I'm gonna bet Rian Johnson is gonna do something fresh and unique with Ep. 8

I think they had to reel everyone back into Star Wars so something familiar that would appeal to a wide audience was probably the way to go.

And after Star Trek into Darkness I expected no less from Abrams

Speaking of Into Darkness, I told my younger brother to come watch a movie with me. I usually let him pick, though I can veto. He went through the Blue Ray drawer before pulling out Into Darkness. I was so proud. So we are currently watching Into Darkness.

I enjoyed both 2009's Star Trek and Into Darkness, so when I heard Abrams was directing Star Wars, I was much less worried about it. Though ever since Abrams denied that Khan was Into Darkness's villain, I believe nothing he says.

@ajrwdwgirl and @Songbird76 Disney just loaded lunches and dinners for the TH package. They were only booking breakfast until just a bit ago good luck. I just switched our breakfast to dinner

he is no longer my friend.. our relationship is over. I will ask for the divorce


ok, we're friend again.
I honestly felt TFA heavily overhyped.
Just a rehash of 2 of the original movies.

My biggest gripe was that I wished Princess Kylo had of kept the mask on. Once that came off he just seemed like a sulky kid

I did too!

I'm a much bigger Star Wars fan over Star Trek...but I liked those movies.

It helps when the director actually loves the IP - it shows most of the time in the products.

I've had the same issue...accidently double posted somewhere else because it just froze.

I've had issues on this sight. Today. I can post now. Everything was really jumpy.

It's definitely better now! For a little bit I was having trouble.

I actually have my eyes on the Solo and Rogue one movies than the next episodes.
Hopefully TFA was just a "taste" and a introduction to the new heroes. A proper introduction than the awful prequels.

Actually, I didn't make it to any of the kiosks for food. I just wasn't in the mood for the menus I saw while passing by, (I'm tempermental about food, and also if it's hot outside, I don't like eating outdoors--no appetite). I was also there one evening, but since I had already eaten a few hours before that, I didn't try anything at a kiosk.

A meal I also enjoyed was the breakfast at Picabu (cafeteria style restaurant) over in the Dolphin. They had best bacon I've had in a long time!!! The scrambled eggs, potatoes and toast were good, but that bacon was awesome!!!

Another good meal was at the QS at the France Pavilion. I had the toasted Croque Monsieur, a soda, and chocolate mousse. It was all very tasty!!

My favorite place in Epcot. Hubby and I share the elephant ear, I do the plain side hubby does the chocolate side.

I'm surprised the word prequels didn't get picked up by the censor machine ******

Actually I didn't mind them as a kid...and it definitely built the Star Wars world out like with all the awesome planets...just the senate meetings...zzzz

technically he was not the main villain. but an indirect victim seeking revenge (of the darn Admiral and his fixation with the klingdon).
Speaking of which.. what a waste to see the USS VENGEANCE destroyed. It would have worked wonders for the usual "dangers" of the space)

I think Kylo was the worst part of the whole movie.. Worse than the prequels anakin D:

Hahaaa...!

[donaldtoo]

Out for me, have a great evening! We are going to see the youngest grand son in his school play. That will be fun. I love kids!

Hope y'all had fun!
What was the play about...?

 

[donaldtoo]

Today I got ice cream at Ben and Jerry's. It was $5.25 for a "small" and $5.75 for a "large". I opted for the latter in a waffle cone (for an additional $1.00).

But it was sooo yummy!

Woof! It darn well better be sooo yummy for that price...!!!

 

[donaldtoo]

chifu!

Hahaaa...!
I actually almost typed that instead, but, "toficken" just had a better ring to it, to me...!!!

Beautiful, @MOXOMUMD, I needed this picture today.

 

[donaldtoo]

Fort Laurendale -> St Maarten -> San Juan -> Labadee

I believe those are the same ports of call my folks went to on one of their RC cruises, and they loved it!
Have a blast...!

I'm almost afraid to say. It was a spoof of Disney characters. So funny. I loved it. I love a good joke. Heck, I joke about myself a lot. Snow white and the 7 dwarf's were so funny, out of 4th graders. I laughed my head off . The evil queen was on trial for murder. I don't know how the director did it, but he made fun of all the character's. Everyone laughed and laughed. I'ts the best thing I have ever seen out of fourth graders.!
