STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI Gets A Really Great First Trailer

There's even a pretty nifty looking poster to boot.

Like many of you, I've been itching to get a look at Star Wars: The Last Jedi for quite some time. And, this first trailer didn't disappoint in the slightest.
Of course, there are too many awesome bits to dissect in one, intentionally easy-to-digest post; that said, that won't stop me from quickly discussing the stuff I like in particular. Like how ominous and cryptic Luke's dialogue is (that line at the end of the trailer alone gave me chills). That, above everything else, stood out to me... well, that and this shot at the end.
Fantastic!

Which isn't to say that I was unimpressed by the glimpses of the space battles and the character stuff that wasn't the dynamic between Luke & Rey. In fact, that couldn't be farther from the truth. The action looks undoubtedly thrilling and I'm especially curious to see what directions this movie's going to take Kylo Ren as a character (largely, considering this shot of his mask left in ruins).

Overall, this is a very concise, well-edited trailer that reveals just enough to garner specualtion/hype; yet, not too much to where anything is potentially spoiled. So, basically, it's a modern Star Wars trailer. Hopefully, The Last Jedi will raise the already high bar that Force Awakens and Rogue One set not too long ago. Given what we've already seen here, it looks like that'll be the case. Star Wars: The Last Jedi hits theaters December 15th.
