I liked the Vader scene at the end, when he's tearing shit up :)

I think the filmmakers had some issues finding a healthy middle ground between homage and winking at the camera. I have to say I cringed at Vader's pun and at the Evazan/Ponda Baba cameo. R2 and 3PO seemed a little forced too. Seemed like Edwards was pausing for applause whenever a familiar face popped up.

In a way this is Star Wars fan porn. This is kind of in some ways the movie Star Wars fans have wanted but been denied over and over and over again, lol. 

To be honest though, I'll take it lol. This movie's second half is just one continous nerd boner, I mean the space battle scenes I was grinning like a freaking idiot all throughout. Not even going to lie. The OT space designs and sense of battle is just ... sooooooooooooo good.

It's the best "action" Star Wars movie IMO since Return of the Jedi. Some of it (a lot of it) is basically "well fans want to see this", but hey I don't mind, lol.  

I can agree with that. The space battle at the end of the movie is probably the best single action set-piece in the saga.
