actually. exploring the Dark side & his powers. His story is going to be awesome across the trilogy. He's not even fully trained yet.

+Zoltan1251 General Hux's speech.....HOLY SHIT.

Best character;Rey Worst character; Kylo Ren aka tantrum throwing Vader fanboy.

But Disney made TFA. I lay blame on Rian and to a lesser extent Kathleen Kennedy. JJ was forced to make two movies into one because the rise of Skywalker is definitely the real sequel to TFA. TLJ doesn't count. 😂

286mic my not forgiving point was more aimed at Disney changing directors. Unforgivable

@@286mic The problem was having no roadmap. JJ asked questions he didnt know the answers to.

@@kbg12ila JJ did have a road map. Rian Johnson threw it out. That's confirmed to have happened. That's why ROS spent so much time trying to rewire everything. If ROS had two movies to flesh out what it had and directly came after TFA, everything would be fine. Rian Johnson and his garbage put the trilogy in a hard place and Kathleen Kennedy is just as garbage for letting him do that.

@@286mic Yeah that happened, but it was said it was a very rough road map. It wasnt something defined. JJ always works like this. They both messed it up, but it was bob iger and KKs fault most of all.

Yep, here I am

+Alex Cross Yeah, Edge of Tomorrow is amazing.

i reall like star wars and me and my bro agree on it being average it feels like a marvel movie which is a bad thing the whole internet is just riding the hype train hard

+Alex Cross Die hard fan here and no they remade Episode IV to me. It's just proof the rest of the fanbase got too hypercritical of the series and now the studio is too scared to have an original plot.

+Alex Cross yeah I didn't like it.

+Alex Cross Edge Of Tomorrow is boss. Much better than Star Wars Episode VII: The Reboot Awakens

+Blake Bailey she will in the next film

+Justin Street What?? I thought she died in the trash can

+Eduards Verenkovs we don't know for certain (unless the cast list for 8 is already up and I haven't checked) since the death is not on screen but if they just threw her in a trash compactor and we never saw them turn it on she could have escaped

CanadianCaribou Nonsense! Trash is too deadly

+Eduards Verenkovs Tell me this, Did Han, Leia, Luke and Chewie die in the trash can? Didn't think so.

Its probably because that original Star Wars movie sucked if I had to guess. Most liked rogue one.

+WH250398 a masterpiece

+The Whiteheart The Godfather

***** The problem with Rey is not the Power, but the ability. The two are not the same thing. Also she never had any use of the force before the Lightsabre 'calls' to her and all of a sudden she is using Jedi Mind tricks? really.

+Ino Koludrovic it wasnt rey if you watch it again it was luke in reys mind he is connected to her through the movie. that how she could use the mind trick and fight so well. she actually said to kylo "you are affraid that you wont be as powerful as darth vader" that was luke talking to kylo. and at the end kylo was smashing her in the duel but remember when she closed her then luke connected and she staarted fighting like luke.

Justin Street No offense but that's Nonsense. Luke was not connecting to her. She knew about Darth Vader because she was probing Kylo Rens Mind while he was probing here's, which is why i say she won the mind battle duel which is bullshit because she was untrained.

Ino Koludrovic not nonsense after watching several times ive picked up on it. she actually said to fin she didnt know how she was doing it. its lukes daughter for sure thats why he was so emotional at the end when he saw her.

***** Ren was off guard when the bolt hit him. No way he could had used the force to tank it. Also in terms of Physical Training there is only so much that can be done. That Bolt was sending Troopers Flying from the force of Impact. Also while i understand that the light saber was calling the protagonist in Rebels, it did not make sense then, it does not make sense now. The reality is there is nothing special about a light saber besides the technology. There is not Mystical attachment between a Light saber and a Jedi or Sith.

The Force Awakens- Good time if you're drunk

Adrian SH nah man it's awesometacular.

Cole Soderstrom nah. One of the most unoriginal copy and paste movie.

Cole Soderstrom btw i can show you proof.

