While Star Wars Ep. VII
was filled to the brim with easter eggs and sci-fi fantasy space opera awesomeness,
when compared to the Star Wars movie universe and Star Wars lore (most of which
had been dismissed by Disney as non-canon) I feel it a just a tier lower than
its predecessors (Yes, even the prequels). It would not be the same to say that
I disliked SWVII altogether, but there were some technical aspects and creative
choices that I did not agree with. Whether it was J.J. Abrams’ focus on
insta-friendships or Disney’s happy endings, or a sick and twisted combination
of the two, I give this saga’s entry a six out of ten.

And now its time for me to obliterate the movie into the oblivion of hyper space (but not really).
Its been more than a month since SWVII premiered to the masses, if you haven't seen it yet and you're reading this stop. Stop right now before I ruin the epicness of the movie for you. As mentioned above I don't believe it lived up to the original trilogy and the prequels, partially because of Finn's character, partially because of Poe's absence, mainly because of the story build up. Is it a script problem? I don't know, I'll leave that up to you.
