It sure is. But it works best when it emphasizes and plays into its fantasy strengths.

World premiere is actually tonight.
Review embargo lifts Wednesday at 9am.

But avoid twitter. I’ve muted all Star Wars names words and terms

It actually works. Zero Star Wars on my twitter feed.

Yeah, probably best to mute everything Star Wars until next week. Official reviews may be under embargo but there will be still be loads of comments and thoughts online about the movie. It's so close now, so not worth risking any big spoilers.

So certain are you.

It’s frustrating and unfair the way Hollywood and the academy don’t even consider films like Star Wars for any of the big five.

Being in Star Wars, or any action film, doesn't really necessitate what The Academy considers great acting.

Early reactions are mixed. Some saying it’s the best Star Wars ever. Others not so much.

No spoilers here
