Hyperspace Theories Episode 15: The Force Awakens Arrives!

AMC TFA IMAX poster oneThe Force has awakened. In the December episode of Hyperspace Theories, Tricia, B.J., and Kay share their initial reactions to Episode VII. We discuss the characters, plot, and more after multiple viewings of the film, with minimal additional information from opening-weekend creator interviews or the opening-day book releases. We also address the storytelling decisions to withhold certain key information from the audience in the first movie of the new trilogy, as well as the trailers and other marketing containing imagery and dialogue that do not appear in the final film.

This episode contains discussion of all of the major spoilers from The Force Awakens from the opening minutes of the show, so steer clear if you haven’t yet seen the movie.
