Star Wars Original Trilogy Trailers Redone in The Force Awakens Style
I think that one of the unsung heroes of Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens was the guys who cut together the trailer. It got people hyped for the movie while giving almost nothing away apart from who was in the movie. In a day and age when movie trailers are closer to two-minute synopses of the movies they’re supposed to be previewing, The Force Awakens might have had one of the best trailers in recent memory.
Since The Force Awakens is getting comparisons to the original trilogy, YouTuber Tom F decided to flip the script. He recut trailers for the original Star Wars trilogy in the style of The Force Awakens’s trailer. The result is pretty good, especially Empire’s.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Character Posters Unveiled
We’re just six weeks away from the premiere of Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens. From the time this post went up to the earliest EST showings at 7:00 PM on December 17th, that’s only 1,018 hours. It’s not like I’m counting down but I’m keeping a close eye on the ever slowing movement of my clock and calendar.
Anyway, to celebrate the six weeks remaining mark, Disney has unveiled five new character posters featuring Leia, Han, Rey, Finn and Kylo Ren. All five have their right eyes covered in the posters. I wonder if that’s foreshadowing something.
