I do think that Han's return to the MF is not as epic as they think they made it and are trying to sell it.

I've learned that if I ever disagree with jye's opinion all I have to do is wait an hour and he'll post the exact opposite of what he said previously.

An hour from now:
"Chewie, we're home" is the greatest moment in the SW saga.

Yeah, I love that goofy scene.
BTW, Khev... you're needed in the BvS thread. Jye is slipping into darkness again.
Please tell me that makes me the opposite of Emo Ren.

That's a pretty good foundation to start with.
I'm just a perpetually conflicted SOB.
Besides, all I said was that I was giddy to watch BvS as my 15 year old self hence my affection for it.
But I appreciate Irish looking out for me.
*spindrift already calling me out on it...just great..FML.

You keep talking about your 15 year old self and Bryan Singer will be the one "looking out for you". *Allegedly*

Thank you
This is great that her and John are good friends and knew each other before the film. This is the rare chemistry that will carry through the new trilogy
She's got a purty mouth.
Oops, I dropped a quarter.
Sure... you "dropped" a quarter.
On that note, This scene always moved me. Glad JJ added this in
Yeah, it gets me every time, too. Kinda wish they'd left in the shot of him hanging the dice back, though.

IrishJedi is probably the only one here who would have even noticed but did anyone else get a "Seven Samurai" vibe from the Knights of Ren? The last time I watched TFA I made a point to just focus on those guys during Rey's vision and instantly caught a seemingly familiar stance of the one Knight in the back resting an over-sized staff weapon of some kind casually on his shoulder. It made me think of the way the ex-farmer Samurai would carry his huge katana particularly in that one shot where the Samurai are looking down on the farmers' village for the first time.
I'm assuming it's a deliberate homage given that Abrams was quite up front about studying Kurosawa, Ford, and Mallick prior to shooting TFA.
Absolutely. And I can't say for certain but in the behind the scenes docs Abrams seemed to indicate that that moment of Han in the cockpit was actually Ford himself seeing it again for the first time. Abrams wanted to just film it unrehearsed so unless I'm mistaken that's a genuine smile we're seeing from Ford there. I do admit though that it was pretty jarring seeing him wearing those super bright blue sneakers in most of his most iconic scenes in the film. I guess it's better than Greedo wearing high heels under the table.

Bastards killed him. Before there could ever be a reunion for the big 3. Maybe to some that lends added weight to his death, to me it's a shame, at least right now. The next two films might vindicate it somehow.

A-dev just snuffed khev's enthusiasm.
Yeah, when Han bought it kids sitting behind me started balling, like I was inside.
Maybe Irish knows this, but is it true that Ford and Hamill not friends

Nah, it's what I expect from him. In fact his refusal to indulge in the Avatar backlash is directly linked to Cameron's enthusiasm to make 27 more of the stupid things.
Well it's really a shame that Ford was asking for Han's demise since ESB. Oh well what can we do

He was as good as dead in ROTJ anyways.

That's exactly why JJ wanted this scene filmed in the script ..JJ is such a geek.. I love it
Don't worry, Han will be back. Yee haw!
