>I chatted with Star Wars: The Force Awakens director/producer J.J. Abrams over the phone, as the film he produced, 10 Cloverfield Lane, will premiere in New York City tonight. Before I talked Cloverfield, I had to ask him one question about The Force Awakens: Why did Leia hug Rey instead of Chewbacca? Here was Abrams’ answer:
>"That was probably one of the mistakes I made in that. My thinking at the time was that Chewbacca, despite the pain he was feeling, was focused on trying to save Finn and getting him taken care of. So I tried to have Chewbacca go off with him and focus on Rey, and then have Rey find Leia and Leia find Rey. The idea being that both of them being strong with the Force and never having met, would know about each other — that Leia would have been told about her beyond what we saw onscreen and Rey of course would have learned about Leia. And that reunion would be a meeting and a reunion all in one, and a sort of commiseration of their mutual loss."
But Abrams realizes that some people saw it as a slight and admits that the real mistake may have been in how he blocked that shot:
>"Had Chewbacca not been where he was, you probably wouldn’t have thought of it. But because he was right there, passed by Leia, it felt almost like a slight, which was definitely not the intention."
If you watch the scene, you notice that Chewie just stands in the corner of the screen while Rebels are cheering. He DOES NOT focus on helping Finn as JJ said he does in the scene.
You cannot at all defend this scene as a Force Awakens fan. JJ has given proof that he stuffed up this scene.
This still doesn't explain why two total strangers decided to share a long hug when meeting for the first time.
Jason Phillips
Women's intuition. You wouldn't understand. ;)
Ethan Gonzalez
and why Leia didn't at all hug Chewie. Even though I know she didn't get along with Chewie throughout the OT films, she COULD have at least shared a moment with him considering her and Chewie both cared deeply for Han throughout the OT films.
I hate how when Han died, he was dropped from the film and there was no memorial for him or anything like we got with Qui Gonn in Phantom Menace.
Hell Superman's death in BvS is so much more YET the die hard fans have been with Han for 30 years so they deserved some type of memorial scene for him instead of "okay move onto next scene cool we found Luke okay Rey I trust you to be the only one who goes to bring him back".
Caleb Morales
because they were both strong in the force ie gurl power
John Lopez
It's terribly blocked and that forces the editing to be shite for the scene. But the idea that lady to lady hug had to be done is bullshit.
She felt more for Finn then she did Han. She fucking barely knew Han. So scene should have been Chewie and Leia hugged, followed up by plot point of Rey seeking Finn medical attention.
Kevin Fisher
Why do you never see Chewbacca's dick? He doesn't wear pants. It should be flopping around all over the place.
Dylan Jackson
>I hate how when Han died, he was dropped from the film and there was no memorial for him or anything like we got with Qui Gonn in Phantom Menace.
Holy shit, I didn't think of this. He's one of the most important heroes for the Rebels/New Republic, helped destroy all three Death Stars, and died in combat, but he dies and everyone just says "oh well".

