Leaving for the theater in about 25 minutes.  This will now be the third Star Wars movie opening night viewing I've gone to with BrentS.  Always good to have fellow fans with you for something like this.  I'm just glad that they did away with the midnight premieres.  I'm getting too old for that *sith*!

Very good ;D  Been a long time since I walked out of a movie as excited and exuberant as I was tonight.  Fits nicely with the OT in a way the PT never quite achieved and really has that more "familiar" feel to it.  Long-time Star Wars fans, plus new ones, will enjoy it.  I'm going to see this one again, and again, and again ;)

I just got back.  I truly enjoyed it.  The only thing that will top it is taking my 5 year old tomorrow!

I just saw it.  There was an emotional component to this movie that was somewhat lacking in the PT.  I was able to feel a much greater sense of empathy with these characters.

Incredible movie! Everything felt so real and alive. The dialog was smart, funny and emotional. Rey was the star of the movie. Han, Chewie and Leia never missed a beat in their ping ponging off of each other. A really sad moment that we all knew was coming but hoped it didn't. It needed more R2 but BB-8 filled in well. That is one fast and durable droid. This is a huge home run for J.J. and makes the prequels look incredibly bad.
