We've seen most of the Star Wars movies - the last few were awful. Hubby has no desire to go see this new one; I put it on the Netflix list, but am not in any hurry to see it.
Then again
FearlessLeader has gone to see it 3 times already (she's rather fond of Harrison Ford, I think).
I just read a bit about the 7 ft tall basketball player from Finland who got tapped to play inside the (big furry) Chewbacca costume, because the 7 ft 2 British fellow Peter Mayhew who plays him is quite elderly at this point, so they needed somebody younger who was that tall with blue eyes (and also is blond and gorgeous - ahem) to do the more active Chewbacca scenes.
