[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 7301354, member: 54629"] I've seen it twice now. Left the theater the first time feeling somewhat dissatisfied, but some things clicked into place after mulling it over for a while. More of it came together on the second viewing, which I enjoyed a whole lot more. - Leia in space was terrible. One of the worst things I've ever seen in a Star Wars movie, and at first I couldn't figure out why Carrie would've agreed to something so cheesy, but then I remembered that it's Carrie. - Yoda told Luke that Rey didn't need what was in the "Jedi texts", but he neglected to mention that Rey had already absconded with them. (Took me the second viewing to be sure about that.) - Poe's arc was confusing to me the first time, but after the second viewing, it made a lot more sense. He clearly goes from being a hot-headed, mutinous pilot to a proper leader, which is why Leia defers to him at the end. - Part of me wanted to be offended by all the obvious torch-passing stuff that was going on in this movie, but I found I didn't really mind it so much the second time. - The porgs are so adorable! - I still want to know Snoke's backstory. Apparently Lucasfilm has figured it out, so hopefully they'll reveal it at some point. The only bit I've been able to learn so far is that he comes from the Unknown Regions. - I wasn't sure if maybe the thing about Rey's parents being junk dealers was another lie/misdirect from Ben, but given that the dark side didn't show her her parents either has me thinking that he was telling the truth. She's not a Skywalker (or anyone else important). - Phasma is a complete waste of [s]Brienne of Tarth's[/s] Gwendoline Christie's talents. That said, whadda ya wanna bet she shows up again in IX? I mean, she somehow survived the destruction of the Starkiller Base (after being dumped in a trash compactor), so surely she can survive falling into a fireball. - Did I mention that the porgs are awesome? - The "caretakers" were a bit on the too silly/extraneous side for me, especially since they just seem to appear out of nowhere the first time we see them. - I *loved* the bit where Luke tricks Rey with the leaf. And the bit at the beginning where Poe makes fun of Hux. [/QUOTE]
