Virtually every review says it too.              Young Force user (doesn't know it) on a desert planet ... check       Abandoned young Force user (a la Rebels) ................ check       Lost droid trying to deliver a message .................. check       Criminal hangout palace ................................. check       Jabba the Hutt-style fat slob ........................... check       Old fool who gets killed ................................ check       Planet destroying super-weapon .......................... check       Super-weapon destroyed by "rebels" ...................... check       Baddie Force user in black mask and cape ................ check       Mask-wearing taking orders from baddie hologram ......... check       .       .       .       and the list goes on       .       .       .       Lazy-ass reboot by talentless hack? .....................

I was thinking of the US DVD / Blu-ray release date       (5 April), rather than the iTunes release date (1 April - fittingly       April Fool's Day since the movie was the biggest joke yet on Star Wars       fans).              The DVD / Blu-ray doesn't get released here in New Zealand / Australia       until next week (13 April).              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
