but it was stated that the romance being set up will be not what people are expecting
and believe me, slapping Finn and Rey together is beyooooond cliche
As for 'the people', which group are they talking about? Because approximately 99.9% of the internet is all about Finn/Poe.
The vast majority of people I've talked to about it haven't even considered Poe/Finn
most straight folk will ignore queer subtext until it's impossible to ignore
I'm sure you're all familiar with the term "gal pals"
To be fair, in this specific instance I don't think there was much romantic subtext between them in the movie. Heck I don't think there was much romantic subtext between anyone at all in the entire film.
Which was actually a nice change of pace, in a way.
Finn/Leia "Are you trying to seduce me, General..."
Wait is she still Organa, or is she Solo? Did Leia and Han get married? If they got married, did they get divorced or are they just separated?
I think Leia would keep the Organa name, married or not. I mean, she is royalty, she made a name for herself as a general... I just don't see her changing it.
People who use the A-Wing in the state it's in right now should be thrown in a gulag, though
Seriously?
The state it's in NOW?
I havn't played since before Christmas. Is it still in the same state it was 2 months ago? This bums me out.
The real crime is that the developers havn't fixed it yet.
They've had enough time to rebalance it, if people want to play the A-wing after all this time I don't fault them.

I always do better in an X-Wing than an A-Wing.

I believe in the EU they went with Organa-Solo, for what that's worth.
I really crave a Star Wars TCG, I know there was one but that isn't available anymore and i'm not sure the ruleset appeals to me
Galaxy of Heroes has enough card game elements to entice me but it doesn't go as far as i'd like
Also I tried to start the 3D Clone Wars cartoon but I just can't get over the visual style. Every one is just so stiff and bug-eyed, it's really upsetting.
han probably should have changed his name to organa, marrying into royalty
that's how it works right? as an armchair alderaani historian I am pretty sure no one is alive to contradict me
han organa
on second thought that feels vaguely pornish
on third thought that is not necessarily a con?
I'll have you know that Leia gathered together the remaining Alderaani after the incident and formed a new colony and I've already placed a call to the Alderaan defense council.
That's unbelievably cool. Your new name is cool guy. Let's have sex.

so I hear that battlefront has a starfighters-only mode, and ever since TFA I've had an insatiable desire to fly x-wings etc
considering that I can't acquire the original X Wing/TIE games, how wise of a choice would it be to essentially get Battlefront JUST for dogfights, because if the spaceships are worth it, I'm gonna get it tomorrow
One thing re: relationships/shipping I've seen tossed around a lot that is surprising to me is
Writing off Finn/Rey as strictly platonic/friendship
Like
Yeah she kissed him on the forehead but dude was in a coma and also I have seen plenty of romantically engaged couples do that before, they might just want to save the first proper kiss for a later film
That isn't to say that I want them to be a thing or think for sure that is where the6 are going but I absolutely got the vibe of them being into each other from the film

I actually went into TFA thinking that Poe/Finn was what was going to happen, thanks to some cute fan art of the new trio. I could see it working in VIII.

Most of us 'straight folk' don't really 'ship' people from films. We just kinda watch the god damned movie, you silly goose.
actually it's extremely common for straight people to have gay ships (in fact "slash fiction" or fiction based around shipping and sex is basically considered to have begun in a major way with Star Trek and Kirk/Spock) so calm your ass down

I'm agreeing because I didn't see Poe/Finn until a friend of mine suggested it, and now I can't unsee it

Yes, absolutely wrong.
Maz is all about that Wookiee schlong.
I'm thinking it'll be Rey/Poe, which gives us the single-ethnicity/hetero easy option
Which is actually what I expected going into the movie, until Rey and Poe never meet
So... that's... a thing
I'm more used to "cousins".

yeah I find it hard to believe that the last princess of alderaan would marry a known smuggler

When I saw the hilt bit in the trailers, I thought it was the dumbest idea ever.
But they did manage to have him use it to his advantage in a fight. So I got to admit it's at least kind of functional.

So because you seem to think all light-skinned people look alike gives you the privilege of engaging in ethic erasure? Cool.

For clarification the quotes around those words mean something. Don't get upset please.

could have leaned a little heavier into that joke :P
