Initially i thought he was just really bad with the saber but after second viewing i actually think he's quite skilled. He was just really overconfident with his own ability - most of the time he fought one handed, showing no respect to his opponents. He toyed with Finn; side stepping his attack, letting his guard down, turning his back on him etc. Could have finish him off easily but decided to prolong the duel to demonstrate his superiority. Just pure arrogance. He tried the same with Rey and nearly got himself killed.

The only problem i initially had was with Rey who used the Force like a veteran Jedi. But perhaps she too is naturally gifted with the Force like Kylo.

from my observation, Rey is some child prodigy of the force. like Luke & Luke's father, Anakin Skywalker. (She probably didn't know it)

Some of the complaints I've read here is justified with some explanation but most of them just some pointless mindless rant. Mostly because how are some Malaysian thinks, without deep understanding of something..

During my first viewing, I didn't like it much as I hope I would be but upon second viewing I started appreciating some of details, visuals and entertainment this movie bring. Yes, without a doubt this movie isn't flawless but I don't think no movies are. All of them have something wrong with it but the positive of this movie outdone the negative ones. I'm loving it the more I'm watching it. Gonna watch it again on Wednesday on D-Box after IMAX and normal viewing previously.

Harrison Ford was paid £17.6 million pounds by Disney (+ a percentage of the movie earnings).  blink.gif

Daisy Ridley and John Boyega each £300,000 + a percentage of the movie earnings.

Btw, is this real?



OMG if it is ! This version of the Millennium Falcon is crazy expensive!

This movie could easily gross over USD2billion worldwide...

never finished his training with Luke, not yet finish with Snoke..he just an Apprentice..plus he was shot, and I do believe that Rey's capabilities with the force is better than him..she might be a natural..just like Anakin..

while we on this..this is the most interesting turning point for him..he will be much more motivated for episode 8 and 9..

Dude, kylo is supposed to be like a senior Vader or something like that. Granted he got shot but I am sure that he should be better. I mean he did lose to a girl. A girl who only realised her powers within 15 minutes.

It's like u just realize u can play badminton well then u can beat Daren liew in badminton.

The real Darth Vader would be sad.

Dude, he's not even finished his training yet. He's not a fully a dark lord just yet. How can you compare them? He is no Vader, just some wannabe one.

True. Also, he just killed his father, probably mentally unstable. Over-confident. Rey also is no mere passerby either. Easily beaten two harasser by himself previously on Jakku. There are a lot of things you can consider before making this one lame statement man..

who told you Kylo is supposed to be like Vader?

A better analogy should be Rey is probably like the Messi (when he was 16-17 years old) of Force user, now you get it why she can do what she did?

But he commands the new death star. I dunno man, when I see someone is the boss of a death star it should account for something. He should be at least Count Dokku level.

that just proved that you did not pay attention to the movie, since when is he commanding the death star (and it is not even a death star to start with)

Ok not death star. It's something that looks like death star that sucks energy from the sun and destroys planets.

well i am sorry if i sounded condescending, its a base on a planet, Starkiller Base, and the commander is Hux, the one who gave the speech to the stormtroopers before they blew up those planet, but both him and Kylo served Snoke, so in a way, Snoke is the leader

Don't understand all these fuss about VII being a bad movie...

J J Abrams and team has to play it safe. Its all about maximizing Disney investment on SW... U know how many billions they paid for this franchise? This is like the first canon shot towards multiple SW movies and spin off that's to come in near future. This one has to be successful in getting the old fans back and winning new fans.

So wat if recycle storyline? U think Uwe Boll would have done a better job huh?

I agree with you on 2nd viewing.

Many did feel on first viewing there is a sense of dejavu of A New hope. Recycle Luke with Rey. Rescue n trench run, destroy a Death Star then now bigger one in killer base Star.

But I did say to other there were new stuffs introduced but many didn't see i lt or notice much. Perhaps they got sucked in with the basic storyline and with a broad brushstroke says it all the same.

I value the amplified sounds, the clarity of the tie fighter, X wing and the millennium falcon in flight. The boasters and all. There were so many new thing people then to be caught up with the general story outline.

Like you on my second viewing, I don't see much of the mirroring of a NEw hope. It's wasn't in my face nor important. Instead I enjoyed the magic of Star Wars, the different world, the outlandish creatures, the cantina.

Cond on they returned but that's Star Wars, I think it's stupid when I saw complaints of a repeat of showing cantina in the force awakens, when they also had in ANH. jHC, Pirates n scums of the universe need to chill out somewhere. Not that they meet n greet at the spa right?! 🤕🤕

Unbelievable but yeah, some of the complaints I read of TFA 🤓

And I'm going for my 3rd TFA watch tomorrow, 2nd 3D IMAX watch 😬😁

i'm one of the only few who doesnt think the prequel is bad, and machete order is rubbish

watch 4,5,6 then watch 1,2,3

that way you can enjoy 1,2,3 more. 1,2,3 is not about Vader or the jedis. Its about how Sidious manipulate everything to become what he is in epi 5

hint : Sidious is only a senator in epi1

i dont give credits to carbon copy of movies. epi7 is very similar to epi4,5. thats lazy writing. not to mention how convenient it is for Han to "recover" his mf, for Rey to "recover" the saber

and its very obvious epi7 is a movies made for toys. Phasma? serve no purpose other than to disable the shield. Flametrooper? screentime 1min. Melee FO trooper? Screentime <5min. FO Snowtrooper? screentime <1min

Most of you guys forgot that this is Disney who also the owner of Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Don't worry. Star Wars is in safe hand. Certainly they have outline other movies too synchronize with each other ala MCU.

I've just finished reading a very probable theory of Rey's origin. Rey is a Kenobi.
