Edmund Dantes Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 No reviews yet? ...kahit rating review lang...from 1-10 sa mga nakapanood na ng premeier last night... Bukas pa ito magopen samin sa Japan. Been looking at the reviews but not reading them thoroughly as I do not want to read the spoilers. Generally its favorable. The concensus is, its the one we have been waiting for. Based on a friends reaction who saw it last night, ok daw! Its less of that intergalactic politics BS. It has all the reasons why we loved the original trilogy Quote Link to comment

Edmund Dantes Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 O ha mga brader wala muna magspoil until after few days sana para sa mga di pa nakakapanood hehehehe. Yun pa isang nagpapangit sa prequel trilogy, masyadong naging convoluted yung kwento out of all that political mumbo jumbo. Sure it was necessary to tell the backstory of the empire, but we were more interested with Darth Vader. Lucas also failed to cast a charismatic and memorable Anikin SKywalker. We wanted him to be as badass as his Darth Vader persona. But what we got instead was a whinny emo brat bitching all the time. If you guys have played war craft, dapat yung si Ani parang si Prince Arthras. He starts out as this badass paladin trying to protect his kingdom, but his temper and arrogance made it easy for the lynch king to corrupt him Quote Link to comment

Edmund Dantes Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 OK OK OK...... Here now is my totally spoiler free review! Guys, stop spoiling the damn movie if you have seen it! Don't give away any surprises. The only thing you really need to read from this is that IT WAS f#&king AWESOME!!! WOOOOHOOOOO..... Saw it last night, and I still have a hangover from it. I am not Fanboying or anything, but I really did enjoy this movie. JJ Abrams did not disappoint that. Is is a flawless movie? Well duh! What movie is? But that doesn't mean they can really be awesome. I wont give away any plot points, nor spoil any surprises because of two things 1. You will really enjoy it more going into the theater not knowing any of the major plot points. Please trust me on that.2. I have to give so much respect to the team of JJ Abrams for ensuring that we would get excited for this, he never gave anything away in the trailer. The setup was so nice. It asked us to invest trust and if we did, we would be greatly rewarded. Now I will say this, Episode VII is an entry that reminds everyone why we fell in love with the series. Why the original trilogy stood the test of time, and became such a pop culture phenomenon. It also reminded us that there is more to Star Wars than flashy light sabers. I mean in episode I, there was only one light saber duel and it wasn't very action packed. The action scenes were spectacular! I was at awe! grabbing the edge of my seat because of the thrills! Thank god they brought back the things we loved about the original trilogy. I loved that they really opted to use more practical effects in this. I loved the breath-taking locations that they used, the puppetry, and set designs that added authenticity to the scenes. See that was the problem of the prequels. It used too much of that bluescreen and CGI bullshit that barely anything in the location felt real! Even the creatures are digitally added on. Abrams really went oldschool on this one, and like I said, it reminds us why it really works. The heroes! The old heroes we missed are back. They have understandably aged, but the movie does not make it too difficult to accept that. There are some heartwarming scenes here that make us feel really nostalgic. Seriously, every time an old character, droid, ship, or gadget is introduced I was cheering and clapping quietly in my seat. But of course there are new heroes who will carry the torch. And I loved them! All 3 of them! The acting and characterization was splendid. Though all 3 are relatively unknown, they carry enough charisma to be accepted as this new generations star wars heroes. The villain..... The villain was great! No he is not a Darth Vader clone IMO. He takes inspirations from him, but Kylo is not Darth Vader. I really thought the actor who played him should have been..... Wait.... Ill talk about him some other time! I also gotta say something about the writing. The team behind this did such a fantastic job relaunching a beloved franchise. See, this movie is one big setup for something much bigger that's gonna come in the next 6 years. I went into the theater with so many questions, but walked out with more questions. But that is a good thing. Because it only means that we are being promised more. And by the way that it looks, I can bet episode VIII will be so much better. It does not do what the prequels did which is complete the story arc with each installment. There will be more and it gives us a reason to be hooked on the series. One common complain is that it borrowed several elements from the original, yes true.... but at the same time, the aim of this movie is to honor the original, bring us to that memory lane, and make us look forward to its future. This is a love letter to the fans, and an open invitation to a new generation of fans 1 Quote Link to comment
