Here's hoping that Old Ack gets a proper Mon Cal funeral service in episode 9 He will be taken back to his home world of Dac... Wrapped in a ceremonial seaweed wrap And fed to a whale That's how you honor a fallen hero in our culture! None of that will happen. He wasn't even called by name when he died. Another good character just tossed aside by RJ. Not true. Some woman specifically mentioned his name when she said that everyone but Leia died. That's how I got confirmation.

When this moment happened in the movie one of the first things I thought was "the Ackbar account on IMDbv2.0 won't like this". That's awesome! That thought also crossed my mind when Luke stabbed that fish.

Is there even any poignancy to the moment? None. He may as well have been an ensign. Less reverent than Porkins' death in ANH. Barely any lines and largely in the background. *points to Rian* This is the guy you want helming your new trilogy, Kathleen?

I was afraid for this. I opened up a topic about this on the MCU board (where I roam and rule btw). The Clan of Calamari are without their spiritual leader now. Permanantly trapped. OMG.

This shows how stupid the writing/directing tag team of Abrams and Johnson are! They kill off Han Solo in a way that he doesn't get to use his iconic blaster. And they kill off Ackbar without sensing a trap! Are you kidding me!?!

Too out of character! The only explanation is it was an LMD!

Not only did they kill him lamely, they gave his glorious death 2 a purple haired freak in an evening dress during a battle! Ackbar should of rammed the Uber Destroyer!

Too out of character! The only explanation is it was an LMD! LMD? Life Model Decoy. Readers think you're dead when you're really not. Looks and acts just like you. Indistinguishable from the person. Nick Fury is a big believer in them.

He is one with the OT. Morn him do not. Miss him do not. Remember how he lived not died.
