So, we've all seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens by now, yes? We've lived the hype, felt the awakening; now we just can't stop talking about the darned thing. CAUTION: major spoilers ahead for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. You've been warned!

What's refreshingly intriguing about J.J. Abrams' contribution to the Star Wars universe is how close to the chest it plays so many of its narrative cards. Days have passed since this film was released in the cinema, yet those who even saw it on opening night are still filled with questions and queries on this return to a galaxy far, far away. Sure, there are a few leaps in logic that perhaps stretch any audience's suspension of disbelief, but largely these questions are the excitable result of a film not leading you through each plot point like a toddler taking its first steps. We know so little about Finn, Rey, and Poe because we've just met them, they're still a mystery to unravel over the next instalments of the trilogy. It's an enticing concept which has left audiences chewing at the bit for the release of 2017's . Because there are some serious questions we need answering, pronto.
