    ...it's both.

    I hear you though preacher, starwars.com itself sayeth...

    "The poetry you are most familiar with balances sounds in a symmetrical way — usually rhyme, rhythm, or meter, or a combination of these. Old Testament poetry may occasionally do this, but only rarely. The type of poetry we encounter in the Old Testament balances ideas in a kind of conceptual rhyming.”

    Yeah . Just strolling by the enemy personnel , business as usual.
    If Finn wants to top his predecessors he should also casually whistle a tune while doing this ;)

    Right down to the vaporator behind their right shoulder and the look on their face...

    Luke just saw the remains of his dead aunt and uncle and his burned home. How much you wanna bet Rey just saw the results of the first order burning the village?

    It seems to be both. They are playing it safe on this one. I think they will branch out in the next episodes.

    Agreed . He even deflects the blasts in a angry aggressive way . He must be ferocious in battle.

    EDIT: Adam Driver has really nailed the body language of the character from what i have seen so far . I remember when i saw the first teaser ages ago and went "damn that's dark!!" when i saw him angrily marching through the winter forest.

    I also love how the blaster bolts seem to actually be heading toward his head when he deflects them, unlike in the OT where they kind of arbitrarily deflect the shots. Which, I mean, is probably easier to do with 2015 effects.

    Yea. Finn is definitely in over his head. His injury may add to that PG-13 rating.

    It makes sense. I don't want to come off as annoying. I have to stop and just wait until I see the film before I do the negatron stuff. The movie is going to be amazing I'm sure.

    Why does the bottom picture look "realer" for some reason?

    All of the shots from the new film look highly processed for some reason with like this weird orange/blue tint around them....it's not just TFA though, a lot of movies from the 2000s/2010s seem to have this....I don't know why. Many years down the road those movies will be immediately "dated" looking/recognizable as from "that decade/era" because of it, I think...

    How about how the Rebels had a base on Hoth, a frozen planet, in the OT and now the First Order has a base on a seemingly frozen planet.
