We’ve already seen some pretty awesome trailers and TV spots for STAR WARS: EPISODE VII – THE FORCE AWAKENS, but you may have missed a few of the other sneak previews that ran on the Disney Channel and other places, and in some of those videos they featured little snippets of footage that were not shown anywhere else. Some folks have been cobbling together several of the trailers and TV spots so you can watch them back to back, but this new “Epic” trailer by YouTube user Alex Luthor takes it up another notch. He’s assembled several of those little snippets of new footage and basically cut together a new trailer that’s worthy of a theater screen. Watch it below and you’ll notice a few things you likely haven’t already seen. Stuff worthy of note here – new shots of Chewbacca shooting Stormtroopers, new scenes of Rey (Daisy Ridley) piloting the Millennium Falcon, new shot of Han Solo giving Rey a weapon, new shot of Carrie Fisher as General Leia, and a few new bits of Finn (John Boyega) using the Falcon turret… let’s just say there’s a lot of great shots in there that look incredible. Tell us your thoughts in the comments. STAR WARS: EPISODE VII – THE FORCE AWAKENS is directed by J.J. Abrams and stars John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Lupita Nyong’o, Gwendoline Christie, Crystal Clarke, Pip Andersen, Domhnall Gleeson, and Max von Sydow.
