    I confess I will probably not be able to see it until ohhh...February when my mom comes to visit because of a certain young little toddler who does not separate well. Sigh. Alas. #greenwithenvy

    But! Ohhh I'll have to live vicariously through you all! And I am SO happy to hear that - so far - it is receiving high praise. JJ really works magic IMO, especially with reboots. :beat

    Go see it in the theatre! Seriously.

    I hope this isn't considered a spoiler!
    I loved the cinematography. Where the prequels felt disjointed, this one feels like a continuation of 4-6. Like the wipes between scenes. You know, the little things. And it's beautiful. So I totally recommend seeing it at the theatre!

    We did see it in the theater, last night. I was trying to say I can't decide if I want to go see it AGAIN in the theater. I can't talk, even when I type...

    We actually ended up seeing it today because who I am kidding - I can't leave for two hours during the upgrade. I LOVED IT! It had total respect for the integrity of the franchise but plenty of new awesomeness too.

    I agree- loved it, loved the music (Gotta love John Williams!), loved the scenery, was enthralled through the whole thing. I was really hoping that the last scene would continue though!

    We saw it Sunday and it was so good!!! I love all the new characters. I think they are perfect and great additions to the star wars heroes ad villains. New classics! They were funny and likable and really awesome!

    My husband said the new movie restored his faith in Star Wars. He didn't like the prequels.

    I just got back from seeing it. I thought it was amazing. I wish I had gotten to watch the original trilogy before seeing the new one, but time got away from me. That being said, it was such a pleasure to watch and it went by so fast!

    I'm thinking IMAX right after the holidays so the crowds may be less. My sons said it was awesome though!

    I didn't like the prequels either.

    We finally saw it last night. I was totally feeling like it wasn't going to live up to the impossible hype... but it did. I was amazed. I loved the little bits of humor throughout. I also thought it was very visually appealing. It is so sobering to realize how the original cast had aged though. For some reason, you just don't really think about it until you see them there, on the huge screen, and realize how old they are. :(

    We were so mad though. We'd avoided all social media over the weekend so we wouldn't see spoilers. We were literally in the lobby, waiting for the door to open to our showing, and some idiots came out and started rattling off a bunch of things that they'd just seen. Total spoilers. I could not believe it. My daughter wanted to choke them. She was laughing about the fact that it was probably a good thing that the people all dressed up in their Jedi robes hadn't heard them. They probably would have attacked. We tried to talk and ignore them, but they were so loud and obnoxious that we finally had to walk away and go to the other side of the lobby even though we'd heard too much already. Ridiculous.