...you realize Force Awakens wasn't trying to be original right? It was trying to be a soft reboot and jumpstart a dead franchise by going back to its roots. That was Force Awakens' job. Not to be original. I guarantee you episode 8 and 9 will have "original stories". But that wasn't The Force Awaken's job. You dislike Force Awakens because you wanted it to be something, and the movie was trying to be something else entirely. Simple

+The Dashboard I think that's kind a Star Wars tradition now. Tarkin, Boba, Jabba, Grievous, Maul, Jango, Dooku all suffer the same fate of being cool but getting punked out because they are henchmen.

The actress said she will play a bigger part next movie.

+Thebigredsnake man I really hate how Tarkin died in the 4th movie since he was one my favorite character in the clone wars and the 4th movie. Plus he's better than the new guy we got in my opinion.

atanas petkov I like Hux he's at least not screwing up. However I agree Tarkin is a good snobby villian and the Clone Wars stuff with him was fantastic. Him and Anakin connecting over facism/getting stuff done.

+The Dashboard You know which soldier of the First Order became the fan favorite that Phasma was intended to be? TR-8R, aka, the electric-baton stormtrooper. No kidding, this guy has become a wicked-popular meme. Look him up if you don't believe me.

Yes she was awesome! And so cute too :)

+Rob Robberson exactly

Poe was my favourite, you could just tell he was having so much fun during this film

+Connor Tardis Daisy Ridley was the worst character in that movie

+Alberto Mora Daisy Ridley wasn't a character in that movie.

I did and I bet Jeremy feels awful.

@ I think the video "George felt betrayed" from Jeremy speaks for itself, i am sure he might still like The Force Awakens but its obvious he does feels bad about the state Star Wars is in right now.

@ Well sir thats just your opinion, and as for me i dont care that he got 4 billion for it, he still was betrayed, it doesnt make it okay. And some of us do genuily like George's ideas.

+LX at least it was done right fro the msot part at least

I've heard that complaint a lot lately and I just saw the movie today, but I feel like while the plot was similar in concept, HOW it was done was what made it different and unique. 1.) Starkiller base is basically the Death Star: while it is undeniably true that the two are very similar, how the two look on the surface with Starkiller base having a fake atmosphere and the Death Star just being a machine is very different. Also, Starkiller base can destroy multiple planets with one shot and relies on a star's energy to do so 2.) BB 8's quest is the same as r2d2's: while both of them are essentially just delivering data to their destinations, BB 8's quest was more of a sidetrack to a future meet up to Luke, rather than being a plan to destroy Starkiller base... I can go on and on with this, basically; many other people are really exaggerating how similar this movie is to a new hope, it has homages and similar concepts sure, but HOW they are executed and the character motivations behind them are very different.

+James Quinonez THANK YOU!

His ideology was awfully handled. Good character otherwise.

Walamonga 1313 The ideology of (sort of spoilers?)... Wanting to get away from the the ruthless killing First Order/Empire because he saw how brutal people like Ren could be?

+Stephen Brockie Have you seen the cinematography in the prequels? It's some of the laziest camera placement and movement I've seen in a major Hollywood film trilogy. The cinematography in this film was spectacular. But I do agree with you on the lack of innovation in story development. That annoyed me.

jed52 There was some low hanging fruit to pick on in that movie (trilogy), sure, but the larger battles in the prequels and CGI was relevant for its time. I didn't see any amazing imagery in this film. Where was the wonder, where was the awe? The flat characters in the prequels were saved by the visuals. Lucas' creative genius is missing from this film. Abrams just stuck with the contrived safe formula of post classic cinema.

+Stephen Brockie One thing I will say about the prequels is that they were much more impressive. The visuals and audio were captivating. I didn't really feel that in this movie. This movie played it too safe. It was too predictable, and it rehashed too many things that already existed in the older movies. The music also felt uninspired, being largely composed of remixes from the old films. There was no Duel Of The Fates moment, no flying on the edge of your seat intensity. This movie felt largely unoriginal and it lacked intensity

+Stephen Brockie "Lucas' creative genius." HAH.

take a moment and look at the movies Lucas has directed and what he has contributed to cinema. yes, he is a creative genius.

