Well I thoroughly enjoyed it, even though it was essentially a remake of A New Hope, with a touch of empire and ROTJ thrown in.
New cast was impressive, dig the chemistry between the new characters. Harrison Ford killed it, after so many years I was pretty hesitant about whether he could "be" Han again, but he was awesome in it, completely nailed it. Not sure though how much my kids will dig it, it seemed a little suited to the adult audience (which is great for traditional fans). I think there is little to hate about this one, other than originality in the storyline, I think Abrams and Disney played it safe in that respect and most fans will enjoy it. There are a lot of unanswered questions though which hopefully we will start to learn more about in episode VIII, and just like with Empire, I think episode VIII will be pivotal for whether this trilogy has the legs to stand out on its own. TFA does the job of rebooting the franchise and paying fan service, again I thoroughly enjoyed it, hopefully VIII takes us to new places and knocks it out of the park, cause I already can't wait

My wife asked me why I carry a gun?, I said "Decepticons"... She laughed, I laughed, the toaster laughed, I shot the toaster. It was a good day.
