They will be there too but I think you underestimate the amount that kids are into Star Wars. I had no idea until I visited some friends with kids. They are massively into it. There this whole wider Star Wars universe they are into. It's huge.

Ah, cheers.

Has Luke Skywalker turned into that Darth thing on the poster?

I'm not overly excited by this new one but I'd like to see it. The problem is finding a cinema that isn't rammed with nerds and doesn't reek of teenage jizz and blathering 14 year olds.

All seems like it will be good except for the eternally annoying, not that funny, ever so chuffed with himself, Simon Pegg turning up. You don't see it on that, but Daniel Craig is a Stormtrooper in there somewhere too.

In the wider Star Wars universe Darth Maul is alive in a cave somewhere with mechanical legs and gone insane after his Sith Witch mother fixed him up. *I have a nephew who is mad keen. I don't like sci fi that much, though I liked the first new Star Trek one.

Oh, tell a lie, I walked out of Kingdom of the crystal skull about 40 mins in too. When I realised it wasn't going to improve.

Watching the TERRIBLE acting as Anakin turns into Vader, the locked arms and legs, the laughable Frankenstein walk, part of me died. Plus Ewan McGregor, one of the world's most uncharismatic actors, trying to sound like a young Alec Guinness but just sounding like Mr Cholmondley-Warner was...

That's all I could stomach! I have only walked out of one other film, one of the Transformers ones, cannot recall which one.

Disney weren't involved in ep1-3

It's alright and good in parts . The reason it lacks a meaty story is that a writers strike was called during the script process, they couldn't postpone filming so Daniel Craig actually wrote most of the second half of the film. He freely admits he did a poor job.

As mentioned, Lucas isn't involved in the story so there's a chance it won't be shit. I recall when we went to watch Phantom Menace. The feeling was good, the famous music and scrolling came on screen, lovely stuff. I would say within 20 mins the whole audience could tell it was a total Turkey...

I think they'll do a good job but , as good news as it is for stunts and Special Action trade ,I think they'll overkill the franchise with all the films they've got planned . They'll kill the appetite for it. 7 films planned so far I think.

It's such a shame that these days they have to practically release the film in serial form through features and trailers in the months preceding the actual release. I'm a bit sick of seeing JJ Abrams' smug face all over the internet.