I still like it and know a lot of people who still do. Stop projecting your own opinions on to others.

Internet haters had to wait for it to be released on home video because they're allergic to fresh air

+The Croaker But not as cool yet

One Minute Movie Reviews Well I mean, we are comparing her to Boba Fett, the only one as cool is Darth Vader

Boba will never be replaced.

In my opinion, no, he was not like boba fett.

+The Croaker Yeah, just like Boba she went out like a wuss. Unlike Boba, she wasn't even cool. She wasn't menacing or anything. She was just a wimpy voiced girl with cool armor.

***** Even then there was no way she could win a duel against a very well trained Sith lord. Then again, we're talking about the Sith lord who was having trouble in a lightsaber duel against an ex-stormtrooper. These are just minor nitpicks of mine though, because all in all it was a great movie.

***** He was still swinging that lightsaber really violently, but i guess you're right. Chewie's fucking awesome.

Cuz Ren said they SHE IS VERY STRONG WITH THE FORCE. It's like puberty, u can wake up one day and your ball drop..

+Deus Maguary I mentioned in another comment that it seems that Kylo Ren isn't that strong yet because he is still young, inexperienced, and arrogant (much like Luke and Anakin were). His overconfidence makes him get caught off guard by Rey and Finn. We Star Wars fans are just so used to the developing hero and the established, powerful, and experienced sith lord, but here I see that BOTH the villan (Kylo Ren) and hero (Rey) are still developing and aren't fully ready as jedi and sith.

***** I'll admit, that sounds pretty cool and innovative.

a more tragic one as well....

It's not a bad movie, it's just recycled, but everyone let it pass at the time because they expected its sequels to be way better but that never happened

@ Everyone let it pass? It's a bit more than that, all the self proclaimed die hard fans where crapping on George Lucas for a decade (remember the meme George Lucas raped my childhood?) and many cheered when it was announced Disney bought Star Wars and were going to make new movies without his input? The hypocrisy stinks. Now they say Disney is an evil corporation that ruined Lucas' vision. Well you shouldn't have crapped on Lucas in the first place and cheered for Disney, maybe your criticism now would be more valid.

@@Phil_Mitchell the die hard fans of any media ever are a minority, yes when TFA released it was liked by the general audience, a lot of them haven gone back and changed their opinion after the next two movies

No he didn't

Sshhh. I wanna see some fanboys rage dammit. Haha

your dumb it was an awesometacular

He gave it an Awesometacular.

+Cesar Munoz you're

Well except no. I mean I understand completely what your saying but that was just a bad example. Movie ratings are opinionated, students grades are not, if a teacher recognizes the student got the wrong answer than it wouldn't be a good teacher to give them a good grade. For Jeremy it completely makes sense, if you are a previous fan of Star Wars you will like this movie more than new comers because of it's inside jokes, references, and nostalgia other people watching just won't have which will be less enjoyable, It think that just makes Jeremy even a better critic for forming an opinion for everyone whether you are a Star Wars fan or not.

Jack Sheppard he says that purely for nostalgia he gives it the best rating, but rating it objectively he'd give it the second highest rating.

Yes which makes sense

Jack Sheppard which parallels my OP.

+Xross SweatPantz actually he said that because of all the references he found it more enjoyable but a non fan wouldn't hence they'd like it a bit less.

@@kurthamilton7744 KK runs Lucasfilm. She gets the blame. I doubt Iger is forcing his agenda into the movies.

I wouldn’t really put it on Lucasfilm I’d put it on Disney. I don’t blame JJ Abrams or any of the actors I feel like they did the best they could with what they had. If there were 2movies left I feel like JJ could’ve made it a great trilogy

*Disney

@@kennethha416 Disney just writes the checks. It is Lucasfilm that comes up with the bullshit.

