I totally loved it and was mesmerised throughout the entire thing. I'd say it's the perfect sequel to the original trilogy.
Do. Not. Wait.I'm not going to be able to wait until January.
Me and my three siblings are going January 1 or 2 when my brother comes up from Massachusetts for Christmas. He said I don't have to wait, but I said I would. I'm not sure why I'm making a big deal out of the commitment. We were all Star Wars fans as kids. It defined our earliest Christmases (even for the girls). Things have been really strange in the six years since my dad passed. I feel like I've been living on a different planet and something tells me I should see it for the first time with them.
I'm probably being stupid.
But I don't wanna.
It's two whole weeks. This is going to be harder than quitting smoking.
I don't have feelings, so I can't relate. But that is as good a reason to wait as you are gonna find. I'll send you strength through the ether.
May the Force be with you.
That breaks my heart. Fawk you for sharing that storyI could use the break, actually. It'll be nice to go on an internet-free diet.
You're a gem.
So this one's for you...
There's another thing that's been eating at me with seeing it. I got banned from rebelscum.com for being a member of banthaskull.com back in 2008. What happened is a long story, but those of us who were part of the site from the beginning shared a bond. Earlier this year, one of us died of an especially uncomfortable form of cancer. SithMan was a quiet, incredibly polite, incredibly friendly guy who really only lived for Star Wars. He was single his whole life, worked with the disabled, and spent all of his money on his collection (mostly Hasbro figures and actors' signatures from the six movies). Survived by a sister, and that's it.
When the news of his illness hit, I was long gone from the site. I didn't know what was happening until he was gone. Apparently, he was pretty confident in his chances, and cancer being cancer, he took a sharp turn for the worse. It was over quickly. As ****ed up as it may seem, several of us had the same first reaction: Mark's not going to get to see The Force Awakens. His story didn't have a 'happy' ending like the guy who got to see the raw edit. It was just plain old fashioned, nameless, cruel death.
Sorry to get so heavy. It's just that Star Wars is more than a movie, and I'm feeling it more than usual these days.
I was not disappointed. I had a couple tiny issues, but came away so happy and grateful for the experience. It bleeds OT, it celebrates OT and it breathes new life into SW. I couldn't ask for more.So it's pretty good, huh?
