I'm in no rush to see it but curious at the same time. Will probably watch it before the new year comes in.

It's not getting the best of reviews. I think folks are burned out on Star Wars. Particularly by the way it's been treated by Disney. They haven't had the greatest track record.

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

I went to the very first Star Wars movie with my family many years ago, but haven't seen one since. I have a son and grandson, though, who are big fans.  I guess I started something with that first introduction. We also took my mother, who at that time was in her seventies.  I don't think she got a lot out of it!

Not I.  I watched Star Wars as a kid and wasn't that excited about it then so I'm not excited about it now.

I have not seen the new star wars. I've only seen the old ones with Carrie Fisher. I'll look into this new one whenever I get a chance.

I think they are pushing the limit with another Star Wars.  This has to be really good to do very well.

I am going to see it.  I am hoping to avoid spoilers, too.  Here is hoping you get to see the film soon.

My son just saw it and said it was epic. I told him I don't want to hear any spoilers at all until I see it.

Not sure if I will see, but if I do I will wait until all the rush calms down; not willing to deals with  crowds.

I stumbled onto spoilers (thanks, Internet jerks) and I don't really care to see it now. :)

Yeah... I've seen the spoilers in graphic illegal filmed detail up on the internet, too -- I won't be seeing it. How Disney transformed Star Wars is a travesty -- that is all I'll say on it.

However, Baby Yoda on Disney+ is genius, it is so cute & the storyline is excellent.  Worth a watch :)

I don't know how old you are, but they were exciting when they came out in the theaters because of what was happening in the US at the time.  They came out in the 70's when Carter was President & there were long gas lines where you could only buy gas on days when your license plate was even or odd -- & much more; The country was basically in a mental depression & the movies of good vs evil & triumph was inspiring & needed. That's why the originals gained such an obsessed fan base initially.  The Star Wars movies of today are just Social Engineering projects, that people still want the same excitement for as the originals... but they just are not that good, if at all.  The character development is so lacking, stories are a shell of what they could have been.

I'm not excited about it at all anymore either.   Star Wars is over party (except for The Mandalorian on Disney+)

I would love to see it but I do not think we will be able to go. Just can not afford going to the movies.
