Haha nah no pillow or blanket.. Or PJs.
It didn't really make a lot of sense to plan to sleep, but I guess it was just a night out with mates. It was fun.
Do they even do them anymore? They used to happen every holidays.

Massive star wars fan here, watched the re release in 97 in the movies, my grandmother took us, she got confused because the storm troopers are the bad guys, but are wearing white. Then got the videos of the originally trilogy.... My brother and I would watch them all the time.... Wore the tapes out. Saw all the prequels in the cinema..... And saw TFA on Wednesday at the midnight screening. Was amazing, JJ Abrams deserves all the praise in the world. Using practical effects again just made the film look much more like the OG trilogy. Having Lawrence Kasdan write TFA was a good move by Disney. Really was a good film and being someone who hated the prequels, I am so bloody happy I just want to watch it again.
They had a lot to live up to since the prequels really weren't well received by the true fans.
Were there heaps of people dressed up at the midnight screenings?

Not really, there were a few dudes in bathrobes, a few actual Jedis costumes. Mostly people just had on their star wars T shirts.... Actually there was a group of guys dressed in start treck costumes.... No idea what that was about.
I guess they thought they were funny.
I think some dressing up at a movie premiere can be a bit of fun. Like a fancy dress party. I've never done it though.
So was George Lucas not involved in this movie?

I would have went, loves those movies. Watched Clueless at almost every single sleepover in primary school.
Thank you.[DOUBLEPOST=1450396610][/DOUBLEPOST]
Nope, he sold Lucas film to Disney for 4 billion dollars. Best thing to ever happen to star wars.
My Mr loooooves Star Wars. Me, not so much. When they started having each movie in the storyline order on TV a few weeks back, he got the kids hooked. The three of them are so super pumped, it's even rubbed off a tiny teeny bit onto me
4 billion dollars?!? Holy moly![DOUBLEPOST=1450396702][/DOUBLEPOST]
Yeah I had a friend who was super obsessed and I could never really understood why. Once I watched them all in order though I can appreciate that they are decent films for what they are.My Mr loooooves Star Wars. Me, not so much.

I still love these two movies
At one point in my teens, my future child was for certain going to be called Tai 
I watched one at the cinema with Mr C, in the time before the kids. I think it was the one where Luke & Leia were conceived. He got pretty pissed off with my questions - but how is that hottie meant to be darth vader? are there going to be any Ewoks in this one? So I never had to go again

Well if it ever comes again I know who I'm asking. I will force @Affable to cone too, I am determined for him to see Clueless before he dies!
Haha Coops, are you saying you didn't name your child Tai?!? Cher was my favourite, such a sweet girl. There wasn't really any villain in that movie was there, everyone was likeable. Oh I guess there was Amber.
@jessy_girl have you 'liked' Zooper Doopers on Facebook.
They have all these little videos with a dancing penguin.
I can only find this one on YouTube, but there are more on their Facebook.

Pretty sure that's how much Disney payed for Marval as well.
Not that I didn't believe you
but I googled it. Absolutely insane amount of money. Half cash half Disney stocks. Not a bad racket.

I just read an article that Disney are going to make like 6 billion in revenue off the star wars merchandise next year. The projected revenue from the tickets sakes was only like 1.5 billion.... Crazy.Not that I didn't believe you
Unfortunately by the time we were working out a name for Miss 10, we had a nephew Tyler, so didn't want anything that similar. Geez I loved that name
We are going to see if the internetz gods can provide the movie to us in the comfort of our home. If not, we will probably go & watch it over the Christmas break. Everything is better on the big screen
But I don't think I could do 3D.
I could never do the old 3D (red and blue lenses or green or whatever they were) but have found that modern 3D doesn't give me a headache.We are going to see if the internetz gods can provide the movie to us in the comfort of our home.

Avatar (this time the blue people movie) was pretty stunning in 3D, I even saw it at IMAX 3D.
