Re-review The Force Awakens

So we re-watched Star Wars the Force Awakens yesterday.

After seeing Rogue One, which we've previously noted we think is the second best Star Wars movie, we had forgotten all about the Force Awakens. Also we saw Red Letter Media's Half in the Bag review of the Force Awakens. Mike, Jay and Rich liked it so we wanted to give it another go.

Overall we'd give the Force Awakens a B. Half in the Bag called a 'soft reboot' and this seems about right.

A few thoughts:

-We have lots of character in The Force Awakens and the things they do are consistent and make sense.
-It's pretty obvious Rey is Luke Skywalker's daughter. They drop hints all over the place, yo.
-At first we wondered about the whole presentation of Kylo Ren, he seemed like an emotionally disturbed Millennial. But after seeing the Force Awakens again we like him more and more.
-Kylo Ren is irredeemable, right?
-Something bugged us about Han Solo in the Force Awakens and we finally figured it out. Go back and watch it again. Harrison Ford isn't playing Han Solo. He's playing Indiana Jones.
-We lie Rey, Finn and Po a lot.
-We loved the ending scene.

The Force Awakens also represents a clean break with prequels. Ok, there is one reference to the Sith, but that's it.

Thank god.
