[QUOTE="Braggs, post: 3065508, member: 14999"] I like all the things you all have mentioned and I'll add a few. Make no mistake, everything that was in the movie was done specifically for a purpose. [LIST=1] [*]Unnecessary comic relief (the little bird things, random jokes, etc). [*]Marketing against eating meat (wookie bird thing) [*]More unnecessary marketing against child labor/abuse (the kids caring for the race birds). [*]Even more unnecessary marketing against animal entrapment (the race creatures) [*]Interracial relationship marketing [*]Sending the message that it's ok to destroy what other people have worked hard for as long as it's against your morals. [*]Obvious strong female lead role done on purpose because "muh patriarchy!" [*]All the bad guys leaders are male, all the good guys leaders are female (more obvious feminist marketing) [*]Unexplained disappearance of Luke [*]Telling Finn it's cowardly to run but then later saying sometimes you have to run to fight another day. [*]If the side story of getting the code breaker was a failure, why tell the story at all? [/LIST] Lastly, I'd like to say that I think Kylo Ren was right and Rey was wrong. In order to stop the fighting, they have to agree to not fight anymore. If she had "joined" Kylo Ren, the war could have been over, they could have disbanded the Empire, etc. She had the opportunity to end it all and instead she chose to fight. To me that is evil.
