I thought it was a pretty awful trailer. Am still excited for the movie and will definitely see it in theaters, but seemed like a mess. Definitely a few cool moments, maybe I just wanted fewer jump cuts. And the knockoff baby Groot or whatever with Chewie annoyed me in its quarter second of screen time.

The question always becomes how to avoid spoilers. Even before these movies are released. Its one thing if you dont go watch it in the first 2 weeks of release and see/hear spoilers. To have to do it 2 months before the movie is released is unnecessary work. And I'm someone who rarely fucks with social media.

I kinda agree. I'll be there opening weekend regardless, but the trailer didn't make me wish it was December 15 today.


I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

And I had to get tickets for the later show for the premiere.

 

Worth it being knackered at work the next day.

Fuuuck, that's going to be a rough one to watch with the girls (and the 7 year old wants to see it more than I do). Might have to do this one in the reclining theater that serves full on dinner.

White Flint has one. iPic Theater.

 

Here's their menu, full bar too. Expensive, but kinda worth it if it's a really long movie like this...

Sitting at 93% on RT right now and they have a critics consensus.  I'm guessing I will not be disappointed on Thursday.

 

Man I'm so pumped, I'm so glad they're making good Star Wars movies again.

Hard to believe this has snuck up on me.

 

I probably won't be able to see this this weekend but I will be seeing it sometime next week for sure.

Yep. Looking like Christmas weekend for me. Most likely, I'll end up sneaking off and seeing it before then. I've got the itch. Having been with Rian Johnson from the beginning of his career, I'm super stoked to see the culmination of his career work. He's great, I'm so confident this is going to be amazing.

Early projections have this as a top 5 all time movie in terms of opening weekend gross..crazy to me that #1 is this year’s Fast and a furious movie.

Damn those movies make serious money.
