Star Wars VII

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Should probably keep that one sealed. If you open it, you might never find the action figure again.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

This Star Wars thing is all very well but I'm more worried about what they've done to Charlie Brown and co! Sorry, slight derail there. :wink:

Why what have they done to Charlie? They better not have messed with Pig-Pen.
I loved that pigeon as a man loves a woman, and she loved me.

Outrageously good!
Only film I've ever been to where the audience clapped as it ended.
Cheers.

I loved it.

The day after, I was trying to kid people in work that they had CGI'd Alec Guinness into it. A colleague of mine insisted that I'd actually said Alec Gilroy.

Now that's a film I'd pay to see.

Yeah, it's good. Better than the prequels and, nostalgia aside, maybe up there with Return Of The Jedi.

I'm probably going to see for the first time entire Star Wars movie. Probalby, because that day (Dec. 27) I'm going to collect car that I bought, few hundreds km from home.

Loved it. Better then Jedi, almost as good as Empire.

**very important question**

should i see it in 3d or 2d do you think?
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

I have read several reports that the 3D one isn't really worth going for & that the 3D effects don't really bring much extra to the whole experience.
I can only go by what I've read though. I saw it in 2D & it was still really mind blowing. TBH you still get totally absorbed by it in 2D. There are a lot of fast moving sequences that might end up a bit of a mess in 3D.
Cheers.

thats what i thought, thanks steve. i dont do the cinema hardly at all anymore -mainly due to £££'s - and ive only ever seen one 3d film. that was a kids film but i remember being quite distracted by the 3d effect to the detriment of the film.

I saw Gravity in 3D & that was quite sedate in comparison & it looked to have been made with 3D in mind. That was very good. Especially the teardrop moment. Now that was special.
The Lego movie (yes I know) on the other hand didn't really benefit. Probably because it was so manic.
Cheers.