Lucas Thomas
No, he doesn't
but a directors cut isn't called that for shits and giggles
Nolan Russell
He's an anthropomorphised dog.
Jacob Gomez
JJ got final cut. The theatrical cut IS the director's cut.
Ethan Ward
My headcanon is that Chewie is pissed at Leia for telling Han to try to reason with Kylo
Jose Peterson
Ford was probably just done with it.
>"I'm dead? Good. Never call me again"
Jacob Smith
yeah and Star Wars in 77' was Lucas' cut.
That doesn't stop JJ from re-releasing it and making changes.
Josiah Gray
He was done with it in empire, the froze him in carbonite and had him sent off because they didn't know if he would be back for Jedi. In Jedi ford and Kasdan both wanted to kill off Han.
Owen Nguyen
i'm tired of this faggy meme. there is nothing wrong with this shot. i will explain why... 1. leia felt rey's strong force presence. 2. leia didn't even see chewbacca because she was 100% distracted by rey 3. chewie doesn't have the force and didn't sense his presence at all 4. when solo died she felt kylo and rey's reactions, not Han's because he doesn't have the force 5. chewie was quietly grieving. he did not need a bitch hug from leia like rey did
done
Ryder Walker
Yes, but by definition, it would not be a DIRECTOR'S CUT.
Parker Foster
>implying Disney would allow this
Lincoln Bailey
>he messed up a scene >a scene >a (singular)
No, he messed up an entire franchise.
Austin Johnson
She blames Chewie for Han leaving her and dying. Why would she hug him?
Josiah Rodriguez
Because Rey is the main character so she has to do all the things you fucking misogynist
Evan Perez
Yeah, like Disney would say no to something ten years from now that would not only reintroduce the series to newer viewers but also a guaranteed seller.
Directors Cuts always sell
Samuel Stewart
True fact. The prequels sucked and took wind out of my sails but they didn't weaken my love for the OT. TFA made me realize that Star Wars is just shit. I suppose I have JJ to thank, I really wouldn't have realized if he didn't so cynically remake A New Hope and make Luke Skywalker a cuck.
Thomas Hill
forget scenes, the movie itself was a nonsensical piece of garbage as far as the story goes. which was enough to destroy an otherwise fantastically made movie. Nothing about what happened after the Galactic Civil War makes any sense, it is just impossible to explain how the Republic (who won the fucking war) and the entire galaxy would somehow not address the growing menace of a god damn identical looking faction building a death star 2.0. Also why would Han and Luke literally abandon the galaxy and allow millions to die? All over one butthurt kid? Only a 5 year old would accept that the movie's writing was dogshit
Samuel Gomez
It wasn't Abrams. It would have been bad no matter what. The new movies only reveal to everyone how half assed and weak the Star Wars mythology and universe are.
Austin Ortiz
I always imagined she knew who Leia was and felt sorry for Han.... but then you know, no one hugs chewie or anything
Thomas Walker
Except they've got star wars movies planned out until the heat death of the universe. There won't be a "new audience" because we're going to get a new fucking movie every year.

>2. leia didn't even see chewbacca because she was 100% distracted by rey CHEWIE WALKS RIGHT PAST LEIA YOU IDIOT

Unless Snoke somehow brainwashed all the kids right after return of the Jedi.
It makes no fucking sense at all storywise and is not realistic at all.
I do not understand how ANYONE can defend this movie as having a good story

Tarkin is literally the main antagonist of a New Hope. Vader is only slightly more in the movie because he's the asshole who's sent out to get shit done personally.
Saying that Tarkin isn't important, is like claiming the high ranking corporate dude who was manipulating everything in Robocop is not important, just because he's not the guy who shot Robocop at the start.

Ryder Lopez
>bringing up this bullshit again Star Wars always handled emotion like it was fucking retards with 15 second memories interacting. In A New Hope you have Leia consoling Luke after Obi Wan dies, even though Obi Wan was just a crazy old dude Luke only sort of was acquainted with until the day before, and Leia had just lost her entire planet and 99% of the people she knew in the universe.
It's a fucking movie, it will focus on the main characters' emotions even if a side character is more important in that scene

Adrian Taylor
>Alderaan was an inside job >Alderaantruth.com I'm not saying that Luke shouldn't be feeling bad, I'm saying that Leia wouldn't forget that her planet just got blowed up and start focusing purely on him.

Dominic Ramirez
Not me. They really went out of their way to make his death as hokey and cliche as possible. Of course shills will turn around and say "It's STAR WARS DUUUUDE ITS SUPPOSED TO SUCK". They're mentally fucking ill the way they love the OT on one hand but love TFA on the other.

Plus there is the Arthur Dent effect where it's a bit difficult to process the fact that an entire planet just went kablooey. And that I for one, were a lot more pre-occupied consoling my mother when my father died, than with being miserable myself. It's weird place to be in. It actually helps when you have someone around to console instead of being miserable yourself. It might not be the same way for everyone, but I can relate to it. Especially if we consider Leia knew exactly what she signed up for.

