Saw it yesterday morning.  OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG SO AWESOME!!!!  It felt just like the original trilogy.

Some of the theaters offer collectible SW-themed 3D glasses.  Hubby went to a showing on Thursday that offered them, and they're pretty neat.  (The showing we went to together yesterday was 3D, but didn't offer the collectible glasses.)

Going tomorrow with my roommates. Quite excited.

EDIT: Aaaaannndd Holy Mother of the Force! That was absolutely amazing!
Now I'm just wondering when spoilers are allowed so I can discuss the events.

So I just got back from watching it, holy crap that was fucking Awesome!!!!!

Awesome theater, awesome theater full of fans, who cheered and reacted to the scenes. 

One thing I noticed in the theater we were in:

When Rey called on the Force and beat Kylo Ren to a pulp, I remember sitting there thinking it wasn't very realistic, since she doesn't seem to have any training.  But when she knocked Kylo on his ***, the entire theater erupted.  They didn't care if it was realistic or not.  They had just seen Kylo kill Han Solo, and now, nearly everyone watching wanted the boy's head.  It was a great moment watching and hearing everyone's reaction.  That was a memorable moment for me.

I loved it. I would also like to know when we can start talking about it sans spoilers.

[guizonde]

i'll try and see it in english tomorrow, if all goes well.

[Art Vandelay]

You guys realise that spoiler tags are a thing, right?

[davedan]

Much like pants, spoiler tags can't contain my excitement.

Saw it last night...

Rest in Peace, Han Solo. As far as I'm concerned, you always shot first.

That may end up being part of why Leia left him...

But seriously, that's the spoiler I saw online most often, and I have a special place prepared for the people who did it:

[guizonde]

ok, i'm biting the bullet and going to see it, in french and in 3d... oh well. hope it's worth it.

[Svata]

In the theater now for it.


Okay, out and sitting down again. Good movie, couldn't help but notice the distinct lack of severed limbs that would have been present is Lucas would have been involved.

[ironbite]

OH that hit all the right spots.

Ironbite-seriously all of them just....uh!

[guizonde]

i think i'm... underwhelmed by the movie. the hype was so great, i was expecting something mind-blowing. too... badly-paced, i guess. the scenario holds up, mostly, the acting is good, the fanservice (not in a sexy sense) is immense, but i wouldn't call it better than a good movie.

Dont forget Chewie shot Ben SoloKylo Ren in the side. He certainly wasnt at full power at that point, thanks to that badass Wookie.

Did anyone spot Daniel Craig?
