I'm surprised that some of you are surprised. There is not other path for this franchise to take. You don't make Dark Knight coming off Arnold making cold puns. You have to make Batman Begins first. It's a nice, safe movie that reminds you that you love Star Wars. If you didn't like the movie you don't love Star Wars. Case closed.
Fucking THIS.
Disney dropped $4 billion to get this IP. If you thought they were gonna take any major risks with the first film, well I just can't help you.
Disney could have put out 3 hours of ewoks gang banging jabba the hutt and still broken every record in the book. I don't know what the sequel is, but they have millions of dumbfucks who will buy anything they put out.
Maybe they'd make money on the first film, and all the merch. But if they shit the bed with the first movie and pissed off the fans, they'd be killing a golden goose.
Now they can ride that shit to the bank for years.
If Episodes 1-3 weren't enough to piss off the fans and make them not come back, there is nothing they can do to lose them now. HTH.
I guess I can't argue against that on a Husky football bored.

I got really, really, offensively fucking drunk tonight and saw Point Break. I'm sorry, but it was better than the new Star Wars. It was more entertaining, bro.
I hadn't watched it yet, then realized j don't give a fuck so read the thread to spoil it.
I did the whole marathon thing with some friends obsessed with it a few years back and at the end I just don't get it. Star Wars fucking sucks. There is nothing bad ass about it, but for some reason you have to think it's cool to be cool or something.
Liking Star Wars is the definition of being a hipster faggot. Im glad Han Solo dies at the hands of his son.

How old are you?
edit: Not asking for a date. Unless you want one?
Just throwing this out there in case you and Swaye are looking to citrusize this encounter.
Star Wars takes some perspective. I was 5 when my two Dads took me to the theatre to see it. First movie I ever saw in a theatre. Look, in 1977, when you are 6, and all of the sudden this huge fucking ship comes into the screen firing lasers and shit and then a ship so fucking big it takes up the entire screen comes lumbering in shooting more lasers and shit. For a 6 year old, in 1977, that was life changing shit. Then this bad ass dude in all black with a voice like a howitzer rolls in and starts force choking bitches. Luke was always a fag, but Han was a bad ass, Chewie was cool as shit, and The Force was about the coolest thing a kid could even dream up. I used to pretend that I would use the force for mind manipulation of chicks to get them to blow me.
If I saw it for the first time now, in my mid 20s, I'd probably be like "meh, good visuals for the day but whatever space cowboys blah blah blah...". But at the time, that shit was fucking amazing. And slave suit Leia hit when I was like 12. Um yeah. Fuel for so much NTD, BB.
TL;DR: If you are early to mid 40's, shit was mind bendingly cool.
The original trilogy was cool. The second one started off terrible and got better as it went on, but the writing was pretty cheesy. I'm not exactly itching to see the new one yet, because JJ Abrams is the Steve Sarkisian of directors. Sizzle.