I enjoyed it but it left a hollow feeling and on my second viewing I was more critical of it. A solid 6/10 blockbuster, had some entertainment value but it was a 4/10 in terms of being a Star Wars movie. I would honestly rather watch the prequels just because they at least have some interesting lore and can be funny bad, good to watch when drunk.
Nolan Miller
>caring if a flick has a few inconsistencies
you watch it so you have something to go with your popcorn and pepsi
Brayden Wilson
When I first saw it I enjoyed it a lot but the like the rest of people said it really was just a new hope remake the more I thought about it, with "remember this ;)" moments which in the long run it's gonna feel completely out of place for someone who is going to be introduced to the franchise 20 years from now.
Like honestly the more I think about it the more I feel cheated. I was looking forward to a new chapter and a new world in the series with a similar tone to the OT, instead I got Not A New Hope. As far as I'm concerned there never will be a true episode VII and I doubt VIII will serve that role since it's just going to be Not Empire Strikes Back.

Actually half of Jedi's students join Kylo I believe... or maybe not idk this film makes no fucking sense.
Rey has a flashback and it looks like Kylo is standing with other Sithlords although how come we see no Sith apart from Kylo in Episode 7?

TFA was a disappointing piece of shit. At least people hated the prequels and that was fun. In the case of TFA people still think it's good because it looks like the Star Wars we know but actually it's a huge pile of trash.
Jayden Nelson
She barely knew anybody and had intense abandonment issues. There's even a scene where Kylo reads Rey's mind and says something about how Han feels like a father figure to her. I'm not saying they're best friends or anything, because they did only meet briefly, but it was pretty significant still and anybody would be shaken up watching someone die. A hug is perfectly reasonable in that situation.
Also she fangirled about him being the famous smuggler a bit.
Lucas Smith

BvS made me cry for Superman and that movie had terrible editing! I should NOT have felt sad for Superman with the way Snyder directed the film YET JJ decides to direct TFA without ANY scene to make you cry nor mourn for Han Solo (a character who is so heavily rooted in our lives, has been in every toy store, that the entire human race knows about).
>Han is dead, lets move on to the next scene How do people defend TFA?

>How do people defend TFA? By attacking the prequels and even the original trilogy when it suits them.
Joseph Turner
>movie is about to come out >everyone is hyped >"leaked script" >ends up being better than the actual movie Why does this always happen? Remember when someone said Ultron would rekt the entire avengers and then Scarlet Witch would use the time gen to reverse time and they'd stop Ultron before being created but his AI was dormant in case they ever wanted to re-use him? That was better than what we got. And then someone said Luke ended up being so distrustful of the dark side that he tried to kill the last two descendant of palpatine, who were Rey and Kylo and they both turned against Luke in the end because the right thing is a morally grey area? That sounded better than what we got as well.

She's prejudice so this shouldn't come as a surprise to hardcore fans. They would already have an idea about her racist ideologies
This scene is an easter egg for them, to see if they still remember. To distinguish the true fans from the posers

You user you dont get it. Leia is a general. She is not the young girl she used to be. She has seen a lot. If her character was written well, should would be hugging Chewie or at least trying to give him comfort.
Xavier Cook

Star Wars is the most asinine infantile garbage that ever made it big. >da force >da good guys have blue laser swords and the bad guys have red laser swords so it's easy for the kids to follow >the bad guys are bad because they do bad things and they are literally called the dark side. no discernable motivation aside from that
Bentley Howard
psh tell that to my college!

Since wookiees are based on George Lucas past pet malamute I'm assuming Chewies cock is camouflaged by his hairy sheathe. People are always asking me what sex my malamute is cuz of that.

