I grew up with Star Wars. The first three movies were pretty good. I've never been able to finish any of the other three. The new one doesn't interest me, so I won't be going to see it in the theater.

From what I've observed, the new movie is being very heavily marketed. Facebook now has the option to stick a light saber on your profile picture. The merchandise is all over the larger stores. In my opinion, it's mostly hype due to its prevalence from marketing.
