There were a total of three simultaneous showings at the TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood last night. Most participants gave a vow of #NoSpoilers on Twitter. Reactions have been mixed…

 

And without spoiling it, I can say that #StarWarsForceAwakens has the BEST final shot of any Star Wars film. Wow.

Only thing I didn’t like in #StarWarsForceAwakens was Abba’s “Super Trouper” on the soundtrack whenever there were stormtroopers.

Rob Liefeld (creator of Deadpool and Calbe) weighed in as well. Sharing his own history with the franchise –

I'm an OG Star Wars fan, saw it opening weekend 1977. Returned twice a weekend every weekend through fall. It was my obsession. I was 9.

The magic of the original has always resonated with me. A NEW HOPE has always been my favorite, that won't ever change.

What thrilled me as a kid were the faces and places in Star Wars. The various characters and the locales that were visited.

I felt that again with The Force Awakens. All new locales, all new faces brilliantly mixed with familiar friends and themes.

The new characters are GREAT! Poe, Rey, Finn and Kylo drive this new saga and carry the films narrative.

I have yet to read a negative review, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any. I will be having a small give away with my podcast this weekend, with a spoiler-free review on the podcast. I’ll also be giving my “year in review” regarding all things geeky. I look forward to gushing with you!
