    Clearly, the spin-off films are not nearly as important as the ST. Those are the main pieces of the Star Wars puzzle, whereas these spin-offs are just nice little bonuses for us, the fans. What I'm interested in is this: How does everyone plan on watching these movies?

    I'll probably see some on opening day and others I'll be able to wait a little longer. I'll definitely see all of them in the theater but there's bound to be some I'm not as interested in so I'll decide as I go.

    We don't know what the spinoffs will be about, so I wouldn't say they're less important than the ST. The first spinoff could lead in to Episode VIII for all we know.

    I'll go see it in theaters. Star Wars is the ONLY franchise I'm down to shell out $30-$40 on at this point in my life.

    I voted other. It depends on who the character is, who is making it *director, cast, ect*, and how the reviews *both fans and critics* are

    I don't like going to movies opening day. I like to wait a few weeks. Movie crowds suck.

    What Captain Tom Coughlin said, on both counts. Depending on what the spin-off is about, I may not go see it at all. Case in point: "Ahsoka Tano: the movie", "Mara Jade: the movie" or "Trench: the movie" will not get my money.

    And for a movie I do want to see, I doubt I'll go opening day.

    You're kidding, right? I had a great time on opening day for the PT films. I think I saw the OT films all on opening day, too, but I was young, so don't remember for sure.

    I voted opening day but that might not happen... If I have to wait I will but it won't be because I wanted to avoid crowds...

    Not at all, I like to wait until the crowds die down.

    I'll see them in theaters, but only if I have disposable income to do so, and only after the crowds have gone...heck, I'd see them in the dollar theater if I had to and not feel any worse about it.

    That said, I'd be fine waiting until they come out on DVD and renting it from Redbox. :p

    Okay, that's cool if that's your preference. Personally, I think seeing Yoda ignite a lightsaber in AOTC in front of a theater full of fans > seeing Yoda ignite a lightsaber in AOTC in front of an empty theater.

    I'll be seeing everyone SW from now on at my local IMAX. I want the BIG screen!
    I'll be going to see them on the first showing day if I can.
    I don't care if the spin off is jar jar blimming binks.... If its Star Wars I will see!

    voted for a few days after only because opening day is usually a weekday, I have a regular day job, and I don't pay full price if I can avoid it. So, likely I will see it the first or second weekend, likely the first showing of the day. Sure I expect there to still be a good crowd, but that's fine. I get as much enjoyment from audience reaction as I do from the movie.

    In theaters opening day, and then again probably two weeks later. That's what I do with the Episodes.

    Spin offs eh? Some I will see on opening night dependent on main character. Some I will see after the crowds die down, dependent on main character. I will see all the others (and the ones I have already seen in the theatre) on DVD as soon as they are added to my collection.

    How do you plan on seeing the spin-offs?

    Before I die, I want to look upon it with my own eyes.

    Somebody, help me take my mask off...
