That was my prediction for the film and why i didn't buy into the star wars hype. I still haven't seen it but ive been reading alot of ppl were disappointed by it. my only motivation to watch it is the fact that everybody has watched it, it's f*ckin ridiculous how its hype makes you feel you have some sorta obligation to watch the film just cause it's a new star wars. that's how powerful the brand name of star wars has become despite the fact that the 3 previous films were also over hyped as sh*t and also didn't deliver.
The movies are hyped like they are more than just a movie, it's f*cking star wars man, it's not just any old movie, it is THE movie. The movie that once upon a time blew ppl's mind and unsuccessfully has been trying to recreate that again.. don't you wanna see it? maybe they'll get it right this time.
