Ah, but don't you know that Jar-Jar is actually an evil Sith Lord with the most developed mind-influencing powers ever seen in the Star Wars universe? Yes, it is really he, not Emperor Palpatine, who is the real evil in the series...

Why, then, does Palpatine get to rule the Empire?

Then you aren't looking hard enough. You need to lock yourself in a room with nothing except a DVD player and a copy of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Do not eat or drink for twelve days, do not sleep,[/i] simply watch the video over and over until all you can think about is the amazing Jar-Jar Binks.

   Emphasis mine. This will kill you; 3 days is generally the limit of how long one can survive without water. Some have lived longer, 8-10 days, but twelve would almost certainly be your demise.

The original trilogy was filmed earlier. Also, search up the reddit theory about how he's evil. I would link it but there's swearing in the comments section.

Da Theories

I found the theory from reddit on a youtube video. Nothing seems bad in the comments here.

I saw The Force Awakens today... it was amazing! I'm disappointed with Kilo Ren, though. When he took off his mask, I was expecting some scarred, old warrior... not... whatever that was. He wasn't as cool after that :/

Also, I'm not sure that I liked Poe not being dead. I didn't dislike him. It's just that he was a minor character and it would have been better for him to have died and not appear all like "Yeah, I'm not dead... Surprise!"

Other than that, it was a very good movie and I would happily watch it again.
Just pretend there is something interesting and unique written here... I have nothing to say.

When Kylo was about to take off his mask, I was hoping for some young and cuteish guy.  I wasn't disappointed. ;D  That... hair...

Cute? Cute?! He's a Sith! They are NOT supposed to be cute!
Several people I was with actually said he was pretty (they also told me that someone my age should have thought he was cute. But I thought he looked anything but cute. And especially not intimidating, which was what he was supposed to be).

Who says that Sith have to be frightfully ugly all the time? ;D  And I think his apparent insecurity and lack of self-control make him interesting and set him apart from a lot of others.  And his youthfulness partly explains the mask - he's gotta be intimidating in some way.

Russa thought he was ugly, Amber thought he was somewhere in-between, and I think he's sort of... interesting-looking, but also cute in an unusual sort of way.  I think it depends on what stage of puberty you're in. :P  (Russa's the youngest out of us three.)

He should have been intimidating, but he is only an inexperienced Sith.

But he seems to have great control of the Force...

Can we talk about that one major death scene, though... that hurt on so many levels.  It was so twisted. :(

To be honest, I was expecting Han to die from the moment he walked onto the bridge. I didn't imagine Abrams would let his main villain be turned back to good so easily.

Eulaliaaa!

I doubt how attractive people find him has to do with how old someone is. If it is... well, I already know there's something wrong with my brain.

And yes. That death scene was really sad. I haven't seen the other Star Wars movies in years, though it was still terrible :(

The link is to a youtube video, which is the reddit theory by some other guy, without the nasty comments full of swearzies.
