How did we not already have a thread for this one?!

I thought this was a great movie and very nicely transitions the universe to a new generation. There's a few moments where the pacing is a bit off but it's a nice job of resurrecting the events of the first few movies, shown as mostly being forgotten by the general public, and brings it back as something more than just stories.
