I got my tickets to go see Star Wars: The Force Awakens at 10:30 AM Friday. Can't wait to finally see this movie. How long as is everyone else waiting to see SW? Are you going to be one of those people who see it on Thursday night, somewhere on opening week or someone who waits a week or two when the crowds die down a bit?

I'm waiting to watch it on the 22nd so I can watch it with my little brother when I visit for Christmas. I might stay off the internet for four days because I hate that everyone is going to be hyping it or putting it down and I'd rather just go in with the expectations I have now.

jar jar binks and the piece of wood they got to play young anakin cured me of SW hysteria forever.

They are actually making a movie about Bill Lee

I'd love to see that.

I saw Brooklyn yesterday with my wife. I have to say, not my favorite type of movie but they really nailed it. I married an Irish girl, she was born and raised here but she has dual citizenship, was raised basically by her grandmother who came over when she was 20. So many little things that seem so authentically Irish - the Irish/Catholic guilt, etc.. they just nailed it. Some of it is so subtle I can't even describe, but when I see it it's obvious to me.

It was really good, so if your significant other says she wants to see a chic flick, this is one you could easily survive through.

Watched "The Good Dinosaur". It was OK, far from the best Pixar--like "Inside Out" for instance--but better than "Cars 2" or "Monsters University".

Of course, now I will be haunted by questions of how creatures without opposable thumbs can farm.

Have we discussed "soaked in bleach"???

If not, we should. On Netflix now...

I'm going on the 21st. I'm the same way re: staying away from the interwebs once it comes out.

"Creed" is getting great reviews. Some even saying it deserves to be nominated for multiple Academy Awards.

Finally saw this today. It was great - reminds you of the original Rocky. Some humor, sadness, action, reminiscing. The fight scenes were very well done. I'm guessing at least one, if not both Stallone and Jordan get nominated.
