SpoilerLOL!!! Could get awkies if it turns out they are actually related! I think Kylo lied about her parents
The Force Awakens pretty much was a rehash of the 1st original film which was really disapointing for me.
SpoilerMy only ship in the movie is Poe / Finn. Like, Rose is fine. But I didn't feel like she had any romantic chemistry with Poe.
I can't see myself going to see the Han Solo story or the reboot of the series. I feel like The Last Jedi was my last new Star Wars movie.

Sadly though, Star Wars is a franchise in which I don't really see such couplings happening, and now that Rose is in the picture, I find the possibility of this fading even more so Quote from: Majesty on January 06, 2018, 11:38:40 AMI can't see myself going to see the Han Solo story or the reboot of the series. I feel like The Last Jedi was my last new Star Wars movie.Oh, I haven't yet heard of a reboot. It does sound somewhat interesting to me, though I must admit that this is interest mingled with fear... I don't really see why a reboot is needed.I'm also hesitant about the Han Solo story... I'll see once how I'll actually feel about it once it hits the movies, but for now I can't really see such a story being something I'd enjoy if the title guy is visually not the same as who we've got to know from the series. I mean I understand Mr. Ford is 75, he obviously can't play youg Solo anymore (and I don't think he'd like to), but still...
By the way, am I the only one who wonders where on Earth did Kylo manage to obtain that Vader helmet? Yes, we already know there are Indiana Joneses robbing tombs wrecks in that galaxy far, far away, too, but who and why would have ever picked that burnt helmet up (I wonder how much food it would have worth on Jakku), and how it got to him afterwards? Where was it until the point (sometime in the not so far past) where Kylo suddenly found it important to own it? Do they have SpacEBay where "trash for me, might be a gem for you"-type of stuff can be auctioned off, and if they do, how much time dear Kylo spent checking it before someone finally put it up for auction? And how does he know it is not a fakie?
SpoilerI dragged my husband to see it again last night after seeing it earlier in December. It certainly has flaws (definitely could have used a trim here and there, for sure) but the good parts are really, really good - namely anything with Rey and Kylo Ren. Them I wanted more of...much much more. I am totally, absolutely on board the reylo ship after this movie. But I've always been a sucker for that kind of dynamic, and the actors sell it completely. I also loved all the scenes with Luke, and I didn't think, considering how they explain what happened with Ben Solo and his other students, that it was unreasonable that he would have cut himself off from the force, etc. But that's me. I don't find the OT to be the masterpieces that some people do, because I didn't watch them growing up and have no nostalgia connection. For what it's worth, my husband is definitely on the more negative side of the spectrum, having grown up with the OT. He does agree, though, that the Rey / Kylo Ren interactions were definitely the best parts.I can honestly say it's the first Star Wars movie that has really gripped me. Here's hoping they don't backtrack in IX because of the very vocal negative fans and undo everything Rian Johnson did in VIII.
