Kind of funny, my wife is shopping in Chicago today with a friend of hers - look who she spotted at the Disney store:

I want to watch the original, in the ORIGINAL form, with my wife as she hasn't see them.
Harmy's Despecialised Edition.
Closest thing to the originals that have been cleaned up (dirt wise) with 5.1 surround.

Well apparently TODAY IS THE BIG DAY. At least here in Finland. I do not have TIX, but I see there are plenty of seats available tomorrow and Friday so I'll probably go then. Really don't wanna spoil anything for myself so I've stayed away from reviews and the latest trailers, but I did look up the metascore, it's... 83 Hmm! Expectations adjusted accordingly.

I have tickets for tomorrow night - very excited. I'm most interested in seeing how Abrams blends the old and new casts together, and if they work well sharing screen time. You can tell from the trailers that he has the "feel" of Star Wars nailed pretty good, but there's still a ton to live up to. Here's hoping he's learned from all of Lucas' mistakes.

You know, I'm pretty sure George Lucas doesnt think he made any mistakes.

I'm sure we can blame the title of this thread on Lucas.

What does that have to do with anything?

It was kind of a sarcastic comment about how George Lucas is incredibly rich? Do you think that he gives any fucks about Star Wars?
Renault on 17/12/2015 at 15:29
Funny, I just read something that said Lucas sold Lucasfilm too cheap. it went for 4 billion, and some experts think between merchandising and whatever else, they might make that back on the first movie alone.
And no matter what Lucas says, I'm guessing he still gives lots of fucks about SW.

But that money might not have been made if Lucas still owned it...
