Go play some videogames, autist.

>no supreme leader
who is Kylo now?
they literally paraphrase "king is dead long live the king"

Even at the start of the movie the resistance was ridiculously small.

The fact that they had nobody respond to their call for help toward the end is also disturbing because it means they should not be able to easily write in reinforcements.
The resistance simply isn't even an organization anymore with how few people they are.

kek

I dont get why you autists are mad about bombs
>implying a huge mass does not have gravity

>The Empire has been replaced by the Republic
>The First Order are just the remnants of Imperial forces, have no actual political control or power

Who are the Resistance "resisting", again?

they planned this so that in the next movie, when the final battle is about to be at it's end, hundreds of ships will warp in and save the day, ships of all different races and species and they will start spamming lasers and shit and it will be an epic space battle

kylo will disappear (for future franchises) and rey will be the savior of the universe

THey are resisting the republic by attacking the first order because the republic does not want to deal with finishing off the empire aka the first order, in essence resisting the order to stand down and not shoot the bad guys.

didn't you read the opening text crawl? It said the first order reigns.

>first order has no supreme leader and has like 1000 troopers left
>still rule the galaxy

Gotta love that subversive writing.

>kylo will disappear (for future franchises) and rey will be the savior of the universe
>implying

They'll keep the trilogy formula because autistic fanboys won't stand any derivation from it, and they'll start another trilogy with a prequel expanding on the backstory between each episode like TFA > Rogue One > TLJ > Han Solo movie

>It said the first order reigns.

In The Force Awakens?

Do you wake up in the morning, thinking "how can I be edgy?"

>be luke skywalker
>learn the ways of the force in a few days
>BTFO the ultimate power in the universe with a lucky photon torpedo, killing thousands of Imperial soldiers in the process

he's not even being edgy that's the fucking movie

if you haven't seen it yet.. fucking don't

kylo is going to be the reformed formerly evil master of the next franchise, he disappears out of guilt

it's not like he used to practice on womp rats in his T-16 back home or anything

TLJ
Read it senpai
starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Opening_crawl

He didn't learn anything, he just used his instincts. He could barely pull his lightsaber, while Rey is lifting tons of rocks with no strain.

I thought the resistance were the Republican military but with very little actual support from the Republic for no reason? I remember for sure at the start of the trilogy people talking about how leftists always need to feel like the underdog and the resistance despite actually being the mainstream

According to nu-canon, the Republic dismantled their military to prevent war. It's really ridiculous.

In this movie he would be chastised for killing animals and have his superiors screaming at him when he turns off his targetting computer

USA won every single battle in Vietnam but "lost" the war

Haven't seen TLJ, but the Resistance existed in TFA (when the First Order was still presumably on the fringes of the galaxy)

Post tfw by the end of episode IX, they fill the Aluminum Falcon with explosives, smash it into the side of the Death Solar System while shouting Allahu Ackbar
>#Poweful #Poignant #PBUH

Yeah that timeskip in this movie changed a lot huh

And the british won the first Boer war right?

They didn't really lose, just decided to leave.

See the problem is, the TLJ takes place seconds after TFA ends. The republic was JUST destroyed. The FO hasn't spread and taken over the galaxy yet at all. They're still confined to the tiny corner of the galaxy they've been occupying.

Right now, the entire galaxy has no ruler other than the local planetary government/system alliances.

It's just another shitty "Turn off your brain so you're not in pain at how shit our writing is" moment that the movies are full of.

Seriously, the FO ruling the entire galaxy in under a week is nothing compared to the fact that Rey went from foceless girl to the most powerful Jedi to ever exist, even moreso than vader, and master star pilot, engineer, and translator, in the same amount of time.

People who praise TFA/TLJ for having a strong female lead also refuse to acknowledge she isn't strong because she's gone through the hero's struggle. She's strong because she's a mary sue with nothing bad ever happening to her which makes her a totally bland character and there is zero suspense or loss or drama because she's so covered in plot armor nothing can touch her. If you give her another in universe week, she'll be able to blow up planets like the death star with a snap of her fingers.

It still doesn't make sense for "the Resistance" to be "resisting" a rebellion on the fringes of the galaxy, unless "the Resistance" only exists on planets under the First Order's control.

Unless you're a studio executive manipulating fanboy nostalgia for the original trilogy, that is

>Unless you're a studio executive manipulating fanboy nostalgia for the original trilogy, that is
Congratulations. You've taken your first step into a larger world

they are joke figures inside the first order

>seven planets out of thousands are destroyed
>the entire New Republic has been lost

Kill yourself shill

Try billions. Billions of planets in a galaxy.

"If you kill your enemies, they win" - straight out of Justin Trudeau's book on warfare.

>parks their entire fleet in low orbit
>oops my entire fleet is now gone
>not even jjtrek was this stupid to do this
it just keeps getting worse and worse

Trump.

That was utterly baffling. Apparently literally everybody gave up. What, was every single New Republic ship in low orbit around one of those three planets nuked in TFA? Is there not a single fucking person in the galaxy other than the 20 on the Millennium Falcon that even care about the First Order? Because that's fucking retarded.
I'm pretty sure the Rebels lost more people on Hoth than the Resistance has at their peak.

Yeah what the heck was that. Even the admiral ackbar planet joined the first order? Dumb.

>seconds after TFA ends
then what was the whole DUNT DA NA NA part about?

Rian and jj fucking up bad

This is in the movie.

>Have border with aggressive first order
>Also have frequent problems with pirates and smugglers
>keep LITERALLY ALL SHIPS ships docked at the capital instead of deployed along border to respond to any possible attack and handle police/customs operations

It's just
Uhh Snoke is bad we gotta beat him guys!

It's fine womp rats and the targetting computer are toxic systemic masculinity. Luke has to let go and embrace his feelings (feminism) to attack.

He's still shooting things down a hole though, but at least he shot two torpedos so that's polyamory.

Again, don't think hard about it. A time skip would have made perfect sense. But nope, it happens literally SECONDS after the first one ends. This is funny because the rebels had no fucking idea about the starkiller base yet know about the dreadnaughts and snoke's massive star destroyer.

I still don't get how the first order has more millitary power than the new republic. How the fuck did they went from being the republic to a resistance?

The fucking kikes did this. Kill every nigger mudslime and you'll erase stupidity from the planet.

maybe you should pay some attention

What are the chances that the Resistance will happen across an old CIS droid production facility, and use that to bolster their numbers?
