Ren was beating Rey easily until he lost his erection due to Rey beginning to control her emotions through use of the light side, which is what stumped him earlier in their mind reading battle. His insecurity about his own powers (despite obviously being strong) is his weakness, and he did not have his boner pill (helmet) to get his erection back. Once he got it in his head that she was going to do something to best him, he was bested.

The fight is not about their physical skill with a saber, but about their attitudes & confidence in the force.

Ren is a good character. That was a good fight. It had a narrative to it that was missing since the OT.

While the theming and design in general was great in TFA, I been thinking about Kylo's helmet. Its loving awesome. First of all it cribs off the Revan design which was great in KOTOR, and it looks very cool in the movie. The voice modulation is great. But where it loving KILLS is the sound design & weight they lend to it. It THUNKS to the ground every time he takes it off. It stews in Vader's ashes. Kylo puts on this rock, feels the weight of his perceived destiny on him, and is afraid he is inadequate to the task.

So Phasma is coming back for the next one, do we know if Maz is? I really liked her character and Im pissed that her cantina theme wasnt included in the soundtrack. Of all the effects in the movie shes the one that looks least likely to 'hold up' 10 years down the line, but dangit if I don't love weird old lady alien with magnifying eyeglasses.

I don't know if it is ever mentioned in any of the movies, but at least in the books (and even the new Disney books) it gets frequently mentioned that Tie Fighters don't have any kind of real protection or escape system for the pilots. It makes me wonder if:

A. They gave this Tie Fighter ejector seats since the characters have plot armor and they didn't really think about it
B. They stole a black tie fighter, so maybe it was a special Tie for officers or something that has an ejector
C. The new order is smaller and pilots aren't easily replaceable so they gave their Tie Fighters ejector seats

they stole a special forces tie fighter, which has 2 seats and extra armor and other poo poo. Normal tie fighters were 1 man death traps.

They were really cutting it close, but Luke's beard finally came in fully on Dec 15th and they were able to, thankfully, wrap production and send the film out to the movie theaters next day express for the Dec 17 opening showings

There's certain amount resemblance between the two. That's very interesting when you consider that in the early concept stages, Maz was a 1,000 year old force user, which almost sounds just like Snoke.

I'm pretty sure at least one of the original drafts of TFA had a montage of the saber making its way to Maz. I recall a scene described as a warlord riding some giant creature into a battle using it.

I wouldnt be surprised if something like that showed up in the next 2 movies.

cargohills posted:

The original blasters were all based on WW2 weapons. Much better that way than generic sci-fi guns.

None of the TFA blasters are 'generic sci fi guns'. A lot of the TFA guns are based off of AR bodies. Basically the WW2 equivalent for 2015 ie guns used in the gulf war. They looked fine? You can even see the magazine well for the AR body in Finn's gun, like you could see the magazine well of the old stens in the OT star wars blasters. The TFA stormtrooper guns are the old models but with 'modern' accouterments like polymer body & molded stock.

Finn's is infact very similar to the old A280 blaster rifle the rebels used in ESB & ROTJ, which was also based off the M-16 body. And in the movie they are considered republic surplus, outdated tech, given they are upgrades of weapons used 30 years ago and now outdated, that makes sense! Poe uses the same one Finn does but with an extended stock and it looks nooice

TFA followed the gun design aesthetics of the PT & OT pretty much by the numbers. A lot of the more outlandish looking guns are all on background characters that you can only really get a good look at in the visual dictionary, and a lot of them are very cool I wish they got some screen time.

Why does the new stormtrooper blaster have both a fixed stock and an adjustable stock?

Swag. (also in the movie most of the blasters dont have the fixed stock)

In the visual dictionary the fixed stock is a removable customization & the 'folding stock' is just a collapsible grip.

Pretty sure he also says it at Eadu (where she is calling him Papa like at the very beginning of the movie). Then the plans are named Stardust and Jyn is like STARDUST...ITS THAT ONE FOR SURE.

The scene where they list off her various crimes?

Listing her crimes is less cool than showing them. Imo what coulda been cool is after the rogue one title we cut to a montage of jyn growing up under saw doing crime and learning to be a terrorist (like 12 year old jyn building an ied that blows up a troop carrier) intercut with mads working on the death star and looking stoic thinking about jyn. End it with saw abandoning her during an ambush/raid gone wrong and her ending in jail with the same scenes of her getting busted out. Change the cassian scene to the guy knowing jyns where abouts and stick in between the two prison scenes.

I think it would have been better than the awkward multiple quick scenes. Just imo tho i still liked the movie alot.