@@deathsdoor07 ah got it

lmao Jar Jar is Non existant yo

+TheFeralBishop Oh that would be magnificent

+TheFeralBishop Most probably missed it or didn't get it as it was subtle BUT I believe there WAS a wink to the prequals and them being DESTROYED , I wont spoil it but when the planets are getting destroyed (aaah cmon you knew it was gunna happen some time with that huge cannon thing) one looks to be a representation of the prequals having a look and style of them and if Jar jar was hidden amongst the crown I wouldn't have been surprised

+Dapper Disrespectful well that is like saying the emperor was disappointing in ESB. you still have 2 movies to go. you don't want everything in this one film

Snoke was a bit disappointing. I think we'll see more if him in part VIII. He is definitely Darth Plagieus I think.

+8th wonder of the world agreed. The Emperor was barely in OT until Jedi. Just a guy in background pulling the strings, just like Snoke.

+Dapper Disrespectful Not disappointing, but I hated how he was like a giant. That makes it super unnatural, especially since we all know Rey/Finn will end up having to kill him in episode IX

Isaac Casey he was only a giant hologram just like Emperor Palps was......he was a giant hologram head!

Alienated But it's just sad that they demolished everything in the prequels (not the bad acting and all that but the planets,world in those movies).

+AboAbdulable It's not sad at all, fuck Corusant. I didn't ever want to see that stupid fucking planet again and no movie has made me smile as hard as when Force Awakens obliterated that shit.

logandh2 ok, but The Force Awakens still suffers from an originality problem, I consider it a problem since it's a missed opportunity to introduce anything new without lazily relying 90% of the movie on the originals' materials and plots.

This is sad now.

Oof. This comment didn’t age well

Kinda like Boba Fett in that way.

+Cyphox she also hast to duct tape her manhood to her thigh to pass as a woman

Yea she wears a two piece under there it gets hot as hell under there I mean did you see Fin he was sweating for like half the movie

+mshara1 It's because she had chromed armor. So... I guess... she was badass (somehow).

+Matthew Rubenstein boba actually did shit

It was in the trailer lmao

I know I was being sarcastic lol

+Cesar Galvez lol People like you is why I stayed off the internet the last few days before watching it

+suavesitoportu That's what I did. Internet's a dangerous place to being spoiled out. I'm watch I just watch the movie without having a clue of the story except for what the trailers showed me.

This nigga

What could of been 😔

People throw that "nostalgia" card around too much when people like something someone else doesn't.

+Vincent Gilmore He's right though. That was a glaring thing that shouldn't have happened. It's like if Luke beat Vader in ESB.

+MrZithgal I never really mentioned the fight. But if you watch his spoiler talk, he brings up Kylo hasn't really had to fight anyone like him since Luke was the only other Jedi around and he basically went into hiding. Plus Kylo got shot in the stomach. While it could be considered unrealistic, those two elements should be taken into consideration.

Vincent Gilmore Another glaring issue was it felt like Darth Vader had chosen the light side, and we didn't know what the reason was for this film. If you catch my drift.

+elgato9o The whole point was that Ren, for all his grandstanding, was still an immature, arrogant child who never completed his training, with Luke or with Snoke. Besides, I wouldn't be surprised if Luke didn't even teach the students how to wield a lightsaber before Ren turned; with the Sith eradicated, there would have been no need. Hence why Ren's lightsaber was so shoddily constructed. He was never even taught how to make one properly, let alone how to fight with it. It's real easy to intimidate people with a lightsaber, a mask, a voice changer, and a dark cloak. Actually getting into a sword fight with someone else is a whole different matter.

+Ben Hamilton 2. Well Rey was good with spear so she could be good with lightsaber i guess.

She lived by herself and had to take care of herself all these years. Probably learned from fighting other inhabitants of her planet.

Ren was a weakling in the end bc he got shot in the stomach

+Ben Hamilton Chewie shot Ren, that's why he was weak.

+Ben Hamilton To answer 3. You do know he got injured right? Did you not see that?

WTF the originals had so many jokes

Here is one. Star wars force awakens= A new hope with small bits of the other episodes

What jokes?

I never said jokes. I said humour.

Alfie871 sorry. I meant what humour?

