Bedfordâs Editor Note: This is pretty on-point, and will spoil âThe Force Awakensâ a lot if you havenât seen it, and even a bit if you have. So thanks for that, Blake.
After years of staggering hype, âStar Wars: The Force Awakensâ opened to nearly-unanimous positive reviews and the biggest opening of any film ever. Dozens of laudatory reviews are praising it as a worthy successor to the Original Trilogy.

I like the part in "Fargo" when one of the guys wants to go to "Pancakes House" and the other scrawny guy wants to go to a place where you can get a steak and a shot.
I favor the place with a steak and a shot.
Also, I obtained the prize turkey in the window.

EXACTLY RIGHT. I just went and saw it and it was very disappointing—just Episode IV redone.

But none of the novelizations had Han dying, NONE! That tells me it`s a JJ Abram`s BULL SHIT REWRITE!!! Like Star Trek, I will not go see another in this story line, just like with the Star Trek, JJ Abram, new story line bull shit. Abram can suck off Jar Jar Binks and a raging Klingon warrior, SIMULTNEOUSLY!

So I guess Episode VIII will be titled: “The First Order Gets Pissed”

How about on every web site I visit, I spread the word: Jar Jar was jealous because his character stunk on ice so he sucked off JJ Abram who then he killed off Han Solo! How`s that for spoilers?

I don’t think Solo is dead. Apparently Ford is listed in the cast of the next episode.
It’s possible that Jar Jar and his cousin Bong Bong (new character) were hiding and were able to catch Han while he was falling, and whisk him to a waiting surgical unit for repair. I’m pretty sure that’s what happened, and that we’ll get to see the amazing story in the next episode...

#45 This is what happens when you have JJ Abram in charge.
If Han Solo comes back to life then this will be Star Trek - The Search For Spock part 2
To: Perdogg
I did not enjoy this movie with Rey the biggest Mary Sue I have seen to date. Also, Darth Neo the emo Sith, is an extremely incompetent villain.
If they were just going to remake the original, they could have done a much better job. Blowing up the Death Star in three out of seven movies is really beating a dead horse.

Basically that’s it in a nutshell.
They made Kylo Ren look like a weak and pathetic Dark Jedi who struggled against a damn stormtrooper reject and a force novice.
Won’t be seeing it again....Worst movie in the franchise next to Episode I.
To: dinodino
Well maybe JJ was just hitting the Bong Bong a bit too hard hard?

I wonder if Ray will start to hear the voices of her grandfather and become an abomination like Alia.

No, Rey is the epitome/text book definition of a Mary Sue. Anyone who refuses to see this is a SJW moron. Episode IV Luke practiced on Wombats who were less than 2 meters so the Gary Sue does not wash with him as far as shooting photons in a two meter circumference. I.e. Was explained already. Luke got his ass kicked by Tusken raiders and eventually had to be saved twice by Ben and Solo in two different scenarios. Also Ben kept talking into his "ear" and teaching him to let go.
Got his butt kicked in V after SOME training and had to be saved by his sister. In VI Skywalker had to be saved again by his dad in the end.
In I Anakin had quick reflexes and could build things, that is about it. II got his butt kicked and in III his butt was kicked again.
Rey had no "hero's" journey, just a poorly written and conceived "girl power" trope/ fantasy. Rey is more Super Girl than a Ripley-esque hero who evolves. If they even try to write-in any type of "memory erasure" due to past training with this, the writing will be even more pathetic, predictable, and contrived. Movie was well done from a technical standpoint, but could smell Abrams' SJW tripe a mile away.

I am so tired of all the white imperial officers being british. That does not make them scarier. Maybe if they didnt film at pinewood studios this stupidity could end.
