    I kinda felt that half the movie was a giant commercial for Bowcasters now don't take me wrong they are one of my favorite bits of Tech in the whole SW universe, if you've played a game where one is available you know just how absolutely Potato Knishesing op that weapon is, and if you know the deep lore on Kashyyyk you know that some of it's fauna is slightly force-attuned (minor future sight) so the Wookies needed to fire projectiles so fast not even force users can react to it, eventually it became the Bowcaster, who aren't just fast, they hit like a grapeing dump truck trying to outrun the Juggernaut (apple), so much so that a couple of shots can down a AT-ST, which brings me to my main point:
    Kylo Ren took a bowcaster shot to the gut, and not only did he not die, he took a knee, counted to ten, and GOT UP, he took a shot form a weapon made to kill jedi/heavy armored mechanical units, and he decided to WALK IT OFF and that's why I think he's a great villain

      @zennx Half the movie makes no sense from a physics/tech point of view, so just ignore it.

        @nerthos actually Kylo Ren being able to stand like that can be explained when you take into account that the Force is basically the Deus Ex Machina to the whole SW universe, it allows you to see the future and become faster stronger and prolong your life (Yoda) survive massive permanent damage that would kill your average human (Vader) orcontrol your pain to the point you can WALK OFF A WOUND CAUSED BY WHAT IS ESSENTIALLY A GAUSS CANNON

          @zennx There's also the fact that removing the fuses will open doors on ships, when in reality all that does is shutting down the circuit in the state it is at the moment (removing power from the doors) and that the baddies' main weapon apparently used the entire energy of a start to blow up a planet, which as I explained a few weeks ago, is like using a car battery to power a laser pointer. Not to mention that'd ruin the planet's orbit AND freeze everything on it to death, and probably cause a black hole in the middle of it when sucking up the star due to compressing that mass into such a small space. The movie is pretty damn stupid as a sci-fi movie, you have to look at it as an action one.
