I can.

Luke's arc is exactly as he predicted back in Empire and ROTJ. He found peace and defeated his foe using the force in a peaceful way and helped them escape in redemption. Redemption from the horrific way he wanted to kill his disciple out of fear.

Rey and Kylo had legitimate struggles with who they were. A character arc of not knowing who was truly bad or good and the internal struggles with figuring that out.

The battle scene with the imperial guards with Rey and Kylo was one of the best cinematic battle scenes in Star Wars for me.

The vision quest of Rey was legit eye opening on her character and not foreshadowing anything. Great way to tell a story.

The flashbacks with Kylo and Luke changing what happened throughout the story was a good story telling device. I forget what story type it is, but it see saws 3 times until we find out what really happens.

I know it's not a popular opinion. But I do enjoy this movie so much more than the prequels in terms of execution and emotional connection.

Everything you said was why it made so much. No one saw it coming and it was entertaining. I still think the first two are solid. After that it fell off. But the third is decent just because of Jack Sparrow's father being Keith Richards.

You can bag on all you want but it's movie. The main objective is to entertain. And it does that on many levels. It's not necessarily cinema but most of these movies are not considered high class cinema. They are blockbusters whose main objective is to make money while entertaining.

This doesn't look real to me. There is not any debris in the "nice sky". There usually isn't a "nice sky" as well. And it usually has a hue of green.

I'm no expert though. They can be dangerous. Far worse than many natural phenomena.

That's a helluva tale for a neighbor that likely just gave him one

 
 
 

I was rocking the Jerboa app and now it's not letting me login. Are there any other alternatives out there?

 

My boy doesn't like the fireworks but he doesn't let him have a bad day. (He still acts like a derp).
