UPDATED: Now with more poster!
ORIGINAL POST: Now that we’re getting a movie every year or so, plus the upcoming streaming shows and the glut of books and comics and other media, it’s a bit less special, but I will never not be excited for Star Wars movie. And the final trailer for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker hits me in all the feelings places. Check it out for yourself below.
“I’m just so tired of all these Star Wars.” Okay, I’m not,
not at all. Nor did I have the titular line in Star Wars,
which has always chaffed. We’re now less than a month away from Star Wars: The Last Jedi, which I’m rather jazzed for. And just in case we
didn’t already know that, we’re at the point where Lucasfilm is beating us
about the head, neck, and face with promotional material. This includes a bunch
of new TV spots.
I know people worry that now Disney owns Lucasfilm and they’re
churning out an endless parade of Star Wars films, among
other material, they’ll star to lose their magic and become commonplace, like
superhero movies. And I know we’re only a few movies deep into the global
takeover, but hot damn, we haven’t reached Star Wars fatigue
yet. And as of right now, I continue to get chills every single time I watch
new Star Wars footage, including this new behind-the-scenes
video from Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
By now you’ve probably watched the new Star Wars: The Last Jedi trailer, whether Rian Johnson wants you to or not,
ordered your opening day tickets, and plowed head first into the Great Porg
Debate of 2017. (Love them or hate them, they’re the new Ewoks, and your stance
on the adorable little bastards will define who you are for generations to
come.) But what the hell, why not watch the trailer again?
Movie fans, and really even non-movie fans, around the world
are all kinds of amped up about the upcoming Star Wars: The Force Awakens. It’s to the point where we’re pouring over every frame of
the most recent trailer, examining any toy or coloring book we can get our
hands on, and reading into every last image trying to glean any possible nugget
of information. Lucasfilm just released a handful of new character posters, and
while they don’t reveal much in the way of information, they are damn cool.
I don’t know if you’re aware, but there’s a new Star
Wars movie on the way—it’s kind of a big deal. Well, Star Wars: The Force Awakens dropped a new trailer last night, and I can
still barely make words. Just watch it for yourself, that’s what I’m going to
do, again. And probably again after that.
