I have my ticket for a fan event at 6pm and then I am seeing it in IMAX 3D on Friday night and then I am sure I will see it again.
Lol...how are the Star Wars "super fans" any different in their fanatical quirks than the "super fans" of Disney???
Anyone else going to see The Last Jedi or am I the only Star Wars nerd here lol.
We have tickets for the 7:00 show tomorrow evening (Thursday the 14th) and then again on the weekend. In preparation for tomorrow we have dubbed this to be Star Wars Eve and have taken today and tomorrow off work. Today is popcorn and begin a Star Wars movie marathon. Tomorrow we complete the marathon, invite everyone over for pizza and then hit the theatre.
Can't even begin to think about Christmas until after the movie.
That's normal right?
Anyone else excited?
I'm the oddball, I guess. We were offered free tickets to tonight's show through DH's work, but aren't going. The theater is just going to be too crowded. I know I'll get stuck next to somebody who's half dead with a cold or flu but who wasn't going to miss this movie even if it means spreading disease to half the city! Plus, it's so long I know I'll end up climbing over people to get to the bathroom. I'll just wait until January when the crowds clear out.

I'll see it eventually, but no particular rush. I grew up right in the wheelhouse of when the original movies were released. So I enjoy them, but I would definitely be classified as a very casual fan. Don't have any memorabilia, shirts, etc...at all, but I did enjoy the movies. However, honestly, I'm a bit hesitant about when Star Wars Land is set to open. I'd be super excited to see it, but not sure I want to be mixed in with the "super fans"...they scare me a bit. It's just a movie. But that's just my own opinion, I feel the same way about comic books and superheroes...though I have zero interest in those.
Okay, just got back. That movie was something else, I'll give it that. No spoilers, but it is one heck of a ride, but like Space Mountain at Magic Kingdom, a bit on the rough side. Seeing it on our brand new IMAX screen was a treat though (though dang that thing was LOUD!). We were literally the first audience ever in it, so that was very cool. Had a great time, and I need to see it again to really soak it all in. Enjoy your showings, everyone!
Saw it this evening. Won't spoil it for you, but it had the audience cheering, laughing and in rapturous applause. One guy screamed at the tension at one point. There were plenty of laughs too! AMAZING movie! If you can see it in 3-D too, go for it!
