I haven't looked into it myself, but a few guys on a different msg board I post on all said the Target one was the one to get. The other ones are just different packaging or have fewer special features, I guess. Again, I haven't researched for myself.

This movie does move rather quickly and I certainly would have enjoyed a little more character development dialogue, but it definitely is fun.

From all accounts Episode 8 will be much different. I read something that JJ kidn of regretted not directing that one after he read the script and how amazing it is. Wish it was something he could write.

For all I can tell it could be happening in real time. There certainly isn't any evidence that they are all getting to know each other during the moments between scenes. But then you have mysterious lines like "ahh, the girl I've heard so much about."

Interesting little look at how a scene shot earlier in the film was used later
