I am very suprised as my nephews are huge SW fans (or so I thought) and have not even mentioned to me about seeing this movie.  They were dying to see Indy IV, so I took them to see, cause I am a good uncle!  But not a mention about this movie, as they saw a commercial, but they may have moved on from SW, as I am starting to see the difference in this generation and our generation, we were much more loyal to Lucas then the new generation is.  To me, SW was everything as a kid, it defined my childhood, to them it was something cool they were into, just like Pirates of the Caribbean, Spiderman, Transformers, etc.  As Ben Kenobi says in ANH, "move along."

I have to say guys as a SW fan, this is a dark day for me, as this will be the first time in my life that I am going to take a pass from anything Lucas puts out in a GFFA.  As I stated in an earlier post, I was there in '77 as a kid, there in 80, there in 83, hell I even saw the damn Holiday Special over my aunts house in '78!  Was there for the SE in '97, the PT in 99, 02, 05, and bought every DVD & VHS since their inception.  I saw the trailer on TV the other night, and there is no way a person over the age of 12 can enjoy this.  Sorry George, we had a great run together.
