In a random comment on a totally unrelated post by a website almost diametrically-opposed to the very idea of science-fiction, some troll knew that he could ruin the day of thousands of people by revealing a plot point of a movie. That’s how deeply-entrenched in popular culture Star Wars really is. It compiled the greatest pieces of goal-scoring and play-making in the career of long-time Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes, and in the comments, some dick had posted a spoiler, a big one, for The Force Awakens. The reason I know this is because of a video I saw on Facebook. The more I think about it, the surer I become that the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens was the biggest cinematic event in my twenty-seven-year existence. STAR WARS: EPISODE VII – THE FORCE AWAKENS IS PART OF THE CURRENT STAR WARS CANON.

While it might essentially be a retread of A New Hope and a bunch of other Original Trilogy story beats, Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens revitalizes the franchise with a youthful energy, a compelling villain, and a fine cast.
