Based on what I've seen of the Star Wars cultists, I now regret not making (and selling) light sabers with a flesh light handle (for the male virgins) and a dildo handled light saber (for the female virgins). 
Oh well, off to eat pounds of empty carbs and nitrate laden meats at the company winter solstice luncheon...where's my insulin?

I have not seen the movie but I opened this thread because of the "spoiler alert." Where are the SPOILERS! Also, I'm curious what happens in Episode 8 as well as the "Rogue One" standalone film, if you have any of that detail.
Lots of parallels to ANH. Nttawwt
Also, I can't look at Adam driver and not think of him as the douchey hipster from "girls"
This. Fortunately they didn't try to introduce any annoying characters in this one. And they stuck to the *original* formula...which was good.
All in all I'd say well done. Not amazing, but a solid Star Wars.
kylo rens voice sounds like javier bardems character in no country for old men.

This about sums it up.
I liked it! I wanted to be entertained for two hours...I didn't expect to learn the meaning of life. Good movie. 
It'll be interesting to see what they do with Episode 8. They won't need to be as nostalgic.

I saw the first one as when I was 12 - its was better than Grease and Saturday Night Fever but who knew it would become so big? 7 sequels is good marketing - someone bought me R2D2 socks for Christmas. Thank God my RMSS had better sense.
Highly enjoyed it. I was very entertained, but not surprised really once ever.
I think they relied a little too heavily on the nostalgiaI liked it! I wanted to be entertained for two hours...I didn't expect to learn the meaning of life. Good movie.

Very happy with this movie - the story was awesome, the new characters are fantastic and watching a chick handle a light saber is HOT
Well at least they didn't put Leia back in a bikini. But here's to hoping Rey will end up in one at some point in the coming films. Jakku looks like a pretty hot, beachy type of place.
The more I think about this movie, the more I dislike it.
To predictable, Does every Jedi have to be on a sand planet with dead parents?

That was Luke's aunt and uncle in Episode 4.
Anakin's mom raised him in Episode 1. She didn't die until he was an adult, and Anakin had no father.
There was no mention of what happened to Rey's parents in Episode 7.
I enjoyed it, but felt like it was 50% remake of Ep. 4 and 50% continuing the story line.
I've also been amazed that all the planets they visit have the same gravitational force.
And yes, "phasma" sounds like something Mike Tyson would day
Uh, isn't Rey clearly Luke's daughter? Either that or Han and Leia popped out another kid and somehow didn't notice.
I wonder how much less Hammel (sp?) got paid for not having a speaking role...
saw it in 3d this morning. meh rehash of the original story line.....glad we did not have any lines to wait in.
I was entertained but that was my one takeaway. I still think he used the recycling to start off a lot of new storylines and the new characters were entertaining and good acting.
Exorbitant, yes. This is a real 1570 format/size IMAX setup, at least.
