Supplemental liability from Hertz for instance might easily cover you.
It ends with Tie fighters flying down a trench on a death star to hit a specific area to blow it up.
In between we have the cantina scene, a Darth Vader character and a rescue from the death star. It's the same movie.

I thought Uber had insurance to cover their drivers.
That is what they say.....not necessarily true!
They do have a $5 million blanket policy, but, sometimes it is difficult to find out what they will cover, and how to reach them. This is one example...look up uber and car insurance on google to find out more.

I was a kid when it came out, so I was probably overly impressed by it. But, the original Star Wars with the first iteration of Dolby Surround (3.1, I believe) and seeing the death star and huge cruises on the big screen really left an impression on me.
If I were 14 or 15, and went to see the new Star Wars, I would think I would be as impressionable as I was with the original.
I enjoyed it! But, it is a reinterpretation of the original in many ways.
Uber has a $5 million blanket policy to cover all their "drivers". I bet it wouldn't be easy to make a claim against them.....they'll probably fight to protect their war chest.

Thanks, snake, you saved me $10.00 by your assessment of the movie being the same as the very first on, episode 4. I'll wait to see it on HBO, whenever that might be.
I think the hype related to Lucasfilm's saga has more to do with what Industrial Light & Magic was able to do with special effects. It's basically a swashbuckler saga, along the lines of Errol Flynn's pirate roles and several others. It was the first movie to use green screens for 90% of the film.
But the new generation of fans have been "brainwashed" by their parents who were the original fans. I can picture the parents of these teens and pre-teens saying to their kids, "...and then Darth Vader used the dark side of the force to manipulate others, but his son ends up loving him..."! It's the parents of these youngins who did more for this new film than the millions of dollars spent on publicity by Disney.

I agree 100%.
I do like those lightening sword things though.

Lucas and Spielberg offer the same sort of movie experiences based on some pretty far out premises. You either like it, or you don't.
What will be fun, is gettng the Blu-Ray and cranking it up in my Home Theater. That's always fun too, with this kind of movie.
Speaking of which, I know some mentioned The Martian. That's a fun movie if you have a Home Theater....as are any of the Marvel Movies.

The Dark Knight is great for Home Theater. I haven't watched it in awhile, but will slot it as another "movie night" to see what it looks like on my Samsung SUHD screen.
BTW...have you seen this yet?

Uninsured and under-insured coverage is fantastic, except that somehow the evil empire has lobbied CA to exclude the wonderful collision deductible waiver from under-insured claims. It is better to be hit by an uninsured driver than an under-insured one if you have the deductible waiver.

So here we have the lovely situation of the victim being screwed out of $12K or having to fight a legal battle, losing the car he loved and bought brand-new, the perpetrator let off the hook as "judgment proof", and the company to whom my friend has been paying premiums for 25 years, low-balling him.
And we wonder why we see a scene on the nightly news with a neighbor being interviewed under the glare of police car lighting: "He was such a nice quiet man. I never thought he'd do something like that..."

I do think there should be a fund...maybe at 3% or 5% to all insurance policies, and establish a fund so no one is out because of an irresponsible moron....and there are lots of them out there!

But even for a garnishment you have to first sue the person who hit you and get a court judgment.
So I guess you could force them into Chapter 7 and try and make their life miserable--but all that doesn't get your car back, and probably not your $12,000 bucks.
When the kids are older, I'll probably spring for a major upgrade.

unless they provide an additional amount for "loss of value" to your car due to an accident that was not your fault. There is sufficient evidence that a car's value drops 20% at trade if it was involved in an accident and repaint.
Fotunately, I haven't had an accident where I lost out yet, but that is really good info to know about.
When we traded in the 2003 Mercedes that was rear ended they gave us an excellent trade in price, even though it was rear ended.

Wonder how someone is driving around without insurance. In NY you can't register a car without proof. My son let his lapse for 75 days and it cost over $1000 in penalties to resolve it.
How about a roll call of insurance requirements from our respective states?

Also so you must carry a minimum of 10,000/20,000 liability + 10,000 PIP (personal injury protection) which is NO FAULT in FL. So the first 10,000 in injuries are paid to you by your own insurance. Above that, the at fault party's insurance is required to pay. But if they carry 10/20K, underinsured/uninsured motorist takes over.

Also, you can insist on "like" transportation in your rental car. The insurance companies will resist. You can tell them to pound sand. You are entitled to "like" transportation. To insurance companies this means the same amount of seats. To me it means AWD, 300+ HP, great handling, good brakes, luxurious appointments. Of course I drive an Audi. If I drove a beater, I'd feel differently.
