    I really like when Poe and the rest of them come and battle the first order on Takodana. In just one continuous shot in the movie we see Poe destroy like 7+ tie fighters and you understand why he is the greatest pilot that they have.

    did not find this easy, and it was close between this and the han/ben close up on the bridge.

    not an important moment as far as the galaxy is concerned, but a beautiful moment.

    one of my favorites too ~ it's little beats like this that make the movie great (and so rewatchable, time and again). i often find myself distracted or glossing over some of the big flashy action sequences, but i am always drawn to these quiet little moments of character-building.

    completely agree.

    i love the whole film, but it's the first section that i crave to watch over and over again.

    i loved the switch from Poe perspective to Finn's. i like the short cut to the first time we see Rey. Rey's anthom as she slides down the sand. Rey eating outside the walker... be easier to just say... all of it.

    i could happily watch 2hrs of Rey's life on Jakku

    hahaha ~ yes! my brother and i joke about our "favorite part". he always says "that one between Lucasfilm Ltd. and the end credits".
    but i too could just follow these characters around all day. it's part of why i enjoy the Poe Dameron comic so much.

    Prob when Poe walks by the laser bolt he shot at Kylo. Unfortunately Kylo out did himself there.. But there are actually some pretty great shots in the film. I won't gripe about that part of the movie.

    For me its practically everything in that scene which introduced Rey. I also really like the confrontation in the Takodana forest. But then moment when she climbs those steps............... This movie is just full of beautiful shots.

    I dislike TFA alot. However visual moments I liked alot was........

    The wrecked ships on Jakku a reminder of the far superior OT. "Chewie, we're home!" And when Luke turns around & sees "Ms. Perfect".

    However that spinning helicopter shot was horrible .

    Funny how these people start every comment with "I dislike blah blah blah", even when it is completely off topic. I'm nearing that last drup moment.

    Also a very pleasing moment:

    Starkiller becoming a star, and Rey's little smirk when she says "I'm not giving you anything" during the interrogation. She's trapped, as far as she knows she's powerless in about 15 different ways, but she defies Kylo Ren to his face. That's the single most bada** thing I've ever seen in a SW movie, Rey might look cute but she's T-X on the inside.

    I very unhappy about that Kylo scene not being included. One of my favorite scenes was the beautiful shot of Ties flying away in the cloudy sunset above. Very Apacolypse Now remeniscent.

    [​IMG]


    This movie's starfighter segments are all too tearjerking and nostalgic. Once the Resistance made their appearance on Takodana, I fell in love with X-Wings all over again!

    Another great shot, that brought back a true Nazi feel to the opposing side, was the speech at Starkiller base before it's use. I was satisfied how obsessively "cult-ish" this scene was. A scene completely influenced by Hitler.

    A lot of great moments mentioned, Kylo capturing that blaster bolt.. beginning the interrogation.. and walking away afterwards releasing it to do its damage. Bad ass.
