Well, so much for my theory that we weren’t going to see
anymore new Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailers before the
movie opens. This new Japanese trailer is making the rounds, and it’s full of
new footage in a few juicy tidbits to pore over. Watch it below and we’ll get
to the spoiler-y stuff after that.
First off, this is as fantastic as all the other trailers we’ve
seen up to this point. I know there are those of you out there fond of pointing
out that The Phantom Menace had awesome trailers, too, but
watching these, it’s hard not to be moved and chilled and excited as all hell.
This time out, we get to see the first proper introduction between
Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Finn (John Boyega), and this really drives home that
these two are going to be at the center of The Force Awakens.
We also get what appears to be confirmation of a rumor that has been going
around, that Rey’s parents dropped her on the desert planet Jakku for safe
keeping and that she’s been waiting around for them to return, possibly for
quite a while.
There’s a ton to sift through here, and I’m sure many of us
will spend the next few days doing just that. We get more Chewbacca, some
kickass explosions, lots of high action and adventure, a glimpse at C-3PO, more
Leia, a shot of Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) with Leia, a ton of stunning footage,
and much more. This is going to be a lot of fun.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens everywhere
December 18.
