Star Wars trailer montage

Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

With all the teasers, trailers, teaser trailers and international edition teaser trailers, I've completely lost count of the number of promo videos Disney has put out for Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Here's a whole bunch of them laid on top of each other though - inspired by that nightmarish 'every episode of Friends at once' video - serving as an intense and overwhelming, if not particularly useful, montage of what lies in store on 18 December.

The Millennium Falcon takes flight as Rey walks the desert as Kylo Ren threatens people with his sophisticated lightsaber as Chewbacca growls, it all building to a mildly terrifying crescendo as the timpani boom.

Star Wars will be pretty much inescapable in the run-up to the release, especially now Google has gotten involved.

The search engine this week gave users the option to choose the Light Side or the Dark Side - altering their browser skin accordingly - and hid a pretty slick Star Wars Easter egg into its search engine.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens in UK cinemas on the 17 December and US cinemas on the 18 December, though the best place to see it first is on a plane over the Atlantic ocean.
