I'm saying you're bad at The Internet. If TFA "repaired" it, then it wasn't damaged "irreparably." Soooo, learn English? The Prequels nearly destroyed everything that was made good by the original trilogy, TFA and Rogue One have repaired the damaged caused by the Prequels by making star wars excellent again,TFA and Rogue One destroy the horrid prequels, this is not even up for discussion, the whole universe knows this apart from 4 hates on this board that have migrated over from the old IMDB board I wasn't talking to you, and I don't care how many nimrods share your retarded opinion or how much money Disney makes from these dumb movies, as I own Disney stock and will profit off a piece of your admission price anyway. It doesn't make you right, or TFA any better. Rogue was pretty good; not a ton of big-picture complaints about that movie, apart from its general superfluousness. The prequels were awesome, incredible movies that made a ton of money when they came out and are-- according to your weird, autistic view of the world -- thus "successful." They will continue to be vindicated by history, despite what a few internet trolls from Jagoff Letter Media and their sycophantic followers have to say about it.

This is how we love and know our prequel haters: Always as clumsy as they are stupid. If you can laugh at it, it will save you from the agony of feeling utterly embarrassed by their inane outings.

Friends, foes, dudes: Some amongst us seem to be oblivious to what TFA really is. Beware! Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. Let us never let that happen again! Thus, remember:
1. Rip Off: Within the Saga TFA is the least original and creative entry by far; this in a series primarily known and famous for its imagination:
- TFA rehashes 90% of ANH's plot beats, the rest is OT (father-son conflict; Emperor etc) and some former EU elements; the PT world building is mostly ignored;
- TFA uses locations, designs and vehicles from previous films, but is hardly adding anything new (even BB-8 stems from old drawings, other things such as Kylos sabre or outfit are from EU materials);
- The World Building and exposition is shoddy/non-existent: We do not get any idea how and why after RotJ we now have a Bigger, Bader & Dumber Empire again, or what the FO is and how the Republic and the Resistance work (I know: "Kids don't care", but grownups do...!);
- All of this is resulting in a stale and stagnant, seemingly shrinking universe ("Shrinking Universe" complaint);
2. CHARACTERS: the character portrayals and actions are incongruent with their character backgrounds;
- This includes racial stereotyping (mostly with Finn: "Droid Pease", runaway slave motive who is given a name by white dude, a black guy tasered by dog-like droid, while being accused of theft by white female, drinks with animals and is starngeled a lot, black guy turns out the janitor etc);
- Blatant Mary Sue writing, which is the writing’s central problem as it sucks out competence and believability of characters and events (e.g., infamous Rey/Leia hug scene);
- Old canon characters act out of character and their former arcs and development are ignored; they only serve to glorify/legitimize the new characters;
* fun fact: that even applies to spaceships, e.g., the Millenium Falcon should be the most famous, recognizable, priceless museum-piece in the universe, but is just standing around like "garbage";
- characters are overpowered or too weak, resulting in Video Game like scenes,
*such as Poe shooting down more than 10 Tie Fighters plus ground groups within one take, or
* Rey saving the day in any situation with untrained ad hoc abilities, including Force power-ups, especially when defeating the main antagonist;
* The (trained-from-childhood) soldier Finn is just an incompetent black bumbling fool, and he is finally revealed to be a space janitor (sanatation worker) – he seems mainly to be there to show that other characters are superior - e.g., cannot fly ships, cannot operate turrets, cannot understand languages, cannot fight, must be rescued all the time etc;
* Some characters such as Kylo are inconsistent, first extremely powerful, then pathetically weak (when facing the untrained scavenger Rey). His inner conflict is poorly developed: e.g., he actually prays to Vader to protect him from the light (!) - thus the guy who is famous for having been redeemed from evil, and having destroyed the Sith/dark side, and who is spooking around as a light side Force ghost...
- The father/son relationship is badly developed; we never see Han/Ben interact before as father and son, or get an understanding that Kylo is really struggling with having to kill his father – his motivation for going dark side is murky at best;
- The bad guys are poorly underwritten and just pale imitations of previous baddies (Snoke-Emperor, Hux-Tarkin, Captain Phasma-BobaFett)
3. STORYLINE/SCRIPT:
- The main story line is broken: first it's about getting a map and finding Luke, then it's suddenly about destroying Death Star III (no inner connection) - the map-plot is then suddenly resolved by a deus ex machina event (R2 conveniently awakening, having the map and nobody ever thought of looking in Luke's left-behind droid R2...);
- The scrip excels at creating logical inconstancies/plot holes, (e.g. Han taking BB-8 into Maz's cantina, resulting in it’s destruction), deus ex machina events, convenient coincidents, and plain old bad writing - e.g., the sword fight starts with a plot hole and ends with a deus ex machina earth hole (chasm ridiculously and conveniently opening to save Kylo from Rey), in between lies bad writing violating common sense, the established lore and Force rules.
- The dialog is badly writing and laughable (got a boyfriend cute boyfriend?), often just created to create cheap lowbrow humor; - All about Death Star 3, including physics and its workings, is blatantly unoriginal and stupid;
- The map subplot is beyond absurd and convoluted (since when do you define destinations in space by directions but not coordinates - but let's not even get started on this!). 4. EXECUTION: - Lot of the CGI is shoddy, the dogfights look like video games, characters like Snoke, the tentacle monsters or Maz look fake;
- The direction is rushed (relentless pacing);
- There is a propensity for overacting, especially with the new characters.
- The action scenes and set pieces are just adequate – there is nothing remotely as iconic as in the OT (DS trench run, AT-AT attack, speeder bike race/DS attack) or even the PT (pod race, Clone War/Geonosis battle, Coruscant battle etc);
- The music is just adequate, like the film lacking the old inspiration for the most part;
- Many many nitpicks/ ”lens flares”
Never again please!
And still no one has countered those points with anything else than " TFA is awesome, the prequels suck"

And still no one has countered those points with anything else than " TFA is awesome, the prequels suck" denial and deflection are reasonable responses with respect to TFA.
Why put lipstick on a pig, in the end it will only look like a pig with lipstick anyway? Only thing one can do with TFA is to drug oneselve to the point the brain shuts down, and the pig finally looks hot.
And who could reasonaly ask those TFA-lovers to sober up and acknoledge that instead of a hot broad they keep banging a pig? It's not all bad: The pig will keep your bed warm, does not talk back, and might one day even get house- or or at least bed-trained.

which EU materials are Kylo Ren's lightsaber from, specifically? cartoons, they branded them "cross guard lightsabers", especially the dark horse comics (Clone Wars - technically not canon anymore). These sabers were always a bit silly. There are ample of pictures when you google it. One link re the origin (non exhausive) www.dailydot.com/parsec/star-wars-force-awakens-new-lightsaber/

Jesus, McTristancoolaid, what does that have to do with anything? evidently everything. But what has your post to do with anything? Wait a minute, what do you mean?
