Yeah. I would imagine if you hate the new movies, then you'll probably not like most of the ones that are going to follow.

Help me every other director in Hollywood including Uwe Boll and M. Night Shymalan, you're my only hope!

When are they making a movie that reveals Leia's menstrual cycle? I mean, how are we as Star Wars fans supposed to know anything about it if they don't make a movie?! There can be no more questions in the Star Wars universe! Everything must be explained!

Really? Fucking noob. Her cycle is already as clear as day if you actually bothered to watch the movies and read the novelizations.

Saw it last weekend, and have avoided reading posts in this thread to date to taint my opinion, so here is my brief review:
- First 3/4 of the movie was utterly forgettable-- basically generic sci fi in space with good production values.
- Last 1/4 of the movie felt like genuine Star Wars
- I didn't give a shit about any of the characters, but that's generally the case with all modern day sci fi where explosions and CGI are more important than character depth
- Musical score was bleh
- The Star War fanbois will probably freak, but IMHO no Jedi=no Star Wars. While I am sure there's a tremendous amount of lore out there via the novels and such, if the movies are your only source, then Jedi's are integral to Star Wars being Star Wars, and not generic_action_movie_in_space.
- I did like the fact that the movie was more serious, gritty, and less "sanitized" than previous Star Wars movie. If they can replicate this more mature content into the main Star Wars films, they may finally have a winner.
7/10, and thats kinda being generous with mental emphasis on the climax of the movie.

you realize that the whole point of this series is to sell crap to children, right?

If they can sell Alien and Terminator toys I don't think this would be some kind of mutually exclusive thing necessarily. Nobody is talking about an NC-17 Star Wars movie.

Yeah and even then we got to see stuff like an alien's arm lying in a pool of blood on the floor after being cut off. We were an edit away from even seeing a head in the same state.

Children? Lol children don't have jobs. Kids probably steal more than they buy.

Maybe in the 70's they did. Today the SWnerd parents can afford the toys themselves.
