10 Interesting Things You Probably Missed While Watching Star Wars: The Force Awakens

ZachPerilstein ZachPerilstein Disney Reporter A long time ago in a galaxy far far away...

WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!!!

While you were in the glory of watching Star Wars: The Force Awakens you probably missed some interesting moments. So let me fill you in on ten things you might have missed while watching Star Wars: The Force Awakens:

10. Obi wan kenobi makes a voice cameo

Ewan McGregor (Obi Wan Kenobi) makes a cameo in the film during Rey's vision. He says the words "Rey… these are your first steps."

9. Rey has luke's old rebel pilot Helmet plus she lives in an at-at

Rey lives on Jakku, a planet in the outer rim. It's a junkyard planet filled with knick-knacks from previous movies in the trilogy. So is it just a coincidence she has Luke's old Rebel alliance pilot helmet? Plus it's pretty cool she lives in an AT-AT.

8. When Kylo reveals Rey's thoughts

When Kylo Ren uses the force on Rey, he looks into her mind and he starts saying what she's thinking about.

Kylo says "Your thinking of an island with a lot of water by it…"

This is ironic because Rey ends up on a island at the end of the movie with a legendary Jedi named Luke.

7. Maz Kanata has Luke's Lightsaber

Even though we don't find out why. Maz Kanata, the space pirate queen reveals it's a story for a different time. Maz Kanata has lived for a thousand years and she has even crossed paths with Yoda. So anything is possible, now we are left to wonder, did Maz Kanata survive the First Order attacks?

6. Carrie fisher's daughter was in the movie

Carrie Fisher's daughter Billie Lourd played the role of Lieutenant Connix. Her role was in the war room for the Resistance.

5. Princess leia and han solo sent ben solo away because "he had too much vader in him"

Nothing makes you feel more loved then being told you have too much evil in you. Ben Solo was sent away to train to become a Jedi with Uncle Luke Skywalker. Ben Solo soon let his Vader-side out when Supreme Leader Snoke seduced him to the dark side. Ben Solo turned into Kylo Ren and had the Knights of Ren kill all the Padawans Luke was training at the new Jedi Academy. Luke, feeling devastated for the events that happened, went into exile. Han and Leia went their separate ways after the devastating event.

4. supreme leader snoke is not a giant

One of the biggest misconception in Star Wars: The Force Awakens is Supreme Leader Snoke. The mysterious villain who we don't actually see. He appears to look massive, when honestly he was just a hologram. So his size is smaller than what everybody thinks.

3. The old man in the beginning is important

The old man Poe Dameron got the map from is one of the bigger mysteries coming out of the film.

The old man could just be a wise man? Maybe he's a Alderaanian which could explain why he would say Leia will always be royalty to him. The guy is a former ally of Luke and Leia and he has the map to Luke Skywalker. So he's more important than just a random wise man? Right? Maybe he's Ezra Bridger grown up from Star Wars: Rebels.

2. supreme leader snoke uses the same background music as darth plagueis

In Episode III, Emperor Palpatine tells Darth Vader the story about Darth Plagueis and there is background music. Ironically that same background music is used for Supreme Leader Snoke? That just added more fire to the fuel for the fan theory of Snoke being Darth Plagueis.

1.When han dies, leia feels it too.

When Han Solo is stabbed by Kylo Ren on the catwalk, the film switches over to Leia feeling her stomach and having a face of pain and shock. It made for a very emotional scene. Some might not have noticed this scene because they were still processing the event that just occurred.
