We had those watch parties in the 70's. The women would all wear Star Wars watches to the party, and when they came in they would put their watches in a bowl. Then, at the end of the night, the guys would pick the watches out of the bowl and go home with the owner of the watch.
if they were star wars watches,
then maybe it would be ok..

As we get closer to the end of our first project. We figure people will be planning some more Star Wars Parties. So let us know what you have planned.
We plan on holding a private screening for Star Wars, and possibly the whole trilogy in a theater.

With all this talk of actual theaters I don't know if "six people watching a 42" plasma in a basement" constitutes a watch party, but I recently learned that neither my friend's girlfriend nor his roommate have ever seen any Star Wars movie, and since we agree this cannot stand, I'm planning on hosting a few folks for a Harmy marathon in the near future. I'm sure I'll also have people over when your Star Wars is available, maybe do it as a double feature with the Grindhouse ESB.
As far as legitimate theaters go, I'm probably going to bite the SE bullet and go to the AMC marathon unless any of the indie theaters around here end up hosting their own events. Luckily, there's enough underground stuff in Boston that that isn't a completely crazy thing to hope for.
Dammit! I only came into this thread to make a joke about Star Wars wrist watches and you all got there first :-(
VIZ TOP TIPS! - PARENTS. Impress your children by showing them a floppy disk and telling them it’s a 3D model of a save icon.
Anytime a group of people get together to watch Star Wars related movies, it should be a party.
Good to hear, that people still plan these.

Good to see, that people, still, impersonate, William Shatner.
Who is Shatner, and who is impersonating him.
Team Negative1
We're not sure, if serious.

I have a vintage Texas Instruments Star Wars digital wristwatch I plan to wear when I see the new movie. I just hope it still works!
Where were you in '77?

They're always serious.
The TI Wristwatch is one of the best.

A year ago I would have said most likely not. Two years ago I would have been totally against it, out of caution over knowing very little about what direction they were going.
However, A Funny Thing Happened On The Way Top The Forum. After a 30+ year drought of excitement over Star Wars, I became a fan of the film again. As you all know, I'd become an NPR\EU fan only.
Abrams changed everything. Lucas started the process by finally letting go of the franchise entirely, as well as legally. Disney began the rebuild (baseball reference) by assembling a new team. A team of people who care, who can write, who can direct, who can edit, who can design, and who can act.
After the trailers, the leaks, the interviews, etc, I'm very excited for this film. It feels like it did just before Empire came out. The universe is vast and full of possibilities again. Honestly, I'd long since given up hope. It's been a pleasant surprise.
What does this have to do with watch parties? I'm glad you asked. ;-)
I have no current plans for a watch party. That's not really my sort of thing. I'm more of a pre-watcher of the previous season\film\etc to get ready for a premier.
I also live rurally, so the handful of nerd friends I have are far away. I will, however, almost certainly dust of the original film and watch it the weekend prior. I haven't watched it in nearly ten years.
I've also given some thought to what I'll wear to the film. Nothing out of the ordinary, just specific things that are comfortable, such as my favorite pair of desert boots. Fitting in color and texture.
What I haven't decided on yet is some piece of paraphernalia related specifically to the first film. If I had that TI watch, Id be all over it.
