    Pretty big spoilers in pictures.

    We're reading Rifts. You should too. You know you want to. Now With Ninjas!

    They tried to bury us. They didn't know that we were seeds. 2018 Midterms. Get your shit together.

    some goose decided to create an account* just so they could post a bunch of pics from the movie. very, very spoiler-y pics.

    its hard enough avoiding the entire rest of the internet, now it feels like we can't even look in the Star Wars thread here. :( i fail to understand some people.

    *multiple accounts maybe.

    Well, I just came back from seeing it. I had a few issues with some decisions made, but overall it's an excellent film definitely worth watching.
    Go see it people!

    there's a ton of countries where it opens to today, and another bunch where it opens tomorrow. i'll be seeing it in the UK tomorrow for instance. US and a few others get it on Friday.

    the account that posted in this thread was Mr Boom Boom, but Robot Santa's post on the previous page lists a few other accounts so i'm think they were all the same person. think they were all created either today or yesterday too.

    Yep, opened here in Norway at 10AM today. I actually took the day off to go see it. Totally worth it.

    In Germany it opens in a little under 5 hours at 1 min past midnight. I am gonna see it then.

    I caught the very tippity top of one of the spoiler pictures. Unfortunately, I'm 90% sure of what it was. :bigfrown:

    Thankfully I temporarily fell into a hype induced coma so I missed the shenanigans.

    UK is about an hour behind that for the earliest screenings. wasn't able to get tickets for any midnight showings though, so i'll be waiting a further 12 hours and 30 minutes after that. still, early afternoon on the first day is still pretty snazzy. :biggrin: watched the original and Empire last night and will relax with Jedi before i go to bed tonight to get me all hyped up. :)

  • Wraith260Wraith260 Happiest Goomba! Registered User regular
    am happy to hear all the people saying the missed the spoilers. i might have been unfortunate but that doesn't mean i wish the same fate on others. good luck to you all staying totally spoiler free in the last few hours/days.

    Nerds who have seen it - does the title crawl include "Episode VII" at all?

    Oh brilliant

    this is making up for all those years when we had to wait months after a US release before we got to see movies. hell, that tradition hasn't even truly died yet. the Muppets reboot a few years back did it. so just be glad you're only waiting a couple of days.

    I'm actually fine with it in all seriousness.

    If anyone is going to see it early, might aswell be the traditionally screwed when it comes to release dates.

    In case of people who want to go in totally blind. Only the answer to the question, promise.
    Yes, it says Episode VII.

    yeah, i just like reminding folks how lucky they've had it in the past with movie and game releases, and how Europe has traditionally gotten screwed over. thankfully the internet has meant that big releases can't be scaled that way any more.

    Report the spoiler troll and don't respond to him, imo

    FYI: That is twice now that a troll has posted screenshots of spoilers from the movie, so ....if you truly want to be spoiler free, this thread is prob off limits as I'm GUESSING the trolls will be back

    Yes, please for the love of God do not respond to spoiler trolls. It'll just make cleaning up the mess a headache instead of a button push.

    I submitted an entry to Lego Ideas, and if 10,000 people support me, it'll be turned into an actual Lego set!If you'd like to see and support my submission, follow this link.

    Well, they finally made a good Star Wars movie again. Could probably quibble about a fair few things, but overall it was good.

    So, if you are on the fence, go watch it.

    Reviews seem to be "it's a great film but it is insignificant next to the power of nostalgia for the old films."

    I've read that's it's probably the best movie of the entire series but not as seminal as the OT for obvious reasons

    I'm surprised I've managed to keep myself spoiler free. I usually can't help myself. All I've seen is thetrailers, which don't tell me much. THis will be a fairly novel experience for that alone.

  • Dr. ChaosDr. Chaos Post nuclear nuisance Registered User regular
    is the imperial march in the film?

    Becuase thats all I need to completely geek out.

    FYI a spoiler picture keeps popping up in these threads. If you really want to be spoiler free you should stay outta here.

    Tomorrow I see this in IMAX at 7pm. Then I have tickets to see it again on Friday. And just last night, I promised my daughter I would take her on Monday.

    After I go home from work today, I am avoiding everything except Destiny and Battlefront. I really do not want to get spoiled on the movie. Just need to last 24 hours. One of my biggest fears is that some jackhole is gonna be talking and spouting spoilers while I am waiting in line to get into the theater. Maybe I just wear earbuds and blast music.

    I am beyond excited.

  • That_GuyThat_Guy I don't wanna be that guy Registered User regular
    Welp, it's begun. I am glad I missed the spoiler. I will see you guys Saturday after I have had a chance to see the movie. Wish me luck. I'm avoiding 4chan, reddit, PA, and all other social media. I'm going to play single player games and binge on netflix.

    As I am sure you are aware because I can't stop talking about it, my office is closing for a company outing to see Star Wars Friday at 3:20pm. We're putting the away message on and letting it roll over to voicemail. We do managed IT for local businesses. As I am sure you can imagine, a whole bunch of people IT nerds wanted to take Tomorrow off. Rather than deal with half the office wanting the day off, the owners decided to make a company outing out of the whole thing. I just found out today that we are even getting paid for the time. Immediately after the movie we are having the company holiday party at one of the most expensive restaurants in town. Christmas bonuses will also be handed out. What i'm trying to say here is that Friday is going to be the best kind of day. See you guys on the flip side!

    My friend who loves STAR WAR saw a midnight screening about 10 hours ago and he loved it.

    That is all.

    I've done some review parsing, and the positive and negative reviews all seem to say the same thing:

    It's fuckin' Star Wars.
