No one is going to (ahem) force you to watch the new Star Wars: The Last Jedi trailer. Some of you want to go in blind and I respect that. But it’ll be hard to avoid the water-cooler talk and everyone just generally screaming about this scene and that moment. So, here are the best reactions to the trailer, with spoilers kept to an absolute minimum, so you can feel involved either way.
From director Rian Johnson to the legions of Star Wars: The Last Jedi fans, everyone has had a say. They all share one thing: excitement.
The best Star Wars trailers have many Leias
All hail Leia.10 October 2017

The dialogue for the #TheLastJedi sounds amazing and real. I was not ready to hear #LukeSkywalker talk. Such an amazing moment #StarWars10 October 2017

We now interrupt this article to bring you PORGS
Are Porgs the new Ewoks? Not sure how I feel about this yet...#TheLastJediTrailer10 October 2017
I would watch an entire movie about Luke Skywalker befriending the Porgs, what is this dramatic nonsense they're trying to sell me.10 October 2017
Porgs. That is all. pic.twitter.com/RxF2oOeEyl10 October 2017
Stop pretending you hate Porgs. You love 'em. They're your favourite thing in fact. Porg Porg Porg Porg. Porg Porg. pic.twitter.com/iQcxpFeuF010 October 2017
I hope that was as vague as possible. Characters from Star Wars are in it - some of them cuddly (and that’s just Luke) - and things happened and some stuff went down. If you really, really don’t want to watch it then I don’t blame you. Going in fresh makes for a better experience, especially as this trailer can be a little heavy on the hint-hint, something big is going to happen between X and Y.
But… If this has got you turning to the Dark Side and wanting to watch the Star Wars: The Last Jedi trailer then go ahead, it's at the top of this article and we won’t tell. Every time you watch it, a Porg gets its wings... or whatever they use to get around.
