    Spoiler alert! 🙁

      You think that’s a spoiler? You should see the comment below yours!

      I’m not really into SW. But I have to say that Mr Boyega is one fine looking gentleman. I will even give him a pass on the sweater. (TBH, I kinda dig it. Always love to see a hot dude in something other than a suit or a t.) But it just reads to me as too Cosby, too soon.
      Sorry, cool sweater designer.

    I still don’t understand why Finn and Poe couldn’t have hooked up. That would’ve been real progress. I mean, Poe gave Finn his jacket; that’s practically going steady… why the bond between them couldn’t be romantic is ridiculous.

    Disney, of course, will instead only pay lip service to representation. As usual.

    • Jillian says:

      Finn and Poe would have been an extremely hot pairing!

    • Kendra says:

      Finn was homeless and destitute when he was given a jacket (or more like he took it and was let to keep it) there was no relationship allusion.

    Noooooo, Star Wars spoiler in the heading, whyyyyy 😭😭😭😭

    • Mia4s says:

      It apparently lasts two seconds and is between two characters of no real consequence. Easy to chop out of the cut released in certain foreign territories. That’s it. Here’s your cookie Disney and JJ. 🙄

    TWO SAME GENDER PEOPLE KISS is not a damned spoiler. Good lord!

    And why would Jennifer Anniston who would have had kids if she wanted to want to be a stepmother to the six kids her ex had after insinuating for years that he left her because she wasn’t ready to have kids?

  5. Veronica S says:

    Thanks for the crumbs, Disney! Keep patting yourself on the back for the barest modicum of representation.

      They’re a risk-averse, conservative, multi-billion dollar corporation. I ain’t holding my breath.

      Although, for such a conservative behemoth, they don’t appear to have planned out this SW trilogy, which is nuts. The reviews … ouch! It’ll still make a tonne of money but it sounds like a frantic mess.

      They do better than Hallmark! :-/

    Dude in header picture looks gorgeous and charismatic. I’d love to see him acting–certainly one to watch (and enjoy doing so)!

    It was a two-second thing. The film had a nice pace and was uplifting and fun while tying everything up very well. I very much enjoyed it but I’m not a star wars nerd so don’t fault me for missing any mythology inconsistencies! Daisy was great acting-wise as well as with the action sequences. She’s really improved a lot.
