I'm wondering what happened to the rebel fleet after ROTJ. Seems wierd that, with such influential people like Leia and Akbar in it, the resistance would be limited to X-wings. What happened to the capital ships and the assortment of B/A/Y wing craft?
I saw TFA on it's release day and I enjoyed it. Good seeing the old guard again, Harrison Ford steals the show but I thought the new blood didn't suffer too much for it and had plenty of opportunities to shine, especially the X-wing pilot who helps Finn defect from the remenant.
The Force Awakens does feel like classic Star Wars. I dare say it is about A New Hope/Return of the Jedi level of quality, but not quite reaching that of Empire Strikes Back.
By the way, did anyone else think for a minute like I did that the new deathstar equivialent blew up coruscant in it's first firing? For a second I thought the new movies had destroyed the main setting of the prequel movies as a "screw you".
