There's plenty of thrilling Star Wars imagery to be found-are those AT-ATs looming in the far distance?-but what's perhaps most notable is that no one is having any fun.
Take another look at that *Jedi *trailer, if you haven't watched it a hundred times already.
And now, with the premiere of the first trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, we have a good idea where director Rian Johnson is taking us: Straight to the dark side-and right on schedule. Many even guessed, rightfully so, that Han Solo wasn't going to make it to Episode VIII. Before *The Force Awakens *was released in 2015, it was clear that the new trilogy would be an inter-generational hand-off from the original *Star Wars *team to the young Jakku-cuties taking their lead. We've always *kind of *known where the modern Star Wars movies were heading: When George Lucas launched the prequel trilogy with 1999's The Phantom Menace, viewers were well aware that it would include Anakin Skywalker's turn to the dark side and Luke and Leia's birth (though none of us could have predicted its forceful anti-sand message).
