Tie in products-  many products are made for the new film for example the Lego star wars, also lunch boxes and bottles.

SFX (special effects- technology used)- there are a lot of special effects used like CGI (computer generated image) sound effects where also used on things like cannons ray guns e.c.t, CGI was a big part of the film as it is mostly visual effects so without that the film would be completely different.

Any issues -George Lucas didn't wright or direct, not every scene was CGI, also the characters are too likable.