Star Wars is NOT sci-fi. There are too many fantasy elements in it to qualify for that category.
Leo Thomas

Tyler Allen
Hope we see that in VIII
Jonathan Green
TFA take place litterally 30 years after the OT. She is old as fuck. Make him a jedi in this movie is stupid. She is born to be a leader. Nontheless we don't know if she practice the Force or not. Maybe she learn a few tricks and we see that in VIII.
Joseph Jackson
rey is a mary sue it's as true now as it was last december.

I love TFA, I think it's a good movie overall. But the first time I see it i was a bit disappointed. Why ? Because it had so little new thing in the franchise, in the lore, theme and tone. But i defend it because it's not bad movie in terms of technics.
I understand why they do not take risk, because every little thing Will be analysed by fans.

Falling in this obvious bait

"We wrote these characters but when we went to cast it, one of the things I had felt, having been to the Emmys a couple times — you look around that room and you see the whitest fucking room in the history of time. Its just unbelievably white. And I just thought, we’re casting this show and we have an opportunity to do anything we want, why not cast the show with actors of color?"~ JJ Abrams
I knew right then and there, it would be shit.

No reason for them not to reshoot and put it on a special edition blu-ray in a few years.
Tyler Moore
>How do people defend TFA? By saying the next movie will have all the answers, which is what literally every argument against TFA boils down to
>just buy another ticket goy, the next one will be better
Logan Foster
>inb4 the next movie gets bogged down by trying to answer all the questions JJ left behind through exposition that it doesn't get to be its own thing and is just damage control for TFA

Who is this semen demon? Any nudes of her??

Adrian Sanchez
>No, it was Snoke. HHe's the one who turned our son to the dark side!
Did anyone else feel this line was so overt and on the nose? GayJ Abrams clearly hasn't a clue about screenwriting.
Matthew Gutierrez
This scene is everything wrong and every trope of the lowest fanfic tier writing. It is a culmination of everything wrong with TFA.
When fanfic writers create their own created Mary Sue characters they make them the best at everything and the center of everybody's attention no matter the situation with the existing world's original characters.
It's teenage girl in high school level writing.
Adrian Ross
kill yourself faggot
Sebastian Powell
Leia and Chewie got along just fine.
Go back and look at how they hold each other when Han is frozen in carbonite.
Julian Rivera

Yeah, all of them.

I teared up at the very end of Armageddon. ...Manly tears of course.
Liam Young
I honestly don't understand what you're talking about. I just want to know of that girl has done nudes or not.
Jaxson Ross
This could quite possibly be the most appropriate reaction image ever.
Christopher Cox
Okay funny meme partner now answer the question
Leo Evans
>That was probably one of the mistakes I made in that. My thinking at the time was that Chewbacca, despite the pain he was feeling, was focused on trying to save Finn Kek Chewbacca wouldn't care about a random nigger
William Roberts
It is totally in character for Leia to comfort a stranger despite her own grief. She did the exact same thing in A New Hope damn it!
Her whole planet was destroyed right in front of her. She lost EVERYONE. Despite all that, when Luke sees Obiwan die, she conforts him instead of showing any hint of her own grief.
Nathaniel Barnes
because the of the plo... i mean The Force.
Benjamin Thompson
In the recent Meet N Fuck game Leia fucks Chewie so it's ok in my mind.
Jonathan Bailey

You know Star Wars Is'nt real
Charles Cooper
yea it is, it just happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away
Nathaniel Gonzalez
It's where we go when we die
Aaron Diaz
No, he killed all of lukes other jedi in training. Luke was the only full fledged jedi and was training a new generation of jedi. Kylo ren is basically the galaxy far far away's version of a school shooter.
Julian Long
he listened to too much of the galaxy far far away's version of Marilyn Manson, played too much of the galaxy far far away's GTA
James Campbell
Has it been ten years yet dipshit?
Juan Hall
So why did Luke think it was tolerable to be in exile for a decade or more after fucking up? He's supposed to be the Jedi of Jedi and also our insert. Would you act like a faggot on a miserable isle after doing all that Luke has done? To me it's plain character assassination. Just absolutely destroys the 3 movies everyone worships above baseball and the Bible.