I wanted more too, but only because I felt like I was cheated out of my money because it was so boring that I fell asleep during the movie.

All this movie made me go is “that was it? Really?”

Noooo!'

NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!

+The Vagabond No. *DING*

+d3fod mate its spelled d a d.

+d3fod Spoiler!!!! Darth Vader is also Dad

It's funny cause it's actually true.

I cri evrytim

Yeah, it's like there was this one situation in the movie when Kylo is asked to put off his mask and then we see it. That was the point of the mask in the first place: not to make the Jar Jar twist so bloody obvious.

***** Yeah. It was pretty obvious though.

+Sean Walker but really this is what happens KYLO ren is Han Solo and Leia' son, becomes the sith Lord, kills his father too. Luke was his trainer and essentially become the new YODA.

Its definitely dragged down by the other two movies. We were giving this movie the benefit of the doubt as essentially an intro movie for a great trilogy to come. This movie ended up being the peak of the sequel trilogy (the other two were absolutely AWFUL). And this movie isn't anywhere near good enough to be the peak.

Yeah, this movie is definitely the biggest example of movies that went from being loved to hated

It makes me sad 😢 the film is fine, but the trilogy as a whole is bad. What we can’t wait to see is new management for lucasfilm

AND THE FIRST ORDER AND KYLO REN ARE REALLY MENACING. IT'S REALLY WELL DONE.

+StillGotShit4Brains I'm definitely with you on the Rathars. It wasn't really needed and I would have preferred it not in the movie

+StillGotShit4Brains Felt the exact same way! Just by the first look of them we could see that they looked horrible! Feels like i've seen much better CGI in movies from even a couple of years ago!

+StillGotShit4Brains They looked kinda fake, but it would have looked soooo much worse if it was a practical effect. Tentacle monsters are hard to do. Fun scene though!

+StillGotShit4Brains Wow aren't you critical. I thought the CGI was very well done. I'm more disappointed by 1) A 3rd Death Star with the same plot as A New Hope 2) Kylo Ren without his mask can't be taken seriously 3) Kylo Ren turns from badass to emo, insecure teenager and can no longer be taken seriously 4) Kylo Ren, though injured, loses a duel to someone who has never wielded a lightsaber.

+bjehulk Use spoiler tags next time. Geez, man. Are you trying to give away the entire movie?

I didn't like it either. Too much hair like in the 70's.

+bjehulk lmfao. Funny troll.

+bjehulk I was surprisingly turned on by it. Definitely best scene of the whole movie.

Thanks for spoiling the movie...

"Just because Rey progresses quickly" there was no progression that's the problem, she went from not even knowing what the force was to mind controlling a storm trooper and out forcing Crylo Ren...

the movie has an inexcuseable plot, and inexcusable plot holes, plus a whole lot of toher shit. watch a video where they bring up the infinite amount of stuff it does bad

+Carl Geijer so it's worse than the prequels 😂

Energizing Films depends on how you look at it. morally, episode 7 is garbage. this movie will be considered shit in a few years because of unoriginal plot etc

You can type in almost any movie and add the word sucks on the end and something will always be bound to come up. If I typed in why Blade Runner sucks there would probably be a bunch of videos explaining why it's shit. Also it won't be considered shit. Sorry mate. The Prequels from day one were considered garbage and it's been eleven damn years since Revenge of the Sith and they are still considered garbage. If anything Force Awakens has made them look even worse by comparison.

Bane Knightfall its the other way around. the prequels were considered by many as amzing at first, but then everyone started hatng. still 100 times better than episode 7 because of originality, and good storytelling. many people like the prequels

I bought a Captain Phasma shirt. fuck this....

I feel so sorry for you

+Elnaz Vossoughi The trailers made her seem like a major character in the film when really she was just there waaaaay in the background. Talk about a wasted opportunity. Funny thing is my friend said Phasma is supposed to be a strong independent woman yet she was captured, succumbed to the demands of our heroes, and was thrown down the garbage chute. Yeah really strong alright

+Elnaz Vossoughi But hey kylo ren was awesome right?

