    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Can't decide where I want to purchase it. I love extras so, I really want the Target version for the extra 20 minutes of features but, their packaging looks like a cheap cardboard foldout and I hate those things. I like Best Buy's steelbook but, then I don't get those extra 20 minutes! Agh!!!

    Cinefex also has an iPad app which is great because they include short video clips and other interactive features in most articles. Plus, each issue is only $5 in the app or you can subscribe for $20/year. All of their previous issues are available in the app but, only the ones from the past...

    Or premiere the Rogue One trailer in theaters, attached to TFA, 2 weeks before the trailer is available online. I'd go see it a 5th time for that!

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    I think I mentioned this earlier in the thread. Rey's theme plays off of Luke's theme a few times during the movie and that piece in during the end credits is one of the most beautiful moments of the score IMO. I also think it is one of the biggest hints of her family tree. Of course, they may...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    This is exactly why I do not feel the need to upgrade yet. My 1080p 55" still looks amazing and everything I've read says our eyes can't see the difference at these screen sizes and seating distances anyway (we sit about 10' away). Our TV is only a year and a half old which is another reason I...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    I've seen a few interviews with Kathleen Kennedy saying that they have a general plan or outline for the story they want to tell in this trilogy and JJ had a hand in forging that plan. She also said that exactly how to get from A to Z will be left up to each movie's filmmakers as many of the...

    Disappointed to see the making of book not coming until October. I bought the art of book and it even mentions, on the dust cover, the making of coming in the spring. I'm hoping the Amazon date is a mistake.

    I can definitely see that, my 8 year old daughter has gone nuts for Rey ever since we saw it. Before TFA, her favorite SW universe character was Ahsoka, another prominent Jedi female. Now the movies have a strong female Jedi lead and she has gone crazy for that character.

    Well, I don't blame him for being defensive. Folks are basically asking "how do you feel about a good SW movie being made instead of the crappy ones like you made?" I honestly think he wanted to make more SW films but was just sick and tired of the backlash. I also find it ironic that the...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Probably a lot more cgi, talk of trades and politics and not as much fun. I don't hate Lucas and I won't bash him but, I do think he made 3 mediocre to bad movies with the prequels. I just don't enjoy most of those movies. Yes, I like some scenes here and there but, overall, I just don't have...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    As directly as the visual dictionary, no. Han tells Finn and Rey that Luke had a student that turned and killed the other students. Later in the movie Leia talks to Han about sending Kylo Ren to train with Luke but he still turned. How many students did Luke have that turned to the dark side? If...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    That information is in the movie as well, I think it is Han who tells Finn and Rey about Luke's student killing everyone and Luke going into hiding. Then when you find out Ren is a Solo it is pretty easy to connect the dots and, then Rey's flashback with Ren standing over all the dead bodies...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Sounds very interesting. I ordered that book as well but, it will not be back in stock on Amazon until January 2, should have it shortly after. Can't wait to get it, last time I bought an art of book was ROTS. I also read that a making of book will be released in the spring, I may have to get...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Tino, I do think you are going to be disappointed. I thought the movie hinted very heavily that she is Luke's daughter, especially with the look he gives her at the end. It could also be all the spoilers I've read during the past year and a half. I really hope she is not Han and Leia's...

    I completely disagree with most of you about the score. I've had the album since Wednesday and can't stop listening to it, I really enjoy this album much more then the albums for AOTC and ROTS. There is plenty of really good new stuff here but, I agree that it gets drowned out in the film mix...

    I left my brief review in the other thread so I'll just say I loved it! Only one plot point bothered me a little and that is the explanation of how Starkiller base fires its weapon. Just in case

    ^ That was fantastic! I'm about to leave work and head straight to the theater! Can't believe I'm about to watch a brand new Star Wars movie!!
