    What's up my fellow hardcore SW fan Cantina members about to be in a theater when the lights go dim!!!!! What will be going through your mind at that moment? Will you be telling yourself that it can't be real? Will you have butterflies and the feeling like you are about to throw up? Will you be skeptical or optimistic? Me.....oh that's easy. I'm gonna down a couple airplane bottles before I go just to calm my nerves. Pass some time and share your crazy scenarios! (darth)

    I will be eagerly awaiting the crawl. What will it say? What will the transition be? Will we be over Jakku? Will it open on a Star Destroyer?

    It's that few seconds gap between "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far, away..." and STAR WARS appearing and the music starting.

    I always worry there's a fault and the film has stopped!

    Dressing my son in his Vader PJs. He loves them. He wore them to Star Wars weekend at Disney.

    My daughter will be harder she does not have a high tolerance for costumes. My wife is trying to make her an R2 costume so we will see.

    Well my wife and I will likely sit the kids between us to keep them somewhat wrangled and pray no one needs to use the bathroom.

    very excited of course, but just hoping that no one starts eating something that makes too much noise! anyways im certain that as soon as the lucas arts logo appears i will be kind of emotional and ready to get into the immersive experience. as i see the opening crawl and start reading i know it will be a good storyline by kasdan and jj ... i know its his best film yet and his genius shows it, he can add subtle easters eggs like ello atsy and add humor to the story :p .... whats that i hear? the opening cralw music is now "sabotage" by beastie boys ? damn ... halfway throught the opening crawl the screen goes black and the " error pc invalid driver appears" digital projection needs to be uptated damn it tarantino was right !

    kidding aside it will be an experience as soon as we see lucas arts and that drum sound :p

    My pants will be tight that's for sure and possibly getting tighter as the crawl comes. Might get a bit wet too. But as soon as the crawl comes and the music starts playing I'm going to lose it and start cheering so hard I'll probably cry.

    I don't mean to burst your bubble but there won't be the 20'th century fox drum roll.

    I'm going to be sitting between my husband and my best friend. We'll all be dressed up: husband will be Han Solo, I'll be my sith inquisitor from SWTOR, my friend will be Rey with her (very tiny) BB8, and her husband will be Kylo Ren. I'll be smiling from ear to ear knowing that a new movie is actually upon us. I'll be thrilled knowing that a new generation of Star Wars fans will be introduced to the wonderful world that we've all enjoyed since we can remember. It'll seem unreal and I may cry but it'll be a fantastic moment that will be very hard to forget.

    Hell, in '77 I was in a small town theater and the place was GOING NUTS while the Rebels were kicking ass on the Death Star. Then Han showed up to shadow Luke...and man, you couldn't hear the damned movie!! NOW here we are 38 years later, and here we go....it's going to be AWESOME!!

    Yeah, Luke's going to show up and say a bad ass line but no one will hear it because they'll be flipping out.

    Interesting. I've honestly never been in a theater where people were cheering and getting into the movie, other then laughing at a comedy.
