Just got thru, I really enjoyed it. Like the young characters very much. And it didn't have a real CGI feel but instead was similar to the old ones. Looking fwd to the next.

Yeah, the young hero is definitely the millennial thing to do. Ever notice how on earlier tv shows that the kids were the silly ones always getting into trouble while the wise parents guided them through the process of growing up? Now every show depicts the parents as imbeciles that their wise kids tolerate.

That is very true. I do like the girl, Rey, though. And like the little droid unit as well.

You should have saved your money and just watched Episode IV again.

I loved it and have seen it twice. I thought they did a great job overall. Visually it was amazing and they introduced the new characters and setup a lot of options and a ton of questions and debate.

It certainly was very similar to IV and VI, but it was clear they did that on purpose. I think the key to how good this movie will be is how good VIII and IX are. This movie was a setup to get us to the next two. If the next two deliver then the setup looks even better, but if the next two flop then the setup will be looked at as a flop as well.

I can't wait for Rogue One to come out. I think that movie has a ton of potential.

I think the similarities, orphan kid, desolate dessert area, strong with the force but not realizing it, happening into a central role in a fight for the future of the galaxy seemingly randomly, etc. were by design. Sort of implying that the force has a consistent method of bringing about its endstate.

In summary, don't be so negative wobbs :)

As the great short arm, extinct, dino philosopher would say, "I am not being negative, I am only being realistic."

Dude, you are stroking it. I like it when you actually post.... you know, more than one word.
