Am I the only one who doesn't care about Star Wars?
It's not that I don't care so much as I'm really sick of the hype.  It's a movie for god's sake.

It's a movie in a franchise where the previous 3 entries were effin' terrible.  I refuse to get caught up in the hype like I did for Phantom Menace.  That was such a let down that I didn't even see the last 2 in theaters.  And I plan to not see this one in the theater either unless I am thoroughly convinced that it is worth it.  From the early reviews I have heard, it is not.  Everybody that I have heard a review from says it has awesome parts, but there are huge plot holes and it is mostly fan service for Han Solo and Chewy fans.  They try to sound upbeat about it, but I can sense the disappointment in their reviews.  That's pretty much the same thing I heard from early Phantom Menace reviews before it became popular to hate those movies.

 
I was watching the 6 o'clock news this morning before work.  They went live to one of the theatres here and it was packed.  Apparently the theatre started showing the movie when it premiered last night and they haven't stopped since.

I'm definitely going to go see the movie, however I am going to wait until after the initial panic wears off. I think any movie is going to have a hard time living up to this level of hype, a good example is the last hobbit movie in my opinion it was pretty terrible.
