I thought it was pretty good...About Star Wars...it was okay.
But jeez louise, could Abrams have taken more plot devices from A New Hope? My God, he basically told the same story over again.
I think even a hardcore purist would have a hard time saying it was bad.I thought it was very good.
It definitely worked on the younger kids who aren't all that familiar with the franchise. My 10-year old daughter ate it up, which was cool. A lot of the little kids that were there were excited.Abrams and Disney were definitely laying up. They knew they couldn't make another Phantom Menace. I enjoyed it though. The new characters are great even if the plot didn't contain anything new. Definitely looking forward to the next one.
Hmmmm. Who knew that kids would perceive things differently than grownups.It definitely worked on the younger kids who aren't all that familiar with the franchise. My 10-year old daughter ate it up, which was cool. A lot of the little kids that were there were excited.
The funniest part were the grown men hooting and hollering when the Millenium Falcon showed up and when of course Han and Chewie appeared.
Who would do that? :outtahereThe funniest part were the grown men hooting and hollering when the Millenium Falcon showed up and when of course Han and Chewie appeared.
Star Wars Spoilers
Thought it was a pretty good movie. Definitely fun. Some of the plot devices were a little weak.
Random thoughts:
1. Who are Rey's parents?
2. I think Oscar Isaac is going to be a big star. Probably Daisy Ridley too. Overall, the casting was great.
3. RIP Han. Had to do it, I guess. Figured it might happen, but I was still thinking "No way" when it was about to happen.
4. Definitely seemed like a retelling of a New Hope. Hopefully, just a device to pass the torch.
5. The bad guys, especially Phasma, seemed particularly inept.
6. Kylo Ren seemed like a pretty immature villian. Hopefully, we see him mature during his training with Snoke. Just not sure Driver makes a great villian.
So, we are going to watch Star Wars tomorrow and wanted to watch the 4-6, or at least ESB and ROTJ before we go. Anyone know a decent site to watch them for free? We found them in On Demand but they were 20 bucks each.
Yeah, I already thought how nice it would be to be able to teleport your box set up here.Drive down here.
Nevermind, I guess at some point I copied your set. I found them in a box in the closet.Drive down here.
