Star Wars: The Force Awakens isn't the film I was looking for...

I'm probably one of the biggest Star Wars fans (or scholars with how much I know and have been obsessed with lol) in the world - been a fan since I first saw a new hope when I was 4 years old back in the 80's, I've been to Star Wars Celebration every single time, I have tons of books, comics, video games, action figures, statues, props, personally built lightsaber props etc - and the movie was a complete let down. The link is a review that was done and mirrors a lot of my sentiments exactly. People have to put the hype and rose tinted glasses aside and really look at the film for what it was, and what it wasn't. http://rogersmovienation.com/2015/12/16/movie-review-star-wars-redux-aka-the-force-awakens/ Nobody can seriously disagree with this review.

    Though, I did enjoy the movie. It was a New Hope 2.0. I understand staying true to "Star Wars"...but there was too much borrowed IMO. If I had never seen Episode IV...then this would not be an issue. Thus, originality...was lacking. My understanding is that Disney did not go with Lucas's original script and let JJ A. develop something new. After seeing what he came up with...it makes me curious as to what Lucas originally had in mind.
