Star Wars: The Force Awakens Sets New Christmas Day Box Office Record

“Have we dampened their enormous collective love-fest with our complaints (many of which are exceptionally mild in nature) or our attitudes of irritating intellectual dispassion?” You can sense the conflict of the character and you do understand his motivations. However, according to a new book, The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Anakin nearly appeared as a Force ghost.

Claudio Ranieri: Unpredictable results have been good for the Premier League
Klopp knows the task on his hands, pleading in his first press conference: “Please give us time”. I had big fights with myself and bad, bad words for myself in many situations of the game.

But most importantly The Force Awakens has characters you give a damn about.


Broncos sticking with Osweiler but Manning may practice
The Broncos will also play without outside linebacker Lerentee McCray, who is out with a hamstring strain. Currently, the Broncos are first in the American Football Conference (AFC) West with a 10-3 record.

And that’s because this actually feels like a Star Wars film. Stormtroopers have moral ambiguity, a Skywalker family member can turn to the dark side, and most of all, Han Solo (Harrison Ford) can die in this new story.


Kirti to Shah: Why no DDCA mention?
On Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said that Jaitley would come out of the DDCA row with flying colours – a la Advani. The BJP sources said that had there been no action against Azad, Jaitley’s position would have become “untenable”.

Its unclear exactly how Anakin would have shown up.

Three unlikely people collide into one another: Poe Dameron (Isaac), a rebel pilot who can fly “pretty much everything”, Finn (Boyega) a Stormtrooper who doesn’t quite like his job, and Rey (Ridley) a scavenger on a desert planet who bumps into the cute little robot BB-8 which carries some explosive information. He is one o the most trusted operatives of Princess Leia. Now that this episode exists, the new trilogy will forever be linked to the original trilogy. Her role, however, is limited, but you get the feeling that she knows more than she’s letting on. The Force Awakens doesn’t attempt to explain everything, which is both good and bad.

The character work is essentially a representation of the variety of Star Wars fans that will be sure to be in the audience. “He said, “It’s so good, I wish I were making it.’ He may have said something one time on ‘Lost” with Damon, but I never hear him express regret like that”.

It is nearly a peerless experience and you get the feeling that Abrams really cares. Even better was his Star Trek, an enjoyable big-screen gloss on the 1960s series that he followed with a disappointing sequel, taking two steps back. Small touches like the BB8 droid were thoughtful and cute, but not overly so, like Jar-Jar-Binks from the prequels. “Star Wars: Episode VIII” will be released on May 26, 2017.

And the Rebellion throws off all sorts of great characters, too, from Wedge Antilles, who goes from a minor character in “A New Hope” to the head of a commando squadron in the “Rogue Squadron” novels, to Corran Horn, who started out as a Corellian cop and ended up a Jedi Master with connections to a powerful smuggling family.

The fans of the original films (myself included) also did not disguise their distaste for the prequel films (Episodes I, II, and III) which were widely viewed by them as a big disappointment after waiting some 16 years between Return of the Jedi (1983) and The Phantom Menace (1999).

There never was and never will be a problem with the music of Star Wars.
