[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;49420327]This just proves that good advertising and hype is all that matters in making money, not like you can get a refund after you've seen it.[/QUOTE]
It was a good movie, if it was bad you would of heard it was shit without having to go see it.
[QUOTE=Fhenexx;49415981]I disagree, I think it was actually far worse than all of the prequels, maybe even the Phantom Menace, just because of how little sense the whole movie makes. Yeah, the special effects and the acting were really good, but everything past the first part of the movie seems to just be a rehash of A New Hope with some really weird backstory [sp]like how the Resistance and the Republic are two separate entities. Why the hell does the Republic, which has a much more powerful military force (as said in the movie) need the tiny ass Resistance to do anything? Why does the First Order, which has a fucking planet full of soldiers, capital ships, and ANOTHER FUCKING DEATH STAR shake in their boots when the Resistance comes over during their raid on that one forest planet with the criminals on it when they only own a dinky little fleet of transporters and some X-Wings?[/sp]
You can talk shit about the prequels all you'd like but at least in the end they felt like they made sense[/QUOTE]
No, they didn't, the story in the prequels for the most part still made no sense at all.
Here's the prequel story summed up:

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;49417011]a new hope begins with an evil empire capturing freedom fighters (led by princess leia), leaving it up to a farmer boy along with a pedal bin, a space hairdresser, and a cowboy to get to the rebel base with the death star plans. after being captured themselves and then rescuing leia they join the rebels and overcome the evil empire by blowing up the death star
in two sentences can you explain to me what happens in the phantom menace
like from memory, you can't use wookiepedia for this you have to try remembering what actually happened in it[/QUOTE]
You can also say it as: An orphaned boy who became radicalized after a military strike kills his family. He is indoctrinated into an ancient religion, joins an insurgent and carries out a terrorist attack killing hundreds of thousands of lifes.
