Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens Teaser Trailer Is Up

Gungho Cowboy

I guess you can forgive me for writing about the upcoming Star Wars: Episode VII "The Force Awakens" trailer this weekend rather than putting an after action report or posting the latest and bestest airsoft gun in the market these days. With all those Black Friday and Cyber Monday Sales happening, even outside of the USA, airsoft players sure got their hands full clicking or visiting airsoft shops to get the best deals rather than worry about the weekend skirmish. These super duper deals happen just once a year.

The spoiler: this is not a full trailer but still the first teaser of a series leading up to release of Episode VII which is the first Star Wars movie that is done under Walt Disney Pictures after the company bought the rights to the film series for over US$4 Billion in October 2012. Set for release in December 2015, the production of the movie is being done in the United Kingdom.

What we welcome about Episode VII is that the original team (and their original) is now back: Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher), Hans Solo (Harrison Ford), Chewbacca the Wookiee (played by Peter Mayhew),  C-3PO (played by Anthony Daniels), and R2-D2 (played by Kenny Baker) will be appearing

J.J. Abrams gets the honour of being the director of two of the most influential sci-fi series of all time, as he gets to direct Stars Wars Episode VII after directing the last two Star Trek Movies: Star Trek (2009) and Star Trek Into Darkness (2013).

Watching the trailer, even it's just 88 seconds of it is really good and we're all looking forward to its release late next year. The filming has already been wrapped up, but the production is just halfway through where the magic begins, putting the special effects which are now even better than before. As for the story, it's still very much kept under wraps. But if you really want some unconfirmed tidbits, better head off to Screenrant as they have some compelling guesses about Episode VII.

Here’s the trailer, and may the force be with us next year.
