Re: Star Wars: The Force Awakens
I think no matter which way the movie was made, there will always be I satisfied viewers. On my part, I avoided reading anything about the movie or seeing any trailers so that I could go in with a blank slate. It didn't bother me that much that they pretty much recycled the plot of ANH, I just wish some of it could have been different. I especially could have done without a 3rd Death Star.
I think there was enough hinting at Rey's background without revealing g everything. It was obvious her mystery is meant to carry over into the next film and not just laziness in failing to give her a clear background. I don't think she was a former Jedi student sent into hiding because of Kylo Ren killing off all the students; she was very young at the time she was left behind on Jakuu, and she and Ren appear to be about the same age.
The best character for me was Kylo Ren. Many have complained that he was whiny and non-intimidating, which I think was the whole point. He was hiding behind his mask to make himself look threatening, but he was just an immature angry kid who wanted to be super bad.
Han's death: I could see that coming a mile away. The minute he showed up in the Falcon pretty much sealed it. He was an old guy escorting two youngsters, pretty much Obi Wan's role. It actually made it more stressful anticipating his death. I have to say I was depressed for a couple of weeks after I saw the movie because of his death. It made sense to kill him off at that point, but oh my God what an emotional impact.

Re: TNG S6: Tapestry
Unlike most comments here, I did not like this episode. In fact I found it very dull. However it was worth watching just to see Captain Picard wake up to find Q next to him in bed. :D
