I didn't like it for the same reasons I didn't think I would like episodes I and II. I never saw those. Maybe it's because I saw the original 3 so long ago but these new one's just don't have the charm that they had. Everything is CGI now and I'm pretty sure most of the actors, most of the time weren't even in the same state much less same soundstage. The whole thing I found hackish, either purposefully so because of the originals or as a sad attempt to suck dry a legacy. What's up with Darth Vader coming off the assembly table walking like Frankenstein?
Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.
If a hammer doesn't fix it you have an electrical problem.
The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.
Do or do not, there is no "try".
When you shudder at how infinitesimally small you are, remember: space that appears to need nothing, does crave, as a matter of fact, an outside gaze, a criterion of emptiness - of its depth and scope. And it's only you who can do the job.
