DISNEY! ALL THIS STUFF OUR READERS WANT BETTER BE IN THE NEXT MOVIE, OR WE’LL THROW A big KYLO REN- STYLE STROP!

MORE ORIGINALIT­Y

1 Lots of you told us that while you enjoyed The Force Awakens, many of the plot points – like a droid carrying secret plans and a planet- destroying weapon – felt a bit, well, familiar. “Be brave,” says @ ClubFDO. JJ has secured the perimeter now. Rian Johnson should move from there to something new.” “No more Death Stars!” chips in John Gardiner.

LOTS OF LUKE

2 Unsurprisi­ngly, pretty much everyone wants more Luke, which won’t exactly be difficult. People generally suggested that he’s seen training Rey, but Joeri Lonsu had an interestin­g different angle. “Use the original actors and make them young again with CGI… show what happened to Luke five years after Return Of The Jedi, in a flashback.”

LEIA HEROICS

3 While it makes sense that, as a General, Leia wouldn’t be getting her hands dirty on the frontline, quite a few of you want to see her showing how handy she is with a blaster. “I’d like to see Carrie Fisher involved in a final battle – perhaps against Captain Phasma,” said John C Farris. Snoozie Hick, meanwhile, had two words: “Jedi Leia”.

ACKNOWLEDG­E I- III

4 The fact that The Force Awakens was light on callbacks to the prequel movies didn’t sit well with some. Amy Dohnt wrote, “Stone- cold badass Padmé Amidala doesn’t even feature in a throwaway line? Not cool.” MR Michael, meanwhile, requested, “Gungans, Geonosians… anything that respects all six films, not just the first three!”

ADVENTURE!

5 This one word cropped up a lot… Andy Foster was just one of those who used it. “Rian Johnson definitely shouldn’t go with ‘ grim, gritty sci- fi’ like he’s previously been quoted as saying. Adventure!” Craig Oxbrow concurs: “Rey, Finn, Poe and BB- 8 having exciting adventures in space. That’s all I need.”
