I’ve seen the new film ask me any question, I dare you, I double dare you! 😉
I was going to wait a week or so for the excitement to die down but took a gamble and saw it. It was okay, none of the actors really engaged me, the dialogue was simplistic but the final half hour was worth the wait. Best actor in the movie has been dead for 22 years.
I enjoyed this much more than you. I thought F. Jones was awesome. Loved K2SO. Can’t wait to see it again. As for the numbers listed here, I think they will turn out to be a little low. One billion for sure.
She was good but I didn’t find her character very sympathetic, okay she was meant to be tough. The best bit in the entire film was probably a short scene involving Darth Vader near the end. If only the rest of the film was that good.
Hey Steve…I agree with you. I was not impressed with this movie. Hopefully the Han Solo story will be more about character than computer special effects.
Hey Stein…..thanks for the mini-review….I just put my review in today’s post if you would like to see it. I liked K-2SO as well…..but I did not enjoy the movie as much as you did….but I agree it has a great chance to reach 1 billion in worldwide gross….thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Hey Steve…I figured it would be awhile before we got your thoughts. So SPOILER question. Those that have not seen the movie..do not read this comment….SPOILER SPOILER question. You have been warned. So at the end of the movie….Princess Leia was on the only ship that picked up that transmission? Ok…I can buy that….but what I find a hard time understanding is…..that ship was the one used to be a battering ram that took down some of the battleships. So if Princess Leia was on that ship….we it really be in harm’s way like that….and would her ship really be the ship put in the most danger? Seems protecting the leader of the people would merit….her (a) not be at the front lines of the battle or (b) at the back of the fleet so she could observe. When her appearance finally happens…it is the only good guy ship left…as the rest went back home. Am I thinking too hard….or does that not make sense to you too?
Possible spoilers ahoy!
Was Leia in the ship that rammed the Star Destroyer? I can’t remember, it all seems a blur of action now. You’ve got a point and you’ve also been paying more attention to it than I have. I’ll watch more carefully next time I see it when it arrives on Blu-ray.
But I did like the way the ending leads directly to the beginning of Star Wars IV. The opening title crawl to A New Hope mentions those rebels stealing the Death Star plans so it would make for an interesting Star Wars double bill some day.
I predict 7th, and as the trilogy gets underway, 9th.
Hey internationaleClique…I feel pretty sure it will pass the McGregor movies….and join the Ford movies in the Top 4. We will be finding out soon….this time next week the all powerful “word of mouth” will be out.
Good Lord, everyone wants to include the Clone Wars movie like that was actually valid.
Well it was released theatrically worldwide, and it is official canon. Why wouldn’t they include it? I doubt it will be the last animated Star Wars film either.
I agree with you Kylo-Ren.
Hey krypton_son…..Clone Wars might be the black sheep of the Star Wars family….but is still part of the family.
Oh hell no The Phantom Menace tops the moviescore chart, why Bruce why? [bites fist] oh sorry I had it the other way round, ah that’s much better. 🙂
My favorite of the 6 movies is still Star Wars (1977) aka Episode IV A New Hope. I somehow doubt Episode VII will take over as my new no.1. But I am looking forward to watching it, a week or two after it opens. Let the all the kids have their fill of it.
Bruce, how did The Force Awakens get such a high critics rating when it hasn’t even been reviewed yet? And aren’t you a little generous with the box office projection? It’ll be interesting to see how close your estimate is, will it top 2 billion? Maybe. Avatar did it 6 years ago.
Hey Steve….I think if the word of mouth is decent to good…Avatar is in problem. I am thinking it will reach a quarter of a million this weekend alone in North America. Last week I was reading to some 4 years in a Pre-K class….somehow R2-D2 came up….surprisingly to me at least….most of the 4 years got excited about a Star Wars mention. As for the critic rating….right now Star Wars sits at a 9.5 on IMDB….that will be coming down… guessed a 80% Rotten Tomatoes score. The other places I get reviews from are currently at 0 reviews. I bet by the time the reviews come out….my 84.5% is going to be pretty close. Thanks for checking out my Star Wars page.
For my money, it’s Star Wars. That may be unfair, because SW had *all* the cool special effects, and you could practically see the Enterprise being pulled along by a string in the ST TV series. Plus, by the tims SW came along, the original ST cast was showing its age. But I liked that SW had a mystical element — ST didn’t explore that aspect of life.
Hey mollymeadows…..thanks for visiting my Star Wars/Trek hub. I agree with almost everything in your comment. Without the success of Star Wars….Star Trek movies might not even existed. I am not a fan(like almost everybody else) of the 2nd Star Wars trilogy…but I have high hopes for the upcoming J.J. Abraham Star Wars movies
