Characters that you Hate or don't like

[plastroncafe]

Briefly considered going through that screed point by point, but...then I got to the end and saw praise for the Prequels. Not worth it.

I will say that Han specifically tells Rey and Finn exactly how he and Chewie found the Falcon.

And that the Jedi were a messed up bunch of people, so it's really no surprise to me that someone snapped under the pressure of living that lifestyle.

Definitely. People might call me crazy but I kind of like the senate scene in The Phantom Menace. But I guess lightsaber action sells more toys than extra-terrestrial political debates, so I can see why Disney made the choice.

In Daredevil I find the courtroom scenes far more riveting than the action.

First of all, I wasn't praising the prequels, I'm just saying they tried harder than TFA and actually had some decent worldbuilding (see the clone wars animated series)

Second, Han did not say that. He mentions something about the Irving Boys or whatever and shock at Unkarr having the Falcon when Rey or Finn tells him.

Y'know what, I'd take the prequels over TFA any day, atleast those give a good laugh.

When I was but a lad watching AOTC, I remember the ending battles and the Obi-Wan/Jango Fett starship chase leaving quite an impression on me. Also, the line delivery when Anakin complains about sand and his issues with Obi-Wan is priceless.

Since the film was so strongly marketed to preteen-adolescent males, I wonder how many "younglings" have died because of Padme's abs.

And then he says that the ship came up on scanners, "How else do you think we found you so fast."

As well as mentioning how they needed to find them a clean ship.

Say what you will about her robotic acting in the PT but she nailed it in the looks department. How anyone finds Daisy Ridley more attractive over Portman is beyond me.

Does that really happen? Even if it does, it doesn't clear anything up. Why couldn't "the scanners" find the ship on Jakku? How did the falcon even get there in the first place without "the scanners" tracking it? BUT YKNOW I GUESS THATS A STORY FOR ANOTHER DAY LOL HACK WRITING

Go watch it for a fifth time and get back to us.

Goddamnit I'm gonna have to, am I? See you guys in 2 hours or so.

I might take a cue from you and go watch the AOTC scenes with Padme and her midriff. There's far more depth and mystery there.

Oooh! And pay special attention to whether that Jakku mission to fetch Poe was Finn's first deployment.

I'm envious. I'd go and watch it, but this term paper isn't going to write itself.
Much to my chagrin.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

Someone transcribed TFA and Finn apparently says this:

"In my first battle, I made a choice. I wasn't going to kill for them."

[plastroncafe]

"Solo, why are we here again?
- To get your droid on a clean ship.
- Clean?
Do you think it was luck that
Chewie and I found the Falcon?
If we can find it on our scanners,
the First Order is not far behind."

[TheSkeletonMan939]

So why couldn't they scan it before?
Can they only read it if it's turned on?

If that kind of technology exists, why is it so hard for the First Order to find the Rebel base? Can't they just "scan" for their ships?

[plastroncafe]

Because apparently scanners have range limitations, and:

"- Where did you get this ship?
- Niima Outpost.
Jakku?
That junkyard?
Thank you!
Junkyard.
I told you we should've double
check the Western Reaches."

They never checked the Western Reaches.

I guess it's just a huge coincidence that they were in the area for the scanners to work. I'm actually on this exact part now and I still can't wrap my head around this.

People don't like Finn now? This is the first I'm hearing about this. He was alright for the the male lead with some funny moments and nice scenes. I mean what did people expect?

Someone reasonably competent who wasn't comic relief.

[BabyTurtles]

Korra.......actually most of the characters from Legend of Korra....

Sasuke...Hinata..Naruto....actually...most of the characters from Naruto...XD

Donnie (tmnt2012)
April (tmnt 2012)

any character that never learns their lesson...or is just that "dumb comic relief" character.

[CyberCubed]

Man I forgot about the characters from Korra, which is odd because I watched the show in full back in 2014 which was only 2 years ago.

I think the main problem with that show is the writers had no idea how to develop the main cast. The two brothers didn't grow or change much since their first appearances, and Asami was underused to the point where she barely did anything. Then all those secondary and third-tier recurring characters they introduced, half of them were so boring I forgot what they even did.

Tenzin was best character.
