Blah blah blah.
I’m not going to see it.
My 8th grade boy has no interest in seeing it.
The first three were entertaining, but I fail to see any deep allure of a cherried-out poverty row space and horse opera serial.
I assume it is probably less offensive than the bulk of the trash put out by Hollyweird.
Anyways, I have a 6 year old and I was 6 when my Dad took me to the 1977 MAY showing and I HOPE I can give that to my son.
After waiting in line 6 hours for Episode I, I am going to wait about a week to see Episode VII and will spend as little energy and effort getting there.
I’ll probably watch it when it hits the discount second run theater or free TV. I never could force myself to watch the garbage of the second trilogy.
Never seen so much hype of the hype. I rarely go to the movies as part of my boycott of liberal Hollywood. I’ll wait for it on Nefllix or Amazon Prime eventually.
I’ll wait until it comes out on Directv or Netflix.
Based on what Lucas did with the script for the last SW flick, and made George Bush into a Sith Lord (”If you’re not with me, you’re against me - only a Sith deals in absolutes!”), let’s examine the possibilities:
* Is Rush Limbaugh a Hutt?
* Is Sarah Palin his dancing slave girl?
* Are all the GOP candidates Gungans?
* Is Hillary younger than Han Solo???
I was afraid of this. A clumsily directed movie designed to placate the Star Wars nerdverse filled with esoteric and archaic throwback references to SW canon in an effort to prove its authenticity. It would be as if Abrams was saying to himself, “Okay. After the disaster of the prequels we have to make this specific movie in order to mollify the masses so they achieve catharsis. and then we can move on to making the movies I wanted to make.”
I am looking forward to seeing this movie!
LOL!
You waited in line 6 hours to see a stupid movie?
Sarah could wear that outfit -- and look great.
The last SW movie would have been OK (or at least a lot better than the first two prequels) but for the horrible dialogue, and your examples are some of the best (or worst, depending on your view). The statement "Only a Sith deals in absolutes" is itself an absolute which essentially makes Obi-Wan a Sith.
Jar Jar Binks killed starwars. I haven’t seen one since.
If this one bombs as hard as "Phantom Menace" ... I'm done.
Lucas killed Star Wars — by make Luke and Leia brother and sister.
Agreed. That was so creepy.
