It's been out for four days in the USA. I've seen it.
1,000,000/10 will definitely watch again.

I meant my comment as a bit of wry observation. I don't know about where you may be, but here, in Los Angeles, and particularly Hollywood, where I live, the whole SW release has been bit a bit of a hassle. Aside from the near 24/7 media pounding of the SW drum, traffic in Hollywood has been awful starting about a week and a half before the premiere date. In addition to two major movie premieres held on Hollywood Blvd., there was the traditional, ceremonial gathering of the SW lemmings..er, um,..fans, who lined up starting about two weeks before the official premiere and release dates. The whole situation necessitated the closure of about a mile of Hollywood Blvd. and forced traffic off onto various side streets and avenues. The quiet little side streets became a bit more hazardous as drivers, frustrated and delayed by the traffic crunch, went speeding down those streets seeking to avoid the crush. All this because of a bunch of people who seem, otherwise, to have no real life...

I drove down to the discount theater where half the theater was full on the 18th to see it. Everybody goes to the big theater in the bigger town. You can see the same movie for four dollars less 30 minutes down the road.

You also made an unsubstantiated assumption that I have no interest in the movie; so, are you saying those who don't 'appreciate' the disruption of the lemmings are not fans of the movies themselves? Rather a bit narrow, no?... You seem rather a bit defensive on the subject; so, how long did you camp out for the film opening?... <O>

I'm not defensive over Star Wars. While I like it, I'm no fanatic. However, I learned to hate the "no life" accusation. It is nothing but cheap in the end, and what kind of a phrase is that anyways? How do you measure if someone has "no life"? What is "having a life"? I just find it cheap, shallow and... dumb, that's all. Also, I don't think those who camped there have been aware of causing that much trouble. I wasn't there, but from what I have seen on other occasions, these people usually do no harm, they simply are a little crazy about their hobby. Nothing wrong with it as long as they had no bad intentions, I think. Even if they caused such problems, I'm sure they still "have a life". That's all. |

I note you are in Germany; imagine what would happen or what the reaction would be if a major commercial and/or residential thoroughfare were shutdown for an entire week in, say, central Berlin because of some entertainment function and you happened to live in the area impacted. Add to this the fact large sums of civic funds, taxpayer funds, would have to be expended to deal with the disruptions without any recompense from those either causing the disruption or from those whose entertainment those fans were there to see. It is somewhat similar to the defense of so-called "victim-less crimes"; very, very often it's only victim-less if you happen to not be the one victimized... <O>
