The Rise of Skywalker

[qos]

I finally bought a ticket to see "The Rise of Skywalker." I am a first generation Star Wars fan who embraced it with all the passion of my twelve year old heart. Especially -- *because of* -- Princess Leia. Once upon a time I felt a thrill at going to see a new Star Wars movie, now I feel only resignation. Maybe if Carrie Fisher had lived and this truly had been allowed to be "Leia's Movie" I'd be feeling a bit more anticipation. But now all I'm looking for is closure.

"But now all I'm looking for is closure."

Ouch. I do get that, but ouch.

I haven't seen it. Probably will wait until we can watch it at home. I remember going to the theaters 6 or more times each when the original movies came out. I was about 12 at the time, too. And there'd be a peer competition of who saw a movie the most times, because there was no other way to see it but by going to the theater.

See my comments about The Mandalorian on my post. I just don't get excited about new movies in general anymore.
