The other day I found myself wondering "Why am I so eager to see this movie?"
Of course there's The Cross Bladed Lightsaber, Kylo Ren (the cool new bad guy), the First Order, the First Order Stormtroopers, Poe Dameron's sweet looking X-Wing, Rey, and Captain Phasma. Not to mention we get Luke, Leia, Han and Chewie back on the big screen. All of that is cool and all but why such anticipation? The prequels drew some excitement but not like this. Then it hit me. It's because this is the movie I've been waiting for since 1983. After Return of the Jedi I wanted more. I wanted to know "What happens next?" But there was nothing. Then when the prequels came out that was something, and it was exciting, but that's the before story. I already knew the outcome. Sure it was cool to see how it got there, how it came to be, but this, this is the new story. This is the Next One!!! It's episode VII!!!! And, that leads to episode VIII then episode IX. So that's it. It's the movie I've been waiting to see for 32 years. So bring it on. Star Wars: The Force Awakens I'm waiting for you.
How about you are you waiting with anticipation for the new Star Wars: The Force Awakens?
