The Buffinator said:[*]The end scenes where "people all over the galaxy are rising up" against the First Order is a blatant rip-off of the "people all over the world are rising up" scenes at the end of Independence Day. It finally clicked where I'd seen/heard that before. Not exactly stealing from the best there, JJ.I could forgive him for this if it wasn't for those damn Ewoks.

I'm glad that they cut the scene where Ice Cream Maker Guy jumps in a Twin-Pod Cloud Car and says "In the immortal words of our forefathers, up yourrrrs!"

Your response is a perfect example of white privilege... not surprising in the least. You obviously don't understand why this is a serious problem in movies, so move on.

So JJ supposedly wanted to break TROS into two movies, Disney said no, then he wanted it to be three hours like EG (a terrible idea for a SW movie), Disney said no. JJ wanted way more Rose, Disney said reduce her screen time, JJ wanted Finn and Poe to be an item, Disney said no. JJ wanted it to be clear that Leia's dying act was to project an image of Han Solo in front of her son, Disney said no you can have Han appear but make it ambiguous. JJ said no Reylo kiss, Disney said put it in.
Wow if all of that is true then I'm glad that Disney overruled him apparently even more than Gareth Edwards, lol.
EDIT: Also supposedly all this leaked out about him needing to be overruled to make a proper finale due to sour grapes about him taking the WB deal. I don't know what to believe, lol.

There is absolutely nothing there in his cut that I prefer over the final cut other than seeing all of the other Jedi I totally wanted that and it still bugs me that we didn?t get it. I need a hug.
So JJ didn?t even propose an epic space battle wtf lol

Release the JJ cut my ass, lol.
Like I said when you make a SW movie you need to then be able to step back and accept feedback on what the stupidest stuff is that needs to be cut or changed.
Other claims (unconfirmed): JJ did indeed film all the Jedi Ghosts but Disney said reduce the number of ghosts due to China. And Disney didn't like all the traction that the Finn/Poe shipping was getting so they said use Zori Bliss to show that Poe likes women, lol.

IDK, I could have gotten behind Poe marrying his ex-stripper girlfriend just prior to the final battle.
Finally an American hottie in SW again, lol.
"USA! USA! USA!"
lol

I wish they had taken the time to flesh out her character more (no pun intended) as well as establish her back story with Poe earlier. If only she'd been introduced in TLJ - she could have been this trilogy's version of Lando. Things wouldn't have felt so rushed, and it would have lent more weight to her showing up with the rest of the galaxy for the final battle.
Hey, maybe Disney could do a limited run prequel series around Zorri & Poe's spice-running days? KR & OI probably have better things to do, but I'd watch...
Yep you're right she totally should have been the Lando/Eowen/Eomer character that gets introduced in Part II and then kicks ass in Part III. Obviously that's what RJ thought he was setting up with Rose. 
I'd definitely be down for a Zori Bliss Disney+ show (with or without Poe, lol.)

He only has himself to blame for Rose being sidelined in TROS. I've got nothing against KMT, but next time RJ might want to create a more appealing character.
Yeah... quit it.

Am happy if others are happy with movie. I just can't make myself go see it again e.g. the effort is too much. I'll wait until it pops up on Disney+. There's so many thoughtful comments from long-term SW fans, and comments on YT, that I just can't get past the IMO waste of potential and needlessly %$#@ writing/editing.
It's like watching unpaid fans do the work that Abrams and Terrio SHOULD have done.
Either that, or this movie deliberately targeted a younger demographic with deliberate, not-quite sue-able ripoffs of other movies, to capitalize on the toy market. Familiarity brings comfort. Don't hate it - it's just kinda there. The cast in interviews seems exhausted and IMO Abrams tried hard but just flat-out is too generic in style to make this work, or even self edit. Looking forward to the re-boot and the event mash-up in-theater of the Obi-wan/Mandalorian/SW series 5 years from now, when "an unprecedented event of a generation" crosses from TV to IMAX.

Two quick comments on the supposed Reddit clown trilogy JJ-cut leaks (if true):
"Babu Frik was nearly cut because some execs at Disney thought he would be the new Jar Jar. They are really surprised that people love him this much. He was JJ's idea and was created in collaboration with some artists and puppeteers. The personality was all JJ."
This really proves how tone deaf Disney and Lucasfilm are. Don't they realize Rey & Rose are the new Jar Jars? Babu is one of the very few star-warsy-things in this debacle of a trilogy.
"Jannah was confirmed to be Lando?s daughter."
Why does every black person in Star Wars have to be related? I realize there are only like 4 of them in the entire galaxy thanks to Chinese censors, but still.

I wish! I'd love some TROS toys if they actually existed, lol.