Three words: New Boba Fett (for better and for worse)

+- Cypher - some scenes were really rushed, but other than that it exceeded my expectations

juckoosaurus I completely agree.

+- Cypher - the only mistake i could have found was that kylo ren took the mask to early off. Would have preferred it later on with han only

+- Cypher - 4/10

Erenor S It's good to have your own opinion, so if you thought that then good for you.

Sort of like Anakin to Paddame

+KingdomofSmileys Oh, no! People with opinions! Better bash them because they are different than mine!

+KingdomofSmileys So according to you.. if a bunch of people like something, and i dont, that means i stupid and wrong? so i should be exactly like you and the rest? i cant have my own opinion because the majority dont agree? that is your point? thats fair for you? Do you have any idea how stupidly arrogant you sound?

Junone King No, that wasn't my point. It just seems like whenever there's anything popular there are a few who love to go around professing how overrated with it. If you genuinely think that that's fine, no judgement here, but some people seem to do that to look cool. That's all.

+KingdomofSmileys That's how it is with literally every popular movie. Avatar, Frozen, and I bet even Lion King would have gotten that treatment if the internet was what it is now back then.

Arthus850 I agree. I honestly think Frozen was initially overrated but quickly became underrated again after the torrents of comments calling it overrated came in. If someone watches a movie with an open mind and genuinely finds it overrated I've got no problem with that, but I suspect a lot of people decide that a movie/game/whatever will be overrated if it's popular.

+Stormtrooper MK-97 holy crap... you are a total fanboy arent you... this is the worst movie, not only on the starwars saga, but,... basicaly the year, just pay attention, and see how this movie is not so much about star wars, and more about product placement, see around you, there are even star wars oranges out there, really men, its a rip of of the fourth movie (or first, whatever works for you)

+Bruno Martinez Product placement means placing a product from the real world inside a movie universe, like Twinkies in Die Hard or Ghostbusters. Did we see any Star Wars brand merchandise, or any other real world products, in the film placed in such a way as to grab our attention? I understand not liking the mass marketing of movies, but we should judge the film based on its own merits, not on outside factors like makeup or produce. Also, I think the word you are looking for is "homage" or "tribute" instead of rip-off. Star Wars is full of direct references to everything from Westerns to Taoism, so it shouldn't be surprising that it would take inspiration again from the things that made it so popular. Was it too safe? Yeah, but it does it well, even exceptional in some cases. Keep in mind that this movie is reintroducing a film series that was absent for a decade, and that the last three movies weren't well received. It's totally lily reasonable to go with what works in that case.

Bruno Martinez Not sure if the word "fanboy" is supposed to be an insult, but sure I will say I am. You see, we have differing opinions my friend.

is really not, absent for 10 decades? you can rent them or buy them any time you want, really, and also, i said product placement because this movie has done something aweful, it took the products and insted of showing them in the movie, we have them outside! for godsake there are even star wars oranges, what the hell? it is not done well it is in deed a copy of something we all already saw, we need something new, fresh, not a retale, also, been a fanboy sure is cool, but please, be true to the movie, it was not that good, at all. just.... just look at kylo ren, he, he was shit, not the shit, but shit.

+Bruno Martinez That was the whole point of the character: he was trying to be like his idol but deep down he is afraid and uncertain. It added a dimension of humanity and introduced the possibility of growth later on, and frankly it was refreshing to see that they weren't going to make him "Vader 2.0" but instead make him his own unique person. As for your other concerns, the movies were available for home viewing, but then again so are John Wayne movies. Are John Wayne movies in the popular consciousness? That's an extreme example, but you get my meaning. And I share your dislike of mass marketing, but that's controlled by Disney and Marketing executives, and it is completely unfair to blame the film for that. Product placement is under the control of the filmmakers and affects the viewer's suspension of disbelief, whereas what you described is simply a big corporation trying to make a lot of money. I thought they did a good job twisting old plot points so that they seemed fresh.

Well duh that’s because Disney And that dumb old hag who’s president of lucasfilm decided to just make it up as they go along and force social justice politics down our throats 😒
