      or people who thought Carrie Fisher was hot

      Can't it be both? Carrie Fisher was definitely hot. There's no question.

        I know let's start out with an unlikely hero on a sand planet, and then have that hero be involved with the most impossible task of destroying a death star or something like it.

        Right, its the same plot over and over, the entire plot of every story is the same thing over and over.

        Gotta blow up the big guys ship.

        As i said - a complete rehash of EP IV... /sigh WTF was Disney/LFL thinking?? Why couldn't it be new?

        Exactly

        They probably thought it was safer to slowly introduce them and kill off the main characters

        Why would they think that? They have the cartoons - granted non of the OT characters save Obi Wan/Vader are in the cartoons (oh and Yoda).

          Anyone who liked SW prior to the rehashing / rebooting

          This is most people though

          Not really. Maybe when you are talking to people my age. But the big new SW draw now is not us.

            not really - it's only really fits for people who are 35 or older today. Tons of 20 somethings have never seen a star wars movie at all.

                The only people I know that don't like Star Wars are women and to be fair these specific women don't like anything so who really cares

                  No he's right, there's a lot of kids (edit Guys) my age ( 21 ~) that havent seen SW nor want to see it!
                  A lot of the kids my age would rather watch the new ones "because better graphics" , I no longer talk to these people.. I dont need that negativity in my life.

                    I'm officially glad I don't know any young people. I'll sit on my porch as an angry old man the rest of time if I need to

                              FYI - I don't consider you young, I'm only 42 for crying outloud. I do consider myself older... but not old.

                                  Anyone who liked SW prior to the rehashing / rebooting

                                  This is most people though

                                  not really - it's only really fits for people who are 35 or older today. Tons of 20 somethings have never seen a star wars movie at all.

                                  Or maybe just the new ones, because they are "popular" as part of the dress up culture that has arisen.

                                    The only people I know that don't like Star Wars are women and to be fair these specific women don't like anything so who really cares

                                    No he's right, there's a lot of kids (edit Guys) my age ( 21 ~) that havent seen SW nor want to see it!
                                    A lot of the kids my age would rather watch the new ones "because better graphics" , I no longer talk to these people.. I dont need that negativity in my life.

                                    That's become a thing. When I was a kid, 50 year old movies were normal to watch. I grew up with movies made in the 30s and 40s and never thought of them as "bad".

                                    Most 20 somethings I talk to today refuse to "watch anything made before I was born", because they have no interest in "old stuff."

                                      I'll give you that.

                                      I hasn't considered that - movies now carter to that whole "new" pop culture thing - cosplay. I think Scott agrees that most only do it because it's the current IN thing to do.

                                        I'm officially glad I don't know any young people. I'll sit on my porch as an angry old man the rest of time if I need to

                                        LOL - he's 32 and considers himself an angry old man... 😛

                                        Dominica and I were watching Growing Pains last night and Dominica said "wow, we are nearly their ages - and they are supposed to have been married exactly as long as us!"

                                        And I'm like... um... we are way older than the parents on this show (we are 42 & 40, Alan Thicke and Joana Kerns were 37 and 32!)

                                          Well they're wrong and you should stop talking to them. You dont need that type of negativity in your life.
                                          I still watch "old movies" from before I was born; Those movies are way better in my opinion;
                                          Especially the SW trilogy
