I think he's an idiot too. He keeps changing his angle as soon as someone points something out that highlights how silly he's being. He ignores responses and then takes others comments as his own the next time he's trying to make a point.

I'm a hardcore fan (not a fucking competition though) I don't need to brag about it or assume my opinion on something star wars related is gospel just because I'm mad about the franchise.

I loved this movie.

Yep I agree. Movie was awesome. I've been waiting for a long time as a crazy fan. And it did satisfy me. Rey is sooo cute! :wub:
People say Rey is definitely from skywalker line but I think she is not related. Yeah many similarities like she is good at repairing stuff. She is a good pilot. And she used force without training.
Huge mystery :)

ok something just occurred to me

the superweapon got its power by draining the sun. I remember them saying specifically "when the sun is drained, the weapon will be ready to fire".

then at the end of the movie, they blow up the thermal oscillator at the very last second when it was just about to fire. That means that by that time, the sun was already drained.

So the 5 planets they were supposedly saving from being blown up are still pretty much fucked because they have no sun. They are just gonna go careening into space due to having no gravitational mass to revolve around.

What defines a hardcore fan?

I absolutely loved the original trilogy and can't even count how many times I've watched them. Does that make me a hardcore fan?


not sure if hardcore fan, but
watched all and 4,5,6, repeatedly
read the books
read the comics
played kotor 1 and 2 multiple times


though never been to any cons due to time/work

thoroughly enjoyed this movie though I wish it could've kept going
it felt so short lol

i enjoyed the movie, thought a few parts could've been much improved/more badass

wasn't quite as good as it was hyped but still an 8.5/10 from me and definitely worth a watch

First of all, the star drainer clearly want draining the star in the system that was going to be destroyed. Secondly, the star reformed after the planet could no longer contain the energy, it blew up into a star. Slightly displaced but still functional.

Either way you slice it, that part would never work scientifically. "Slightly displacing" the star to the orbit of another planet (one that's relatively far away, judging by the snow) would wreck havoc on the orbits of every planet in the system, most likely shooting them off into space or crashing into the newly-formed sun. Besides, while they were siphoning the sun they would already mess everything up long before the planet exploded. It would also increase the mass of their planet by several orders of magnitude, collapsing it into a super-dense core and crushing everyone on the surface into a pancake.

Stuff like that is pure fiction and cannot be explained using our understanding of physics.
