Top 20 Star Wars The Force Awakens Movie Details
While searching the internet for Star Wars The Force Awakens movie facts, I found some interesting little known details. Obscure enough that most people could miss it, I want to make you a favor by creating ordered lists with the most intriguing hidden details.
Most of them are not blatantly obvious to be observed at first sight, so take your time and read carefully. We have extensive definitions that accurately explain any behind the scene meaning or famous dialogues.
In The Force Awakens, the pieces on the Holo chess board are set in the same position they were in when Chewbacca and R2 stopped playing in a New Hope.

I have collected all the famous movie trivia questions with answers from Reddit and other sources. They can be very useful in quizzes or games, or simply to learn more information. Most of the fun Star Wars The Force Awakens details are suitable for kids.

Finding Easter Eggs in movies is one of my favorite hobbies. Hidden objects, characters, and their meanings are wonderful ways to discover the filmmaker's perspectives of any given movie.

After Rey accidentally opens the wrong door, Han Solo and Chewbacca are forced to run away from a Rathtar which is rolling down a hallway towards them. So what better musical cue to put in than the boulder roll sound from the iconic Raiders of the Lost Ark scene?
When Rey summons the lightsaber to her, the same music track is played as that of when Luke finds his dead aunt and uncle at the beginning of "A New Hope". This is meant to show Rey accepting what she must do and who she must become like how Luke did in ANH.
Daniel Craig plays the stormtrooper who gets mind-tricked into letting Rey go.
