Star Wars Episode VII

19 years after Endor, Luke Skywalker, Grandmaster of the Jedi Order, had vanished. In his place rose a new, sinister foe, the FIRST ORDER, determined to bring back the sins of the EMPIRE. Through subterfuge and corrupt dealings, they grow stronger the longer they go unchecked. They will stop at nothing until they have fully wiped out any trace of the Republic and everything it stands for.

The NEW REPUBLIC, repeating the mistakes of the OLD REPUBLIC, is trapped in an echo chamber of partisan squabbling leaving it blind to the threat of the FIRST ORDER, and powerless to stop it.

Going behind the back of the NEW REPUBLIC, General Leia Organa, along with many veterans of the Galactic Civil War, leads a paramilitary junta, dubbed the RESISTANCE, to stop this threat before it rears its ugly head. To this end, she has sent her most daring pilot on a secret mission: to find Luke Skywalker, and bring him back for one last fight…

Outline

  • BB-8 detects the First Order coming to Jakku, warns Poe, in the tent with Lor San Tekka, of their arrival.
  • The First Order halts Poe’s escape by blowing up the pilot’s X-Wing, but BB-8 flees into the desert.
  • Kylo Ren kills Lor San Tekka, and massacres the village, before combing the deserts of Jakku to find BB-8. Poe is taken prisoner and is transferred to the FInalizer.
  • Finn, a Stormtrooper, hesitates for a moment after witnessing another Stormtrooper die, and is reprimanded for it aboard the Finalizer, Kylo’s Star Destroyer. Meanwhile, Kylo Ren interrogates Poe, using the force to forcibly break through Poe’s mind to find any intel on where BB-8 is, only to find nothing.
  • Rey scavenges parts from a crashed ISD, and runs into BB-8. BB-8 uses their cuteness to guilt Rey into taking them in.
  • Rey has a moment to herself, as BB-8 sleeps for the night. Playing with a Rebel pilot doll, she looks towards the night sky, and tries to remember her parents, who abandoned her on Jakku. The Finalizer is is visible in orbit.
  • Finn and Poe meet up after the interrogation. They steal a TIE Whirlwind and escape, with Finn shooting down the pursuing TIEs with the rotating cannons. However, the fighter is shot down by the point defense of the Finalizer, and crashes down at Jakku. Finn drags Poe’s body out, checking for any signs of life, before carrying him upon finding signs of life.
  • Rey and BB/8 are at the market, with the former trying to sell scrap, before she ends up finding Finn in the body glove of the Stormtrooper Armor, carrying the unconscious body of Poe with him. BB-8 tried to attack Finn, but then the First Order attacks the group, forcing them to run.
  • Finn and Rey steal the Millenium Falcon with BB-8 and Poe in tow. During the ensuing dogfight, Rey starts showing signs of force sensitivity.
  • After Finn and Rey evade the First Order, Rey makes some quick repairs to the Falcon, having blown some components. Suddenly, they get pulled into the tractor beam of a cargo ship. Finn and Rey hide Poe, BB-8, and themselves in the smuggling space under the floor.
  • Han and Chewie board the Falcon, and find them on the ship. Poe wakes up around this time, banging against the floor grate, to which BB-8 rejoyces.
  • After narrowly escaping Rath-tars and two criminal gangs after Han and Chewie, the Falcon jumps to Takodana. In the pursuit, Rey accidentally crushes a hallway, killing some of the gang members.
  • Han confronts Rey on the feat, and comforts her over how terrified she was in the moment. It’s around this point that Rey feels homesick for Jakku, wishing to go back to wait for her parents, and fearful of her own powers. Han gives Rey one of his pistols for self defense.
  • The Falcon arrives at Takodana. Finn, BB-8, Rey, and Poe are dropped off to meet with Maz Kanata at her castle. Unbeknownst to them, they were tracked through Hyperspace by the First Order.
  • Rey is given Anakin Skywalker’s lightsaber by Maz, but recoils in panic at the memories associated with it(the prequel flashbacks). She warps the room around her as a result, and bolts out of the castle. Finn takes the saber instead.
  • The First Order attacks Takodana, led by Kylo Ren. Finn fights off a baton wielding First Order Commando with the lightsaber, while Poe and Han are shooting their way back to the Falcon.
  • Kylo Ren finds Rey after getting separated from the group. Though Rey’s shots are spot on, and her power being immense, Kylo captures her, though not before sustaining some injuries, including a cracked mask. BB-8 escapes the conflict.
  • The Resistance arrives to fend off the First Order, with Poe’s Squadron(Blue Squadron) announcing their arrival over Poe’s comm.
  • A Resistance gunship lands, with General Leia stepping off of it. Han and Leia reunite, though that reunion is somewhat tense. BB-8 arrives to inform the group that the First Order has kidnapped Rey.
