It appears, per the reviews, that you are correct. What Critics Think About the New Star Wars Film Spoiler alert: (Almost) everyone loves it. December 15, 2015 The New York Times The verdict: The movie is good. Director J.J. Abrams—described in the review as the love child of George Lucas and Steven Spielberg—"hasn’t made a film only for true believers; he has made a film for everyone (well, almost)." http://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...itics-are-saying-about-the-new-star-wars-film
Why Force Awakens Can’t Hope to Match the Box-Office Power of the Original What’s stronger than the Force? Inflation December 16, 2015 A New Hope was a smash success financially, a bona fide blockbuster in the dawn of the blockbuster era. With cinemas screening the original Star Wars for most of 1977 and 1978, the film garnered $512 million in ticket sales. What’s truly incredible about that figure is that movie tickets in 1977 cost just $2.23 on average1. That means about 230 million people went to see the film, slightly more than the population of the U.S. at the time. “It was an absolute phenomenon,” Dergarabedian said. “And it came just after Jaws, which kind of set up the blockbuster mentality.” In today’s dollars, the first Star Wars is a $2.4 billion movie, slightly more than what Goldman Sachs expects from The Force Awakens. The other financial wizardry in the original Star Wars can be seen on the spending side. It was produced for about $11 million, according to IMDb, a cheap budget that in today’s dollars would be about $43 million. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...ope-to-match-box-office-of-original-star-wars
Looking forward to seeing it. In other news, you guys have to watch the bad lip readings of star wars, I was laughing out loud at my screen. First one Second Third They are f*cking hilarious.
Very enjoyable. Better than the last three. Luke had a very tough go of it. Cinematography was superb! That view and then slide down the dune caught me. The nail on my left 3rd finger is very short now. 4.49 out of 5.
Ronda Rousey got so rocked last month that she joined The First Order a few days back. About last night.... Star Wars was awesome .... I'm a little short for a stormtrooper....
Spoiler: I FORGOT WE HAD THESE He was the stormtrooper guarding Rey's cell that got told to leave the blaster behind.
Spoiler: Spoilers I am surprised they got Harrison Ford to come back for the part that he did. He wants nothing to do with star wars anymore.
