Star Wars - The Force Awakens arrives on December 18th in US theaters. There has been an awakening. Have you felt it?

 

NOTE: I am aware this topic has been asked before. I wanted to see if opinion has changed between now and then.

The wife and I have purchased tickets for the 18th - the day after release in Australia.

[Barricade24]

I'm extremely excited!!

[therfiles]

Got tickets for 7PM on the 17th...and I get to see it with a lot of my friends I haven't spent much time with since college. This is going to be amazing.

[MagSul]

The morning of the 17th. =D

[Onysfx]

I haven't purchased tickets, and really want to see it, but no doubt it will get spoiled.

@@Onysfx: I have a lot of my Star Wars fan sites blocked at the moment, I haven't seen the latest trailer, and I plan on just staying off the internet around the 17th. The spoilers will be stopped!

Sadly I'm broke till the 18th so probably won't get to see it till either the 19th or the 20th, force willing.

18th - on Friday. I would prefer 17th, but I want to share the experience with my friends and most of them plan to go on Friday.

[RevanKnight]

17th 7.00PM North Park mall in Dallas Texas.

[Futuza]

Although it wasn't everything I wanted, it was still awesome and well worth my time and money.

1. To blow up the 120-km "Death Star" in Star Wars, the rebels needed detailed plans for the base and a full-scale invasion force -- as well as the supernatural targeting skills of the most powerful Force-user in the galaxy. To destroy the exponentially larger and better-protected "Starkiller Base" inThe Force Awakens, all that was needed was a janitor with no special skills, a few run-of-the-mill handheld explosives, a couple not very difficult X-wing blaster strikes, and some moxie. It also helped that the Millennium Falcon was able to "fly low."

2. The wily Han Solo loses track of his most prized possession, the Millennium Falcon, for more than a dozen years. He has no idea where it is -- in the entire Galaxy. When you lose something in your house, that's bad; when you lose something on your planet, you kiss it goodbye but pray for a miracle; when you lose something in the entire Galaxy, you just get on with your life. And yet, less than a minute after Rey begins piloting the Millennium Falcon, Han looks out the window of his freighter and says, "Oh, there it is."

3. Kylo Ren, a powerful Force-user, fights a light saber duel with an ex-janitor who has never held a light saber and yet (a) never uses the Force on his opponent, though doing so would have ended the duel immediately, and (b) barely wins the fight, suggesting that he is simultaneously one of the least strategic wielders of the Force the Dark Side has ever seen and, despite his training, absolutely terrible with a light saber. None of this stops Kylo Ren from designing and building his own, completely impractical cross-barred lightsaber.

4. Rey becomes nearly as effective a Force-user in a few hours as Luke Skywalker did in a few years.

5. Just minutes before Starkiller Base explodes, Supreme Leader Snoke tells Hux to go get Kylo Ren and take him off the planet. Unfortunately, Ren had recently (unbeknownst to Hux) run into the woods like a lunatic, leaving no information about his whereabouts. It's no problem, though, because Hux apparently has special Kylo Ren GPS and (one assumes) goes right to the spot in the middle of the forest where Ren is bleeding to death; otherwise, Ren would have died on the planet along with everybody else from the First Order.

...

 

 

11. Kylo Ren is the head of the Knights of Ren, but there are no other Knights of Ren in the movie.

...

 

 

 

27. How did Kylo Ren manage to get Darth Vader's mask into his little fetish den? This is only the most significant piece of memorabilia in the entire Galaxy. Not a plot hole per se, but still odd. And yet a similar question could be asked of Rey: how did she get that X-wing pilot helmet, and why doesn't she sell it for food? And why does Teedo (a fellow scavenger on Jakku) just give Rey BB-8 after capturing the droid, given that as an experienced trader Teedo would already know that (as Rey quickly discovers) BB-8 is worth 100 times more than any random pile of junk either he or Rey could ever offer Plutt? Now that is a plot hole.
