May the force be with you — especially today, if you’re a Star Wars fan. The latest installment, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, has officially hit theaters, and fans wasted no time with their reactions.

Star Wars mania hit the internet in the form of YouTube videos, hilarious GIFs, and even on traffic signs. Yes, several states actually used the Star Wars hype to bring awareness to safe driving. Gotta say: nice touch.

So how did Star Wars lovers feel about the movie? Do we even need to tell you? They were, of course, thrilled with the continuation of the original story.

As with anything that brings people joy, there is someone out there wanting to rain on everyone’s parade. Star Wars is no exception. Some fans who saw the film on opening night were simply not impressed.

But Josh Gad, who’s very close friends with Daisy Ridley, responded to the haters in a heated tweet that also managed to throw shade at Disney. Ballsy move, Gad.

The internet also had some strong yet mixed reactions to Eminem’s new album, Revival. The rapper’s ninth effort was released, leaving critics perplexed. The Guardian gave the album only two stars, saying, “Revival is a train wreck.” Yikes.

Fans, however, didn’t seem to pay attention to the official reviews; they were just thrilled to have new material from Eminem for the first time in four years.

Hey, if the fans like it, that’s all that matters, right?
