You gotta be joking.

Ugh, I don't even know how many of these films exist. I just tune out anything too popular.

I had to wait to go see it until people stopped wearing costumes for it, and there weren't waiting lines that wrapped around the corner.

Good thing I put the smiley in my earlier post...

I saw it and its the first movie I ever got up and walled out of before it was over....... the original is out on Dvd with none of the added stuff and no episode four in the credits.

No way I'm going to pay money to see any movie nowadays. Especially by Disney. Why couldn't they stick with mickey mouse. That was fine but they have no idea what they are getting into. I can't see how anything remotely decent has been made in the last 20 years. I went to see episode 1 and was like "I could have waited for the home release". I don't bother with theaters.

The orginal format of the new star wars IS DIGITAL so even if it WAS put on VHS,you would just be seeing digital video..

Many VHS are digital. The remastered junk and the ones released in digital. Most of the newer ones. The ones (you don't like).

This is incorrect, it was shot on Kodak Film.

Still gonna be digital. This isn't the 70's. No way a new movie is going to be analog.

That was inaccurate, it was shot on film. As to how it will be projected or put on Home Video then yes, it will most likely be Digital unless there is a special showing somewhere with a 35mm projector. Not all that impossible since Tarantino's latest movie was also shot on 70m film and shown in that format in about 100 specially equipped theaters.

I'm sure it contains a lot of Digital effects but J.J. Abrams tried to do as much as possible using the same in camera methods as the original films.

Just in case the smiley faces and subsequent actual literal statements aren't quite enough, my post #15 was a joke, referring back to a post in some other thread about a month or more ago.

Just so things don't get too out of hand...

Thank you Eric.... IT IS STILL DIGITAL FORMAT THOUGH.... (Even though they used film)

Kodak Film was, is and always will be an analog format, whatever they do to it after it leaves the camera is a different matter but we were talking about the source here, not the final product.

Are there parts shot on digital cameras? no doubt, some things just can't be done as well in the physical world, at least not within the budget.
