“He's big and hulking and terrifying, but he's also kind of a huge loser..." - Steve on Kylo Ren
On this edition of We ❤️ Movies, we’re heading back to a galaxy far, far away to chat about the great, yet divisive start to the Sequel Trilogy, Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens!
How great is Harrison Ford in this movie? Wasn’t it about time Star Wars got a little bloodier? Wouldn’t we all want to sit down and have a drink at Maz’s sick bar? How do so many Star Wars people magically understand droid speak? And how much stolen valor is Kylo Ren working with here? PLUS: Be careful when you’re bringing your antique family collectibles onto The Lightsaber Roadshow on PBS!
Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens stars Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Adam Driver, Lupita Nyong’o, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Anthony Daniels, Max von Sydow, Peter Mathew, Gwendoline Christie, Jones Suotamo, Simon Pegg, and Harrison Ford as Han Solo; directed by JJ Abrams.
