In the whole galaxy only the Skywalkers are force sensitive?
I'm pretty sure most people understand that, and technically, there's nothing wrong with presenting incomplete content in a movie to answer it in a later sequel. However, you can't do it too much or present content that's too weak to stand on its own, or else people are going to go away asking more questions than getting answers. In a way, this is kind of the problem that we have with the young adult novels and their final book being split into two movies.

I feel like I have to keep repeating myself on this point... even if you think the movie's script/writing isn't any worse than one that came before it, why is it unacceptable to expect anything better after over 30 years of more cinema to use as comparisons? Do we look at a Transformers movie and say, "Well, the script isn't any worse than the last one!", and simply give it a pass? Hell no! We tear that shit to shreds!
And keep in mind that the Jedi don't have kids, so passing on force sensitivity ala the Skywalker clan doesn't normally happen. Instead the Jedi (and the Sith) go out and find force-sensitive children.
Worst star wars movie ... ever.
Right, but that's only because it was part of the Jedi order, not nature. When they do it's more like a dominate gene, likely to happen.
Worst star wars move ... ever.
Did they say that somewhere, or is it something you and other people have put together? I hadn't seen anywhere where they talk about how the Force passes along to anyone, outside of the Skywalkers. Even then it was Luke just saying he, his father and sister had it.
Now in all the novels and comics and cartoons and what made between those movies and now, Luke had started academies that featured not only his and han and lei's kids, but others, so there must be some others that managed to survive; just never trained until Luke arrived.
In the original, you had Vader taunting Leia with the destruction of Alderan. And then when it happened you had that great scene with Yoda feeling a disturbance in the force.
Just put it together, it's not some huge leap in logic though. Vader's two kids have the force, Leia's kid has the force. If Rey is Luke's kid (speculation) it follows suit. So the dominate gene aspect holds true.
Other people who's parents aren't force users can "gain" the force, Anakin did. In the prequels they discover people all the time and put them through training at the academy. This is like a recessive gene showing it's colors.
The only reason I have issues with that thought is the same I had with the midichlorians.
...That inbreeding really drives me insane.
Thanks. As I said earlier, I've seen the first 6 movies maybe 2 or 3 times and the last time was a couple of years ago, so I'm going to make mistakes like that unless I try to fact check my comments. But thanks for pointing those out. :thumbsup:1. That was Tarkin that threatened Leia. Vader was mostly the scary looking lacky in ANH. He was a pretty underdeveloped character at that point.
2. Obi-wan felt the disturbance, Yoda wasn't in ANH.
Saw it, wasn't nearly as bad as I was led to believe though that's my own fault for looking at reddit and neogaf threads before going to see it.
The original cast has successfully set up the new cast who did well IMO.
None of the Star Wars movies were actual "good" movies IMO, the fairy tale element got in the way of that. It's probably one of the reasons Disney wanted it. What it did have is infinite supplies of cool, especially to wide eyed kids seeing it for the first time.
George Lucas struck (4 billions+ worth of) gold with it. He came up with lore that was easy to digest by anyone walking into the theaters. Light sabers, AT-AT's, space ships provided enough cool factor to keep it going forever.
Strong vibes I walked away with after the movie:
Forget canon, Disney will launch a sequel as fast they can shoot them, regardless of what kind and much canon material there actually is. They got Fisher, Hamill and Ford because they needed them but after the next movie everyone is disposable. If Daisy or any other actors fall short of the snow white morale bar that's established now, scripts will be butchered to fit another in their place. I know a lot of people are mad at Lucas for things he did but wait until Disney get's it's death star going. Merchandising won't be content with just one cute droid per movie to sell toys for so the scripts will be changed. If plot twists from popular shows can be pasted into Star Wars, scripts will be changed.
Skywalkers aren't the only force sensitives. Jedi like Kanan and OB1 and co were still around, just in hiding.
