I guess at the end of the day you can narrow down what its going to be... and now that we KNOW there is a big reveal it isn't as shocking.

Rey's lineage is revealed to be either Luke's kid or Kylo's sister.
Luke gets killed by Kylo or Rey or both
Luke kills Kylo, Rey or both

Anything else wouldn't qualify as OMG DONT RUIN IT FOR PEOPLE!!!!!

Getting really good reviews so far! Finally, after 4 shitty star wars movies in a row (some would argue 5 with Return of the Jedi) it looks like they got one right! (not counting rogue one since that is a stand alone).

The previous movie in this line was terrible, but I guess at least this one doesn't have Harrison Ford hamming it up so that's one positive.

The Death Star stand alone movie was good, I expect that line of movies to be good while these hold true to the 4 shitty movies that came before it.

hey man, no one is happier than me that it doesn't suck, but the track record that came before it made all my previous posts quite reasonable. The last 4 movies were all terrible (not counting Rogue1) so why would I think anything other than the same for this one going in?

Glad to hear they finally righted the ship and at least tied up the all time Star Wars record at 4 good movies (first 3 and this one) vs 4 bad movies (middle 3 and the recent one that was just a copy of the very first movie only shitty). I guess the 9th movie will be the alltime tie breaker to determine if Star Wars franchise is above or below .500

I think it's actually been seven consecutive shitty movies. Most of them have some good or great individual scenes, but none of them hold together particularly well as complete films.

I think it really depends on your level of fandom. If you are just a movie guy you will have a different opinion than someone that has been fanatical about SW your entire life eg seeing the first one in the theaters as a young kid.

To me the nostalgia of child hood always gets me. The prequels didn't do much for me but watching my kids react to the two most recent was a real treat and it brought back a lot of memories. Going to go see it later tonight and then probably take my boys sometime next week. My daughter is now a teenager and is far to cool to see a movie with old dad but I might drag her along anyways.

3D was overrated the last 2 Star Wars movies. I think you're fine.

Going Sunday morning with Peeps Jr.

Was pretty good, although it made The Force Awakens pretty useless in retrospect.

I enjoy most of the movies, but it's tough arguing that any of them are actually good.

It had some moments that were pretty awful and out of character for the franchise IMO. I enjoyed it for most part, I'll avoid typing more to avoid risk of spoilers.

I enjoyed that it borrowed from the Battlestar Galactica reboot, I guess with the Casino planet it borrowed from the original BSG too.
