Imagine giving McD another try after 10 years

Rating: 7/10 (2 January 2016)

So you had been driving past that burger joint every now and then but the memories are mixed and you always stopped short at going in from the memories of the pale aftertaste, the disappointment from your last visit. Still, there is this vibrant -positive- association that you have from childhood... a promise, something new! And then the day comes where you see the opportunity unfold, and it is only logical that you stop by for a burger.
The smell, the taste, it all comes back!
And so it went... I was smiling, well into the first part, from the taste and the greatness of this experience. Just like it used to be!
Only until about halfway in, as my senses had adapted, my brain had started to fade out the special effects, and I was left sitting there chewing on this clot of meat with nothing authentic to it.
A warmed up soup, a copy-paste adventure - but the technology to lure your brain into thinking it is all wonderful, the recipe has been perfected by the master chefs of Disney
Now for a minimal spoiler: Was there nothing good about this movie? Yes - the red target cross-hairs of the X-Wings... it's like holding on to an absurd argument until it is eventually accepted: simply by repeating the outdated graphics from the 1980's consistently into this new movie, the whole world became consistent graphically, and old star wars suddenly tasted fresher than ever.
Ready to be lured in for crap food - once again in 2017.
