Clearly you have not seen "Ballistic: Ecks vs Sever" or "Movie 42".  Bad enough to alter your DNA.

The trick with a really bad movie is.....Tequila shots.  If you can get drunk fast enough, then anything is funny. :)

LOL

I had a rather good time at this movie (I could grow a full beard at 12, so I could usually buy beer):

There will be blood in the streets if this thing sucks.
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

This is why I'm going in NOT expecting much.

I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than have my soul crushed again.

Actually, I have very low expectations.  I am more excited about the fact he used 35mm film to film it.

I'll be satisfied if it's a better film than the prequels. I'll be happy if it has that level of quality and feels like the original films. I'll be psyched if it's even better than just a good film that feels like true Star Wars - which would make it probably better than Return of the Jedi.

From what I've seen and heard, I'm expecting to walk out of the theater very happy.

What I've seen so far just makes it look like a rehash of the original film.

Protagonist from a desert planet in the ass-end of space? Check.
Meets a plot-centric main character who gets stranded on said planet? Check.
Meets an older hero of the last generation who plays Mr. Exposition? Check.
Flees said planet with Han Solo on the Millennium Falcon? Check.

They even have a friggen' DEATH STAR on the poster.

It's one thing for them both to follow the same archetype of the Hero's Journey. But this much similarity is a bit of a concern. Now, maybe it won't be once we actually know the context, but it's disconcerting to say the lease.

I have insider information, just take my word on this, this movie is going to be fantastic and could stand on it's own as a great film.  Of course it's about people in conflict and how they act and react, that's what all good adventure stories are.

It goes without saying that it will blow all the box office records out, but it's going to be a great film.

It's not a Death Star, it's a Starkiller.  Completely different! ;)

Not going to be high cinema, but I am cautiously optimistic it's going to be a good Star Wars movie.  Lucas not writing dialogue alone is a major point in its favor.
