Star Wars: The Force Awakens: Difference between revisions

* [[Rebellious Prisoner]]: When he realizes that he can't leave Jakku to the mercy of Kylo Ren, Poe Dameron gives BB8 the message about Luke's location and tells the droid to run, while he fires on the Stormtroopers to distract them. It goes about as well as you expect, especially since Kylo Ren can stop laser blasts in mid-air, but he snarks how Kylo Ren seems to enjoy being the dark and broody type. Kylo Ren manages to get BB8's location out of him with a mind probe, but Poe fights it with all his willpower.

** Rey does the same thing when Kylo Ren recognizes her as the scavenger girl that helped the droid, knocks her out, and takes her to his ship for interrogation. She manages to resist the mind probe fully, and then improvises a Jedi Mind trick to convince a Stormtrooper to free her, leave the cell door unattended, and drop his weapon for her.

* [[Time Skip]]: When it comes to the franchise's timeline, the films range from being set several months to a decade from each other. ''The Force Awakens'' breaks the trend by taking ''thirty years'' after the events of ''[[Return of the Jedi].]''

* [[Vestigial Empire]]: The First Order is essentially the continuation of the Galactic Empire after they've been hiding on the outskirts of the galaxy for around 30 years.
