I have a few friends and co-workers that went last night. I have to really stay off Facebook and watch my emails, etc. so I don't hear anything about it.

I don't want to know ANYTHING but what I've seen in the trailers before I see it for myself. I won't say anything one way or the other either.

*** No Spoilers ***

Left work early today and went to see this movie, as I've been really looking forward to it and with how crazy things have been this was the only way I was going to be able to see it anytime soon. All I can say is it was worth every penny I spent. It definitely captured the essence of the original trilogy while handing the torch off for the franchise reboot. It had the same kind of rollercoaster ride as the original Star Wars movie. I'm ready to see it again.

Last night we watched #4, today we're going to watch #5 and #6, then tomorrow at 3PM we're seeing the new one.

Great deal via Fandango and Visa Checkout. IMAX tickets for $15.25 each incl $2 booking fee. On Sunday, it was buy 2 or more, get 1 free. And Visa Checkout was $15 off. So for three of us to see it in IMAX it's $15.50 or $5.17 per person. Can't beat that!

Saw it. It's most certainly better then any of the "prequels". Nobody should have any tantrums after seeing it. Tantrums are bad 'mkay. LOL.