  • Kylo and Hux report to Supreme Leader Snoke, both attempting to blame the other for BB-8 escaping and trying to take credit for Rey’s capture. Snoke dismisses Kylo after praising him for Rey’s capture and warning him of another failure, leaving him and Hux alone.
  • Snoke asks if the trap is set, to which Hux replies that ‘the degenerates and the weaklings of the Resistance and the Republic’ will fall for it “like a fatass to hot chocolate.”
  • Finn, Poe, Han, and Leia make it to the base on D’Qar, where C-3PO meets up with the group.
  • After a tense reunion, Han and Leia split up, with Han and Chewie taking Finn to Ilum/Starkiller Base and Leia taking Poe and BB-8 to Hosnian Prime.
  • Han, Chewie and Finn jump to Ilum, arriving in-atmosphere. Finn reveals that he was kidnapped as a kid, and forced to serve as a stormtrooper. They hijack a snowspeeder from a pair of snow troopers and sneak into Starkiller Base. They will need to shut down the anti-capital ship guns while also rescuing Rey, all before the Resistance attacks Ilum.
  • Leia and Poe are at Hosnian Prime, pleading their case to the Senate with proof of the First Order, but Leia gets blamed for both collaborating with the FO due to Vader being her father and dismissed over a perceived obsession with the past. Leia okays the Resistance attack anyways.
  • A sympathetic general by the name of Olga Santhe decides to assist the Resistance, bringing with her a New Republic Warhammer(shield breaking ship) and her Acclamator, Eye of the Storm
  • Rey gets awoken to Kylo forcibly probing through her mind for anything and everything and resists as much as possible, with visions of future events, past events(including Kylo killing Jedi with the Knights of Ren) and a very brutal mental fight happening in her head. Kylo gets forcibly thrown out of her mind, leaving Rey completely exhausted and the cell destroyed. Kylo destroys the hallway outside of Rey’s cell in a temper tantrum.
  • Finn, Chewie, and Han get found by Phasma. Han immediately shoots Phasma, only to have the bolt bounce off. This kicks off a firefight/duel, with Finn trying to disable rather than kill the regular stormtroopers. The Anti-capital ship gun controls get shut down and destroyed by Chewie.
  • The Warhammer, the Storm, and the Resistance Fleet jump into Ilum, and begin their attack. The Warhammer pierces the planetary shield to release fighters to attack the base, with Blue Team aiming to destroy the superlaser.
  • Rey somewhat recovers, and is guided by the force to meet back up with Finn and Han. However, Kylo finds them before they can escape. Han tries to bring Kylo back to the light, on Leia’s request, but Kylo stabs him, causing Chewie to shoot the incel in the leg.
  • As the fight goes on, it becomes apparent to the Resistance that there isn’t as many forces on Starkiller Base compared to reports about the First Order, which Olga waves off.
  • Finn, Chewie, and Rey run back to the Falcon in a snowspeeder chase involving Kylo Ren chasing after them as the ground starts to crack. At the Falcon, Finn in a duel, before Rey pulls the saber to herself and wails on Kylo with the Force.
  • All too late, Hux hijacks every frequency, declaring that the Resistance has failed, and the Republic shall die, as the superlaser fires on Hosnian Prime, with the Warhammer caught in the blast’s path and Olga shown being melted alive(like the Ark of the Covenant scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark). A sequence shows Hosnian Prime, Naboo, Chandrilla, Sullust, and Yavin IV getting destroyed, with Bespin getting set on fire.
  • Rey freezes in shock at the loss of billions of lives being annihilated at once, allowing Kylo an opening to strike Rey down by slicing her arm off, causing Rey to shove him into a tree at 400 mph
  • Chewie, having brought Finn aboard the Falcon, shoots Kylo again in pure rage, before taking the injured Rey onto the Falcon before taking off. Phasma arrives shortly after with Kylo Ren’s shuttle to pick the incel up and drag him to the Finalizer.
  • Hux picks that very moment to gloat about Ilum being rigged to blow up, prompting the Resistance to get the fuck off the planet ASAP, with the First Order having started their Blitzkrieg across the galaxy.
  • As the Resistance retreats to D’Qar, Ilum blows up in the back. As they get to D’Qar, sad music from Episode III(After Anakin killed the Seperatist leaders/when Ahsoka had to fight the clones during Order 66 in TCW) plays, before being interrupted by Kylo’s theme as they get pursued by a very large armada, led by a Mandator IV. The film ends as the Mandator IV’s siege cannons charge up, aimed at the planet below.
