I actually liked it a lot, but I can't really discuss it on the internet. You guys are cool, but, oh boy, anyone look at the IMDb page for Force Awakens?

It's like 90% insecure boys in puberty yelling about how women can't be heroes, or role models, and how much they hated the black people and latinos being in there. Holy shit am I feeling embarassed for being a white male right now.

Yea lol. Saw a thread saying "star wars is for boys as twilight is for girls, so why is the main character for 'our' franchise a female?" rofl

Imdb forums are cancerous to have discussions about such things.
I'd recommend the StarWars subreddit, which seems to be very respectful towards all these things.

I don't feel embarrassed by being a white male tbh. I feel embarrassed for people who are so small minded that can't enjoy people of different races or other genders flourishing in a movie.

I don't care at all what gender or race the main character is, I care about their character. I love Boyega and Ridley's personalities, and their talents as actors, both attributes shine through in this film.

Also speaking of this... I've seen sooooo many of these bigoted people ranting about every new good character being a person of color or a woman. Every single important character except Leia was a white male, Luke, Anakin, Han, Obi-Wan, Palpatine. Fans of Star Wars are all races, genders and personalities, so it's good for the universe to finally represent that.

I'm not sure exactly what should be spoilered and what is vague enough to be unnecessary so I'll be erring on the side of caution

I honestly don't see a place for Thrawn unless

Spoiler:

From the language used and dialogue it seems pretty clear that Kylo Ren

Spoiler:

It would certainly seem to fit with the thematic ties and structure similarities they're setting up... even if it is a bit on the nose.

I was the same before a month or so. Watched E4 and got so hooked that I even watched the prequels despite people warning me not to. Never too late bro.
