And that star killer sure knows how to aim and I'm surprised firing that weapon doesn't rip the atmosphere off the base planet.

Can't even make it that far. If you somehow did absorb all the mass and energy of a sun and crammed it into a single planet, you'd get something very close to a black hole.
On the other hand, the Starkiller does fire the energy faster than the speed of light anyways, so the gravity of a black hole isn't an issue....
2. What happened to Kylo Ren? He was able to stop a blaster shot in mid flight at the beginning of the movie and by the end he was beaten by an untrained girl? Sure, he was injured to start the fight, but he was shot by a bowcaster bolt? Couldn't he have stopped it? I guess we can explain that away by the fact that he just killed his father and was a bit off-kilter.
Darth Vader never would have had a temper tantrum like that.
So he got his butt handed to him due to his being entirely off-base.
They weakened the movie by weakening the primary antagonist, but definitely improved the character, IMHO."The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood"-Otto Von Bismarck

The good: Characters both new and old are compelling and gave performances that had a lot of heart.
- Battle scenes were well done. Seeing the X wings skimming over that lake was awesome.
- The First order and Kylo Ren were probably my favorite part of the movie. I enjoyed seeing the conflict in Ren play out and I look forward to learning about the First Order.
-Han's death damn near made me cry.
-The final light saber battle .
-Seeing the force used in new ways (like when Ren stopped the laser blast with the force)

Han Solo needed to die....not for story purposes though but for financial reasons...lol.
Harrison Ford is the film's biggest earner by some distance, netting himself an eight figure sum that is estimated to be somewhere in the $10 million to $20 million range. Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher, the other two main stars from the original trilogy, were both paid in the "low-seven-figure range."
Elsewhere, supporting actors Adam Driver and Oscar Isaac received "mid-to-high-six figures," while the movie's two young stars, John Boyega and Daisy Ridley, were both paid between $100,000 and $300,000.These salaries do not include back-end and percentage deals based on the film's profits. Variety reports that, unusually, these do not kick in until*The Force Awakens*crosses the $1 billion mark worldwide. To date, the movie has made $610 million at the global box office.
