The theater is dark, people in every row. Popcorn crunches and silent whispers rumble through the room. Not a gloomy face in sight, because everyone awaits a new start to an old wonder. All of a sudden through the inky screen, “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…” The crowd stops it’s chatter, and everyone awaits a new adventure.
This is Star Wars: The Force Awakens. A remarkable movie that adds more to a thrilling series with lightsabers breaking the sound of imagination. It is an attempt to unravel through the minds of science fiction nerds and enter people to an alternate universe for two hours and fifteen minutes.
Even with the questions it leaves unanswered and the feeling they are re-doing a previous Star Wars, the movie still gives its audience a renewed hope for the future of Star Wars and the knowing that Disney has officially bought the series. Young boys all around with Star Wars shoes and Kylo Ren action figures, little girls with Rey dolls and parents ecstatic that their children feel the joy in the series just as they remember in their childhood.
What a wonderful movie, with many new additions and action-packed scenes. It was worth the money and was worth the time. Sad parts and tragic pasts leave this movie giving its audience the emotional fill of a great film.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens came out on December 18, 2015, and was the biggest opening day so far. Star Wars fans flocked to the occasion to see history in the making, as the movie came out for the first time. Parents dressed as old characters to symbolize that the great past will pave the futures new beginning. Kids dressed as new characters to symbolize that there can be new life in old things. Everyone young and old came together to create an enthusiastic audience. And this is why Star Wars is great.
