ST Things you've noticed in Force Awakens.

No, Finn could find Poe spot because it had all the smoke from the crashed TIE, where it was impossible for Poe to find Finn as Finn was just in his ejector seat. No way for Poe to find Finn crash site.

 

The novelizations even clarify that Poe thought Finn had died in the crash, too.

 

Well , if I remember right it was Poe mission to deliver the map to Skywalker to the Resistance base.
Since the First order comes,Poe puts the map in BB8.
However,after he just let Finn who is the one who helped him to escape from the First order battlecruiser, Poe also abandons BB8 with the map to Skywalker.
How was BB8 supposed to come to Resistance base ?
Rey understand what BB8 speaks,because how strong is Rey with the light side of the Force.
But,if you remember right,BB8 is just a little away from being transformed into pieces and the map to Skywalker being lost.
And is actually Rey which saves BB8 and she,with Finn,get an old ship and deliver BB8 to the planet on which Maz is.
Now, Maz is not willing to get involved in delivering BB8 on a safe ship to the Resistance base.
So, is not just a poster.
See on the thread dedicated to Maz Kanata,she was a collaborator with the Siths,the Empire and now,with First order.
Maz was not liking what Siths,Empire or First Order were doing.
I do not recall First Order going after Maz to capture her when they come to get BB8 from the planet on which Maz had her tavern.
You can disagree with dictators and not collaborate with them and being cold to them.

For example,when someone which was a supporter of the Empire,Sith,First order would have come to Maz Tavern,she could have treat them
with some coldness. And express her unhappiness to what Siths,Empire and First Order were doing.
But,I doubt this was the behavior of Maz.
Anyway,offering a warming welcome to everyone had a chance to make those ones (Siths,Empire ,First order) to make them change a little from their behavior.
So maybe Maz treats everyone with kindness .And Maz is actually more in the middle of the picture.

As for the stormtroopers,some are agreeing with what they are doing, but some are not.
This is why we see stormtroopers at both sides of the picture.
And even Fasma was disagreeing to what First Order was doing,since she agrees very fast to lower the shield of the Starkiller base.
If she would have been a dark side fanatic,she would have chosen to die,but not lower the shields.

So,I keep my opinion that is not only a picture.

 

I imagine the dark side only wishes Poe would pay them a visit!

I'd like to think that when Poe gets a lift he learns about BB-8's escape especially after he looks for a replacement jacket and learns one of the two involved in helping BB-8 escape Jakku was wearing one...

I also like to think BB-8 sent a text to Poe's Mobile letting him know what's going on after he recovered from Rey flying a spaceship...

 

More of a cconclusion then a obersvation but the TIE that sank in the sand made it more difficult 4 the FO 2 find Finn & Poe.

 

No offense, but the more you explain, the more I'm convinced that you're just reading too much into it.

Poe's activities are explained in the novelizations and actually make sense, given that he was stranded in the desert with nothing but the clothes on his back (save for the jacket) and in no position to hunt down BB-8. By the time he got back to the base, they were alerted that BB-8 was on Takodana (part of the reason that he takes that Resistance squad there).

Rey understood him because she learned astromech droid code language (Rey's Survival Guide). No Force used.

Yeah? That's in the move (and not on the poster).

Maz didn't want to help since she knew that Han needed to do it. No relevance to the poster, either.

These two sentences are mutually contradictory and only the second is consistent with the movie.

DId you miss how they razed her castle and were shooting at everyone?

You lost me here.

You lost me again. What does this have to do with the story, much less the poster theory?

You lost me again. And if your saying that Maz's positioning close to the middle is evidence that she's not swayed by the dark side, Rey is actually in the middle, which is stronger evidence that she's not as leaning to the dark side as you've been saying.

Then why does the movie make it clear that Finn's desertion is unheard of and all the other troopers we see are completely loyal?

Um, no. She tells Finn, Han, and Chewie: "You can't be so stupid as to think this will be easy. My troops will storm this block and kill you all." She's cooperating since she believes that they will fail anyways, so why die for nothing?

Your free to do that, but I really don't understand where your coming from. It's just a collage of characters from the movie.

 

WebLurker :
This thread is called "thing you have noticed in force awakens" not "popular opinions about The Force Awakens characters".
I do not want to continue the argument about what is presented on "The Force Awakens" theatrical poster.
Since other people are also entitled to post here what they have noticed and I would not want to just continue the argument about what I have posted earlier.

 

Okay.

 

I noticed that the sounds of the Rathtar seem to be made from pre-existing sounds. I recognized the sound of a Reek and Acklay from AOTC after it grabs Finn.

Also, the burping sound of the Sarlacc.

Anyone catch any others?

 

I noticed that there are SEVERAL DEAD Stormtroopers in the same room where Finn pointing a blaster to Phasma's head and forcing her to lower the shields.

I guess Han/Chewie/Finn were really going to town.... Phasma maybe noticed that

If you were Phasma, what would you do? I would lower the shields as well....

 

If you value your life, you would. Live to fight another day.

 

[REMOVED] too far

 

I noticed that in TFA while the sounds were good it did not have the distinct sounds that were found in past Star Wars movies. There were a few but the other movies and specifically the OT had very distinct sounds,

 

I apologize

 

there are tons of old sounds in tfa.

 

Agreed, however, when I close my eyes and listen to OT, the sounds jump out at me. When I do this with TFA, while I hear them its not as distinct. Not a bash on TFA just an observation

Was Ben Burtt involved with TFA?

 

He's credited with "Sound Design" on TFA.

I think there should have been a scene of the first order at the crash site y'know something like this:


First Order troopers scour the crash site looking for any signs of life or even wreckage, there is nothing but a smoking black crater

Stormtrooper #1: Someone survived the crash, the tracks go off in this direction

suddenly a second stormtrooper spots something in the sand: a piece of Stormtrooper armor that had been discarded

Stormtrooper #2: Look sir a traitor!

 

there was no crash site. it disappeared.

 

YesI know I even mentioned that...

 

I missed that.

 

A small thing, but I noticed that Luke doesn't wear an outer Jedi robe like Kenobi or Qui-Gon. Like in ROTJ, he wears a cloak and cowl, draped over his shoulders and unclasped. However, it's in traditional Jedi brown, rather than black.

Not really relevant, but I noticed it.

 

yeah I noticed Luke's new cloak in Force Awakens similar to his black/brown one from Return of the Jedi.

Dunno if I would wear a cloak like Luke's if youre just standing around when there's wind blowing. Sheesh lol
