APB senior, Briana, is a fan of this film. “Out of a scale from 1 to 10 of excitement, I am a 25”. She’s seen every film and is excited that Han Solo, an original Star Wars character, is coming back. “The preview looks cool so of course I am going to watch it,” she added.

Most APB students seem really excited about it while they are some who have never seen any of the films. APB senior Gladys, has never seen a film but is interested in watching them. “I saw some parts of the trailer I don’t really like action movies but it seems cool”. She adds that she isn’t a fan but could be if she watches the other movies.
