Watch Kevin Smith’s Reaction to the STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS Trailer

I don’t know about you, but over Thanksgiving weekend all anyone I was hanging out with was talking about was that amazing trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Fans were picking it apart, creating fan art, and creating parody vides that you can watch here and here.

As you know, Kevin Smith is a huge fan of the franchise, and it seems like a lot of people value his opinion. Thanks to The Comlink, we have a video from the filmmaker in which he shares his feelings about what he had seen. One of the things he said was:

“I was really taken back to that moment. I remember sitting there watching the trailer for Empire Strikes Back and being electrified, being overjoyed. The cynicism and crap that comes along with being a fat, middle-aged man goes away in the face of [the Star Wars: The Force Awakens] trailer. At least it did for me, man. That’s the best thing I can say about it is it took me back to that moment in my youth.”

Like the rest of us, he’s excited to see more. “Hopefully we’ll get to see Chewie. And Han. And Leia. And Luke,” he says. “And I know I’m pushing it, but maybe Lando?”

I’m sure there are going to be some fun surprises revealed between now and when the movie is actually released on December 18th, 2015. In the meantime we’ll just have to enjoy what we’ve got… over and over and over again.
