Just how big is this going to be? Reviews have been generally glowing and prognosticators are speculating it might blow away Titanic and Avatar. Wow. Hope Han shoots first in this one.
I think you are being a little harsh. Return of the Jedi, while not that great was pretty decent!After what they did to the last four, I refuse to see it unless everyone in the world tells me it's awesome sauce and completely redeems the whole series.
But judging from the horrible trailers, I see very little chance of that being the case.

+1 I agree. Cool if young but remake if seen originalit was a good movie... but do those plot lines sound familiar?!? I'm not sure I didn't just see Star Wars:The Remake!!!
Why should the movie industry be above the profit motive?Pretty much sums up everything that's wrong with Hollywood and idiot moviegoers in general.
They shouldn't. But we have 800 channels of crap and all the horrid movies we can possibly stand, and they call Master and Commander a failure.Why should the movie industry be above the profit motive?
It was a failure based on the only rubric that matters: return on investment.They shouldn't. But we have 800 channels of crap and all the horrid movies we can possibly stand, and they call Master and Commander a failure.
Star Wars itself was close to a remake...Frankly there were so many blatant plot line parallels between this movie and the original... I.e. the new hero is from a desert planet and is blessed with The Force, a droid carrying an important message that must be delivered and a planet destroying death star. And I can name about a half-dozen more.
