Please do all your spoilers in here so that I can avoid them.

Thanks.

I’ve only seen the original one but apparently in one of them, Darth Vader turns out to be Luke’s dad. 😯

Chewbacca is frozen in yoghurt.

My friend’s sister used to go out with real life Darth Vader’s son.

The Death Star isn’t a star 😯

That a big enough spoiler? (IGMC)

Turns out that ‘Rosebud’ ia the name of the sleigh

Can I just say…

It’s my birthday today (thanks) and the Mrs has bought me tickets for the 3D showing Tomorrow of the film…

So that’s Star Wars on the day of release, in 3D 😯
It is in a small Cinema (Everyman) that also has two person booths, pizza or hot dogs and drinks brought to your booth..

I even have a pair of 3D glasses as part of my pressie.

Err…
Yay!!
😆

3D ere for me Tomorrow – early showing, so will i be able to talk to anyone else on here from about 11am?????????

Me too!
Got ESB and ROTJ planned for the deadzone between kids going to bed and needing to drive to the cinema.
Yesterday I was excited, now I’m just nervous.

Just sneaked a look at the reviews on’t beeb – looks favourable. Hurrah.

yeah, don’t read the reviews if you want to keep it all a surprise, altho the two I read were actually scant on details or answers to the big questions but they did give some of the general themes away.

Turns out that it wasn’t actually a moon – it was a space station!

I reckon it’s a trap

My friend is the real life Darth Vader’s niece.

Had they got as far as getting engaged I guess he would have pro-Prowse’d IGMC

Look under the table Greedo!

happy to report that it’s BRILLIANT.

Yup – absolutely fantastic. I’m already excited for the next one!

Yup, saw it last night and it is very, very good. Want to see it again already, and it sets up the next film perfectly.

Best battle scene ever

And they all lived happily ever after

For those that have seen it, what did you pick out of 2d/3d/imax? I’m wondering whether 3d adds anything to the film.

Saw it in 2D last night.
Giggled like a school girl and cried like the fanboy I know am.
Loved it, kinda wish I’d booked to see it again today now.
And not eaten so much popcorn 😳

Have you seen the Star Wars in the lake District film yet?

On local paper website….

http://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/new-video-identifies-cumbria-locations-in-star-wars-the-force-awakens-1.1231908

Some of it was filmed at Puzzlewood in FoD, but I’m sure everyone already new that 😉

Is this the new Disney kids’ film that everyone’s been on about? I think my two are a bit old for it.

And the rebel base was filmed at the bunkers on Greenham common, lots of shots of that, just with mountains added in the background…

AWESOME – a few things felt like a “copy” but lots of other stuff made up for it, felt they played it safe – acting was great though, and the effects top notch, john williams score amazing, welled up at “certain parts” but overall probably 2nd to Empire.

3D was ok, didnt detract too much and was fine.

6 people in my showing, 2 staff !

The Death Star isn’t a star

And that small moon? Well, it isn’t actually a moon… 😆

So whats the utter violence verdict – would I be a bad dad if I took my 6yo to see it?

Edit – IMAX 3D or no?

Off to watch it this afternoon. I can’t wait!!!!

Watched it last night at 12:01am!! Slightly tires today, but it was well worth it! Really great film, and am seeing it again on Sunday.

Some great merchandise from the original release:

TBH I thought a few bits were quite brutal for a Star Wars film (without too many spoilers, the flame thrower scene in the village was like something from a ww2 movie)
Defo not taking my 5 year old to see it, Abrams has managed to cater for the fanboys as well as the slightly younger market by making a proper Star Wars film (although nothing like the kiddie shitfest that was episode 1). Yes some (most) of the plot lines are rehashed, but if it works…
Big thumbs up from me.

Big thumbs up here too… It was a proper starwars film. Well shot, a bit industrial and not the polished episode 1. Loved it, going again soon….
