Thoughts on The Force Awakens...One Day Later - Star Wars The Force Awakens Spoiler Review

I have already reviewed the film, which you can find right here - Star Wars The Force Awakens Movie Review

But now I am going to give my thoughts on the film after having a day to take it all in and even think about the film in detail and find some of the things that bother me about the film. I will be looking at the more negative side of things, so take in mind that I still really enjoy the movie and plan of seeing it again.

So as the perspective of a fan of Star Wars I always want to get sucked into the universe and know as much as I can about the world and the state of the galaxy when these new films are happening.

SPOILERS!!!!

I have made a list of questions and even problems that I have for the film that I have with the film and would like to see improved upon in the future movies. These are just a few that I can think of currently that I have had problems with the film.

If a lot of these questions are answered in the next film I think I will be able to let it go more and the same goes for the problems I have for the film. You can definitely tell that The Force Awakens is trying to recreate the feel of all three original trilogy movies in one to try and go somewhere new in the next one.

Questions:

What happened between those 30 years?
How is The First Order Funded?
What is the Resistance? Is is separate from the Republic?
Is Finn even relevant going forward?
Are there others in the galaxy that have the force?
Why would The First Order build another Death Star like weapon again after failing previously twice??? and why wouldn't they hide it???
How is Rey able to master the force so quickly? Even know tricks that she probably has no knowledge existed?

Problems & A Couple of Nitpicks:

Poe Dameron set to the side for Han Solo
Kylo Ren (post reveal) is seen as a weak, emotional, cry baby
Kylo Ren is nonredeemable
Villains are over the top or made to be jokes in the film No emotional weight in the film
Nostalgia comes off as repeating rather than a homage
Great characters, but no character arcs

5 Films I Am Looking Forward To For The Rest of 2015

The year is already approaching its end phase we are starting to get into the award season of movies. But there are still a few movies coming out for the rest of the year that I am still looking forward to seeing.

5. Boruto: Naruto The Movie

This is the latest Naruto movie and has already become the most popular Naruto film ever over seas. It just might possibly be the last Naruto movie we get to see in a while. Its coming here to the US in October and I can't wait to see it.

4. Spectre

The latest James Bond film and I really enjoyed Skyfall and this very much feels like a sequel to that film. I think I am looking forward to seeing what style and visuals they use in the film because Skyfall was definitely a step up in the looks.

3.The Martian

I still don't know anything about this film, other than its stars Matt Damon and is directed by Ridley Scott who's doing another Sci-Fi film. It looks very interesting and I can't wait to see what happens in the film.

2. Hunger Games Mokingjay Part 2

This is the final Hunger Games films and I even skipped Part 1 so I can watch both films back to back. I have already read the final book in the series but I am curious to see how they approach the final book.

1. Star Wars The Force Awakens

I think me along with a lot of other people are looking forward to this movie. There isn't much to say other than I will most likely be seeing this movie multiple times.

What movies are you looking forward to? Are there any movies that are not on my list that you want to see?
