OK. My 2 cents. A very good movie but not quite the film "The Force Awakens" was. I thought it was a little too predictable at times and some of the action was a little silly and it lacked a bit of the emotional appeal of the previous film. But when it did it's Luke vs Kylo vs Rey vs Snoke thing it was spot on. Great ending and a couple of surprise appearances throw-in give it a solid 7.5 out of 10 in my humble opinion. Lord Above, I've never seen so many nerds in any one place in my life. It was like somebody crashed a 747 full of them out in the parking lot.   :nerd: :nerd: :nerd: :nerd: :nerd:

During filming of Airplane, Leslie Nielsen used a whoopee cushion to keep the cast off-balance. Hays said that Nielsen "played that thing like a maestro"

On my way to see the first showing of the day.  Fingers crossed that it's any good  :bd:

Ok.  So, first off, it's better than Force Awakens.  No repeats (or remakes of entire previous movies) here.  Second, it's very action-y.  Not a whole lot of plot.  Third, it's super freakin' awesome to see Luke Skywalker back in action again.  Can't be more specific without giving anything away, but, if you like Star Wars, you should like this movie.

liked it for sure, but not overwhelmed by it....it will be interesting to see where it goes from here

Honestly, Force Awakens was pretty meh. An improvement over the prequels, but that ain't saying much.

It's good.  Surprising in their decisions on where to go with the story, but good.

Not a fan of the Porgs or whatever the screaming penguins were. Chewy had the right idea of what to do with them. Glad Leia didn't show up in the bikini. Wish Rey had.
