   PH> Hi Jimmy.   
       
   PH> I enjoyed it, brought back memories of being a kid in the 70's and 80's

   PH> feel good stuff in the move and one shocking moment (won't spoil it for   
   PH> you Roger!) but overall they did a good job on it.   
       
   Thanks.  It isn't often I come across that consideration, but I do appreciate   
   it.  We have a 73" (185.4cm) 3-D TV here, so the movie should be worth   
   watching even though I have yet to see anything in an IMAX theater.  I did see   
   2001: A Space Odyssey when it first came out in a state-of-the-art theater and   
   really liked it.  Some guys left before the "Dawn of Man" concluded and didn't   
   even post a comment in the book of the same name in the lobby.  I did.  That   
   was outstanding special effects in 1968 and is the favorite sci-fi film of my   
   favorite movie critic at The Toronto Star -- Peter Howell.  Anyway, everything   
   I've seen that J.J. Abrams was involved in was very good.   
       
   PH> Let's face it the stakes were high to get it right so it's no suprise to   
   PH> me they didn't rock the boat.   
       
   And it's said that Star Wars VIII will be even better.   
       
       
   Regards,

   P.S. Do you know of a Bob King in Christchurch?
