Lampsacus, just watch the movies in chronological order, and inbetween trilogies, just watch Heartbeeps, The 'Burbs, and Hot to Trot.

Apparently everyone camping outside Mann's Chinese Theater was just invited inside by Disney/Lucasfilm executives to watch the movie.

Expect spoilers in several hours.

Yeah. Looking further into it, it looks like the first 100 people in line were invited to the premiere.

I couldn't get tickets that suited my work schedule until the 23rd.

I just realised how loving long that'll be. While you nerds are watching and making GBS threads about the film I'll be rewatching the OT.

Just watch this on a constant loop until the 23rd.

Oof, I was really hoping it'd be, at the very least, better than Attack of the Clones.

for any that have 7pm tickets in the US, when do you think a good time to show up would be? Don't want to be waiting hours, but I don't want lovely seats.

I'd suggest maybe 90 minutes before, unless you want to sit in the first 5 rows.

Gonz: Dec 22, 2009; "Jesus, did I say that? Or just think it? Was I talking? Did they hear me?"

Also, call the theater at, say, 3:00 PM, and ask them if there's a line. If there is, ask them how long it is. If the person responds "more than 150-200", then you're hosed regardless, and can show up about 10 minutes before the movie starts, because you won't be getting a good seat.

Sittning in the theatre with 5 minutes left until the movie starts (11am screening). I didn't know that I was this hype about a Star War, but hey.

Good luck, Spinal Pap. Let us know if your face gets melted.

Hey CelticPredator, I called the theater today and asked them if they were going to be giving away posters at the premiere tomorrow night, and i'm pretty shocked that they said no. Instead, they're selling some theater-themed Star Wars t-shirt for 20 bucks.

This is the first IMAX blockbuster that hasn't had it's own IMAX-specific poster handout in ages. When I bought the tickets back in October, I apparently incorrectly assumed they'd be giving away a poster, because they ALWAYS do. Even The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Iron Man 3 had it's own IMAX poster. Go figure.

Just got to the theater about 20 minutes ago; the concessions area is already getting busy and almost every screen it's showing on is sold out.

I saw these two people waiting in line for a later showing; the girl said she made both of their costumes by hand:

My theater was very boisterous. Lots of good laughs, cheering and hollering at the reveal of all the original characters, and a lot of applause at the end.

I loved the part where the TIE Fighter got shot down by the Star Destroyer wreckage, and no less than a half second later, scavengers swarm the area, assumedly to snatch up as much as they can.

Technically, Starkiller Base didn't blow up. It imploded, and in it's place was a brand new star.

JJ Abrams and Hideo Kojima are both big fans of massive, multimedia ARGs. I have little doubt that everything that's happened between Kojima and Konami is part of an overarching Lucasfilm/Disney metagame.

That's hilarious. Disney is so powerful, they could petition to have a seat on the UN Security Council.

4,000 people are officially pissing into the wind.

Yes...Han Solo, noted Jedi skeptic, has a Jedi training tool laying around his freighter. Makes perfect sense.

Han likely also had a lot of junk laying around that he had collected over the years on the Falcon.

If they're looking for a young Han Solo, they should probably get this kid:

He's already portrayed a youthful Harrison Ford once in a movie:

Looks like the novelization answers a whole lot of questions the movie didn't (and raises new ones, too):

People (and aliens) gotta eat. They also have to pee and poop.

Perhaps we'll finally see a bathroom in Episode VIII or IX.
