[SPOILERS] What gave you goosebumps/shivers in The Force Awakens
« on: December 17, 2015, 04:21:54 AM »
Since a few of us have already seen the movie (yay for Belgium being early) and I'm pretty sure I wasn't the only one getting goosebumps ...

The first thing (that I can remember out of many) that gave me excitement shivers was the Millenium Falcon action.
That things keeps on going and endures everything! Inexperienced pilot dodging sand and Jakku debris while being chased by TIE's
Man the smile on my face when that junky YT rose from under it's cover ... AWESOME

What scene(s) gave you excitement, chills, goosebumps?

Major goosebumbs at this.

Also, seeing the crashed star destroyer on Jakku (on an IMAX screen) gave it an awe inspiring sence of scale which you didn't really get in the other movies.

Then, of course, the part when Rey is fighting Kylo Ren and closes her eyes to 'see the light of the force'.

Goosebumps:
-The Millennium Falcon rules the skies again!
-"Chewie... We're home".
-Max Von Sidow's cameo (I love him)
-R2 in standby (as every fan)
-C-3PO and R2D2
-The bridge between the new and the old (BB8 completing R2's map, as istance)
-Anakin/Luke's lightsaber
-Han's death (I'm in a deep mourning)
-Han and Leia
-Luke's eyes.

I admit: I'm a nostalgic fan :P

Nothing wrong with that!

that part when BB8 pulls the tarp off R2 is an epic scene!

Laughed pretty hard with BB's thumbs up too :D

When Han Solo calls Kylo Ren by his real name was a 'sit up straight' moment for me and the shot of Chewie alone in the pilot seat :cry:

Several shots in the starkiller base looked like levels in TFU.  :cool:
Also, I'm no expert when it comes to the graflex but was that a 2.1mm charging port in the switch box?
Were the x-wing pilot doll and helmet clues to Rey's parentage? I'm still gonna guess she is Luke's daughter sent away after his failure with Ren

Great movie 8/10 the humor was great but there was something missing.  IMO I miss George Lucas way of movie making.  JJ did a great job but I wanted to see more lightsaber action.  I didn't think the Movie score music was that great either.  I wanted to see more ground battles or space battles too.  Where's the A-wing, B-wing, Y-wing, where's Wedge? 
I was okay with Solo death but I would like to have seen Solo torchered punished by his son. I  would like like to have seen a flashback of Solo memories throughout his death. Give me a more emotional chewbacca in sadness. Let me see princes Leia cry!

Great movie can't wait for the next one!!!!!  :cheesy:

  • I was sad to see that Han and Leia "split up".
  • I would've like a bit more lightsaber action, did I see some form V or VII there from Rey? Was surprised to see her so aggressive.
  • Interesting that they chose the name "Ben" for Kylo Ren as that was Luke's son's name in the books.
  • They did an amazing job with BB-8, really brought him to life and gave him a lot of emotion.
  • Loved the trench scene, very ANH, but yeah, where's the rest of the fighters?

All in all, I loved it. Going again Sunday, will have to watch out for that recharge port! LOL

The scrolling text and the main theme made me tear up... Sight/sound to behold in IMAX. That and the very end with Luke. BB-8 was awesome throughout though. ;)

Great movie, but only a decent Star Wars film. It trailed off badly towards the end after Kylo interrogates Rey.

Yeah Han's death was very tragic, but what gave me the most shivers was the complete destruction of Coruscant. (and I can't believe no one has mentioned it yet)
