Sold I am

So was Pete's Dragon.  Doesn't mean it was worth anything at the box office.

So you are saying SW is a shoe in then?

Anybody thinking happy thoughts about Disney and Star Wars movies should think of two words: John Carter.

The title totally sank it.  If they had stuck with Princess of Mars it would have done much better.

I haven't thought of pete's Dragon in years.  It was my favorite movie once upon a time.

Virtually no advertising, and they put it out in direct competition with The Avengers.  If nothing else, a Star Wars release would be the AAA feature pushing everything else out of the way.  Also, there's no way they'd put out a movie as bad as Attack of the Clones or Revenge of the Sith.  Pacing?  Continuity?  What are those?

If they want to make more Star Wars fims, maybe they should go back and do Episodes 1-3 right first before worrying about episode 7.

Perhaps. Those are too recent, though. Do Episodes 7-9, and if they are successful, re-do Episodes 1-3.

Holy shit, you mean I can watch a totally awesome movie and not have to worry about teenagers ruining my movie experience?

Great job, Disney!

A much more entertaining movie than any of the prequels. I blame Disney's atrocious marketing campaign for it flopping.

They should remake the whole Star Wars series, but make it much darker; just cast Henry Kissenger as Darth Vader.
