Didn't read your review AgentK, but from the other reviews it seems I'll just wait until it shows up on Disney+.

Fair, though I would say my feelings on it would be worse if I just watched it at home vs getting the packed theater Star Wars movie "experience" :)

And Mandalorian is awesome. Thoroughly enjoying that one as well.

Yes correct. The only reason I would go to see this movie would be to experience its grandiose in a theater with Atmos sound. So I'm sure it'll be worth the experience, though from the sounds of it, it doesn't move the needle for any depth of story or character development. I have not bothered to see the previous one again since I saw it last year.

The 2.5 hours of IX went by fairly quickly, in my opinion. Appreciated how Abrams attempted to tie up loose ends but also leaving new ones dangling. Overall, I'm happy to be living this lifetime of Star Wars lore & let it continue until I become one with the Force someday!

Just saw it, I'm conflicted. Feel like they kinda ruined star wars, it was good and bad and felt rushed

Was any of the kissing necessary? A hand shake would have been fine.
