Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002) The narrator calls it "the climactic chapter in the Star Wars saga," which we now know isn't even a little bit true.ħ.It includes a brief, tantalizing glimpse of the Emperor, though without calling any attention to him.It's for TVs, and it aired after Jedi was already playing. It's basically saying: Here's more Star Wars. There are no introductions, and there is no setup. It's also the first trailer with a modern feel. Its call to action is about characters they would know, like Jabba the Hutt and locations like the Death Star. This is a trailer focused squarely on Star Wars fans.

Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi TV spot (1983)
It ends with the canonical logo for The Empire Strikes Back.Ĩ. There's that blue Star Wars logo again - though, through the photographs of characters revealed with window blind effects, it appears to have been reused from the previous trailer. Chewbacca and R2-D2 are the only characters who speak - and they don't say words we can understand. Luke and Vader's lightsabers aren't colored. It is an action movie, after all.Īlso, nearly every shot of this trailer screams danger, from R2-D2 failing to run through a closed door to Chewie screaming his frustration at the disassembled C–3PO Well, that and blaster sounds and explosions. Instead of one walking us through the galaxy, those who cut this trailer focused on characters, John Williams' iconic score and Empire's special effects. There's no narrator - at least until the very end. In this trailer, the action does the talking. Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back theatrical trailer #2 (1980) The iconic Star Wars font logo's font is here - but for some reason it's blue, not yellow.ĩ. Once again, we're treated to the romance angle, which, given what we know now, is a little weird. He wants you to know that Star Wars is continuing, though it's difficult to imagine anyone in the late '70s who didn't know that already. Surely, the narrator knew about Star Wars. Someone almost certainly told the trailer's narrator to act excited - like he was doing voiceover for a classic Hollywood matinee - and he was happy oblige. 
Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back trailer #1 (1979)
When Luke says "I think we took a wrong turn," there's no echo - and certainly no sound bouncing around in surround sound.ġ0. Press play below to see another trailer for the first movie, this time focusing on the actors - none of whom was exactly a Hollywood powerhouse at the time. But when this trailer ran in theaters, its creators needed to explain who he was. Today, Luke Skywalker is a household name. Again, lacking Williams' score, the Stormtrooper's faceplant in the grappling-hook escape scene becomes a lot more hilarious.ġ2. John Williams' score makes this scene intriguing natural sound makes it look silly. David Prowse's disinterested grunt as Vader choke-slams the poor Rebel officer. Darth Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi's lightsabers aren't colored. The Star Wars logo that fades in slowly throughout the entire trailer isn't set in the series' iconic font. It's like a deliberate, if goofy, attempt to give this flick some edge in the drugged-out 1970s. The camera lingering on the interrogation droid's syringe before cutting back to a shocked Leia. When the shock wears off, you can press play again to watch for a few things: Allow us to present that vintage trailer below. But in 1977, when the Star Wars franchise was just a glint on the horizon, 20th Century Fox released a trailer for what wasn't yet known as Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. They look even worse today because modern trailers are often amazing. #STAR WAR FORCE AWAKENS TRAILER 2 MOVIE#
Star Wars' original theatrical teaser (1977)Ī long time ago, in this very galaxy, movie trailers were kind of terrible. ET on the Disney-owned sports network, treat yourself to a sometimes weird, sometimes odd and always interesting collection of Star Wars trailers. So while we all while away the hours until the New York Giants take on the Philadelphia Eagles at 8:30 p.m. They range from terribly awkward to so hype-inducing that they stuck with us through the years like mynocks to a spacecraft. Today, on the day that we'll see the next (and presumably final) full-length Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer, we've corralled some of the best and worst trailers from the distant galaxy that George Lucas created. They've been around since the late 1970s, back when Star Wars wasn't even a franchise. During Monday Night Football, the world will see the premiere of final trailer for Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens. A lot of people who couldn't care less about football will be watching ESPN tonight.
