    You have produced an amazing movie, that is all I have to say... it is an outstanding piece of cinema. My anxieties surrounding Star Wars have been put to rest and I am over the moon with this new direction.

    J.J. Abrams, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Michael Ardnt, Lawrence Kasdan, Kathleen Kennedy, Peter Mayhew, Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill.. you are all amazing people. I will cherish the day I watched TFA with my loved ones for the rest of my life. Thank you.

    It may very well turn out to be my favorite, the Star Wars universe has been enriched with these characters and Han so incredibly well done.. and Leia felt just like the woman she was in the originals. The same souls. J.J. Abrams has proven himself as great director. It surpassed my already sky high expectations.

    Yes, we owe them our gratitude... though with the amount of money I'm spending on repeat viewings at the theater, I'm not sure I owe *THAT* much (lol).

    i think it's unfortunate that in this specific fanbase, people are criticized for their opinions on the films... people are so hesitant when they say they like/love the prequels or have ranked TFA over any of the originals. i'm glad TFA was your favorite. you have no reason to hesitate!

    Yep. I wen't to my third viewing last night on a small screen with great sound. It was my favorite viewing so far. It didn't feel too fast paced at all. The Unkar Plutt cgi was incredible. Luke looked so grief stricken that I wanted to give that guy a big hug. I could go on and on. I am so pleased with this film and it gets better with every viewing. They have done an amazing job and as a hard core fan I am so grateful for this film. To the entire team that brought this film into fruition, you all blew my socks off and now I walk barefooted every day.

    My fears were washed away with TFA!! I loved it, thought it was great! I can't remember the last time I had so much fun, gone through so many different emotions while watching a film...it's been since about 1980... :)

    Again, great, great, great!!

    It hadn't even got ten minutes in and I was sitting with my mouth wide open.. They've managed to make Star Wars cool while still retaining the nerdier stuff, I don't understand how anyone could dislike it. The whole "A New Hope 2.0" thing is really only noticeable when other people point it out.. but it was so different in other ways that it makes up for it... and goddamn Luke looks badass.

    Can't get it out of my head since I watched it! feel like I need to go again as soon as possible! Kylo Ren who I thought was going to be a bit lame of a copycat character, is addressed as such by Rey in the movie (great direction) and justified as a character. also his family ties and his instability are really interesting. I think "Ben Solo" will be redeemed in this trilogy, maybe.
