Oh, come on, even the way the dialogue is written… I mean, it’s Potter. I’m watching a Harry Potter movie.
This is shot exactly how a similar scene was shot between Harry and Voldemort in Goblet of Fire.

I was going to say, “Well, everyone’s older,” but then C3PO popped up. How are they going to deal with Miss Fisher’s passing?
They haven’t written Han consistently. He’s already gone from a fun-loving antihero to a serious guy within a few minutes!
Oh, and pseudo-Han’s back. How exactly, if he blew up?

Originally Poe Dameron (Named for Cameron Poe in Con Air) Was a goner, but they changed their minds, I think because of Oscar Isaac. Yeah, I forget why. Never mind

Exposition, because it seems like they can’t write these characters consistently.
R2’s great, but I audibly laughed when C3PO said he’s been in “low-power mood” since Luke disappeared. I don’t know, the concept seems so silly.
Speaking of silly, this awful villain is somehow even more awful without his mask. Did anyone think of perhaps casting an actor who looked a bit like Harrison Ford or Carrie Fisher?

He looks more like Harrison Ford than Darth Horseface does. I’m disappointed with how much Potter is in this. Not because I dislike Potter, but it’s so obvious. I’m even more disappointed with how they’re writing Mr. Ex-Stormtrooper as a fraidy-cat now, when he was lots of fun early on. Oh, OK, the spoiled brat is throwing a temper tantrum again. Hey, is that Ackbar?

R2 has a section of missing map. If you’re the Empire, er First Order, you send droid scouts to every inch of that uncharted territory til you find Mr Starkiller. Lame!

Carrie Fisher in this reminds me of my grandma. Her mom, Debbie Reynolds, did when she was a bit older as well. Not sure why: Debbie Reynolds looked more like my grandma, so maybe that’s what I’m seeing.

That’s why they wrote a lead villain this moronic!

There was this light-fixture-thing that looked like Vader–which I’m sure was intentional, but which seems a pointless addition. So they’re rescuing another gal from another Death Star? They’re sneaking around just like they did in the original. “Is there a garbage shoot? Trash compactor?” How do these people know everything? It’s getting annoying, and doubly so because they keep emphasizing it!

So this is supposed to be Luke and his father, or Vader and Obi-Wan? Except Horseface can’t emote.
IT’S A TRAP!

It’s a goddam trap, and it’s so dumb. Is Han a moron?
You’re killing Han like this? Like this? God almighty! Sorry, this scene really irritates me.
Chewie, just rip this loser apart. He’s the worst villain I’ve seen in a long time.

Aha! President Ackbar™’s avatar! What’s up with the forest now? I hate this villain. Hate him. He’s the worst part of the movie, by far. He’s a complete joke–actually, he was better as a joke in that SNL sketch.

The fight looks cool, though you can tell when no one’s experienced with swordplay.
Horseface had that long opportunity to kill her, but did he? No. Why? Because he’s a little brat, not any real kind of villain.

Whom did Chewie put on the stretcher? I thought Han had fallen down the shaft to his doom, continuing a Star Wars tradition of characters falling down shafts to their dooms.

Thoughts on Rey? She's been quite the polarizing character!
