Kylo Ren is my new crush! Weird huh?

That's the one character I didn't like and not because of his actions but I just didn't like him as a villain

I'm surprised! I actually thought the actor did a good job, and that the character was fairly compelling.

The only one I didn't care for much was General Hux. It's like he was midway btwn the typical "faceless" bad guy generals and a character that they were going to develop. Meh.

I'm mostly disappointed with Captain Phasma, not how she played her, she just needs more screen time
Favorite new characters in order
1.- Rey
2.- Poe
3.- Fin
favorite new actor John Boyega, he's absolutely amazing, he's doing so many pop up appearances at screenings, and meeting with all the fans, and fanboying like the rest of us
Maybe once we learn a bit more about Kylo I'll like him more?

Yeah. My kids especially were disappointed that Phasma's role wasn't larger. They're hoping for more of her in VIII. We were also all big instant fans of Rey, Poe and Fin!

Agree! Plus it really bothered me that I had NO IDEA how old he was supposed to be (all the mains really). Like they could be anywhere from teens to late 20's!!

Totally weird, but I couldn't get over him being a Weasley!! I kept thinking, "Bill, that's not how your parents raised you!"

I so wanted more Captain Phasma, too!! I was prepared to be a total Captain Phasma fan girl and...nothing.

I read one review that said that Kylo Ren was too whiney - Um, Hello?!?! Have you seen the rest of the movies? They're all like one big whine fest!!!

To keep this vaguely on topic, do we know when they're going to stop putting the Force Awakens scene on every ride of Star Tours. I'm not there until Feb, and I can handle one ST ride so I'm hoping to see it.

Yes!! He's a Weasley that's how I felt too
I'm not sure when they will go back to all random, sorry

WHOA he was a Weasley? Wow am I behind - did not pick up on that

We walked out with we love Finn, Rey and BB-8 - did not like Kylo for multiple reasons - one of which was he reminded us of Snape but in a wimpy way somehow I don't know - not a fan. Also really liked Poe. I did not expect to be such a huge fan of Finn - but we all really really liked him!

I didn't get a Snape vibe from him... but we're not big Harry Potter people -- saw the films once each (some maybe twice) -- so he probably wouldn't come to mind.

saw the movie today - AWESOME! Kind of cool to see it on my birthday! Think we're going to see it again on Christmas

Happy Birthday!

My nephew turned 10 yesterday and his birthday party consisted of watching SWVII with 11 of his classmates.

We went to see the movie yesterday lovely it. We are planning on going again next week. That is my order of favorite characters was well. Love Rey very strong character and very well played by Daisy. Would have love more Poe and Phasma screen time. Maybe in episode 8? I also love BB8 really cute

I actually really didn't like Kylo either at first - then after the movie I started looking him up, and then I started thinking about the character more, and I don't want to say anything more for fear of spoiling a general vibe of the character for anyone! But, then I decided he is my favorite. He isn't just another Vader recreation, and I really liked that. I always did like the bad boys...

However, I am in love with BB-8. So I guess they are tied.

1. Kylo Ren / BB-8
2. Rey

I did really like Rey more than I thought I would. I was never a huge Leia fan in truth. I was more of an R2-D2 and Han Solo gal. Harrison Ford back in the day was quite the cutie. I did like Finn, but for some reason his character kinda irked me in a lot of scenes. No idea why, he was quite funny. But I absolutely love Boyega. You said it right when you called him a fanboy. The guy is equally as excited as any of us are!

Side note on my love of BB-8 -- If anyone happens to come across BB-8 print leggings please post here! I was thinking for the dark side challenge, one of the races I will wear leggings with the orange circle print of his on them.

 

[Music City Mama]

I was surprised at how much I loved BB-8 given how much I love R2-D2 and I didn't think I could love another droid that much!

I can't really discuss my feelings on the Kylo Ren character without giving spoilers, so I'll just wait on that. Btw, when can we openly discuss the film on here? The first of the year?

My kids want to see it again, but this time in 3D. It wouldn't be IMAX 3D, just 3D in the "Big D" theater. Has anyone seen it in regular 3D who thinks it's worth it?

I would think after the 1st of the year we should be ok but lets wait till after Christmas at lest as I know a few that will not see it then. My daughter will not see it till the 27th and it is KILLING ME not to tell her anything about the movie. But that is ok, I'll be with her when she sees it!

 

[yulilin3]

Is everyone Ok with openly discussing the movie January 1st? anyone that doesn't want us doing that let us know

January 1st is great. Watching it on Christmas Day!

Even CMs have set the 1st as the go ahead day ~ gives them enough time to see the movie even with their 60-70 hour crazy work weeks!

 

[cvjpirate]

Just in case you think everyone has seen the movie...I think Jan 1st is a good date.

I didn't care for Kylo Ren either. It wasn't the actor I didn't care for. It was the character.

The only one I didn't care for much was General Hux. It's like he was midway btwn the typical "faceless" bad guy generals and a character that they were going to develop. Meh.

Did you see the meme of Hux and Han of the Southern Isles? They look a lot alike.
