I know we have a seperate thread about the movie, but i feel i just have to put my view across after a 3rd viewing. I will admit i was wrong in being so ignorant and before TFA was released. Overall it is a good movie, and it has put SW back on the map in a better way the prequels did. Sonny has taken to it massively and its rekindled his love of Star Wars so i havent been watching Avengers on loop over Xmas :lol: He already has a huge Kylo figure and voice mask and we will be putting his display shelves up today. I dunno, but there is something about seeing my child beaming and loving something so much,especially as he is busy sorting his loose collection to display. It defiantely takes me back 30 years and it is evoking memories.
So yes, it is a good movie, although im not going to say it has or will reached the heights that the OT did in my eyes - which will never happen. Im actually really looking forward to the Rogue One movie now. Ok, they may be Lucas free and we have to understand that he is the reason why Star Wars exists, but someone needs to carry the mantle. I do wish they would use his as a consultant though. I also understand that there are some who dislike the movie, but i understand that completely. There are some issues with it, but every movie has them and im willing to give it the benefit of the doubt.
So basically, i was wrong and it wasnt the car crash i thought it would be. A 7/8 out of 10 for myself and probably a 9 out of 10 for Sonny.
Now lets sit back and enjoy more Star Wars in years to come. Lets pass this hobby on to the younger generation to enjoy for years to come and encourage them to keep the flame burning. Whether you love the OT,hate the PT and hate TFA or love all three it doesnt matter - what matters is that we keep this legend alive.
