I also loved that they did such a good job showing the sheer magnitude of things, I remember reading that was something they wanted to do this time around, the rebels running from the walker when you could actually see someone standing next to a footpad, cruiser over the city, the death star on the horizon, all very cool, and they keep the hair styles and cheesy 70s mustaches!

Loved all the little references to the other movies including the blatantly obvious guy she bumped into, same guy that had Obi cut his arm off, for the same thing

Couldn't agree more on both points. To see Vader in his prime was awesome. The way he just cut a swath through those guys at the end. Damn.

One thing for me I really liked was how they tied the little things into matching A New Hope. Like the control panels in the Death Star. They looked circa 1977. Great continuity.

and the last guy, the guy that handed off the disc, how you see the light saber just get stuck through the door and realize he stuck it through that guy then the door, things like that, but again how did Darth get so wimpy in literally an hour
