[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree re: too long and lack of character development—reminded me of an X-men movie where a bunch of random characters also seemed thrown in.  Gonna take my early elem. kid this weekend, even though I think it’s a little too long for her (she liked The Force Awakens and Rogue One, and the original trilogy).

We’re talking spoilers, right?

Anybody else get sad when Leia was seemingly dying but then used the force to glide back to the ship? I was just thinking about the fact that she’s passed IRL.   Also, was it surprising that she could use the force like that?

Anyone still think that Kylo Ren and Rey are twins?  I think he just tried to mislead her during that scene so she’d join him.[/quote]

I used to think they were twins or siblings, but don't you think Leia would have known that she was her daughter?[/quote]

What if they were separated at birth and grew up not knowing each other, like Luke and Leia?  Leia may not have recognized her as an adult, even if it was her own daughter.[/quote]

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER

[b]But she would have known she had another baby. Unless someone told her the baby had died a birth and kidnapped her. [/b]

I liked it, but not as much a Force Awakens. I wondered why they made Snoke such a big bad, then killed him. And the floaty Leia thing was weird. And Fin and Rose going to the casino was unnecessary. And I’m glad Laura Dern died (why didn’t she tell Poe her plan?)

But I liked the pacing and humor. I like the few callbacks they did.

I’m seeing it again with my Dad. Wondering if a 2nd viewing will change my opinion.

PP here.  I was wondering whether they were raised separately, perhaps for safety reasons, so perhaps Leia didn't recognize her.

Another supporting data point for this hypothesis is their connection through the Force.  Luke and Leia also have that connection.  So, wondering whether Kylo Ren and Rey could be twins or at least siblings as well.

I also thought the casino part could've been cut when I saw it the first time.  However, somehow I liked the whole movie a bit more after seeing it the second time--it seemed less disjointed (although still long).[/quote]
