    I like that in the opening scene bombers drop bombs in space. Where there is no gravity.


  2. meh, it's too late for me to start getting picky on the science behind it
  3. There is also sound in space.
  4. So just returned from cinema and I really liked it... of course, there were a few wtf moments and cliches but it was in all episodes (yes even in 4-6) so I expected that...
    So to me it was Star Wars how I like it
  5. What are your opinions on the prequels? I like them very much, Revenge Of The Sith is my favourite Star Wars movie.
  6. They have the best light saber fights and ep. III really is great.

    Gravity is everywhere...they even have it in waves now
  8. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. In fact, it's probably the first Star Wars movie that actually kept me interested from start to finish. I did not really care to watch TFA multiple times, but I will definitely be watching this one again in theaters.

    And to the people who say TLJ ruined their childhood memories of the original trilogy, I'd like to challenge them to rewatch the original trilogy. Last time I did, the only one interesting enough to keep me on the couch the entire time was The Empire Strikes Back.

    So this movie could have done one of two things. It could have pandered to the nostalgia fanatics who bitched about TFA or it could have taken a risk to distance itself from the previously established Star Wars universe and I'm so glad it did the latter. The biggest issue I had with TFA was Snoke and the fact it was setting up the main antagonist to be a puppet for somebody else, just like how Darth Vader was a puppet for somebody else, just like how Darth Maul and Count Dooku were puppets for somebody else. TLJ sets up Episode 9 to be a conflict between two Force users who have no true mentors.

    We also get the most coherent explanation of what the Force actually is in the entire series, one that does not include BS midichlorians. Additionally, we get to see the Force used in creative ways that make it much more impressive than simply pushing/pulling things, performing acrobatics, and simple parlor tricks. The Force connection between Kylo and Rey added an extra degree of interaction between these two characters that makes their relationship incredibly complex.

    Finally, the nostalgia fanatics out there better know that Luke's ability to project and image of himself using the Force is straight out of the Expanded Universe.

    If we want to get super technical, no gravity in space means no gravity in space ships yet somehow everyone in the Star Wars universe is able to walk in space ships.

    Well, I could believe that somewhere in the future - or in some other time in some other galaxy - some kind of gravity generator has been invented...

    A little harder to comprehend is a galaxy where all - or almost all? - planets that we encounter have more or less the same gravity conditions. Still, it is, of course, possible within an infinite number of galaxies...and perhaps that is just the case...


    Anyway, looking forward to the 2nd viewing
