I guess that was intended. He looks the carbon copy beautiful that Anakin Skywalker embodied in Episode III. Kylo strives to be Vader, but fails every step of the way. He's impulsive, fearful, and not properly trained. He's getting smeared and bullied by his equals again and again, and he just swallows it. There's no need for him to wear the silly mask, but still he does. That's his character, he's a purposefully pathetic tool. I wouldn't say he's a bad villain (a bad main villain he'd definitely be), but a lot depends on how future instalments treat his story arc.

He's a poser who only knows one or two things fairly well. He can stop a blaster shot mid air and delves into the mind of people. But he sucks completely at such elementary things as Force Pull.

He's not a Sith as well; and I do doubt that the new 'emperor' is a Sith to begin with.

I actually think that's more or less accurate. Kylo's new master is either not trained in the force himself, or is holding back on purpose. When the Sloth emperor says he'd like to conclude Kylo's training, it's heavily implied that he wants to kill him.

Not that easily swayed... he has to keep reminding himself what the dark side offers, and he keeps punching himself in his wounded side to keep the fury up during an intense light saber battle.

Thing is, it's not his opinion. He hasn't seen the movie.

Really? I didn't see it as that at all. And if he wanted him dead why order the general to save him from the exploding planet-base? Just leave him there.

It's just a wild guess of course, but there could be some kind of harvesting going on. If the Sloth guy does possess Sith training methods, I'll say he's a godawful teacher. So I'd rather go with other theories here.

And, of course, the German dub could kill or add to the original tone a good deal. :(

Is that why you keep calling him Sloth? :D Or is it about him being lazy, sitting on his ass while others build bases and blow shit up for him?

Did anyone else get the preview of the new animated movie that featured a sloth?

That was hilarious. :D

I only got the previews for Batman v Superman (which looked a lot better in Imax) and Warcraft (and the 3D in that was really migrane inducingly bad). No sloths for me :(

Yes XD

Ice Age? No. I saw the preview for the Jungle Book, which looks spectacular.

I saw a resemblance of some kind. Shaved Sloth. Or something. :)

Saw, the movie today. After the whole hype on the net and the high grades on IMDB the movie kind off felt flat for me and not even close to the grades it got. It was an ok movie but I just have a feeling it was kind of barebones. Probably cause its a remake of A New Hope. Eitherway will see next december what Star Wars VIII brings.

Next december is the spin-off Rogue One. Episode VIII comes in 2017.

Ok, thanks. I know they have 6-7 movies scheduled but wasn't quite sure which one is it going to be. I know they are making a movie about Han Solo and Chewie too.

Well, I thought I wouldn't, but I liked it. Quite a lot actually. More of the same instead of shallow and pointless tons of dialogue.
