Looks like it's sticking around at my 60ft 3D IMAX theater at least through February 6th as well. The Finest Hours has been relegated to lesser screens at the same location for both 2D and 3D showings. Go TFA!!
I'd much rather see Lucas produce Episode IX than direct it. Whatever he was in the past, he is no longer a good director IMO and I'd hate to see this new trilogy end on a bad note. He sold it. Let the new blood have it.
