The Force Awakens picks up 30 years after Return of the Jedi , meaning that some time has passed since we've seen old friends like Han and Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) - but seemingly not enough time for their exploits to have become myths that people doubt ever happened . It reads as an oversight on Abrams' part, but is there a reasonable explanation for how this happened? There just might

The first of two entries from Alfred Hitchcock on this list, Psycho is full of smaller details that make it worth watching the movie over and over again - including a brief cameo from Hitchcock himself. During one of the final shots of the movie, as Norman Bates is sat in the police station after being arrested, Hitchcock subtly superimposed the image of Mrs Bates' mummified skull onto actor Anthony Perkins' face. To make things even creepier, not all of the theatrical prints of the movie included this detail, so audiences in the 1960s could spot the skull in one screening and then find it gone in another - leaving them to wonder if they'd ever really seen it at al

Look, in my own opinion, I've never been a big fan of prequels/sequels that go out of their way to shoehorn every single familiar or fan-favorite character into the new narrative. Prequel appearances by characters like C-3PO and R2D2 (oh-so-conveniently present in the saga of Anakin Skywalker as they were in the saga of Luke Skywalker) still irks me almost as much as Jar-Jar Binks. On the other hand: an appearance by Ghost Palpatine is intriguing, since we've never seen Sith ghosts onscreen before - and Gamedealhq.Com if we're going that route, an appearance by trust-old Obi-Wan's spirit doesn't seem like all that bad of a cameo to

"We picked Asylum because it not only describes the setting - an insane asylum run by Jessica Lange's character, which was formerly a tuberculosis ward - but also signifies a place of haven for the unloved and the unwanted. This year's theme is about sanity and tackling real life horro

Subliminal messaging isn't always about advertising. Some filmmakers use it to try and create a certain emotional effect in their audience, without them consciously knowing why they felt that way. The first thirty minutes of Gaspar Noé’s film Irreversible contains an extremely low frequency background noise that is virtually inaudible to humans, but capable of causing uneasiness and nausea. Noé deliberately inserted the noise into his soundtrack to make people feel sensations of disgust while watching his movie. But trust us - it's far from the only disturbing part of the mo

Marvel's Avengers universe is based on fantastic figures, science, and otherworldly adventures, but they're apparently even hard to believe for the everyday characters inside the films themselves. When Ant-Man villain Darren Cross references the old stories of a miniature superhero working in secret, he claims they're nothing but "propaganda, Tales to Astonish." He's not wrong, either. Ant-Man's unbelievable powers actually debuted in the comic "Tales to Astonish," making this one of the most meta moments Marvel has ever featured, and a major statement about the hero's entire story for the viewers who manage to catch

So by the time we get to The Force Awakens , it has been about 53 years since Jedi had a large presence in the galaxy. That is more than enough time for a youngster like Rey to be unsure of their existence. Particularly since Rey has been rumored to have spent her entire life on Jakku (which has the appearance of an Outer Rim planet), it's likely that she's only heard rumblings and rumors about one all-powerful Force controlling everything. Even Han, who was around 29 years old during A New Hope , said he never saw any evidence of it. The Star Wars galaxy is a vast place, and those who live on non-Republic planets don't concern themselves with the "big city" happenings since it has no effect on their lifest

Aside from pop culture references, the Wachowskis also managed to include one massive hint that most fans probably never noticed. When Neo finally confronts the Architect of the Matrix in the first sequel, he learns that the creator of the system has been following him his entire life (or lives) - and the first movie already offered proof. When Neo is first captured by enemy Agents, a bank of surveillance monitors shows him being interrogated. The exact same monitors the Architect is surrounded by in the next movie. Critics may claim the directors never planned on more than one film to start, but some of the bigger ideas were clearly there right from the st
