The seventh film in the main continuity of the Star Wars franchise.

Tropes used in Star Wars: The Force Awakens include:
  • Ace Pilot: Poe Dameron, one of the squadron leaders from the Resistance earns his keep by shooting down several TIE Fighters and quick succession and destroying Starkiller Base with his X-Wing. And his expertise isn't limited to just one ship. In his own words, "I can fly anything." when asked if he can fly a Special Forces Tie Fighter.
  • Achilles in His Tent: Han Solo gets this treatment on the grounds that he retired from being a war hero and went back to illegal shipping industry. However, the Resistance needed someone to infiltrate Starkiller Base and his son really needs some spiritual guidance.
  • Adult Fear:
    • The mannerisms of the First Order is similar to some of the worst dictatorships in history; complete with training Child Soldiers, killing a massive number of civilians on-screen, General Hux giving a fanatical speech in front of his army, and heavily punishing dissenters.
    • Han's and Leia's reaction to their son working for the First Order is akin to learning that your child has willingly joined a cult.
  • Heel Face Turn: The Stormtroopers of the First Order are supposed to be loyal and apathetic, among other things. FN-2187 quickly grew a conscious after his first mission and started planning to desert the First Order.
  • Line-of-Sight Name: FN-2187 never knew what his actual name was and his serial number was to cumbersome for Poe to repeat, so Poe just went with "Finn" and the name stuck.
  • Weapon of Mass Destruction: In a nutshell, Starkiller base is the new Death Star. Except that it can destroy several planets at once from a remote location and it gets most of it's energy from absorbing stars.
  • What A Piece of Junk: Given it's derelict state and age, the Millenium Falcon's appearance on Jakku prompts Rey to call it a piece of garbage.
  • You Are Number Six: How the First Order names their Stormtroopers. In Finn's case, it's FN-2187, and his squadmates were FN-2199, FN-2000, and FN-1999.
