Online ticket seller Fandango reports the film has broken their record for the most tickets sold for any film during its entire theatrical run.

The force is strong, very strong with the latest installment in the Star Wars series, at least according to fans in Winnipeg.

Matt Shavers, who was among the San Antonio fans, compared “Star Wars” to going to church. They laughed and cheered and gasped together, illuminating their sabers in the theater during key scenes.

Hollywood legend Harrison Ford has revealed how he injured himself on the set of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”.

“But there are literally thousands of tickets available for this weekend, and Irish exhibitors have a lot of flexibility in terms of capacity and increasing the number of shows based on demand”.

The force led Megan Thompson and Anthony Nygren to their destiny, as they said “I do”, or rather, “as you wish”. Michael Danke of Los Angeles, who said his friend waited in line for 52 hours for their tickets, was disappointed.

Disney said in August it plans to build “Star Wars” lands at its California Disneyland and Florida Walt Disney World parks, with new attractions celebrating the franchise.

“It’s definitely worth all the hype”, Tiny Harris said.

But, Allison says she was hooked after getting sick and watching all of the Star Wars franchise movies during Spring Break.

“It’s something that I get to do with my family again tonight, so it makes it more than just a movie.it makes it a moment for me and my family”, said Palmer.
