Star Wars: The Force Awakens

...a re-telling of A New Hope with different characters, where instead of Luke Skywalker - an out-of-his-element farm boy/hobby pilot who has to step up to the plate to fulfil his destiny and save the universe - we have Rey, a super-awesome junk dealer chick who knows everything (including how to fly Han Solo's ship better than Han Solo himself despite having, allegedly, never set foot on a YT1300 before) who has to step up to the plate to fulfil her destiny and save the universe. It even started with a droid carrying information trying to escape capture on a desert planet, and ended with a space battle in which pilots had to destroy yet another Death Star - only this time, it's a Death Planet!

The bad guy, Kylo Ren, was hardly awe-inspiring (and wasn't a particularly good swordsman either...even the stormtrooper, who wasn't a jedi, held his own for a while...against Darth Vader he'd be cut to pieces in about 5 seconds!), and the First Order seemed to just spring up out of nowhere - they glossed over the entire origin story in the intro text.

I hope they'll elaborate on the origins in the next film, and do something a but more interesting and unexpected, but I swear, if the second film starts with a battle on an ice planet and sees Rey spending half of the film training with Luke Skywalker only to leave early, fight the bad guy to save her friends despite not being ready, find out something shocking about her past and lose her hand in the process, then I am going to refuse to see the third one in protest.
