Nerds of the world, rejoice. The new Star Wars trailer is among us and it looks fucking amazing. Despite initial apprehension around the Star Trek director and lens-flare specialist JJ Abrams taking creative-control of the franchise, this trailer has dispelled any concerns for now.
There still isn't any substantial plot-line detail given and about a thousand unanswered questions like, why is the Empire back? Who is that Stormtrooper that is also a Jedi? Why does Twitter think the film is an attack on white people? And where's Jar Jar Binks?
It’s an intense three minutes and in the several hours it's been live, the internet has been thrown a whirlwind of hype and flagrant emoji spamming. Check out what the world of music has been saying about this new trailer. The Force Awakens is released 18 December.
Fuuuuuuck's sake this looks good https://t.co/6uw54mLqlm

@TheOrlandoJones Star Wars has always been diverse anyway, Jawas, Ewoks, Wookies, white people, droids and Lando Calrissian.
