We have Imax tickets on Wed (12/17) at 10:00. Going with my whole family and a friend (former pea!) and her whole family. We have 2 chorus concerts and a wrestling match to get through earlier that evening so thankfully my friend and her family are going to wait in line to get us all good seats.

DD is specifically coming home early for Christmas to go see it Thursday night with DH. The two of them are fanatics. When the original 3 came out, DH saw each one, at the theatre, at least 6 times, lol. He's getting all worked up about this one! Me? I'm not so into them. I'll stay home and cuddle with the dog that night.
That day is also DD's birthday.

We are going with some friends on the 19th. We've had tickets for weeks. Very excited!
We are re-watching all the old ones leading up to next weekend. DS age 10 is gaining a whole new appreciation of the old movies and cannot wait for the new one.

DH and the kids have tickets for the 21st. DS got the tickets from school. The senior team rented out a theater and sold tickets to the seniors. They are having a huge raffle before the movie for star wars merchandise from a local comic book store.
I'm not going, after how very bad episodes 1, 2, and 3 were I'm a little scared for the franchise. I want it to be good.

A week from today with my entire company. My boss bought us tickets a while ago. And we were just recently gifted light sabers to bring with us to the theater!

We have tickets for the 21st, IMAX "experience" but D/H just informed me he has to work. Apparently we can exchange them so we will see if any decent seats are left on another date. So excited!

We have tickets for the 20th. DS insisted on purchasing the tickets as he didn't trust me to get the "right" seats. He then sent a text asking if I was interested in going to the 5:15am show. Umm...no! So 10:15am it is.

Got tickets for the 17th at 7:00 PM.
My DS16 was such a HUGE fan when he was 4-5 years old. I think I'm way more excited than he is now that he's a cool teenager, but I'm hoping this will rekindle a bit of the magic of his youth.
He told me we're not allowed to bring his lightsaber collection with us. . .

So excited! My elf is going to dress up as a storm trooper & hold a sign that says "the force awakens tonight"

My dh, two sons and I are going on Saturday 12/19/15 at 12:30 pm and we're so excited.
Tonight we're going to start watching the other six Star Wars movies in chronological order. My oldest son is a Star Wars fanatic and has pretty much worn a Star Wars t-shirt everyday for the last 5 or so years! He became hooked on the Clone wars when he was younger.

I'm so excited!
We have reserved seats for opening night. Me, DH, our boys, and a family we are friends with that has 5 kids. We have 2 full rows of the theatre reserved.
I insisted on the reserved seat tickets. My littles can't stand in line for hours for seats before we watch the movie.

Got tickets for the 17th at 7pm. Going with the BF and about 8 other friends. We have all been discussing what time to get in line. Right now the consensus is 3pm, but we have a friend that is going to stop by the theater and ask what time they think people will be showing up (others may have asked the same thing).

The reserved seats around here sold out immediately. DH kept trying to get them, and finally had to settle for general seating. |

What type of business is your company? We are going sometime the week of Christmas. We didn't want to have to deal with the madness of opening night and I work that weekend. So excited though, it will be hard to wait. DH's birthday is the 22nd, so maybe that night. |

I'm going on Saturday with SO. We have tickets for a 1245 show. They are running shows every thirty minutes in 13 of 15 theatres.
It occurs to me that I'm not sure how parking will be! Our show is sold out, and I don't think they have enough spaces if every theatre is full. So, I'm hoping for good weather so that we can take the bus and walk.

We have reserved recliner seating on the 20th in our newly upgraded local theater. I got the tickets when they first went on sale. Both kids will be home for the holidays by then, so we're all going. I'm so excited!

I may be kicked off the board for this but I've never watched any Star Wars movies. Back when I was 15 i went out on a date with a guy to one at the theater but I fell asleep before it started lol!
DH is excited for the new one and wants to go see it though.

My family is all flutter. There are storm troopers attacking the Christmas village. They are wearing Star Wars shirts daily. We were going to buy reserved seats at the IMAX but decided to wait and try and get in to an afternoon show once the initial chaos dies down. We are died in the wool fans. DS17 middle name is Anakin. Yep, we've got it bad.
