Mark Hamill rerecorded his monologue from Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) ("the Force is strong in my family") to be used in the teaser trailer, but it was decided to mix his newly recorded lines with those originally recorded, as a reverberation, so as to subtly tease his reprisal of his role.

While Poe leads the aerial assault on the oscillator, in the closeups of Poe and other X-wing fighter pilots, note the cockpit windows at the pilots' left and right have identical marks and scratches in their individual X-wings. It's particularly noticeable when one closeup follows another. See more »
Quotes
[first lines]
Lor San Tekka:
This will begin to make things right. I've traveled too far and seen too much to ignore the despair in the galaxy. Without the Jedi, there can be no balance in the Force.
Poe Dameron:
Well, because of you, now we have a chance. The General's been after this for a long time.
Lor San Tekka:
Oh, the General? To me, she is royalty.
Poe Dameron:
Well, she certainly is that.

First review ever but I feel compelled to write after watching this movie last night. No spoilers in the review below.
The script was poor, too many attempts at one liners that fell flat. Many of the lines delivered by the female lead in a deadpan manner.
There was no plot at all. The director of the movie has crammed many scenes but they are too brief and no tension is allowed to build. Every thing achieved by the Alliance seemed all too easy.
Finn, Poe and BB8 were all pretty good and made the best of what they were given in the movie.
Action is important in a Star Wars movie but it should not be the only feature.
