Yeah it's seldom crowded, but I expected more on an opening night.

This movie is a giant "fuck you" to Rian Johnson though. That's my favorite part.

Definitely one of my least favorite parts. Felt like a response to a YouTuber or a Reddit thread.

Do people not watch movies at 7:30 anymore? Honestly I never do so I don't know.

This movie didn't start until 8 though. Thirty minutes of trailers and commercials. Unbelievable.

I might have guessed too high in the box office thread.

At least Rian could put together some iconic shots. None of that here. I don't even think he's a bad filmmaker. Abrams is such a goddamn hack in comparison.

my boss said he got the last ticket to the 6:30 show there so maybe that's the latest they go.

and yeah, it's insane how much crap is in front of the movie now.

Well, I just watched the worst Star Wars movie.

This is exactly what you'd expect from a Disney-made Star Wars movie. Soulless. Pointless. Nonsensical. Shallow. Rehashed. Pandering. Corporate. It's like it was generated by algorithm.

J J has knocked this one out of the park. It's perfect. Eleven stars.

I think it's probably worse than Attack of the Clones. At least that one had that droids vs clones battle with inventive designs. Good eye candy if nothing else. That one was really bad though.

Tough call.
