I don’t think anyone’s mentioned just how cool Maz Kanata was in this film. When she blasted off at the end of her scene, I had a huge smile on my face.
I love Maz and hope she’s in Solo, as rumored.
Oh yes...yes. GREAT cameo. I loved that she was using one of the Rebel troopers' blasters from Episode IV. [Reply]

Are you referring to Episode III? Where hamfisted direction resulted in Palpatine skewering two Jedi Masters standing around like they were padawans? :-)

Just stop.
The fighting is pedistrian brute force no stylistic approach at all. Episode one did that better and with more emotion [Reply]

The issue for a ton of fans is TFA left a bunch plot lines that looked to be set up for big reveals if you spent the last 2 years watching videos on youtube about the lore of star wars.
This was a pretty disappointing luke's reasoning for leaving is all over the place.
Rey being Rey random takes what was special and fun about her and ruins it at least for me and ton of other fans
and Snoke dying with no backstory is a crime. [Reply]
Rian Johnson managed to fuck up value for the best good and bad character in the film. He’s a terrible fit for this and Disney should have realized it earlier. [Reply]

Rian Johnson said today that Rey's parentage isn't confirmed and that Chris Terrio and JJ Abrams have liberty to do whatever they want with the character.
"Now as we know in these movies, you know the whole idea of a certain point of view comes into play and as you know I’m not involved in writing the next movie. JJ [Abrams] and Chris [Terrio] are writing it so, I want to make it clear I’m not sure how it’s going to get resolved," he adds. "For me the important part was saying it was an emotionally honest revelation, I feel like it, I don’t know, I believed it." [Reply]

And at this point with the fan blacklash over this Choice I would JJ is more than likely going to make Rey Related to some one in the next star wars.
