Awesome!

I was not disappointed.

Now I won't post any spoilers, but I can't speak for anyone else on the thread, so proceed carefully. ...and there are a few plot points that probably won't stay secret for long, so get thee to a cinema!

Lots of old school star wars references and characters, lots of lovely new aliens to enjoy. Old cast great, new cast even better.

I was a little disappointed that of the hundreds of fans who turned out for the midnight showing, only a handful were women. Where were you all? The main character is a bad-ass lady, so there's no excuse that this is a boys film.

All in all, a few hours well spent. 10/10.
Before I say more, what did anyone else think?

Could dd 15 enjoy as a stand alone? I can't seem to encourage force her to watch original trilogy (will keep trying) but she fancies vii.

We saw it yesterday!

I think it's one of my favourite films ever!

Rey is a fantastic character. And there were women everywhere! Women in the background, women pilots, women lieutenants, women at the war table thingy. (Sure, they only made up about 20-30% of the on-screen population but they were there! Huge compared to the absence in the previous 6 films!). And then there was Captain Phasma (I'm excited about seeing more of her in the next films).

And Kylo Ren! What a fantastic bit of casting! I couldn't imagine anyone better!

I want a Rey action figure but they don't seem to be available.
