So are any press able to watch the movie before it hits theaters? Will there be any reviews prior or what?

Pretty common, though the reasons for it vary.

Me too. I'm glad he's downplaying the midichlorians. Bad idea to begin with. Pretty much what he is saying is what I always thought about the Force. It's like we're twinsies.

Super entertaining and fun. Seems like a great group of people to make a movie with.

Driver says the movie reflects the way our own world moves on from war and tragedy. “We have such short memories of huge events, and mass genocide, and then we forget about it, it seems,” Driver says, and then it seems the same horrors repeat themselves. In terms of Star Wars, he says, the heroes we know have evolved, but the problems they face are eternal. “Finding these people, a lot of things have changed, but the circumstances are the same,” Driver says. “I found that very true.”
That is great. Im lookin forward to seeing his character

I had a thought this morning after reading what driver said about the character not being fully formed. What if Kylo Ren goes from a Sith to a jedi?
