She says she's seen the three previsions editions of the movie "at least a hundred times each, on video." She says she joined the lineup at about 9:15, three hours before tickets went on sale, because "you wanna go (see the movie) on the first day when everybody's happy and looking forward to it." She says her enthusiasm hasn't been dampened by some of the lukewarm reviews already circulating, "they're not real Star Wars fans." "
