Anyone else theater was full of guys clapping and shoutting at the end of the star wars movie premiere?
This was not even america
This is literally JUST the type of rehash I was expecting, it's nothing but a glib facsimile.
If Star Wars was all I had access to as a child in terms of sci-fi I probably would become one of those crazy fanboys, but thankfully I had access to anime from very early on in my youth years that my mental balance is very stable.
Seriously, if you have watched Akira, you'd realize just how sophisticated anime is and it blows away anything Star Wars would have to offer.
A lot of people mention Ghost In The Shell, which has just enough of sexuality in the mix to draw in the western audience I suppose but I must say that Ghost In The Shell is not even in my top 10 anime, not even close, that's just how deep the world of anime is.
Some anime is so disturbingly mature like Fractale that I wish it would challenge the system and submit it as a Drama category in the Oscars just to bitchslap the snotty Academy.
It's not just the level of maturity and sophistication anime has, it's also quite original, entertaining, and visually fantastic. I would regard anime as the highest form of cinema art-form.
But hey, me preaching about anime won't do you any good, you gotta go out and see it for yourself just how much you are missing.
The recent one I would recommend to check out is Sword Art Online which is light and easy to get into anime for the first time yet appreciate it as much, but if you want the heavy stuff right off the line check out Guilty Crown in which the plot is so complex and twisted that you'll need extra oxygen pumped into your brain in order to comprehend everything, and if you want amazing visuals and a gripping drama that also has awesome mecha battles Aldnoah.Zero is the shit.
Seriously, if you know anime like I do, Star Wars looks like it's something for kids.
Watched it in Paris.
There were clappings at the LucasFilm logo, the Falcon on Jakku, Han Solo first appearance, Luke scene and ending credits.
watched it in new york, there was thunderous clapping after every line uttered by the character

At least you weren't shot
I watched it in Mexico
Mexicans love Star Wars

There's nothing wrong with clapping in a movie theater.
Going to see it tomorrow at noon. Sadly it's winter break here in the US. People here clapped and cheered at The Hobbit so I can only expect people shooting guns off into the ceiling.
I love Texas.

Because Han shot first
>>63744256
de que parte eres, anon?
Ausfag here, went to midnight premiere
Never once had a cinema clap or cheer
Not in LotR
Not in the avengers
Not in HP: The Deathly Hallows P2
Not in TKDR
But they cheered not only at the ending, but also during the opening, Falcon reveal, the han reveal and the R2D2 reveal
>>63744195
I just don't understand...
You're so happy to see some pictures moving in front of you that you have to slap your hand on the other one to evacuate the joy.
What are we? seals?
>>63744348
What I'm getting from this is that you see a lot of shit movies in cinema(LotR excepted)
>>63744168
same here in germany
>>63744404
Maybe they're clapping for the guy in the projection booth for delivering these images unto them?
>Clapping is not a thing in Russia
Feels good
>>63744410
Well I'm not a poorby faggot so yes I usually go the cinema to see big mainstream movies If I think they'll at least be entertaining
>>63744187
>LOL ANIME MURICANS LELELELELE
>>63744328
mow my lawn

>Seriously, if you know anime like I do, Star Wars looks like it's something for kids.
While this is clearly pasta, yes. Star Wars IS something for kids (or supposed to be). Who ever argued otherwise?
>>63744168
Just saw in Aus, Imax. Clapping at start and end. Also some noises at Han and chewie.
That happened for me and I literally was shouting "shut the fuck up" with my mate, it was horrible. This is Australia, not America
>>63744168
Amerifag here, seeing it tonight. I'll probably kill myself with all the applause. There might even be people who stand up.
>Watch from Australia
>Trailers finish, lights go out
>Everyone clapping, hear people saying "It's time, woooo"
>Suddenly develop a strong urge to yell out a /tv/ star wars meme e.g NOW THIS IS PODRACING, AROUND THE SURVIVORS A PERIMETER CREATE
>Be beta
>Hummed this instead https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5ZY8Fz9GGU
>>63744563
Are you in Melbourne by any chance

>I literally was shouting "shut the fuck up" with my mate
That's pretty autistic mate
man why am I on this website
I have a job
I have a degree
I have a girlfriend
I have a house and a car
I have friends
People like me in real life
Women smile at me for no reason
It's only on this website the vitriol comes out of me, and I think it's because I'm surrounded by idiots trying to talk about movies here.
I'm not going to be here tomorrow. I've forgotten what I have in common with you retards, and I don't feel like remembering.
>euroclaps
>>63744597
I know, but it was so infuriating to have people clapping and screaming because Han Solo walked on screen.
>I live in Australia not clapland
>>63744599
See you tomorrow.
>>63744481
Bullshit.
t.Russian
>>63744348
