Star Wars Appreciation **Spoilers Ahead**

Thought it was enjoyable but a significant rehash of the previous films. Saw it with my girlfriend who hadn't seen any Star Wars films and she loved it.

I found Daisy Ridley's accent annoying, the posh accent didn't seem to fit the character. I also couldn't help but mentally think of Kylo Ren as Jacen.

Just to add, having just seen When We Were Young, it made sense when we discovered who Ben was

Characters in the SW universe with English accents have generally been either Empire... or Kenobi. Possible lineage?

British baddies is hardly unique to SW. There's still an insecurity in the US that George III is hiding behind a bush waiting to come back.

Watched Star Wars VII again this evening, but with my daughters +1 boyfriend VIP screen at Westfield.

Also got these as a Christmas / Birthday pressie. These were the salt and pepper droids I was looking for...

Never looked in to deleted scenes for the prequels because they were fucking awful.

me neither, I've just yoinked that from Reddit!

Looks OK, hope it doesn't get all MARVEL Agents of Shield... I'll purchase it anyway...

Then the Han Solo movie, right?

Felicity Jones she so purty

I'm not sure I can cope with how excited I am about Donnie Yen being in a Star Wars film.

Like a bit of Forest Whitticakes too.

Looks dark and gritty! I like.

Having missed watching TFA in cinemas and all the buzz surrounding I finally got round to watching the Rogue One trailer and fuck am I excite or what!

Just bumping this if anyone wants to talk about The Last Jedi...

Saw it last night - enjoyed it a lot.

That fight scene with Rey, Kylo, and Snokes Guards was the highlight
