New star wars

[The Midnight]

I really liked her. The biggest difference between stage acting and acting for film is that in film everything is so subtle; you have to communicate everything through your eyes. She did that. I thought she was great.

Between Rey and Furiosa in Fury Road, we're seeing some great female protagonists in action movies. It's refreshing.

Yup

VERY BIG SPOILER DONT READ FURTHER................................


Anyone else a little disappointed with Kilo Ren. I thought he was going to be a bad *** and he got trashed by a completely untrained Jedi who just found out she was a Jedi. Hope to god Luke goes bad. Maybe he can kill Ren as vengeance for Solo and it turns him darkside or something. Am I the only one who didn't like that character and how weak he seemed?

I think that's kind of the point: he's not Vader, as much as he would like to be (and as much as the audience wants him to be). The original Star Wars starts with an antagonist who is already formed; Abrams said that his movie was meant to involve one who was in the middle of his journey to the Dark Side.

Poe Dameron is the new Han solo I guess. That's fine. But I liked Han better.

Can't compete with Solo.

I was a bit disappointed I must admit when he lifted his helmet and he didn't look anything like I expected .. I.e. the bad *** as you put it.

But my thinking is the Director wanted to keep him multi dimensional and not your typical villain... I.e. more human and has that softer side too.

Yeah, when he lifted his helmet and revealed the angsty teenager that he is, it was lolz worthy. But I think that's the point. His inner struggle is embodied through the strike contrast between the whiny bitch under the mask, and the more bad *** villain he seems to be before that.

If I understand from the movie Ren was turned 15 years before the start of the 7th movie. He should be all powerful by now!!

Haha.. it was like a One Direction member just walked off the stage and straight onto a Star Wars film set... I mean at least do something with that hair!!!

I don't remember them saying it had been 15 years. But it's pretty clear that he's still being trained by Snoke. And he looks like he's in his twenties to me.

They talk about it how Luke's Jedi school was destroyed 15 years earlier and Luke goes into exile due to Luke losing Ren to the darkside

I'll have to watch for that. If so, how old was Ren at the time? He looks really young to me when his mask isn't on.
