Absolutely awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome movie! Loved every second of it!
One small nit-pick and a few questions about the plot
Nitpick- Wouldn't the energy being sucked out of a sun wreck havoc on the solar system it is in, especially if they removed all of the energy from it? I just figured that would kind of throw the systems gravity for a loop.
Obviously I can accept it, just curious about it.
Questions!
1.)We don't know when Fin was abducted to be a stormtrooper. He said, "That's the only name they ever gave me" which means he could be somebody else completely...maybe the son of a certain swashbuckling buddy of Han Solo's.
2.) How did Ren end up with Vader's mask? Luke burned it on Endor so either he went back and got it, or stole it from Luke during his uprising (which seems unlikely, at least to me).
3.) Stormtrooper armor hasn't improved much in 60 years. Somebody on the First Order's Higher Headquarters needs to staff up a package and put together a good powerpoint explaining the virtues of Storm Trooper masks being able to filter out poisonous gas along with smoke. Also, if you are going to build a planet sized super weapon you think you would divert some R&D dollars for a type of armor that can take at least one blaster hit instead of armor that apparently dissipates the blast straight into your body and kills you on contact.
4.) Finally, how did the empire create a weapon that can stop lightsaber blows? Fin beat on a stormtroopers baton and nothing happened. That didn't make much sense to me since a lightsaber is essentially a laser (right?)
Seeing it again on the 22nd and the 25th! So many little things to find in the movie, love it!
