Solid point. Let's put him in the open field vs a 10,000 ton walking stilt machine with laser cannons.

Diabeetus.
Brimley would diabeetus-choke the AT-AT with his giants because it's the right thing to do and the tasty way to do it.
With sad countenance and downcast eyes, Aeneas wends his way, quitting the cavern, and ponders in his mind the dark issues.

I heard that if you stare at Mr. Brimley you get diabetes and your dick falls off. :o
There is a time for good men to do bad things.

For fuck sake, 1984 is NOT an instruction manual!

In my opinion, I did like Episode VII and I thought that it kind of "redeemed" Star Wars for a whole new generation.
It's gonna age bad.
I really can't just walk away from this but (and I have to say this):

It probably will not age as bad as you may think. I mean they used practical effects and yeah the story does seem pretty basic, but with some interesting stuff within it that is there (obviously) to set up the other films. But, it does have a beginning, a middle, and an end. Sure not all of the characters lived up to their pre-movie hype (i.e. Captain Phasma turned out to just suck) but it was the film that (in my opinion) made people start loving Star Wars again- after the terrible prequels. IMO, it has a place in the hearts of Star Wars fans and that will unsure that it will live on.

You just called it mouthwash that has basic story beats. It will age badly.

You have your speculation but this was the film that people have already fallen in love with it, even though you may have a problem with it. Personally, I don't but I do know that it hit the same beats as ANH, but then again, I feel that the Prequels were so bad that they had to do something safe like this if they want to continue making Star Wars.
